"I need to tell you something before we go in," I said solemnly to Odessa as we stood outside the gates of the Blood Oak pack.
She glanced at me wearily, arching an eyebrow before she asked. "Uh, okay. What's that?"
I took a few steps forward, causing her to tense up as she stared at me with growing confusion.
When my mouth was finally a few inches away from her ear, I finally spoke what was in my mind.
"Under no circumstances can anyone find out about your... True heritage."
I felt how her body stiffened after I said that but I was sure she understood why I was saying it.
A werewolf and a witch hybrid was seen as an aberration of the natural order and hated by both races.
There haven't been any true hybrids seen in over a century or so. If Odessa truly had a werewolf side... Then her life was in danger and she might not only be threatened by the werewolves but also her fellow witches and humans.
