Chapter 86: The Whole Truth

Enzo

When Nina first suggested that I tell my team about my true nature, I thought she was utterly insane.

But as I lay awake that night, staring at the ceiling and trying to figure out how I was going to both explain Lisa’s sudden appearance as well as keep her from shifting in front of everyone or telling the truth herself, I realized that Nina was right.

I had known most of my teammates for that entire time, and considered many of them to be my closest friends… And now, with Justin gone because of his werewolf curse, I knew it was only right to tell them.

I just hoped that they would believe me, and that I could trust them not to tell a soul about this.

I woke up first thing in the morning, just after dawn. Lisa was still soundly asleep under the dazing spell I had put on her, and would remain asleep for the next few hours which meant that I had enough time to figure out the best way to tell my team about werewolves.

By the time I got dressed and headed downstairs, Jason and his team were already awake and were getting ready to leave.
