‘The next morning, | finally met with my father for the first ime. Not in a state of dire stress or danger, but instead Breakfast.

Enzo and | walked into the large dining room together to see a long chestnut table, at one end of which was a stunning array of fragrant breakfast foods, brightly colored fruits, and steaming cups of coffee. My father was sitting at the chair at the end of the table, and stood when we: entered. Without a word, he simply held his arms out for me and walked up to me, pulling me in for a tight hug before | could even say anything I felt a bit tense being hugged by this man who | hardly knew, despite the fact that he was my biological father, and when we pulled away | stammered to come up with something to say.

"I know it's a lot to process,” my dad said. "Let's eat instead of trying to figure it all out.” He stepped out of the way and gestured for Enzo and | to sit at the table, and we did. Enzo sat beside me, his hand resting firmly on my thigh undemeath the tablecloth We ate in silence for a couple of minutes. The food was delicious and

warm, and as | ate | realized how starving was after sleeping for two days. There was an array of warm pancakes and fresh fruit, juicy sausages and crispy bacon, steaming hot potatoes and bitter coffee; | ate all of those things and more, and my stomach still didn't feel full.

thought to myself that if | could eat like this forever, | would. And | had lost so much weight lately with everything going on that no one batted an eye at my voracious appetite.

But at the same time, it almost felt wrong to be eating at the moment My twin sister had just died brutally, and although | hardly knew her and most of our interactions were filled with her evil nature that was caused by the Luna's manipulation, | stil felt oddly empty. She was my twin, after all, and we had a strong magical bond.

"Um..." | set my fork down and swallowed, feeling my face go red "Selena..." My father did the same. | could see his hands gripping the edge of the table so tightly that his knuckles were white, and he stared numbly down at his plate. "There will be a funeral," he said, his voice low and strained." Tomorrow. | hope you'll come." I nodded. "Of course," | replied.

My father seemed pleased by this, and offered me a weak smile. He looked over at Enzo then, who sat stolidly beside me. *I know that Selena was a lot of trouble," my father said quietly as he leaned back in his chair. "| hope you can understand that the Luna... My wife... Was a practitioner of old magic. She came from a lineage of witches mixed with werewolves, and her powers were unparalleled. | never wanted to marry her. She ruined my family... She was the one who hired the Crescents that killed your mother and stole you, Nina." He looked at me then, and his eyes were full of sadness. "After that, she sank her claws in. For twenty years, your sister and | have been puppets because of her powerful magic.

It all made sense now; the Luna was behind everything. From the beginning, she had a card in the game. | was certain that there was so much more to learn, but right now, | had more pressing questions for my father.

"My mother," | said, "what was she like?" As | spoke of my mother, my father's eyes lit up. A soft smile spread across his lips, and he tilted his head back slightly to look up at the ceiling. "Her name was Ophelia," he said, his voice sounding almost dreamy. "She looked just like you. You and Selena could have been photocopies of her. Except for you... You got my brown eyes." My father's words made me smile. Selena's blue eyes belonged to our mother. | was glad to have had the chance to experience those eyes before Selena sacrificed her life.

"Was Selena like her in any other ways?" | asked, to which my father nodded vigorously.

"Oh, yes," he said with a grin. "The Luna's magic was strong, but Selena's true nature came out sometimes. She was sweet and innocent. Alittle naive at times, but bravely intelligent nonetheless. | wish that you could have had the chance to see more of that side of her..." I'shook my head. "| saw it," | said. "A few times. | could tell that it was in there somewhere." As | spoke, | felt Enzo's hand tighten slightly around my thigh. When | looked over at him, his eyes were soft and understanding. When Selena was alive, after we tumed her into a human, he never really believed me when | said that Selena had some good inside of her, and | still didn't blame him for that. But now, | could tell that he saw the truth: that she was just a little girl who was manipulated by an evil stepmother.

After that, it tumed out that my father had a lot of questions. | explained everything to him, everything that he had missed over the past twenty years while he was under the Luna's spell: the rise of the Crescents, the Luna's negative effect on the werewolf realm, Selena’s plan to take

Enzo from me, and everything else about my life. told him about my adoptive mother, my brother and his curse, and | told him about my friends and my career. By the end of it all, it had somehow gotten well into the afternoon. | didn't realize it at the time, but we had been talking for hours upon hours at that table.

Finally, my father stood. His face was grim, but happy nonetheless.

"I'l let you rest until tomorrow," he said. "After the funeral, | have some more questions for you; but let's wait until then to talk mre(ynfarturitely, I've gothufed 4 ot of work to do.

second late wife's shenanigans."

For the first time during that entire conversation, Enzo suddenly spoke.

"If you need any help, I'd be happy to be of service, sir," Enzo said

My father's eyes widened slightly. He nodded, clapping Enzo on the shoulder. He held Enzg's sho! firmly ag hgyjaoked dt ONAN oFyb; son, is to take good care of my remaining daughter," my father said, his voice firm. "Devote yourself to her, and make sure that nothing

Before my father left, he suddenly pulled me in for another tight hug And that time, | hugged him back.
