I slowly opened my eyes at the sound of a loud bang followed by a few swears and some laughs. I groaned and pulled the cover over my head. “Why do people have to be loud in the morning?” I mumbled for myself before I remembered that I wasn’t in my apartment, and it wasn’t the loud neighbors downstairs that was making all that noise. As I realized this everything that had happened yesterday came back to me, making me sit straight up and place my hand on my cheek where I had been cut. Nothing... not any wound or scar, just my smooth skin. I lifted the shirt I was wearing and looked at my stomach, nothing there either, not a single mark. Was it all a dream? Maybe everything that happened yesterday wasn’t real…
But in that case, Why am I in a strange bedroom? And why am I wearing strange clothes? I thought as I tugged on the oversized shirt I was wearing. All these questions made me confused, and what was making me even more confused is why I wasn’t freaking out. Any sane person would freak out if they woke up in a strange bedroom wearing strange clothes. But for some weird reason, I felt safe, like nothing could hurt me here. And I realized that I had felt that exact feeling before.
My confusing thoughts were interrupted as I heard a soft knock on the door followed by a very familiar voice, “Are you awake?” Before I could say anything the door opened and there he was, the man behind the voice. I couldn’t really focus on what he looked like, which was odd since I was looking at him, but as fast as his eyes met mine I couldn’t look away. I got that feeling again, that everything would be okay and that nothing would hurt me as long as he was here. “Good morning, did you have a nice sleep?” He spoke softly, like he was talking to a scared child. I didn’t trust my voice so I just nodded as he approached the bed holding a tray with -what looked like- freshly made pancakes.
He was tall and muscular with a cute face that did not match his voice or body. His brown, curly hair complimented his big eyes, his full lips (that I distinctly remembered pressing against me cheek and forehead) were pulled up in a heart melting grin that made it impossible for me not to smile back. His dark voice interrupted my thoughts, “You’re staring at me.” He pointed out and his grin got even bigger. “I’m not complaining.” He added when I looked away. I took a deep breath, trying to collect my thoughts and think of a logical question -even though nothing seemed logical right now. “What happened yesterday?” I finally asked, straight forward, and looked up at him, it felt like I got a slap in the face when I saw that his smile had faded. “Eat first then I’ll promise that I’ll tell you everything.” He said with a small smile and put down the tray next to me in the bed.
I looked at the pancakes and puffed my cheeks. They looked absolutely delicious but I shouldn’t accept food from strangers, I mean what if they were filled with drugs or poison. But on the other hand, if he wanted to kill me he would’ve done it by now, my stomach seemed to agree with that thought so I took a small, causes bite and I thought I was going to melt, “Oh my god, this is the best pancakes I’ve ever had.” I blurted out as I took another bite, I could hear him chuckling at my actions.
While I was eating I could feel that he was looking at me the whole time and I noticed that I couldn’t help but to peak at him a few times.

Once I was done I put down the plate and looked at him, raising my eyebrows. He put away the tray on the bedside table and took a deep breath before facing me. “I guess you would like to know what happened.” He said, giving me a concerned look, like it would hurt me to know what actually happened. “Like you promised” I reminded him with a nod. He sighed and sat back down on the bed again. “Before I start I just want you to know that I would never hurt you,” I said softly. “I know, that’s what confusing me,” I said as I played with the hem of the shirt I was wearing, “I just met you, I don’t even know your name, and I have no idea how you know mine, but I still feel safe around you.” I shook my head in frustration. He gave me a soft smile as he reached out and grabbed my hand, preventing me from fiddling with the shirt and making me look at him. “I know, I’m going to explain everything right now, and you do know my name, don’t you?” I gave him a confused look right before a memory flashed in my head, Chanyeol please try to calm her down, I remembered someone saying. “Chanyeol…” I mumbled and looked at him, he just smiled and nodded.
“So now that that’s cleared out it’s time for me to start.” He took a deep breath and I could tell that he was nervous so I lightly squeezed his hand and gave him a smile. “First of all, do you remember what happened three days ago?” I gave him a confused look. “Oh I should probably tell you that you’ve been unconscious for three days.” He added. I realized how softly he was speaking, like I was going to break any second. “Uhm… I got kicked out of my apartment and then some men tried too…” Thinking about what had happened made tears fill my eyes and I felt so disgusted that I couldn’t even say the word. Chanyeol quickly scooted closer to me and wrapped his arms around me. “Shh it’s okay, you don’t have to say it, I just wanted to know if you remembered.” He said as he my hair. I nodded and motioned for him to continue. “Do you remember seeing someone or something?” He carefully asked. “Yeah, there was this huge brown wolf that saved me,” as I said it I realized how crazy I sounded so I quickly added, “but I was probably hallucinating.” I tried to laugh it off but when I looked at him he didn’t even smile. He moved away from me and got of the bed. “Don’t get scared or freak out, like I said before, I would never hurt you.” He said as he stood in the middle of the room. I was just about to ask him what he was talking about when it happened. I heard a low growl as his skin started to rip, making me quickly get off the bed, getting ready to save him from whatever was happening but I froze when dark brown fur, the same color as his hair, grew out from the cracks in his skin and there, where Chanyeol had been just a few seconds ago, a huge brown wolf was standing. He looked at me with his shining yellow eyes and I knew it was him. Knowing that Chanyeol wouldn’t hurt me, I approached him, reaching out my hand to carefully touch the wolf. I walked around him while running my hands through his soft fur and as I stood in front of him again I looked at him with a confused smile. “I hope you have more to tell me because I’m even more confused now, I should be freaking out, right?” He tilted his head to the side. “A man I just met, who I can’t take my eyes off by the way, just turned into a wolf in front of me and I’m okay with it, that’s extremely confusing.” I added and I swear I could see the wolf smile. He took a few steps away from me and turned back to human. I let out a squeal and covered my eyes when I realized he was completely . “Sorry” He chuckled and it didn’t sound like he meant it at all.
I heard a door open and close then I felt him take my hand, making me open my eyes. He was wearing a pair of dark jeans and muscle-t, showing off his well-built arms. He pulled me back to the bed and sat down, I sat down next to him and waited for him to continue his explanation. “So as you probably guessed by now I’m a werewolf,” I nodded, still not understanding why I wasn’t freaking out. “And since a werewolf is part wolf I have some wolf… uh… instincts.” He scratched the back of his head, “Like for example, wolves live in packs and so do werewolves, in fact there are 11 other werewolves in this house.” He explained and made a gesture towards the door. “And these other werewolves are in your pack?” I asked, trying to understand everything he was saying. “Well not my pack, Suho is the Alfa.” He explained and I slowly nodded. “Another thing that werewolves got from wolves is the need to have a mate.” I listened carefully as he said the word mate. “And it’s not like I can walk up to any girl and decide that she is ‘the one’, it’s already decided.” I could see that he was struggling with finding the right words, so I decided to help him the best I could. “Like soul mates?” As I said that a grin formed on his lips. “Yes exactly!” I couldn’t help but to let out a giggle at his excitement, “The moments your eyes meet you just feel completely safe and like…” My eyes widened in recognition, “like nothing in the world can hurt you as long as you’re together.” I finished for him, I had never even thought about that maybe he felt the same things that I did. “Yeah, it’s a bond that can never be broken and a werewolf will kill to protect his mate.” He said that last part in a low voice and as he did a memory flashed before my eyes. The memory of the two dead, blood covered bodies made a shiver run down my spine, he must’ve noticed because he wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me closer. “I’m your mate.” It wasn’t a question, more of a realization. “Yes.” He said simply as he run his hand through my hair.
We sat there in silence for a few minutes as my brain tried to sort out what was actually happening. “Do any of the other guys in the pack have mates?” I asked and looked up at him. “Yeah,” He nodded, “4 of them do, they really want to meet you, the guys too.” He smiled and I suddenly got nervous. “What if they don’t like me?” I asked and chewed on my lower lip. “Of course they’ll like you!” He laughed and took my hand, leading me to the door. I pulled away from his grip making him turn to me, giving me a confused look. “Chanyeol, I can’t go out like this.” I said and looked down at myself, making him do the same. I was wearing one of his t-shirts only with a pair of his boxers underneath. “Right,” He chuckled “I’ll go and see if any of the other girls has any clothes you can borrow, I’ll be right back.” I was about to protest since I didn’t want to be a bother and I didn’t want him to leave me, but before I could open my mouth he pressed his lips against my forehead before leaving the room.
I sighed and looked around the room, except for the door Chanyeol just went through there were two other doors, time to investigate. I opened the first door and walked into a closet. One side of the closet was filled with hoodies, t-shirts, jeans, sweatpants, and caps a lot of caps. To my surprise the other side was empty, there were shelves and hangers but not one article of clothing. It took a while for my brain to realize that it was for me at the same time I realized that I’m going to live here with Chanyeol and 15 people I haven’t even met yet, and I was okay with it. This werewolf, mate stuff confused me.
I walked out of the closet and opened the other door, a bathroom, perfect. I walked in, closed the door and stripped off my clothes before stepping into the shower. This is just what I needed I though as I the shower.
When I came out from the shower I noticed some neatly folded clothes next to the sink, weird I hadn’t even heard the door open. I dried my body and hair before putting on the borrowed clothes which was underwear (thank god), a pair of washed out jeans, and a knitted sweater. After I put on the clothes I walked out to see Chanyeol sitting on the bed waiting for me. As fast as he saw me he stood up with a grin on his face and I bet that I had the same expression on my face. I was starting to realize that this might be a bit harder than I thought since I wanted to be close to him 24/7.
“You look beautiful” He complimented and I managed to squeak out a small ‘thank you’. “So are we going to meet them?” I asked, trying to change the subject. “Hyuna, there’s something I need to tell you first.” He said with a concerned look on his face. “What, do you have magic powers as well?” I joked and let out a laugh. “Actually, yeah we do.” He said seriously, “Don’t you wonder how your wounds disappeared?” He continued. I put my hand on my cheek and remembered that I had thought about it when I woke up but that thought disappeared in my confusion. “That was Lay, he has the power of healing, he’s also the reason I know your name. He told me that when he had to pull you away from… death,” He said the word quietly and I could see in his eyes that it was painful for him to say it, “He told me that he heard a woman saying your name.” I just stared at him with my mouth open.
“Th-that was my mom, but that’s not what’s important right now, he can prevent death?” I asked astonished. “Not really… he can only pull away people from death if they weren’t meant to die, like if it was an accident, they got murdered or commit suicide.” I didn’t know what to say so I just let out a quiet ‘oh’ and went to sit on the bed. “It feels like my brain is going to explode.” I said and tried to laugh it off. “You don’t have to meet them today, you know.” He said, sitting down next to me and putting his arm around my shoulder. I shook my head and smiled. “It’s okay, I want to meet them,” I looked up to him and he smiled back at me. “But there’s something you want to ask me first.” He laughed when he saw my confused expression, “It’s the bond, I know what you feel” He explained. “That’s unfair, why don’t I know what you feel?” I puffed my cheeks making him laugh. “You will after I mark you” As fast as he said that his face turned white and I could see that he suddenly got nervous. “What’s that?” I asked curiously. “Nothing, I’ll tell you later.” He quickly said. And before I could ask what was going on he changed the subject. “What did you want to ask me?” I sighed and decided to let it go for now since there was something I was really curious about, “What’s your power?” I asked curiously. He smirked and held out his hand. “Fire.” He said as his hand suddenly erupted into flames. I slightly jumped making him chuckle as he closed his hand, making the fire disappear. I quickly grabbed his hand to see if he was hurt, but his hand was just bit warm. “I would say ‘you have no idea how confused I am feeling right now’ but I’m pretty sure you do know” I said as I puffed my cheeks. Chanyeol laughed and grabbed my hand, making me stand up with him. “Yeah, you can’t hide anything from me sweetheart,” He said, making me blush as he pulled me out through the door. “It’s time to meet your new family!”
