I was surprised that the NO knew she was our personal slave. How could they know? I have never made an official statement of my past or my family’s lineage. Better not ask. Makes me think, what else do they know about me?

“Yes she was,” I said.

-------------------------------------------------

Blanca had red eyes and red hair. She was hypnotizing. She went from working in the fields under the hot sun, to take care of indoor shores. My father trusted her but kil ed her mother while she tried to escape. We fel in love fast. We couldn't resist each other being so close.

Attraction was immediate. My family would be total y against it. She was a slave after al . We couldn’t wait for the house to be empty for being together. Other slaves knew about us but they wouldn’t say a thing. Everything went smoothly for months. We just enjoyed the moment and we never thought about any future. Until one day, one day Blanca had to defend herself from my mother’s whip. Turns out she was a witch. Nobody knew about it, not even herself. As my mother whipped her (punishment for eating leftovers without permission) she somehow lifted my mother in the air and slammed her against the wal . Involuntary move but my mother almost broke her neck. She told father what happened, he took his shotgun and went looking for her, but she had already run into the woods. Not by herself but I ran along with her. We escaped from a certain death into the wild.

We spent the night in a local hotel. Everyone knew me, we were one of the few rich families. So I lied about a business trip, rented a room and sneaked Blanca without anyone noticing. It was easy, no one questioned my presence in the town. But that night the town went wild. My father gathered a large number of men for a “witch hunt”. They were looking everywhere, even inside houses and of course, inside hotel rooms.

They found us. They didn’t care that I loved her. They took her for hanging and they sent me home. As I was in my room alone, I couldn't resist the urge to rescue her. I had less than 12

hours before the execution so I escaped my room and went looking for her. As I ran through the woods I felt a little strange. There was a ful moon that night and I could hear wolves howling in the distance. I felt as if deep darkness was taking control of me. I didn’t care about the danger, I just wanted to get away with her. When I arrived at the place where she was held, I was already a werewolf. I somewhat knew it but I couldn't control myself. I just recognized my father and mother's faces in horror as I buried my wolf claws inside them. That night 10 people lost their 16

lives in an event known as “The Mississippi slaughter where an unknown beast dismembered 10 human bodies and devoured a black slave which was never found” as reported by newspapers.

I took Blanca on my back and rode her into the woods. She knew it was me. I saw it in her face.

She wasn’t scared, she let me take her. But magic isn’t forever and as more vil agers came after us with guns and horses I started feeling weak. They found us again. But I kil ed everyone again. Blanca knew my heart was aching. She casted a spel for me, a love spel . Suddenly I felt peace inside while I saw her lifting into the air in a beautiful light. I had never seen anything like that before. Suddenly I realized I was a werewolf. I could control myself since my first transformation. It came so natural y. Blanca then turned herself into shiny crystals which shattered into the ground. Rubi, Emerald, Sapphire. From that moment my life changed forever.

Beauty calmed the beast.

I finished my story. Gary took a thoughtful attitude while Mr. Obvious i-am-not-a-hiding-vampire asian partner remained monitoring the drone device. The air in the room was oddly relaxed.

“What do you say, partner?” Gary said, addressing his partner.

“I say he's ful of shit sir” He said looking at me not even moving a muscle fiber in his face. He stil had his sunglasses on. I want to punch him.

They both stared at me for a few seconds.

“Haha!” Gary laughed again “Time wil tel ” He cal ed back the drone.

The black and yel ow flying sphere actual y reduced his size to fit through my window and hovered in front of us like a display of magic. Silent as darkness. Fucking corporations.

“Bee technologies reports: no carbon based lifeforms detected anywhere inside the property excluding suspect Mr Cee, and FO officers”

“Please speak to me as i am a fucking kid you stupid flying sphere” Demanded Gary

“Sorry, I wil downgrade the standard IQ communication while speaking to you sir. No other human or persons beside you, your partner and the suspect are present in the property”
