Amelia: "Alright. Where?"

Xander: "I'll send a car."

After they hung up, Amelia felt both anxious and resolute. She needed answers.

That evening, the car arrived promptly. She was taken to a private estate on the outskirts of the city.

Xander greeted her at the entrance.

Xander: "Thank you for coming."

Amelia: "I need to know the truth, Xander."

He nodded.

Xander: "I understand. Please, come inside."

He led her to a cozy sitting room with a fireplace crackling warmly.

Amelia: "This place is beautiful."

Xander: "It's a family home."

They sat across from each other.

Xander: "There's no easy way to say this, but I owe you honesty."

Amelia: "I'm listening."

He took a deep breath.

Xander: "My family... we're part of a lineage that is ancient and, to many, unimaginable."

Amelia: "What does that mean?"

Xander: "We are Lycans."

She blinked, processing the word.

Amelia: "As in... werewolves?"

He nodded.

Amelia: Incredulous "Is this a joke?"

Xander: "I wish it were. But it's the truth."

She stood up, pacing.

Amelia: "This is insane."

Xander: "I know it's hard to believe."

Amelia: "You're telling me you're a... werewolf?"

Xander: "Yes."
