Nigel covered his mouth with both of his hands because he was reminded again of the repulsive scene when Wulfric's body was going through so many changes just a while ago. He took a few quick breaths in and then asked Wulfric, "Right! I was told that we transform only on full moons. But we can do that at any ti?"
"Yes, we can change into a wolf at any ti, but after lots and lots of practice." Wulfric didn't want to scare off Nigel by going into deeper details. So he just gave his brother a smile and assured him, "You will learn it eventually."
Nigel touched his chin and nodded his head. He didn't know anything about the werewolves and every ti soone would give him so new piece of information, he would try to rember them for future references.
"So, tell other things that I need to know about this whole werewolf curse," Nigel asked his experienced brother.
Wulfric puckered his lips and humd for so ti. "You don't know anything, so where do I even start?"
"Umm… maybe start by explaining my new body, I an what kind of things I can do now that I couldn't do as a human?" Nigel gave him the direction.
Nigel was curious about his new abilities. And he thought that knowing such minor details would be beneficial on the first day of his training in Aberdeen. He didn't want others to think of him as a newborn baby werewolf, which he actually was.
"Let's see…" Wulfric tapped his feet on the floor and thought. It was not that he didn't know anything, it was just that he knew way too many things about the werewolf body and he was having difficulty in deciding where to start from.
"Okay, let's start from our sense of sll. I want you to know that our sense of sll is our greatest ally. You might have noticed that everything has its own distinct sll, humans also know that, but we know it better." Wulfric lifted his hand and brought it near to Nigel's nose and said, "Sll it."
Nigel creased his brows thinking where Wulfric was going with this. But he slled his hand anyway. "Now what?"
"Now sll yourself," Wulfric was not joking, he was serious.
And Nigel did as he asked. And his eyes were wide open upon the realization. "Oh… my… God… We sll exactly the sa."
"Yes. We do because we both are werewolves." Wulfric was enjoying teaching his older brother about the things that he didn't know. "Do you rember what I slled like when I was in my wolf form?"
Nigel was constantly giving the surprised expression. "Yes. I do. But you slled different at that ti."
Wulfric snapped his fingers and pointed that Nigel was right. "Yes, our sll gets extrely strong when we turn into a wolf. That's how we know if there are any other wolves nearby."
Wulfric rubbed his hands in excitent and continued, "And we know it from this very sll when a new wolf gets turned. Those who transform for the first ti, or the virgin turners as we call them, give off at least ten tis stronger sll than other werewolves. That's how the clan manages to find them before they do sothing that they would regret later."
"But you were too far from us, for us to know that you had turned." Wulfric had a sense of relief when he continued, "Luckily, Fenris was there in Wyverndale at the right ti and he inford your mother and us about you. Else things might have gone very wrong with the temper that we inherit along with the curse."
"What do you an by 'things might have gone wrong'?" Nigel could not think of things going any more wrong than gaining the consciousness in front of the Devil, naked.
Wulfric ran his fingers through his raven black hair and stared away from Nigel. He was contemplating whether to tell a tragic story of a virgin turner to Nigel or not. He didn't want to scare Nigel but at the sa ti, he didn't want Nigel to be oblivious about the woes of werewolves.
"Just tell already," Nigel gave a nudge to his cousin and asked.
Wulfric finally decided to tell the story. He started speaking in a sad tone, "Once, I heard about a werewolf who tore off his baby sister with his fangs because she was constantly poking him with a stick when he was in his wolf form."
"That was the first ti that he turned and it beca his last. He was never able to turn back into his human form again. Those who get a taste of human flesh lose their sanity. The clan hunted down that werewolf because that kind poses a great danger to humans as well as to the other werewolves."
Nigel breathed heavily and he looked very sad. He felt discomfort in his heart after hearing that story. "What if I had unintentionally done the sa thing to Adeline?" he could not help but think of himself in a similar situation.
"Don't look so worried. You will be taught to control your anger issues and you will also learn to keep your consciousness while you are in the wolf form so that such tragedies won't occur." Wulfric gave a sweet grin to his brother in the hopes of calming him down. Nigel looked really afraid for so reason.
But at the sa ti, Nigel was also thankful that everyone was at the banquet on the day he turned. He knew that he was having anger control issues since he turned into a werewolf. And he was also thankful to the Devil for not letting him roam around in his wolf form. Instead, he had reverted him back to his human form.
Seeing Nigel lost in his thoughts, Wulfric changed the topic and returned back to the explanation about the sense of sll, "Like I was saying before, we can not only sll different types of animals, foods, and plants, we can also sll the emotion. It is extrely helpful in so situations; like we know when soone is going to be hostile towards us just by slling them. And we can prepare to fight back beforehand."
"Huh! That might actually be helpful." Nigel was really impressed.
Suddenly, sothing struck Nigel's mind. A hint of curiosity lingered in Nigel's eyes and he asked his brother, "Did you manage to find just by slling ?"
"Yeah, I heard that you were coming and couldn't wait to see you. So I sneaked out from the Palace and after crossing the Enchanted Valley, which is the beacon of werewolves, I could just sll one distinct scent of a werewolf. And I followed it and found you." Wulfric said it as though it was a normal thing to track soone down just by sll alone.
Then he jumped out of the bed and stretched his body to flex his muscles. "Alright brother, see you again in a few hours. I will head back before soone finds out that I am missing from the Palace." And he was ready to jump out of the window.
"Give that blanket back," Nigel shouted before Wulfric could jump and pulled the blanket off of his waist. But seeing his naked brother, he wasn't sure if he could sleep using that sa blanket.
Wulfric looked at Nigel from the corner of his eyes and gave a smirk. He stood by the window and taunted Nigel while grinning, "Mine's bigger than yours, isn't it?" And without waiting for Nigel's reply, he imdiately jumped out.
"You sure do want to get a good beating, don't you?" Nigel shouted to his shaless brother.. He looked out of the window and watched a wolf vanish in the distance soon after.
