I. Welcom to Belcier

About two weeks ago I arrived in Belcier after traveling around the world for some years, time after grandparents Linsey and Eliot disappeared without leaving any clear reason, guided mostly by my recklessness.      

I came to Belcier a Friday in full beginning of the month of may, around two in the afternoon, I came alone because they knew no one and even worse they don't know anything so I had to learn how to use the sense of the orientation as a wolf I have but that usually doesn't do much in my quality of omega.   

The city in my full arrival was extremely hectic after the weekend being in its full start so all the establishments around were kept crowded.   

Everywhere you looked the accumulation of people was impressive, hotels, squares, parks, shopping centers, bars and restaurants, all completely full to their maximum capacity were maintained, fuss that worsened after the night arrived, so the truth I was very lucky to get a place to stay.      

The last permanent available space I could find a few minutes away from the city center located on the third level of an old building called Vinchenzo where usually only humans are residing right there I was able to find a small studio apartment divided into two sessions for two tenants.   

To my surprise, the room was already occupied, in a few words, there was already someone staying there who more than anything was a girl I could say that it is even someone who is around mysmeooking at it from the human perspective of course.      

Lina Cossio is a humble and sweet girl who has nothing to do with the world of wolves since she is a complete human, she came to Belcier to continue her university studies and ended up staying living in such an unusual city trapped by its beauty and the dynamic life that is usually carried around these parts.      

Lina not only knew how to welcome me but, for the days we began to form a good and faultless friendship, for this reason, being knowledgeable about my situation and being aware of my possible needs, she was committed to extending a helping hand to me, this being able to give good references of me to her boss even despite being a stranger to her and after such a meeting is that the real story begins.      

You can imagine my surprise a few days later after finding out what has been done by Lina towards me, telling me it is a day less than the other out of the blue I had a job interview with the owner of the restaurant The Great Atlantean establishment that is located in the center of the city, being such an icon at the national level, an agreement which was finalized quickly after some few days after my arrival, though my excitement there was merely for such an opportunity my attention turned although I would not like to admit it, the weight of such a detail.      

The big day of the interview arrived and the surprises were starting to arise because after following Lina to the administrative area and entering an office there I ended up meeting someone I knew, that person was not very well observed after opening the door surprised and pronounced.       

"Emma! "replicates the person in front of me who is sitting comfortably at that desk with his face showing complete expressions of surprise and whom, for the moment, although it was familiar to me, I do not recognize.      

With confusion, I observed Lina who with surprise returned the same expression to me.   

"You know her, sir," Lina refutes after trying to act as a mediator between the two.      

"Of course, I know her, although it is evident that she does not remember me" he without hesitation stands up leaving the seat where he previously was and after circling the desk seeks to position himself right in front of us while replying.    

"I am Mr. Lombardi, Emma, the old friend of your grandparents Eliot and Linsey, I used to visit them constantly before I left Venice some ten years ago. "

That last name I hadn't heard for years without a doubt, having him in front of me was a complete surprise.      

"Uncle Martin! "     

"Yes, little one, it's me. "     

With what emotion that one opened his arms in the air, neither he, much less I could believe that finally after so long we had both been able to meet again so full of joy we ended up united in an unparalleled embrace as warm and comforting as any other.      

"You don't know the pleasure it gives me to see you again," he refutes after finally moving away.     

"I think the same, uncle, you can't imagine how happy it makes me be able to find you, by the way, and Aunt Susan, where is she? "     

"He has recently gone on a trip, in a few days I estimate that he will be back, without a doubt he will love being able to see you. "      

After the resurgence of such a conversation and observing a space in which to intervene Lina stressed       

"With such a surprise that fate brings, I am very glad that they were able to meet again. "     

Uncle Martin is ecstatic about the emotion that had accumulated in his being so he could easily distinguish it.      

"You can't imagine how much I thank you Lina " Mr. Lombardi did not hesitate to express his gratitude for such a situation emotions beat him by a lot and after breathing a few seconds I continue saying "and well that brings them here.       

Lina takes the floor again and emphasizes "she is the person I talked to you about. "     

"What a surprise then, you turned out to be the applicant. "     

"Yes, Uncle Martin. "       

The uncle with which hand gesture guided to obvious insistence made me approach the desk to accommodate me in one of the seats that were there to finally give free reins to the dialogue, without hesitation I approached it was not fair that I made some snub and after I noticed that Lina remained in the same besieged after our arrival I surprised him.       

"Come on Lina, come closer don't stand there. "       

"Emma is right, come closer," the uncle stresses in the same way with obvious determination.    

"Thank you, Emma and Mr. Lombardi, but no, I'm sorry to reject your invitation, it's almost time to start with my work tasks and therefore I have to retire to my work area, besides I imagine you have a lot to talk about, so I prefer to give you time. "    

Uncle Martín, listening to him without delay, approached Lina to indicate a simple question and after placing a hand on her left shoulder indicated.  

"Again Lina thank you very much, you can not imagine what you have done for me today without even being aware of it, now, keep it very pending for such an act you will receive a good reward from me. "    

"It is not necessary, Mr. Lombardi, we have only tried to do something good, something right, and that has led us to this. "   

Lina raised her left hand to make sure of the time thus looking carefully at the watch that was placed on her wrist and after seeing the time that was marked there pronounced "I must leave with your permission I retire.   

He pronounced that with his gaze fixed on that man and after a few seconds when he turned his gaze to my person he finally exclaimed.    

"Emma I'll see you later at the apartment. "      

And raising his hand in the air moving it from one side to the other as a sign of farewell, he quickly walked away from there, the truth didn't even leave me time to return such a greeting so he just disappeared.      

"What a girl. "      

"Say it loud Emma, Lina has a unique energy, it's as if her batteries will never run out. "      

After listening to him I couldn't help but laugh because it had been a long time since I had heard such comparisons that only he knew how to make.  

"I see that not even the years have been able to change you, Uncle Martín, you have no remedy. "     

"With the age I have, I doubt it" and after replying that the laughter also won him.   

After calming down the seriousness I take the office and that air of joy began to be changed by a feeling of obvious heaviness and tension so uncle I reproach myself  

"And tell me what brings you by Belcier Where are Eliot and Linsey? "    

"Believe me, the same question I ask myself. "     

"Like, I don't understand. "      

Talking about them caused a huge reluctance to settle in me, linked to the cruelest sadness because after seeing them disappear the way they did, it was quite hard for me.   

The slightest uttering of a word that related to them made me suffer at the slightest concern, but in the end, after saving a few seconds he silenced me I was obliged to answer.      

"They both returned to the forest about four years ago, in every possible way they forbade me to intervene and even to approach the hut. "  

I lowered my head. I didn't have the strength to even look him in the eye at that moment.   

Believe me when I tell you that on more than one occasion I entered the forest in the hope of crossing the fog to try to see them, but it was useless in the end I ended up getting lost in the middle of the mysterious fog that forms because of that I ended up leaving the country, but recently I returned I thought that the most convenient thing was to change the air so I decided to get away from Venice a bit to settle here.  

"Do you know if something happened or if any news has been heard among the wolves in the area regarding them" with curiosity and fear Lombardi refutes that perhaps imagining the worst scenario?      

"No, I am completely exempt from everything, I completely do not know the reason for their flight, now, when they were finally leaving, they both handed me the locket that grandma always wore on her neck with the specific message that over time she would discover the meaning of what is hidden inside. "   

With sadness, take my right hand and take it to my neck and take it by the chain that held it, take out that object which I keep hidden most of the time under my clothes from the intrusive view of others.  

So carefully I raised it in the air and after extracting it completely once outside I deposited it right on my left hand to admire him, so for the new time, I ended up raising my eyes to that man and replied...      

"Since then it has become the most precious thing for me, it is the only thing that makes me feel close to them. "    

Mr. Lombardi looked at me with eyes flooded with sadness, my words had formed a knot in his soul, but despite this undoubtedly such a feeling would not prevent him from speaking.   

"Emma, from now on I'm telling you, you must keep it hidden from everyone's view, even if it doesn't seem like it, the locket has an enormous value, one that can't be bought with any money. "  

Seeing him in my hands caused him some uneasiness his voice is no longer heard, rather he became somewhat agitated his eyes did not move away he stared at the object in my hand as if analyzing lost in his world.  

For a few more seconds he is silent as if trying to put his thoughts in order and after taking a deep breath I continue saying...   

"I know, I know how precious it can become, it was too important for them, but now, in the present time he affects you more than anything to you, I can't tell you much because I know little about it, but I can only say that this object also affects your future in the world of wolves. "
