My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift

　　Story and origin of Werewolves.

　　“What do you know about Werewolves?” Rita asked.

　　Roxanne scoffed at the question. Was this some sort of joke? Why was Rita talking about something that had no bearing with the questions she had within her and the situation she was in.

　　“What kind of question is that? Just tell me-“ Roxanne started to speak impatiently.

　　“It’s an important question, just answer it. What do you know about Werewolves?”

　　Rita’s eyes focused on Roxanne, who was a bit confused by the question. But, after seeing the serious look on Rita’s face, she decided to just give her an answer.

　　“Werewolves are people who have the ability to turn to wolves. Happy?” Roxanne said with dissatisfaction.

　　“I’m serious Roxanne. Is there anything else? Anything your parents told you? Anything you remember hearing or seeing?” Rita asked, drawing her face closer.

　　“N-No. I don’t even understand how that is an issue here. Werewolves are fiction, okay? They’re not real, unlike the predicament I’m currently stuck in” Roxanne expressed.

　　Rita didn’t reply. Instead, she rested her back and closed her eyes. She mumbled some words to herself, which Roxanne could not quite make out before she finally sat upright again.
