"Agent Axel," Calum said quietly.
Astrid gently pushed Raine away. "There is something I must tell you... When I was very young that man, Calum, found my family. He discovered our secret. When he began to hunt us we ran to the city to hide. One day he caught my mother, and we never saw her again, It was only a few years later that he killed my father." Astrid began to cry. "I barely got away." She tried to keep from crying, and calmed her breathing. "I never told the Shape Shifters. They thought my parents had been killed during hunting season. I was so afraid to tell you." Tears rolled down her cheeks, and Astrid's words were barely understandable. "I couldn't lose you too."
Calum walked over to her, curiously. "Can I help you?"
