Dad settled into the chair opposite me and snorted. "We can tell a lot has happened. You are barely stuttering and you have put on weight."
I glanced down at myself with a small frown and he laughed immediately.
"I mean that in the best way possible, Ember. You look good. Different, but good."
I smiled at him and let a beat of silence sit before I decided to just say it.
"I have a twin brother."
They stared at me. Both of them. Completely blank.
I had to press my lips together to stop the laugh that wanted to come out at their expressions.
"Come again?" Dad said.
"I have a twin brother. His name is Pollux. He is a Lycan, which means I am a Lycan too, and I am apparently twenty-one rather than twenty so it is all a bit complicated and I am not entirely sure where to start because there is quite a lot of it..."
"Nova." Mum's voice was gentle. "You are rambling, sweetheart."
