Escapism

"I'm not that terrifying," Ariel responded with a wry smile.

But, of course, it was a difficulty wasn't it? Meeting another Greyback. Ariel had met a swathe in his time and had scorned the lot of them. Surely there was a difference this time given he had saved her in the first place?

Ariel sincerely doubted it.

"What?" He queried idly, raising an eyebrow at her. "Have you never met one of your relatives before?"

He stepped back, inspecting her curiously, wondering after whether or not she had ever met Fenrir. Possibly not. She looked unscathed of that strange sort of privilege. It made a change, especially given how wrapped up in Fenrir's affairs Ariel now was.

"You're Fenrir's daughter, I presume?"

"No you did not, of course... I just ..." she sighed deeply. 'Calm down, Beatris, you knew this will going to happen one day, act normally'. She looked at him."I did not expect to meet today some of my relatives." Or a brother. Oh, God, just not let to be a brother. She's terrified by the thought that now after so many years find her brother. How she should to behave?

"I haven't met anyone.. so far. Most of my life I spent in the world of Muggles " running away  from my kind and father - finished in her head.

"Yes, and judging by the stories, second born." She took her hair from her face, and then began to play nervously with her bracelet. "You're... my relative?" She looked at him with interest. For the first time she really look at him. They had some similarities, probably from their mutual genes.
