And Wes had dark blue eyes and a slight tan to his skin. He had an unusually fair complexion with extremely light eyes, and an even taller stature than Wes.

His hard look softened immediately when he noticed my expression. "I'm Matthias. I'm sorry, I thought you were intruding. Are you here for Wesley?" All of a sudden, everything made sense. How could I not have thought this was Wes's brother?

"Yeah," I said quietly. His eyes were an extremely pale blue. He could be tyrannizing if he wanted to be.

"I've heard about you," he said, a smile playing on his lips. "I'm back from military school, visiting for a while. I don't think Wesley knows I'm back yet."

"Flora!" my head whipped to Wes who was now hugging me to his chest protectively. "I'm sorry, I needed to take care of something upstairs," he got out. Then, he turned cold eyes to Matthias. "What did you do to Flora?"

Matthias laughed heartily. "Nothing, she's just scared is all. Aren't you happy to see your big brother again?" Wes reluctantly let go of me, his expression softening. "Yeah, I thought you'd stay in military school until Summer."

Matthias smiled. "Even Beilschmidt Military doesn't have rules that intense. Spring Break starts earlier for us, so I'll be home for a while."

Wes nodded, taking my hand in his. "I need to show you something. Good to see you, Matthias," he said as he led me back to the direction of his room. "You too, little brother. Nice meeting you, Flora." Wes's hand tightened a little in mine as he began going up the narrow set of wooden stairs.
