At first, Juliett had honestly expected things to feel a bit awkward, but Tony was very talkative and he easily came up with comments or questions that progressed conversation. But, thankfully, all was not lost because when she asked questions to Khristoph he did speak. Again she turned her eyes on the tall male, as he spoke of where they had moved from. “The summers must be longer in Anchorage.” Juliett smiled warmly. He did have a tan, as did Tony unless it was natural, so maybe they were used to working outside in Anchorage, but she would not pry into their personal lives. “Oh.” Juliett’s crinkled her nose. Believe it or not, Juliett really didn’t like fish. She especially hated the smell. “He must really love fish. . . “ She mumbled to herself. It made sense. Barrow was known for its fishing exports.

Sure, Juliett had long noticed that Tony was nicely built, but she was a bit embarrassed by his movements of so artfully taking off his clothes. It made her feel a bit awkward, especially because she didn’t know him so well. She adverted her eyes to the boxes. It seemed like they were still unpacking. When Tony spoke again, Juliett nervously chuckled as he recited Shakespeare and spoke of her parents. “Brings back memories from high school. I assume they were,” Juliett said softly, twiddling her fingers. Juliett was not good at deciphering flirty words. She always thought them to be more as friendly, thanks to her oblivious personality. It took the boys, back in highschool, the longest time to ask her out on a date if they didn't make it specific that they were, indeed, asking her out. Back on track to why her parents would have named her Juliett would never be known. However, she knew they would be proud with her title of Beta and at such a young age. “Do you like fish too?” Juliett asked Tony, curious if Tony and Khristoph were brothers. There was then a knock on the door and Tony disappeared.

Now Juliett turned her eyes onto Khristoph. She watched as he reached for a cookie. Juliett always became a bit nervous when others tried her baking. When he commented on the shape of her cookies, she lifted her left eyebrow in question curious to why that would be funny. But she would save that question for another day. And then he complimented her. That won him her best smile. Her face lit up instantly as her cheeks flushed. Silly, Juli. Her cheeks easily turned red against her fair skin. “Thank you. The secret ingredient is pouring the soul into the cookies.” Juliett said warmly. Although, Juli had been young when she had lost her parents she vaguely continued to hold onto past memories. Her mother enjoyed baking and Juliett always was helping. Really, it wasn’t helping. It was more like making a mess and covering the kitchen and one another in flour.

Another female entered the scene with luscious blond hair. She was beautiful this woman. "Juliett, this is Savannah. My brother's fiancee." Khristoph introduced the woman as Juliett smiled warmly at her. Juliett nodded back at the woman before letting her eyes trail to the woman’s left hand. Where was the ring? Maybe she took it off, but why would anyone take off the ring, unless. . .she wasn’t happy with being engaged. “The pleasure is all mine,” Juliett said abruptly turning her green eyes back onto the woman’s face and giving a small smile. Not having a ring on the finger was certainly strange. One thing was for certain, Khristoph and Tony were not siblings. If they were then wouldn’t Khristoph have introduced Savannah as Tony’s finacee? Then Tony was back in the kitchen with an all too familiar face. “Colin?” Juliett asked. “I didn’t know you wanted to come visit too.” Juli said, knowing all too well that Colin had been sleeping at the time. No matter, she gave him a warm smile. Colin was a close friend of hers. When Tony commented on the cookies, Juli’s face flushed before she beamed another smile. “Thank you.” Juliett was flattered. The Edwards were so very kind and warm, welcoming, and lively.

With the new Edward edition, Ariana. There were so many faces and names to remember, Juliett wasn’t even sure if she could follow anymore. When Ariana pointed out the crumbs on Khristoph’s face, Juliett couldn’t help but look at Khristoph. Just as quickly as she looked, however, she turned her eyes away, flustered once again. “Did your family have a business in Anchorage as well?” Juliett asked, chocking out the words trying to say anything and find out a bit about the new family.

What no beep? Ah, that was alright, he didn't expect to receive a reply message from Luca at this time anyway. He slipped his cell back inside his pocket and then looked up as the door opened. Fantastic! It opened to reveal his baby, ''Surprise!'' He exclaimed joyously. Without a thought to it he took a step forward to plant a greeting kiss on the blonde male's lips. Then he noticed a look in Luca's eyes though, a sign of pure dissatisfaction, annoyance and displeasure. He stopped suddenly and froze in place. What was the matter with his cookie-wooks? It was easy to see that there was a problem. Marc really examined the other boy's face then. His smile gradually faded as he kept on looking at him. Huh? This was not Luca, it was his twin.

''Oh.'' Marc laughed brushing off his mistake. ''You're James.'' He shrugged his shoulders and rolled his eyes. ''Be a good sport and let me in the house, Jamie.'' He smiled. A loud huff erupted from Marc's mouth a second later and he locked eyes with James. He could sense the hatred wafting from him and he didn't like it. 'Sweet Jesus!'' Marc muttered shaking his head from left to right. 'What is your problem?'' He asked feeling so unwelcome, but as he looked to the right all thought was gone once he spotted a shocked little face looking at him.

Aw. Two big bright green, kitty-like, eyes stared straight in Marc's direction and he only smiled when he saw that it was his baby. ''There you is.'' He called happily. He pressed a firm hand against James' chest to push past him. In a second he had shoved James into the wall and entered through the door. Then in a flash he wandered straight over to Luca and wrapped both arms around his neck. The hug was a little tight since Marc wanted to feel as close as possible to his beloved boyfriend. ''I've missed you baby.'' He spoke in a soft sweet whisper into Luca's ear while his hand began stroking the back of Luca's messy cookie-colored hair.

Marc frowned slightly. His sniffed, breathing in the air around them, and instantly his nose captured Luca's musky aroma. ''Did you just get out of the bed?' He asked curiously. It smelled like Luca had just rolled out from under the bed sheets. Wow, this was the first time Marc had seen him all ruffled. It was funny how much this made him happy. ''Aww.'' Marc smiled, stepping back out of his space. ''Is my baby still sleepy?' He glanced up into Luca's eyes and held him in his arms. It was basically a minute later that he saw bits of Luca's hair sticking up in odd places. Well now, that wouldn't do. Marc leaned forward onto his toes and reached both hands up to start patting the wild strands on Luca's head down ''You might want to shower to fix this mess.'' He commented about the prickles.

''I tell you what, you go shower and I'll make you breakfast'' Marc sensed that if Luca had just gotten up a short while ago then he hadn't eaten. He stopped patting down the hair and grinned. ''Go on, I'll be fine.'' He assured him. ''Jamie will look after me.'' Marc continued speaking and then finally sweetly kissed Luca on the cheek. It didn't matter whether James would or wouldn't look after him, all that mattered to Marc was that he was here with his baby.

After kissing Luca on the cheek, he started walking to the kitchen. Turning his head back before he entered though, he smiled from the door. ''I love you.'' He called and then he turned and noticed two young ladies in the room. His eyes widened and then he looked from one to the other: to Rachel and then to Caelie. ''You must be Raquel.' He said to Rachael, not realizing he said her name wrong and nodded. He walked over to Caelie next and then slightly smiled. ''And you must be Caelie'. He uttered looking in her dark brown eyes.'' I've heard about you from Izzy.'' He laughed a bit. ''I'm Marc, Luca's boyfriend. Pleased to meet you.'' Lowering his voice he made a comment. ''I hope you're not with Jamie.'' He muttered hearing the front door knock. Who could that be? He barely paid much attention as he finished talking. ''That guy is quite a douche. He wouldn't even let me into the house.''

• XXXXXXWhat the hell was he doing? James gritted his teeth and balled his fists up. He gave the other three seconds, three short seconds. ‘Three.” He was still moving forward. James held back the growl and for the moment the fact that he would like nothing more than to hit the other square in his jaw. ‘Two.’ Oh now he stopped. A part of James had hoped that he would continue just so that he could hit him one good time. It was bad enough knowing that Luca had a relationship and was hiding it, but for it to be this kid? James had only ever met him once before about four years ago and that was enough of that kid that he could have. Granted it was at Esther's sister's funeral, that kid's mother, but still that was just a type of person that he couldn’t handle. The fact that Luca could and he was with him didn’t really sit well with him. James knew that Luca had a relationship with someone, when he came back before he showered James caught the other scent all over him. He just didn’t know who he was, and now that he does he is less okay with it than he was before.
  
  XXXXXXThe fact that he was now trying to play off what he had just done made James feel more angry. The worst part was that he just wouldn’t stop talking. James continued to stand in the doorway holding onto the door still keeping the other from getting into the house. “You could ask.” He said in a flat voice. “You could also stop talking to me like you know me.” James practically growled at him. What was he even doing here? Luca always talked about how they were keeping things quiet, blah, blah, blah. It doesn’t really scream quiet when he tries to kiss the person that opens the door. “You’re my problem.” James said in reply. He actually went to close the door in the boy’s face, but that didn’t happen since the other pushed him out of the way and waltzed into the house anyway. James growled and moved back and he slammed the door. When he turned back he had been planning on grabbing the boy, but when he turned around he had his arms around Luca. Great.
  
  XXXXXXIt just made him more irritated because he knew that he couldn’t just drag the boy off of Luca without upsetting his brother. Gosh. If James had known all along that it was him who Luca was with James would have told Esther about it as soon as he found out without having a second thought as to what Luca might think. He didn’t really care for her being parental towards him, but Luca on the other hand thought of her as a mother and that would have been the best way to approach this. Ugh. James was just annoyed. Once the other had pulled himself away from Luca and continued to walk through the house like he owned the place. He drew in a deep breath and let it out as a loud sigh before he locked eyes with Luca. “Him, really?” He mouthed so that none of the others could hear. Luca just shrugged and James followed the other into the kitchen.
  
  XXXXXXTo make matters worse when he followed the boy into the kitchen, with Luca behind him, the other was talking bad about him to Racheal and Caelie. James growled quietly. “Oh right. Like you’re one to speak?” James said not speaking low enough so that the other’s couldn’t hear him. He didn’t care. They needed to know that he wasn’t going to bow down to this kid just because he was Luca’s boyfriend. What he really thought of him could easily be seen on his face so trying to hide his words did nothing. Ugh. Out of all the people in the world, men and women, why did it have to be him? “You didn’t ask to come in the house. You expected to just walk in like you own the place.. which in fact you do not.” If James hadn’t had picked up his scent he would have had almost no idea who the other was, except that he could tell that the other was a wolf. He just stared at the other with narrowed eyes. He wanted him to know he didn’t like him and he didn’t approve.

"Hey that fire was not my fault! The toaster committed suicide I swear" Racheal said with a wave of her hand. It really wasn't her fault, it had happened what? Two years ago now? Though she often got teased about it still. She had only left the kitchen for like five minutes at most, when she came back her pop-tart was on fire. It's not anyone got hurt or anything, they just had to get a new toaster. No big deal. Though she hadn't touched the new toaster since they got it, just in case. "Oh right, you're a perfect little angel I forgot" Racheal said sarcastically at James and his innocent act. He actually wasn't a bad kid, she just liked bugging him. Actually he wasn't even really a kid anymore. Racheal looked back and forth between James and Luca, she may have been older than them, but they were definitely taller than her now. She kind of missed the days when she was bigger than them, which had ended pretty much when they hit puberty. They were all getting older and growing up. Racheal refused.

Rach had been lost in thought for a moment and didn't notice Caelie come in until she spoke. "Good morning Caelie!" she said with a bright smile "I hope I didn't wake you up this morning, I tried to be really quiet, and don't listen to James. A delicious cookie is the best way to start the day!" Rachael said sticking her tongue out at James. Racheal was always a little more reserved about joking around with Caelie, since they shared a room she didn't want to annoy her, and the girl was so quite. Sometimes Rach didn't know if it was because Caelie didn't like her or if it was just because she was shy.

Colin was the last to drag himself down stairs, looking as tired as always. It wasn't unusual for him to sleep till noon, so this was actually considered getting up early to him. Racheal liked Colin. He was the newest member to join the pack, and she hadn't known him very long, but he was fun to hang out with. Though she tended to avoid him in the mornings. they had a brief conversation resulting in him leaving to check to Juli. Colin seemed to have appointed himself the packs "older brother", which she knew probably irked James, but she had no problem with it. She actually thought it was kind of cute if nothing else.

When there was a knock on the door Racheal was curious. She wanted to go see who it was, but then her cereal would get soggy, and who likes soggy cereal? No one. So instead she opted to finish her breakfast. She had just started to put her dirty dishes away when a boy entered the room calling back to someone saying he loved them. It took her a moment but she recognized him as Esther's Nephew, Marc? that was his name right? She hadn't had much interaction with him in the past, though she had seen him around before. "Uh Actually- " Racheal started to correct the boy on the pronunciation of her name but stopped when he said he was Luca's boyfriend. "Wait, what?! Luca has a boyfriend? Since when?" Racheal asked suddenly extremely confused. Why hadn't he told anyone? Is that where he had been sneaking off to? So many questions swirled in Racheal's head. Though surprisingly the fact that Luca's new baeu was male wasn't as much as a shock as that he hid the fact he had one in the first place. That was probably because she'd had suspicions in the past about Luca's preference, but never saw a need to ask.

When she heard him call James a douche she had to cover her mouth to try and stifle a laugh. She wondered what the boy could have done to get one his bad side already, he'd only been here a total of what five minutes? Her cheeks reddened a bit with embarrassment when she saw James walk in behind the boy, looking none to pleased with Marc's comment. "Uhm, Marc" Racheal said discreetly pointing behind the boy to where James was standing. However it seemed like James had already heard what Marc was saying, and he wasted no time in starting in on the boy. "Hey James! Be nice! There is no need to be so rude to our new guest!" She scolded as she came up beside Marc and looked him over. "Besides I want to hear about how him and Luca met! I mean why didn't Luca tell us he had such a cutie for a boyfriend" She said poking Marc on the cheek.

Khristoph was getting so sick and tired of talking, and of Tony. Did the other male have to be so.. so annoying. Just how chirpy and ridiculous could he be? Honestly, this was stupid. Tony was flaunting himself like he was god's gift, but he wasn't at all. Khristoph sighed as how Tony played around with Savannah. In Khris' eyes Tony was better when he was quiet and serious, going about his duty and such. Not like this, though. Playing happy families wasn't Khris' style, which is another reason why he didn't join in with them. It hadn't been his style since Elijah left home to serve their country. Their mother had missed him and Khris had too, but then he wasn't going to tell a person that. Khristoph had spent many months of his younger years counting down the days and waiting for his brother to return home, only for the older man to stay a few days then leave them alone again. It had been hard for Khris without him, as he had always looked up to him and followed him everywhere. So due to Elijah's constant absence Khristoph opted to follow in his footsteps, making his mother sad, but proud. Big mistake. Khris hadn't realized just what he was completely getting into by signing up to serve the government. It was a difficult job to provide safety for the American people and let's face it, in life you are never really safe. While Khris even understood everything that they were trying to accomplish, this wasn't really him and he hated being doing it. Since he signed up for it though, there was no backing out; this job was his life now, and the life he never wanted at that, but at least he got to be with his brother. Even if he didn't exist.

Yeah, so looking back on what Juliett had been saying, perhaps telling her they moved from Anchorage was not the best idea ever. Her reply made his stop for a second in thought when she talked about the summers. It took him s moment, but he got what she was saying eventually. He did. She brought it up due to his tanned skin right? Either way Khristioph didn't answer. He would figure something out to tell her if she ever asked again. But hopefully she wouldn't. Oh, he did enjoy he smile though, after he complimented her on the cookies. The way her cheeks flushed and went the reddest shade of red. Adorable. He grinned back at her, though didn't say a thing. There was so much going on; first tony bringing in a new visitor, then Savannah talking and pouring milk, and Arianna who decided to make her fabulous appearance and bug him about crumbs.

Of course he should not be bothered over such a t rival thing, although he couldn't help it. It was somewhat embarrassing and further embarrassing that Arianna had pointed it out. He frowned when he looked at where she pointed to her own mouth to show him where on his face the crumbs were. ''Oh, right. Thanks...'' Khris responded quietly, raising both hands up to wipe one after the other across his mouth. He wouldn't have any more cookies now. He just stood there letting everyone go about what they were doing. He was doing nothing, though smiled when Juliett spoke again. Khris decided that he wouldn't answer that question she had either, so he left it up for someone else to answer and slowly started moving around the kitchen to leave the room.

As he got to the door he stopped and turned back to everyone. Savannah had left the kitchen a couple of moments ago and now he was going to leave as well. He didn't know what to say for a second, and he felt hungry again. Hearing his stomach give a low rumble was most annoying since there was no way he would cook himself something to eat in front of all these people. Khris just sighed, before he figured out what he would do. He would announce that he was leaving the house, then take a nice long stroll into town, where he spotted a little cafe yesterday near the grocery store.

''Alright. I think I'm going to head out. Pop into town. Get some more milk and groceries, and maybe get a bite of breakfast from that cafe while I'm there.'' Khris told them and nodded. ''There is no need to come with me.'' He added to make sure that none of the team opted to come. ''It was nice to meet you both.'' He spoke to the neighbors. ''I'll probably see you around... Or at the ball thing tomorrow.'' He smiled at Colin first then at Juliett. His gazed lingered for a few seconds. It was too bad that he really wanted to be out of here and sat in front of a good meal right now, otherwise he might have stayed to get to know her better.

• Business required acting. If there was one thing the special agents were screened to do was to act. Long before their mission was in place they were each required to take acting classes and were formally screened before being let out in the field. A special agent in this department, really, was no different than a government spy. So, why continue to live a life that involved entanglements of lies? It was for the salary of course. All for his – their – mother. Eli was old enough to know how hard it was for the frail woman to raise two boys and work many jobs. At least when he was recruited by the government he was able to send large sums of money home. His mother knew that he worked in the special services, but was unaware of what exactly he did. It was better this way, for her safety. However, the true joy was carrying the knowledge that his mother was able to move out of their old trailer home and into a safer, nicer neighbourhood. Not only that but knowing that his mother did not have to work as hard was a relief. She had worked hard enough for years and it was about time her boys had began to take care of her.
  
  Now that he had neared the two individuals he could make out their features with the lights that the three carried. The wolves were smart, to say the least. They really were blending into society but only a blind man would be fooled, which would be the average human. Thanks to Ariana and Lillian’s collections he knew very well just the two alphas he was talking too including their names, and hell even their blood types. “Barrow does not cease to amaze me. Everyone in this town have nothing but kind to my family. Thank you so much for you help! Pardon my intrusion on your walk.” Elijah let out a light chuckle which seemed to echo in the frosty darkness. “Pleasure to meet you Robby,” Elijah spoke holding out his hand before the two shook hands, despite wearing gloves. “Yes I am. We, my family and I, just moved in. Word travels fast in a small town.” Elijah exclaimed and if they could see, he had raised both his eyebrows. Elijah was quite animated when he wanted to be, but of course he was being friendly. What he needed way a way to get in with the Alphas. To show them that he was just an ordinary human., which was very exhausting mentally as Elijah was a very reserved man and did not prefer chatting as much unless he truly needed to.
  
  However he did notice that the male alpha was much more talkative than the female. She seemed more wry of him and could he blame her? Not at all, especially because Barrow rarely had residents from the outside move in. However, the fishing industry was booming and Elijah had the best believable story. No one would be able to resist just how real it truly sounded and it was, because he had taken over the company with the government of course. “I thought I knew my way around but it seems I’m pretty lost.” Robin was a very nice man, it seemed and easily trusted humans. What a great advantage. “I thought I was heading in the right direction towards town. The woman of the house sent me on an errand to go grab her a few things, if you know what I mean. Especially with the winter storm approaching, it’s better to be stocked on supplies.” Elijah said before laughing. “That and I could use some fresh air from my family.” Elijah said all in good humor. Hopefully, they knew exactly what he was talking about. It couldn’t get any easier than that. A female, one he was to marry, sending him out on a personal errand. It could only mean one thing. . . . it was almost that time of the month again!
  
  Honestly, he didn’t know Savannah’s monthly schedule, but it was the only thing he could come up with on the spot and it was a valid reason nonetheless and a great save on his part. Taking a deep breath, he felt the buzz in his pocket. “Oh. I think that’s her now.” He said taking off his gloves to fish out his phone. Luckily for him, his raven tattoo was on the back of his shoulder. Juggling the flashlight into one hand he was able to read his message and in a way that only he would be able to read. The cell phone display light was a bright light in the darkness and in a matter of seconds he sent her back a reply before swiftly putting a way his phone and putting his gloves back on. “Well, you know what they say. You can never keep a woman waiting.” Eli said with a half-smile.

• XXXXXXThe next thing he knew, Marc had pushed his way past James and was now walking towards him. Oh, Luca wanted nothing more than to die at that exact moment. It didn’t make it any better that the first thing the other did was put his arms securely around his neck. Luca wasn’t totally sure what to do and he ended up just standing there for a second or two while the other had his arms around him. Then it hit him that just standing there was going to hurt Marc’s feelings, so he loosely wrapped his arms around the other’s back. He glanced up to see James looking at him and he could tell by the look in his eyes that something was really wrong. Oh, no. This wasn’t what he needed to happen this morning. He made a mental note to speak to James since he was obviously upset.
  
  XXXXXX“I’ve missed you too.” Luca said quietly to the other. He leaned his head down slightly. He did miss Marc; he always missed him when they weren’t together. That was one of the main things that he thought about when he wanted everyone to know about them. They could spend more time together if they didn’t have to hide out so much, but it looked like that was a thing of the past. Luca couldn’t help but think about what Marc was doing at the house. He wanted to pull back so that he could look at his face, but Marc’s grip on him was a little too tight. “What are you doing here?” He asked, not that he didn’t want him to be there. It was just sudden that he would show up without any message telling him to be ready. He actually wished that Marc had told him first. At least then he wouldn’t be standing there embarrassed because his hair was a mess and he was wearing training pants.
  
  XXXXXXBefore Marc replied to him though he said something that Luca was dreading. Ugh. He noticed. Luca’s face was burning while the other spoke. Luca shook his head a little. “I’ve been up for a little while.” He tried to play it off and not show Marc how he actually felt. He knew that to Marc it was probably nothing. “I sent you that text just after I got up.” He said just trying to give the other a thought of how long he’d been up. There had been more than enough time for him to go get a shower, but the way he woke up getting dressed wasn’t exactly at the top of his priority list. He was just too irritated earlier. It didn’t help at all when Marc leaned forward and started messing with his hair. “Yeah.” He said in reply to the comment about him needing to get a shower to fix his hair. God. He wanted to die.
  
  XXXXXX“Uhmm..” Luca paused for a moment while Marc spoke about making him breakfast. “I’ve actually already eaten.. Well a banana. I’ve had a banana this morning.” He really didn’t need breakfast, but it did give Marc something to do while he was in the shower other than oddly sitting around and getting death stares from James. He nodded though and smiled when Marc kissed his cheek before he started walking away. “I love you too.” As he spoke he noticed that James was following him though and the look on his face made Luca nervous. When his brother mouthed a word to him he just shrugged. He knew that a few years ago James and Marc had gotten into it, but really it didn’t matter now. That wasn’t going to change what was happening now or how he felt. He did follow James though.
  
  XXXXXXJust as he thought would happen James started in on Marc, and Racheal stepped in to try and stop him but Luca knew that it wouldn’t help that much. Luca sighed and stood in the doorway looking at his brother. “James.” He said only to get the other’s attention. He wanted him to know that he was serious. No matter how James felt about Marc it wasn’t going to change the relationship that he had with him. The look James gave him though immediately irritated him. It was the look that he always got because James basically told him that he knew better. “Lucas.” The other said in the same exact tone that he had just used. Luca rolled his eyes and sighed. “I’m going to get a shower. You be nice to him.” That earned a sigh from James, but Luca didn’t care. He turned around and walked towards the stairs before he could say anything.

Caitlin was in the worst possible mood and Daniel swearing at her didn't make it much better. She yelped as she was shoved horribly off the bed. A growl slipped out of her mouth seconds later and she swore back at him. ''What the ******** was that?'' Her green colored eyes formed a dark scowl while she stayed on the floor, pushing herself up onto her elbows. She eyed him and wanted to smack him, but she didn't move. ''Are you happy now?'' he'd asked her. Did she look damn well happy? She scoffed as he rolled over to face the wall. ''No.'' She snapped. ''And I'm not going anywhere.''

Even though Cat knew that he wanted to go back to sleep, she was not going to let him get away with shoving her so roughly. She could have really ended up hurt, all because he couldn't control himself. Unless he did that on purpose, which was more than likely. Caitlin sighed under her breath and stopped looking at him. She picked up his pillow and hugged it under her arms.Tiredness and irritation continued to wash through her and though she know that she was the one who had caused this situation, she still blamed him.

It was worse when he stood up from the other side of the bed, back to her, and she her heart pounded faster. She couldn't see his face, but knew that he was probably still angry and that was unsettling. ''Daniel.'' She tempted, hoping for a more pleasant reaction. Then he spoke and though it wasn't bad, it still wasn't that much of a nice one. He wanted a shower now and she just felt like they should talk. ''Ummm.'' She began to say, getting to her feet with the pillow in hand. She tossed it back properly back onto the bed and then walked around it over to Daniel. ''I can't believe you pushed me.'' She told him when she was stood directly in front of him. Slap. A hand across his cheek. It was light enough not to leave a mark, but hard enough to leave an impression. ''Now say you are sorry.'' With that she smiled a little bit. Ah, he was so attractive and had lovely eyes. Caitlin couldn't help but stare into them and before he got moody again, she kissed him and enjoyed it.

Cupping his cheeks Caitlin had planted her lips on his and kissed him passionately and impulsively before pulling back. She had no idea where that had come from, but didn't dislike it.She glanced into his eyes for a sign of what he was feeling and then moved away. ''I'm sorry.'' She quietly said.''I think I'm just tired.'' Oh, like that explained her actions. Her feelings for Daniel were obviously more complicated than she realized. She gave an awkward smile and then went and picked up the blankets. Shaking, fumbling hands were a sign that she was anxious. Making his bed to mask her embarrassment, she didn't look at him at all. ''You know, you woke me up last night when you came in.'' She sighed.

Lillian was normally the first to lay down. Her body told her exactly when she should lay down to sleep and then it told her again when she needed to be awake. Everything about her life was set on an internal clock. She slept peacefully though the night and woke just before five am. The woman pulled her hair up into a ponytail and moved to sit at her desk. She flipped on the desk lamp and glanced at the files that were piled on her desk. She'd compiled them with Ariana and she knew what was in them but she opened them anyway.


Robin Pierson

This was Sebastian's brother. His pack consisted mostly of younger wolves. He was raising his son and a few kids that were dumped on him and he only had help from his brother and sister. The way to get to him would be through his son, Marcus.


It was Robin she was most interested about. She was trying to use information about him to get to Sebastian. She wanted to know more about their wolf side and getting him to open up was hard. It had been very hard to extract the whereabouts of the pack from him but he talked. They always talked.

She read over a few other files stopping to read another one a bit closer.


Daniel Thomas

This was a dangerous member of the pack. Much like poor Sebastian, he couldn't control his wolf. When Lillian was giving the okay to hunt. She would take Daniel first. His file listed things about him but no known weaknesses, not even his own sister.


The files held height, weights, traits, known weaknesses and the like. The rest of it the others would have to gather for their own. Either way, Lillian knew Sebastian and Daniel had to go first. She sat at her desk reading the files for a bit before she grabbed clothing and showered. Once she was clean and dressed, she pulled her hair back into a tight bun.

The darkness was all around them but her clock was telling her it was time to go check on their little pet. Lillian headed out the back and down toward the warehouses. When she reached the right one, she unlocked it and stepped inside. She could hear the wolfs light breathing as she drew nearer to the bars that kept him inside and them out.

Lillian looked at him for a moment watching him sleeping as peacefully as he could. She grabbed a bottle from a cabinet. It was bottle equipped with a sprayer and filled with only water. She unlocked the bars and stepped in. There was a smirk on her lips as she sprayed his face lightly, just enough to get a reaction. She drew her hand back and swung it forward. SMACK! The sound echoed around the room and she just grinned.

”Good morning, Darling,” she told him her voice dropping down to a playful tone. ”You've been asleep far too long.”

She gently threaded her fingers through his hair before tightening her hold and pulling just so his eyes were on her. ”Are you going to be good today? If you are, I'll let you move around a little.” She could easily overpower him, she'd been trained how to take care of his kind.

She also knew how irritating his bonds were and that if they left them on him, it would cause unnecessary pain. She wanted to kill the wolves as much as the next person because they were a danger but there was no need to treat them inhumanely. ”I want to know more about Marcus and Robin.” She flashed a grin that showed off her teeth. She wanted him to talk about them so she had more information to go off of.

• She was looking at James since he was the one who answered her questions. She had already ate about half of the cookie by the time he through the Apple at her, which she did manage to catch but in the process she dropped the cookie she had been eating. "Thanks for the apple, but now I have no cookie. I'll just have to eat the apple then. " She said with a grin. "You're right though, I should stick with the apple." She said as she walked back to her glass of milk. She needed to finish drinking it before it got to hot for her liking. "Oh, no you didn't wake me up. You were actually pretty quite this morning." She said with a quiet laugh towards Racheal. "I didn't even realize you already got up." Which was usually out of the ordinary. It was often that Caelie was woken up in the morning by her roommate. "Yeah that's what some people say sweets are the best. The cookie was tasty, well as much of it that I ate." She said kind of nervously. She didn't usually speak so much in the morning. "Juli should start making cookies more often." She said with a smile.
  
  Not long after finishing her milk she heard Colin coming down to the kitchen. Caelie had not really talked to Colin much, but that was manly because she was too shy to try talk to anyone. She barly even talked to her roommate Rachel, but she was hoping to try to change that. She wanted to try to get close to people in her pact, but her shyness always got the best of her.
  
  After a while Caelie walked over to the sink and rinsed her glass out. She then walked over to the trash can and threw away the remaining part of the apple that James had just gave her a few minutes ago. James and Luca had been gone for a bit now, she started to get curious about what was taking them so long to answer the door. She figured they would have just let let who ever was at the door inside. Unless something bad was going on, but since she had not heard any commotion she just figured they were just talking to the person at the door. She then decided to sit down at the table with Racheal.
  
  Caelie just sat there surprised by how fast things took place after everyone came back to the kitchen. She was surprised that Luca had a boyfriend, she figured that at least James would of told her about it. Then the thought crossed her mind that maybe James didn't know, everyone keeps secrets. It wasn't too out of the box to think that Luca would keep something from James. By the way that James was talking to Marc she figured that he didn't know anything about his relationship with Luca. It isn't that much of surprised maybe they just were not ready for it to be public yet. She could understand that. "Y-yeah I'm Caelie, and no I'm not with James we are just friends." She said with a small smile to be polite. Not long after she said that she heard knocking on the door, and decided she would go answer it since everyone else seemed preoccupied. Racheal was talking with Marc and apparently making sure James behaves a little. As she opened the door, she saw that she knew the person there was Isabelle or better known as Izzy, "Well, hello there Isabelle, would you like to come in?" Caelie said while stepping aside to let her in. She wondered what she might be doing at the house, but it didn't bother her. She got along well with her.

❁ Tony Danielson ❁
- - - The Cousin - - -


Tony could tell that Khris was upset with him. He could see the irritated look in his eyes. No one had ever seen the shift in Tony when he was putting up an act. It was like night and day with him. Normally he was the quiet, slightly somber, and dutiful soldier of the lord who prayed constantly and talked about his duty. But no one would think that Tony noticed this by the smile on his face and the flirty look in his eye. He knew just how to flip a switch and abandon his real personality for the façade of someone else. This was someone who was fun, flirty, came off as a little vapid, and had a wonderful knowledge about his body and how to use it to his advantage. Perhaps there were a few things about that, that God frowned on but the only one Tony acknowledged was lying. After all, that was the only real thing he was doing; lying to them all. But that was besides the point right now. Ariana walked in just as he was making a comment about hair and her quip make him chuckle. She was right. His buzz cut didn't allow for any hair to style. That was a hint as to what his usual profession was. He couldn't ever remember wearing his hair long. Priests always kept their hair clipped short. But that was a subtle thing he didn't figure anyone would pick up on so he kept doing things that way. There were some habits he just couldn't quit, even for an act. He even smiled when Savannah pushed him aside, chuckling a bit to himself. He was doing his best to help everyone keep up their acts and he was pretty sure he was convincing.

Colin and Juliette were both sitting at the table and Tony was enjoying the cookies she made. Savannah quickly made herself scarce. She probably had important work to do but Tony didn't mind entertaining a little longer. Ariana was around and so was Khris but frankly, he wasn't at all worried about these two. After all, the only real hunters here were the Edwards. When he asked what there was to do in Burrow, Colin was the one to speak up. What he said made Tony chuckle to himself. "What? Colin..." He said the name like a chastising mother. "There HAS to be more to do than that. Can't we go looking for Yeti's and go skiing and...is there some kind of dance hall?" He blinked in confusion. "If not I'm so disappointed. I'm going to yell at Elijah later." Tony let out a long sigh. "I could always just hang out with you guys right?" He smiled wide, grinning at Juliette and Colin. "I'm sure you all do all kinds of fun things. And I can make it even more fun!" He was using innuendos again. It was shortly after that, that Khris decided he was going to go into town. Huh. That frustrated huh? Khris didn't seem to be too into playing a role like the rest of them. Too honest of a guy. That truly was a virtue to be commended but it wasn't doing well in serving their mission. For a moment Tony mused on how often God smiled upon the very things that made living an earthly life difficult. People like Khris were rare to be so virtuous despite the world they lived in but that was often at a detriment to themselves. Things really did work out in mysterious ways. Would Tony's choice to be deceitful make him the more productive member or would it be Khris' steadfast moral fiber? Only time would tell.

Tony was about to offer to go with him when he said no one needed to come with him. Well, someone was being a bit moody. "See ya, Khris!" He called after then turned to Ariana. "Someone wants to be alone I guess." Tony shrugged and winked at her before turning to Colin and Juliette again. "So what's this about a 'ball thing'? I'm always the last to hear about things. Ariana never tells me anything." He let out a dramatic sigh. "Oh hey, also. One of you two should go after Khris. He has a hard time in groups and likes one on one talk." He pointed at Juliette. "I think it should be you! He was definitely giving you the Khris stare." Tony nodded to himself and then looked at Ariana. "Don't you agree?" He was obviously leading her to agree with him. "And then I'll walk Colin here back home." There was another wink going Colin's way. "I should know where all of my new friends are going to be living. You want to come Ariana or you want to go help Savannah with whatever boring thing she's doing?" Tony was already starting to put his shoes on.

[BIEBERSAUR]

Laughing lightly at what Rachael said, Marc just nodded. ''Oh we've been together a while.''' He muttered joyfully. His eyes flicking away from Caelie to address the brunette girl. If he wasn't gay then maybe she would take his fancy, but then if he wasn't gay then there would be no Luca and he loved his baby, Luca. Life without him would be very. very sad and he refused to imagine it. The whole reason Marc had come to the house was to make the statement of 'I'm ready to share everything with you.' He had thought about it on his walk and had decided that after three months of being with him, there was little to no chance of getting hurt.

As soon as Caelie replied Marc started to laugh. ''Phew!'' He said with an immediate grin to his lips. He liked her even more now. ''I'm glad. Because from what I've seen, he's a little psychotic.'' It was then that Rachael got his attention to point out that James was behind him while he was speaking. Too late. He couldn't cover his tracks.James had heard everything that he had said to the girls and took it on himself to respond to it. ''Ah. Hi Jamie, I didn't see you there.'' Marc just smiled as he turned around to face him. What was the guy following him now? He wanted to say something about it, but then he spotted Luca watching them from the doorway of the kitchen. Oh yay. His fabulous boyfriend was defending him and that built up his confidence.

''Luca, it's okay.'' Marc assured him. Giving him a long lingering look he waited for him to go and then gasped loudly at the sudden poke from Rachael. Wow. He couldn't believe that she had poked him in the cheek. His eyes grew big and he slowly turned his attention toward her. ''Cute?'' He scoffed pretending to be offended. He wasn't; in face he actually liked that someone was paying attention. ''Oh, you think I'm pretty?'' He laughed and poked her back in the cheek. ''Am I prettier than... James?'' Raising his eyebrows in question, he shook his head and continued laughing. Of course James was pretty. Luca was the pretty one. not Marc. And them being twins meant that Marc had to give the guy some credit.He stopped laughing as much and then spoke about it. ''Yeah, sadly I think Jamie wins the pretty contest, but Luca is forever the star, you know.'' Marc finished and glanced at James.

Marc hoped that he had made his point to Rachael, because when he looked at James he felt anger building up inside him. Was he just going to keep standing there watching him like that? Marc hated being watched, but even more than that he hated him. He felt himself getting hot and then he had to say something. ''I think you need to get a life.'' He growled under his breath. ''Watching people like some kind of weirdo. That is not cool. Unless..'' Oh an evil smile. ''You're jealous?'' Marc laughed purposely and then added. ''Anyway what were you saying before?'' He started tempting fate and moving a bit closer. ''You think I don't have a right to be here?'' Leaning into his face, he eyed him and smiled. ''No. I think that's you.'' He uttered and patted his cheek.

Marc took a step back and started to ramble as James grabbed his hand away from his face. ''Ooh touchy, touchy.'' Marc cooed. ''I guess you can't handle the truth, huh? Because look I know that I don't own the place, but I have more than a right to be here than you do... since Esther is my Auntie. We are related by blood. And you, you are just here because you have nowhere else to go. She doesn't even love you; she loves Luca. In fact. No one loves you,'' He paused and scowled. still trying to hold his ground with him. ''Luca might care about you, but you are his twin; he has no choice in the matter. He loves me more though, anyway. I'm his mate and there is nothing you can do about it. He belongs to me now.''

Marc turned his back on him, he rubbed the side of his jaw and chuckled to himself. Oh he did good and for a second he thought that he had gotten away with it, and then he as he turned back to him he got punched. Ow. He fell backwards and shielded his mouth. James had whacked him in the jaw, and as he did Marc bit his lip and tasted blood in his mouth. Ugh. A moment later James began speaking and Marc didn't completely listen. He felt him self getting hotter and he just reacted. He rugby tackled him into the kitchen counter, so James' back got rammed into the surface, then Marc's hand then lifted up onto the counter and snatched up the first thing that he could get hold of - a knife. Pressing the sharp blade to James' throat, he glared into his eyes and growled. ''You know nothing about me and Luca, so I'd stop talking if I were you.'' It was hard for Marc to stay calm right now. He felt threatened and like James was going to take Luca away from him. He started shaking as he dug the blade a bit firmer against James' neck. ''I know what you are trying to do and you will not take him from me!''

[ADRENALiNE R U S H__x]

• XXXXXXRight so just because this little s**t was a guest or something it was automatically James’ fault that all of this was happening. He scowled when he heard Racheal tell him to ‘be nice.’ Ugh. “Because I’m the one that’s calling people psychos.” James muttered to himself. God, this morning he had thought that this day couldn’t get any worse, but apparently that did nothing but challenge the universe. Next thing he knew Luca was standing behind him obviously not happy that he had been telling off his boyfriend, but to be honest James didn’t care. It wasn’t his fault that Luca had to pick the worst guy possible. “Lucas.” He said mocking his brother’s tone. One day his twin would see that yeah he got worked up about things, but that was only because he could see things that the other couldn’t. Marc was not good news and James just wanted everyone, especially Luca, to know that.
  
  XXXXXXThankfully Luca left and not a few seconds later the doorbell rang and Caelie excused herself to get it. James moved out of her way when she walked through. He would have given her a small smile if he hadn’t felt like he was in the middle of a battle field. Marc on one side with everyone and James on the otherside by himself. He didn’t care that no one else could see it, what was wrong with Marc--which was just about everything. His voice, his face, and his attitude every single one of them pointed to trouble in James’ mind. The worst part was that he kept bringing him up. If anything was said to him he had to say something about ‘James’ or ‘Jamie.’ Which did nothing but infuriate him. So, James was the one picking the fights when the other wouldn’t keep his name out of his mouth. He just kept going too. James had his hands balled into tight fists and he kept his jaw clenched. He was about ready to start something that would get him in trouble but at the moment he didn’t even care.
  
  XXXXXXTurns out he didn’t have to start it. Marc turned around and spoke to him and it was more than enough incentive for James to start on him. He couldn’t help but let out an obviously fake laugh. “I’m the one that needs to get a life?” He said arching an eyebrow staring straight into the other’s face. “You’re the one that won’t keep my damn name out of your mouth.” James said, saying the exact thing that was on his mind. Maybe he would have been able to cool off and let it go had the other not continued to drag him into everything. It didn’t stop there though. James just laughed again because the other had the guts to say that he was jealous. “Jealous?” He said in a voice of disbelief. “You think in a million years I’d be jealous over you.” He said with a laugh. “I could walk out of the house and pick up someone a hundred times better than you.”
  
  XXXXXXThe other started moving closer to him and James growled quietly. Then when the other’s hand was patting his cheek he reached up and slapped it away. “Touchy, touchy me again and see what happens.” He said in a tone that started sounding mocking but quickly moved to threatening. Then Marc continued and it didn’t take a rocket scientist to see that he was trying to push his buttons. The only thing was that Marc obviously didn’t know anything about James. He’d already come to terms with the fact that Luca is his only family, and Marc trying to push his buttons about it didn’t actually get him all that worked up. “Well it’s good thing I accepted the fact a long time ago that my family is dead. I don’t have to have someone who loves me to live and feel fulfilled.” James said sneering slightly. His upper lip twitched with the urge to bare his teeth. Marc just didn’t stop though and he brought up Luca. For someone who supposedly cared about him so much he didn’t have a problem with using him as a trigger. Except this time it actually worked.
  
  XXXXXXAfter the other turned away James was seething. His fists were balled up so tight he could feel his nails break the skin in his palm and when he noticed the other starting to turn back towards him he didn’t waste any time. He reared his arm back and landed a punch straight on the other’s jaw. It felt satisfying. Gosh, he just wanted to punch him from the moment that he showed up at the door. “You’d think if he loves you so much, you wouldn’t be so okay with talking about him how you do.” James growled at the other as he pulled himself back together after the punch. “He belongs to you?” James said in disbelief. “That sounds like a great way to talk about your supposed mate.” James said rolling his eyes. “I mean God. I expected Luca to end up with someone who was more of a man.” James said shrugging. He decided that maybe it was his turn to push buttons.
  
  XXXXXX“So,” James said not letting his eyes move away from the other. He changed his tone slightly. “Luca belongs to you?” He paused for a second as if he was thinking. “That’s a long way off from where I expected you to be. I mean. You didn’t want anyone to know you were dating, right?” He asked arching an eyebrow. “The least Luca could do was find someone who wasn’t too much of a pansy to tell everyone that he’s gay and has a boyfriend.” James was deliberately teasing him now. He had no idea why they hadn’t told anyone about their relationship, but he knew that Luca was uncomfortable with it. It had to be something about Marc then, right?
  
  XXXXXXJames didn’t really get a chance to to continue; not that he should have. Marc tackled him into the counter. He growled at him. “What are you going to do? Try and kiss me again?” He felt the sharp edge of a blade against his neck. He wasn’t serious was he? “I know more than you think I know.” He couldn’t honestly think that Luca wouldn’t have told him anything. As he had already pointed out Luca was the only person that James had. He felt the knife harder against him and he gritted his teeth. “It looks like you are doing a good enough job of that on your own. I won’t have to ‘take him away’ from you.” James said staring at the other. He was against the counter at an awkward angle since he was a little bit taller. He forced out a laugh though. “Do it if you’ve got the guts.” James said challenging him. Not it wasn’t because he actually wanted it to happen it was because he knew that Marc wouldn’t. “It’s a great idea to try and kill your boyfriend’s brother.” James said giving the other an obviously fake smile.

If someone ever went through Juliett’s ipod they’d probably find more soft-spoken music. Ever since she had been young she had always been shy, but she had found a way to connect with individuals without speaking. It was the small acts of kindness, for example, like during kindergarten Juliett would tie the shoelaces for another kindergarten and then staying patient as she taught them how to do it for their self. No wonder teaching was right up her alley. That and she had a killer ear for hearing her children cry out in pain if they had fallen or were hurt; which only meant, that she had heard the low grumble from Khristoph’s stomach, and she was sure Colin probably had. The hearing of a werewolf was very acute and especially more so if they focused in on sounds. When Khris made the move to leave, Juliett felt a sense of disappointment as he spoke of his plans from the doorway of the kitchen. Yet, as he finished his goodbyes his gaze stopped on her own gaze and all she really could do was stare. In the past she would have been quick to turn away her emerald eyes when she made eye contact with most guys, but for some reason she wanted to look away but couldn’t. Instead, her heart skipped a few beats. It was the only body signal she needed to have to know that she was physically attracted to this new man in town. As he left, she stared at where he had once stood, before looking at Tony as he spoke of the ball.

“It is an event, hosted by the Mayor of Barrow. The Christmas ball has went back many generations and it’s a way for the community to stay together as one. The lights and decorations are always very beautiful. Essentially, it is a great way to mingle.” Juliett said softly. “Really? Sounds kind of bland to me. Fancy parties, that is.” Ariana said. Just as Tony spoke about Khristoph giving her, Juliett, the Khris stare her cheeks flushed. However, she hadn’t realized that she was already out her chair and headed towards the front entrance. “Then I shall leave Colin in your hands Tony.” Juliett smiled, before giving Colin’s shoulder a squeeze. “I’ll see you all soon.” Juli said with another warm smile before heading down the corridor toward the entrance to find Khristoph putting on his coat. Thankfully, she had stayed bundled although she was feeling pretty sweaty with the heat in the home. “I would like to accompany you if it's no burden.” She said to him. “I know the area like the back of my hand and I know the best cafe in town, although truly, it’s the only one we have.” She said holding up her gloved hand. She wasn’t so sure what he was thinking, but all she really feared was rejection because she knew he didn’t want anyone tagging along, however, Khristoph held open the door for her and she stepped outside into the cold with flashlight in hand she let out a sigh of relief. How embarrassing would it have been if he had said no?

Turning on her flashlight she fell into stride alongside Khristoph. The best part about darkness was she’d be able to see him but he wouldn’t be able to see her face. Well, one that wasn’t entirely true because with the light of their flashlights they’d be able to see each other pretty well and two, that thought just sounded super creepy. Taking in a deep breath she smiled, not that he’d be able to see the smile anyways. “Earlier,” She started. “You hadn’t answered my question which is quite alright. But I am curious to know.....Have you left someone behind that you didn’t want to? Moving to Barrow with your older brother because of his own business takes a lot of love from his family members.” She could only imagine dropping everything and leaving. No. She could never leave the family she has here or if she does she would have to stay in contact. A part of Juliett wanted to see the world, but another part of her was afraid of many things. “I'm sorry if I seem invasive, you don’t have to answer anything you don’t want too.” Juliett said biting her bottom lip. "Or maybe I'm just too curious," she mumbled to herself.

As Daniel got out of the bed, he heard Cat say his name. He glanced over his shoulder to look at her, the anger still there in his eyes. He was irritated because he'd been out late and he was upset that she'd woken him. He hear the pillow hit the bed as he gathered up his clothing for a shower. When he was done, he was facing the door and she was in front of him.

Caitlin told him the she couldn't believe he'd pushed her. Daniel felt a smirk on his lips as he looked at her but she raised her hand and he knew what was coming. SLAP. Her hand connected with the side of his face and it was enough to make Daniel twist his head away, but it hadn't really hurt. As he turned back to look at her, his upper lip curved up into a snarl. His snarl sounded more animal than human because the wolf was taking over. The anger spiked through him making him quiver as he tried to hold his wolf side in. She told him to say sorry and Daniel wanted to yell but before he could do anything, her lips were on his.

The snarling stopped instantly.

Her lips were soft and the kiss was enough to leave him wordless. He didn't understand why she was kissing him in the first place but he would be lying if he said it didn't make him feel good. He'd started to relax a little before she pulled away. She'd just calmed the storm raging inside him. She had her hands on his cheeks and Daniel wasn't sure but he felt overly warm. Was he blushing?!

When she pulled away she searched his eyes and Daniel was sure there was no emotion in them at all. Nothing that would betray the confusion he was feeling inside. His heart was pounding out of control and his cheeks were a rosy color. He just looked at her for a moment before she apologized and said she was just tired. She smiled at him, though it was awkward, it was kinda cute. When she picked the blankets up off the floor, Daniel just stood there.

He wasn't sure what he should be doing but he was feeling all the confusion. Then she told him that he'd woken her when he came in last night. Daniel looked away from her and studied the door for a moment. ”I'm... uh... I'm sorry.” he told her before he left her in his room alone. Daniel hid in the bathroom for a moment making sure to lock the door before he took a shower to scrub all the dirt from the nightly run away from his skin. Once he was clean, he turned off the shower, dried and headed back toward his room.

He was hoping that Cat was long gone but he had no idea where she would be. Edging closer to his room, his heart started to beat a little faster. What had she just done to him? He'd never felt like this before and the emotions inside him were swirling fast, confusing him. How was he supposed to feel about this?
