What Goes Bump In The Night

"W-what?"



"Werewolves, Igg. Fucking filthy, bloodthirsty rogue pack that was chased off years ago. All of us were about ten to twelve when they came in. They picked off humans, fertiles, even a few Doms. They got my mom and sister, Chris's dad, Andy's little brother and sister; they almost got Vicky, Amy, and myself. Those fuckers are all dead this time around." I didn't like the way his eyes seemed to fill with hate and rage; it made me even more uneasy about the situation.



"Cool it, Michael; you're scaring her even more." I was flicking my tail nervously, my ears twitching. He sighed, quietly pulling me to him in a hug.




"I'll never take my anger out on you; I'm sorry I'm scaring you, I just really hate them." He kissed the top of my head, almost silently whispering the words.




"It's okay. I promise, it's okay." I leaned my head against his shoulder for a few seconds before he let go of me, looking at the others a little wearily.





"We have to get rid of them for good, this time. We can't have a repeat of the last time they were here. A rogue pack is a threat to everyone; non-rogue wolves, vamps, demons, even the Fae and others like them. They have to be killed."







"Kuza, we can't-"



"We have to, Ames. I'm not going to let anyone else have to go through that."





"We're going to need lots of blessed silver, then." Everyone seemed to have reached a silent agreement about the issue.






"Let's get some rest, okay? They're probably going to pull some trick to blend in, so we'll need the rest." I let Mike walk me to my room, giving him one more hug, curling my tail around his waist.






"I'm sorry if I scared you, Iggy. I just want to keep you safe from them."





"It's okay, Mike. I was more shocked than anything; you really hate them, don't you?"



"I do. They killed my mom, and I just- I just really, really miss her, and now they're back... I don't want anyone else having to grow up with one or both of their parents or their siblings dead. I don't want anyone having to live without their mate."













"It's gonna be okay, Mike. It's gonna be perfectly okay. Goodnight." I gave him a light kiss on the cheek, letting go of him.




"Night, Iggy." I shut the door after he left, changing into an over-sized shirt and curled up in my bed, contently sighing as I closed my eyes.





~~~ I could feel the cold metal against my shoulder, leaving a trail of sparks each time he pressed his lips to my skin. He was radiating warmth compared to the relative chill of the dark room, and I pressed back against him, his hands rubbing my hips. I turned over to face him, an arm around his neck as I kissed him.


His hands traveled up my body, pushing the thin night shirt up over my chest. He left small kisses down my skin until he reached my breasts, biting and lightly sucking on one as he held the other in his hand. He switched what he was doing until I pushed him onto his back, throwing my shirt somewhere in the room before straddling his waist and nipping teasingly at his neck, feeling him getting harder under me through the cotton shorts I had on.





"Somebody's happy to see me." I murmured against his skin, rocking my hips teasingly.




"Why wouldn't I be happy to see my beautiful little fertile?" His hands trailed over my body, one at my hip, the other on my-

BRIING BRIING BRIING!



I blindly reached out and slammed my hand down on the alarm until I hit the snooze button, burying my head under pillows and blankets. I felt kind've feverish, and my stomach was cramping horribly, like if I was the idiot who waited ten seconds after eating to swim. I pushed it off, standing and walking to the bathroom, hoping a hot shower would help to get the cramping to go away.








Wrapping a towel around my damp body, I walked back into my room and got dressed in a pair of ripped jeans, a modified Hatebreed shirt, and black and red checked converse. I did my makeup and threw on a beanie before grabbing my bag(unfinished homework included) and walking to the kitchen where Amy and Ash stood talking quietly. I grabbed a cup of coffee and started to down it quickly before we had to leave for school.






"Your scent's... Different, today, Iggz..." I cocked an eyebrow at Ash, who was looking at me a little confused.




"I swear to Lucifer- are people still that hung up on how I smell?"






"She's right though... You smell... Sweet, almost. Wait. I know why!"




"Enlighten me, then, O Wise One."




"Smart ass. Anywhore, you, my dear little kitten, are in heat!" She gave me a pay on the head like you would a dog, making my ears flick and eyes narrow.






"In heat...?"



"Neko period, basically." Oh, joy!




I heard footsteps coming down the hall, Mike walking in a few seconds later. He must've stayed the night. He walked over by me, since I was in front of the coffe pot, and he stiffened suddenly, as if he was trying not to breathe. He got his coffee and stood on the far side of the kitchen, focusing more on the dark liquid in his cup than anything else. I sat my now empty cup in the sink and decided to try and get the rest of my homework done.





Once everyone, well, everyone who walked, was ready, we set off, Mike staying further back than normal. I brushed away the slight pang in my chest, feeling my skin start to itch and heat up. I bit my lip and waited it out, and eventually it finally ebbed halfway through Lit, making me sigh in relief. I was just drawing in my sketch book, since I was already way ahead of the rest of the class.




The image on the paper was slowly taking form, looking more and more realistic as I shaded in certain areas and dug through my bag quickly for a colored pen, filling in the irises and then taking a black one to the portrait to highlight it.




The bell rang and I slid all of my things back into my bag, not even bothering to check the drawing I did; I could look at it later. I walked into the lunch room and took my usual seat, slightly hurt that Mike was at the other end of the table. Andy smiled at me until I had leaned over the table slightly, then he did the same thing Mike did and moved.



That doesn't affect a girl's self-esteem at all.




None of the other Doms seemed to be effected by me; Vicky was too busy making goo-goo eyes at Ash and vice-versa, Chris and Amy were talking about something in quiet whispers, and everyone who had a mate was generally just doing couple things. I decided to look at the picture I'd drawn, so I dug through my bag until I found the sketch book, opening it to the drawing.






/I don't know who this person is!/ I took in the way that the face was shaped, the way the eyes slanted a bit, and they were familiar, yet they weren't.






I decided to close my book and then the bell rang, signaling us that we had four minutes to get to class. I walked down the hall that FH was in and was maybe three or four meters from the door when the same Dom from the other day stepped in front of me.






"Hello, pikkuinen."



"Look, I don't know who you are, I don't know what you want from me, but I'm. Not. Interested." This guy, Voldemort, Valery, whatever his name is, was scaring me and I was ready to bring the claws out.





"I love how you think you can hurt me. You're a fertile, Iggy Elizabeth Morgue." Okay, now he's gone past creepy and hit creepy whack job psycho.




"I'll tear you apart right now if you don't get away from my mate, Valkoinen." Mike's voice was almost too calm for the words he just said, and I could feel the hate radiating off of him. Valkoinen didn't move away from me, rather he laughed in amusement as Mike stepped closer, grabbing my arm and pulling me behind him.





"Your's? If I'm correct, Michael, she's still unmated. There's not even a protective mark on her; she's yet to be claimed by any Dom. She's fair game, and you're a bit late to join the chase. There's already quite a few Doms with their eyes on her." Mike growled, a low, dark sound escaping his throat, and he pushed me further back, his eyes turning black as he advanced on Valkoinen.





"You and your filthy mutts will stay away from her, or I will put you and your entire pack down like the damn animals you are. You're not going to take anyone else from me."







"We both know you're too weak to do anything. You couldn't save her last time, you won't save Iggy this time." In a split second, Mike had him by the throat, throwing him across the hall and into a row of lockers. Valkoinen stood up and he smiled. He fucking smiled, and I'd never been more unnerved or scared. He looked like he was getting ready to run at Mike, but if he did, I was almost positive someone was going to die.






"Back the fuck off, you mangey mutt!" I was in between them now, glaring at him and ready to fuck him up.




"Stay the fuck away from me, my mate, and our friends, or I will take my time ending your life. You are not going to do anything to me, to him, or to anyone. I will know, and I will kill you all." He seemed a bit shocked, but it wore off quickly.





"As you wish, then." His words dripped with sarcasm, and he turned on his heel and walked off.



"Remind me to never make you mad... I value my life and my balls..."






"Why have you been avoiding me all day?"
