Tonight is a night in which those murders shed their disguise to run free as wolves. They stick their muzzles into the human’s life blood. As they dine on the warm life blood destroy them so no more harm comes to those who bring our success. Let them know who is boss of the night. Put them in their place my dear Cassie. Put them in their place and watch as they bow before you begging for mercy. “ Put them in their place,” Cassie murmured. She pressed her tongue, against fang drawing forth the sweet taste of blood. All around her walked the humans going about there usual business not aware that their lives were in danger. Cassie scanned the path ahead of her. She sensed no scent of werewolf or other fangs. Where are the others like me I might need their help tonight in destroying as many of those mutts as I can. I wish master Eric was still leading the clan for he was a warrior but that man he left as his heir he has no right leading. This Zachary is not a warrior he is a bum who tries to take our concentration away from the duties sat before us by the true leader. My life is mine so there is no way in hell that I will become under his spell and forget what those dirty beasts did to my family sixteen years ago. I heard that he is going into negations with the Grand Alpha Girthed, well if I can help it there will be no negations ever. From the other rumors being whispered I hear that Zachary is trying to get my hand in marriage but so far Michael has denied him five times already. Pathetic little imp. Movement suddenly caught her eye making her turn her head like an owl would when it has its prey in sight. In the entrance of an alley was a ball of fur the color of blood. Cassie sniffed the air and caught two scents. The first was of a werewolf and the second of human blood , female blood. Cassie concentrated hard on her movements so she could float high enough above the ground to make sure the werewolf would not hear her approaching. As she came closer to the dirty beast that crouched in the alley her vision sharpened so she could make out what was happening. The werewolf was feeding on a girl no older than six years of age and it seemed that he had strangled her. But what brought tears to her eyes was how the girl still clung tight to the raged teddy bear as if it would protect her. “ Hey fur ball you want a real dinner turn around and feast on me,” Cassie hissed. She drew her gun from its’ holster and raised it aiming for the werewolf’s heart. The wolf turned around with pure hatred in his large golden eyes. He looked totally horrifying with teeth bared and the blood dripping from the muzzle to land upon the ground. She was about to pull the trigger when the wolf jumped up knocking her down upon the ground. When she jumped to her feet she saw the mutt down at the end of the alley on his forelegs ready to pounce upon her. This going to be very ugly now that she had to get intimate with the mutt thanks to him making her lose her pistol. Cassie slipped off her cloak and pulled her sword from the scabbard. The moon made the silver blade glimmer all different colors confusing the wolf. “ Come on puppy, come play,” she snapped. The werewolf growled as it bounded towards her, claws stretched out in front of him. When the wolf was just a few inches away from her, Cassie front flipped over him coming down hard with her blade upon his shoulder. A howl escaped from the jowls of the smelly beast as it fell to the ground holding the wounded arm. Cassie raised the blade and was about to bring it down when the wolf spun around half way through transformation. The face was that of a young boy no older than ten but it didn’t matter he had killed a human and the law was the law. So with all her strength she brought the blade down. It went easily through his neck dislocating the head from the body. Slowly and carefully she picked up the girls body and flew upwards.
Kyle stood behind the bar filling glasses full of beer when Sarah rushed up her face a mask of worry. “ Kyle the BHI has just come in and he is in an even worse mood than last time there’s no telling how much of a fine he’ll slap on Rudy this time,” she gasped . She ushered him towards the back door. He quickly moved out into the alley and crouched behind the dumpster. The BHI has come in every month now and so far he has given Rudy two fines for two hundred dollars because he keeps me here. Well if I was Rudy I would have fired myself a while ago but that old man is stubborn. Hopefully that dang man can’t tell that I was here tending to the bar just to help out my late fathers old friend. But then again that Sarah is a clever one and I bet she covered up my musky male wolf scent. I wonder if she would go on a date with me I mean only as friends nothing more cause I would probably kill her if I got to close. She is beautiful and I could change her but there is no way she would live long enough thanks to that damn Grand Alpha Girthed. He would kill her since she is not even a pure breed wolf. Well if he didn’t murder her in cold blood then that gang of outlaws would without even a thought to it. But he did not feel anything for her. “ Well Rudy I’m glad you got rid of that mangy wolf that used to tend the bar,” a voice came. It came from the other side of the dumpster near the back door. “ Yeah well he became a darn nuisance with that disgusting musky smell he produced,” Rudy snapped. There was a hearty laugh that would have jiggled a belly like Santa’s. It was matched by a scratchy cackle that seemed to scare the crap out of him. The laugh faded as the sound of the back door slamming took its place. Kyle stayed crouched there behind the dumpster afraid that the BHI was still standing there without Rudy. A minute or so later the sounds of squealing tires came to his ears making him slam his palms to the sides as if it would help the loud ringing. The soft touch of warm human hands brought him to open his eyes. He lay sprawled out upon the ground shaking like a babies rattle. Slowly he looked up to see Sarah standing there with worry written upon her childish face. As she bent down and extended her hand the pin in her hair unclipped and her shoulder length lime green hair fell upon her shoulders. She looked like an out of place angel in the light pink dress she wore that was covered by a greasy apron. Ignoring her hand Kyle got to his feet and brushed off his blue jeans. He saw Rudy standing behind Sarah a look of concern upon his pale bony face but a smile of triumph in his glazed eyes. “ Well you two did a good job of not getting me another fine and for that I thank ya,” Rudy wheezed. Kyle lowered his head ashamed of allowing them to see one of his weaknesses. “ I’m sorry Rudy but it has gotten too dangerous for me to be working here so I quit, I know my father would be proud of what I have already done for you and to me that is enough,” he whispered. With out even waiting for other words to be said Kyle turned and walked out of the alley. Oh I know this is a dangerous thing to be doing since I barely have enough money to pay for my apartment, I’ll move under ground with the rest of my kin. But what if they smell human upon me will they attack? If I move underground into our city I will never see any of my friends again but if I stay up here one of these days I’m bound to kill a human and then oh then those vampires will carry out the law. The law both werewolves and vampires are bound to by blood of both first born kin. I love my life here and my mind is made I’m staying out in the world where I am at least partly welcome. All the to his apartment wonderful smells assaulted his nose but when he passed an alley near the new whore house the smell of dead werewolf came to take its turn. Kyle didn’t bother to stop he understood why the inexperienced wolf had died this night of all nights. The soft scent of a female vampire wafted towards him allowing him to know that a woman nights stalker had murdered the inexperienced wolf. A laugh rose in his throat as he strolled towards his apartment thinking about the reasons for a girl to carry out the law. A few blocks from his apartment a hooker rubbed up against him as she licked her lips as if hungry for flesh. She smelt of whiskey and other male wolves. “ Get off of me you slut I don’t want any from you and even if I did I wouldn’t pay for it,” he growled. He shoved her off him so he could continue on to his den.
Cassie landed in front of the main mansion with the girls body help tight against her chest. Although she was dead there was still a little life left in the girl meaning that blood still remained. The warmth left in her body felt pleasing upon cool skin, reminding her of that which she protects. I’m so sorry little one I was to late to save you but I won’t make that mistake again and neither will the others. I am going to challenge that pathetic imp to prove he is unfit. No more parties just business with the law. But I need to contact Michael about it first he is like my father and his rule is what I follow. I’ll bury this girl after the rights are preformed by our elders, those who have wisdom beyond my years. The guard dogs gave a whine of happiness when she passed them as a few puppies came pouncing out of the bushes. Cassies’ favorite puppy was covered in burs and twigs unlike the others who were perfectly groomed. The sight would have made you laugh if it was not for those big round golden eyes pleading for help. She just shook her head and continued towards the doors where three other night stalkers stood congregating with smiles upon their faces. As Cassie approached the boys stopped talking and turned their heads to give her a disapproving stare. The tallest of the group took a step towards her before he noticed the dead girl in her arms. “ Cassie you didn’t kill this girl did you?” he asked. “ No Brandon I did not, a werewolf murdered her to use as food…… I was too late to save her” she whispered. Slowly she wiped a tear from her eye. Brandon seemed to be on the verge of tears as he stared at the girl who still held the teddy out in front of her. “ That is so pathetic, I can’t believe that you two are crying over a dead human, that proves you will never lead any more than one unit of us” the youngest sneered. “ No Mark it proves that I have a heart and I do my job given to me by Eric, I don’t go to parties and give up on those we swore to protect.” Mark hissed at her before storming off into the mansion. Brandons’ gaze moved from the girl to Cassie in just a quick second. His look was saddening making her want to burst into tears thanks to two different reasons egging her on. Not wanting to show weakness she started walking towards the open doors. But before she entered she saw the remains of the party and some of the guests. When she entered the remaining guests turned and stared. The elders edged forward to see what she held tight against her chest. Darla was the closet and got to see the girl-child first. Her first reaction was that of disgust and then it turned to pity. “ Cassie let me have the child so you can go get cleaned up” she ordered. Her dainty hands were out stretched waiting for the child to be placed in them. “ Darla may I have your permission to give the girl back to
