***********************************************************

I looked at the figure ahead of me, I swallowed as I felt Kathy come back from her silence.

'Hunter.' She whispered. I nodded, getting a better look at the Hunter for myself. I was surprised to see a woman appear, holding her hand gun up and ready to fire. 'We need to kill her' she whispered to me again as if the girl could hear her talking.

'No, not yet. I need to find out if she has information on Dylan.'

'Ugh! Whatever, just hurry. I'm getting irradiated.' She snapped. I mentally rolled my eyes at her. I looked back at the girl in front of me. I slowly walked towards her, she continued to hold the gun up at me.

"Don't come any closer!" She snapped at me and I stopped moving. "I swear, if you take one more fucking step I'l kill you!" She shouted, it wasn't hard to see that this girl was scared. She looked like she was 16 or 17 years old. She had long brown hair that was in a bun and hazel eyes. She was very pretty, it would be ashamed if anything happened to her... What? I don't think like that! Only moments ago I wanted to keep her safe now I'm thinking about killing her? Oh my, I'm bipolar now.

"I'm not going to hurt you." I said, quietly. Raising my hands up to show that I wasn't going to do anything. I was well aware that I was naked, but unless she was checking out my goods, I had nothing to worry about. "I just want to ask you something." I took a step forward.

"Stay the fuck back! I swear!" She shouted. I stopped moving, I watched a tear roll down her face, she quickly tried to wipe her tear away. I made my move, I ran to her. Snatching the gun away from her, throwing it into the bushes and tackled her to the floor. "Get off of me!" She kicked and screamed. I held her down.

"Please I just need your help!"

"Get the fuck off of me!

"I'm not trying to hurt you! Just shut the fuck up and listen!"

"What do you want?" She snapped at me. I sighed, letting her go and moving back towards the river. I looked back at her and saw that she was slowly getting back up.

"I wanted to ask you if you'd seen someone."

"And why would I tell you anything, Rogue?"

I looked back at her, "My name is Cassandra, not Rogue."

"I can really care less," Man she was a bitch. I shrugged.

"I want to know if you've seen anyone out here." I took a deep breath. "A man maybe around 5'10 or 5'11, blondish hair--"

"Why are you asking?" she interrupted.

I looked her straight in the eye as I answered her, "He's my mate."

"And you're trying to find him." she said and I nodded. She suddenly began to laugh, I frowned. "All my life I had grown up thinking that Werewolves were all just blood crazy animals who only cared about their other half." That was kind of true. Not the blood crazy part though.... that was just the Rogues.

'Yeah, that's going to be you too...' Kathy whispered to me. I shook my head at her.

"That's not all true. We Weres love our mates, no matter what. We fight to the death for what's ours. We have families and children... Brothers and sisters... Cousins, Aunts and Uncles... Friends and neighbors... We're just like you, more than you'll ever truly know. The only difference is that we can turn into a huge ass dog and have more strength and speed than humans do," I shrugged at it. "But Rogues, they are what you should fear. Rogues are blood thirsty savages who will kill anything that comes in it's way."
