I stare up at the ceiling making sure to keep still as to not wake up Titus. He should be up soon anyway, it's rare that he sleeps past five, five thirty at the latest. It's usually the time he wakes up to work out before work. I slept for a good two to three hours after he fucked the shit out of me but since then I've been up. I thought the sex would be a good distraction and it was for a little bit. Titus is really good at that, even better than I actually am but I think I'm a little restless. Alec and I are both on edge about our new situation. Alec moreso is out for blood whereas I'm feeling a little lost. For the first time in my life I feel like I have no family. I know deep down that isn't the case, but I can't help feeling like I got no support. The worse part being that my mother let him kick me out the way he did. Granted I know there's not much she could've done, and I wouldn't want her to fuck up her mateship just because my father is a homophobic ass wipe. I hold my breath as Titus moves in his sleep pulling me closer to him as if it's even possible to be closer.

He has to be a stage five clinger. Once he settles again, I look back at the ceiling. I feel for my sisters, that they had to see all of that and it's fucked up that I can't go and see them and make sure they're okay, to let them know I'm okay.

We can take them all! Alec growls pacing again.

That's not something I want to do. At one point they were under our protection. Alec grunts in response clearly struggling with his blood lust. There's nothing worse than an Alpha that was meant to protect you coming back for revenge. All the trust people once had in me would be gone in an instance. Titus begins to move again, and I glance over to the clock to see it's exactly five in the morning. He groans opening his eyes looking directly to me.

"Morning pet" he says huskily. "How long have you been up?"

"Since about one or so."

He sits up in the bed wiping his eyes, "Why?"

I shrug, "couldn't sleep, I thought that was obvious."

He raises an eyebrow at me before getting out the bed going into his bathroom, or I guess I should say ours since I live here now. Instead of falling into another bout of pity I decide to get out the bed as well. I walk into the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face.

"Would you like for me to show you around the house? There's a lot you haven't seen yet" he asks eyeing me from his sink.

I shake my head, "no, I'm going to go for a run."

"Would you like for me to join you?"

"No, I'd rather be alone."

He grunts before walking out the bathroom. Alec whimpers in my head and I can't help but to roll my eyes. I finish in the bathroom and instead of worrying about changing into clothes I walk out the room not seeing a sign of Titus anywhere. He must've started working out already. I go into the backyard quickly shifting into my wolf. I just need to clear my head.

I quietly shut the door behind myself only to see the room suddenly become illuminated. I slowly turn to face Titus. "If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were creeping around" he says sternly.

"I didn't think you'd be up."

"Do you want to talk about how you've been creeping in and out the house in the middle of the night?"

"No." I make my way to the bathroom knowing this conversation is far from fucking over.

"It was a rhetorical fucking question" he says coming in behind me causing me to sigh. "Now pet!"
