Alyona sat in the garden and closed her eyes as she listened to all the sounds around her. "Хочешь пойти в город, Котенок? Khochesh' poyti v gorod, Kotenok? (Do you want to go into town, Kitten?)"

She smiled as she felt Raven sit beside her. She shook her head the tilted it back up to the sun. "Nyet."

"Вы не думаете, что готовы. Vy ne dumayete, chto gotovy. (You don't think you are ready)." He watched her for a few minutes. "Ты еще не доверяешь себе среди людей. Вы боитесь, что сойдете с ума. Ty yeshche ne doveryayesh' sebe sredi lyudey. Vy boites', chto soydete s uma. (You don't trust yourself around all the humans just yet. You are scared you are going to go into a frenzy.)"

She refused to look at him or answer. "Hey what's going on here?" Corey asked as he came out and sat on the other side of Alyona. "Привет, Алойна, что происходит? Privet, Aloyna, chto proiskhodit? (Hi Aloyna, what's going on?)"

"Ничего такого. Nichego takogo. (Nothing.)" She said without looking at them.

"Trying to see if she wants to go into town but I don't think she feels ready," Raven explained then said it in Russian so she would know exactly what he was saying.

"That's understandable," Corey nodded. "Maybe we can find something around the house for us to do together."

"Мне нужно начать обедать. Mne nuzhno nachat' obedat'. (I need to go get started on lunch)," she mumbled as she stood and brushed the grass off.

"Дочь. Doch'. (Daughter)" Nikolai called out and she automatically turned to face him. "Пошли, Док хочет проверить тебя и убедиться, что у тебя все хорошо. Poshli, Dok khochet proverit' tebya i ubedit'sya, chto u tebya vse khorosho. (Come on, Doc wants to give you a check up and make sure you are doing well.)"

She started walking towards him when all of a sudden there were loud pops piercing the sky. "Shit," Raven cursed as he rushed to where she stood frozen. "Котёнок, посмотри на меня. Kotonok, posmotri na menya. (Kitten, look at me.)" He cupped her face and forced back a gasp as her hazel eyes turned maroon red and her teeth slid down. "Kitten."

"What the fuck is going on?" Gabe asked as the rest of the men came out.

"Who's hurt?" Sean asked looking around. "I smell blood."

"Kitten," Raven said ignoring everyone. "Котёнок, посмотри на меня. Я прямо здесь. Ты в порядке, я здесь. Kotonok, posmotri na menya. YA pryamo zdes'. Ty v poryadke, ya zdes'. (Kitten, look at me. I'm right here. You're okay, I'm right here.)"

"Who fucking tried shooting here?" Gabe asked looking around.

"Alexsei crew," Nikolai said sliding his gun back in his holster. "Hurt gardner, Doc look at him, be okay."

"Kitten," Raven said calmly. She gripped his wrists and whimpered. "Ты в порядке, я обещаю, ты в порядке. 143. Ty v poryadke, ya obeshchayu, ty v poryadke. 143. (You're okay, I promise, you're okay. 143.)"

"Get her out of here, Raven," Corey said coming to stand beside them.

"Закрой глаза. Zakroy glaza. (Close your eyes.)" Raven picked her up and she automatically wrapped her arms around his neck and legs around his waist. "Иди и пей. Idi i pey. (Go ahead and drink.)" He bit back a groan when he felt her teeth slice into his skin and his blood being pulled as he carried her into the house.

"She okay?" his mother asked rushing into the room.

"Frenzy," Raven explained as he ran his hands up and down her back. "Human gardener get hurt, trigger."

"I go get blood," she said starting to leave the room.

"We got her," Axel said shaking his head as he came into the room. "There's plenty of us."

"Da," She nodded, "I go check all okay," she left the room as the rest of the groups came into the living room.

"How is she?" Sean asked as he came over to them. She growled as she tightened her grip on Raven.

Raven chuckled as he held her, "Ты в порядке, Котенок. Я никуда не пойду. Просто выпей, я рядом. 143637. Ty v poryadke, Kotenok. YA nikuda ne poydu. Prosto vypey, ya ryadom. 143637. (You're okay, Kitten. I'm not going anywhere. Just drink, I'm right here. 143637.)"

"Just give them space right now," Axel chuckled. "Don't push it Raven, we are all right here."

"Da," Raven said as he gently ran his fingers up and down her back. He went back to repeating to her over and over then after a bit he murmured, "Хватит, Алёна, можешь пить из другого. Khvatit, Alona, mozhesh' pit' iz drugogo. (That's enough Alyona, you can drink from someone else.)" She growled as he carefully pulled her back a little. He repeated it while wiping some blood off her chin with a caring smile on his lips. She growled and he chuckled. "Такой милашка. Takoy milashka. (So cute)."

"Alyona," Corey said sitting next to Raven. She turned to look at him and he forced back gasping at her eyes. "Drink," he cut his neck and held his arms open. She immediately latched on and Brandon helped her straddle him better while chuckling at her little growls.

"Here," Natasha said as she handed Raven a tumbler. He nodded and started drinking. "Bringing more for all."

"Thanks," Axel said as he watched Brandon take Alyona from Corey after some time and got her to drink from him. "Everything okay?"

"Da," Natasha nodded. "Nikolai men take care it. All gone."
