Osiris POV

I had come along way. If I had discovered Phina sooner I don't think I would have had the restraint I do now. There was no way that pestering human would have still been breathing had I found him first.

Desmond was right by saying he was lucky he got a hold of him first. After the look in Phina's eyes I almost crossed that line right then. He shouldn't have been left the take another breath after what he did to Phina, and if I didn't have anyone else standing in harms way I wouldn't have been trying to stop Ivy.

"Where the fuck is he?" Ivy screamed slamming the front door. Lucky, the poor man, nearly had a heart attack as she stormed in. The plate in his hand falling from his nimble fingers.

"Miss Ivy, is every-"

Ivy pushed by him not sparing him a single glance. I was close on her heels.

"Where is he?" She shouted.

By the time I made it to the door Lucky was already picking up the pieces of the shattered plate. "Leave it Lucky. I'll take care of it."

"Where the hell is he!"

Both of us glanced up at the stairs before sharing a collective agreement to leave the shattered plate where it laid. Lucky nodded as he silently slipped away into the kitchen.

A series of growls reached me ears followed by a yell. "Don't let her hurt me."

"And why shouldn't I let her?" I heard Desmond taunt.

Desmond was a loss cannon. He'd ignore my orders if I wasn't present. It was his way of "bending the rules", sometimes I think I give him to much rope to play with.

"Because I'll fuck up both of your days." I growled entering the room. Desmond had Andy pressed up against the wall, his body wedged between Andy and Ivy.

I pulled Ivy back grabbing the back of her collar. Her eyes flashed their emerald green as they flared up at me. Her wolf was nearly feral as her teeth flashed in my face.

My own beast took over, he stripped me of my control as I towered over her and released a thunderous growl of my own. She needed to know where her place was, I hated having to do this but she left me with no other option. I couldn't allow one of my own to kill another being however much I might have craved it deep down.

Ivy whimpered as she kneeled to the ground, her once predatory nature dissipating. Her eyes darted away from mine as she bowed below me.

'Don't get up from this spot until I tell you to.' A slight nod from her and that was all I needed to see to turn to the true monster in the room.

"T-thank y-"

"Fuck off. I'm not doing you a favor." I seethed my voice unrecognizable to my own ears. My wolf held the reigns to my mind and body as he moved us closer to Andy.

Desmond moved aside as I approached, a smug smirk on his face as he release Andy. The human coward away. Good, you should be so scared.

"Ohhh, your about to get your ass handed to you." Desmond chimed leaning against a desk in the room.

"Do you ever shut up?" Ivy hissed.
