Your P.O.V.

—---------------

I decide to head to bed since I have class tomorrow.

"Gustav, you're gonna have to get up. I need to go to bed." He whines but lets go he looks up at me with big puppy eyes.

"Can I sleep in your bed?" I can't say no to those eyes ahhhhh.

"Of course." I head up to my room and Gustav follows not far behind me. I head to the bathroom to change and shower and return to my bed where Gustav is sitting and waiting for me on the edge of my bed. I go over to him and I lay on my bed I pat my lap and he lays his head on my stomach and I run my fingers through his hair. He falls asleep on me and I fall asleep not too long after.

I wake up the next morning and I look down to see Gustav cuddled into my waist but I also feel a breath on my neck. I sit up and two pairs of arms try to pull me back down.

"Where do you think you're going, darling?" Well no I know who's behind me.

"To class Georg." He buries his face into my neck.

"Oh come on, can't you stay home a little longer darling?" I sigh.

"I can't, I have to get to class." He sighs and pulls away which wakes up Gustav.

"I have to go Gustav." He whines and holds onto me tighter. Georg comes up to him and drags him off of me. Gustav looks sad as he gets dragged out. I chuckle to myself and stand up getting dressed. I head into the bathroom and brush my teeth. I head downstairs to see Bill on the couch. He looks up at me.

"When are your classes over?"

"I only have two today so give me like three hours and then we can go shopping together." He nods. I wave goodbye to him and I head out the door. I walk to my car and head to my first class. Once again it's a boring ass lecture but there's nothing I can do about it. Once the class is over I head to my next one. I sit through the class but I feel like I'm being watched, I turn to see some guy staring me down. I sigh and continue to listen to the lecture. College creeps are normal, they shouldn't be but they are. The lesson finally ends and I head out the door. Once I'm out the door someone grabs my wrist. I turn back to see the creepy guy from earlier.

"That scent, you've been living with them." I look at him like he's insane. He starts dragging me behind the building and I try to resist. He's a lot stronger than he looks almost inhumanly so. Oh fuck.

"What do you know about them?!" I raise my hand in defense.

"About who!?" He laughs and drags me closer to him and I can feel his breath on my face.

"Don't act stupid, their scent is all over you." I try to pull my wrist out of his grip but he holds on tighter. It's so painful that tears start to form in my eyes.

"Someone help, please!!" He laughs in my face.

"Not even that dumb wolf could hear you from here." But as he says that someone barrels into him knocking him and me to the ground. I look up from my spot on the ground to see familiar black dreads and....horns? I look him up and down horns, a tail, claws, and even bat-like wings. He grabs the guy who was grilling me by the hair and lifts him to his eye level.

"Who sent you!?" His voice almost sounds distorted. The guy starts to shake.

"It was Jason, Jason Malik." He starts foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog and he passes out. Bill drops him to the ground and turns to me. I flinch at the sound of him dropping the guy. He crouches down gently grabbing my wrist with his now-clawed hand.

"Are you alright my dear?" I nod my head, his eyes are pink, crazy. As I stare into his eyes they go brown. He picks me up bridal style and I squeak in shock. I look around and his body is back to normal, with no more horns and claws.

"Woah why are you picking me up?"

"I need to check you more thoroughly for injuries."

"What about my car?"

"We'll come back for it later." He starts running. I bury my face in his chest to keep the wind out of my eyes. He finally slows down. I hear the door to the mansion open and I look up. The first person to show up is Gustav. He looks pissed.

"You can scent her later Gustav, I need to check her for injuries." He carries me up to the bathroom and places me on the counter looking me over. He walks out for a second and calls Georg up. Georg comes in and his eyes bee-line for my hands. Bill nods and pushes Georg out. Bill picks up both my hands. I look down at my hands realizing that they have scrapes on them. Bill reaches into the cabinet behind me and grabs a first aid kit. He gets out the disinfectant and a cotton swab. I hiss when it comes in contact with my hands. He blows on my hand to try to lessen the pain.

"I'm sorry this happened dear. We just so happen to be infamous in our worlds, others that are like us don't want us around."

"Why?" He looks into my eyes.

"We all have our own reasons, we will tell you when we're ready." I nod and he lets go of my hands. He heads out of the bathroom and I hop down from the counter following not far behind but as soon as I make it down the stairs I'm pulled into a tight hug and I have a face buried into my neck. One person behind and one in front. I look down to see Gustav and I already know that Georg is behind me.

"Okay you two, let's go to the couch so we're out of everyone's way." Georg nods into my neck and lifts me up. He sits down on the couch placing me in his lap once again burying his face into my neck. Gustav comes over to us, sitting down in front of me and laying down on my lap. I run my fingers through his hair. Bill comes into the living room and chuckles.

"I'll wait until they're finished to take you shopping then."
