 Declan

I had just dropped Emma off at home and walked her to her front door. I turned around and saw Nicole standing in the middle of the yard. She was in her wolf form and had her eyes locked on me. I rolled my eyes and walked towards her. Her wolf was as beautiful on the outside as her human form, gray fur and pale human skin, but on the inside she was ugliest being. When I was just four feet in front of her, she huffed with a slight shake of her head. I jerked my head towards the woods and looked back to make sure Emma wasn't watching. I took a few steps and switched into my wolf form. I ran into the clearing where Emma had fallen the other day. Nicole followed behind me never removing her heavy glare from me.

I reached the fallen tree and flipped back into human form. There was a whoosh and then Nicole stood next to me, in human form.

"I can't believe you're actually going on dates with that thing," she scoffed.

"You're just mad because she's prettier than you," I spat.

In a split second Nicole had me shoved against a tree with her hand on my throat," no one....is prettier than me."

I grabbed her wrists and twisted them hard, a loud snap rang out. Then I had my hand on her throat with her pinned to the tree. She groaned in pain form her wrists being snapped.

"Try that again and you will regret it," I said in a low warning tone and released her.

She rubbed her wrists and scowled at me," didn't have to break my wrists."

"You're fine, they will heal in a minute," I snapped.

"Doesn't mean it doesn't hurt," she snapped back.

I ignored her.

"So what's the plan anyways? You just going take her on a few dates, get information from her, and then what?" Nicole asked.

"Doesn't matter what the plan is, as long as I have one, which you don't need to know," I said tauntingly.

She rolled her eyes and scoffed then ran into the clearing and shifted. I turned around and headed back towards Emma's house where my car was.

I stopped in the yard between my car and the house. I looked around to make sure no one was around. I ran and jumped onto the porch roof, landing silently, and walked quietly to Emma's window. I stood with my back against the house and peeked around the side of her window and saw that she was laying in bed reading. I watched her lay on her stomach with her head at the foot of the bed, and read. Then slowly the hand that was holding the book, fell onto the bed, and she gently fell to her side and was asleep. I silently opened her window and closed it behind me. I walked over to her and stroked her hair softly.

"I'll never let anyone hurt you.." I whispered. She stirred in her sleep a little bit and I quickly snuck out of her room.

The next morning I woke up and looked at my phone.

One miss call from: Nicole

I groaned and flopped my head back onto my pillow. I forced myself up and got dressed. When walked down the hallway and down the long staircase, I saw a girl sitting on my couch. I raised my nose to the air and used my wolf speed to quietly run behind her. It was as if I appeared behind her and grabbed her throat.

"Don't you know it's dangerous to try sneaking up on a hybrid," I taunted and shoved Nicole off the couch and onto the floor.

She glared up at me and jumped to her feet,"Just because you're one of the first werewolves and the only one to possess two vampire qualities somehow, doesn't mean you're invincible babe." She leaped into the air, shifted, and shoved me to the ground.

Her front paws were on my wrists, pinning me. I gave a devious smile and chuckled. I pushed my wrists sideways and broke free and slammed my hands hard into her chest. She flew backward and hit my fireplace and landed on her side. Some dust, from broken bricks, circled her. She stood up and shook her head, huffed, and licked her lips. She glared at me and growled. I smiled.

"Let's take this outside shall we?" I sarcastically asked, still smiling, and used disappeared out of the front door.

She jumped across the room, over the couch and darted after me.

My house is surrounded with 130 achers of land, and I knew it like the back of my hand. I had vampire immortality and speed, and since I am one of the first werewolves I am one of the strongest. I could usually get out of any sort of trouble without a problem.

I made my way to the waterfall on my land, I was 10 feet in front of the edge and was about to leap over. Just as my feet left the ground, Nicole tackled me to the ground and we skid to the edge. My head was partially over the edge, and Nicole was using all her strength to keep me pinned. She snarled and growled in my face, and leaned in really close.

I enjoy these little games we play love, but games get tiring. She spoke into my mind then stepped off and shifted back.

I dusted myself off and glared at her,"I am not your love. You're in love with me, but I am NOT in love with you."

Nicole smirked at me walked towards me slowly. She pressed against me, put her hand on my chest and whispered in my ear," you are in love with me..you just don't know it yet." She leaned back with a sly smile, her hand still on my chest and pushed me off the waterfall.

Half way down I spun and shifted. I landed in the water and quickly broke through the surface. I swam to shore and shook the water from my black fur. I glared up to where Nicole was standing, but she was gone. I growled irritated and ran through the woods to Emma's yard. I hid in the shadows and watched from across the yard into her kitchen window. She was washing dishes and listening to music. I tilted my head curiously and was about to step out of the shadows, but froze. I could hear her talking. There was a second voice, a girls. Then Emma spoke,"Delilah I am telling you these aren't ordinary wolves. I have read all those books and didn't see any sort of description that fit these ones."

"Are you sure? what about timber wolves? I mean we are in Minnesota and they aren't really uncommon." The other voice said. They discussed wolves for a while, and I decided to head home.
