As I was getting dressed I heard footsteps behind me. They were lighter than Logan's and I knew very well how he stepped and what it sounded like. And this wasn't him.

"Surprise!" I heard the female voice yell but I didn't connect who it was until I had Carmon pinned down on the floor and giving me a grin.

"You still got the moves." She laughed, "now get off me!"

"Carmon I freaking missed you so much how have you been?!" I yelled as I pulled her into my arms.

"I've been good, hanging in there of course. I haven't gotten to see my best friend in months and now I find her a at her "husbands" house. Go figure it would turn out to be the alpha!"

"Yeah. Me either." I chuckled. The grin slowly making its way off my face.

"Allison what's wrong?"

"What? Nothing is. Why would you ask?" I said putting a fake smile back on my face.

"You're acting different. Is he hurting you?" She asked coming closer looking at my body.

"Hell no! It's just I was captured recently and something about them. They weren't werewolves but weren't humans. They were something different. Their eyes didn't glow the same as a werewolf's. They were a different creature completely and a hell of a pain in the ass. I keep thinking about them. I need answers. I never brought it up to Logan, I don't think he'll believe me." I thought I was going to lose my mind. She looked at me with such confusion and concern.

"Allison. I don't know what to think or say. I didn't see what you saw. But don't you think you could have just been seeing things and nothing was wrong at all?" Carmon suggested.

"No. I know what I saw and that thing was beastly. More animal than human but it was always changing to me. At first they look like huge werewolves but in the dark.... Something much worse. Carmon I've been pretending to be asleep so Logan doesn't think anything is wrong. I'm scarred."

"I believe you." Was all she had to say before hugging me and leaving.

Logan still downstairs, I went and took a shower thinking that would ease my mind.

I turned the shower on and felt the water before I took of the towel around my body and let it drop to the floor and stepping into the shower.

The almost hot water running down my face and body. I closed my eyes and in that instant I saw them.

Red eyes, spikes growing from their bodies. Claws longer than six inches. Skin turning a black so black it's like you were looking into a black cold abyss and for some odd reason my eyes didn't want to open. Didn't want to escape the fear I was seeing. I was curious. Deathly curious. And in that moment I became in fear of my life. And in fear of what I'm capable of doing.

When I got out of the shower I quickly got dressed and walked out into the room to see Logan was sitting on the bed playing on his phone.

"Hey babe." He said never looking up from it.

"Hi." I said slowly moving closer him.

"All I get is a hi?" He asked and I could just feel something different about him. The air felt thicker and the area felt darker.

"I have a question. When did we get I guess married again? I want to make sure I have it right." He didn't look up at me once.

"June 7th" he said. But I knew he was lying. This wasn't Logan.

I nodded and went over to Logan's dresser knowing he keeps a hand gun safe with his boxers.

When I looked in the dresser I didn't see it, the gun wasn't there.

"Looking for this?" Logan was now standing up and with his hand up showing the gun and I looked into his eyes and saw the pitch black eyes of a creature I didn't understand.

"What are you? Where's Logan?" I asked backing away from whatever this thing was that had my husbands face.

"Logan is on pause right now. This is his body just not... Him." The creature said.

"You're lying. I can tell. That's a skill I've always had.... So I'm going to ask you this one more time.... Where. Is. Logan?"

"Alright. You're right. He is with my friends right now. Let's just say my friends get a little bit crazy. Who knows he could already be dead."

"Stop lying. You need him alive if you want something from me. He's no good to me dead." I said.

The creature who had Logan's face chuckled and grinned.

"Right again. I do want something from you. Let's put a trade on it. Logan your precious husband for your first born."

"What? Why would you need my first born?" I asked.

"That child has been seen in the future. And I need that child. That child is a demon." As he said that he pointed to my stomach.

"I'm not pregnant..." I said not believing the statement that came out of my mouth.

"Oh but you are sweetie. So we got a deal? The demon child for your husband back unharmed."

I knew the answer I was going to give him before the word slipped out my mouth.

"Deal."
