Kira's POV

I heard a shout.

Or was I imagining it?  It was quite again, so I decided to let myself fall back asleep.

"Everyone up! NOW!" That time my head jerked off my pillow. It was Sir Oliver going around waking everyone up. I looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was only one in the morning.

Things just keep getting weirder around here.

I forced myself out of bed, but my eyelids were trying to close again. After vigorously rubbing them I looked around and saw that everyone looked more than worried; they looked downright horrified.

"What's going on?" I whisper asked KC after Sir Oliver left the room. He'd told us to get changed into clothes that allowed free movement.

"I'm not sure, but last time Sir Oliver got everyone out of bed in the middle of the night, everyone got punished for no reason." She whispered back, her hands shaking slightly. I felt a rush of adrenaline go through me, brought on by fear. Oliver's ability to be unpredictable terrified me.

After getting dressed and splashing my face with water to wake myself up, Oliver had returned and ordered us to go down to the main living room by the front door. We all followed him in silence. When we got down there, I was surprised to see that Oliver looked happy, which couldn't mean anything good. But when I saw that Noah looked to be in a good mood as well I was less worried.

"We are being attacked by wolves tonight. They'll be here in roughly twenty minutes. Listen closely because I'll only say this once. They'll probably try to bribe you with words to join them. If you do, I will kill you." Oliver stated bluntly.

I couldn't figure out why discovering that they were about to be attacked made the both of them so happy. Now that I thought of it, this must've been why Oliver had sent us to bed so early.

"Now that that's cleared up, I'm going to arm all of you with cross bows and arrows. Noah, myself, Nicholas, Lewis, Macilia, and Lucius will fight them off outside the mansion, but if one or two slip in, shoot them. In there wolf forms they're fast enough to dodge them, but if you're all shooting at once there's no way they can get away. The tips of the arrows are laced with vampire venom. The venom of a vampire is excruciating to a werewolf and all, but it also causes their wolf form to just malfunction and they'll turn back to their human forms. They aren't strong at all in human form, so it'll be easy to kill them." Oliver patiently explained all of this to everyone, but I'd already learned these things from Sam.

"Are there any questions?" He asked this question, but something about his face said that he wouldn't like it if anyone asked anything. One of the girl slaves timidly raised her hand.

Oliver sighed heavily. "Yesss?" He asked in an irritated tone.

"uh..... never mind." She all but whispered.

"No, go on."

"How many wolves are coming?" She asked with a look of worry on her face. At this Oliver grinned.

"Not sure, but we think it's around forty." He had a smirk on his face that worried me. "But no need to worry, they won't be much of a problem. Wolves have a great disadvantage over vampires; we are SO much harder to kill. All we have to do is bite them and they're easy prey." Oliver said with loads of cockiness.

After that, no more questions were asked. Our job was simple and very to the point.

"One last thing, nobody go running off on your own. You'd be killed in a heartbeat. You're much better off as a group." Noah said, finally giving some input.
