Come stop your crying
It will be alright
Just take my hand
And hold it tight

I will protect you
From all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry

For one so small,
You seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
Keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart
Always

-You'll be in my Heart by Phil Collins

Anna, Derek, and I were sitting in the living room of the apartment staring at the diagram on my laptop.

"So, I mean are we technically pregnant? This says that the fertilized egg isn't even implanted in the uterus." Anna asked pointing towards the "day five" stage in the picture. I shrugged my shoulder.

"I mean I guess technically no, but I mean a fucking angel told us we were so I guess at the same time yes, because that kind of guarantees that it will implant. Right?" I asked the two people sitting next to me.

"I can't believe you guys are making me look at this." Derek mumbled as he stared at the picture of the uterus. I rolled my eyes at him, he was such a guy.

"What're you going to name yours?" I asked Anna, ignoring Derek. Anna gave me a blank look.

"Cora, I don't even know what it is."

"So?"

"So how am I going to know what I'm going to name it without knowing what it is?" Derek laughed at the offended look on my face.

"Cora's had her future children's names picked out since she was 10." I stuck my tongue out at Derek's mocking tone. "Just so you know, if we have a boy, we're not naming it Bruce after Batman." I scowled at Derek and Anna let out a laugh at the two of us.

"I'll have you know, my name choices have changed over the years."

"Not that this conversation isn't entertaining, but what are you going to do about the full moon tomorrow?" Anna asked, breaking my concentration of glaring at Derek.

"Good question. Isaac and I are both going to be locked up." I mused, as I began to try to think of a place.

"What about the old train depot?" Anna suggested. Derek nodded and I gave a thumbs up.

"That would work, it's secluded and already run down, so if you guys get loose and destroy stuff it won't be a big deal."

"I can go early and set up a barrier spell, and then just finish it up once you're all there." Anna added.

"What if you just did a barrier spell on two separate rooms instead of the whole place?"

"You guys would be fine together, we could just do one room." Derek interjected. "You're pack, you won't be trying to kill each other, you'll just be trying to get out." I went to respond, but was cut off by a pounding on the door. I could smell Isaac standing on the other side, and the panic rolling off him had me up and rushing towards the door before anyone could blink.

"Derek! Cora!" Isaac called as he pounded against the door again. I yanked the door open and ushered the boy inside. He was soaked from the rain and had a panicked look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Derek asked standing in the door way of the kitchen and living room, arms crossed over his chest.

"My dad. I think he's dead." Isaac said my eyes widened.
