Scott and Melissa had carried Agent McCall up to Scott's room, and I could still smell and taste the blood from down here. He was hurt pretty bad, and I didn't know if he was going to survive this, but Melissa is a trained nurse, so she can handle him. The creatures stalked the house, going around to see if they could find away to get inside. They were seriously creepy, like next level creepy. If it wasn't for the mountain ash, they could pop inside, using the shadows to do so and probably murder us in our sleep.

"She's a kitsune, you idiot," I had heard Derek state from the living room, making me go into it to see the back of him. As I entered the room, Kira had turned around to face Derek, no clue what he was on about. "Use your eyes," Derek had spoke to the twins, walking closer to them. "You can see it all around her. The younger ones give off an aura. She just hasn't learned how to conceal it yet. She probably doesn't know what kind she is either,"

Though Derek and his wolves could see it, I could not, I don't have the ability with my eyes, but maybe there's a spell. If I could use a spell that I know to show aura's, I could see her form. But we would have to do that another day, when were're not being hunted by creatures.

"I imagine Scott had given you the information?" I had asked Kira, he eyes meeting mine, as she just nods sheepishly.

"Just the basics," she had replied back, but before we could carry on chatting Scott had came in, looking to Kira and she wanted a word with him so he took her into the hallway to chat.

"I wasn't going to hurt her," Aiden had said to Derek and I, but he was aiming it at Derek.

"Not yet," Derek had replied after a moment. As I pressed myself to the wall, leaning facing the twins.

"Why do you think we're here, Derek? For a study group? We're here to protect Scott," Aiden had said, wanting so badly for him and his brother to join Scott's pack.

"We're trying to fight for him," Ethan had said, backing his brother up.

"And if it were up to me, you'll both be dead," they had both shot their heads to me, as it was kind of surprise to them, and I see Derek take his gaze to me. "Scott might be all righteous and forgiving. But me on the other-hand. I'll get my hands bloody if need be," I gave them both a death glare, to warn them to watch their backs. Before turning my back and walking back into the hallway, as if I be near them some more, I'll probably rip out their hearts.

I went up the stairs and found my way to Scott's room. As I stood at the entrance I see Melissa, tending to her ex-husbands wound, holding a towel to his shoulder, to keep the blood from leaking out. I walk one step and a floorboard had creaked, making Melissa shoot her head back. She was on high alert, but her face softened as she noticed it was me.

"How's he doing?" I had asked softly, coming further into the room.

"Well, his arms rotated, the tendon is torn. He's on his way to a collapsed lung. And the rate of his bleeding, he won't last long," Melissa sounded stress and scared for him, as she didn't want to see him die, and if he died Scott would never forgive himself. I made a life changing decision right now. I could either watch Scott's father bleed out to death on his bed, or I could use my blood to heal him.

"Melissa," I made my way over to her, and crouched beside her. Her eyes looking into mine. "I want you to remain calm and do everything I say" I spoke, using compulsion as I felt my iris rise and shirk. She just nods her head at me, as I stopped crouching. "I need you to stand and stop pressing on his wound," I said to her, her eyes cocked to mine, like I was mental but she obeyed because of the compulsion. She stood and stopped from pressing on his wound, but she remained calm all the way.
