Hope ran as fast as she could away from Josie as soon as they returned to the mansion. Lizzie was quick to ask what was going on but Hope only ignores her as she slammed the door of her assigned room closed.
Lizzie was quick to turn to her sister, her eyes glowing a light shade of yellow. "Josie, what did you do now?" From the looks of the girl, Josie must have done something again.
"Well," Josie smiles, leaning against the counter. "Me and my mate had some fun time alone together." She smiles. "That's what you wanted, right?" The Alpha furrowed her eyebrows at her sister, that grin on her face still evident.
"She wouldn't have acted like that if you were just out for a "walk," so if it were just like that, what exactly did you do?" The blonde asked, walking towards the noirette.
"I already told you, we went on a hunt." Josie smiles.
"You're both butt naked." She glanced down, cringing. "You're still butt naked!" She screams, gagging. "Go put something on, I still need to talk to you."
The hybrid rolls her eyes as she does what she was asked to. It's just one of those moments after all.

"Okay, hit me." Josie starts, grabbing an apple from the fridge. "What do you wanna know?" She asked as she takes a bite from the fruit after washing it.
"The exact question, what exactly did you and Hope do in the woods?" She asked, almost directly as she looks at her sister.
"I already told you, we went on a hunt." She smiles.
"I see you, Josie. I know there's something more to that." The healer claims, looking at the Alpha in disbelief of how she could lie face to face.
"We went on a hunt. I compelled a human and made her kill it." She shares, smiling. "It was surprisingly satisfying seeing her doing what I tell her to, and how she looked at me with pure hatred as her eyes turned blue." She chuckles. "Pretty funny if you ask me-" Lizzie pushed her.
Josie's eyes quickly turned red, her veins pulsing under her eyes. "How dare you-"
"No. How dare you?!" Lizzie shouts. "That was exactly what father made you do. How he took your innocence-"
"Oh, believe me, sister, it already was long gone before that even happened-"
"That doesn't change the fact that you made another being do it. She's your mate. She may mean nothing to you, but you had no right to take her innocence from her. One day in this household and you manage to damage the luna." Lizzie stated, looking at her sister with nothing but disappointment.
"Oh don't act like the good person here, Lizzie. You're practically begging me to fuck her just so you could save this worthless clan." She starts. Lizzie grew quiet at that. "You didn't feel what I felt in our father's hands, in this clan's hands. Whether I help this clan or not, it's up to me, not you. So I advice you to keep being your nice little self or you're throwing this clan's chance at survival out of the window." Josie threatened, pushing strands of hair behind Lizzie's ear.
"You wouldn't." Lizzie starts, stopping Josie on her tracks.
"And how are you so sure of that if I may ask?"
"You wouldn't want to lose the only being that loved you and had stick with you through thick and thin. You may not be saying it, or have expressed it, but you can't survive without me, Josie." Lizzie smiles, putting her hand on the Alpha's shoulder. "When you said I should keep being my nice little self, I think it should be the other way around. You wouldn't want to lose the only person who cares about you now, would you?" She smiles. When she was satisfied at making the Alpha shake even for just a few seconds, she takes her leave.
