Animal Instincts

Part 8

Author's note.

So today plan on releasing most of the book if not all. Please leave comments and vote on it! I plan to make more than one for this so let me know what you think. I also want to work on a cast list for this and I am looking for ideas so if you leave a name or picture and who you think they would be good fit for there is chance that they might be cast as that person. Enjoy my Lovely's. (Side note working on what to call you guys let me know what you think.)

The doorbell rang and Dane went to open it.

"Hi Xander, how are you?" Dane asked while looking Xander in the eyes. Xander's stare was full of anger.

"I'm fine where is she?" Xander asked sternly.

"What's wrong?" Dane asked, a little shocked.

"You can stop lying. I know what happened that night and if you would have stopped them they would not be dead my mom told me. Now where is she? I'm getting her out of here?" Xander demanded his voice full of rage.

"Xander please come in and calm down there was no way that we knew what would happen. How could we have thought that they were our friends and then they killed them. I regret letting them go. All of them ." Dane explained after shutting the door.

"You really didn't know?" Xander asked calmly.

"If I would have , do you think I would have let them go?" Dane responded.

"No , but I had no way of being sure I came , but where is she?" Xander responded this time much calmer.

"Upstairs sleeping she was really upset. She stayed as a cat for hours to avoid talking , and no I didn't tell her what happened. I think it would hurt her too much if I did." Dane explained with pleading eyes.

"Also to that question you asked me before yes, but I hope you know what is for if you do." Dane said with a hint of a smile.

"Yeah, I do." Xander said as he looked at a picture of him and Li from prom on display.

Xander patted his pocket and smiled.

Xander went upstairs and sat by her on the bed. He began wiping away her tears as she started to stir Liela's eyes began to flutter open.

"When did you get here?" Liela asked sleepily.

"About 20 minutes ago. Not now...but later you should really talk to your dad. Why

doesn't matter right now." He stopped. "Do you want to go home?" Xander asked in a soft tone. She nodded.

"But I don't want to walk." She said, and Xander smiled. "I'll take care of that." He said, scooping her in his arms .

She smiled as he carried her back down, and closed her eyes pretending to be asleep when they passed her parents who she still didn't want to talk to.
