THERE'S A NEW WERE IN TOWN

There was something about the way she smelled that enthralled him. How could it possibly be?

It had been centuries since the last time he smelled something so… perfect. He couldn't help but stare at the beauty in front of him. He had called Alcide and asked if he could come over to help him take care of 'business' as most non-humans chose to call their dirty business. Never had he imagined he'd bring a guest.

The worst part about it was that the girl Alcide was with was barely legal but she looked like she could handle her own. Alcide glanced over at the Viking vampire sitting on his 'throne' surrounded by his many bitches and he felt his anger rise. He knew he shouldn't have brought his younger sister with him. Monica had been raised by their mom away from the pack in order to shelter her from the nightmare she had been born into. Every full moon, her mom had locked her in a cage and told her that if she shifted, she'd be put down, so every time she had the urge, especially during a full moon, Monica suppressed herself the best she could.

Her mom, surprisingly, had been killed by a stray dog one night when she was coming home from work. How ironic, man's best friend ends up a killer.

The minute Alcide had heard about his mother's death he had shown up at the door and taken Monica with him. Monica was fifteen years old at the time and that was three years ago. Since then he had thought her everything he knew about being a 'Were'. She had done him proud. She was a quick and eager learner and it seemed as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders the minute Alcide had taken her hand in his and led her out of the house and taken her… home. Since she moved in with him, she wouldn't leave her side in fear of him disappearing.

Eric Northman, the Vampire Viking looked her over as she made her way over to where he was seated, Alcide was walking ahead of her and kept a trained ear on her footsteps to make sure she was following as close as she could without stepping on his heels. There was something different about the atmosphere at 'Fangtasia'. Something seemed off and Alcide met the Viking's eyes and immediately noticed that he wasn't how he was supposed to be.

Eric's eyes were fixed on the mini-female version of Alcide and he couldn't tear his eyes away. Alcide couldn't help but smirk as he heard his sister's low growl grow at the back of her throat as she noticed the vampire's attention was drawn to her.

"You didn't tell me you had a new girlfriend," Eric grinned and bared his fangs for a brief moment as he looked Monica over again… and again.

"She's my sister," Alcide answered gruffly and stepped into the line of sight blocking his sister from the blonde vampire's lusty stare. He did not like the way he was looking at his sister.

"How is that even possible? You two share blood?" Eric grinned even more and looked over at Alcide. "Who knew your bloodline could produce such… perfection," Alcide snarled at the blonde vampire.

"What's the job?" he decided to ignore the vampire's hopeless attempts at irritating the hairs off his head and went straight for the business part of the encounter.

"I hear rumors about a gang of 'Weres' causing havoc in the south part of town. You know anything about it?" Eric's voice and body language immediately changed and his face grew serious and strained.

"I heard a new pack is in town, but nothing more than that. Figured them for a couple of drifters," Alcide tensed.

"Well, I want them gone. They're stirring up something they shouldn't and I want them gone before the 'King' finds out," Alcide couldn't help but smirk at the venom escaping the vampire's lips as he spoke of the 'King'.

"Consider it done," and with that, he walked out, grabbing his sister by the back of her neck and pushed her out in front of him, trying to both get her and himself out of the vampire infested whorehouse before he caught some kind of weird vampire disease.

Monica glanced back at the door to 'Fangtasia' as they left. This was going to be interesting.
