I so didn't realize that this was this long... Oh well, no pack yet, sorry! For sure for sure the next chapter! Enjoy!


The room was completely silent as Vivian stared at the floor. Chris had told her everything. Her father had been a hunter with him, the same group. The two had been best friends since high school. Vivian's father had killed a friend of Deucalion's, a really good friend, and that was why he killed her parents. Chris and the others had been looking for Vivian for years, but finally they had given up, thinking that the worst had come of her as well. They went on with their lives and then… she had "popped up" as Chris had put it. "You've grown so much," he told her to break the silence.

Vivian looked to him. "My whole relationship with them… It's all a lie?" She asked and stood up walking to the other side of the room. "They've been like my family for thirteen years. Thirteen years, but it's all been based on lies?" Vivian turned and faced Chris. "Why did he kill my parents and then take care of me? Why?"

Chris only shook his head and shrugged. "I don't know, Viv… but they're all like that. Those werewolves are nothing but dangerous…" He said lowly. "You're not safe here. Especially not with knowing this. Viv… Come back with us…"

"I-I… I don't know…" Vivian said softly and looked down shaking her head. "I don't know anything other than this really. Maybe back when I was five, but I've lived with these… killers… all my life! I've never gone to school. I just… I don't know how to… live"

"We'll help you, we'll train you. We will be your family Vivi. Hell, we already are," Chris said and smiled at her lightly.

Vivian looked at him. "Be my family? I hardly know you. You came to my door and pointed a gun in my face. I'm supposed to trust you totally and completely?" She snapped.

"Within the twenty minutes of being here, have I lied to you once?" Chris asked her softly. "Have I said anything even remotely unbelievable? I have pictures for God's sake! And yet, you still are having trouble believing me? Where you've been living with people who have been lying to you your whole life? Really Vivian. You're as stubborn as your father, do you know that? He was the same way."

"Stop that. Stop trying to make me feel bad. I don't want to feel bad about this. I'm already confused enough. Just… Please… Go." Vivian was shaking her head as she tried to calm her thoughts. Did Deucalion, Kali, and Ennis really kill her parents? Were they really telling the truth about everything? She couldn't think straight anymore and she was beginning to get a headache.

"We're not leaving here without you, Vivian," Chris said and stood up and walked towards her. "Now that we've found you, I don't want to let you out of our sight again. Just come—"

"No!" Vivian snapped again. "I'm not going! I'm staying right here and waiting for Deucalion to get back!" She sat back on the couch with her head in her hands.

Chris sighed and pursed his lips before nodding. "Okay. We'll go…" He handed her a card, though. "Call me if you ever change your mind, even if you don't and just want to talk about your parents…"

Vivian looked up at him and took the card and put it in her pocket nodded. Chris sighed and looked to Allison, pointing to the door. They walked out, leaving Vivian alone, once again.

The pack got home late that night and Vivian was on the couch, clutching a cup of tea in her hand as she watched a movie on TV. She looked over at them and smiled lightly, that day's events still playing in her head. The twins came over and Aiden jumped on the couch next to her as Eithan went to the kitchen and grabbed something to eat. "What did you do while we were out, Viv?" Aiden asked and slung an arm around her shoulders.

Vivian shrugged and smiled. "Nothing really to be honest. Finished up a bit of homework, watched TV… you know, the usual," she said and then smiled at him warmly.

Aiden nodded and shrugged lightly. "True. School was boring today. You're lucky that you get to be home schooled. You don't have to deal with teachers that don't know anything… but… oh wait. You have Kali…" Aiden smirked and then looked over his shoulder at Kali who was giving him a death glare. He laughed. "I'm only kidding, Kali. Learn to take a joke."

Kali rolled her eyes at him and then went into her room. Deucalion walked in, sunglasses over his eyes, as always, and looked directly at Vivian. "Is something bothering you, love?" He asked her.

Vivian hadn't realized that she was staring at him. She abruptly stopped and looked down into her cup of tea and shook her head. "Nope," was all she said before looking back up at the TV to see Jennifer Lawrence in her interview with Jay Leno.

Deucalion looked at her suspiciously, but then looked toward his room and walked in. Something had changed in Deucalion in those years… Ever since he had lost his eye sight really. At first, Deucalion thought that losing his eye sight was a sign that he was vulnerable, but… soon he realized that it only made him stronger. And being strong and feared rather than being weak and liked was always better in Deucalion's book. Everyone had noticed that small change in him. Especially Vivian. She had watched Deucalion talk the twins into killing their pack. She had seen the massacres that they could commit because of one little insignificant detail… Maybe it wasn't so far-fetched that Deucalion, Kali, and Ennis had killed her…

No. Until she heard it from one of them for sure, she refused to believe that. Sure, that… hunter… he had "proof" but who's to say that he didn't do some digging and find out about her and her pack of a family somehow. Vivian hated to think that the three people who had saved her could really do so much evil… So she didn't believe it.

That night, while everyone was asleep, Vivian laid there, looking up at the blank, white ceiling thinking of various things. She hadn't told her pack about the hunters that had come to her door, she didn't want any bloodshed. The six of them were just settling down again and she knew that if anyone died then they would have to move out once again. Vivian couldn't shake the unsettling feeling that was setting in her stomach. She bit her lip and sat up walking out of the room. The only other one up was Deucalion… just who she wanted to see. "D-Deucalion?" She asked and walked over.

Deucalion looked over at her and smiled lightly. "Hello, love. Something wrong?" He asked her and patted the couch next to him.

This situation happened a lot, especially when Vivian was younger. She'd wake up in the middle of the night after having a horrible nightmare and then find Deucalion. He had gotten used to the night routine and for the next three years that's what would happen. Vivian would wander into the living room and crawl onto the couch with Deucalion. He'd sing her an old song that his parents taught him until she drifted to sleep.

Vivian shook her head and sat next to him with a sigh. "Well… I guess there is… Deucalion, you said, when I first ever met you, that you and Kali and Ennis would find who killed my parents and give them what they deserve… But, who killed them? I was never told. Did you ever find them? Did you ever—" She was cut off with a long sigh.

"Vivian… Why are you asking all these silly questions all of a sudden?" Deucalion asked her.

Vivian chewed on her lip and took a deep breath before saying, "There were some… hunters. They came to the house this morning while all of you were out. One of them… He recognized me and called me what my parents would call me when I was younger. He showed me pictures of him and my father and…" She trailed off and looked at her hands.

"And what Viv… You know that you can tell me anything, right?" Deucalion said, but his tone of voice was slightly different.

"He said that… You, Kali, and Ennis were responsible for my parents' deaths…" She whispered and refused to look at him. "It isn't true right?" When there wasn't a response, that's when she looked to him. "It's not true, right Deucalion?"

"Vivian… I… There were circumstances…" He said and pinched the bridge of his nose.

Vivian's eyes widened and she stood quickly. "What are you talking about circumstances?!" She snapped. "What the hell were the circumstances to kill a little girl's parents and then… mess up her whole head and-and lie to her for years on end and make her believe that you actually cared?! What are those circumstances?!"

"Viv… calm down. Stop yelling…" He said and stood.

"No! You stay away from me! You killed my parents… How dare you think you can even look at me…" She said and back up some.

"Vivian, stop this now," he ordered and took another step. "Don't make me do anything that I'm going to regret."

"I don't care…" Vivian said and shook her head. "I can't live like this anymore! Is that why you keep me cooped up in here?! I feel like Rapunzel or something! Like, this is absolutely ridiculous! You've lied to me. I trusted you and you completely used me!"

"I did no such thing. Did I take you against your will? No, you came willingly. Did you stay here against your will? No, you chose to stay. We took you in, we've taken care of you and protected you. This is how you thank us?" Deucalion shook his head.

"I'm leaving. I'm going to find those hunters that came to the house today and I'm going to stay with them. They were more truthful to me than you were in 13 years…" Vivian bit her lip and turned to walk into her room, but Deucalion caught her arm.

"You're making a big mistake, Vivian. If you leave now, I won't be able to protect you from anyone and that's including myself," Deucalion threatened her.

"Then I guess I'll just have to protect myself…" She muttered and pulled away before walking into her room and beginning to pack her things. She couldn't live with these people anymore… these… these monsters… That's what they were… all of them. Killers, monsters, just evil.

Vivian quickly got her stuff together and then went back into the living room where Deucalion was still standing. "You'll be back," he said to Vivian.

She shook her head in disagreement. "Never. I'm not ever coming back here and there's nothing you can say to make me do otherwise…"

Deucalion's eyes narrowed, but she brushed past him and out the door. She took out her phone and the card that Chris had given her earlier, dialing the number. The first time she called, he didn't answer. It was about two in the morning, but when she called again, he picked up on the second ring. "Hello?" Chris asked in a sleepy voice.

"M-Mr. Argent? It's me, Vivian…" She said through the phone. "I-I changed my mind. I want to stay with you. I can't do this. He confessed and… I just…" Tears welled up in Vivian's eyes. "Please, can you come and get me? I'm going to a restaurant that's right up the street from the house. I don't know if he's going to come up. I don't know…"

"Okay, okay…" Chris said and sat up yawning. "I'll be there in fifteen minutes. If they come up, any one of them, I want you to go into the bathroom and stay there. I'll have Allison come in and get you.

"Alright…" She said and quickly walked to the restaurant.

Vivian couldn't believe how one lie could change how she looked at her pack… the pack… the monsters. The ones that killed her parents. They weren't her family anymore. They were the enemy. She vowed to get revenge, no matter what it took.


Revenge? What kind of revenge and how is she going to carry that out against the Alpha Pack? I really hope that you like this story! Follow, review, tell me if there is anything that I should change. And sorry it took so long to update, but it's exam week and study, study, study... I'm going to fail... ugh. Thanks for reading!
