It was early in the morning, and she hated the fact that she was coming home, after everything that happened yesterday 'well actually it happened just hours ago' Natsuki thought. After the whole 'friendly vampires' and all that fiasco, she went to meet with the rest of the pack and spent almost an hour trying to explain them why in the world they had to let vampires in their lands, let them feed from the animals of the zone and more importantly probably had to be close to them, seeing as they were staying at Natsuki's –the alpha- house, which was where they usually held a lot of their "meetings" – which actually meant they went to assault the Kuga's fridge- after that she went to Mai's house and was starving, but her redhead friend had ran out of mayo. So here she was, the almighty Kuga Natsuki sneaking back into her house at 5 am in the morning, after she had made a scene and left her house utterly offended.

She surrounded her house and was planning to enter from the back door, using the key her mother always left inside the dog house.

"Hey buddy" she smiled at the Siberian husky that was sleeping soundly "don't make a sound ok?" she grabbed the keys and patted the animal in the head before getting into her house.

"Hi" a voice came from behind her.

"Holy fucking shit" Natsuki said placing a hand on her chest as she almost suffered a heart attack.

"Sorry, I thought you would smell my essence"

"What? The whole fucking house stinks of vampire" Natsuki finally looked at the girl that was sitting at the table, it was the shortest of the group, and she was black haired with big golden eyes "Hey I thought you guys couldn't eat anything besides blood" she said when she realized the girl had a big sandwich which was half eaten in front of her.

"That's a lie. Movie lie, we eat everything, but we do need blood to stay healthy" the girl took a big bite of the sandwich almost like proving her point "do werewolf can transform only with full moon?"

"that's a movie lie about werewolf" Natsuki said and slowly took a seat in front of the girl, she was childish and her eyes were like windows to her soul, and it looked evil-free "we also are so not like those hairy ugly two legs werewolf the movies always shows" she added, it always pissed her off, that while movies showed vampires like beautiful creatures, they always were the hairy ugly ones "what about crucifix and stakes?"

"Lie too, what about silver bullets?"

"Lie, sunlight?"

"Lie, but it does bother us though, we also can see our reflection in the mirror, and appear in pictures. And we have soul, all those things about we being living dead is movie crap, but I don't remember the explanation, they were explaining it to me, but I was really hungry."

"Hey, I thought you made your dramatic exit and won't be coming back till Mai ran out of mayo" Saeko said as she entered the kitchen

"Well actually you see Mai didn't have mayo at all, so here I am, mayo is more important than dramatic exits and vampire invasion" Natsuki said, and smiled when Saeko rolled her eyes at her.

"I'm glad you're having a civilized conversation with Mikoto here, she's a nice girl, aren't you Mikoto?"

"Humph" the girl smiled widely before shoving the last piece of the sandwich inside her mouth.

"Whatever" Natsuki said as she looked away embarrassed that she was actually socializing with one of the vampires.

"For how long are we staying here?" Nao asked in an annoyed as she watched through the window the rest of the wolves pack and Natsuki playing in the field, they tackled each other and hit each other in a friendly demeanor. All of the vampires were in the Kuga's studio, Hiro was reading, while Shizuru and Reito were sitting at the two chairs that were placed in front of the wide desk, while Mikoto was with Nao looking outside, with a face that showed she wanted to join the game as well.

"I honestly don't know. I will be visiting the clans that share our same ideologies, so they will be prepared in case something happens, but I will go alone, maybe Reito will join me. But for now we need to keep a low profile." Hiro said.

"You know that's the thing, we have always kept a low profile and look how it went for us. Maybe this time we need to be the ones to strike first" Nao said.

"Rushing through things is not the smartest move" Shizuru said.

"We need to get back up, to be prepared and more importantly know what we are facing"

"Isn't it obvious? Are we not facing a group of blood thirsty 'I want to rule the world' vampire group?" Nao pointed out

"Maybe, but I have the feeling that's not it" Reito said, Nao rolled her eyes when Shizuru and Hiro nodded in agreement.

"Fine, but whatever it is that you're doing, do it fast, I hate being surrounded by dogs, and besides the smell like wet dog." She said throwing a glance to the group playing outside.

"I like them. I talked to Natsuki earlier and she's good, she's my new friend humph!" Mikoto said excitedly doing a fist air pump.

"See they can't be that bad if Mikoto likes them, we all know she's good at reading people's soul" Reito said smiling warmly at his little sister.

After a couple of months filled with arguments between members of the pack and the red-haired vampire (she was the only one who was up for quarrels all the time) the wolves and the vampires got used to each other companies, they even started going to the town's high school in order to keep appearances. But even thought all that, Natsuki couldn't get over the fact how easily Shizuru had neutralized when they first met.

"Hey D" a girl with short brown hair greeted Natsuki how was exercising

"Hey Chie" Natsuki greeted still running in treadmill

"I need to talk to you, let's go for a run outside. I think you might like to hear this in private, I already have Takeda, Tate and your cousin Nina waiting outside in all fours" Natsuki's eyebrows shot up, not only her closest group among the pack was ready for action (in all fours was a expression they used among themselves to refer when they transformed in wolves) but the seriousness in Chie's tone sent the blue haired girl in full alpha mode.

"Let's go" Natsuki said, as soon as they got out of the house the 3 wolves that were waiting outside the house ran into the woods, Natsuki threw Chie a glance before smiling and start running too, as soon as her heart beat accelerate with the effort of the running she jumped as high as her legs allowed and let the wolf inside her take over.

'Taro is the one doing the guards this week, he told me that he have been smelling vampires near the border of our territories, but only yesterday they dared to step into our territory and actually hunted, they attacked two hikers' Chie's voice said. It was one of the wolves thing, they were able to hear each other thoughts, that was the secret behind their amazing sync.

'You think they are going to actually do it again? Or are we going to haunt them?' Takeda voice ran in her head too, even thought he was nowhere in sight.

'We'll wait for them a little bit behind the border line and surround them' she said/thought 'Nina! Go look for the rest of the pack' she commanded, and nodded when a blue and white fur passed running next to her heading the opposite direction 'today we'll go vampire hunting'

I want to apologize for the delay, but school has been epic, and since I'm in my senior year of high school well. I also hope you enjoyed this, I have been reading the house of night series and I'm going to mix a bit of the 3 stories, cause I think that the vampire origins theory in the HoN series is actually kinda believable (cept for the whole mark thing). So let me know what you think and I'll try to update soon!

I hope you all had merry xmas and I wish you a happy new year
