Important Info: Ren is housing a wolf demon within her and doesn't quite know it. She only comes into contact with the demon through its voice in her head and the flashbacks.

Whispered voices woke Ren out of her slumber, even though it was more just an empty darkness than actual sleep. It was Laito whom she heard first, he was quiet but with her sensitive hearing it was all too loud.
He was about to confess his love for an unseen woman but he stopped short when he noticed Ren get out of bed. She was silent as a mouse as she turned to face Laito and put a finger to her lips. She pointed to Yui then smiled, her eyes bright and pupils slanted.
"Oh?" Laito raised an eyebrow and watched from his seat as Ren moved about the room as if it were her first time seeing such a place. She sauntered about and took a moment to gaze at the almost ripe moon through the window.
"Little Pup, won't you come keep my lap warm?" Laito interrupted her sight seeing as he beckoned to her. Ren gave no response, not even as she walked over to him and was knee to knee with the vampire.
She cocked her head to the side and peered at him in annoyance. Laito confirmed his own beliefs,
"So you're the one Reiji was mumbling about all night. It does appear you are not the Little Pup I so adore… however that body is not different" He grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto his lap so she was forced to sit back slightly to look at him. He grazed her thigh with his nails and tugged at her oversized night shirt. He waited for a snarky remark or some indication of the other Ren, but the wolf girl only sat there with her tail swishing and ears twitching. Her eyes never left his as he reached behind her to stroke her tail trying to gauge a reaction. Ren leaned on him and rubbed her cheek against his chest, quite pleased at his actions.
"Just like a dog." He commented and felt Ren growl sending shivers along his spine. Laito suddenly grabbed a fistful of her hair and held her head up high to put her at a disadvantage. She was at arm's length, unable to move freely without pain shooting along her scalp. She bared her fangs and tried to shake out of his grasp. He laughed and tightened his grip in response.
"E-ne-my" She struggled to form words as it was long after she had last spoken. Raising a hand she swiped at him and caught her nails on his cheek, drawing blood to the surface.
Laito swore under his breath and bent over Ren to sink his fangs in her neck. Blood trickled down over her collar and soaked into her night shirt. He swallowed mouthful after mouthful of blood, wanting to make her whimper, scream, and cry.
But Ren only sat there rigid and still, not a sound emitting from her. This is nothing compared to what I've lived through. I will not be defeated by a mere boy.
Ren jerked her head to the side causing Laito's fangs to detach from her neck and blood splatter onto his face. She jumped off from his lap and huffed in anger while pressing fingers to her neck to stop the bleeding.
"Oh, not good enough for Laito? How about Yours Truly?" Ren spun to face Ayato who was already reaching for her, he who was the second whispered voice she had previously heard. She growled and her shadow began to grow into the shape of a wolf. Her eyes glowed bright blue and the shadow itself appeared to be crawling up Ren's leg, the skin developing white fur as aftermath. She darted forward and swiped at him to make a small cut on his face and licked at the droplets of blood on her fingers. Her face contorted as a heinous grin spread like wildfire.
"You share my master's blood… how interesting." Her shadow receded back to her human like form and she staggered back to only then fall to the floor. She felt the stir of her counterpart begin to awaken within her, little Ren's innocence was taking a toll on her power. The two brothers stared down at her in disbelief, neither daring reaching a hand to tend to her.
"My time here has come to a halt… Until next time-" She slumped forward before she finished her whole sentence. Soft snoring sounds emitted from her along with mummers that sounded like the word 'Meat'.
"It seems-" Ayato began
"That Mother has meddled again." Laito finished his brother's sentence and got down on his knees to get closer to the sleeping wolf girl. He picked up a piece of her hair and let it drift back down to rest on the girl's forehead. Ren curled up with her knees to her chest and drifted off to her dreamless void.
