Rylee was surprised when they approached the edge of the woods by their house. He phased back throwing his shorts on and quickly caught up with his brother as he headed into the garage. Ally came walking out of the house and followed them.
"Jayden where are you going?" Rylee was a little concerned as Jayden grabbed his leather jacket and walked over to his motorcycle.
"I'm coming with you, like it or not." Ally said firmly but with amusement.
"Wait, what, where is he going?" Rylee wasn't too happy if Jayden was going somewhere Ally wanted to go. That was unusual.
"Out." Was all Jayden said.
"Out where? Jayden, answer me." Rylee was getting pissed too.
Ally looked between the two and when she realized that Jayden wasn't going to answer she answered for him.
"We're going to a bar apparently. Or a club, something along those lines from what I read in his thoughts."
Jayden glared at his sister. Normally he would have told her she wasn't going but right that second he didn't want to waste time arguing.
"What, you can't, why the hell would you do that? And what about Elli Jayden?"
Jayden climbed on the bike and gave his brother a look that could kill. Ally climbed on behind him.
"Tell her she can fuck off and fix her own damn mess." Jayden snarled the words as he started the bike and sped off leaving Rylee standing there staring after him in shock.
As Elli was walking through the woods heading to toward the beach the wind blew and she caught a scent that she knew all too well. She was usually good at controlling her vampire instincts but the condition she was in made it easy to just let it loose. She immediately changed direction and followed the scent of the animal blood. She hid among the trees when she came upon the scent and gazed down the slight incline into the lightly wooded area below.
She spotted the wolf instantly, ripping into it's kill. The smell of the blood made her mouth water but the scent of the wolf called to other senses in her body. She knew her vampire side had taken her over then. Trying ignore the scent of the wolf she quietly moved further through the woods until she found the rest of the deer a few yards away. She took one down easily and quickly killed it as she sunk her teeth into it's neck. She drained it slowly, relishing the taste as it coated her throat. When it was drained she tossed it to the ground and wiped her mouth on the back of her hand. She heard a deep growl off to the side and her head snapped around.
Mykah had sensed Elli the second she had approached. He waited until she slinked away and then stealthily followed her. He watched as she took down her prey, his instincts warring with themselves. He moved closer and when she tossed the deer aside a growl escaped from his throat. He wasn't sure what he was growling at but he could see Elli's eyes that were now bright and full of life. Other than her eyes she looked every part of the vampire she was. She crouched for a moment as if debating whether he was a threat or not. He crept forward in a stalking way, his wolf leading him. He had been so angry when he left her with Bryce that he had let his wolf take him over. Now it seemed half of his wolf wanted to attack while the other half wanted to claim it's mate. Elli brought him out of his thoughts with a snarl before she disappeared.
Mykah quickly gave chase and easily caught her scent. He stopped at the bottom of the tree he was now in front of and gazed up. Elli was crouched high in the tree watching him from her perch. He let out a frustrated little growl at not being able to get to her. He couldn't read her expression but he could feel her tension and fear but he could also sense soemthing else. He knew he should change back but at that moment, seeing her look more vampire then human and being out of his reach, he decided to stay in his current form.
Elli gazed down at the wolf on the ground. She knew it was Mykah but she wasn't ready to deal with him yet, or with the flood of emotions running through her. She wondered how long he would actually stay there before giving up and leaving. Frustrated she leaned back against the tree and closed her eyes.
Jayden parked the bike and jumped off, not bothering to see if Ally was following. He walked to the doors of the bar or club or whatever the hell they wanted to call the place. It was kind of both since there was dancing and food and alcohol.
He walked through the doors and started to make his way to the bar but a scent that hit him made him stop in his tracks. It was only then he realized that Ally was right behind him and she bumped into him.
"Jayden, what the hell, why did you stop like that?"
Jaydens eyes darted around the room and he spotted the female dancing on the dance floor. All his senses were oddly heightened lately and he knew she was a wolf. Ally followed his gaze and tried to sniff the air without being to obvious.
"Shit, Jayden..."
Jayden just stood there as the female spotted them and locked her eyes with his. She seemed shocked at first then narrowed her gaze.
Ally grabbed Jaydens arm and pulled him toward the bar. Once she started to tug on him he finally moved. He rushed past his sister to the bar and quickly ordered the strongest drink they had. Ally pulled out her phone and dialed waiting for her brother to pick up.
Luckily he picked up on the first ring.
"Rylee, you need to get here fast, we may have trouble and I don't think I can persuade Jayden to leave." She then told Rylee where they were.
"Alright but what kind of trouble Ally?" Rylee sounded concerned.
"There's a female wolf here, and it's not Siana. I don't know if she is going to start trouble or not. Just get here..." She paused and noticed the female watching her. "Fast." She didn't wait for her brothers response. She shoved her phone back in its case and walked over to where Jayden was downing another drink.
"Jayden, we should leave." Ally practically hissed at him.
"I'm not leaving Ally. I haven't done anything wrong. If she has a problem with me, or you, being here, whoever she is, she can leave." Jayden hissed right back as he ordered another drink. Ally looked back to where the female had been and cursed. She scanned the dance floor then the rest of the club. She spotted her whispering something to a male, both of them looking at her and Jayden.
"Shit, Jayden, she's not alone. We need to get out of here now."
Jayden glanced past Ally for just a second and then turned back to his drink. "I'm not leaving. If you're scared of a couple wolves you can leave without me. Take the bike if you want. I'll find my way back."
Jayden set the keys in front of her.
"Are you crazy, I'm not leaving you here with two wolves who have no clue who we are. Dad will be pissed if we cause any sort of trouble. We need to leave Jayden."
"I'm not going to cause trouble Ally, and I'm not leaving." Ally and Jayden had been whispering trying to keep their voices low. Another voice interuppted their bickering.
"Are you sure you don't want to reconsider that?" Jayden turned on the stool to face the male and female now standing in front of him and Ally.
The male was rough looking with jet black hair that was disheveled and storm gray eyes. The female was rather petite with golden brown curls and hazel eyes.
Jayden smiled wickedly allowing his fangs to show. "I have no reason to leave. I just got here after all. I think I'll stay awhile, see if theres any fun to be had." Jayden knew he was playing with fire tempting the wolves who had no idea what he really was but he didn't care.
The two wolves snarled quietly as they looked from Jayden to Ally and back.
"He didn't mean it really, he's just in a bad mood. We're not a threat to anyone." Ally tried to stay calm as she glared at her brother.
"Speak for yourself." Jayden mumbled but the wolves still heard and snarled again.
Ally smacked his arm.
"I think you both need to leave and not come back. Now." It was the male who spoke. Ally could see the slight tremble he had.
"And who's going to make me?"
The male wolf reached out and grabbed Jaydens arm. Jayden yanked his arm away and shot of his seat, now standing in front of the other male. "If you touch me again, I will take you outside and tear you to shreds."
Ally's quiet snarl made him glance back to see the female was about to grab her.
"DON'T TOUCH HER!" It was a whispered snarl but it got the point across. The female stopped unsure now what to do. She stepped back toward the male.
"Bloodsuckers aren't welcome here, you need to leave now." The male kept his voice low but harsh so only Jayden and his sister would here.
Jayden snarled again and was about to punch the guy when someone grabbed his arm and pulled him backwards.
"What the fuck!" He spun around to see his brother.
"This isn't the place Jayden." He gripped his brothers arm tight knowing he would have a hell of a time holding him back.
"I didn't start this, they did." Jayden was furious and he started shaking now.
Rylee looked to the two standing not far from them now. He saw the other male shaking as well but both of them looked a cross of angry as hell and confused.
He looked quickly to Ally and she just nodded letting him know she was ok. Then he turned back to his brother and the other two wolves.
"I suggest we ALL take this outside before someone gets hurt." He glared at the two wolves "and I can guarntee you it will be one of you that gets it." The two wolves growled but said nothing else.
Rylee started to drag Jayden past them toward the door with Ally on his heels. He spoke to his brother in his thoughts hoping he would listen. 'Quit fighting me and take it outside before you both explode in a crowd of people and expose us. You need to calm down. Christ, what the hell were you thinking Jayden?'
Jayden growled quietly at his brother. 'I told you they started it. Not my fault they can't take a joke and jumped to conclusions. I have every right to be here and so does Ally. They're not going to scare me away. They want to fight, I'll give them a fight.'
'No one is going to fight anyone. Do you understand?'
Jayden ignored that comment as they finally made it outside. Rylee kept hold of his arm until they got to the far end of the parking lot. Luckily there was a wooded area there that led into a forest should one of them explode. Ally stood beside Jayden on the other side of him and rubbed his arm trying to calm him down.
The other two wolves stopped about a foot away from them. The male looked at Rylee and Jayden let out a low growl. The male ignored that as he spoke to Rylee.
"You're a wolf."
"So are you. Wanna tell me what was going on in there?"
The male didn't answer him just then.
"But you're twins, you and the leech."
Jayden let out a growl purposely barring his fangs.
"Not helping Jayden!" Rylee almost growled at him.
"What about her, is she his mate?"
Ally half laughed and half growled. "Guess again mutt."
Rylee rolled his eyes at his sister and let out a frustrated huff. "Can't you two play nice? I know it's hard for you two, but you know they're just trying to keep everyone safe. They don't know us." Rylee then turned back to the other two. "She's our sister, and neither of them will hurt anyone."
"How is that possible, you're a wolf, they're leeches..."
Rylee let out his own warning growl then. "Watch it, they are my siblings and I will protect them at any cost, not that they need it. My sister is..." Jaydens growl cut him off.
"It's none of their business what we are Ry."
"It is our business when there's bloodsuckers in the human population as I'm sure your brother knows." The male growled out.
Rylee had to pull Jayden back hard to keep him from attacking. He was shaking hard and when Rylee grasped both his arms and looked at him he saw his eyes were pitch black.
"Shit! Jayden!" Jayden closed his eyes and took a deep breathe but it didn't help.
Rylee spoke in his thoughts again. 'You need to leave now Jayden, before you explode or do something you'll regret.'
Ally spoke quietly but you could hear the anger in her voice from what the other two said. "Rylee, he shouldn't go alone."
"I'll be fine Ally, go with him. Where's the keys to the bike?"
Ally pulled out the keys she grabbed and tossed them to Rylee. She grabbed Jaydens arm but Jayden wouldn't budge.
'I'll be fine Jayden. They won't hurt me. Ally wouldn't leave if she had read any intentions of that. Get out of here now.'
Jayden finally opened his eyes. He glared at the other two wolves as he took off his leather jacket, giving it to Rylee, then turned and ran past Ally into the trees. The second he was inside the wooded area he exploded into his wolf. Ally followed him quickly snickering as she heard the gasps of the other two.
