A/N: Sorry this chapter is short guys…I was really losing it on this one for some reason. My apologies. Hopefully the next one will be better. Happy readings!

Casey is rambling about something that she knows Alex probably isn't listening to as they walk through the office. She freezes when she sees Kristen leaning against the wall outside of her office waiting for her. Turning to Alex, she notices the blonde wears a dark and angry expression; this might not end to well.

"I'll talk to her…" Casey says softly, not wanting Alex's temper to get the best of her.

"I want to go with you." Alex says as she begins tow walk towards Kristen, only to be stopped by a harsh tugging on her arm.

"No, you won't. You're going to go to your office, and you're going to sit there and prepare for your meeting. Go on…go." Casey replies sternly as she begins shoving Alex in the direction of her office.

Alex huffs greatly and gives Kristen a deathly glare before she quickly makes her way down the hall and back to the sanctuary of her office.

Casey watches Alex disappear before she turns back towards Kristen and takes a deep breath, preparing herself for the conversation at hand.

"Hi…" she says awkwardly as she approaches the blonde officer, who appears to have been watching her intently.

"Hi…." Kristen responds feeling her anger build as she can smell the leech's scent all over Casey.

"We should…we have to talk…." Casey says as she motions for Kristen to enter her office. Kristen nods her head and reluctantly follows her inside.

After a long awkward silence, Casey finally comes up with words that will at least get the conversation started.

"So…um…I guess I just felt that I needed to tell you that we can't see each other any more."

"Because of Alex." Kristen adds on, already knowing Casey's reasoning.

Casey inhales sharply and nods her head. "Yes… I-I love her and I want to be with her…and…what ever this was between us really wouldn't have worked…I'm sorry I lead you on…"

Kristen grits her teeth together tightly and she feels her blood begin to boil. "Why?"

"Why what?" Casey inquires confusedly.

"Why do you want to be with her? You can't…I imp-…I need you."

Casey blinks several times trying to get her brain to catch up. "You…you don't mean that…I'm with Alex now."

"Then I'll fight for you." Kristen explains, the effects of her imprinting taking a huge toll on her thought patterns.

Casey shakes her head and stares at the floor, feeling shame for being the cause of the other woman's anguish.

"There's no need…I'm with Alex, and I want to be with her because I love her…I'm sorry…" she whispers.

Kristen's anger towards Alex amplifies by probably a thousand percent, and she feels the wood of the chair begin to break under her harsh grip. For a second, she actually feels like she's going to phase but she knows that it can't happen, especially in such a confined space as a mortal office building.

She takes a deep breath and releases her hold on the chair as she begins to mask her anger. "Fine…if that's what you want..."

"You're upset…" Casey murmurs once again feeling shameful.

"I'll be fine." Kristen retorts curtly as she spins on her heel and leaves with out giving Casey room to apologize once more. She needs to leave, and she needs to leave now.

As soon as she steps out of Casey's office, she finds herself being yanked by her collar and slammed roughly into the wall, meeting gazes with the very thing she despises most in this world.

"You imprinted on her." Alex hisses sharply, her hand poised to squeezes the life out of Kristen; witnesses or no witnesses.

"Its not like I was trying to." Kristen responds as she wraps her hand around Alex's wrist, ready to utilize her own strength if need be.

"You need to stay away from her mutt, or you'll have to deal with me, and trust me when I say that you don't want that."

"Not if I kill you first leech."

"Uh…if you two are done with name calling…"

Both heads snap towards Amanda who is standing awkwardly as if she's just walk up on something she really wants nothing to do with. "Alex, I need to speak with you."

Alex releases her hold on Kristen and walks away, silently giving the detective the command to follow her.

"What was that about?" Amanda asks Kristen who simply shrugs her shoulders. The shorter blonde shakes her head and follows Alex to her office. 'Some weird shit goes on in this DA's office….'

Kristen growls deep in hr throat as she recalls the recent, uninviting feeling of Alex's cold hand wrapped around her throat. 'This isn't over.'

Casey leans against her desk, thinking about how angry Kristen seemed when she left, when she sees Abbie walk by her office.

"Abbie, can you come here for a sec?" she calls out knowing very well that the brunette heard her.

Seconds later, Abbie steps into the room, giving Casey a look of concern. She knows that Casey thinks she's a little scary and she can't imagine what she would need her for.

"Yeah?" she wonders curiously.

Casey approaches Abbie and stands in front of her as if she's looking for something. "Can you open your mouth?"

Abbie's face contorts into a skeptical scowl. "Why…?"

"Just…can you?"

There is an awkward silence before Abbie reluctantly opens her mouth wondering what the hell is going on.

Casey ducks her head and begins examining the inside of Abbie's mouth looking for fangs. She knows that it's a silly thing to do, but she forgot to ask Alex, and so she did the next thing that came to mind.

She notices that all of Abbie's teeth are perfect and look like that of a normal human mouth, if not better. No fangs.

"Hmm…okay, that's all I wanted." She concludes stepping away.

Abbie closes her mouth and stares at Casey as if she has three heads. She then begins searching for any signs of a mental illness, only to come up empty.

"And what was that…you know…never mind…I don't think I want to know." she says as she slowly backs out of the room, wanting to keep her distance from the strange redhead for the time being.

Casey giggles slightly and feels slightly victorious for making Abbie feel uncomfortable. Well, at least she got her one good laugh for the day.

Later

"I am going to kill her….we are going to kill her." Kristen spits angrily as she paces the room back and forth.

"I hate the blood suckers just as much as the next wolf, but I don't see why we need to kill her." Vickie says, being the voice of reason of the group only to recoil when Kristen shoots her a look.

"We need to kill her because she is the only thing standing in the way of me getting what I want…what I need." Is the strangled response, almost sounding painful.

The pack has noticed that ever since the night that Kristen imprinted on Casey, her mood has been all over the place. Everything she says is either out of one of two things; anger or pain. Pain being the one that is spoken more often than not.

It's completely understandable to most of them, with the exception of Kate who is still relatively young and learning. They understand Kristen's need to be with Casey at all and any costs, even if it means wanting to violently eliminates any and all factors that stand in the way.

"So do we have a plan?" Cameron asks, speaking up for the first time that night.

"Easy, the next time they come out here, rip them to shreds. I have always wanted to know what it would look like to watch a leech be beheaded." Stacie pipes up excitedly.

"We could always lure them out here." Andi suggests thoughtfully.

"Because that would work…they're too smart for that…" Kristen mumbles, feeling her heartbreak just a little bit more every second. s

Kate sits silently watching her sister pace back and forth. She's just as angry as the rest of the group, but probably for a whole different reason. Ever since her sister met this Casey, she hasn't been herself, and Kate misses that.

She notices Kristen has been more violent and aggressive towards things, and that's probably because of her anger towards the vampire. Hell, they make her angry too, but not as much as they do Kristen.

"Isn't that the cowardly thing to do? Lead them out here just to kill them?" Vickie wonders out loud.

"Because six wolves can go storm the streets of New York with out being noticed…" Stacie responds sarcastically.

Kristen sinks down to the floor, her breathing becoming labored from the horrible mixed feeling of sadness and anger. She knows that she has to do something about the leech, and she knows she has to do something fast.

"I have a plan…"

Meanwhile…

Alex sits in her office with Amanda going over something regarding the current case they're working. The office is mainly vacant for everyone is usually gone by then, but they're fairly used to the late nights of working.

Alex fidgets uncontrollably in her chair as temptation sweeps through her body. Her throat burns ferociously that she feels like it has been lit on fire. She can taste the pooling venom in her mouth and she helplessly tries to swallow it, only for it to return.

"Alex…are you alright?" Amanda asks curiously noticing the blonde's sudden strange behavior.

Alex nods her head but accidentally snaps her metal pen in half from gripping it so hard. The action itself spikes Amanda's curiosity and she knows that something's wrong.

"Alex…?" The detective asks again after a very long silence, curious on why she hasn't yet seemed a response. Cautiously, Amanda gets out of her chair and walks around to Alex's chair.

She has barely rested her hand on the blonde's shoulder, when she feels a cold hand grasping her firmly by the neck. It doesn't take long to realize the hand belongs to Alex and it seems as if her grip is tightening.

"Alex what the hell…let go…" Amanda gasps out as she aimlessly tries to remove Alex's hand from her neck. She's positive that she's turning blue from the lack of oxygen and she's starting to see spots.

Amanda then feels herself quickly backed against the wall and she notices Alex's usual icy blue eyes are completely black. They're so black that the color actually reminds Amanda of death.

Unable to speak, the detective continues to lightly struggle against Alex's strength as she vaguely notices the other woman's sudden interest in her neck; looking almost hungry.

Amanda's efforts the release the vice grip to her throat are fading as her body starts to take the affects of the lack of oxygen not only to the lungs but to the brain as well. She inwardly starts to panic when she feels Alex's teeth graze lightly against the flesh of her neck. Not a lot usually scares Amanda, but right now she can say she's physically, mentally, and emotionally terrified.

Ooo me and those damn cliffhangers…I did it again didn't I? Sorry! Leave a review?
