A/N: Ok first off I want to tell you all how truly sorry I am for not
updating for so long after I said I would. A lot of things happened that
seemed to prevent me from writing, one being I lost someone I loved very
much, and the second being my computer died on me. All of my work is done
on my lap top and my battery cord broke and I didn't have the time or money
to replace it. Anyway, the point is I'm back!! FINALLY!!! And now I can
continue from where I have left off. Sorry I had to desert you after a
cliffhanger ending. Hope you guys like this one. Please review. Thank you
all. -First Death Dealer -
Chapter 7: Nothing to Be Ashamed Of
The cold night air was pierced with a roar of fury, as Raze looked down at his bleeding chest. Five long slash marks that were created by Michael had only now been starting to heal it self. For some reason the healing process was taking longer then expected. The Hybrids claws must cause more damage.
"How could you let him get away? We need him you bunch of IDIOTS!!!" The three Lycans who had run at the sight of the Hybrid were now standing before a bleeding Raze and cringing as his voice as it cut through to their very bones.
"We're sorry sir. We panicked; we shot him and then ran. He looked like he was going to rip us apart if we." The man did not get to finish his sentence, for Raze lashed out at him, grabbing him by the throat and pulling him an inch away from his face.
"He should have ripped you apart; it would have rid you of me. Now you listen to me. We are going to go after him again, only this time, I'm coming with you, and if you run this time, I'll kill you myself. Understood?" The man, who was now turning purple, managed to nod his head.
"Good. Now get out of my sight before I kill you all!" Raze shouted before throwing the man down and tuning his back away from them. Pathetic, he though to himself. Michael had slipped away from him and even managed to wound him. He didn't like that. He didn't like that at all. What confused him the most was that Michael only struck when he mentioned the Blood. Why was that? Could the Hybrid be in love with her? If not then why did he get so angry? Why was he protecting her? Which ever Michael's reason, Raze would find it out. They needed Michael, and if that meant either taking Selene down or having her join them, then so be it. He would do what ever it takes to get to Michael.
He looked down at his chest, seeing that it had fully healed and then turned to a small window, the only window in the interrogation room, and sighed. Dawn was approaching and he watched for twenty minutes until the sun rose high into the sky. With the sun, brought hope to him and his pack.
"We don't want to hurt you Michael, we only want your help." He whispered to himself and turned away from the window and began to get ready for the battle that would soon take place.

"Hold still, only one more."
"Easy for you to say, you're not the one with bullets in your back." Michael winched as Selene pullet out the third and final bullet that the Lycans had short into him. After they had embraced each other for what seemed like an eternity, Selene had finally pulled away only to notice the dried blood on his back and just a few drops that had not dried entirely. They didn't hurt much, but Selene insisted that she take him out in order for him to heal properly. She was shocked to find that his wounds had practically healed with the bullets buried deep inside. She had to cute the wound open again in order to get them out, that's the part the hurt like hell.
They had gone back to the interrogation room that Selene had once brought him to and they would stay there for the rest of the day. Michael had suggested staying at his apartment just for one more night but Selene wouldn't hear of it, saying that it was too dangerous, and that the Lycans would be back, just as they can come back before. Michael now sat on the cold steel table as Selene worked on him.
"Don't worry, I've had my fare share of them." She looked up at him and locked his eyes with hers. She couldn't even begin to express the kind of relief that washed over her when she saw Michael at her door. Let's just say it was far too much for her to ever admit too. He new how she felt though, because he felt the same way. He was so scared that he would come back to find Selene dead or hurt beyond repair. Instead she had not been harmed at all except for the occasional cuts and bruises that came with being thrown from the car, but they where practically healed by the time he saw her.
The sun had come up no more then two hours ago and the steel blinds where once again locked down in place, blocking out the suns warm rays. Selene broke their eye contact and began to clean up the tools that she had been using to clean Michael up. He watched her for a couple of minutes until he looked back over to the blinds, a question forming in his head.
"Do you think that I can go outside?" He looked over at her with his brow raised, still trying to figure out what a Hybrid was allowed and not allowed to do. He was half Vampire and vampires where allergic to sun light, yet he was also half Lycan, and Lycans were free to walk the streets by daytime. Well he wasn't a Lycan or a Vampire; he was a Hybrid, so where did that leave him?
Selene brought her head up and looked into his eyes. The expression on her face was unreadable and her voice was flat, and free on emotion, "I don't know? I've never even herd of a Hybrid until tonight." Selene walked over to him and sat down next to him on the cold steel table.
Michael gave a hollow laugh and looked down at his hand, "I know what you mean."
Selene looked away, feeling guilty for the first time since she was human. She had brought him into this strange new world and she herself couldn't even explain what he was.
"Michael, I'm sorry for bringing you into this.. I didn't know that this would-" She was cut off when Michaels head bent down ever so slightly to place a kiss on her lips. At first she rent rigid and then relaxed into his kiss as Michael deepened it. Some how with that one kiss Michael had managed to let her know that everything was going to be ok. That no matter what, he wasn't ashamed of what he had become. He pulled back and looked into her eyes. His hands were now cupping her face in a gentle caress.
"Don't apologize for something you didn't do. You saved my life. Thank you." He kissed her again and this time when he pulled away he pulled her closer to him and laid down on his back on the steel table, making Selene lay with him. Her head was resting on his chest and her left arm and leg were draped across him. She smiled to herself as warmth spread through out her body, making her feel human once again. She soon fell asleep in his arms and him in hers, as they both slept peacefully for the first time in days.
A/N: First off I just want to say how sorry I am for all of the spelling errors that there always are in these chapters. In case you haven't figured it out yet, I am the most horrible speller in the world. Lol. Anyway, on a happier note, thank you all so much for all of the reviews, they really help me out. Sorry that I didn't include Marcus in this one, I will in the next chapter. Don't worry, it'll get a lot better. ; ) Hope you guys liked it. Please review, Thanks!!!
