Disclaimer: I don't own Underworld. If I did, people would hate me.

A/N:OMG ! I am so sorry ! I completely forgot to update. It'll never happen again, I swear. This chapter is short, I know, but it'll get a whole lot better. Trust me. Cookies to anyone who is still reading :)


Khalid walked into Cadent's room, and over to where she had tossed her bags down. She opened one of the bags and began going through it. After a few moments, she pulled out a bag of blood, and tossed it to Selene.

"Here," she said. "You're probably just as hungry as Michael."

"Why do you have blood ?" Mace asked as Khalid continued going through the bag.

"Well, Selene showed up, and I figured that she'd need it," Khalid said, pulling out another bag of blood, and partially frozen steak. "Which one do you want, Michael ?"

"Uh...the steak," Michael said.

"Here," Khalid said, tossing the steak to Michael. Michael caught it and ripped into it, eating it in three bites.

"Make with the explanations, Khalid," Mace said.

"Yes," Selene said, wiping blood off of her face, and tossing away the now empty bag. "You did promise."

Khalid sighed.

"Where do I start ?"

"The Kraven thing would be nice," Mace said.

"Kraven is Eli's...father," Khalid said.

"WHAT ?" Mace, Selene, and Michael all said at the same time.

"Yeah, I know," Khalid said. "What was I thinking, right ?"

"But I thought...You...Kraven ?" Mace stammered.

"You thought what ?" Khalid asked.

"Well, I...Nevermind," Mace said.

"Fine. Any other questions?" Khalid asked.

"So, Eli is a Hybrid ?" Michael asked.

"Yes," Khalid said.

"If you already had a Hybrid, why'd you need me ?" Michael asked.

"Take that up with Lucian, not me," Khalid said.

"How do you know Ryan and Rhian ?" Selene asked.

"I'm their younger sister," Khalid muttered.

"WHAT ?"

"You heard me," Khalid said.

"Is that even possible ?" Michael asked.

"Yes," Khalid said.

"How ?"

"I was bitten by Lucian, and they were bitten by Amelia."

"Oh," Michael said. Suddenly, Selene yawned, getting everyone's attention.

"Well," Khalid said, glancing at her watch, "it's almost six, so if you want to get some sleep, go right ahead. You can take Cadent's room."

"I don't know," Selene said. "At least 95 of these Lycans want to kill me."

"You can lock the door," Khalid said. "Besides, I don't think that they're stupid enough to attack you."

"Go ahead, Selene," Michael said. "If someone wanted to attack you, they'd have to get past me first."

The smallest flicker of a smile crossed Selene's face before she nodded.

"Alright," she said.

"Well, clear out, guys," Khalid said. Everyone walked out, Selene shutting and locking the door behind them. Mace pulled a red CD out of his pocket.

"I think that now would be the perfect time to introduce all of you to some good American music."


Erika knocked on a wooden door.

"You're late," Rhian called.

"I know," Erika said, opening the door and walking in.

"Why ?" Rhian asked.

"Markus is awake," Erika said.

"WHAT !"

"And he's a Hybrid."

"WHAT !"

"Somehow, Lycan blood got into Markus's coffin, and now he's a Hybrid," Erika said.

"Oh, fuck," Rhian said. "This is NOT good."

"How is it not good ?" Erika asked.

"How are we to know where his loyalties lie ?" Rhian asked.

"Good point," Erika said.

"Is that why Kraven wanted us to dress nice ?" Rhian asked.

"Yes," Erika said. "So, what are you wearing ?"

"I have absolutely no clue," Rhian said. "I was thinking about wearing my Death Dealer outfit, though."

"Don't you dare," Erika said. "You'll never impress any man dressed like that."

"It worked for Selene," Rhian said.

"It wasn't her clothes," Erika said. "It was her attitude."

"Oh."

"Well, come on," Erika said. "I'll find you the perfect dress."

"Fine," Rhian sighed.

"Just wait until you see Markus," Erika said, pulling Rhian into a large walk-in closet. "He's really cute."

"Erika !"
