A/N: Sorry I have very bad family issues, been sick in the Hospital and signing sheets for me to be my cousin's donor.

…a strait blade dagger, grabbed Selene and held the weapon to her throat. Selene could barely feel the cold metal on her already cold dead skin. She yelped in surprise for it was not something she expected. Michael and Lucian heard her scream with their exquisite hearing and took off down the elaborate hall way.

"Why the fuck do you smell like lycans? You despise those creatures they killed your family." Rigel hissed.

Before Selene could answer Michael and Lucian burst through the doors in hybrid form the two of them grabbed Rigel threw him into the wall crushing the sheet rock.

"Michael Lucian stop it's nothing leave him alone. Lucian I know you think you have to protect me but DON'T! Michael I'll never sleep with you I won't kiss you again, touch you, or bath with you ever again. Stop it this instant and Put him down!" Selene bellowed

Michael and Lucian reluctantly loosened their grip and descended to the floor but let Rigel to fall rather violently.

"Look what you've done to my walls, floor and doors." Victoria said "Let the object of objection become unseen."

A silver ripple glided over the entire room restoring it to its previous state.

"OK your name is Rigel right?" Leah said softly

Rigel could only nod in agreement, Michael and Lucian had dug their hybrid nails into throat and they were bleeding profusely.

"Come with me" Leah replied lifting him so he'd lean on her as she went back down the hall.

Victoria was ready to scold them and put them in their place but Selene beat her to it by 3 seconds.

"WHAT THE HELL WERE THE TWO OF YOU THINKING? YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TREAT ME LIKE A FRAGILE HUMAN OR CHILD; DON'T YOU THINK AFTER A BIT OVER 200 YEARS I HAVE BEEN TAKING CARE OF MYSELF. I THINK VICTORIA WOULD AGREE WITH ME WHEN I SAY IF I FIND EITHER OF YOU ANY WHERE NEAR RIGEL WITHOUT LEAH, VICTORIA OR I PRESEANT THERE'LL BE HELL TO PAY. Do I make myself perfectly clear?"

Michael and Lucian were baffled by Selene her eyes were ice blue and looked deadlier then ever; they could no understand how such a loud voice could come out of someone a small as her, it was scary. Selene left without an answer to catch up with Leah and Victoria who sauntered out of the room at them mentioning of her name. Michael and Lucian looked at each other

"Shall we apologize to them?" Michael nodded at Lucian's offer he couldn't bear to have Selene mad at him at all. As they walked to the infirmary they talked about sports which Michael was surprised that Lucian even knew specific players names and their record averages. They heard Victoria tell Rigel it may sting or tickle when she healed him. He braced himself but it wasn't as bad as he thought instead he was left in a fit of laughter. The laughter subsided at the sight of his attackers; Rigel hissed at their scent and at the sight of Lucian Selene held him back with one hand a clear sign of her saying listen to what I have to say.

"I'm Michael Corvin and I some what apologize for my actions a moment ago I was protecting Selene but maybe we can be friends if no more knives are held to anyone's throat."

"As you probably know I am Lucian my reasons for attacking are the same as Michael, but I know that it will take a longer time for us to befriend each other but my terms are similar to Michael's but here is what I ask, you do not judge me under the terms you have been told by the coven and get to know me."

When everyone looked at Rigel he looked at them back as if the were beyond mad but his look for Selene was one they couldn't begin to try and place the emotions behind, there were too many to choose from. He knew that there would be no chance that Michael or Lucian would get near the coven in a million years so he asked his first question.

"Is there something I should know or understand because this is just absolutely crazy? Why is everyone so protective of Selene?"

"Uuh… I think this would be better if Leah explained it to him."

"What! You want me to what!" Leah screamed.

"Yes you so let's give them some room. Shall we?" Selene persisted confidently at Leah.

"I have know idea what you're up to but I'm not sure I like it. Come with me Rigel I'll show you to your room and explain." Leah replied.

Rigel got up slowly but his pace quickened as he passed Michael and Lucian.

"Michael there is a suit similar to Selene's put it on same to you Lucian." Victoria said.

Everyone left the room, surprisingly Selene went with Michael and Victoria to the weapons room.

Michael complained "How could you stand the closeness of the cloths? UUhhh!"

Selene smiled as she tried to stop herself from cracking up." Stop moving and just relax you'll get use to it."

Michael just couldn't stop, Selene felt he was hurt that he upset her and wanted forgiveness, she knew perfectly well how to stop him from squirming. With out warning or Michael's knowledge Selene kissed him she felt him relax and return the kiss he snaked his arms around her waist. When they broke the kiss she whispered into his ear

"That's better isn't it?"

As she pulled away he grabbed her and entangled his arms with hers while she leaned on his chest.

"Michael you changing me. I lost touch with any form of humanity a long time ago. I'm not sure I remember how to love and I feel something for you but…"

Michael cut her off "Do what you can, just go with the flow of life and don't try to stop it, lets see where it takes us; OK"

Selene nods her head "That seems like a fair plan that I don't object too; Now that that's done tell me about your brother. What does he look like?"

"Humm" lightly rocking Selene "He looks exactly like me except his eyes are a deep emerald green mixed with a light blue. Umm he is afraid to fall in love, again. His fiancé died of cancer a few months age. He is a quite person yet a kick ass doctor. There is not much else to him besides the fact he'll die for anyone he loves."

"Great I'll have to teach him to fight." Selene sighed

"No you won't he is a 10° black belt in judo a karate. When we were 14 we went to Japan to learn the art of their swords."

"Thank God" she kissed him

Since they were busy kissing they did not notice Rigel standing there in utter shock over what he was seeing. Selene who used to be cold hearted, bitterly honest, trusted very few people let alone let someone touch her; was kissing a man a hybrid she meet less than 24 hours ago. "I've been banished to hell or some hell dimension because that shouldn't be real," he thought. Selene and Michael only broke the kiss when they felt someone watching them, and their eyes fell on Rigel.

So you are the one who has captivated my sisters heart. I would love to hear how you made Selene the ice hearted witch melt." Rigel smirked

Selene hugged him and whispered in a soft a deadly voice "You'll pay for that."

"Glad to see we can keep things the same on some level. Now Michael I'm normally quiet and unsocial like Selene here but I have been like a older brother to her and hopefully always will that means I will have to get to know you, however now is not the time we must retrieve your brother."

The three of them shared a few more laughs as they made their way down to the weapons room. AS they were approaching Lucian and Victoria smiled.

"Well I see Rigel is ok with Selene having a matte; my brothers biological or not would have thrown a fit and beat the shit out of them in my presence." Victoria said

"Humph. I'd do the same especial with my daughter." Lucian smiled at the last part.

"W-What are you talking about your daughter?"

"I never told Sonja but the baby was, is… well it's a girl."

Victoria started cracking up she laughed so hard her sides hurt by then Michael, Selene, Rigel and Lucian were bewildered as to why she was laughing.

"What pray tell is so funny?" Rigel asked very amused.

Victoria started to regain her composer. "Sonja spoke to me she said "Bastard I knew he was hiding something from me. I'll make my pregnant ass so blood thirsty he'll crawl back to Hungry." She also said a few things I will not dare repeat."

Hah she'll fix your ass right up Lucian." Leah said smugly as she walked out of the gun cage with several pistols and automatic rifles. Rigel quickly left to help her, Selene snickered under her breath. "My hand started to twitch with anger before Victoria broke out in laughter."

"So are we all set to leave because I haven't seen my brother in around two years and now I'm itching to see him." Michael replied

"Yeah lets leave I have "things" that need to be dealt with and it's almost 7:15 I like to be punctual. Yes I know we are taking private roads but I am only allowed to drive so fast; Leah see you at 8:35 Victoria said somewhat sarcastically.

"Where the hell did you get such expensive guns and so many?"

"First look at where I live, I inherited a shit load of money not counting my trust funds which I still have a least eight more to receive. Two call me Alyssa until we get back. I don't really like talking about money thank you." Alyssa replied as they piled into a black Cadillac Escalade and speed off.
