"Ssssoooo...you're my dad?" She was skeptical. The monster her mother described was more animal than human. This man actually looked kind of nice. Sure, his eyes were amber and he had fangs and claws, but he didn't look like he wanted to tear her throat out. Yet.

"Why did you leave?" She wanted to get this the awkward part over with.

He blew out a big sigh. She deserved to know. "I'm a killer, a monster. It's my job, but the bloodlust is also part of me. It calls itself Sabretooth. It's the part most people see. I didn't know about you and Trent when I left. I hoped your mother and Kyle could have a normal life if I left. I knew they couldn't if I stayed. Maybe if I had stayed this wouldn't have happened." He said the last part more to himself. "I loved her, that why I left. Because I was protecting my pride, pack, family, whatever you want to call it."

"After Kyle died, mom started going crazy. I had to watch, not knowing what to do and hoping you would magically show up and fix everything. She took Trent with her. He wasn't a mutant, but he had a kind of bloodlust. I'm guessing that came from Sabretooth, but I think part of it was her." She paused and turned to him wanting to see his eyes as she said the next part, "I'm glad they're gone."

Victor expected to see hardness in her eyes, but all he saw was pity. "I'm sorry you had to do it, but I think they are happier now that they are gone. Don't get me wrong, I loved them, but there was no way they were happy like that."

They sat in comfortable silence for a while, not needing to say anything.

"You're a mutant."

"Yes."

"What can you do?"

She extended her claws and held them up for his inspection, "Well, I have claws and fangs, mom knew about those. But I also heal really fast and I have really good senses."

"How did you manage to hide when you got the hearing and smell?" He was remembering when he and Jimmy had gotten their senses. Those headaches were the worst pain he had ever had.

"Nose and ear plugs to sleep. I just had to deal with it. I had the claws and fangs when I was born. She hated those, she even pulled them out once. If she knew about the healing and senses, she would kick me out...or worse."

"Worse?"

"She would have tried to kill me."

His only response was a low growl.

"I also have an animal inside me. Is that what Sabretooth is?"

"Yah. I'm sorry you're stuck with it too."

"Don't worry. I can control it. By the way, what do I call you?"

"I don't know, cub. Victors ok, dad if you want. Whatever you're comfortable with."

"I think Victor for now."

Just a reminder: If you see any mistakes, let me know. Plot and name suggestions are welcome and very appreciated. Have an awesome day!
