"Callie!"
Callista looked over the ledge of the Balcony to see CaNine standing near the pool. "Hey CaNine. What brings you here?"
CaNine gave her a lopsided grin. "Your Father said you could use a friend." He stated.
Callista leaned on the ledge and smiled. 'Peace offering dad' She thought. "I'll be right down." She told him, climbing up on to the ledge and leaping into the pool. She surfaced laughing.
"Haven't done that in awhile." She stated swimming to the edge.
CaNine laughed as he reached down to give her a hand up. Instead she pulled him with her. "Thanks." CaNine said sarcastically.
"Actually now that I think about it, nothing smells worse then wet dog." She said, grinning as she called him a dog.
CaNine growled before diving under the water and pulling her down by her feet. "I'm no dog."
He stated as they surfaced and they pulled themselves out of the water.
"No comment." Callista said laughing as she went and sat on one of the lounge chairs,
waiting for her clothes to dry. She looked over to see CaNine in wolf form shaking the water off his body. "Hey Buddy watch where you are throwing that." She told him. He yelped happily before turning human. He manifested clothes to his body, as he took a seat beside her. They had been friends to long for him to be ashamed of being naked in front of her, and she was used to it by now.
"Ahh nice and dry." He said, grinning.
Callista looked at her wet clothes then scowled at CaNine. She grinned wickedly as a breeze picked up and steadily grew warmer drying her clothes. "Nice and dry." She commented.
"I'd say that would be cheating... but." He said, grinning.
The silence was broken by Callistas' cellphone blaring 'Mean' by Taylor Swift. Callista looked up at the railing and got up to climb on the trellis. CaNine flashed up to the balcony and flashed back to the pool side. "Thanks." She told him, as she flipped her phone open. "Hey Tabbs."
"KID. GOOD COULD I ASK YOU A FAVOUR?" Her Aunt Tabitha asked. She didn't like to be called 'Aunt' at least not by her grown up nieces and newphews since they looked to be the same age. There were pluses when it came to being immortal.
"Yeah. What's up?" She listened to her Aunt talk about her covering the store for the night shift. "Yeah no worries." Callista looked at her watch. "Yeah I can make it. I'll use CaNine air." She said, laughing along with her Aunt as CaNine snickered. "Yup see you soon. luv ya." She closed her phone. "Do you mind?" She asked him.
"Nope." He answered leaning back in the lounge chair.
"All right. Let me grab my bag and I'll be right down." She started walking towards the patio doors, when suddenly she was reaching for the glass doors to her bedroom. She looked over the ledge. "Warning would be nice." She told CaNine, who had his arm draped over his eyes. He just grinned at her.
She entered her room and started collecting things incase her Aunt Tabby decided to kidnap her for the night. She threw a few weapons in the top. She dressed quickly, picking a blood red corset with black lace accents. She pulled on dark blue fitted jeans. She stepped back onto the balcony. "Now will I have to jump into the pool again to get down?" Before she could finish the sentence she was standing beside CaNine. "Thanks."
CaNine grabbed her hand and the next second she was standing in the back alley of her Aunts'
store. Pandoras' Box. It was a in-the-family business, and once Aunt Tabby tired of it, the store would be her. Tabithas' girls weren't interested in taking over the store. Not that they didn't dislike the store, they just wanted to go in a different direction. Pandoras' Box was a well to put it bluntly a sex toy and accessories shop. "Thanks CaNine." She told him.
"My pleasure." He said bowing low, as he disappeared.
Callista walked through the storage room and into the store. "Tabb?" She called out.
"Oh thanks Kid." Her Aunt said, coming out of the dressing room, wearing her usual colour.
Black. Today was very womens' dream the LBD.
"Damn. Where is Uncle V taking you?"
"Some fancy restaurant." She told her smiling, as she stood in front of the full length mirror. "Grab me some earrings?" She asked.
Callista walked over to the counter where Aunt Tabby laid out her accessory choices, that she had brought with her. Callie grinned as she grabbed the skull earrings and the coffin necklace.
"I wish I had a guy who would buy me a real crystal coffin necklace." She stated as she did the clasp over her Aunt.
Tabitha laughed. Well when you finally bag the rich hunk of male that CaNine and Halos'
girls have been chatting about. I'll tell him." She told her, grinning at her in the mirror.
"Thanks. I do believe you are done. In a nick of time too." She said nodding to the door."
"I hate how you do that." She told her. "It's not even magical." She said pouting.
Callista grinned as she headed to the counter. Her Uncle Valerius came into the store looking sharp as always in one of his many armani suits. "Sup V." She said, grinning. One thing about her Uncle is that he hated her grammar. Though he usually blamed it on hanging out with Aunt Tabbs when he wasn't around.
"Hello Callista." He greeted, not looking away from Tabitha.
"Please if you two are going to undress each other with your minds, could you not do it in front of your VERY impressionable niece." She told them, faking disgust. He pivoted on her heels and headed to the storage room.
"No need. We are leaving." Uncle Valerius said, as they headed to the door.
"Bye have fun." She called after them. She took a seat on the stool behind the counter and started flipping through a catalogue her Aunt left out.
The bell above the door jangled and she looked up to see three guys roughly the same age as her. She slightly frowned at them. They seemed familiar. They all looked at her and grinned. As soon as they grinned she knew she was in trouble. The only thing she had going for her was that they thought she was blind. The taller of the three grabbed her. He seemed to be incharge of the other two. He leaned forward and but his head to her shoulder. As soon as he took a deep breath through his nose did she realize what they were. Were-hunters. "You reek of him." He growled at her. He pushed her towards the other two and they each grabbed an arm.
She looked at them confused. "Who?" She asked as the two lankies gripped her arms tighter as she struggled.
"CaNine filth." He spat at her.
This time she hissed at him as the catalogues came falling down on his head. She picked up the cash register with her mind and started bashing the lanky on her right head in. She twisted out of the others grip and ran for the door. The first one caught up to her and tackled her to the ground before she could get to the door.
