Marie's POV

We arrived at the cottage just a few hours before the sun would rise. The boys quickly disappeared in their rooms, leaving Dan and me in the living room. I thought this was the best time to confront him about the people chasing us and what he had planed. I grabbed his hand and pulled him into our room. “Dan, I was wondering.” He looked at me confused before he sat down on the bed. “You know the people chasing you, who are they?” He looked uncomfortable, certainly it wasn't the nicest thing to talk about before bed but my mind couldn't stop coming up with all those questions about them. He cleared his throat before he pulled me into his lap. “Well, there are quiet a few people chasing us actually.” He chuckled a bit, making a small smile appear on my face before it quickly disappeared. “There are people who believe in Vampires following us, trying to prove we really exist, than there are werewolves, trying to save their own existence because they think we'll destroy them and ..” He stopped he must have seen the shock on my face.

Dan's POV

Marie looked scared and shocked. I quickly took her face in my hands and gently forced her to look at me. “Do you remember what I promised you, when I had to leave the first time?” She frowned and started to shake, she realised how dangerous the situation really was. “Do you remember,love?” She bit her lip “Nothing will ever happen to me as long as you are around” She mumbled. I pulled her face closer so our foreheads were touching. “That's right, love, I will never ever let anyone hurt you. I love you so much, I could never live without you.” I pulled her down on the bed next to me and wrapped my arms around her, holding her tight. It took some time before Marie fell asleep. I stood up and walked into the backyard. I looked up at the moon. Full moon. The sound of werewolves howling filled the air. My whole body tensed. This wasn't good, they were close a bit too close for my taste. Good thing for us they can't tell the diffrence between human and vampire until we show our fangs. “They are close.” I turned around and saw Woody standing at the door. “They are.” I confirmed. “I doubt we can stay here longer than a week. Teaching M how to haunt will be messy and they smell the blood. Lucky for us we didn't hunt here tonight.” I nodded my head. “We need to change houses every week until M is expirenced enough.” Woody nodded before sitting down on the staires. “How are you feeling, mate?” I sat down next to him. I frowned “It is so quiet, a bit too quiet don't you think?” We looked around but couldn't see anything. “Do you hear that as well?” Woody asked me. I paused for a minute listening to the for humans silent night, but I could here it as if it would be right next to my ear, a pack running in our direction. I nodded my head before jumping up and running into the house. We looked the doors and woke everyone up.
