The sickly snapping of bones rang hot in
Remus's ears. Even as Lyall tried to hold him back his body moved towards Beth. Moony was so anxious about his potential mate's well-being that he nearly exposed himself to Constance. If Remus hadn't had so much practice by being amongst other wizards at Hogwarts he might have. The older man refocused his attention on his daughter. An involuntary turn was excruciating to say the least. The scout must have posed more danger than he had realized earlier and her keen instincts had picked up on it.
"Elizabeth, heel!"
Constance grabbed another lasso and tied her torso up like a dog's body leash. He didn't want to hurt his daughter, but he did have to restrain her from her own violent reaction. She would never be able to forgive herself if she hurt anyone in the house in her state of mind.
Beth yelped when he yanked the lasso tighter around her torso and nipped towards his face with her canines.
Lyall watched with them for the next five minutes as her body contorted in all kinds of unnatural angles. He didn't know who to comfort first; his friend or his son. He looked towards Constance when he heard the low whining coming from the heap of white fur on the living room floor. The fire from the hearth reflected gold and orange hues all over the white canvas of het canine body.
Remus stood, rigid. His eyes never leaving her. He hoped that she remembered him for him and didn't just see the werewolf in him. His father moved to stand beside him and placed a hand on his shoulder. The dark cottage painted an eerie picture now.
The low growling should have been his first red flag.
Beth was up quicker than Constantine could manage and knocked her father aside with her large form. The Lupins stood perfectly still, waiting for her to make her next move and kept their wands at the ready. The wolf sniffed the air until it pointed her in Remus's direction. Her glowing green-grey eyes fixed themselves onto his form before she released a bone-chilling howl that echoed around the corridors of the once homey cottage.
