Mated to a Demigod

"Don't confront them. Not this night, Dad." Little Sera advises her Dad, Jason.

Jason scoffs, "That's why I'm a wolf. I have night vision. I'll let them know I'm indeed a Beta."

He pulls her in for a hug, and kisses her forehead, "I promise, I'll be back."

The name of the pack house rings in Sera's head. "Velvet Shadows Pack."

"Smile for me." Jason stoops, rubbing her cheeks. Sera forces a smile, and shrugs her shoulders.

"Be safe!" She hollers before he is out of sight.

No sooner had he left here than the fight started; Sera hides at a corner, as she watches Jason fight. A pack of wolves attacked her mum and killed her - as though that wasn't enough, her body was served to the vampires mainly for blood sucking benefits.

Jason is on the winning side - which entertains Sera. She winks at him, "defend my mum."

Once she says that, a different being joins the fight. Sera rubs her eyes, running towards her dad.

"Vampire! Dad, watch out!" She screams as her brother emerges from the other direction, to save Jason.

"I'm sorry, you're a bit too late." The vampire snarls, looking at Sera and Dylan, her brother.

"Werewolves, retreat." The vampire commands, kicking Jason to the floor, pointing a dagger to his throat.

"We have no business with you. Get off him." One of the werewolves who was attacking Jason, confronts the vampire.

Sera's breath seizes as ideas keep flowing into her head, prompting her to take a decision - but no, she is hesitant. The vampire is the most dangerous being, except for demons and maybe, Ghosts.

"Sera!" Dylan controls her.

"Don't move. They'll help us." He whispers to her.

"I was only helping you. Step back." The vampire warns the Werewolves - they bow accordingly.

"Now. Go."

The werewolves whine and swiftly depart, the leaves rustling to confirm their honest take-off.

Like a whirlwind, the vampire darts into the darker side of the pack house, leaving Sera and Dylan in shock.

Sera screams, "Leave me!!!"

"What do you want to do?" Dylan attacks her. "Do you even have your wolf activated?"

"I-I don't care!" Sera retorts, her voice breaking. "Dad's all I got. Af-After the vamp took my mum, all he could do was…"

"You're not only in this, okay?" Dylan deadpans, walking away from her.

"Where the hell are you going to?" Sera questions. "To report to the Alpha, maybe? The one who doesn't care about his subjects?"

Dylan stops in his track, and turns to look at her.

"I'm going to find Dad." He informs. Before Sera could say a word, he vanishes in thin air. His wolf had been activated before now, and he could employ his wolf's speed even without shifting yet.

Sera stares at nothingness, wondering the disaster the previous few minutes has brought to her. She walks slowly towards the direction of the vampire but she notices a different shadow, indicating a figure behind her.

"Who's that?" She gently asks, not looking back.

A low growl erupts from behind her. She squints her eyes, attempting to discern the source without turning back. Left to guess, she contemplates it might be a rogue.

"Go home now." A soft masculine voice speaks. She's convinced to look back now.

"I thought there was a stranger here. So I came to check up." He speaks again.

"It's Logan?" Sera asks to confirm.

He pulls her in for a hug.

"Did anything bad happen?"

She shakes her head, "no."

"I'll like to be back inside the pack. Come on in, you need to be safe." Logan, the official security wolf for the pack, welcomes her back into the pack house.

"Did something bad happen?" Logan asks once more, suspicion in his tone.

"Nothing, Logan! Nothing bad." She repeats and rushes to her room without looking back.

Chuckling, she creaks her door open and tiptoes inside. Before she can shut it, Logan is at the door.

She gasps, glaring at him.

"Wondering how fast?" Logan asks, shutting the door himself and leaning his back against it.

"If nothing really happened, then where's Jason?"

Sera stammers, "Ermm…he's fine. He's…like, okay."

"The pack noticed that he's not in the pack house at the moment." Logan retorts, whispering cunningly to her. "... where did he go to?"

Sera rises to her feet, fully aware of the repercussions that befall a Beta who departs from the pack house without prior notification.

"I assure you, it is not as it appears!"
