Connor watched with a warm, contented fondness as Luka fell asleep. She really was a beautiful woman. Her dark skin and hair were so exotic, and her lips were so full and delicious. The Irishman sighed and shook his head at himself. He'd become such a sap since meeting her, but then again he'd become a lot of things. Connor stretched before sinking onto the bed beside his new mate, then wrapped his arms around her middle and joined her in slumber.

The officials left nothing but a note ment for Kat before lugging the heavy wolf body out of the office and down into their black, windowless van and then they drove. They drove for hours and hours until they were in the middle of nowhere, they had left the road and carried the body far off into an untouched part of the forest and deposited it. Then the two men got back in their van and drove back to the company.
-----
Kat wandered around the cabin angerly. Not knowing what to do with herself. As evening started to fall and she grew a little more active she became even more impatient. It was well after the time that the two of them normaly made it home when she really started to worry. Something didn't feel right. Finally making up her mind, she left a quick note incase he came home while she was gone, she headed out the door. She planned to walk or jog the entire way to the school.
Luckily half way to the school one of the kids in her piano class drove by and recognized her running along teh road. He stopped and picked her up. He was a bit concerned because he hadn't seen her or their teacher in class that day but Kat waved the notion of any romantic bussiness away from his mind by being rather flirtatious and leaving him with a soft peck before hoping out of the truck and heading straight for the music building.
What she found in Curtis's office made her skin crawl. She would have cried if she wasn't so angry. Someone had taken him. She growled as she caught the scents of two men, one were, one human. Then she found the note.
Dear Katra,
We have something you might desire returned to you. We only tooke him to ensure your cooperation. Please meet me, Mr. Watson, at the company tonight. We cannot promise much, due to his fighting spirit. If something were to happen because of his uncooperativeness, we are greatfully sorry.
It went on describing the location in which she was supposed to meet this man. Furious, Kat tore the note up into a bunch of tiny peices. Her brother was working for the same company. He seemed to think highly of them but she wondered if he even truely cared about her, and if he was just doing his job.
She had to get out of the room, it was starting to make her dizzy. She ran out but once outside, she wasn't sure what to do. Should she go to the company and this Mr. Watson? Or should she wait untill it was dark enough for her brother to be out and hope that she ran into him? She quickly gave up on the notion that her brother would help her, instead she headed straight for the location the note and told her.

Luka's eyes blinked open in the morning sunlight. It really had been a while since she was used to waking up to someone in the morning. She hadn't realized how much she missed it untill now.
~~~~~~
Yakov laughed. "I don't care what you want. Get yourself dressed and move your a**."

Jeff grumbled and reluctantly put on his clothes. He made a face at Yakov before standing up and streatching. "I'll see you in a few hours," and he left Yakov with a gentle kiss before disapearing out the door.

It was the song of crickets that woke Curtis, and when his eyes opened he was far from his office. In fact, he assumed himself to be nowhere near. There wasn't a hint of city smell on the air; just trees and wildlife for miles. He swore and rose shakily to his feet before sniffling around, trying to find his way back home and back to Katra.
***
Luka was shifting in his arms and Connor did not approve. He groaned sleepily and held her tighter, nuzzling into her soft hair.

Luka smiled. It seemed Connor wanted to sleep in. Well that was just too bad for him. She slid out of his arms and smacked his a**. "Come on boy. We've got stuff to do today."
~~~~~~
Yakov took the opportunity of Jeff's absence to collapse onto the bed and sleep.

Kat aproached the ordinary looking building with caution. Though her anger got her to storm into the building. She was rather surprised by how fancy the inside lobby area looked. There was a normal looking brunett working the counter, taking calls and typing away at a computer. It was the scents that confused Kat the most. Her nose was blasted by the combination or human, were, vampire, and who knows whatelse.
She stomped up to the receptionist's counter and realized how short she was. Her head barely made it over the counter. The receptionist turned to face her and sniffed the air before speaking. "Katra Benson? Will you please head over to the elevators and go up to the 13th floor. There should be a secretary up there to let you in to see Mr. Watson." She finished with a bob of her head in the direction of the elevators and then turned back to the computer and answered another call.
Kat stood there a second to register what had just happened and then slowly turned and went to the elevators.

Connor growled and yanked the blankets up over his head, grinning once he was out of sight. If she wanted him up, she would have to earn it.
***
Though it took a while, Curtis finally managed to find the scent of a truck and then began to follow it, hopefully either back towards the city or where his captors had gone.

Jeff came bursting into Yakovs room and bounded onto the bed. He had heard Yakov snoring down the hall and couldn't alow it to continue whilst he had to go to class.
-----
Kat made it to the 13th floor and a highstrung blonde shoved her into a large conference room. Seated at the head of the long table she assumed to be Mr. Watson. He stood up, walking towards her and solomely shaking her hand. "I'm so glad to agreed to help us, but I'm affraid I have some rather unsettling news."
Kat glared at him and pulled her hand from his grasp. "Where is he..." She growled, and her fangs extended. She could tell he was a vampire as well but he had taken her mate and she wasn't going to stand for it.
"I understand your anger Ms. Benson, but we didn't intend to take him by force. We originally just wanted to talk to him but he grew enraged and we had to sedate Professor Burnel. He was taken to one of our facilities out of town but on the way there we woke up and dove out of the vehicle. I'm affraid he timed it too soon and hit a jagged cliff. When the crew went down to retreive him...I'm affraid he didn't quite make it..."

Luka shook her head and than crawled under the blankets. She slid right up next to Connor and kissed him. Once he was throughly engaged, she gave him a shove, sliding him off the bed and onto the floor. She stood over him, hand out stretched. "Well, since you're out of bed now, you might as well get up."
~~~~~~
"All right, all right, I'm awake. I swear." Yakov laughed and shook his head. Had it been anyone else but Jeff, he would have killed them by now.

Jeff smiled, sitting back on his knees. "Good, because if I have to awake, everyone has to. Besides, you said you would help me pick out...straight people clothes..."

Connor did rise, but it was only with a great deal of muttering. He stretched, yawned loudly, and scratched his butt.
"What time is it?" he grumbled.
***
He must have been out for quite a while, for Curtis was still following the trail when the dawn was breaking. He had a feeling, however, that he was growing quite close.

Kat was speachless for a long stretch of time. When she did speak, her voice was shaky. "Wha...what?...Are you sure? Where is he now? I want to see him!"
Mr. Watson put a reassuring arm around her, "I'm sorry, dear. But there wasn't much of him that was recognizable. The rocks...well they did quite a number on him. I don't think...her would want you to remember him like that...but if you want, I can have his body shipped here by the morning..."
Kat shook her head and closed in on herself. She was too numb to cry. She didn't speak or move. Her mind became sluggish. 'This can't be happening...' ran over and over like a broken record.
Mr. Watson pushed a small button on a nearby wall and a tall blue-eyed man came into the room. He had a long scar over one eye, and that eye's color was off. It was cloudy and almost translucent. He had long shaggy blonde hair. Mr. Watson motioned to him, "Would you please escort Ms. Benson here to her room." He then turned away and went back to whatever he had been doing.
The tall blonde took one of Kat's arms and gently led her out of the room and to an elevator in the back of the secretaries office. It went down forever. Kat was silent and her eyes glazed over. She just stopped caring. The man escorted her into a small but nicely furnished and comfortable room that could compete with top hotels. He sat her on her bed and looked her up and down before shutting the door and locking it behind him. She had seemd familiar, but he couldn't place it. And something about the way she smelled and felt under his grip. It was as if she was sick, but...not. He tried to shrug it off and went back to work.

"Sevenish. Or more acurately, time to deal with being a part of two different societies with completely different rules." Luka began rummaging for clothes.
~~~~~~
Yakov collapsed back onto the bed. "I think you'll have to carry me to the car."
