”That’s going to be kind of difficult. Chance chuckled, and Roxie grinned as he laid down next to her. She snuggled up against him, letting out a small, content noise as he pulled her closer and draped his arm over her hip. She rested her hand on her arm, running her fingers over his skin softly.
Let out a dry laugh in after her question, she looked up slightly but was to comfortable to turn and face him.
”Naahh.” He answered easily, and she let out a relieved breath.
”Roman might be a bit grumpy about it for a while, but the others seem to like you already. You being a werewolf only means that you get to stay here, opposed to with the vamps.” he added, and she grinned. “Daddy isn’t going to like the fact that his son’s dirty tramp is now living with them?” She teased lightly, chuckling.
”Roxie...” Chance began, his tone becoming more serious, and Roxie bit her lip once more.
”Tell me when you start to get a headache, ok?” he gently asked of her, and she quickly nodded. He gave her a light squeeze and she grinned, enjoying the closeness she had with him.
”I just want to say...’ Chance trailed off. He seemed nervous, which was putting her on edge slightly. She already wasn’t in the best of shape, and she knew that it was going to be terrible but she didn’t want to look distressed and make Chance more nervous.
”Don’t... panic. It’s going to be very weird. Everything will be different. You’ll see, hear, smell, feel different. You’ll probably go full wolf first.. after a bit, you’ll feel like you’re going to change back, but you’ll end up half wolf for a few more hours.” As Chance explained to her what she was to expect, she felt her nervousness increase and her heartrate pick up a little.
”But... I’ll be there. Ok? I promise.” he told her softly, and rubbed her side soothingly. Listening to his words and feeling the light touch of his hand, she quickly felt herself relax. With a soft smile on her lips, she turned in his arms to face him. “I trust you.” She looked up at him tenderly, before eversogently touching her lips to his. But before she could move another muscle, a sharp, shooting pain filled her head.
Roxie jerked back, her brow furrowing as she touched her temples. With every movement she made, the sharpness intensified. The pain was so intense, a light whimper escaped her slightly parted lips. “Chance...” She murmured, but was cut off by another whimper. The pain was very slowly spreading, like poison. Fearful, she quickly buried her face in Chance’s chest and held on to him tightly. It was almost as though the closer she got to him, the pain dimmed slightly.
”You’re not the only one with scars, sweetheart.” Diana practically snarled at Penny. She curled her lip at the young vampire.
”If it weren’t for the coven I wouldn’t have to-” Diana was cut off, but submissive Penny was already effected. She quickly took a few steps to the side, away from for Diana and even Eleanore, flinching as though she expected to be struck. She bumped into a werewolf that had been standing off to the side slightly, and became even more startled. She jumped and turned, blushing darkly and clearly flustered. “O-oh i-i’m so sorry!” She murmured, flinching again and turning her big springy green eyes to the ground submissively.
Eleanore glanced at Penny sympathetically, before looking back at the werewolves once more.
”Now now, there’s no need to be rude.” A male with a deep baritone voice touched the angered werewolf’s head, and she surprisingly tolerated it. Another werewolf seemed completely wooed by the sound of his voice, and leaned against his arm. Eleanore’s lips turned up at the corners, ever so slightly, at the sight of this open display of affection. The kind of affection that hadn’t been directed at her for over a century.
When the male re-directed his attention to Penny (who was still blushing and flustered) and Eleanore, then flashed them a surprisingly friendly smile Ella didn’t hesitate to return it warmly.
”I guess you could say our history with the coven isn’t a very... good one.” Luke told Eleanore, and she could tell he was trying his best to sound a neutral as possible. “I know this means very little to you, but I do apologize on behave of some of my fellow coven members. Many of them are just... bad, really. I wish I could say or do more, but...” She held up her palms helplessly. Damon, Suki, and especially Klaus had a knack for destroying, despite Nico and Eleanore’s best efforts to keep the coven from causing too much damage. But they were all much stronger than the too of them because of the sheer amount of blood they consumed on a daily basis.
”In regards to Roxie, she will be well taken care of. I can assure you of that.” He chuckled, and Eleanore glanced at Penny, a little confused. Elliot was the only one who knew of Roxie’s relationship with Chance and she was still clueless as to how she went about being bitten.
”You honestly think Chance would let anything happen to her? Did you see his reaction when you guys first got here? Not to mention, he hasn’t even left her room once since Jordan let him in. You have nothing to worry about.” That seemed to clear things up for Eleanore. She let out a little chuckle, tucking a strand of blonde hair behind her ear. “Oh, I see. Little Roxie’s been hooking up with a werewolf all this time. We thought she was still sleeping with Elliot. I can’t keep up.” She grinned brightly, chuckling.
After a moment, Ella grew serious once more. “Now, you must know that Klaus isn’t going to give Roxie up this easily. He’s a little... infatuated with her. To put it kindly. At this point, he’s just playing a game of cat and mouse. He’ll probably see how this turns out, then once he gets bored of watching he’ll take her back, obliterating everything in his path.” She paused, looking down for a moment. “That’s if he’s feeling kind. But from what I heard earlier, he wants to find the werewolf that bit her and make him suffer.” She added softly. “But we aren’t going to let that happen. If you’ll let us, Nico, Penny, and I will stay with all of you for now and watch for Klaus. Nico and I know him best, and would be able to slow him down, if not stop him.” she told them confidently, offering them an optimistic smile.
