A few days later I returned to Robs’ house with Mel. Chas wanted to come too, but I told him that it was a bad idea since my mom was there. When Mel, Rob, and me walked into the house, we saw that my mom was asleep over paperwork on the counter; Sarah and Vi were asleep on the couch. My sister spoke first, loudly so everyone could hear. “Hey guys! We are home!” Rav jolted awake from the loudness of Mels’ voice. She looked around for a minute, trying to figure out where the noise came from. Then her eyes stopped at the front door where we stood. “Hey babe. We are back. All of us. Safe and sound.” Said my stepfather, walking over to give Rav a hug. She hugged him and looked over his shoulder at us. She was crying. “Hun, what’s wrong?” I heard him whisper. She looked at him and said loud enough for us all to hear. “I’m just happy everyone is okay and back here together.” Both Mel and me rushed over to give our mom a hug. She was still crying tears of joy when Vi and Sarah woke up. Vi dragged his feet while he walked into the kitchen area and gave Mel a noogie. “Welcome back trouble makers.” He said groggily. Rav looked at Mel and me and gasped. She looked back at Rob, “Did it happen?” she asked. Rob looked at us then looked down and gave a weary nod. Rav gasped again. Vi and Sarah looked around us, I’m assuming that they didn’t know what was going on because they just stood there, trying to understand what mom was so upset about. “Vi, Sarah, go to your rooms. Now.” Said my mother. Sarah obeyed while Vi protested. “What! I’m the oldest one here! Why does Mel and Fox get to stay and I have to go to my room? I’m the most responsible! This isn’t fair!” Rob looked at his son. “Vi, I’ll explain everything to you later, but for now, please obey your mother.” Vi turned around and stomped off to his room. Rob turned to his wife and us. “Now, Rav, you know what I am correct?” she nodded. “Then you also must know this. Mel is a werewolf like me, but Fox. Well. Fox is like her dad in more than a few ways. She is a vampire.” Rav looked at us with the same loving eyes. I heard her heart beat faster and faster. “Mum, calm down, your heat is going crazy.” I muttered. Rob laughed. “Oh, and Fox is trying to get used to her new abilities and Mel is having a hard time trying to get used to her keen sense of hearing and smell.” He said as Mel rubbed her nose. Rav almost laughed. She looked a little bit nervous but still the same at the same time. “Wait, mum, you knew that Rob was a werewolf when you married him?” Mel asked.
