Damn! Dagger thought. He was now stuck in room with his three sisters and Zachariah. Having to come home was hard enough. Know that he was the heir to some multi-million dollar company was something that scared the living shit out of him.
"Dagger!" Jasmine shouted. Dagger turned to his sister. "How are you?"
"What? Oh um fine I guess..."
"Dont how are 'you' how are you feeling!" Kelly said. Dagher looked at Kelly. The girls did this a lot. They usually knew what the other ment; so at times they worded things different to help other people understand.
"Um," Dagger rubbed his kneck. "Pissed." The girls shared a glance.
"About?" Zachariah asked. Dagger glanced at him. Zachariah was standing against the door, his arms crossed.
"My dad... He anounced that I am now the heir to the Cain company. But I don't want to be! He's just throwing a burden onto my shoulders, and its not like he cares about me!" Dagger snarled. It hurt to talk about this. But every now and then the girls would hudle around and listen to what Dagger had to say. The first time they did this, Dagger told the girls about wanting to kill himself. They had just made sad smiles and told him that they knew. And that they didn't want him to leave, that if he ever needed anything to talk to them. After all they were kin, even if they had different mothers. This time the girls looked surprised.
"He," Jasmine gasped, "wants you to be heir?" Dagger nodded.
"What a..."
"Jerk?" Amma put in before Jasmine could curse. Jasmine nodded. Dagger smiled and bowed his head. It must be nice to have siblings like that. He woildnt know; every time the girls tryed to get close to Dagger. Their fatjer stepped in and made the situation all about the girls. It was painful knowing that their father didn't care about him, very painful.
"Well." The Cains turned to look at Zachariah. "I say go along with him. Than when you are the big bad boss, leave."

They were all staring at him. Surprise written on their expressions. The light in the room shifted, reflecting off of Dagger's eyes. They glowed... Like werewolf glowed. Well at least Zachariah knew what Dagger was. Definitely not a vampire, the tanned skin wrote that theory off when they first met.
"Thats a great idea!" Said Jasmine.
"If Dag can survive long enough to become boss," Kelly cut in. Zachariah looked at Dagger. The other boy looked uncomfortable, his head was bowed. But just the start of a smile played at Daggers lips. He was smiling? About what? Oh well, its not like Zachariah was ever going to find out. They all went silent. Zachariah could just hear the conversation between Mr and Mrs.Cain. They were discussing what to do with Dagger. When the conversation began to get heated; the couple began to yell.
"We'll go stop them," Jasmine sighed. Zachariah moved away from the door.
"Watch him." Kelly gestured at Dagger. Zachariah gulped, his adoms apple bobbing. The same feeling that Zachariah had felt at the bar returned. Dagger was different and Zachariah could feel it. The boys presence was over whelming. Like an alpha wolf in a pack full of omega's. Zachariah walled over to the bed amd sat next to Dagger. Dagger was facing away from him, a little color on his cheeks.
"You." Dagger gulped, "you don't have to stay here. I understand if you leave." Zachariah resisted the urge to grab Daggers chin and redirect him to face towards Zachariah.
"Why would I not want to stay" Zachariah asked. Dagger turned to face Zachariah. He went to open his mouth, but let out a gasp. Dagger doubled over, grabbing at his chest. Zachariah kneeled down next to him; panic taking a hold.
"Help!" Zachariah screamed. Within minutes Henry came bounding into the room, followed by Rick. Henry ran over and kneeled next to Dagger and Zachariah on the floor.
"What happened?" Henry asked. Dagger let out a muffled scream, as he bit his lip. Sharp canines began to grow and Dagger's eyes began to glow a steady green.
"He's a werewolf!" Henry said, turning to Rick. Rick gapped at Dagger, the old man's mouth hanging open. Henry turned to Zachariah.
"We have to get him out of here, amd away from other people." Zachariah nodded and took hold of one of Dagger's arms. With the help of Henry, they got Dagger outside. Zachariah's grip broke and Dagger fell to the ground. The three glanced up. A bright red moon, glowed in the sky. Zachariah glanced behind him. Rick stood, glaring in the door way. This boy was his son, he really didn't care about Dagger. Rick really did hate his son, despised even. Zachariah shook his head. Taking hold of Dagger's arm again, him and Henry led Dagger to their car. Henry help Zachariah lay Dagger in the back, and they were off.
