Unsafe. That's one word we use at least three times a day when you have a family member a part of the Guardian Force.

Unsafe. That's how we define the world until the Ultime is caught and killed, we believe that our lives are in dangerous. Which they are.

Unsafe. Last time we let the Ultima roam free, he killed many innocent people and caused destruction on the town. This was 50 years ago, but we hold strong grudges.

Unsafe. Ever since, we have been terrified of werewolves. That's what we grew up on. Our parents telling us stories about how werewolves were evil creatures we should stay away from.

U nsafe.

Last moment.

Terrifying.

I nstant killers.

M ake sure you stay away.

A fter all, that's how grandpa died.

Those are the main sentences I grew on. My father's goal is to make sure me and my mother lives great lives uptown with the other Guardian Force families.

Unsafe. The one word that matters to us. Because the Guardian Force exists to make sure that we are safe. Their families are safe. The town is safe. The whole world can be safe.

Unsafe. That's how my family defines the Ultima Werewolf. That's how my family defines the whole werewolf economy. Unsafe. But do I care?

'Course not.

"Well, Katelyn, it's not like the plan will fail." I hold the phone closer to my ear as I flop onto my bed.

"Raiding Area 51 has danger written all over it." She responds.

"Um Katelyn you will never know if you don't try."

"... Is that my dad calling me? I think it's my dad. Gotta go love you bye." She hung up on me. We both know that Jeffery was calling me.

I laugh and put my phone to the side. Not a while later, I hear tapping at the window. Who would that be at 10 pm on a Saturday? I get off of the bed and slowly walk over to the window.

As I look out, Aaron pops out and scares the crap out of me! "You dipshit!" I yell and he laughs. I open the window and he crawls through. "My dad's home! You can't be here!" I whisper.

"I don't care." He cups my cheeks in his hands and pecks my lips, "I missed you so much."

"Don't get flirty with me, you just came on the worst night of the week!"

"Aphmau, what was that?" A hear a voice come from downstairs.

I cover Aaron's mouth, "I was on the phone with Garroth about..." I try to think of something to say, "Zianna?"

"Oh Zianna!" I hear my mom's footsteps coming from outside.

I take Aaron over to my closet, push him in, and close the doors before my mom storms in. "What's the 411?"

"Did I say Zianna?" I laugh, "I meant.... lasagna?" I shrug it off. My dad comes running in.

"Don't get your mother about Zianna! You know how she gets!" He exclaims, "And until that Ultima is caught, I don't want you on the phone this late."

"What's he going to do? Hack my phone?" I ask, rolling my eyes. "You've been telling me the same thing for six years. I understand, dad."

"Alright, remember what I tell you. Werewolves-"

"Are unsafe creatures we should stay away from at all costs."

He kisses my forehead, "I'm calling it a night." He yawns.

Following after, my mom yawns. "Good night, mi hija." She says.

"Night, mom." They start walking towards the door and shut it as soon as they leave. Aaron emerges from the closet and hugs me again.

"You almost got me caught." I whisper, hugging him back.

"Keyword: Almost." He nuzzles his head in my hair.

"What's going on with you? What's with all of this affection?"

"Just been thinking about you," He says, "How much trouble I could get you into, how bad I want you to be safe, how much I want to be with you."

"Awwwwww Aaron," I coo as he lifts his head off of me and grabs my hands, "You already have me. We can work this out together."

"Your father wants to KILL me, Aph." He mentions, "How will I ever gain his trust?"

"I love you," I confess. His ears shoot up and his tail wags, "I do. It'll be one of the toughest tasks on world, but I'm willing to go through the pain, tears, and possible unnecessary things said just to be with you."

He tackles me onto my bed and crawls on top of me. He rest his head on my chest and wraps his tail around my waist. "I love you too." He whispers back.

I giggles and start to play with his ears. "So fluffy!" I coo and he laughs. I start scratching them and he begins to pant.

He stops and blushing a bright red, making me laugh. "You're adorable." I laugh.

"Not as adorable as you." You have no idea how red I just got. He hugs me tighter and holds back the biggest smile.

"What's on your mind?" I stop scratching his ears.

"You."

"Besides that."

"Us."

I look back at the clock and I realized that he's spent about an hour here. "I think it's time for you to go."

"But I don't wanna." He whines and I push him off of me.

"Come on, I have an early morning tomorrow." I walk over to my window and open it. He sighs and walks over to me.

"When can I see you again?" He asks.

"I'll try to sneak out tomorrow or something." I respond as he starts climbing out the window. "Cya soon."

He comes back up for a minute, "I forgot something." He says.

"You didn't bring anything with you. What did you forget?" He cups my cheeks and pulls me in for a quick soft kiss. He pulls away smiling,

"That." He goes back out the window. "Talk to you later, Aph." He climbs down the ladder. I wave down at him and close the window shut.

"That idiot." I laugh but I have the biggest smile in existence on my face.
