Sam sat quietly while looking out the window of her metallic blue Impala called Rachel. As the road slid by, the faded lines streaming out into forever as his gaze fell over the houses they passed. He�d never been a place like this. It was so different from what he was used to, even when he did live in California� It didn�t look anything like this. This small city at the tip of the peninsula seemed hidden from everything around it. Massive trees, all different; palm trees shooting straight up into the heavens, large oaks with branches reaching out in all directions, their roots clawing the earth and causing breaks in the pavement and sidewalks around them. The houses�just the architecture alone was fascinating. Not one house was the same. Everywhere he looked he saw no trace of track housing. It was Spanish, New England and even Native American type housing� It was almost like being in a totally different world.

Sam brought his eyes forward and peeked at Cat through his peripherals. Her long fire red hair was pulled back in a messy bun, a pair of sleek black sunglasses covering her focused gaze as her left arm sat along the edge of the open window, a lit cigarette between the index and middle finger. Her right hand rested casually at the top of the steering wheel, her small fingers curling along with the music going through the speakers. Sam noted the color of her long sleeved shirt, deep navy blue, matching nicely with her dark faded jeans that ended just over the tops of her black sneakers. She obvious went for comfort, and it worked for her. I like that�she�s comfortable with herself.

Before they had left the parking lot, Cat had tried to get him to sit in the back seat because his legs were much longer then hers. Seeing as Sam stood around six feet and four inches, where Cat stood at only five feet and six inches. But nope, he wanted to be right next to her, and in doing so, his knees were nearly pinned against his chest seeing as she adjusted the seat closer to the pedals� Which meant moving the entire front seat forward. It was �67 Impala, what did you expect?

�How long have you lived out here?� Sam asked and continued to look forward, keeping his eyes on the road and his surroundings�and in a small way, trying to stop himself from gawking at her. He couldn�t help it. She was beautiful. And he was trying to ignore the small cramp starting in both legs.

�Most of my life, but I was raised like a rogue or gypsy. Moved from place to place, never staying in a town for too long.� She replied and took a slow drag of her cigarette causing the ember to crackle and glow a bright red. Cat exhaled toward the open window and continued while steering Rachel around a corner, going up hill. �Even though I moved around a lot, I always found myself coming back here� It�s my birth place.�

�Wow�sounds like an interesting life.� Sam chimed thoughtfully and found himself feeling for her. What it must have been like to move around like that�he knew all too well. Can�t make many friends when you�re constantly on the move. �So your parents, they still live out here?�

Cat was quiet for a long time and her right hand gripped the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles showing white just beneath the skin. Taking another drag of her cigarette, she let out a rush of smoke and flicked the ash out the window. Just as she turned another corner, stopping at a small intersection where the light turned red. Tension peaked, causing small electrical currents of anxiety to dance through the air as Sam sat back, feeling stupid for even asking in the first place.

As they waited at the light, the song, �God�s Gonna Cut You Down� by Johnny Cash started pounding rhythmically over the speakers and Sam sensed Cat�s energy ease down, as though the music was soothing her.

�I shouldn�t have asked about your parents�that wasn�t my place.� Sam explained in a soft tone of apology and shifted slightly in his seat, trying to find some kind of comfort.

She let out a sigh as the light turned green and rolled Rachel forward, the engine growling as they drove along another winding street toward the top of a hill. �It�s ok, I just�� Her voice broke in mid sentence, causing her to clear her throat and try again. �I haven�t spoken about them in a very long time. Not to anyone. It�s a little hard for me, I guess.�

Sam nodded and licked his lips nervously, not wanting to push, but she needed to talk about it and he was the type of guy that was willing to help, even if it meant just listening. �It�s ok if you don�t want to talk about it, I�ll understand. But Cat,� his words paused as he finally brought his eyes in her direction. �I�ve been known to be a great listener.�

Cat brought her eyes to him for a moment, as though trying to figure him out and then brought her eyes back to the road, a slight smile hiding at the corner of her lips. �I appreciate it� It�s just a hard subject for me.�

�No one�s judging you Cat. I mean�I understand personally what it�s like to feel pain when someone asks about my parents.� Sam�s voice faded off as the wind danced into the open windows of the car, his mind going back to a place he didn�t want to remember.

Cat sensed the energy shift immediately and gave him a quick glance from the corner of her eyes. She could see it all over his face, radiating through his hard expression, the slight clenching of his jaws causing the muscles along his high cheekbones to twitch. �Mind if I ask�what happened to your parents?� She asked softly and got Rachel to the top of the hill with ease, turned left and started down the street toward a dead end.

�My mom�she died when I was an infant. My Brother Dean, was four years old when it happened. There�was a fire and my Dad had to take us somewhere else. We moved around a lot too, but I eventually got tired of it and left. Mostly to get out on my own. I went through school, managed to get into Stanford and was going to get engaged to my long time girlfriend Jessica� But, things didn�t work out and I ended up on the road with my brother� My Dad just recently�passed away. So Yea� Wow, I can�t believe I just told you all that.� Sam realized while running a hand through his hair in a show of embarrassment as Cat let out a soft chuckle and pulled the car into an old driveway, lined with huge oak trees towering high above their heads.

�It�s ok Sam, sometimes the listener needs someone to listen to them.� She said with a reassuring tone and put the car in park, put on the E-break and turned off the ignition.

�Alright, we here.� Cat exclaimed while opening the heavy door of Rachel and stepped out, closing it behind her. �Hey, make sure to lock your door before you get out.�

Sam did so out of habit, stood and let out a soft moan as feeling returned to his legs. �This is your place?� He asked and closed the passenger side door. �It looks��

�Ancient? Heh, yea she�s all mine.� Cat laughed and motioned for him to follow her along a small set of old steps leading up to a set of large front doors, made of a dark wood with a few lines and cracks here there from age. �Now remember to stay calm and relaxed, you don�t want to give off the wrong impression.�

Sam at first furrowed his brow and remember that she had animals waiting in the huge house for her. �Right, I�ll try my best.� He replied and slipped his hands into his jean pockets, still amazed at how old and beautiful the two story house was.

As soon as she got her keys into the lock, a strange chorus of howls could be heard deep within the house. And if that wasn�t strange enough, as she opened the door, allowing Sam to follow her footsteps, she tilted her had back and let out an eerily perfect wolf howl.

As the sound echoed through the rich dark wood of the house she turned, closed the door and locked it. �Sam, I�m going to need you to trust me, ok?� Cat stated and took his free hand in hers and held it. �Whatever you experience, just remember to trust me and stay calm.�

Swallowing a hard lump of anxiety he nodded and gently squeezed her hand in response. He waited, in his anticipation when Cat began to�sing softly. It wasn�t words, it was just sound and it was the most hauntingly beautiful sound he had ever heard. The very essence of her voice seemed to wrap around his heart, causing him to feel as though he was floating. He felt weightless, as though every bad thing in his life had been taken away and all that was keeping him on earth was her� This beautiful young woman with the voice of an angel�no, a siren.

Everything seemed so calm, almost�surreal to him when a pack of shapes charged forward from somewhere deep within the house. Sleek dark shapes, their large paws thudding against the floor, their claws scraping the wood just beneath them. Sam watched in this calm state of mind as four large wolves bounded up to them and started wining, tails wagging while bowing in front of Cat, who was standing protectively in front of him. His mind started to weave back to the present and for the first time he realized he was standing within a few inches of the largest wolves he had ever seen. They had to be the size of, if not bigger, then Great Danes.

�Ok ok!� Cat laughed while petting the thick fur of what appeared to be the smallest and fluffiest; an off white coat with light brown eyes, who was standing on its hind legs, paws easily touching her shoulders. �Lea down! Come on girl, get down baby.� She cooed softly and gently pried the licking wolf from her chest and tugged on Sam�s hand to come forward. This got the pack�s attention and they all stopped and sat in a semi circle around them, staring at Sam with intelligent eyes.

�The smallest is Lea, I raised her from a cub.� Cat began and started to describe each of her Kids to him from left to right. �That larger gold and black one is Angel, he�s scary looking but really sweet.� She explained as Angel peered at Sam with his golden brown eyes.

�The third in line is Hicks, he�s a little weary of men, doesn�t trust them around me.� Cat said as the pepper brown wolf, just as big as Angel, glared at Sam with his blue green eyes as though he was Cat�s father and Sam her date.

�The fourth one is Ripley, she�s like the mother of the group and actually gets along with Lea. She�ll probably check you out first before she finally decides to be friendly�and�where is he?� She thought aloud, her voice trailing off as Sam looked Ripley in the eyes. Big dark brown eyes stared back at him through dark brown fur, slightly fluffier then Angel and Hicks, but not a fuzz ball like Lea. She was about as big as the other two, maybe just a little leaner. Lea must have been the runt.

Cat looked around and sighed, slightly annoyed. �Riddick! Stop being a shit and get your ass out here!� Her voice danced through the air when Sam was slightly caught off guard by one of the biggest wolves he had ever seen. The wolf had to be all muscle with it�s large chest, thick shoulders and powerful legs and huge paws�

Riddick trotted over, somehow managing to remain perfectly silent as he made his way casually across the room toward Cat. It wasn�t just his size that got to Sam, but the way his ice blue eyes seemed to almost glow against the pitch black color of his fur.

�Where�ve you been, huh big guy?� Her tone melted into a sweet and loving voice as the huge animal pushed passed the others, almost arrogantly, causing a growl from Lea. From shoulders to paw he nearly stood at Cat�s waist.

It just isn�t possible! Wolves are never supposed to be this big! Sam�s mind spat softly as Riddick craned his large head suddenly and Sam nearly swore the black wolf narrowed his eyes at him.

�This is Riddick, and yes�he�s enormous. He�s the one people need to worry about.� She explained as though it was a normal thing and kissed the bridge of Riddick�s muzzle, causing a deep rumbling growl to flow from his chest. Cat stood up straight and smiled at Sam, who was obviously shell shocked at what he was seeing. �He won�t attack you, he�ll just growl and watch you. He doesn�t like strangers. Period. Especially the male variety. He almost acts like a possessive boyfriend.�

�Uhm�wow.� Was all Sam could utter as Riddick walked off a ways, turned and sat down on his haunches. Staring right at Sam�and still just as menacing. �These�aren�t normal wolves, are they?�

Cat shook her head, �nope. They�re incredibly rare�and that�s why they�re here with me. I hope you�re not too freaked out.�

Sam thought about it for a moment and smiled, shaking his head. �Naw, just surprised. They�re all very beautiful animals. I just hope they like me��

A soft chuckle danced form her lips. �Kids, this is Sam Winchester. He�s going to stay with us for a little while, ok? So try and make him feel welcomed.� She paused and looked over at Riddick, �that means you too Riddick. No funny stuff, got it?� The big Black wolf made a grumbling sound somewhere in his chest as though he understood her perfectly.

Sam furrowed his brow, �how did you know my last name was Winchester?� He asked, feeling slightly worried for a moment.

A crease slithered between her high arched brows. �You told me back at the park.�

�No�I didn�t actually.� Sam replied and watched her eyes carefully.

�Huh�weird. I swear I thought you said that.� Cat replied thoughtfully and then gave him a bright smile and shrugged. �Who knows, at least I got it right the first time, right?�

Sam was a little unnerved by that but kept it to himself and forced a smile. �Right��

Cat knew she slipped and changed the subject quickly before he could ask any more unneeded questions. �Well, welcome to my home. It�s not plush or expensive, but it�s safe.� She said with a cheerful voice and felt the nervous tension around Sam dissipate. �Hey, would you like something to drink other then that luke warm coffee?�

�Sure, that sounds good.� Sam replied, finding it hard to resist those hazel red, cat like eyes sparkling at him with a playful innocence. �What do you have?�

�The essentials. Come on I�ll show you.� Cat announced with a sweet smile, still holding his hand, and led him toward the kitchen.

Inwardly, she told herself repeatedly to watch what she said around him. Again and again her instincts growled at her to be on guard�and that if she wasn�t careful, her wolf Riddick would gladly take care of him. And that was the last thing she wanted� She liked Sam, he was intelligent, sweet, understanding and an all around good guy. He was also really easy on the eyes and she had a fleeting thought about how his body looked under all those clothes�

Guard intact, she�d continue to play the sweet paranormal investigator. Hopefully he wouldn�t ask too many questions�for his sake.
