I locked my wheelchair in place as I started the bath. All of them standing in the doorway watching my every move. I poured some bubble bath in and turned to the youngest one. I held out my hand for her to take as she slowly walked over to me.

"What's your name sweet heart?" I asked as I felt the warm water.

"Gracie." She quietly said.

"How old are you Gracie?" I said looking at her.

She was probably a very pretty little girl under all of the dirt and mud.

"I'm 4." She said before hiding her face from me.

"Well Gracie, how would you like to get cleaned up?" I asked with a kind smile and she smiled back with a grin that was missing a front tooth.

She nodded eagerly and I laughed before turning to the others. The other younger girl stood next to Camille with her arms around her waist. I motioned for her to come to me but she shook her head and clung tighter to Camille.

"I won't hurt you sweetheart." I said and Camille gave her a nod and a small push. She finally stood in front of me as I gently took her hands in mine. "What's your name?"

"Sadie." She said almost too quiet for me to hear.

"And how old are you Sadie?" I asked squeezing her hands slightly.

"6." She whispered an I smiled at her.

"6? You're almost as big as Camille!" I said making her giggle shyly. "Sadie would you like to take a bath with Gracie?"

Sadie nodded and I looked to Camille.

"Can you guys wait in there and I'll call you in after I'm done bathing these two?"

"Yes ma'am." Camille said with a nod and I frowned slightly.

"Camille." I called her and she turned around to face me. "Call me Kaylin."

"Okay." She said with a small smile.

Camille was definitely a strong and beautiful girl under all of the dirt and rag like clothes.

I turned to the two girls standing beside me and smiled.

"Now. How about we get you two cleaned up and ready for the day?"

They both nodded and started to strip their clothes. I turned off the water and helped a struggling Gracie take off her shirt.

As I lifted the hem of it I noticed a deep gash in her side. When she lifted her arm she whinced in pain.

"Gracie where did you get this?" I said looking it over. It went from a few inches right of her belly button to just below her rib cage.

"While we were in the woods we were attacked by other werewolves. Camille saved us. She's a lot badder." She said shyly.

I surpressed the growl that was forcing itself from deep in my chest. I just met these kids but I was very protective of them already just like I was for the rest of my pack members.

I slowly helped Gracie into the tub before turning to help Sadie.

Sadie had four long gashes across her dirt covered chest. I forced another growl from coming out. How could anyone hurt young defenseless children?

I helped Sadie into the tub as well and got a hairbrush from one of the counter drawers. I made Gracie turn around before brushing her hair carefully.

'Blake can you go and wake up Miss Maggie and tell her that I am in need of some help.' I asked Blake through our mind link.

'Sure thing.' He replyed and I cut it off.
