Harry hadn't gotten in until near five in the morning, his body covered in blood that wasn't his, his whole being aching in a way he couldn't describe. He had been eerily silent when he'd found Orla and Seamus, the bravado he had put on when he left Skylar inside the Manor only lasting him so long until he saw them. There was just so much blood, so

Harry cocked his head to the side as he pulled his sunglasses from his face, folding the arms and letting them hang in the collar of his sweater. The weather had warmed since the night before, and his body was still tense from all the magic he'd used the night before, trying to shuffle everyone around him while moving about the grounds. But still, he knew he looked a hell of a lot better than Sebastian did.
"You know, I could have a quip about my night and how I spent it carrying the bloodied bodies of two of my friends around your property but right now my only concern is what I left behind in your shed-"

He should have. He had wanted to. From the moment he saw its fangs glaring in the moonlight and Orla's body fall to the ground in a lump, he had wanted to kill it. But he knew that if he wanted answers, he needed it alive.
And he needed Sebastian to help.
There was a reason they were trolling his grounds and he intended to find out. Not to mention he had a major medal to win back after finally being allowed to work. If he could crack whatever was happening, maybe the hushed whispers and strange looks would stop from the men he was once respected by.
"But this is just so much more fun," he said, stepping back as Sebastian slowly made his way through the front door. "Besides, it wouldn't have allowed me this lovely opportunity to come and see how you're doing-"
