Story: Ellie 2
He swallowed loudly. “It would be my job if you did. I need this job.”
Yeah, fair. I promised him again and tucked my phone away before he gave a nod to the officer holding Kenneth.
The vampire gave me a bored look, but my wolf sensed more than most. The man was curious—too curiouswhy I was there.
I let out all my power, everything extra over other Alphas and whatever made me different being an actual combination of two types of wolves. People shivered or stepped away.
Yeah, it was a lot, but it was focused on one fucker.
“What do you see in my eyes, Kenneth Reed?” I asked him.
He swallowed loudly. “My death.”
“You think you could take me?” I asked with a smirk, not making him say it. He ground his jaw which was enough. “You know my family?”
“I’ve been made aware,” he sneered.
“Think you could take them on because no matter the discord with my siblings, my parents do love me.”
“Your mother made that clear when she threatened my internal organs and eternal soul if I came near either of you again,” he snapped.
I didn’t hide my shock. Well, Mum really did like Ellie as much as I sensed because that was a threat she normally saved only for family and she knew Kenneth Reed wasn’t a threat for me. “So you understand that it’s more than the local police or federal government you’d have to deal with if you go near her again.”
He bared his teeth at me. “I have no daughter. I didn’t need the threats. That bitch would put her own family in jail and she’s dead to me.”
It wasreallyhard not to deck this git.
He seemed to understand that his words were affecting me, smirking. “My only regret was not drugging her so she was forced to mate that abusive one. I hadn’t counted on her growing a spine and—”
“You’re disgusting,” I growled.
“Actually, I regret not smothering both my worthless daughters,” he continued. “I should have killed them when I’d had the chance and forced that traitorous bitch I mated to give me real children who are obedient.”
I had to take a step back when my wolf lurched to take a swing at him.
He snorted. “This last one was so much better than she deserved and instead she’s fucking a dog. None of you are worth shit.” He winked at me. “Good luck having anything real with her when she’s so fucked up after all she’s—”
“You knownothingabout your daughter,” I chuckled darkly, my wolf chilling. “You haven’t even spoken to her in fifty years.”
He rolled his eyes. “She’s the whore of ASH’s founder and got what she has just like any other bitch does by—”
I burst out laughing. So he was clueless that his daughter was the founder. Oh, this git was pathetic. “I get why you lost your coven. Seriously, you’re so fucking stupid it’s hard not to pity you, but you’re too big a git. You’redrippingwith jealousy that your daughter is better and just spewing shit. We both know it.”
I might have said more, but a portal opened at the designated spot and that meant we were out of time. The officer came back to reclaim Kenneth to hand over.
He frowned at that. “Take the blasted cuffs off me already. The portal’s open, you dense child.”
The officer completely ignored it and was focused on the people who came through the portal… And then smirked.
Kenneth caught it and followed his gaze, frowning when he saw official uniforms and more people than either of us expected. “What is this shit? You were sending me back to Europe. That was the deal.”
“Yes, we are, Mr. Reed,” the officer whose number I got said with a chuckle. He winked at the vampire still in handcuffs. “Wealso did our jobs and alerted the people we should.” He gestured to the people still coming out of the portal. “Apparently, there are several parties in Europe who have wanted to have a chat with you as well. We’re handing you over to them.”
“That wasn’t the deal!” Kenneth blasted.
“Actually, it was, Mr. Reed,” the man who came through the portal first and was probably in charge said. He held up some papers. “You signed it. It says right here in black and white that you will be handed over through proper channels.We arethe proper channels. And when everything was filed and your name hit the system, others were alerted.”
A woman behind him snorted. “So many colorful warnings it was like a rainbow of agencies and areas coming together for rare fun.” She looked at the officer holding him. “Thank you for your service and well done to your department. I understand his punishment here is just not to come back, and I can promise you that he won’t.”
