* The SUV jarred me and Chloe Cross​ as it bounced over the concrete entrance to what could only be considered a mansion of epic proportions. The land around it was perfectly manicured and the grass was greener than any I'd ever seen. The mansion was made of white stone and I prayed there was a damn hospital on premises. Chloe wasn't fairing very well. As soon as the SUV pulled up to the front steps, the doors were opening and we were surrounded by security guards. Morelo was short as he growled out orders. I held tight to Chloe. Morelo wasn't a good guy depsite the situation we were currently in. * Ballast! Get Dr. Pinkerton here now! * I watched as a man moved to do his bidding. I climbed out of the SUV holding Chloe. * Is there somewhere we can take her? * Morelo gestured a woman forward and I followed her inside. I didn't have much time to look around but what I did see was a home of high taste. The room I was led to was small, but clean. I laid Chloe on the small cot. * Get some hot water and clean towels. * I had no idea beyond that what I was doing. Morelo came in then. * The doctor is on his way. * My mind raced with the different things we could do. I stood up. * You're a vampire? * Morelo nodded. * And Chloe, she's your daughter? * He seemed impatient. * What does this have to do with anything? * I rubbed a hand down my face. * Your blood...it can save her. At least help close the wounds. * He shook his head. * It could kill her! Shes a shifter. * I argued back. * But she's your blood. We have to try! At this point, she'll die anyways if we wait much longer. Just open a vein and feed her. * Morelo looked at me and then at Chloe. * You don't do this, you can explain to Vincent that you're to blame for his mate dying. Because you were too pussy to step up and take a chance! * I was being a dick and I didn't care. Morelo growled, his eyes turning a metallic red before me. His fangs elongated and he bit his wrist. I knelt down, bringing Chloe's head up in support as he maneuvered the bleeding wounds against her blue lips. I used my finger to swipe a few drops across her tongue. * Come on, come on, come on! * I demanded. The door banged open but Morelo and I remained focused. * What the fuck are you doing? * Vincent Gaines​ growled out. * Saving Chloe. * I snapped back, watching as the blood slid down her throat. I moved back as Vincent knelt down beside her, taking over holding her as Morelo let his blood drip down her throat. *

  1. * I held my shock in at what was happening before my eyes. Would vampire blood heal her? I prayed to the fates that it did because I'm not sure the world would survive the wrath of Vincent if she didn't survive. The room was full of pacing males, wolves and vampires alike. Vincent continued to hold Chloe, his eyes closed, I could only assume that he was talking to her through their bond. I wished Jordan and I could communicate like that, I'd love to hear her voice right now. The last time I called she hadn't answered. The doctor had made his way into the room and took in the state of the room. * "Don't just stand there you jack ass, examine my daughter! If she dies, so will you." * Now was a fine time for the male to decide that Chloe mattered. He should have reached out to her many years ago, saved her from Ricky then. * The Dr. snapped to attention, sweat already beading up on his forehead and above his lip. He took the washcloths from the basin and rang them out. Looking at Vincent he asked a silent question and Vincent nodded. He removed the towels and moved the bloodied clothes out of the way. Wringing out a washcloth he gently wiped away the blood from her abdomen where the wound was. His breath hitched and we all stopped moving. Vincent and Dr. Pinkerton looked at each other and both +Beck Hadrian​ and Morelo approached them. * "My blood?" * You could tell Morelo was shocked. Beck looked at him and nodded. Looking over their shoulders I was surprised to see her wound was on the verge of healing. It was like you could see it repairing itself. Dr. Pinkerton shook his head slowly. * "I say we wait, give her a little time to heal herself, I can examine her then and see if she has healed inside and out."

  2. * I stood beside Slade and was just as amazed as everyone else that Chloe was healing so fast. I've never been around vampires, or seen what the healing effects of their blood could do. Dr. Pinkerton said to let Chloe rest and he'd make sure she was healing on the inside too. I figured she had to be for the wound to knit together like it was hell, even some of her bruises seemed to fade. We were all collectively holding our breath, waiting and watching Chloe when suddenly her eyes opened wide, like a scared deer. She managed to look up at Vincent and he kissed her forehead. Chloe must have realized she was safe because she relaxed in his arms, fuck..we all finally relaxed a bit.*

  3. * An unfamiliar scent surrounded me, cedar I think? I was in someone's embrace and we were on the move. Muffled shouts reached my ears, I couldn't make out the words, but picked up on the urgency. The pain I felt was excruciating and my attempts to reach out to +Vincent Gaines​​ had failed. Needless to say I was terrified. I knew I was dying and I wasn't ready to leave my mate. I fought the darkness, but couldn't break the surface. My mind was foggy, my limbs heavy. I wanted to yell at who ever kept moving me, It hurt. Finally the movement stopped and I was placed on something soft. There were more shouts I couldn't comprehend and then something covered my mouth. Something warm dripped into my mouth. It was tangy with a strong sweet flavor. Familiar, though I wasn't sure how. It donned on me that it was blood, I knew instantly it wasn't Vincent's. His was strong and spicy, I began to panic as the blood began to bubble in my veins, it heated almost to burning, but then the pain I was feeling before began to subside. * ~"Chloe baby, hang on. You fight for me. I'm sending you all the strength and love I can. Fight, little wolf."~ * Vincent! Suddenly an energy zipped through me, I sucked in a breath and opened my eyes, never feeling anything like that before. I focused on the green eyes of my mate's wolf. Vincent kissed my forehead, and I relaxed. Knowing I was safe and finally out of pain, I let the darkness overtake me. *

* Once +Loretta Blackstone told me what she needed I got up and left. Julian handed me his car keys and +Takahiro Yanahi DPI followed me out of the conference room. I was on the verge of losing it, my baby sister was missing. Taken by a witch and I had no idea why they would even want her. The thought's going through my mind of what might be happening to her were dark. I feared for her. I hurried down the hall and burst through the front door of the police station. I needed fresh air and solitude, I knew I couldn't hold myself together much longer. * "Kimiko, yamero." {Kimiko, stop.} * I stopped, but refused to turn around, tears slid down my face and I was ashamed that I was so weak at this moment. Taka turned me gently and pulled me against his chest, slipping the car keys from my hand. Wrapping his arms around me, he let me cry. * "Watashitachiha kaiyo o mitsukerudeshou, watashi wa yakusoku shimasu." {We'll find Kaiyo, I promise."} * I wrapped my arms around his waist. His gentle voice, embrace and his scent helped to calm me. I looked into my mate's eyes. * Why would they want her, Taka? Do you think that Senichi could be behind this? * My mate seemed to think for a minute. * "You and I know Senichi best. We could guess his next move in any situation and act on it before he even had to say anything. He knows he's gonna have to do something that we would never consider. I'm not saying he is behind this, but I wouldn't be surprised if he is." * I nodded, I knew he was right. Taka kissed me. * "Let's get to the house and get what Miss Blackstone needs." * I slipped into the passenger side of Julian's car and tried to pull myself together as Taka drove us to the house. *

* Raechel Hadrian​​ was finally sleeping as I quietly dressed and left the house. I had to deal with Mia before I dealt with the females of the pack. I was still furious, but everything with Jordan McCormick​​ overshadowed it. I still needed to tell Mikaela Kieschnick​​. Maybe I'd call Damon Kieschnick​​ first. Let him decide the best way to tell her. She'd taken to Jordan right off the bat and I think Jordan had loved Mik too. I kicked the truck engine over and rubbed my hands together. It was cold and the sky was just turning a bright orange in the eastern sky. I didn't relish the tasks ahead. I put the truck in gear and headed into town. We didn't have a large police department. It was a few offices for Slade Michaels and Cole Ross, the other enforcers were directed by them. Slade and I had talked about bringing Vincent Gaines on, but it hadn't gotten any further when we were called to help Bianca. Now that the females had pulled the stunt they did, he may not stick around long enough for me to offer him the position. We had eight holding cells, each one made with reinforced silver. They stayed empty most of the time with the exception of a drunk or two needing to sleep off their drink. I parked in the space designated for me and made my way inside. * Alpha. * Bernice ran the front desk and she greeted me with a smile. * Good morning, Bernice. * She stood up. * You look tired, sir. * She handed me the file on Mia. This was a small town, she knew why I was here. I flipped through the contents. * Its been a long two weeks. * I told her as I made sure everything was in order. * Who's running the morning shift? * I asked, closing the file. * Stretch and Monty. * They were relatively new trainees, but Slade and Cole had trained them well. * Thank you. * I nodded as I slipped past her. Stretch was working the radio system we had in place and I nodded to him as I made my way towards the basement and the holding cells. Monty guarded the door leading down. * Good morning, Alpha. * He opened the door for me. * Thank you, Monty. * He nodded in return. * Good luck with that one, Sir. * I headed down the stairs, the air growing colder. I stepped down the corridor and she was in the first cell to the left. I typed in the code and a small section of the silver bars opened, allowing me to step inside her cell. She sat up when they slammed closed. She smelled like day old booze and her make up was smeared. She stood up and made her way over to me. * Alpha Beck. * Her voice was anything but respectful. * I'd hoped you would come and see me so we could sort this misunderstanding out. * She stepped close enough to run her fingers up the arms of my jacket. She shivered. * Such big muscles. * Her eyes met mine. * Maybe we can work out a deal, hm? * Her fingertips grazed my neck and jaw and for the first time in my life, I wanted to throttle a female. I shoved the file folder between us. * For starters, seducing me will do nothing but get you killed. My mate would have your head. Secondly, we'd both suffer the mating rash. And last, I would rather be dragged behind a truck, over broken glass then continue to be this close to you. * Rage darkened her eyes. * You're a son of a bitch! * Her hand flew up to slap me and I caught her wrist. * I can be. Why don't we find out just how big of a one? * She jerked away from me. * I don't understand why you're so mad at me. Why I'm to blame. I didn't do anything wrong! * She sat on the bed in a huff. * So, you didn't steal drugs from Dr. Tukami? * She was silent. * And you didn't meet Jules and my mate to give them the drugs you didn't steal? * Her eyes snapped fire as they met mine. * Or, you did do all those things, but dont want to admit it. I find it difficult to believe that you did this for the females out of the kindness of your own heart. * I opened the file that I had. * You attempted to seduce the doctor, your boss and was fired for it. I see you lived here during O'Donnells reign of terror. Your mother left with some rogue shifter. You stayed behind with your father. * She moved from the bed. * I know my life's story. I dont need you narrating it. * She tried to snatch the folder from me. I didn't allow it. * And I dont need someone of your calibre in my pack. * That got her attention. * What do you mean? * I shrugged. * Exactly what I just said. I'm banishing you, Mia. * Tears filled her eyes. * Beck...I mean, Alpha, sir....please. * I steeled myself against her pleas. * I don't trust you. In fact, you attempted to seduce me, which means you will stop at nothing to get what you want. I have yet to determine what exactly that is. But its detrimental to my pack. And I will not allow it. * She was sobbing now. * I just wanted Julian. I just wanted him to love me! * I shook my head. * He doesn't feel the same, Mia. The last female like you caused a lot of hurt as well and she almost killed members of my pack. I cannot stand by and let this happen. I will not. You broke trust. And you crossed the line thinking you could seduce me. * She hit her knees. * Alpha, please! Give me another chance! I will stay away from Julian! I'll do anything, ANYTHING to make this right. Just please, don't banish me!! * I shook my head as I gave the signal to be let out. * You'll be escorted out tomorrow morning. You will have exactly two hours to pack and clear out your things. * She was still sobbing. * Where will I go? * I stepped out of the cell. * I don't know, Mia, nor do I care. But you won't be here. And I shouldn't have to tell you that if you attempt to come back to McGregor land, you'll be killed on the spot. * I slammed the bars closed. * I hope that you take this chance and become a better person. Perhaps find a pack that will accept you. * She hit the bars, screaming. * I don't need you or your fucking pack! I didn't act alone! And everyone knows that the only reason you won't banish the others is because of who they mated and your mate is one! * I growled. * You know nothing of what I will do. Don't push me, Mia. It's too easy for me to have you executed. And it'd be supported. * I left her screaming behind me as I made my way back upstairs. I was due to meet with Jules, Meghan and Chloe in an hour. I wanted to be done with this whole thing so I could move on. I had bigger issues to deal with and this was just pissing me off. I left Mias file for Cole to finish up and then headed to my office for round two. *

* I finished checking in at the front desk then sat down next to Caiden Bauer​. I was nervous. I worried about what they would find today. I worried that Gabriel Jericho​ was going after Quinn Cooper​. I just wanted to be tucked inside of Ama Maes bed and breakfast with Caiden. My leg bounced as anxiety pumped through my veins.
