And now I’m dealing with it all over again because this guy thinks he has the right to hurt me just because I asked him a question.
“You watch your mouth,” he says.
“Or what?” I ask. I’m not done feeling sassy. Far from it. Brandon has almost calmed down, but he’s holding onto me tightly. He might be a baby, but he understands that something scary is happening. I want to silently tell him that it’s going to be okay, but I don’t know if that’s true.
Everything might not be okay.
But I know something these guys don’t know.
I know that there’s a bear walking around to the front of the cabin. I know that he’s going to sneak up behind these assholes.
And I know he’s going to give them the fight of their lives.
“Are you going to hurt me like you hurt Alexis?” I ask.
“Alexis was an idiot,” Andrew says.
“Excuse me?”
“You heard me,” he rolls his eyes. “All she had to do was say yes.”
“To marrying you?”
“To carrying his child,” Greg says.
“Why did you want her to carry his child?”
“Because he’s a shifter,” Greg tells me, as though the answer is obvious. “Alexis was a perfect human specimen, just as Andrew is a perfect shifter specimen. Together, they could create an incredible child that would be able to take over the police force once I’m gone.”
“Wait a minute...”
I must be missing something because this is even stupider than I imagined.
“You wanted Alexis to breed with Andrew to create super-cop shifter babies?”
“Precisely,” Greg says. “Can you imagine? Close your eyes. Envision it!”
“I’ll pass.”
“You stupid bitch,” he says. He lifts up his hand as though he’s going to slap me again, but Andrew grabs it. He keeps his eyes on me.
“Not just yet,” he says. “Let’s play with her before we kill her.”
So this is it.
This is how I die.
That can’t be right, though.
I’m not ready to die.
I close my eyes for just a second, and then I shake my head. When I open my eyes again, my heart soars because he’s here. He’s finally here. Jace has entered the cabin from the front door and he’s quietly walking up behind Greg. His eyes are steely, and sharp, and I know that he heard every word they said.
More than that, he’s pissed off.
He’s going to make them pay.
Both of them.
