I smile but it’s forced. “I’ll give you what you deserve, Jess.”
His eyes light up when I say his name but they’re still bouncing around the room.
“There’s a shop pretty close to the bar that will sell you anything you want.”
Fucking hell. There’s a shop right by us that’s selling this stuff?
We’re lucky we haven’t run into it even more.
“What’s the name?” Aksel demands.
Jess is hyper focused on my mouth. He won’t look away from where he knows my venom is.
It’s disgusting.
Blaze slaps him across the face with only a small percentage of his strength. Otherwise, I think he would have taken the human’s head right off.
It takes two more strikes before Jess pays him any attention.
“I’m not sure he’s sane enough to be affected by pain,” Felix says.
“I need to know the name of the shop before I can give you what I promised,” I say softly.
Jess looks around the room with jerky shakes. “I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?” Griffyn asks incredulously.
“Liar. Hit him again, Blaze,” Aksel demands.
Blaze follows his instruction immediately, punching the human in the stomach.
A series of blows does nothing and he doesn’t give us the name.
I step back closer to Aksel. “I don’t think he knows. I’m surprised we didn’t notice him in the bar if he was acting like this.”
“He was probably taking hits to keep himself normal,” Aksel says. “I agree. He doesn’t know. His emotions are all over the place. There’s only one more thing to do.”
Aksel steps forward and starts looking at Jess’ arms and feet.
“What are you doing?” Felix asks.
“We need to find the wev item. What is it?” Aksel asks.
Jess’ eyebrows scrunch. “What?”
“What stops vampires from compelling you?” Griffyn asks.
Again, Jess doesn’t realize the situation he’s in. He laughs manically. “Oh, they told me that was a must if I was trying to get it from the source.”
He points to his ear which has a small stud pierced into it.
Aksel rips it out making Jess scream.
“Compel him.”
I step forward and say, “Jess, what is the name of the shop?”
It’s clear this time the compulsion is working.
