Dillion Scott || Win Win

"You know nothing"

"You're right, if I had to rely on you to tell me things I would know fuck all cause you don't talk to me. Apart from discretely telling me to fuck off, you say nothing. But Jack, the kid who has been abused his whole fucking life and shouldn't trust me at all, quite happily tells me everything." I snapped, my eyes narrowing. "Which is enough to know that if Ryker catches wind that you are involved, he will kill them  or use them to get to the pack." I stated.

I doubt Ryker would go through such efforts for the past decade just to be an annoying little brother. I'm going to take a guess that Ryker is unaware that Jack is still alive, which means he'll be back to put the blame on Elias for their younger brother's death which in doing so would reveal that their parents are still alive. This give Ryker the upper hand cause he knows Elias would do almost anything for his parents, it would be a bargaining chip to what I assume is a way to get control of the pack.

"What are you going to do then? Get your parents and lose everything with out a trusted guarantee that Ryker wont kill them anyway." I said hoping that its sinking in that him being there is going to do more harm then good. Ryker is to deep in Elias's head for the rescue to go smoothly, there are to many feelings and emotions running hot for Elias to do what he has to do properly. "What ever plan you have, you have to take yourself and most of your men out of it. You have to let someone else take the reins on this." I said, trying to subtly blink away the dizzy spell, my vision blurring slightly.

"I'm trying to help you here, cause as much as you ignore and push me away. We are mates and I care about you. Both you and Jack deserve a chance at happiness, your parents deserve freedom and happiness. Let me be the person who does that for you. Let me help you" I pleaded, hoping that something was seeping through Elias's thick skull, for him to take a step back for once and let people help him, to let people - me - in.

"Ryker doesn't know me. No one apart from a select few know that we are mates. With the help of my pack and the Flanders, we can get your parents out and take down Ryker. Ryker knows nothing that Jack is still alive or that we know about your parents let alone that we figured out where he is hiding." I said, with Josiah leading the operation it will be an easy grab and go. the only hard part will be getting Alice and Geoffrey to trust us in a short period of time.

"It's a win win, you get your parents back either way and if die then at least don't have to worry about me nagging you for the rest of your life" I added with a sarcastic smile. At this point I have somewhat accepted the fact that there wont be a romantic relationship between us, mostly cause of a lack of motivation from my end, I'm not walking down this road by myself when it is meant to be a two way street. Those things usually end in a dead end anyway so I figured I'd same myself the time, effort and disappointment.

My words must of hit something as they reached Elias as he flinched slightly at them, but kept his mouth closed, his attention on his fallen chair. Picking up the office chair, studying it for a moment  before sitting back down. "I've said this before, I don't hate you. You wouldn't be here let alone alive if I did." Elias stated.

I raised an eyebrow not practically sure whether that statement was suppose to make me feel better about our relationship. Apparently I've only lived so long due Elias being so generous in not killing me when he had the chance, or letting me die in the few times that I was knocking at death's door. Which I guess is somewhat true as I would not be here with out him, but still I don't necessarily see how that's suppose to comfort me as Elias hates Ryker and the guy is still alive after ten plus years of tormenting him.

"Thank you I think" I muttered in response, standing up carefully and slowly as it takes very little to get me dizzy these days, apparently being around each other doesn't cut it anymore, though every interaction we have had so far has been arguing which defiantly doesn't help my case. Elias watched my slowed actions, raising an eyebrow questioningly. "Your generosity with keeping me alive, stops short at letting me live with out consequences" I said with an eyeroll my vision blurring with the action.
