New Blood

"They are human they use so little of their brain I don't know how they can even walk straight"

Caden and Andrea cackled away at me as we made it to the house.

"You really do hate humans don't you?"

I raised my eyebrow at her and pointed to the mini city she has going on here

"You don't?"

She shrugged

"Bad eggs and good eggs with every breed. Il not hold it against the good ones though"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to go out of my way and kill innocent people. When this is over I plan on letting them live peacefully but anyone that had a part in this will die"

She grinned linking her arm with mine

"Your so murderous I love it"

She cackles away as she pulls me into her study. Caden kisses me on the cheek and sits down on a sofa nearby. She pushes the drink cart over beside us and pulls out 3 glasses and fills them to the top with whiskey. I laugh as she hands me one

"What? I don't ever see the point in putting a tiny bit of whiskey in a glass. At the end of the day I'm the one who has to get up and refill. I'm just not about that shit. Take the drink and stop judging me"

Caden falls back and laughs at her. I sit beside him and take a few gulps enjoying the sting as it hits my throat and warms me from the inside out.

"Well ladies, that was a day and a half. Where is your beta Steve? He was blue when Baylee told him to get over killing someone"

She rolls her eyes at him.

"He's a chicken shit. And not my beta officially yet after my other beta found his mate and left me to become alpha in frickin Canada of all places. He needs to learn that I'm not going to let people get off with anything. They cross the line, they die. if he doesn't learn that soon then he's no good for the position"

Just then the front door opened and I heard footsteps coming down the hall. Andrea smiled

"Talk of the devil. Steve, how are you?"

He walked into the room and grabbed the whiskey

"I've been better. That was a bloodbath"

We just nodded, saying nothing until he talked again.

"I don't even feel bad anymore. I watched one of those sick bastards shoot an elderly woman in the head before I got to him. They deserve everything that's coming to them"

I closed my eyes as tears threatened to escape. They might not be my people directly but they were my people and it hurt to know we couldn't save them all

"How many did we lose?"

Andreas' voice was low. Full of emotion. Steve got up and sat beside her and comforted her.

"11 dead and 35 kidnapped. That number would have been a lot higher if Baylee didn't stop that second truck. But don't worry, our trackers are hot on their tail. We will get them back"

She rested her head on his chest and took another drink. After a few more moments of silence I finished my drink and stood up.

"We better go. Keep us updated on the kidnapped please. We need to get back, who knows when they will attack again"

I pulled Andrea into a hug. She hugged back

"Thank you both for the help. If it wasn't for you both this would have gone a whole other way. So thank you"
