The Hybrid King, The Rise of the Kingdoms

Chapter Five

[P.O.V. Adriana Braxton]

Scarlet pulls up into the police station parking lot. Turning the engine off in front of an old brick building, we both head inside. Standing in front of the receptionist's desk. A woman that looked to be in her late forties look up at us.

"Good afternoon, ladies. What can I do for you?" She asks kindly.

"Sheriff Miles wanted me to come down for my statement." Answering her question.

"Name?"

"Adriana Braxton." She looked at her computer and dialed a number on the phone.

"Hey, Sheriff, an Adriana Braxton, is here for her statement... yes sir, I will." Then, hanging up the phone, she stood up from the desk. "Right this way, please."

Following her down a hallway. With different offices passing by, We come to the end of the hallway. It reminded me of a Sheriff's office. You would see on the t.v. An older man with a grey beard, brown eyes, and a bald head. Sitting there behind the desk. Looked up from his paperwork.

"Miss Braxton," Standing up to shake my hand, "Mrs. Rosston didn't expect you to be here. But very nice to see you." Shaking Scarlet's hand.

"Miss Braxton, is it alright with you? I have one of the Woods brothers coming in as well. Are you okay if we make both statements at the same time?"

"Yes, that fine with me." One of the Woods boys is coming? The office phone rings. Sheriff Miles picks it up.

"Sheriff Miles... That fine send him in, Sherry... Great timing, he is here." Hearing this has my stomach fluttering with butterflies. Hoping that it's the one I've called green eyes.
A knock on the door pulled my attention towards the doorway. 

A man that looks like he's about in his late twenties standing there. He has short black hair, black facial hair circling around his mouth, coming down into a small beard, white skin, and a perfect muscular body. Wearing a tight black T-shirt showing off his eight pack. Dark blue jeans and black tennis shoes. Tattoo sleeves covering both arms. The left-arm has dragon printing, and the right with wolf printing. Gorgeous green emerald eyes just staring at me. Just looking at him has my heart beating hard and fast. The butterflies got a lot worse. Then, pulling his gaze away, shaking the sheriff's hand.

"Mr. Woods, thank you for coming." Says the sheriff.

"Anytime." Green eyes say with a deep voice. Both of them put their gaze on Scar and me.

"This here is Scarlet Rosston." Green eyes shake her hand. "This here is Adriana Braxton." 

Green eyes reaching out his hand to me to shake. Reaching out and shaking hands. The pleasurable sparks were back. 'Breath, Adriana, just breath.' I had to remind myself. Taking his hand away, leaving my skin feeling empty. I could slightly breathe.

"Ladies, this is Zyston Woods." Sheriff Miles got done introducing everyone. 'Holy Shit! Did he say the name I think he did? This is Katrina Woods twin?'

Zyston takes a seat next to me. I could smell his intoxicating, manly scent. Just being near him, I knew this would be a long conversation. With many butterflies fluttering around. After giving my statement, the Sheriff looks at me seriously.

"Miss Braxton, I suggest you shouldn't walk home alone anymore."

"Yes, sir, of course." Once done talking, Scarlet and I walked out of the building. With Zyston trailing right behind us.

"Miss Braxton?" Zyston's voice is making my heart pick up. Turning around, he stood in front of me.  Giving Scarlet the okay, she went to the car. "Can I have a word with you?"
