Chapter 12: Unknown

“I’d said it before and meant it: Alive or undead, the love of my life was a badass.” -Richelle Mead

Unknown POV 

Hopefully that bullet I put into Ms. Wilson’s lower back will remind her of just what I’m capable of. She needed to be reminded why I am her boss, and that she doesn’t, and shouldn’t go against my orders.

Or else the next time that .22 lead hollow point bullet will be going through her skull instead, and I won’t be as generous as to using my .22, I’ll make sure to use my personal favorite, the .357 magnum.

I will get exactly what I want, and that is for the only decedent, and remaining member of the James family to die, to go extinct.

 You better watch your back Grace, I'm coming after you next.

Grace's POV

“I have a bad feeling about this Caydon” I mutter as we get closer to the hospital.

“What do you mean?” he asks as we get off the highway. We are about 5 minutes from the hospital, and the closer we get, the more the deep abyss in my stomach seems to grow. The last time I was here was when my parents died.

“Don’t commit me to the loony ward, but I feel like my parents, or some force is trying to warn me, or tell me that this has to do with their death. Its kind a freaking me out here.” I say folding my arms over my stomach and laying my head onto the head rest so I’m looking up at the roof of the hummer, taking deep breathing trying to get the nauseating feeling out of my stomach.

I feel the car come to a complete stop and the engine turn off.

“Grace are you okay?” I hear him ask, worry and concern lining his voice.

I open my eyes and look at him, he looks like a burry blob from the tears in my eyes. I bit the inside of my lower lip trying to not cry and just smile, even though is probably looks like a grimace. “I’ll be fine, let’s just go inside.” I say wiping my eyes and pulling the lever to open the door.

As I step out of the hummer, the cold night breeze hits my face. I try to rid my face of any sign that I was crying. I hear the door close on the other side, so I walk around the back of the hummer and wait for Caydon.

He comes over, and as I start to walk towage the entrance to the hospital, a big hand grabs my arms and pulls me, spinning me around so I hit a wall of muscle.

“I know you to well, so you cannot lie to me. I know that you’re hurting and missing your parents. Maybe it’s them trying to tell you something, I just want you to know that I’ll do whatever I can do to keep you safe, okay?” he says putting his finger under my chin making me look up into his eyes, which hold so much sincerity that in know he’s not kidding when he says he’ll do whatever it takes, knowing him he’d take a bullet.

“You’ve really got me in between a rock and a hard place, no pun intended” I say trying to lighten the mood.

He just rolls his eyes, and let’s go of my face, grabbing my hand. “let’s get going princesa”

Caydon’s POV

“You’ve really got me in between a rock and a hard place, no pun intended” Grace says with a huge smile on her face, I just roll my eyes, and grab her hand.

“Let’s get going princesa” I say as we walk to the entrance of the hospital.
