That Crazy Witchcraft

Carlsberg and Brambles

Even after a drink, Bowie was still seething. He didn't like Greyson from the moment he met him. But now he hated the bastard.

'How dare that little pup insult our mate!' Bowie's wolf Kaiser growled. 'We need to beat him senseless. Bite off an ear...SOMETHING!'

'I will not do anything so disrespectful to these people. He is merely a thorn and if he gets out of hand, I will deal with him.' Bowie warned.

'You better. Thea and Elaia do not deserve that.'

'You already know her wolf?' He asked impressed.

His wolf gave a chuckle. 'Of course. We spent most of last night mind-linking and talking. I am in love with her already. She is incredible.'

'I am sure she is.'

"Talking about me?" Thea smiled sweetly as she sat next to Bowie at one of the larger tables in the pub. Paul and Alpha Hanson were locked in a darts match and everyone was watching and cheering them on. Tristan and Amiah were sucking the face off each other in the corner so Thea and Bowie were alone and could talk.

"How did you -" he gasped but she smiled

"Your eyes are glazed over so I assume you were venting to your wolf about what happened?" She said as she took a sip of her cocktail. Bowie had a strong urge to lean over and kiss her to taste the sweet juice on her lips.
But he settled for his hand on the small of her back.

"Yeah...we were arguing about what to do with that fucking dick." He took a long drink.

"Greyson is a dick, but he is harmless," she assured him, placing a hand on his knee. "He is all bark and no bite."

"Are you sure?" Bowie asked and she looked perplexed for a minute. She honestly wasn't sure. He had always been cold towards her but he usually just ignored her. But ever since her birthday, he seems to be everywhere. She couldn't escape him. And now he felt that he had some sort of claim over her. It was ridiculous.

"I wouldn't trust him as such but I don't think he would ever physically hurt me if that's what you mean?" She shrugged.

"He fucking wouldn't need to!" Bowie almost growled.

"Let's talk about something else. Did your meetings go OK?"

"Oh, he was a ball bag in there too. He spends way too much money and does not have any concept of finances or how to make the pack money. He started off by telling us about the car he bought a few months back and then showed us the new one that he is after. When I told him that it was well over £250,000 he laughed and said being an Alpha had its perks."

"He wants to spend WHAT on a car?" Thea gasped.

"He also has the best clothes. His monthly shopping bill is ridiculous. At this rate, the pack are treading water. Just getting by. But with him at the wheel, it will not last 6 months before you have to file for bankruptcy." Bowie had not been impressed with the books he had seen and it was clear that Alpha Hanson and Paul had no idea what was happening.

"I can't believe it! How did things get this bad?" Thea asked completely perplexed and thinking of about a hundred questions she wanted to know about.

"Because your financial guy is useless. He knew that Greyson had private accounts and kept them from his own Alpha. The pack do actually make quite a bit of money and if he wasn't so...flamboyant everything would be fine. But if things don't get better....well your father agreed to give them a loan if needs be -"

"He did WHAT?" She shouted.

Bowie jumped and shushed her. "Don't worry I told him he was not allowed. Your father is a very smart businessman. He is going to work with Hanson and come up with a new system. We will work out all the details tomorrow. We didn't get it all covered today."
