Unforgiven __ °Avatrice AU°

Chapter 16:

Beatrice pulled into her driveway, parking Vincent's car. She then got greeted by a group of young girls. They handed her a phone. She took it and looked at the screen. The boy she had seen the previous night, the one who attempted to hurt Ava, was just casually on a walk with his dog. The dog didn't seem content with his company, barking at him. The video was coming live from one of the girls currently following him.

-Perfect. Tell her to lead him to the back alley where you guys took out the boys a few days ago., ordered Beatrice, then getting in the van with the girls.

She is handed a mask, putting it on. They weren't far from the park, getting there in only a few minutes. Beatrice knew that what they were going to do was no near legal but it had to be done. They pulled over by the back alley, opening the door. The unconscious boy is dragged in the van. A girl take the dog, putting it on her lap, petting it gently. The dog let her, enjoying the pets. Beatrice looked at the unconscious boy.

-Lets go to the warehouse. Now., ordered Beatrice once again, watching them close the door.

The girls obeyed, making their way to the warehouse quickly, it being out of the center of the city, away from the people and curious eyes. They pulled up to the warehouse that seemed abandoned from outside but was actually property that belonged to Beatrice and her family. Once they parked the van in the garage that was filled with cars from her father's collection, they then took him to a room, tying him up on a chair.

-Now, what, Miss?, asked a girl.

-He can't see me, so I will stay away. You girls will scare him into turning himself in. Today. Use violence if necessary. Nothing visible though. He will walk to the police station and confess to what he did. If he doesn't, he won't walk. Ever again. I will make sure of it. Give me the dog. I will drop him off at his house later., said Beatrice as she walked back to the van.

-Yes, Miss., a girl says as she hands him the dog.

-I'll be watching through the cameras while I'm in the car., informed Beatrice, putting the dog in a car from her dad's collection, making sure that he's comfortable before getting in the car herself. She puts the boy's address in the GPS, setting up her phone to be able to watch the girls and the boy, she then finally drove off.

The drive was quiet. Just her and the dog in her comfort car. An old Chevrolet Camaro Z28. She finally had some time to actually process what was happening. She hated that Ava went through that but she also hated that she cared so much about it. About her. She clenched her jaw, trying to shake those thoughts away but she couldn't help but think back to last night, watching the girl sleep so peacefully, moments before asking her sleepily to stay with her. She would never admit it to anyone, let alone herself, but being needed by Ava made her feel...good. It made her feel wanted. It made her feel warm inside like she hadn't felt in a very long time. Next thing she knew, the dog was sitting on her lap. It was a young Australian shepherd. Probably only a few months old. Beatrice smiled a little, petting its head.

-You didn't like him either, hm?, chuckled Beatrice as the dog close its eyes as Beatrice pet him.

She's always wanted to have a dog but she unfortunately was not allowed to have one. Her parents have always been strict about what she can have and what she can't have. That was until they left her. Now, she simply still follows their rules in hopes that they might come back to her eventually. She checked the GPS, seeing that they were only a few minutes away. The brunette looked down at the dog.

-You're a good doggo. Your master on the other hands, is a real asshole. Don't tell anyone I said that., chuckled Beatrice.

Her eyes then landed on the phone. The boy was finally awake and as she had expected, he was crying his eyes out. A real tough dude. He was begging the girls to not hurt him. She watched as one of the girls simply had to take a knife out for him to start nodding frantically, agreeing to turning himself in. She rolled her eyes at that. Beatrice then pulled over at the house. She wrote a quick note on a piece of paper, getting out of the car. She place the dog in the garden over the picket fence, placing the note right next to the leash.

°Good afternoon,

I found this dog wandering around alone.

This seems to be the address on its collar.

Have a nice day!°

She got back in the car without getting seen. That's when she heard her phone vibrating. She looked at her screen, seeing Camila's name. Beatrice grabbed the phone and picked up immediately.

-Cam, hey., said the girl.

-Hi Bea. Uhm, where are you?, asked Camila with a weird tone.

-In my car. Why? Are you okay?, frowned Beatrice, instantly worried about her friend's wellbeing.

-Oh, no. Yeah. I'm okay. Ava texted in the groupchat, you didn't see?, wondered Camila.

-No, I'm driving. I can't be on my phone and text, Cam. What's going on?, sighed Beatrice.

-She is apologizing about last night. She's saying that she ruined the evening and so on., explained Camila.

-Okay? And you called me about that?, frowned Beatrice.

-Well, partly. The girls thought that it would be a good idea to hang out together tonight to keep Ava company. Do you think her mom would be okay with us going over there?, asked Camila with a slight tone of anxiety.

-I have her number. I will call and ask her. Does that sound good, Cam?, said Beatrice, trying to reassure her friend.

-Yeah, that sounds great. Thank you. I just...I want to be there for her but I am not sure what we could do for her. How can we help her get through this?, sighed Camila who was obviously affected by last night's events.

-All we can do is be there for her. I will call you as soon as I get done talking to her mother. It will be okay, Cam., replied Beatrice with a soft tone.

-Thank you so much, Bea. I appreciate this. Goodbye!, said the younger girl.

-Goodbye, Cam., chuckled Beatrice, hanging up.

She looked at her phone, seeing one of the girls confirming that the boy will be handing himself in and that they will be tracking him, in case he'd try anything.

She sighed and actually started the car now, driving off. She dialed Marisa's phone number, waiting for her to pick up.
