UNDERWORLD WATCH

Chapter Fourteen

Chapter Fourteen.

Noah had been whisked into an interrogation room as soon as they had arrived at the headquarters. He'd been separated from Ashton and Cammy long ago and wasn't sure if they were still in the building.

He stared pointedly at the two way mirror knowing the two Agents were probably on the other side. "Hurry up. I have better things to do." 

There was no reply but a few minutes later the door to the room slid open. The two men from before came in. Moving silently across the room till they were seated across from him.

"I'm Cyril Donnelly," the blonde one introduced, "and this is Keith Shue, my partner."

Noah nodded. "So, why am I here?"

"Why is there a bounty on your head Mr. Black?" Shue asked, how is that even pronounced.

Noah shrugged, "I pissed a few people...okay, a lot of people."

"What do you know about the wolf's and little girl's disappearance,"

"Ashton approached me to help him find his niece," he said simply.

"And you just accepted to help," Donnelly asked, and his attention moved to the blonde. He chuckled lightly, "No, actually I threatened to kill him. It was a shitty night."

The other man nodded. "How did you know where to find the kids?" he could hear the suspicion in his voice. "I didn't. We visited all the feeding rooms in the area."

"We?" Shue asked, "You and the bloke."

"It started with the two of us but then we got help from the werewolves, which made it a lot simpler," he knew it was hard to believe. He could see it on their faces.

"You want to tell me, werewolves would work with you. Your species don't get along."

"That's completely true. But we have a common goal. The Alpha's brother had been taken, so we combined forces. That doesn't mean we are besties," he said waving his hands around.

Noah had to get out of that place. Right then he was a seating duck. If any of his enemies knew he was here, he'd be an easy kill. He had no weapons, because they weren't allowed. He doesn't know his way around the damn place, which makes his chances worse.

"When can I leave?"

"In just a few minutes. We have to confirm your story with the others," Donnelly said as the two stood to leave.

"What? You don't believe me?"

"We're just following procedure."

"Can I at least get out of this room. It feels as if I'm being confined. Are you arresting me?"

Donnelly sighed. Looking at him you'd never believe he is in the underworld watch. He looks so innocent. Like one of those people who frown on violence. But that could work as an advantage to him. At least it worked for him. People underestimate him a lot. That's why it's easy to get them down.

"Okay, you can wait outside. Come on," he gestured with a tilt of his head for him to follow.

........

"Uncle Ash?" Cammy called looking up at me. Her brown eyes were wet and puffy from crying. "Yes sweety?" "I want to go home."

Ashton sighed. He did too. He had finally gotten her back and they could finally go home. But he had to get a certain snarky vampire first. There was something and there's no way he's leaving before finding out what it was.

"We have to wait for uncle Noah," he told her hoping she wouldn't fuss. "Okay," she said and continued playing the game on his phone. He hadn't expected that. The game must be a good distraction, well it's fruit ninja even he gets sucked into the game while playing.

Ashton looked up when he heard footsteps approaching. "Mr. Brown?" an older man asked. He had black graying hair and dressed in a blue shirt and black slacks.

"Yes. Can I help you?"

"Angus McKinley. I'm the director of Underworld watch," he held out his hand.

"Nice to meet you. What's the hold up?"

"I just wanted to speak to you. I need your help," he said taking a seat beside him.

"With what?"

"We've been trying to put an end to a master vampire for some time now. I think you're what we need."

"Ivan? I think Noah will be more of a help than me,"he told him honestly. Where was the vampire anyway. That guy always had danger following him around.

"We need you both. I think a dragon will be a lot of help. Most of our senior agents are out. We only have the two who brought you in. So we need all the help," he said.

Ashton nodded, it was reasonable. But was he ready to fight now. He'd just gotten Cammy back. He wasn't ready to leave her side again. Where would she stay anyway?

"I-" he was cut short when a body slammed through the wall to his left. He started holding Cammy closer to him as he stood up.

The man stood up dusting his clothes before looking at them. "Oh hey Ashton, I was looking for you," Noah said with a smirk.

Well, what had he expected. It's Noah Black.
