"Hello, We're here to visit Regina Wilkans." I tell the officer at the front desk. He stops flipping through pages and raises An eyebrow at me.

"The Regina Wilkans?" he asks, taken back by what had come out of my mouth. I confirm with a nod before he sighs, shaking his head.

"She hasn't had a visitor in fifteen years." He implies, leaning closer to the glass. I roll my eyes and tap my foot, impatiently.

"You sure you want to.. Ya know, visit her?" he asks, making eye contact.

"Positive." I lean closer before he writes my name on a visitor tag to stick on my shirt.

"What about him?" I ask, pointing to Camden.

"Oh- Well depending on.. Reginas... Uh rank, only one visitor is allowed at once. We'll bring her right out." He explains. I nod before turning around.

"You sure you want to do this?" Camden asks, leaning against the wall. I hesitate before answering.

"I'm sure. I can handle myself." With that, the officer buzzes open the door and leads me through, sitting me down in a corner table with an empty chair in front of me. My stomach turns in knots, wanting to get this over with already.

"Over there," An officer says, pointing Over to me. A woman with Red hair and blue eyes meets my gaze. Flashing a crooked smile, she glides over and sits down in front of me.

"I'm Maizy, Your niece." I introduce myself, sitting up right in my seat.

"Ahhh. I haven't seen you since you- well, ever. Nice to meet you." A southern drawl takes over her voice, making herself seem a tad more friendly.

"I know what you are. I know why you're in here and I'm apart of the 'association' " I skip directly to the reason I'm here. I wanted answers. And that's exactly what I was going to get. I was determined.

"Do ya now? Well alright, miss banshee do tell. What'd ya wanna know?" She spits back. The corner of my mouth tips before answering.

"My-uh, friend and I have a new mission and I figured someone like you could answer a few questions." I explain, meeting eye contact with Camden peering into the room, watching me. Regina takes notice and turns around, waving.

"Sweetie, a hottie like that isn't just a guy you're friends with." She implies, turning back toward me. My fists clench under the table.

"Yeah, he's my boyfriend but that's not the point," I start leaning closer to her.

"We got a message saying we have a new mission. Something about watching out for people like us." I feed her the details as she nods in understanding.

"Straight business huh? Well okay. Lets play that way." She smirks, leaning closer to me.

"They keep me updated in everything. I know who the new head of that shit hole is and he's not good. He's bad news. As for this new mission, well," She chuckles before tightening her lips into a line.

"Looks like you've got new 'partners' " She uses air quotes on partners. I sit back, crossing my arms, trying to process who it might be. But when no one comes to mind, Regina snaps me back into reality.

"You really have the nerve to walk in here and ask me for information just like that?!" she stands up, banging her fists on the table, making me flinch. I look over my shoulder to see Camden sending daggers through my aunt. My thoughts take over, and before I know it, I push my chair back, banging my hands on the table and lean close.

"Yeah, I do. You've been locked in this prison for fifteen fucking years, Regina. I'm the only one who's given a damned let alone has the guts to visit your sorry ass." I spit back. She cocks her brows, taken aback of my reaction.

"You listen to me." she growls. Her eyes slowly shift to the yellow color, telling me what's going to happen next.

"Watch your damned back kid. And never come back here again." She hisses, and walks away, bumping my shoulder in the process.

"Fuckin bitch." I murmur, heading to the door back to Camden.

"I heard that!" I hear Regina yell. I turn around and find her darting at me. She squeezes my neck, using her other hand to push me up against the wall. I jump at her sudden actions but honestly, its no suprise.

"Last person who called me a bitch wounded up in their grave," She Snickers through clenched teeth. Her grip tightens making it harder to he take in and out.

"It's gonna take a lot more than a threat to scare me." I growl, using my hands to push her off of me. She stumbles back, crashing into a table where an older woman sat. Gasps fill the air along with multiple looks toward the scene. Walking over to my aunt, I look he up and down.

"No wonder my mother never told us about you." I sneer before turning back to the door. A tug to my hair is felt, reminding me that enough is never enough. Multiple blows go to my face. I feel contact with my jaw, and by this time I can already taste the blood building. I spit it on her, in hopes for a chance to get my turn. She jumps away, wiping the blood off her face. Gaining my balance, I stand up, brushing myself off.

"Have fun staying in here." I say and with that, raise my foot and make contact with her face as hard as I can, gunning it toward The door.

"Maizy what the Fuck?" Camden yells, following me down the halls and out the door. I run to his truck, impatiently pulling the handle. We hop in and pull out of the parking lot. We start down the long road that lead us here, and sit in silence. I look out the window, watching the tall pines whip passed us. The season's changing really is beautiful. Especially in this part of town.

"There's napkins in the glove box." Camden sighs, glancing over at me. Cocking a brow, I look at my reflection in the window.

"Ohhh right." I open the compartment up and grab some napkins, instantly going for the cut that was now on my lip. For a small cut, it sure bled alot.

"You're crazy you know that?" he asks, putting a hand on my knee. I grin, reaching for his hand.

"Yeah, but you love me." I flirt, looking back out the window.

"Very Much, So."

Okay so maybe it wasn't the best decision to come here in the first place. But I had to have my answers. I haven't even told Camden about what she said, but I'll get around to it. The only thing I'm worried about is my mom finding out I went to see her. The last thing I need is her worrying about what I'm doing.

I guess we'll cross that bridge when it comes.
