Lost Girl

Chapter 12

   The group sat there in disbelief as George sat at the table with them. "Alex, please just go with it." Brandon whispered in her ear, as anger built up inside her. "I know this man." She whispered back. "We can forget about what happened a few weeks ago, you know, when you brought inside my camp and stole from me. Not to mention, killed some of my best men. I should do the same to you. But I'm not that kind of guy." George said as he smiled at everyone, stopping at Alex. "It had to be done. It's kill or be killed. We aren't scared of you anymore." Zara said as she stared straight into his eyes. Everyone looked at Zara in shock that she stood up to him. "But why? That's all I wanna know, I'm not here to hurt anyone or start trouble, yet." George said with a smirk. "They did it for me, I wouldn't be alive if I didn't have that cure. So whatever you're here for I suggest you get the hell out. If you don't like it, you can stuff it." Natalie said in anger as George stood up from the table. "So be it, you guys enjoy the rest of your night." He said with a polite tone as he left the club. "How the hell did he know we were here?"  Zoella asked with fear in her voice. "He knows everything, I bet you any money he's watching us right now." Myra replied as they looked towards the exit. Ginger walked up to their table, barely able to stand straight. "Sorry for not being able to join you guys tonight, I still don't feel right." Ginger said as she walked away. "Please don't tell me you didn't...." Farrah said. "Let's just go, it was a fun night while it lasted." Myra said as they all stood up from the table and left The Cherry.

...

   Myra arrived home first with Jake and Zoella. "I can already tell I'm gonna have a hella serious hangover tomorrow. I'm just gonna head straight to bed." Zoella said with a laugh as she began to make her way up the steps. "Night." Myra said as she watched Zoella drunk walk up the steps. As Myra was going to turn around to say goodnight to Jake, he stood there looking like he had to get something off his chest. "We need to talk." He said with a nervous tone. "What's wrong? You seem so nervous." Myra said in confusion. "We truly never talked about our relationship, and how we want things to go." Jake said as they both sat down on the couch. "What about it exactly?" Myra asked. "I really do love you, I didn't think we would connect the way we did. I'm not exactly the type that likes to date, especially a Fae. Just saying." He said with a small chuckle. "Jake I didn't realize you felt this serious about us." Myra said in with a surprised look on her face. "I don't know how you feel about me, but I know for a fact I truly do love you." Jake said as he looked into Myra's eyes. "Jake. I don't know what to say. I never truly got this far with a guy and all." Myra rambled on as they heard the front door open up and the rest of the drunk girls piled into the house. "We'll talk another time." Jake said with a pissed off tone of voice as he stood up from the couch and quickly left the house. "God damn it." Myra said to herself as she went upstairs, and finally went to bed.

...

   Zoella woke up in her bed, her hair was a complete mess and her covers were over her face. As she sat up on the bed, she saw Zara and Natalie passed out in the other side of the bed. "Why are you guys in here?" Zoella asked in confusion. "I'm wondering the same thing." Natalie said with a laugh as she rubbed her eyes. "We were probably too drunk last night to even make it to our rooms." Zara said as they all began to laugh. "I don't wanna kill the fun but, I don't feel right with that George guy. He seems to be all business." Natalie said with a concerned look on her face. "I don't know how he found us, but I don't like it a single but. I'm worried too." Zara said as she agreed with Natalie. "We put this off for too long, it's time we deal with it." Zoella said as Myra walked into the room. "Woah, do I wanna ask why you're all in a bed together?" She said with a laugh. "Blame the alcohol." Natalie replied back with a laugh as they all started laughing again. "Jake admitted he loved me last night. I don't know what I'm gonna do." Myra said as she sat down on the bed. "And what?" Zara asked. "I don't think I'm ready for a serious relationship. He knows I'm a Fae, but it's more complicated than that." Myra said with a sigh. "What's she's trying to say is that she could kill him." Zoella said with a serious look on her face. "That's something you need to figure out for yourself. I know you'll make the right choice." Natalie said with a smile. "I just need to make things right. Thanks girls." Myra said as she looked at everyone and smiled, then left the room.

   Farrah walked into the police station and saw Brandon and Carter sitting at their desks. "Sitting around doing nothing I see." She said with a laugh. "I'm surprised to see you here." Carter said with confusion. "I just wanted to stop by and tell you guys something. We need you both more than ever right now. I have a bad feeling George is going to go on some kind of rampage. We need extra protection if that's okay with you." She said with a concerned tone of voice. "Of course. I'll always protect you girls no matter what." Brandon said with a small smile. "You guys surely  don't get enough credit, I couldn't thank either of you enough." Farrah said with a big smile as she left the office, Alex was waiting for her outside. "We need to talk." She said. "I think we talked enough last night." Farrah said with a cold tone of voice. "I'm sorry for acting the way I did. I thought about it, and I don't wanna be the bad guy here. I just wanna be the one who makes a change, I know what's going on, and I wanna help." Alex said as she looked into Farrah's eyes. "You don't like Fae. I honestly just don't think there's much more to say here." Farrah said as she tried walking away but Alex grabbed her shoulder. "I don't. But I sense you guys are in serious danger, and my job is to protect people no matter what. I promise you, something good will come your way in this. You have my protection, I promise." Alex said. "Well, you have my trust then, and if I were you, I wouldn't break it. See you around." Farrah said with a wink as she got into her car and drove away.

George opened the door to his office, and a person was tied up to the wall, with a sack over their face hiding their identity. "You know, I really trusted you." He said as he pulled the sack off the persons face, it was Erin, his servant, and she was bruised everywhere with blood all on her face, and her clothes were stained with it. "You can trust me." Erin said with tears in her eyes. "Obviously I can't. You helped them get that cure. I needed that. You just don't seem to understand do you? Now I need to make a decision." George said as he began to think. "Make a decision about what?" Erin said with a puzzled look on her face. "Whether or not I should kill you. You know it has to be done, right?" George said as he looked at the knife on the table. "No, it really doesn't!" Erin said in fear as she began to kick and pull at the ropes. "Don't move. I'll be back, then my decision will be made." George said as he quickly left the room. Erin tried as hard as she could to escape from the ropes but she couldn't, she felt fear building up inside her, but there was nothing else she could do. Her time is running out.
