Chapter 25

Lexi's POV:

The diner on Forrestkamp Road was the only diner in the town of Blood Rose. From the outside, it looked like a regular diner. If you were human,the inside would look the same. However if you were supernatural, you would realise that the diner wasn't regular. Yes they served coffee before 5am and you couldn't order breakfast past 11:30am, but you wouldn't know that the waitresses were werewolves or the chef in the kitchen was a hunter.

Brushing down my jeans and pulling my jumper down, I opened the door and stepped though. The bell chiming behind me as walked in. Scanning the diner, all seemed normal. A waitress came towards me, instantly recognising me. She placed her hand behind my back and lead me toward the back counter booth. I sat down and looked at her. I looked at her name tag. Stella. She looked no older than 17. I softly sniffed the air she was in, but I couldn't recognised the scent. Either I have never met her or she was an expert on hiding herself. Her blonde hair was tied in a bun, her clothes scuffled, like she was called in last minute. She handed me a menu and said

"I'll be back in a few minutes to take your order"

Scanning the menu or like scanning the crowd to see if the mysterious note giver was here. Everyone was occupied, doing there own thing. Stella came back holding a mug of coffee. She then placed it in front of me.

"It's complementary" she said as I stared at the mug like it was an alien. She walked away again and I checked the time on my watch.

3:59pm

I looked at Stella who had now taken out a notepad and a pen and was tapping the paper.

"Oh sorry what did you say?" I asked, embarrassed that I didn't know she was waiting for me.

"What would you like?" She repeated again. I scanned the menu once over and decided on

"I know it's past breakfast. Well and truly past. But I'm kinda craving a stack of pancakes with vanilla ice cream" she chuckled under her breath and said it was alright. She ripped the paper out and put the notepad and pen back in her apron. Before she could walk off, I asked

"Stella, I was wondering if I could get a another knife. This one looks a tad blunt and I like my knives sharp"

She looked at my like I was a serial killer and slowly took the knife from my hand, nodded and walked away. A couple of minutes later, she returned with my pancakes and a sharper knife and placed them in front of me. After a few nibbles of tasting it, I took huge chunks of food. I pushed my plate forward and rubbed my stomach. I looked around the diner and noticed that it was empty. I stood up abruptly, looking around the room. I stopped when I saw a man sitting at the counter sipping coffee. He seemed like he didn't know what was going on. I walked up toward him and tapped his shoulder. He slouched forward, not responding to my action. I looked around his body and unzipped the jacket he was wearing. Blood stained the man's chest and was leaking out of his body. I checked his pulse. Nothing.

"He was such a young guy. Does suck to be him" I zipped around and took a step back, my back hitting the counter top. The man, was polishing his gun with a dish rag. He was sitting down with his leg crossed over his thigh, polishing his fucking gun.

"Is that even legal to have here in California?"

He looked at me like I was a idiot and to be honest, I don't blame him.

"I'm sitting in front of you polishing my gun which I just shot that man with and the first thing you ask is if it's legal to posses a gun in California?"

I nodded slowly, fearing that if I said something wrong, he would shoot me.

"You're late"

He nodded once and continued polishing it. He threw the rag on the ground and stood up. He placed the gun in his jeans.

"So do you have it?" He asked. The man placed his hands in his leather jacket.

"How did you get in here without me knowing you stepped inside"

"Look lady, you answer the questions I ask you, not the other way around, alright"

"Alright, I don't have the artefact which your boss desires because there is no such thing in that house. I have looked everywhere. It felt like reassembled the house trying to find it"

Ignoring what I had said, he sat back down and checked over his gun.

"So you don't want to see your sister in law and her alive do you ?"

" Of course I do dickface, but your boss needs to learn how to give clues. The only ancient artefact I know, that I possessed was buried when my mother died when I was eight"

"You mean this?" I watched as the man pulled out a necklace from his pocket. I gasped and took a step forward. It's can't be real. It must be a fake. It has it be.

"Where did you get that?" I stuttered, walking closer to the man.

"Your father gave it to last night as a bargaining chip to get you to corporate"

"Freddie doesn't own this nor does he know you. I would of found it by now and if he has met you, my pack has 24 sercuity, we would who you are "

I watched as the man threw his head back and laughed. A deep chuckle. He kept laughing for a few minutes, until I threw a knife at his knife which narrowly missed him and dug into the wall behind him.

"I don't who this 'Freddie' is, but he isn't your father. Not your biological one at least. You fathers name is Michael Forrester and he is the Alpha of the Cresent Moon Pack and your mother is Luna"

"My mother died in pack attack when I eight. I buried her. She's dead"

"Whatever you chose to believe, I don't care, but your dad wants to met you, so does your mum"

"So your telling me, that Rose and Tyler got kidnapped because my father wanted to talk to me? Why didn't he knock on the door and say 'Hey just to inform you that guy claiming to be father isn't in fact your father. I'm am. Oh and lady you buried wasn't your mother, she was just some random person taking care of you while we did whatever the hell we wanted to' ".

"Just to inform you we released Rose and Tyler from our dungeons the second I walked in. Your dad was trying to protect you because we know that there is a mole in your pack and that there is someone or something higher in the supernatural world wanting you and everybody you love dead"

"Who are you?" 

With that he walked to the door and turned around

"My name Blake and you didn't know that everyone left and that I walked in because you were devouring your pancakes. Or maybe you just imanging this entire conversation in your head. I'll be seeing you soon Lexi"

A few mintues after the man had left, everybody started coming in though the door and all resumed like nothing happend. I turned around to look at the counter and the man wasn't there. Shaking my head i walked out of the diner.
