Adalind Schade :Bloodlines

Chapter 4

"We have what you asked for and are waiting for you"

"I will be there in 20 mins." Adalind grabbed her keys and headed out the door. She got into her car and looked to see if anyone was blocking her way. It was all clear " Seems to be a sign that my night is going to great" she smiled to herself as she pulled away. As she drove down the long dark road she saw the storage depot and pull in and got out. She went in to see two men standing with a huge box.

" , as requested one dead hexenbiest" they opened the coffin like box, but it was empty.

"Is this some kind of a joke?" she asked them feeling her anger rising.

"No mam'm this is what it is" she felt two hands grab her just like it did in her dream. She opened her mouth to scream but a hand clamped it shut and the last thing she saw was the lid closing on her.

Nick and Hank reached Liv Liverston's home or more like Mansion.

"Guess this is the perks of being partner" Hank smirked. They walked up to the door and rang the bell. The door was opened by a butler.

"We are here to see , Detectives Burkhardt and Griffin"

"Yes Sir please come in and wait while I get .", Nick and Hank looked around at the paintings. Most of them depicted hunting in some form. But the most disturbing was the one where a human was being burnt alive and creatures dancing around him as he was roasted alive.

"Detectives what a pleasant surprise, what do I owe the pleasure of your visit?" She looked directly at Nick. Nick looked at her hoping she would woge, but she didn't.

"Shall we go to my study and have a chat?" they walked into a study that was the size of a library adorned with very old books and journals. The other side of the wall were old weapons much like the ones he had in the trailer.

"I see your fascinated with the weapons a lot of people do. These have been used by my ancestors to hunt all types of creatures" she smiled but there was something sinister about her smile.

"Ms. Liverston we have information that you had an argument with the victims, Kelly Price and Darlene Kent. Can you tell us about it?"

"Kelly used to handle client accounts and Darlene as you know was one of the managing partners. I on the other hand was hired by Ms. Deirdre Kent to keep an eye on her sister. When a problem rose with one of major client account I had to pull up both Kelly and Darlene on it because they were the ones who handled the client. During our discussion we did get into an argument but it was strictly about business with absolutely no personal strings attached." she said as she helped herself to some wine "Would you like some?" she asked raising a glass to them

"No, thanks. One of your other colleague was attacked this evening, Ms. Wellsworth"

"Oh no, is she alright?"

"She is fine, but she told us that some creature attacked her"

"What sort of a creature?"

"A winged one" Nick said looking straight at her, she looked tensed for a second then relaxed.

"I am sorry cant help you there" she said as she took another sip of her wine.

"We wont take up anymore of your time. Thank you" They both got up to leave when Liz asked Nick to stay back.

"Detective, lets not play games here, I know your a Grimm. The question is do you know what I am? You seem to wait for me to woge into some kind of wesen, which will not happen anytime soon." She said smiling at him.

"You are definitely not wesen, or else you would have woged. But how did you know I am a Grimm? Wesen know when they see it in my eyes but how do you know?" he asked curious as ever. " Are you a reaper?" he said getting ready to take his gun out.
