Chapter 8

Marshall had been searching the web and his files all morning, looking for any further information on Rainer and his Coven. He wanted info on where they lived, where they slept, where they spent any of their time. Despite details of their businesses, there was little available on their personal lives.

Picking up his mobile phone, Bill called his friend Tommy. He had wanted to keep his old friends out of the fight as much as possible, but the situation was getting ever more dangerous and he needed some leads.

“Hey, Tommy.”

“Bill, how’s it going?”

“Alright, listen, I need some info.”

“Yeah, shoot.”

“I’m looking for Rainer and any of his Coven, I need any intel you can give me as to their location.”

“Alright, when do you need it by?”

“Soon as you can.”

“Will do.”

“Tommy?”

“Yeah, Bill.”

“Thanks. There’s a bar just outside town to the East called Mackenzie’s, you know it?”

“Yes.”

“Meet me there at eight, with anything you can get your hands on.”

“Will do.”

Marshall put the phone down. Despite having few people left that he could rely on, he knew Tommy would always have his back. He wished he could bring him in on the fight, but it was not a fair risk to put his best friend through, even more so the man’s family. Marshall did a quick search on detective Frank Matthews with his laptop. Within seconds, he knew the man’s precinct.

Sitting back in his chair, Bill thought about Matthews. He was wary of trusting cops, as despite having the right intentions, they were forever restricted by the law and also had little understanding of the conflict with the Vampires. The drama of the previous day had proven that Frank was a good man and he needed the trust and counsel of such men. Bill called up the precinct.

“Please put me through to Detective Frank Matthews.”

“Can I ask who is calling?” asked the operator.

“John Williams, I’m a friend.”

“Please hold.”

The phone went silent for a few seconds until it was picked up by a familiar voice.

“Hello? Who is this?” asked Matthews.

“Hi, Frank, can you talk?” asked Bill.

“Jesus, Bill, you know how much shit I’d be in if anyone knew we were talking?”

“Yeah, sorry, just needed a few minutes of your time.”

“Alright, go.”

“I’ve been thinking about yesterday. Did you call in my sighting before approaching?”

“Yes, of course.”

“You appreciate that the three guys that attacked us knew where we were and who was in the car?”

“You suggesting someone in my precinct was involved?”

“I know they are, how else could they have gotten that info?”

“Shit, this doesn’t get any better does it?”

“Sorry, haven’t got any good news for you. Rainer has his hand in most things that go on in this city, and he will not stop until I’m dead.”

“What do you want me to do?”

“Just your job, you have corruption in your house, root it out.”

“Alright, will do what I can. Bill? I didn’t thank you for yesterday.”

“You don’t need to thank me. Your partner Simmons, when’s the funeral?”

“In two days. Why?”

“I would like to pay my respects, if I’m still around.
