Chapter Sixteen

Shaw

Shaw was very careful during their drive to his grandmother’s apartment. Nick had given him a few tips on what to look for, in case they were followed. He knew that Bennett and a few other shifters were trailing them in case the three Cain brothers crossed their paths. If they did, Nick’s crew would be ready for them. An ambush was all but planned.

All he had to do was get his nana out of her apartment and into a nursing home.

That was not something he was looking forward to doing. He had vowed to her, a long time ago, that she would never see the inside of one of those places. He could only hope that Poppy worked in a nice one that would take care of his grandmother. She was the only family he had left, and he wanted her to be happy for the rest of her days on earth.

Shaw led the way into the decrepit building and up the dingy stairs. Poppy’s face was pinched, and he could feel the anger and shock rolling off of her in waves. About fifteen years ago, the building had been fine. It was old, but the owners had taken good care of it. Since the Cains had bought it, it had fallen into disrepair. They definitely didn’t pour any of the rent money they collected into keeping the place safe and sanitary.

The carpeted hallway was stained and frayed. The stench of mildew and dust was much more pronounced now that he had a shifter nose. Shaw had very little money and crushing student loans, but he would find a way to make sure his grandmother never had to set foot back into that place again. Once he took her out of there, that would be it. He would find a better place for her. Even if it was in his tiny studio apartment.

He used his key to unlock the door and motioned for Poppy to lead the way in.

“Nana?” he called out.

“Come on in, Shaw. I’m in the living room. My story is on.”

Shaw chuckled lightly, motioning for Poppy to follow him. Just the sound of Nana’s voice made him feel better. The apartment smelled like freshly baked cookies and Nana’s old perfume. He was pretty sure it was permeated into the walls.

“Nana, I have a guest with me. I should also warn you—”

“Holy Wheaties!” Nana shouted. “What the hell happened to you, Shaw?” She hopped off her huge armchair with more ease than expected. Her back was curved with age, but her eyes were still full of light and life. She took her grandson’s arm in one gnarled hand and squeezed. “This better not be those steroids I heard about. They shrink the pecker. Not exactly a good thing if you want to keep your lady happy.”

“Nana,” he chided with a good-natured laugh.

“What?” She gave Poppy a wink. “It’s true. Besides, you’ve packed on quite a bit of weight since I saw you last week. You’re looking fit.
