Chapter Nine

Exhausted didn’t even begin to cover how tired he was. They had been talking all night about the details. Each time he told it, the story only became more firm in his memory.

There’s no way what he encountered could have been anything other than human. Not that it had helped his case. No one believed him. He ground his teeth in irritation. What the hell good was it to catch someone in the act if no one was going to believe him?

Overworked they said. He could have laughed if it didn’t piss him off so much. Like he’d been given much work recently. No, he’d been assigned the babysitting job. Not really high on his list.

If only they had seen something. But there was nothing. He’d been over the scene several times himself. No footsteps but his own. No forced entry. Hell, Sol hadn’t even heard anything, and yet he’d heard Apollo.

This only meant one thing in his mind: whoever had been there was a professional. What that meant, he wasn’t really certain, but he was going to find out. If they had chosen to go toward the family housing, they probably worked for the Horatius Group.

Apollo glared back at the clinic. The last thing he’d wanted to do this morning was have a scan. And yet he went anyway. Mostly because he knew if he didn’t, Rachel wouldn’t have any problem calling out his ass. He didn’t need his shit to start making the rounds. Who knew what the men would think of it?

He revved the engine of his car, the test results weighing heavily on his mind. There was so little they would be able to do for him. If they ended up trying to take it out, it seemed the least of his worries was losing his sight. What that meant concerning how they proceeded was something he struggled with, especially since he might pose the biggest threat in the compound, just from one little chip.

The car jerked a little as he pulled out of the lot and on to the smooth road. He didn’t know what he would do if they actually said he was a hazard to everyone around him. Apollo gripped the steering wheel. Maybe if he just found the scumbag who was lurking around?

He gave a harsh laugh.

It seemed like he was always ending up in the same spot, trying to prove to the rest of the men who he was. Never quite enough and always the kid. He kind of realized how Marius had felt. He was sick of this shit. He came to a halt outside the cabin and frowned.

“Goddamn kids,” he grumbled and climbed out of the car.

Val sat on the porch with two of the hybrid teens. The teens were scarfing down large pieces of chocolate cake.

“What the hell are you two doing here?” he barked at them.

The smaller one shot him a dirty look, and he remembered him from their fall festival.

“Ms. Hannah said you might need help,” he said and wiped his chocolate covered face on his hand.
