Chapter 34

I watched the two depart, frowning. “Not sure what good that will do you.”

Van watched him curiously, then turned back to me with the same look. I shrugged at the unspoken question. I had seen Alucard suntan, decline high-quality blood, and eat garlic. He was something new, alright. “Any news on the Grimm?”

He shook his head. “Absolutely nothing. Which is impressive. It’s almost as if she’s not in town. Sure she wasn’t just passing through?”

I scowled at his answer. And his question. “Call it a hunch.” I let out a breath, frustrated. “So, you’re in. What does that mean? What does he have you doing? Have you found the chimera?”

He held up his hands. “Jesus, man. Quiet.” His eyes darted about, checking for nearby customers who might have overheard.

A wave of anxiety rolled over me. “Did they follow you here?” I hissed.

He shook his head. “No, I’m sure of that. But there are other Freaks here. Just commonplace Freaks going about their day, but still. Keep your voice down.” I nodded in relief. “I haven’t actually started yet, but I do know where he keeps the prisoners.”

I nodded. “Yeah, already got that part.”

He was shaking his head. “No, I’m confident that you don’t.”

“The quarry.”

He blinked at me. “You bought tickets. You arrogant bastard. He’ll never see that coming,” he muttered sarcastically. “But in point of fact, he’s not at the quarry. Yet. And neither are the prisoners. My interview process took me to two different warehouses in town, and they each had prisoners.”

I blinked. “What? I thought he only had a dozen or so? Two warehouses?” Damn it.

“But I think he’s going to have them all moved to the quarry during the fight. He’ll need extra bodies to throw into the ring. Also, his whole crew will be there. He doesn’t want to risk having his treasures stolen while he’s otherwise occupied.” I sighed in relief.

“Maybe lead with that next time, bastard.”

“Or I could lead with, I know where tonight’s abduction is going down.” He smiled.

I let out a frustrated breath, seriously contemplating murdering him. “Tell me. Pretty please. Or I’ll murder you to death.”

He grinned, and told me.

“I’ll do my best to try and locate the chimera, and any other general info you might find helpful in your suicide attempt, but Nate… You need to hear this.” His eyes grew distant as he shook his head at a memory. “He has creatures I’ve never even heard about. And he’s had them for a long time. These things are feral. More beast than man. Most of them do not require saving, just killing.”

I was shaking my head. “They’re just kids. They need help.”

He gripped me by the shoulders and pulled me close, inches away. “No. Listen. These things… you stare in their eyes and all you see is wildness. Hunger. Bloodlust. No rational thought. Just instincts. He… breaks them, Temple. On a level that I hadn’t thought possible. Trust me. I’ve hunted Freaks for a long time. I’ve never come across a Freak this far beyond the lines of madness.
