Chapter 11

95% of the time when I’m smiling, it’s over something I said, not over something you said.

-Blythe to Brooklyn

Blythe

We arrived at an enormous warehouse off the Old East Side twenty minutes later.

Instead of stopping at the front door, like I’d assumed he was going to do, someone opened the massive front door a crack, and Keifer rode straight in.

Since it was daylight, we hadn’t had the light on.

Therefore, when we got inside the large garage, it was pitch black and I couldn’t see a freakin’ thing.

Squeezing Keifer a little more tightly, I waited with bated breath to see what we were going to do next.

When the engine turned off, the noise in the cavernous space was nonexistent, almost making my ears hurt with the lack thereof.

“What’s going on?” I asked quietly.

Or at least tried to.

The whisper echoed off the walls of the garage, and I blinked as I heard a couple of deep chuckles.

Closing my eyes, I willed there to be light when I opened them again and was pleased to see that there was as my eyelids parted.

“Good girl,” Keifer said, patting my leg.

I blinked.

“What?” I asked in confusion.

“I wanted you to light the way. So I told them not to,” he muttered, easing off the bike.

Reluctantly, I let him go, and rose as well as I asked, “Them who?”

Then I saw ‘them.’

Nikolai, I knew.

The other four gigantic men, I didn’t.

All of them were really big guys, so when I say gigantic, I mean big.

All of them were nearly Keifer’s height, and they were all quite muscular, also like Keifer.

What made them differ from Keifer was that they seemed almost meaner.

Less approachable.

And they were all wearing something similar to what Keifer had on.

They must’ve really been a bona fide motorcycle club.

I looked around, half expecting to see club whores like they had on Sons of Anarchy, but I didn’t see a soul.

Five men were staring at me, as if I was an intruder into the space that should only be occupied by people with testicles.

Nikolai was the first to speak.

“Blythe.”

That was it.

That was all he said. One single word, and it had zero inflection, so I couldn’t tell if it was a ‘Hi, Blythe, happy to see you’ or rather a ‘Blythe, I can’t believe you’re here. You suck.’

So, settling for neutral. “Nikolai.”

He didn’t smile, per se, but I could see his eyes sparkle slightly.

The man at his side, a blonde behemoth with a smile that would make a killing on a toothpaste commercial, ordered, “Introduce us.”

Keifer snorted. “From left to right you have Nikolai, Ford, Alaric, Jean Luc and Dorian.”

That was it.

Just names.

And none of them said hi.

Fun shit right here!

So, like the stubborn ass I was, I didn’t say anything either.

Instead, I crossed my arms across my chest, and widened my stance for comfort. Then stared right along with them.

We continued this for a few long moments before Keifer sighed.

“They’re testing you, Blythe,” Keifer explained.

“Hmmm,” I surmised. “That’s cool. Do you think I could go sit
