CHAPTER TWELVE

LUCIEN

‘’She’s got some balls,’’ Damien stated, sitting his massive frame in the chair next to mine as we watched Scarlett walk around the club as if she didn’t have a care in the world. ‘’I’ll give her that,’’ watching as she stopped to have a short brief chat with various persons from my workforce.

The ones she spoke to show a liking to her while others showed the dishpan they had. At some point, I would deal with the ones who showed her disrespect. I wanted her to feel comfortable staying here. I took note that they were the ones, she didn’t bother with.

‘’She looks pissed off,’’ Damien stated his head to one side as he gazed at the monitor, not hiding the curiosity in his eyes. I had been waiting for him to comment on the having her stay, but so far, not a word had left his mouth, which was a surprise in itself. Considering he didn’t hold anything back if he had an opinion. He had told me his option on Aria, whether I had liked it or not. He was one of the few males I’d let speak to me the way he does. If it was someone else, they’d be six feet under. I scratched my cheeks, feeling the growth of hair that had grown over the last few days. I watched her on the TV monitors. Trying to realise why I was so fascinated with her. Fuck I couldn’t explain it, I hated witches, and I couldn’t stand the bitches and seeing that there hadn’t been any around for so long, we had thought they’d been wiped out. Finding that they hadn’t been, was a shock on its own. I had been avoiding her, my demon wasn’t happy. He also isn’t satisfied with the fact; I’d been spending time with Aria. He’d made that more than apparent. He had told me that he wanted to hurt her. I couldn’t allow that to happen. I hadn’t slept for the last few days, and shaving hadn’t even entered my mind. I had finally gotten rid of Aria, for how long I didn’t know. It wouldn’t surprise me if she turned up unannounced in the next few days as she had now started to do. I had informed my men, that the minute she stepped back on my property, I was to know. I couldn’t trust her.

Intel had come in late last night. I would be passing it onto Scarlett as I had promised. After all, I was a businessman, if nothing else, and helped me in the long run even better. I had instructed Logan to look into our tapes of the night her sister had gone missing. She’d been seen entering with her friends and talking to different people over the time they been here. So far, nothing, not one speck of evidence. We didn’t know if she’d left on her own or with a male or female. It showed her friends leaving, but she hadn’t been in the group.
