Chapter 39
Amber
They needed dirt on Carter, and Amber had an idea how they might be able to find some on short notice. However, this was one trip she was making alone. There was no way she ever letting any of the pack near Bram if she could help it.
Visiting the old bat wasnât exactly her idea of a good time, but sacrifices had to be made. In this case, her blood. And her mental well-being.
Sheâd let Genevieve know where she was going and why she needed to see Bram alone. Her beta hadnât been happy about it but had agreed it was the best way to approach the vampire.
Turning down the narrow road, she spotted the old, brick building the vampire lived in. The same guard was standing near the chain link fence. Hopefully he remembered her, or this might be a very short visit.
She rolled down her window as she came to a stop and leaned her head out with a smile. âHello again.â
The vampire pushed back his hood as he approached, returning her smile. His yellow eyes reflected back the light of her headlights for a moment until he passed the hood of her truck. âShaneâs friend, welcome back. What brings you here today?â
âIâd like to talk to Bram, if heâs available.â
The vampire looked over his shoulder and she heard someone say something, but couldnât make out what over the rumble of the diesel engine.
âYouâre in luck, he is. Go ahead.â
The gate slid open and she drove through, parking in the same open spot as last time. There was a different guard at the door this time but they let her through without comment, seeming completely uninterested in who she was or what she was doing here.
As she walked in, the sickening smell of blood hit her just as hard as it had the last time. She ground her teeth together and forced herself to keep walking. Shane wasnât here to distract her, something she was already beginning to regret. He would have come if she had asked. This whole going-it-alone thing might backfire horribly.
The only light inside the old building came from the TV. A couple of people were sprawled out on one of the couches scattered throughout the room watching it or snoring.
She paused at the top of the stairs that led to the basement. Bram was willing to see her but that didnât mean heâd actually help her. Taking a deep breath, she walked down the stairs.
The door at the bottom opened immediately and Bram smiled up at her, shirtless, just like last time. His pale eyes glowed faintly in the darkness. âWelcome back, Amber.â
âThank you for seeing me,â she said politely.
He grinned at her, his sharp incisors making it look more menacing than friendly. âOf course, any friend of Shaneâs is always welcome here. Please, come in.â He stepped back and waved her inside.
She nodded and jogged down the last couple of steps. The room was just as she remembered. Those creepy paintings covered the walls.
