Chapter 10
Glaring at the once family friend, Louvette was tormented. A wave of disgust overtook her body and soul in the same way a spectral ghost claiming someone to inhabit.
The impulse to do more than hit him took over her, but she needed to find out who was pulling his puppets strings. She would hold off for the time being to get what answers she could from him.
Hollows stood before her in a grey suit, appearing as dapper as the first time Louvette had laid eyes upon him. This man had blinded both her and her mother easily enough. The opportunity he offered them made them trust him almost on the spot. He was their grandfatherâs lawyer and had been since he first passed the bar, according to Louvetteâs mother who he had bragged to.
Before he was something from another world because of the way Louvette had grown up, but now he was some lying, backstabbing lawyer who had a possible murder charge under his belt. No amount of fine clothing would transform a snake into anything other than what it was.
âHow did you find us?â Louvette asked, clenching her fists beside her. She was ready to hit him. He deserved worse, and if Louvetteâs wolf had its own way, heâd receive worse.
âThe concierge reports to the Pacific Ocean Pack of visiting supernatural,â Thomas divulged.
âAh! I should listen to my instincts more. I noticed the one at the Clarion Hotel that couldnât stop staring as soon as I arrived,â Louvette said, sarcastically.
âI know how terrible this looks,â Thomas started out saying. He was the picture of innocence still.
âDo you? Because it looks like you killed my father and my grandfather with the help of the Pacific Ocean Pack to keep whatever dirty secrets youâre hiding,â Louvette said in a hard tone, sad over the vast number of broken hearts this man had caused. The heart of her mother twice. The heart of her grandfather twice. Her own heart, around three times.
âItâs not that black and white, Louvette,â he said as if that would make things better for either side of the fence.
âWhy did you do it?â she demanded, eyes narrowing. Louvette wished for his answer to be enough, but no answer would make up for what he had taken from her.
âThe deal was I would get Sarah,â he admitted.
The comment about if her mother remembered him came back to her similar to a lightning strike directly to the heart. It both halted her heartbeat, and recharged it. Getting rid of the last Blackwoods to get Louvette here had been his plan all along because if she came, so would her mother.
âWhat deal?â she asked, zeroing in on the odd word. A deal implied something agreed upon between two parties or more. He ignored her words and kept going.
âOnly she bolted before I could make her mine. Iâve loved your mother since the second she stepped foot in Whitefish. The day I planned to ask your mother out, your father had already done it,â Thomas confessed.
