Chapter Sixteen
People are asking around, looking for the whereabouts of your boy.
Beau glanced at Jakeâs text, and then slid off the kitchen stool heâd been sitting on, watching Blue have fun making lunch. Their burger night had been a success, although Blue couldnât quite manage his fourth burger and while he didnât stay awake to watch much of the movie, Beau didnât mind. He could only imagine that someone whoâd spent six years sleeping under bushes had a lot of sleep in a bed to catch up on.
âIâd better not hear youâre being blamed for another murder,â Blue warned as he flipped eggs. âYou have five minutes.â
âI promise, precious.â Clicking the connect button, Beau held his phone up to his ear as he wandered into the living room. âWhat people? When?â He demanded as soon as Jake answered the phone.
âBetty over at the Can-Can let one of our ladies know last night. Those two European idiots were in making a lot of noise â not as much money to flash around, Betty noticed. But from what she could make out, they are looking for the freak with the blue hair and theyâre paying a reward for him. You know as well as I do, no matter what we do, there are still a lot of rough sleepers whoâd sell their mother for a fix.â
âI want them picked up,â Beau growled. âIdeally, I want them run out of town, but I especially donât want them running around making promises to people they donât have the funds to keep.â
âNot to mention, you donât like the idea of your mate being a target, which is understandable.â Jake paused and then said, âWhy donât we just go to the Can-Can club tonight? No one can find the hotel theyâre staying at, although one of the guys who runs the coffee shop down the block mentioned he thought they might be over on the East side.â
âWe might have to.â Beau sighed. After making his promise, he would have to take Blue with him, and while he wasnât embarrassed to be seen with his precious mate, he didnât want Dank and Nodge feasting their grubby little eyes on him. âYou know, most people when they get told no for a blow job just accept it and look for someone more willing. This behavior from our European nuisances is bordering on obsessive.â
âI might know that reason. Iâm not sure, Iâve only heard this third-hand mind,â Jake said slowly, âbut thereâs a possibility the two idiots believe Blue is more than he appears.â
âIn a paranormal sense?â Beau frowned, before glancing in the direction of the kitchen. Plates were clacking about. Blue mustâve finished cooking.
âNo. No.â There were some muffled sounds, and then a door closing, before Jakeâs voice came back. âSomeone, and that someone would have to be a law enforcement officer because theyâre the only ones that know apart from you and me, has let it slip that Blueâs first name is Prince.
