Chapter 15

“I understand your frustration.” I’m doing my best to remain calm, but the agitated man in front of me doesn’t seem to comprehend what I’m saying.

“It’s just a damn rabies shot,” he huffs for the hundredth time.

“Only veterinarians can administer rabies inoculations,” I repeat.

“Where else can I go?” With a sour look on his angry face, he glares down at the whimpering puppy in the too small cage at his feet.

“New York,” I answer dryly. “They allow vet techs to administer them there.”

“That’s ridiculous,” he seethes. “Did the vet just decide to not show up?”

“He’s on an emergency visit in the field.”

It’s just one more thing that shows just how caring Owen is. It’s not an emergency visit actually, but a scheduled visit to Mrs. Keith’s house to see to her aging poodle. The elderly woman is homebound with a list of illnesses herself, but providing that information to the growling man in front of me wouldn’t make any difference.

“I can make you an appointment for later this afternoon,” I suggest.

“Can you keep the dog, and I can swing by and get him after work?”

“Sure.” I reach to the side and grab a clipboard with the appropriate paperwork. “There’s a twenty-five-dollar boarding fee. I’ll just need you to—”

“Bullshit!” he roars.

My face is schooled with impassivity. If this man thinks yelling and causing a scene will get him his way, he’s barking up the wrong damn tree. Surly men with anger issues aren’t new to me, and if a two-hundred-and-fifty-pound drunk biker with a god complex doesn’t make me quake in my shoes, this asshole won’t either.

“Sir, if you can’t be respectful, I’ll have to ask you to leave.”

“Listen here you little bitch,” he begins, leaning over the counter in an attempt to double his intimidation tactic.

“Is there a fucking problem?”

Sighing in frustration, I peer around the customer to see TJ standing in the doorway of the clinic. He hasn’t even bothered to remove his cut, but I haven’t had the chance to talk to him since I started working here. The last thing I need is Owen finding out exactly where I was raised. He doesn’t seem the type to understand anything pertaining to the club.

“I asked you a question?”

The man swings around, ready to unleash his anger on my brother, but stops short when he sees TJ glaring at him. TJ’s stature doesn’t make him very intimidating, but the rumors that run rampant in town regarding the club forces most people to keep their distance. The leather cut on my brother’s back is enough of a warning.

The man’s jaw snaps shut.

“I…ugh.” The man has the balls to turn back and look in my direction for support. I merely cock an eyebrow at him. “I’ll come back later.”

TJ walks a few steps closer as the man reaches down to grab the handle on the portable kennel.

“You’ll find another vet,” TJ corrects.

“That’s what I meant.” The guy’s voice has risen an octave, and he can’t seem to get out of here fast enough.
