#Chapter 37: Demolition

last update Last Updated: 2022-03-14 13:17:07

After lunch, a bunch of people arrived dressed in paint-splattered jeans and t-shirts. I looked at the group in surprise as Matt looked up at them. He checked his watch.

“Good to see you all back. You can start in the bar area for now.”

They nodded and went towards the area, carrying long rolls of plastic.

I looked at him strangely, “What’s going on?”

He smirked, “Renovations.”

The people stood around for a moment putting up long plastic sheets and putting up ladders beyond the curtain, but they didn’t seem to have any materials with them. The ladders were placed in a strange way that seemed to have nothing to do with where it would be most useful for them to be.

It was as if they were staging the area to be seen not to be used.

“What are you going to do with the bar?”

Matt frowned, “Nothing.”

“What?”

Matt shrugged, “They&rsq

Good thing they started the demolition.

There is something therapeutic about breaking crap that holds you back or brings up bad memories. I will totally agree with this. How did I guess that Mordecai would show up...

    Matt’s POVI adjusted my cuffs and turned to Grace."Grace," I said. "Come with me."She nodded. I went to the office to grab the file and a few others filled with documents. I'd been preparing for Mordecai's visit and handed the stack to her."You won't have to do anything but observe and hand me the dark blue file when prompted. Play the scene as you feel it."Grace took the file and nodded, squaring her shoulders and putting on a demure smile.She'd been around Mordecai before, but the glimmer of fear in her eyes made me wonder if there was more to Mordecai's visit than Club Heaven.I led her to the front foyer where Mordecai was looking around as if he was curious. I knew better.He wanted information. He might not have told Ben about my actions here in Midnight, but he would soon.It would be good to start driving a wedge between them as soon as possible."Alpha Mordecai," I greet

    Mordecai’s POV“Take me home,” I growled at the driver.The man pulled away from the curb easily as I glared down at the pages. Matt’s words echoed in my ears.Goodwill and all that.The little bastard was smart. Too smart. I’d told Ben a thousand times over not to waste his time with that dumbass, Wade. Matt was his mother’s child.My lips twitched; a new wave of fury washed through me. I was so furious I could barely read the pages in the folder. Felix was a smart bastard, conniving to take my offer only after he’d already sold Club Heaven. He’d saved his ass and still made it so I couldn’t have Cindy.His fucking debts were of my making. I had it all planned to have Club Heaven firmly in hand. Repossessing the pretty little catamite I’d sent to Club Heaven and finally getting my hands on Cindy were just added benefits.I was certain that Matt knew

    Glenda’s POVI walked out of my room and found Matt and Grace in the kitchen. She was seated at the bar, eating quietly. Matt was leaning against the bar, drinking coffee. I didn’t get the sense that they’d been talking or anything, but the sight of them made my heart clench.Alyssa seemed restless and I tried to shove the feeling away. I was being ridiculous. Sure, Matt needed me because I had experience with the truth of the pack brothels, but right now, Grace was the best source of information in Midnight for my goals.“Good morning,” she greeted as I walked towards the bar. Matt looked at me, looking over me before giving me a small smile.“You look rested.”I averted my gaze, “Yeah.”After destroying so much of the first floor with the others, I had slept like a baby. Matt still hadn’t told me what Mordecai said while they were in the parlor or why he seemed to

    I couldn’t believe what he’d said. Only Grace? The sexiest thing he could find? Grace’s eyes were wide as the attendant stepped plainly into view and stammered out that she would check to make sure. She scurried off as Grace eyed Grace.Alyssa growled, Why is he looking at her like that? Say something, Glenda!“What is that supposed to mean?” I asked, keeping my tone subdued even though I wanted to scream at him.He wouldn’t even be getting involved with the underground of Midnight if it weren’t for me, and what was he thinking trying to cut me out of the evening. Anger and a bit of fear went through me as I looked at Grace.She was a prostitute, or she had been, but she didn’t have the scars I did. I would almost bet that her wolf was still perfectly active. Maybe all of my hard work and the little glimpses of interest I’d seen in him were wrong.My stomach turned uncomfortabl

    The drive back from the mall was quiet. Matt had seemed a bit upset about the way the argument turned out, but he hadn’t let it show much. We’d gone from dress shopping to picking up new shoes, a tuxedo for Matt, jewelry, and finally a beauty supply store as I didn’t like other people doing my hair.It reminded me too much of being primped and polished for clients back at Larry’s. Grace seemed grateful that she wouldn’t have to sit in a salon chair either and he browsed the shelves quietly. I picked up some new dye, including a bright magenta color when I saw a familiar line of nail polishes near the back of the store.I didn’t think they were still being made three years after the fall of my pack. Everlasting was the only brand Fluorite sold gem dust and pigments used for nail polish to before it fell. I picked up a bottle of my favorite shade and checked the label.“Ah, you have an eye for quality,” one of the at

    I couldn’t breathe. I wasn’t sure how to respond to her statement. I swallowed and tried to think of the easiest place to start.“What makes you think that?”She looked at me, her eyes narrow and glinting with fury.“My father would never join those people that conspired against our alpha. He’s not a traitor!”I frowned looking down at the photo then back at Grace. I picked up the pen and took note, “It seems like we should have added you to the interview list.”If I had known that Grace had also come from an ambushed pack, I would have made it a point to interview her. Then again, I wasn’t entirely sure that she would have told me anything if this hadn’t popped up.Her eyes widened and she winced, “He knows where I am from.”And when did you have that discussion?I thought it had just been in her records or something, but I pushed that thoug

    The morning of the opening, Grace made French Toast, another thing I had never had before. Matt swore it was the best French Toast he’d ever had and Alyssa had nearly whined with annoyance.We could make it too if we knew how.I scoffed, What is your deal? Alyssa huffed, The alpha is building a pack. We should be his luna.My face heated at the thought. Me as Matt’s Luna? The idea was ridiculous. Matt left again to handle something else and get a haircut for the night. He left his card with me.“Go to the salon or something,” Matt said, “There’s one downstairs.”I looked at the card as he left and tossed it on the table. It was a sweet gesture, but looking at Grace’s apprehensive expression, I knew she wasn’t interested in going to the salon downstairs.“How about an at-home spa day?” I asked, “I’m not interested in being poked an

    Matt’s POVLucas growled at the sight of Renda walking down the hallway. If he was so excited, and I was almost dizzy with how quickly my blood was rushing south, I could only imagine who else would have such a reaction to her.I almost regretted picking the pink, not that the pink didn’t look amazing on her. It was erotic in all the right ways as her pale skin showed through the fabric. When I saw it, I had wondered if it was about the same color as her nipples.Seeing it on her, I was almost certain it was.People would be seeing her like this and I was the one who put it on her. This was going to play hell on my self-control, but if I was weak to it, so would every other man in the room be and that was the point.The price of the gown, the quality, and everything she was wearing would set her apart from the women who were in the crowd as party favors. The shade of her hair was complimentary rather than loud and added

    My legs felt shaky and everything was bigger. I realized quickly that I had shifted. I stretched and twisted. The shiny saber coat of fur lifted my heart.I didn’t think I’d ever be able to shift. I felt Alyssa fully settled and solid in my mind as I turned to look at Matt. His eyes were wide as I went up to him and rubbed my face against his leg.“You’re beautiful,” he said, kneeling and stroking my head. “Can you shift back, so we can talk?”I whined. Alyssa panicked and he chuckled, hushing me. He cupped my jaw and rubbed at the spots of tension there. It felt so good. I didn’t know what else to do but practically purr at him.“Take it easy. You don’t have to turn back right now,” he said. “I know it can take some getting used to.”He shifted and Alyssa sat up in alarm as we looked at Lucas and Matt through her eyes. He was so much bigger than us, stronger. His eyes glowed with red light. He could break my neck with such ease. I should have been scared, but I knew he would never hu

    Glenda’s POVMatt was different. His eyes were clear and his jaw was set, but he hadn’t said much of anything to me other than I needed to dress nicely.I got in the car in a nice dress and heels. He was in a three-piece suit. His hair was styled, and he looked as though he needed some space, yet he didn’t release my hand.“I’m giving a press conference,” he said. “About… everything.”He turned to look at me, “Do you want to speak about Fluorite?”I looked away and shook my head. I didn’t think I’d ever be ready to speak in such a public way about what happened.“Do you want me to talk about it?”I nodded.He squeezed my hand, “Will you stand with me?”I looked at him and squeezed his hand back, “Yes.”Some of the tension bled out of him and he pulled me close, “I have to tell you the basics before we get there so you aren’t surprised. I’m sorry I couldn’t talk about it. I just…”“It’s okay,” I said, turning into his arms. “I know it’s… been a lot. He’s dead.”“Mordecai was my real fa

    My ears were ringing.My mother’s video had answered a lot of questions, but not enough. My mother and Mordecai were mates. Due to some political issues on the west coast and Ben’s military force around Warhammer territory, Sharon had to make a decision: the people of Warhammer or her mate.Sharon hadn’t rejected Mordecai, but the distance and the ruse of pretending to be Ben’s mate wore on them both. Mordecai had been dying long before Sharon died, and if Ben had waited just a few more years, he wouldn’t have had to have her killed.Sharon and Mordecai had shared one night together after Sharon and Ben were married. That was the night she conceived Joel and I. She had me and Joel registered in Midnight when we were three, just after Ben came home with Sonia to protect us because she figured that Ben would realize they were mates and start to suspect that we weren’t his sons. That was the same time that Mordecai found out that we were his sons.Soon after, Ben sent her to the mental h

    Matt shifted and pulled the door open. Ben was just on the other side, kicking Mordecai’s body aside. He was still breathing. I could hear his breath rattling out of him as I fumbled for my phone to call the paramedics.Matt said that Warhammer Guard was no more than five minutes away.Mordecai had to have five minutes.Matt looked like he didn’t know what to do as ben approached him. He was staring at Mordecai, shocked pale as Ben pointed a gun at him.“You’ve caused me nothing but trouble your entire fucking life,” Ben said.“You…” Matt breathed. “He… You… can’t… I…”Ben laughed again, “I didn’t think you were Mordecai’s type.”Matt turned, his eyes flashing brilliant red and I heard Lucas in his voice, “Shut your mouth, you sick fuck.”Ben stumbled back and his gun lowered just enough not to be aimed at Matt any longer. Alyssa pushed to the forefront of my mind. I felt her reaching for the dagger beneath my shirt. I heard Tzipporah’s voice in the back of my hand and knew what was a

    Matt’s POV The restaurant Ben chose was an upscale little place away from a main city. The entire building had been emptied out. Uriel warned us that Ben had armed people waiting around the area, but just outside their area of operation, I had stationed Warhammer Guard. If anyone wasn’t making it out of this alive it was Ben, Sonia, and Wade. “Matt, it’s so nice to see you,” Sonia said. “You should really come see your stepmother more.” I didn’t respond to her, “Odd that you’d bring her.” “I wanted it to be clear.” It was a ruse. He was hoping to keep the gunfire down from our side because she was here. “I figure the women can stay here and get acquainted,” Ben nodded upstairs, “I’ve had our table set up upstairs.” I turned to Glenda and pressed a kiss to her cheek. “Don’t eat anything,” I whispered, drawing back. I ushered her to her seat and pushed her up to the table before following Mordecai and Ben who were putting on airs about how close they were. Wade glared at me wit

If I didn’t have to stand in front of a news reporter again in life it would be too soon, but I was glad for it.Mordecai sputtered and laughed, “What a fucking dumbass!”I looked at him, “What’s going on?”He offered his phone, “Ben’s a dumber son of a bitch than I thought!

    Ben’s POVSonia whimpered, clutching at my leg and rubbing her face against my leg, trying to restrain and convince me to spare the ungrateful little whelp on the ground. I should have listened to Mordecai years ago about Matt. While he was headstrong, had I kept a hold on him he would have never crossed me like this.At the least, he wouldn’t have been caught and cost me so much. Wade’s ambition overrode his sense.“Have you anything to say for yourself, you little shit? Huh?”He choked and curled up. His injuries from

    He shrieked in agony and rolled off me. The sticky heat of his blood coated my hand. The metallic stench of it filled the air and I turned, screaming, driving my knife into whatever part of him I could reach. He choked and cried out. The scent of the dungeon filled my nose. Blood and more blood came spurting out and I remembered the sight of my blood pooled beneath me, spreading across the ground.Two, three, four, five…He choked and thrashed. His body wiggled and jiggled, but I kept going, counting each thrust of my dagger as I heard his voice in my memories offering me candy, taunting me, ordering me to serve him. I heard Armina screaming in pain and fear. I heard Angelia whimpering. I heard the last breath rattling out of a young girl whose face I could no longer remembe
