Chapter 3. Do you think Lou would fire me?
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Mj took a deep breath and explained the morning to Beth so fast she thought she might faint. She explained that she was late and had to go pick up the cutlets that she missed this morning and how she dropped the keys and a greek god made lewd comments about her ass so she confronted him about it. “Good night” Beth began to say as she fanned herself with her hand “that's a hell of a morning and all dear, but what does that have to do with your head? And no, I don't think Lou would fire you for that” she said with a warm smile.
“Well” Mj winced at the thought of telling Beth what she did next, not because she didn't think she was in the right “because that douche definitely deserved it” she thought. But because she grew up with Beth, and she had tried really hard to stay out of the way since Beth had always been the one to bail her out of trouble. “What! Beth said with a soft but serious tone Mj knew was her being both worried and preparing for the worst.
“I kinda head butted him” Mj said sheepishly as she looked up at Beth's face to gauge what the woman might say next. Beth’s mouth fell open for what seemed like a long time before she threw her head back in a laugh that could be heard across the country.
“No way sweetie, I bet you Lou is having it out with that creep right now” she said with a matter of fact tone. “Come on, let's get you an ice pack for that forehead before it swells anymore and I will have the guys in the back get the pallet in the truck for you.”
“Fuck man I knew it was gonna be a bunch of shit” Mj said as the two of them walked toward the small kitchen to get some ice.
When Mj was done letting Beth fuss over her she went back out to the truck and there sat a large styrofoam barrier now stuffed in the bed of Lou’s old truck. There were two guys standing at the back of the truck smoking and joking with each other. “Thanks guys” Mj hollered as she waved at them. “Sure thing” one of them hollard back “oh, by the way it's packed in ice so don't worry about time” the other one mumbled through his lit cigarette.
Mj nodded and climbed behind the driver side of the beat up old truck and drove back to Lou’s shop.
When she pulled into the joint parking lot sandwiched between Lous shop and a tailor who worked in the next building Mj’s heart skipped a little. She knew Beth was probably right that Lou wouldn't really be upset enough to fire her, she had punched out rude ass customers before. She even once slapped a woman with a nice T bone when she told Mj she smelled like unwanted gutter trash. And Lou just laughed it off and told her to get back to work.
Mj took a deep breath and climbed out of the truck. She opened the side door and yelled “Hay Lou! I got all the fuckin meat you ordered but I dont know where the fuck we are supposed to put it all, you could feed an army with all these cutlets”. Mj started to unlatch the bed of the truck when she heard footsteps behind her.
She leaned into the bed to unfasten one of the tie straps so they could unload the pallet in sections instead of trying to pull it out of the truck in one go.
“Hay Lou, look I'm sorry about earlier, but that asshat just really pissed me off you know? I mean yea I was bent over when he opened the door but does that seriously give him the right to shout disgusting shit like that?” She had now climbed mostly into the back of the truck and was struggling with one of the straps. Mj was on her knees yanking on a knot that had been tied in the strap for god only knows what reason. “Fuck!” she exclaimed in frustration. “Hay Lou, this god damn strap is all knotted to hell and back, can you come help me untie it?”
She knew the old man was standing there and she heard him walk out.
“Dammit Lou” Mj gritted her teeth as she gave one last pull out of frustration.
All of the sudden the strap broke at the knot and Mj flew backwards, she tried to catch herself but that made things worse she only launched herself backwards and stumbled into a hard almost immovable statue like figure. The statue reached forward and wrapped its arms around her and Mj knew then it wasn't Lou. The man was huge, sure, but he was very squishy in the middle and this being behind her was anything but.
Mj tried to wriggle free but the large fleshy restraints that held her did not give. She managed to wiggle around and see the face of the person she had assumed was Lou.
Mjs body went numb. Her legs went limp and she inhaled so much air she thought she might choke on it if she didn't exhale slowly. “An asshat hu”? The low delicious voice hummed, Mj was horrified the man from earlier was still here. And to make matters worse he was now holding her! “Get the fuck off me you creep” Mj hollered as she tried her best to get free.
The olive toned god of a man holding her did not put her down nor did he fall prey to any of her jabs or headbutts and now he was grinning. “Now in all fairness kitten” he purred “you fell into my arms, I just didn't want to hurt those tender peaches of yours”. The words rolled off his tongue like velvet and it made Mj blush

Mj could feel her ears turn hot and her cheeks flush and now she was furious. “What the hell gave this man the right?” She thought and decided to try an old trick she learned in her early years as a bartender. Some drunk asshole would make an advance more than once or confront her in the parking lot after shift when she was alone and she couldn't always overpower them physically, a few times they had grabbed her and she couldnt get free and had actually started to panic. But for whatever reason Mj always just became very calm and focused like she knew exactly what to do to get herself free of the situation. She had figured out that most of the time all these dirty fu

The others didn’t move an inch, they had no expression other than the wide eyed stare they each had locked on the man still holding onto Mj by the seat of her pants. “Please!” Mj began to plead quietly. She had stopped struggling in an act of defeat and at this point had all but fallen to her knees. Lou still wasn’t moving and Mj still wasn’t sure who all of these men were.

Dante walked up to Mj and gently loomed over her. “We have not been properly introduced” he paused as if waiting for her to run or slap him. Mj was so overrun at the moment the only thing she could do was wipe her eyes and stare at the man in front of her “You can call me Dante” he began “and these four clowns are harmless they just got a little over excited” he had started to come much closer to her now and once again Mj could feel little sparks of electricity pop all over her body, like internal fireworks.

Dante stood with his back against the front door, positioned so he could watch his little obsession work.

Outside Mj was doing her best to level her anger and nausea while she cleaned bird nests and egg leftovers out of the sign letters above the butcher shop, she so very much just wanted this day to end but unfortunately she still had her shift at the bar. “Luckily Lou was sending her home after this so she could take a much needed shower and she would even have a few extra hours to herself before she dove once again into the pit of other people and their bullshit” she thought.

Mj crouched low as the two men on the ground looked up toward her and the one they called Tanner waved at her like an excited child in a parade. “Come on down doll, we don't bite much” he paused before the last word. Ace punched Tanner in the arm “Look we don't blame you for being standoffish but we really wont hurt you and I think Lou was looking for you anyway, if you would like we can help you down but if not we understand and won't get in your way”

“It's nice to meet you Sam,” Mj said partially ignoring the others, she looked directly at Ace and spoke through gritted teeth“As long as you dont ever fucking put your hands on me again we can call it good”. Mj darted her eyes to the man they called Ed “Ed….nice to meet you” then she looked at Tanner.

Dante was furious,”how could this happen? He needed to get his mind clear and get his wolf under control. He would head to the slaughterhouse and talk to Mara about what had been happening.” He thought “and maybe he might even be able to get some information about his little kitten since Mara lived in Lowder. NO! What the fuck was wrong with him why couldnt he stop thinking about that woman for more than a few minutes.” Dante was borderline irate with his wolf and himself. “It was like he needed to see her again to be able to settle his mind. He didn't even want to talk, he just wanted to see her to see what it was his wolf thought was so amaz

******* I will upload Chapter 1 under Legacy of the wolf but it will be a seperate book, Legacy of the wolf: War of the Wolves******** The haunted sounds of a wolf's broken-hearted song lit up the darkness inside Dante’s mind, just like it had done every night since he left his mate asleep in their bed almost a year ago. Dante turned his head on a swivel in the obscurity, even though he knew he was still asleep. “Why do you do this to me every night, Theo! Do you enjoy torturing me?” Dante spat the words into the darkness and was only answered by the forlorn echo of a pathetic whimper as Theron’s vast body sulked into view. The normally large majestic beast now looked ragged and old, his head hung low between his shoulders and the wolf walked with such an exaggerated bow in his back that his knuckles drug the ground like lifeless attachments, “you torture us all, ignorant boy.” Dante scowl
Legacy of the Wolf EPILOGUE
In the months following Dante’s leaving the pack Mj learned he surrendered himself to Alpha Talia as a peace offering for the pack member Mj killed in the challenge, and that she had not only accepted his offer but had agreed to make him the Alpha after their mating bond.Mj had kept herself busy in the kitchens, pulling every shift she could to fill her days. She tried several times to pack her clothes and ask Azreal to move to a different room but she just couldn't tear herself away from the fading scent that still lingered, and as much as it broke her heart to be near him she couldn't make herself leave him the way he left her.Mj no longer sat at the Alpha’s table for meals she simply ate between kitchen shifts, the only time she saw any of the other hunters was during training and even then she would be cordial dur

Mj knew the guest house was code for a dungeon or prison but she had not expected it to actually be underground, Azreal had opened a door in the ground surrounded by bushes and guards with spot lights lining the perimeter. The hatch had led them down a stone staircase to a galley hallway that had singular cells lining it, the doors were metal with small slit windows and the entire place felt cold, as Mj reached out to touch a door Azreal grabbed her hand, “mercury and silver Mj...I wouldn't unless you wear gloves.” Mj pulled her hand back and Azreal motioned toward a room at the end of the galley, “she is behind the door on the end,” Mj took a few steps forward and Azreal touched her shoulder, causing her to turn her head to look at him. “She was part of this pack Mj, and she betrayed us all...her fate is upon you little sister, it was agreed by the pack as a whole.” Mj looked at Azreal and then be

Dante caught up to Mj quickly and although he could see the tears streaming from her face as they ran he didn't try to stop her, he could feel her desperate anger and hurt, the feeling surprised him a little because Mj had not been brought up on the stories of wolves but she still felt such an intense connection to her own ancestors she was grieving them now. After running for almost three miles Mj’s sprinting came to a slow stop and she turned around, burying her face into Dante’s chest. Mj wrapped her arms around his waist and cried silently into the hollow of Dante’s torso before she leaned back and let a blood curdling howl explode from her chest. Dante squeezed her tightly and they both looked toward the slumbering moon before releasing another cry to the listening sky above. Dante pulled Mj back into his chest and kissed the top of her head, “

**TRIGGER WARNING**Some of the events discussed in this chapter are NOT fictional and are extremely violent, reader beware Dante gingerly opened the door to his room and the crisp chirp of the first birds of the morning made it painfully clear he had been gone all night. After shutting the door he turned and his heart sank into his feet, Mj was asleep on his side of the bed with a book splayed open in one hand and his pillow clutched tightly to her chest with the other. Dante toed off his shoes and softly padded toward the bed with his prize held gingerly between his fingers, as Dante approached the bed he lifted his hand and began to stroke Mj’s face gingerly with a few white long stem lilies. The soft white curved flowers brushed across Mj’s cheek and she smiled slightly as a satisfied hum left her throat and she curled tighter Dante’s pillow, he

Briella did not need much time to corroborate the intruders story, they were also able to keep her identity a complete secret by simply blindfolding him while Dante and Lila rattled off questions they had already asked him twenty or so times and waiting for Briella to either nod her head yes that he was calm and truthful or shake it no that his thermal temperature gave away dishonesty or fear. After about half an hour of back and forth Lila began to sway on her feet and sigh with fatigue, Mj slid her hands underneath Lila’s elbows and leaned her chest into the Beta’s back. Lila hummed in appreciation as she leaned into her newest pack member to relieve some of the pressure on her feet, “would it be weird if I offered to be your chair.” Mj almost whispered in her ear and Lila pursed her lips as she hummed small giggles. “Normally I would say don't worry about me, bu

As Theron moved effortlessly through the trees he noticed that Mj’s body was trembling so he pulled her closer, wrapping both arms tightly around as much of her body as he could and tucking his head over his arms to warm her with his breath. The feel of the large beasts fur snaking around Mj’s body like a safety bubble had her skin alive and almost hypersensitive. The cold air was so intense it almost hurt as it blasted past her skin while they darted past trees moving toward the packhouse, Mj noticed that the pounding in her head seemed to ease as she snuggled in closer to Theron’s body and as she dug her fingers into his fur the electric feel of the skin beneath earned her a pacified grumbling pur from the enormous creature cradling her in its arms. The vibration from Theron’s satisfied purrs were causing more intensely sensitive sensations to wash over Mj and she began to almost

Mj was sleepy but she knew that danger was close, and as Theron set her on the ground she opened her eyes to a sight that drained all the color from her face. Walkers were laying dead and dismembered on the ground while the hunters advanced over their bodies like they were sandbags, Moxie had shifted and was hanging from a tree while Ace and Jay were still in human form but only barely. “You are not welcome to cause trouble during our full moon fire rouges...you will leave Quicksilver pack territory or you will be brought before the Alpha for judgment.” Mj watched Ace glance their way, “stay. Here.” Theron said to Mj before stalking closer to the still armed rouges, “You are not the only one who’s Alpha is an Original, you do not scare us and we are not rouge.” Theron growled and Mj felt the hair on her body stand on end as the wolf thrashed under her skin, she stro

Mj stood in front of the mirror for what seemed like an eternity, she had not noticed the continued bustling around her until the door opened again and a brush of cold air along with Lila’s tender touch brought her back to the room, “are you alright Mj?” Briella asked as Lila stood holding on to her elbow and looking at her like she expected an answer to a question Mj never heard. “Yea sorry...I’m just,” Briella cut her off “you are just so nervous I know...you could blot out the sun.” Lila rubbed Mj’s elbows soothingly and began to purr, “are you really that terrified of wearing a dress Mj...or is it the people?” Mj looked Lila in the eye and began to tremble, “I don't want him to see me like this,” she almost whispered and Lila squeezed her eyebrows together “who...Ace, the commander wont tease you and if he does then I will put him on bathroom clean up tonight
