WTF are you doing here

" I can't work there that place smells like bleach and sweat." Brandy screeched " I'm telling your dad that you're trying to...What the fuck are you doing here?"She suddenly yelled , obviously not talking to me, Skyler, or Damien.

Catching my attention and needless to say peeking my curiosity." You know him?" I ask, swinging my head around to face her.

" Uh..No, I don't know him but I met him at the old tavern the night of your .. Al.. your party." She said cautiously, her eyes darting around nervously from me to Skyler then eventually landed on Stan the scumbag.

She eyed him curiously her face puckered into a sneer as she twisted her hands together in front her like she was nervous for some reason. And I'm way more then curious to find out why.

" Brandy, I called her name to get her focus back on me. And when she snapped her head around I ask her." Did this guy try to do something to you up or follow you home that night? Did he threaten you in anyway?exactly what kind of contact did you have with him?"

" Uh.."

" Don't tell him shit, your a grown ass woman. It's none of his fucking business."Stan shouted pulling against the zip-ties holding his hands together and trying to shack off the hold Skyler had on his t-shirt.

"Take him to the interrogation room." I sent Skyler, through the mind link.I needed to talk to Brandy without his fucking noisy ass yelling at her.

Skyler nodded pushing Stan on down the narrow hallway and inside the interrogation room then closed the door behind him.

I then took the keys from the wall in front of the cell and released Brandy gesturing for her to come out. "Follow me ." I ordered, and waited for her to pick up her high heels off the floor before leading her to the break room.

" Set" I ordered,with a touch of my Alpha aura just to keep her in line. The girls like a ticking time bomb you never know when she's going to explode into one of her crazy rants.

But with a little nudge to her wolf she gingerly took a seat and waited for my next order."Now tell me what happened that night and don't leave anything out." I ordered , using another touch of my Alpha aura. Just enough to let her know I'm not playing around and I don't mind using an Alpha command if I need to.

Brandy groaned " Ple.. Please Zack, st..stop I'll tell you." She pleaded,with tears in her eyes.

I eased up on the pressure giving her a warning " Okay, Brandy now this shit is serious I know you're a little hard headed but you're not stupid. That guy's human and you know there's only one reason he's in a werewolf dungeon. Now tell me everything." I said calmly.

She nodded " I, I understand" she panted looking at me cautiously."Well..Uh. after I left your room and you ignored me when I tried to.. to talk to you.. I.. I milled around and found Skyler but he was uh.. talking to Sara and Cara. And I really needed to uh... you know.., you left me hanging." She babbled shifting her gaze from me to Damien. Who was setting at the other break table fiddling with his phone and didn't seem to be bothered by the conversation at all.

So I coaxed her to continue." Come on Brandy, tell me what else happened. I'm sure Damien's seen and done plenty. Look at the guy do you think you're the only one who would fuck him."

That caught Damien's attention and he looked up from his phone and frowned. But

Brandy shook her head " Uh.. no.." she stammered not daring to actually look at Damien. But Damien did give me a fuck you look and went back to fiddling with his phone.

"Go ahead, tell me everything." I coaxed, holding back the chuckle trying to bubble out my throat.

" Okay, okay.. so I seen Skyler was with Sara and Cara and knew he would be hanging out with with them for the rest of the night. So I milled around for a little while and bumped into Lizzie. She told me her father was unsuccessful in forming some kind of alliance with you and, and it embarrassed her. Then she ask if I had car so that we could get out of there and relax. Well we changed clothes and drove up to the old tavern. Then we went on inside and set down at a table the place wasn't crowded maybe about thirty people because most of the pack was hanging out in town around the football field celebrating. So we ordered some drinks but when Audrey brought our drinks and I tried to pay her. She wouldn't take my money and nodded towards a group of guys setting at the end of the bar and said they had already paid for them. One of the guys was the guy Skyler just took into that room. Then him and one of his friends came over to the table to talk to us. I believe his name is Stan and his friends name was Mark. So anyway they bought us a couple more drinks and we danced a couple of times. Then we just set around the table and talked a little bit, you know normal flirting bar chitchat." Brandy babbled on,but she wasn't really saying anything interesting yet. So I threw my hand up to stop her and hopefully redirect her in a way that might be more helpful.

"So when you say they flirted and engaged in normal bar chitchat did they ask any questions about our kind. Or perhaps give any hints that they may know what the two of you are?" I ask hoping Brandy would remember at least part of the conversation.

"No, it was just normal human stuff like if we were from around here, and if we worked,or if we were students,if we had boyfriends,or kids. You know normal stuff humans ask when their trying to pick you up."Brandyreplied sounding a little confused . So I stopped her again before she cut out on another ramble.

"Okay," I said holding my hand up quickly asking my next question " So I know you can answer human questions in a bar but what about Elizabeth? Did she seem comfortable answering their questions and giving appropriate responses?"

Brandy nodded and continue on telling me what she could remember ."Yeah, I mean when that guy Stan ask what she was taking in school. She didn't blurt out that she was taking classes to learn how to manage a pack house. She told him she was taking family and consumer science classes. And when he ask if she had a boyfriend all she said was she wasn't interested in a relationship.Not that she was looking for her soulmate.But as far as anything else she told him besides she lived in Arizona I'm not really sure. Because Jake Watson came over to the table and ask if he could speak to me in private. So I followed Jake outside and he ask me if I might be able to put in a good word for him to join Skyler's club. You know, Jake is a professional stunt man in the movies. He also works for some of the movie stars as a bodyguard when he's in Hollywood. And apparently one of the stars he was guarding took him to Skyler's club and Jake wanted to become a member. Anyway I started talking to Jake and decided to go back to his condo with him. But before I left I went back inside and found Lizzie still setting at the table talking to that Stan guy. I knew he could drop her off at the gate on his way back to Juneau where he said he lived.But I gave her my car keys anyway so that she could come back to the pack house by herself if she didn't like the guy."

I rubbed my forehead where it was beginning to hurt from trying to sort out any useful information from Brandy's rambling then plowed into another question praying Brandy wouldn't go off track again."So, did you see Elizabeth in the morning and did she say anything about that Stan guy?" I ask, praying to the goddess for a straight forward response.

"No, not in the morning I stayed at Jake's condo until about three thirty that afternoon.I didn't get my keys back from Lizzie until that night.And all she said was that he was a one time and done type of guy."Brandy said, but flinched backwards when Damien suddenly appear at the table.

" Zack, I need to talk to you " He said, Nodding his head towards the door indicating that we needed privacy.

"Okay" I agreed, and followed Damien out the door. Because what ever this was about seemed important.

" How close are your warriors?" Damien whispered.

" I'll send them to the front gate" I whispered back and mind linked my guards to leave us. "They're out of ear shot ,what's up?"

" Good, so you know we all have an ability from our Lycan ancestors." Damien started, and I nodded for him to continue "Well mine is to know when someone is lying or just avoiding the truth for some reason. It's not a great weapon like turning into a true Lycan like I suspect one of the younger Alpha's will be able to do."

"Whoa, whoa, a Lycan ?" I stammered, staring at Damien in disbelief actually caught off guard by this little bit of information.Being able to turn into a true Lycan wouldn't help much in normal daily pack life. But if you needed to protect your pack calling wild wolves and being able to turn them into actual walking talking warriors to follow your command would be fucking awesome.

"Damien sighed and shook his head. "Look never mind that.It's just an old rumor and it will never pose any danger to either one of us or our pack.But I can tell you the girl in there has been telling you the truth. That is up until you ark her what her friend said about that guy Stan."

"I can issue an Alpha command,but a Lycan?"

I ask ,my mind still spinning from the bomb Damien just dropped that wouldn't let me think of anything else.

Damien sighed and rubbed his face a little forcefully. " Like I said it's just rumors and I gave you the answer if you just think about what I said and how you're Alpha abilities are affected by your bloodline. Remember I said it's no danger to us."Damien reminded me giving me a second to mull over what he said.

"Fucking Payton" I almost yelled from the realization but caught myself beforehand.

Damien shrugged " Like I said it's just a rumor that it's part of the Hunt abilities. And depending on if it's true or not it could definitely carry on to your children with both you and Andie having Pure Alpha Bloodlines and dominant wolves.I've seen Andie's wolf and it's not normal for a female Alpha and definitely not normal for a girl her size.The first time I seen Andie shift it was an uncontrolled shift just like young teenage male Alpha's go through before they can control their aggressive Alpha wolf. But get that out of your head for now. As for the girl in there I believe if you ask her again and applied a touch of pressure she will spill her guts. But ease up a bit,remember you have the power of the largest Pack in North America behind you now. Your aura is like a fucking raging forest fire, hot and suffocating." Damien advised, giving me a Pat on the shoulder.

Before we walked back into the break room where Brandy was setting at the table picking at her finger nail.

"Brandy, I called her name to get her attention and just as she looked up I applied a bit of pressure following Damien's advice to keep it to a minimum.

She groaned but didn't panic this time so I went ahead and ask her again. "Now Brandy I want you to think really hard and tell me if you can remember anything else that Elizabeth might have said about that guy Stan. I want to know everything you can remember."

" Everything, like our girl talk?"Brandy gasped like some kind of incessant little girl.

"Yes everything." I confirmed " You know there's nothing you can say that I hadn't already seen or done myself. So go ahead."

"Well okay.. but it's just girl talk, you know " Brandy babbled and continue "Uh let me see Lizzie said that he wasn't much into foreplay even stopping her in the middle of a blow job. Then they did it in the floor because she didn't want her dad to hear them. She said he fucked her hard and fast just chasing his release.Then after he came once he texted his friends to pick him up and snuck out through the back door in the middle of the night. She was pissed because he didn't let her cum and didn't even call her the next day. That's all she told me except for ranting about how he was a lame fuck and how she should have hooked up with a wolf instead of a human."

"That's it, did she say how she got him into the pack house?" I ask, just for Brandy to look at me like I said something stupid.

And perhaps I did because Brandy's answer was simple. " She was in my car, so nobody stopped her from driving through the gate. And I assume she used my keys to open the front door. Because it was late and there probably wasn't a door man there to receive guest. I know for a fact that it was after midnight when she came back to the Pack house. Because that's about the time I left the bar with Jake and she was still inside."
