Human vs Wolves

I drive around town for a bit and the SUV continues to follow me. A big part of me is sure it is the company following through with the phone call from earlier, but a part of me is not buying that. The company could easily take me out rather than follow me around, but if it isn't them then who the hell would be following me. I make sure to make friends as I go along and any enemies I encounter, I try to eliminate them. It sounds really bad, but usually enemies are tied to the company and it is either their lives or mine.

Every turn I take, the SUV is not that far behind me. Every stop I make, they are sure to park away, but close enough to see what I'm doing. I cruise by the post office, but I don't wait for long. I still haven't figured out how I would or could set up cameras so they can keep an eye on the box for me. This is where Katie could come in. Maybe I could use the technology at Nemes to tap into the cameras that were already there, but how would I do that without giving myself away?

I end up back at my place and when I get inside, I check the window again. Just as I figured, the SUV is parked in the same place I saw it the first time earlier today. As I watch the window, I see the driver side door open and a man steps out. He looked to be almost as tall as the other man, maybe a few inches shorter. He has black hair that was brushed into a ponytail. He was, also, wearing a black shirt, denim pants, and black boots. He looks towards my window and I'm able to jump out of eyesight right before he catches me looking. Who the hell are these guys? I check my phone and it is pretty late; well past midnight. I drove them around for a while in hopes that they would give up. Maybe it is time to have some fun with them.

I leave my apartment and head for the roof. Once I get there, I crawl towards the edge of the building so I can catch a peek at my stalkers. They look like they are looking for me. How they hell is it possible that they noticed me leaving my place? I continue to watch them to see what they would do. They split up, with one going around the left side of the building which is perfect because I plan to climb down the fire escape which is on the right. The other guy is still searching the front of the building. I, stealthy, make it to the right side of the building and start to climb down the fire escape. Just as my feet hit the ground, I hear shuffling to the left of me. They couldn't have followed me could they? The alley behind the building is super dark and I can't see anything past my hand in front of my face and I can barely see that.

I take 2 steps back and 2 steps to the left with my eyes closed so I can concentrate on the sounds around me. Without warning, I use my right foot and leg to send a roundhouse kick to my left. My foot connects and I hear a groan then a thump on the ground. I feel hands trying to grab me so I lean all the way forward and extend my left leg back fast and hard and I feel it connect to something and hear another groan. I hear movement in front of me and feel a hand on my left arm. I quickly move it back and send my right fist making another connection. This goes on for a bit, every time I connect on one side, I feel or hear movement on the next, and connect on the other side. Before I know it, I'm very much out of breath and I can hear heavy breathing and groans around me, but no movement. "Tell the company they can go to hell! If they want me, they need to come for me once and for all." I take off running to my right around to the front of the building. I let myself in and back up to my apartment. I just issued a challenge of sorts and I'm curious to know if it will be accepted or not.

Leon is working on pulling the phone and internet records of my mother. I hate to have to take it there, but I'm pretty sure she is the reason for Alpha Kent's interference in things. Once it is proven true, I'm going to have to figure out what to do. Normally there would be time in the dungeons or banishment, but it depends on what information was given. The issue here is that this is my mother. As insufferable as she is, she still gave birth to me and raised me. It isn't the easiest thing to consider a punishment for her. Anything that is done to her will greatly impact my dad. I'm torn and don't know what to do.

I kept to myself the rest of Saturday either in my office or in my room. Lana and Gemma knew that I just needed time alone to process everything. I kept thinking about the video of Justin. I don't have an explanation for what I saw. There is no way that he should have been able to do what he did as a human. Vampires are extremely strong and when a human comes across one, they are either turned or are used as a food source. I have never heard of a human being able to incapacitate a vampire to any degree and then be able to escape them. If I didn't know Justin, I would have thought that he was a wolf the way he handled the vampire.

I can't sleep. No matter what I do, I can't get comfortable and my mind won't turn off. I look at the time and it is 3 am. There is a knock on my door. Who the hell is that at this hour? "What?!"

"Uh, Alpha, you are needed in your office." This better be important. I get up and head out the room. The warrior at my door looks scared, as if he is going to be severely reprimanded. He steps out of my way and I head down to my office. I walk inside and see Markus and Tobey. They both look like they have been in a war. Lana is sitting at my desk laughing her ass off. Markus and Tobey take one look at me and hang their heads.

"What did I miss?" I look at all three of them waiting for an explanation. Lana stops laughing long enough to look at the men.

"Well boys?" No one says anything. "I come home from a night out and I notice these two struggling to get out of the car. They both look like they have gone a few rounds. When I asked what happened…..I…..I mean….." Lana starts cracking up again, having trouble catching her breath.

"Someone tell me now!" I look between Markus and Tobey impatiently waiting to be filled in. "You two are supposed to be sitting on someone, yet you are here. So…..?" Markus clears his throat.

"He…..he must have noticed us following him. He…..well…..I mean….." I'm getting fed up at this point. It should take this long to say what is going on. Tobey is looking at me and he must be able to notice the anger rising in me.

"Uh…..he beat us up, Alpha," he says quickly and drops his head. I look at Markus who slightly nods to confirm and look back at Tobey. These two are a few of my strongest warriors. I placed them on Justin so that if he encountered another vampire, he'd have adequate backup. A human was able to best two of my top warriors? They seem greatly healed, but one can tell that they took a good beating. Had they been human themselves, they would have ended up in the hospital.

"So a human was able to topple two of my best warriors. Is this what you are telling me?" They both nod at me. "Did you two even get a hit in?!" I throw my hands up in exasperation and this causes Lana to start laughing again. I shake my head. Clearly I have no idea who this supposed human is, but I need to find out. There is only one way to get the answers I need. "Lana, wake Gemma up and let her know she is in charge while you rest. I need to go." I turn to walk out of the office.

"Where are you going at this time of night?" I turn to look at Lana.

"I'm going to get some answers."
