Chapter: 1
Ten years, ten damn years has passed and I have been reduce from Death Dealer to a damn waitress at a crappy vamp bar full of assholes that want to grab my ass or make me they're woman. Argh by Corvinus I hate working in this place, the smell of beer-farts, cigs and outdated rock music. But a girl got to make a living to pay the bills, buy blood bags from a dealer who's probably giving me rat's blood.
"Shit. So this is gonna be for the rest of my immortal life." I sigh then I felt someone's hand touching my butt "Hey sweet-cheeks, how about you sit your fine ass on daddy's leg." he chuckled. I leaned down till where at eye level "I rather sit on a pile of shit than your leg asshole." I spit on his face and drove my fist to his jaw, knocking him out cold.
I walked away till I reached the counter and talked to my boss "I'm taking off Russell. I'll leave the cleanup to you." but he shook his head "Not yet Erika, you have one more customer to attend. Then you can leave." he ordered with his eyes turning blue "Fine, whatever." I hissed as he handed me two bottles of beers "So who's the customer?" I ask him "The dog that has his boots on the table and reading the paper. Arrogant fuck, can't believe those damn animals are still around." he huff.
It took me a while to process what he meant "Dog? You don't mean. A lycan?" he nodded "Yep. He just showed up when you were in the back getting ready. I'm surprised you didn't notice him yet, you sure have gotten lazy Erika, I'm ashamed to call you my employee and a Death Dealer." he finished cleaning the counter "Then why don't you get Jimmy to kick him out or better yet kill him then toss him out." I spat "I did. He and three others were gonna kill him but in three seconds the lycan killed them all and now I have no Bouncer. Now give him his damn beer so he can leave or find yourself a new job." he stormed off to the back, leaving me to attend to the enemy without any weapons.
I took a deep breath and headed towards the lycan's table while wishing I brought my gun to work today. I made it to the table with my guard ready and my foot ready for flight to deliver a deathblow to his face or hard enough for me to run like hell "Here's your beer's sir." he didn't responded, the newspaper is covering his face and for all I know he's making faces at me. I grew impatient "Hey! Your beers are here." again he's not bothering to look up to show his face.
My eye's turned blue with anger "Hey Dog-boy! What the hell is your problem?" I hiss, snatching the paper away and what I got was a shock to my system "You!" my eye's grew wide as he looks up at me with a mischievous smile "Yeah, me." he put his boots on the floor and leaned back on the couch "Hello kitten. Miss me?" he smiled at me, causing me to drop the bottles but he grabbed them before they hit the floor "Hey, be careful I paid for those." he teased and placed them on the table. I stammered like an idiot "Wha-wha-what the hell, are you doing here Quint?" I said still trying to regain my senses.
He got up while grabbing one of the beer from the table "I came to see my favorite girl." he took a swig "and beer." then took another. My instinct is screaming to kick him in the family jewels but I'm too focus on his appearance; his hair is shorter, he's a lot taller the last time we faced each other, he still wearing that goofy jacket but with his muscle all-wait snap out of it Erika, your acting like a schoolgirl crushing on the captain of the football team "Well now you see me so piss off." I stormed off, grabbed my purse and left the bar as fast as possible, leaving Quint in the dust.
I think I ran like five blocks to feel I have a safe distance from him "Why? Why after all these years he comes back?" I said to myself almost reaching to my apartment when suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder which causes me to throw a roundhouse kick to the direction of my assailant but it was caught "Nice kick. Glad you haven't lost your touch after all these years kitten." I grew angry trying to pry my leg off his grip "Let GO! Asshole." I yelled at him "Only if you say please." he grin "Grrrrr[sigh] please let go of me." he started rubbing his chin "Hmmm." my eyes turn blue "Come On!" I hissed "Alright, alright, don't get testy I was just joking." he let go of my leg.
When the feeling of my leg came back I stared at him "You're an ass as always." I spat "But you said you loved that part about me." he smiled causing me to blush "Shut up." I turned around and walked in to my apartment building not caring if he follows me or not.
I reached the door to my apartment and closed the door behind me. [sigh] I'm glad he didn't followed me there are so many thing swirling in my head that I can't think straight, a nice hot bath sounds good right about now. I headed towards the bathroom to get my hot bath ready and forget this whole night but knowing Quint and I do he won't give up that easy but this time I have the home-field advantage "Heh, don't worry puppy this kitten still has claws." I smiled while sinking into the tub letting my worries wash away.
