We pulled into the drive way and a punched the gas so I could get to my phone quicker and fix whatever damage Caleb managed to do.
"Damn it slow the fuck down! Hate when you drive like this!" Caleb said and was death gripping the food and the handle above the door.
"Should have told me what you sent on my phone and I wouldn't have to drive like this." I said and made a hard turn towards the garage.
"If you spill the food…" Caleb started
"If I spill the food it'll be your fault." I slammed on the breaks and waited for the garage door to open. "See you lived, you really should like me drive this car more often."
"You own 2 of your own!" He yelled still clutching on for dear life
"Oh yeah, I forgot." I laughed.
The door stopped and I pulled the car into our large 7 car garage. Most of the cars in here were Caleb's because I own too many. I had the car I drove Kaiba in yesterday sitting at the end because I hadn't had a chance to move it to its new home with other Aston Martins. Caleb still death gripping the food got out and I spun around and grabbed my phone. I unlocked my phone and opened to messages. Thankfully Caleb just asked Tea what day she was planning on like I asked him to type, and then I opened the message to Kaiba:
Nothing would make me happier than to go to dinner with you again. I promise not to be a snobby bitch and walk out this time, or kidnap you and bring you home, unless you like that kind of thing ;) Just tell me what day and I'll be there.
-KA
I'm going to kill my brother. I sat in my anger for my mom and then try to figure out a way to fix this.
I'm sorry that wasn't my doing. My brother thinks he's funny and held my phone hostage while I was driving and couldn't do anything to get it back. He isn't completely wrong, well about the kidnapping and walking out he is, but yes I would love to redo dinner…
-KA
I collected the rest of my belongs and walk through the garage and into a mud room then through the house to find Caleb. I found him sitting at the bar in the kitchen digging into the food we brought home with us. I put down my stuff and stood tapping my foot on the floor to express my anger and annoyance.
"So you read the message I sent Kaiba, not my finest work, but I think it made you look crazy and seductive at the same time." Caleb said chewing his cheeseburger.
"You're an ass and a pig. You better have not have ate my food too!" I said and started walking to the bags sitting on the counter.
"So I'm donkey and a pig? Does that make me a dig or a pinkey?" He asked sarcastically
"You're going to be a dead wolf if you don't tell me where my food is!" I growled
"Damn retract the inner bitch, it's in the cabinet over there." Pointing to a far cabinet by the refrigerator.
I grabbed my hidden food and went back to sit next to Caleb. We sat in silence for a while. Every once and a while I would catch his hand trying to steal my fries, and I would smack it as he nabbed one, but let him eat it.
"Did you find out what day that game is?" I asked as I picked up some fries and dipped them in my milkshake.
"Yea it's tomorrow night actually, I think they said it starts around 6:30, so hopefully it'll be over with before it gets too late. That way I can come home and phase, I hate holding off phasing for too long on the 3 nights of the full moon cycle, it makes my nose bleed and I get sick to my stomach." He said and balled up his hamburger wrapping. "What about you? Does that mean you're going to hang out with Tea?"
"Yea I think so. Maybe we can have them over before the game, show them the house and everything. We don't really need to be in the office for much tomorrow. We can leave at noon and come back phase for a while so it'll make the night easier, then invite them over." I said still eating fries
"What about your rescheduled dinner with Kaiba? What if he wants to do it tomorrow?" Caleb asked and stole a few fries and dipped in the milkshake.
"Tell him I have plans. My world doesn't revolve around the guy now." I glared at him both for the question and for stealing my fries again. "Who knows maybe we won't get along and people. It's just the wolf inside me that has the attraction it doesn't necessarily mean I have an attraction to him."
"You're a terrible liar." Caleb laughed
"I'm not lying!" I said quickly
"You're right your world doesn't revolve around him… yet, but you do have a human attraction to him." He said and basketball shot his balled up trash into the trash can on the other end of the kitchen. "And I know what you're lying, you bite the corner of your bottom lip."
"I do not, whatever I need to go check my emails in my office." I said and threw away my trash before heading to my office.
"I'm going outside if you need me." Caleb hollered behind me.
I really didn't have to check my email; I just wanted to be able to look at my phone without constant questions from the peanut gallery. I typed out a message to Tea to ask if she wanted to hang out at the house while the boys went to the game, and then checked to see if Kaiba had replied, he hadn't. I set my phone down and began looking over some of the Old Norse mythology stories about Fenrir the wolf child of Loki. I got engrossed in the story of when Fenrir killed Odin during the events of Ragnarok when my phone began ringing. I picked it up without looking to see who was calling.
"Hello?"
"I need your help." Replied a deep voice
I took the phone away from my ear to see look at the caller ID.
"Kaiba? What's wrong?" I asked
"I need you to help me, can you come to my office?" he asked sternly
"Of course, I'll be right there. Is everything okay?" I asked concerned
"It's fine, just get here quickly." He hung up
I put my books away and got up to find Caleb.
"Caleb!" I hollered out the door. I heard a deep bark coming from the other side of the backyard and soon a white wolf was jogging towards me.
"I have to go, I'll be back soon." I told the wolf in front of me.
Caleb let out a soft growl and laid his ears back in concern.
"I don't know what is going on but Kaiba called and I need to go." I replied
Caleb let out a couple of high pitched yips and his ears stood back up.
"Don't be stupid, and you are going to get your ass kicked on Saturday for that." I warned and walked back to the house.
I quickly ran up to my room and put on a pair of work out yoga pants, a hoodie and Nike tennis shoes ran back down to get in the same Aston Martin I drove yesterday. I sped down the drive way and all way till the outskirts of Domino. Once I started getting into the residential outskirts of Domino I let off the engine and drove the speed limit. I made it to Kaiba Corp quickly because the traffic was pretty light. I parked out front in front of the main doors and called Kaiba.
"I'm here."
"I'll be right there." He hung up the phone.
A couple of minutes later I saw a shadow moving in the pale light and Kaiba's silhouette appeared in the door way. I got out of the car and jogged up to the doors, Kaiba unlocked the doors and held it open for me.
"Are you going to tell me what I'm doing here?" I asked after the doors closed.
"How good is your sense of smell?" He asked watching me
"It's greater than a normal dog's, why?" I turned to face him
"Someone broke in, downloaded some files and left not too long ago. My alarm system went off telling me what happened and then I called you." He explained.
"So you want me to track them down? It's going to be kind of hard without a definite scent, I need something they worse or touched. There are a lot of different smells I can pick out one without knowing exactly what I'm smelling for." I answered
"Will blood work?" He asked
"Blood is perfect actually. Did you fight them?" I asked concerned for his safety
"No they a glass door to a room and one of them must have cut themselves. Follow me." He started walking through the lobby.
I followed behind him and then picked up my pace to walk next to him. If for some reason they intruders were still in the building I wanted to get to them first before they could do anything stupid like harm Kaiba. I keep my mind sharp and focused on every detail of my surroundings, the sounds, the smells, and the movement of everything. I switched over my eyes to I could see in the dark easier.
"Were you here when it happened?" I asked still scanning everything in front of me.
"Yes, I was up in my office working when the alarm system alerted me." He replied keeping his eyes forward.
"Could they still be in here?" I asked
"I don't think so; my surveillance camera caught two people exiting the building."
I suddenly felt the presence of a 3rd person in our area and stopped walking.
"What?" Kaiba asked as he turned back
"Shh…" I whispered. I slowly walk back to Kaiba without making a single sound. "Someone else is close." I whispered barely audible
I continued to walk following my feeling of where I believed the unwanted person was. I stopped at the corner where another hallway met the one we were walking down. I could suddenly smell blood, and a quiet a bit of it. I motioned to Kaiba to move closer.
"I smell blood, someone is still in here. It must be the one who got cut from the glass. I don't think they know your still here and figured they could come back for him." I told Kaiba watching his face.
"Can you find him?" Kaiba asked looking around the corner and down the hallway
"Yes, but what do you want me to do when I do find him?" I asked hoping this wasn't going the way I was thinking it would.
"Make sure he doesn't do anything stupid like try to run away." Kaiba said finally looking at me.
"Okay so keep him trapped in whatever room he is currently hiding in. Good I thought you were going to have me kill him." I said with relief
"Would you have if I asked you?" He asked with a small smile that I could tell he was trying to suppress
I looked up and him and completely dead pan and serious, "Yes, if you asked me to kill him I would have without hesitation, I might not have been very happy about it. If he tries to attack you I would still kill him, I cannot and will not let anything or anyone harm you. I don't think you completely understand this bond I have with you, every fiber of my being, wolf and human, is completely loyal and faithful to you now. The kiss sealed it."
"I have my own personal werewolf?" He asked now not even trying to hide his smile.
"That's what you took away from all that? Now you have a pet werewolf?" I rolled my eyes, "Come on let's find this douche bag." I said and followed the scent of blood. Kaiba was following behind me and stepped on my heels a few times because of his long legs and stride.
"Okay the scent stops at this door, he has to be in here." I whispered, "I'll open the door just in case he has a weapon. I'll be able to heal in seconds unlike you." I placed my and on the lever door handle and took a deep breath slowly opening the door.
Once the door was open the smell of blood came in stronger than it had been in the hallway. "He's in here somewhere, stay here." I whispered as I began scanning the room. With my wolf eyes I could see in dark just as easily as I could if the lights were on, but I couldn't see our intruder. I took a few steps into the room and took notice to the collection of office supplies and figured it was a storage closet. Great hiding spot it would be pretty easy to hind behind all of the desks and chairs that were stacked up. I began smelling at the air to see if I could get a sense of where the blood was strongest, I noticed stronger to my left and began tip-toeing that way. I was at the closest corner or the room when I heard a rustle and a stack chairs began to fall in my direction.
I sprang forward to dodge the majority of the chairs, but I was struck by a couple that was at the very top of the stack that had fallen off to side during the movement. The legs of the chairs had hit the back of my head, and I could smell my blood. I reached back and felt a wet spot beginning to matte my hair together.
"Fucking asshole!" I growled, "You better pray Kaiba finds you before I do."
"Come get me you bitch, I'll take care of that boo-boo for you." I hear a voice say and it wasn't too far ahead of me.
A gave an evil laugh and leapt forward crashing into another person, he was a lot bigger than me, and clearly had been working out for a long time. Luckily for me I had my werewolf strength behind my leap and I knocked the man down easily.
"What the fuck, you damned cunt, get the fuck off of me!" the man yelled and threw me into a couple of desks stacked on top of me.
"Oh, you're going to regret doing that!" I screamed and my claws and teeth appeared. I hoped up on to the desk that the man had just threw me into and quickly found him trying to crawl into a new hiding spot. I effortlessly maneuvered over the desks and chairs and landed softly enough not push any of them over. I quickly made it to where the man thought he was safely hiding and jumped down to land on top of him. I began to strike him and repeatedly punched his sides to hopefully rupture a kidney. The man couldn't see me and was swinging too high to hit me while I was crouched down in front of him. Once he realize he wasn't making contact with me he powerfully lifted up a knee and got me square in the gut. I doubled over and began to cough.
"You're a tough little bitch aren't you? You got some power behind those punches; I don't feel bad for hitting you now." The man said impressed.
"You're going to regret saying that prick, I'm not even trying hard here." I said angrily.
I moved to the side to avoid him following my voice to find me and once I he was facing perpendicular to me I tackled him into a several stacks of chairs. The chair came crashing down around us and we were both buried underneath. Once the commotion was over I could hear the man's labored breathing, but he wasn't moving, the falling chairs must have knocked him out cold. I took a couple of moments to settle myself down, if the fight had lasted much longer I don't know how long I could have held off phasing and causing an even bigger mess.
"Kaiba? Are you alright?" I yelled while breathing hard.
There was no answer.
"Kaiba?" I yelled louder and with a heavy tone of concern
Still no answer
"Fuck… alright come on big guy, I can't leave you here." I said and stood up and grabbed the man's feet.
I drug the man over the fallen chairs and out into the hallway. I finally got a good luck at the man in the light. He was big, and I mean he was huge. Clearly he spends the majority of his him in a gym, he was muscular and in incredible shape. If I wasn't so mad at him I might have been attracted to him. He had short military cut brown hair and a squared jaw line, his arms were covered in tattoo and I took notice to the Marine Corp seal on his arm. He had a utility belt on with a hand gun and a buck knife, I dropped his feet and took the weapons off his belt and threw them back in the utility closet.
"Don't need you doing anything stupid while I drag you around, it's not like they would really do too much damage to me." I said as I picked up his feet and started dragging him down the hall. I walked a little ways and sniffed the air to pick up on Kaiba's scent. I got a fresh scent and followed it through a couple of different hallways.
"Kaiba?" I hollered every once in a while but without reply.
The man began to stir so I had to stop and give him a good hit to the face to keep him out. "Come on dude just stay asleep for a little while longer… I really need to stop talking to myself."
Suddenly I hear footsteps coming towards me and I dropped the man feet again. The footsteps were coming faster and louder and directly towards me.
"Awh, there's the little princess. Now sweetheart how did you manage to get Marcos all the way out here by yourself?" Said a man who looked to be in his 40's and looked like he had been hitting the gym pretty hard too.
"I'll show you, but unfortunately you'll be unconscious like him." I snarled and pointed my chin to the man he called Marcos.
"I've got more experience in fighting than Marcos; I don't think you'll be as lucky in taking me down princess." Said the man and reached behind him to expose a large serrated buck knife.
"Put that pig sticker away before you get yourself hurt." I growled.
"Honey it's not me that you should be worried about." Marcos said with a sly smile and charged at me slashing the knife through the air narrowly missing my chest. I stepped away at the last second and grabbed the back of the man's shirt and used his forward momentum to push him down to the floor. I managed to quickly grab the gun that was on his right side, un-holster it, and cocked it to put a bullet in the chamber all before the man could stand. By the time he got back up I had his own 9mm pointed directly at his head.
"Now sweetie you need to put that away before you get hurt. I don't think you know how to use it, but I am impressed that you were quick enough to get it off of me." The man and held a hand of as if I would willingly place the gun in his hands.
I smiled with only half of my lips, "Honey it's not me you should be worried about." And pulled the trigger.
