One - Hundred Eighteen: Marks


    One-Hundred Eighteen: Marks


    Alexis


    All of us women were currently down in the rec room with all the kids. All the men are having one of


    their “meetings” at Marcus and Jason’s ce. I guess really it’s my ce too. I wonder when those


    guys will get a cue and realize that they are not being as sneaky as they think. It makes it tantly


    obvious when they congregate in one spot that they are up to something. They are being ridiculous.


    “So how are we going to find this ck market ring?” I ask.


    I touch the mark on my wrist. Draydon’s brother Haze gave it to me. We were best friends, so I was


    pissed and devastated when he was taken. How dare they take him. I gave him a mark as well. He has


    been missing now for 1500 years now. I know he isn’t dead because he said that if he were to die, I


    would feel it threw the mark. I know he has to be in some cell being held like an animal or in someone’s


    private collection. I really want to shut this ck market ring the fuck down.


    “We need to find someone who knows the business that will help us.” Jailynn points out.


    Yeah, we all know that. I sat there thinking about who could possibly help us out with this issue. We


    have sessfully, over the years, been able to not associate with those assholes. Obviously, we knew


    people who got mixed up with that shit at one point. We had been sitting there for an hour now, talking


    about everything. If what Damian said was true and Asomday was destroying previously ces they


    had met at or stayed at, then we were not going to find out much but going to those ces. We did


    send a couple of the animals to see if they could pick up a scent or something—anything to give us a


    hint as to where they might have disappeared to. So far, they had found nothing. They did catch a


    scent, but it led to another destroyed property. I started to think maybe one of us coulde up with


    something and try to get a hold of someone in the ring. If one of us acted like we were selling someone,


    but I knew as soon as anyone saw any one of us, they would know, and it would be over. We sure as


    hell can’t send Seth or any of the guys. Not this time. Having them go with Chris thest time was


    brilliant, and angels are different from the people that are involved in shit like this. I would ask dad, but I


    really don’t want him involved either. Besides, even if I asked him like it was just a question that I was


    interested in, he would get suspicious and probably start asking the guys, and then who the fuck knows


    what would happen. I am sure a veryrge fight between several people and Mykenzie and Kni


    would happen. Yeah, that is not a good idea. There is no one in the family we can ask because I know


    it would get back to the guys here and all hell would break loose. Not what we need right now.


    Den


    This is a fucking terrible idea. The guys are just finally trusting me and know I get this thrown at me.


    Mykenzie, Kni, and Bryn just poof showed up and scared the shit out of me. I really wish they could


    have given me a hint they were going to pop in.


    “Den, we know you used to be involved with the ring,” Bryn says.


    “We need your help to bring it down,” Kni says.


    Oh shit, seriously, they want to get back into that shady shit. I got out of it for a reason. It has been ten


    years since I was part of that shit. I got out when I found my mate. I wasn’t going to put her or my future


    family at risk. Now they want me to jump back into it. Mykenzie exins what has gone down in thest


    few weeks. Well, fuck, that was not what I was expecting to hear. I am d they caught the bears.


    They deserve all the shit they get. The bastards fucked with the wrong pack. I was surprised to hear


    about the angel and the demon. Oh, I know Asmoday from my time being part of that life. I know for a


    fact he took over the whole operation about five years before I got out. I was fairly high in the ranks.


    “I am not sure. If the guys find out about this and that you are involved, they are going to kill me.” I tell


    them.


    “Don’t worry about the guys. We will deal with them. They won’t be mad at you; it''s our idea.” Kni


    says.


    “Ok, let me make a few calls. I highly doubt that the two main holding facilities are the same. Asmoday


    made sure to move the stock around not to raise suspicion.” I exin.


    “Cool. We just need the location. We don’t necessarily need you to get involved again.” Mykenzie tells


    me.


    They leave, and I slump down into my chair. This is not what I want to do. I do still have contacts in the


    business. I really have no choice; it’s not like I can tell them no. I might be scared of the guys, but I am


    terrified of them. I wonder if Chris has any idea what his sisters are up to. Fuck, Kaleb is going to rip my


    throat out, and Donte is going to help. They gave me 24 hours to make a few calls and then return.


    Hopefully, at least next time, they will give a warning that they are going to show. I pull out my secret


    book and cell phone. I flip through my contacts and dial the number. I know at least he’ll answer. He is


    one of the few I still keep in contact with. We actually meet fairly frequently to talk and drink. He doesn’t


    answer, so I leave a message. I know he will call back. Now it’s just a waiting game till he returns my


    call.


    Kni


    I know we scared Den badly. I actually feel bad for doing it. He has actually been extremely helpful


    with all this shit. I know why he is hesitant to help us. The guys finally trust him, and he doesn’t want to


    lose that trust. I get it, but he is the only one we could think of that has ess to that world. So we had


    no choice but to have him help us. Mykenzie, Alexis, and I are on our way to see Den. He called me


    earlier to let me know that he had heard back from his buddy, that still knows about everything.


    Apparently, this guy is not in it anymore but knows about the current locations and who is involved.


    Den says that the guys wanted to meet us to discuss everything. I told Den that we would meet


    him. I know Den is worried about the guys finding out and killing, but he has nothing to worry about.


    We can handle the guys. They are not going to be a problem. We just got Den’s and were waiting for


    him in his office. Alexis was sitting in his chair while we were sitting on the sides of his desk. We were


    nice enough this time to let him know we were there. I turned as I heard the door open, and Den and


    his friend walked. Well, well, this is not who I was expecting.


    “Well, look who it is. It’s been awhile Storm.” Mykenzie says


    “Why yes, it has,dies.” Storm replies with a huge smile on his face.


    Storm is a warlock that we have known for years. He has always been truthful with us, but then again,


    we can read minds, so really lying to us is stupid. Mykenzie had actually talked to him about three


    years ago when we started following the bears, asking him to keep an ear out for any information. That


    was thest time we talked to him. We tell him everything that has happened and what we are currently


    trying to do. He is all for taking the ring down.


    “What’s that?” He asks Alexis.


    I look at her, and she is rubbing her wrist. Yeah, I knew about the marks, and I always felt terrible that


    we let that happen to Haze in the first ce. She exins about the mark and how they did it.


    “We weren’t mates or anything, but he is my best friend.’ She tells him.


    “You do realize you have a way to locate him, right?” He asks us.


    The four of us look at him like he has lost his fucking mind. He obviously realizes we have no idea what


    he is talking about. He exins that since Haze used one of his scales to make Alexis''s mark


    iridescent and used her power through one of his scales to mark him back, they are connected. The


    only issue is that he either needs to get near the fire, which is probably impossible since we are sure


    the ce where he is being held probably has shit installed to keep him from using his powers or


    shifting into his dragon.


    “Or she needs to get a hot scale to touch her wrist. But the fire cannot be from another dragon. It has to


    be from a Phoenix because only a red Phoenix fire can send out the power. Way back at some point


    both dragons and phoenixes had amon ancestor. So that''s why the phoenix fire is the only one


    that will work. Good luck at finding a phoenix.” Storm says.


    The three of us look at each other and smile. Oh, that won’t be a problem. We have unrestricted


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    ess to a phoenix. Alright, Haze, we’ll get you; bud, hang on a litter longer.. Oh, Asmoday, we are on


    your ass, you piece of shit.
