Bound with Blood

Facing him

...................... “Where are you going tonight?” Brae asked as I walk out into the shop getting a few looks from new guys in there

“Oh I had plans to go to this girl’s 21st” I moved Joe out of the way of the mirror that hung in the shop and check my lipstick.

“Where?”

“Oh my god are you kidding me” I rolled my eyes “I think I need to kick back after finding out what we found out in the last twenty four hours” I walked over to him and touched his cheek “I promise you I won’t disappear tonight and I’ll check in with you all” I said it so Pete and Joe could hear “Please let me crash some chicks party and blow off some steam” Brae Looked at Pete who nodded his head

“Brae you and I are going to talk anyway” Joe put his hand on Brae’s shoulder, which gave me the chance to get out while I still could.

“Okay I love you guys” I called out as I opened the door when the cab honked it’s horn “Oh and Brae” he looked round as I launched a snowball hitting him square in the face. I stepped away laughing I’d been practicing in the bathroom while I was getting ready I got in the cab “Lakefront bar please” he pulled away from the curb.

Tonight I wasn’t sure if I was scared or excited, I wrung my hands on my lap, I think I’d tried on every item of clothing I owned trying to find the right dress for tonight, it wasn’t a place where you could roll up in jeans or just something normal you had to look the part or you just weren’t getting in, mind you in places where they tried to stop me I used my name and now knowing what I knew I understood why.

“Hey sweetheart” the driver had turned in his seat “$8” I handed him a ten and got out there was already a line of people waiting to get in, I smoothed down my dress and stepped forward. One of the door men looked at me

“Miss Remus” he nodded to me “We were told you were coming” he opened the door for me. I walked inside my heart was pounding as I walked toward the bar. People were laughing and talking as the DJ played music loud enough for people to sing along or dance but not too loud that you couldn’t hear the person next to you.

I felt hands on my hips making me stop walking.

“You found my flowers?” oh that damn voice if only your daddy wasn’t some immortal asshole.

“Yes” I nodded

“I remember you used to love freesias”

“They smell so good” he moved to my side

“I have a table for us” he gestured to the side of the bar up a few steps where two guys were standing not letting people up there

“You must have pulled strings to get those seats” I said nervously

“It helps when you’re the owner” he chuckled his arm staying lightly round my waist his hand on my hip
