Filed To Story: Raven Sullivan the Unvalued Daughter
“What the hell happened to you?” I asked Cheryl.
“I was causing a distraction, just like you told me to, Reagan. It was working, and I was really going off on her. Then she started to clap back at me, being rude. She was disrespecting me, I mean, I know it is her party, but I am a Gamma, and a good fighter. I wasn’t worried about her. You said neither of you had been trained and I just wanted to let her know to stay away from Brandon. I was just trying to scare her. But you lied to me, Reagan. Raven DOES know how to fight, and very well. I got my ass handed to me in there, and she didn’t even break a sweat or start breathing hard. Was that your intention, to make me look like a fool in there?” Cheryl asked me.
I am shocked, when did Raven start mouthing off and knowing how to fight? She has been gone like three weeks. How could she have changed so much in that short amount of time? I don’t believe it. I bet Cheryl can’t fight, and just wanted to save face by lying to me about what happened. I have only known her a day, but I didn’t trust her, or her dad, Silas. I knew who they were. I heard how they spoke when they got to the pack. They are both good at conning people, but you can’t con a con. I make a mental note to tell dad too because I don’t care why he wanted them at Silver Blade, they all three have to go. I don’t trust them or want them there. I stepped out to do Cheryl this favor as a friend. To show her that I wanted to help her, yes, as well as hurt Raven too. I went out on a huge limb here, much more than she did. All she had to do was distract Raven for 5 minutes, she couldn’t even get that done. That is a good enough reason to not have them in the pack anymore, well, as far as I was concerned. She can’t follow simple directions.
“I said a distraction, not a fist fight, stupid. That was too much distraction. You could have just spoken to her, politely, for a few minutes before going to get your mate. Now Goddess knows who the hell he is with. I did my end of it. He took the drink. Well, at least he could have found someone else there before he met Raven. It would have been you if you could follow simple directions, Cheryl. I stuck my neck out for you. I mean if someone saw it, my head might be on the chopping block now. I am telling you now if I get busted, you will be busted too. I will tell them how you conned me into helping you, because of how much you are obsessed with him, and forced me to help you. So, if I go down, you are too Cheryl. So we need to figure out what we need to say to get out of here, as quickly as we can” I told her, and we both start thinking about a way out of our predicament.
I heard the door open at the top of the stairs and wondered who was coming now. I see Beta Timothy a second before I see dad and I fly to the bars to thank him for coming to get me. Then I see that dad is cuffed. What in the hell is going on here at Blood Walker? Do they really think that we will allow this to go unchecked? My mom is right behind him, also cuffed. I stagger back, I need to sit back down. How? How could this be happening to us? Dad starts playing twenty questions with me. I already know the drill, I am NOT going to admit to anything, no one saw anything. I already know that it was my word against theirs. I am about to become Luna, so if they know what’s good for them, they will just forget about something that just can’t be proven.
Then dad drops the hammer. No, I did my research, and they couldn’t have cameras. One of our pack members helped build this place. They just got done like 5 days ago. He said they didn’t have any cameras in the venue when I asked him just yesterday. But they could have gotten someone else to come in and install them I guess. I am such an idiot, I should have looked for them myself, I know better than to trust others. I know better than they do. What a freaking rookie mistake I had made. This is unbelievable. I want to throw something, but I have nothing in my room to throw, just the mattress. I have no one to blame but myself in this. Goddess, I just told dad several times that I hadn’t done anything. He knew I did, and I lied right to his face. He was testing me, he already knew I had done something, and that it was pretty big.
Holy shit, someone told on me. They had a warning of what we were going to do. It has to be Justin. My parents and her parents didn’t know. Justin wasn’t there with us, but he hates me now, and getting rid of me, quite literally, will allow him to go and try to get Raven back. It will be over my dead body too, just like I told him that it would be. It has to be him, even though I didn’t actually see him. I was on the Alpha floor when we went over the plans, very few people would have access to our floor. I bet it set him off thinking about how I had done the same damn thing to him. That was probably why he did it, he was really pissed off about me doing it to him. He missed dinner right after we got the plans nailed down. He was nowhere to be found for hours. I know it has to be him. Goddess, I am really going to kill him. His telling them about the plan, allowed them to be prepared to catch me. Everyone else knew much better than to cross me. I can feel blood coming out from the palm of my hands because I am griping my hands so tightly that my nails are cutting into them. I will kill him for his treachery if I find out that he had been involved. If he cannot be trusted, to follow the contract, to comply with being my mate, I will have no choice but to kill him. I refuse to allow him to be the Alpha of Silver Blade, how I could reward him if he betrayed me?
I am an idiot, I mean I was dragged away from him, clearly in a lot of trouble, and he is going to just keep standing there talking. Like he didn’t just look me right in the face and KNEW I needed his help. What could have been more important than me at that moment? I didn’t have any proof that he had done anything other than that. He honestly had no reason to think that I was in any kind of danger. Taking me away or, more to the point, hurting me, would start a war between our packs. Alpha Cole wasn’t an idiot. He would never do that to me. It may be that he had different crews do different things working on this venue. The cameras would logically be installed last, it could just be a coincidence. Maybe I am getting paranoid now, dad had me creeped out. I mean I was freaking out for a moment.
They have nothing on me, Alpha Cole was just bluffing. He may suspect something, but I had heard that Alpha Cole was having Raven’s last name changed. From Sullivan to Walker, and I can’t say that I am unhappy about it. Everything that they do gets me one more step away from Raven. Yes, we had similar facial structures and features, they were from mom, but our coloring, and attitudes were completely different from each other. If we weren’t near each other, people didn’t even notice how much we looked alike. I like that. Soon, I will be their only daughter and dad will have to help me out, but for right now, I will be keeping my mouth shut about it.
