Heart of the Bayou Beasts Chapter 151
BriI was sleeping soundly when Beau’s swearing and the sound of a motor stirred me awake. Beau snatched the blanket around me as I groaned sitting up. A growl rattled in Beau’s chest as Sean pulled up to the dock not bothering to tie off. “Beau, get her and anything that can trace to her out of here, the feds are going over our heads and it looks like those people are paying them to do things not entirely legal to get shit done. Put her somewhere they ain't gonna look, and I hope to hell ya’ll covered your asses.” He added as Beau pulled me up and the words began to register.“How long?” Beau asked as he rushed to put his jeans on.“Who’s with them?” I asked finally.“I didn’t take the time to get their names, a couple of well-dressed bean poles, an older man in a suit, and that muscled tattooed guy.“I’ll try to stall them,” his eyes scanned the sun that was just beginning to rise. They are starting south of here and will be here by noon.“Thank you,” Beau said, as he grabbed my clo

BeauLeaving Bri behind was hard, she was right I had to play this off like they were disturbing my peaceful Sunday afternoon. So I gathered the boys with me and their poles and tossed our lines in the water. Claude wore a big-brimmed hat to keep his eyes shadowed and Lou had a ball cap since they had less control holding their wolves back. Bas positioned himself nearer to the house as a last line of protection. The shotgun sat on the porch, a pouch with ammo slung over the rail when I heard the boat's drone far off. “Get me that gun Bas,” I said, out loud and he complied. I cocked it with deft hands. They were pulling up as Lou reeled in a scrap of a catfish and he swore glaring at the boats sidling up before chucking it back into the waters. “So much for fishing,” Lou grumped. We had talked about this. Try to act like their presence is an annoyance and we just want them hurried up and gone.“Beau,” the redheaded sergeant of the fish and wildlife crew acknowledged.“Tanner,” I said

BriI had made my way along the outside of the island inside the tangle of trees as I avoided using the machete so as to not pinpoint that someone had recently been there. A barred owl called and I looked up where it perched on a branch next to a gaping hollow. The ache in my head throbbed and pulsed as I squinted up at the cypress branches calculating if I could make the climb with the load of bags on my back. I had to try. My darkness was on edge, its tendrils flowing into my veins as I strained with the effort of pulling myself from one awkward branch to another. Until the owl fluttered away and I found the hollow to be vacant of anything unsavory. I dropped the bags inside and curled on top of them, the stillness and the quiet were suddenly unnatural. A heavy oily aura was creeping over the land. Darker and larger than I remembered that power that held me back so often from lashing out, from defending myself. The Dog’s presence was announced through the territory’s map in my mind

Beckham The little cunt bitch had ruined all my careful plans, she had brought this on herself. Everything I had worked for and endured under that dark bitch of the matron viper rested in gaining power over her and she had escaped us all. She was supposed to be under our thumbs. Under the command of our whims. I had a need for her power and she had the audacity to defy the only course I could allow, her complete domination so that I could ensure the only reason I joined this agreement was carried out in due course. I have waited long enough, I would find her and bring her back. Once she was ours again, I would not show her the mercy I once promised myself I would give her.The boat strode over the dark water as the sun began to set. The eerie landscape of this place is a testament to the power it holds. I could feel the churning blackness far within the swamp. My dark spirits would have to be a match for whatever the little bitch held under that careful mask she had worn all these ye

Bri The land sheltered me as if it were a sentient thing, its energy closing in around my darkness. The music faded and wispy bright forms appeared in my mind's eye. “Brianna,” their voices echoed. “we’ve been waiting for you, remember the light always consumes the shadows. You are the light in the darkest places, Love is as beautiful as it is vengeful, love is kind as it is destructive. I found my inner voice mute to respond “Listen,” the voices echoed as the talons of dark things clawed searching. I buried the light so deep I wasn’t sure if I could find it again. The voices repeated and faded into oblivion. I suppressed a scream as the claws raked into my darkness through the territory’s shield once more any deeper and I’d be marked by the demon ravenous for my blood above. I couldn’t fight back, couldn’t let them know I was here, that the wolves were here. Images of the girl threatened to close in she was different now older she had a notepad in her hand as she scribbled out the

WyattWatching through The Beast's eyes and seeing her relief as she wrapped her arms around our neck and sagged into us.“I feel like a princess being rescued from a tower.” She tried to joke. We grunted and she wrapped her legs around our middle before we used those claws to slide down the trunk of the tree, Bri in tow. Then we refused to put her down the caveman that The Beast was, just kept walking and I didn't protest as she nestled into us safe and secure. Beau followed behind head hung low, without a word. No doubt ready to hear me rage. He had kept them all safe and his choices were a lesson all the boys as well as I needed to take note of. Sometimes your brain was the better choice over your physical strength. No doubt in my mind that had he slipped up, chosen a different route, or fallen victim to that rage that still boiled in both our veins he’d have lost not just Bri, but himself, and possibly the boys as well. Now wasn’t the time to soothe his mind though. He'd be too
Heart of the Bayou Beasts Chapter 157
BriI knew something was bothering Wyatt and though I tried not to pry, my unwillingness to watch him devour himself caused me to pin him down shortly after our close call with the Vipers. When he told me what had happened with Isabella I warred with a mixture of jealousy which was irrational and a sense of territorialness that was outside of my character… or so I thought. Kay’s superficial want to claim what was mine was enough to turn the green-eyed monster’s head in her direction. I didn’t know the demon existed till now, Adding Isabella’s stunt to the mix had my eyes seeing red. As Wyatt had said, the woman should have known better than to play with fire, simply speaking for the Rougaour. It just made my blood boil that much hotter. I walked away from that conversation in simmering rage. Something I didn’t know what to do with. It wasn’t as if I didn’t trust my men. I supposed it was the unrealistic terms they had already placed on themselves when I left, that had left me insecur
Heart of the Bayou Beasts Chapter 158
WyattWhen Bri had told us what she had done I should have been angry with her for putting herself at possible risk of being seen, after everything we were protecting her from she’d been callus to pull that stunt. But I couldn’t help the pride and smugness that leached from deep within me. It wasn’t just The Beast who was simply smug, the rest of me, the wolf and the man, beamed with pride. It was a gesture of claim and I was happy she claimed Beau, us. I knew that it hadn’t been just Kay’s actions toward Beau that had caused her mood lately but also the actions I had admitted Isabella had attempted on me. I decided I’d just stay away from her and Maria and had promised as much to Bri. She had just scowled at the idea. I think she wanted to make Isabella pay. I wouldn’t want to be Isabella if that showdown ever happened but I’d happily spectate.The boys were back in school now. Since that small venture of revenge, she had allowed herself to let her darkness out to play. She took par
