“Another one.” I hold up my empty beer glass and the bartender, a very hot blond human woman, winks at me as she goes to fill it up. The pub is full tonight of unsuspecting humans, humans I don’t usually like to be around but I don’t have a choice now. Fucking Dabriel. Angels are all the same. Dabriel used to my friend but he isn’t now if things were different then,

My phone rings stopping that thought, I pull my gaze from the bartender as I answer.

“Uncle J, when you coming home? Anna is being annoying.” Freddy’s voice fills my phone and I hold back a grin. I hate the uncle J nickname but I love Freddy. I have to admit taking on a young child wasn’t easy but we made it work with the help of my brother’s mate.

“Why? What is she doing?” I ask.

“Just making me clean my room, it’s not that bad as she is making it out to be. I think she said it looked like mini demons had trashed the place and had an after party.” He mutters. I can hear the annoyance in his voice. I try not to laugh at my sister in-laws use of words but she isn’t far from the truth. Mini demons are pests you don’t want in your home and they love to make a mess, I mean huge fucking messes that take days to clean. We had them once, and thankfully they left after they had fun.

“How about I bring you a pizza back? You know that hot one from Pizza Hut?” I say, knowing it’s his favourite and I feel bad for him. The last few days he has had more training than he has ever had but he needs it. My chest still feels tight at the thought of how close I had come to losing him. When I came back from my job to find he wasn’t home, I alerted the pack and we searched everywhere. I finally tracked his scent into town and thankfully found him alive. I took the dagger out of Winters kitchen and I plan to return it into the fucking vampire’s chests that hurt my nephew. I feel the hard silver dagger in my boot now and the thought makes me relax a tad.

“With a bottle of Coke and brownies?” He finally replies after thinking about it.

“Yes but the second boxes of brownies are mine. No trying to eat them like last time.” I tell him and I hear his chuckle.

“Deal,” Freddy says and I can hear the smile this time.

“Make sure the room is tidy, Anna is right, the room looked like a bomb went off the last time I was in there,” I tell him and I hear his groan.
