Getting back home was awkward. Roy was staring daggers at me from the back seat. The paramedics and firefighters made it almost impossible to get out of the city. I don’t know why we didn’t just go back to Cliffside, but I didn’t want to go all the way around Redwood with the patrols on the loose. Some of us were still covered in blood from head to toe.

Once we got home, I got the pups cleaned up and while I got cleaned up, Valentina fed them. Hunter fell asleep soon after that. Whenever I tried to step out of the room, the little girl would start crying. So, I waited until she fell asleep.

“You shouldn’t have brought them back with you,” Violetta says when I shut the door to the spare room across from mine.

I lean against the door feeling exhausted. Everything hurts. I feel like I got run over by twelve buses back to back. My body is still buzzing from what happened. I’m not going to be able to sleep for a while. I breathe out and turn around to face her.

“They’re kids,”

“They’re experiments, Perry. Successful experiments,” she clarifies. I shrug and move past her to go downstairs where my study is. “The only reason why you’re not getting rid of him is because he looks just like Darren,”

“Yes, he does look just like him,” I turn around. “He’s Mackenzie’s son. He’s a little boy, Violetta. No matter what she chooses, they’re staying here. Where they’re safe. You know exactly what it feels like to be scared every waking moment of your life. Fear makes us do crazy shit and they need better or they’re going to become like us, like him,”

“With that logic, the kids we killed back there deserved the same

“Fuck those kids. They aren’t him. This kid is ours. He’s our family. I don’t know who they are,”

“You don’t know him,” she insists.

“I know he’s Mack’s son. Jake’s grandson. My mate’s nephew. And the little girl belongs to him,”

“They’re five. You can’t possibly-”

“Enough, Vy,” I growl at her as we step into my study. The others are waiting for us and I hate that there are so many of them in my personal space. “Get out. Let’s go downstairs or something. It’s going to take me for fucking ever to get your stink out,”

They all stand and start moving out as I go to my desk to open up the windows. The King is the only one that stays put as they clear out.

“What’s going on?”

“Fucking Violetta wants me to kill the kids,” I scoff. “She thinks they’re dangerous. If anything she needs to be put down. With her walking around lots of more people are going to be dying,”

“Perry,” he scolds me.
