“Holy fucking shit.” Nova gasps. “This man is a sadistic little fuck. And you work with him?” Nova looks from the screen to me. “How the fuck is this man even allowed to be a police officer?”
“I have no fucking clue.” I growl. “But he shouldn’t be. He should be locked up for the rest of his fucking life.”
“Or dead.” The man who hacked into the files says. His name is Rafe, Nova said he’s the guys cousin.
At first he wasn’t going to help out because he knows who I am, but I told him that when I dropped the case, this guy, Chris, wanted to keep it going, he obliged.
I sure as fuck wasn’t expecting to see what I’m seeing.
“This monster was able to rape and beat three little girls for years, from the ages of thirteen to sixteen. But because he was a minor, all he had to do was some time in juvie, and some‘treatment’ and he was good to go.” Rafe growls, shaking his head. “That’s fucking disgusting.”
Disgusting doesn’t even describe it.
“What’s going on?” Nick’s voice has my heart racing as my head snaps up. Fuck, he looks good today. His blond hair is messy and he’s letting his beard grow out a little bit.
Nova grins at me over her shoulder and I blush, because I know she can feel my growing erection under her ass right now. I can’t help it. She’s seen this man. I know if she had a dick she would be hard around him all the time too.
“We have a problem." Nova tells him.
Nick crosses his arms, narrowing his eyes at me. “Why the fuck are you here?”
“Hey. He’s pack, he can be here.”
“He’s a fucking cop.”
“A cop who brought us information that's going to save your pack.” Rafe says. “I don’t know what's going on between all of you, but if what Nova says is true, you should have some respect for the Omega. Don’t treat him like the enemy unless he’s given you a reason to.”
“You’re joking, right? I had you look into him; you followed him. You know what he was doing.”
“Was. He stopped the moment he found out you were his Alpha.” Rafe looks to Nova and she nods.
Nick shoots her a glare but she just smiles and flips him off.
“So you’re on his side?” Nick growls.
“No, I’m on the side of respecting your Omegas.” Rafe stands. I like this guy. He’s cute, too. “I understand the circumstances of how everything happened, but if he was a bad guy, he wouldn’t still be breathing. So, man the fuck up, have a converstion with your Omegas, and I’ll get some men together to pay Officer Chris Druggin a visit.” Rafe grunts before leaving the office.
Nick watches him go before looking back to me and Nova. She leans into me and I wrap my arms around her, kissing her neck.
His jaw ticks before he nods towards the computer. “What are you looking at and why are we paying your cop buddy a visit?”
“He isn’t my buddy.” I narrow my eyes at him. “And what's on the computer is me proving to you that I’m not your enemy. But this fucker,” I turn the laptop around, “is.”
Brows furrowed, he leans over and reads what's on the screen. “What the fuck?” His furious eyes flick up to ours. “And he’s a fucking cop?”
“Not for much longer.” Nova says.
“Why are you here, why are you showing us this?”
“Because he came to me today letting me know he was going to do whatever it takes to keep your case open and be the one to solve it. Even if it means putting Nova at risk. I won’t allow that to happen, so I wanted to look into him more before I told you.”
“And what, if he was a good guy you would let it go?” Nick growls.
“No, but I would have tried harder to get him to drop it before getting him killed. I’m sorry, but I’m not going to be okay with murder just because I’m mated to someone who is a killer. It’s not how this works. However, I am willing to look the other way if needed, like now. This is my pack. You are my Alpha. Nova is my Omega. I meant what I said, I'd never let you guys go to jail and I’d never let anything happen to this pack. I don’t know what else I can do to prove that to you, but this is something. Chris is the last string keeping this case alive, and as long as he’s alive, he won’t stop until it’s solved. I don’t know why, and I don’t care why, but I won’t sit back and let him fuck with my pack. Do you hear me?”
Nick’s nostrils flare and I try to ignore Nova’s perfume but my girl seems to get aroused by pretty much anything we do.
