The two shifters stared back at Savage as if they were unafraid.Scepter snorted, noticing the resemblance in them.While the older male kept his dark hair clipped close in a high-and-tight style, the other’s was slightly longer but the same shade of dark brown.They both wore camo and a brown shirt with a pocket on the front.They looked enough alike to be brothers.The younger one had several rings on his right hand and a shit-eating smirk on his face that Scepter wanted to wipe off with his fist.
“You two related?”Savage asked the pair.
“Yeah.I’m his older brother.If you want to blame anyone for the whores’ deaths, I’ll take it.He followed me like always.”The male with the short, cropped hair gritted his teeth but held Savage’s gaze.
“Why did you kill them?My clan are not easy targets, even the females,” said Savage as he stepped closer to the pair.
They looked at one another, then back at Savage.He waited for an answer, knowing their reason already, but wanting them to voice it.
“We didn’t think they mattered.They’re females.”
Scepter smirked.As Savage’s right-hand man, he knew females were every bit as important to their clan and could tell Savage was ready to end their lives for their callous disrespect of women.They were shifters who, as part of a pack, should respect and know females were important.How the fuck didn’t these idiots realize the truth of such an apparent reality?Scepter didn’t understand how they’d lived this long without getting killed.The male, Alpha Garrison, sucked at his position.
“Whether they have tits or not, all beings matter, boys.If I thought you had a smidgen of hope, I’d offer you salvation.However, it’s just not in the cards for either of you.What I will do is make it quick and painless.Like I did for your alpha, since you were both brought up to think the stupid shit you do.”Before either could spout more shit and piss him off, Savage ended their lives.
“Scepter, don’t give me shit about redoing my inner office.I’ve already called for the lesser vamps to collect the blood of these fools.”
Chapter Seven
“Aurora, your mate isbeing mean to me.He didn’t let me have any fun.He took all of them out.And, now look at that.”Scepter pointed at the cleanliness of the kills.“He did it with the utmost care.”
“I am very thankful for his consideration.Next time, I’ll ask him to share his...kills with you.”Aurora snorted.“If my parents had continued to live, they’d have loved you both.Oh Goddess, how the hell am I supposed to explain about my love life?Like, hello, I’m dating the Mafia Vampire King.How do we even make that work?”
“Sssh, Vita Mea, we will make everything work together.”
“I think I should let the two of you have some privacy.”Scepter coughed into his hand.
He brushed her hair back from her face.“I love you.Everything will be fine.I need to finish with these males before I show you just how much.”He bent, caging her body in between his arms and the chair.
Scepter rolled his eyes and met the stare of the males still alive.
After a couple of minutes, Savage stood.“I’ll always think of you and your comfort, my love.”
“Want me to off these males, Scepter?”he asked.
A few rumbles met his words, but the shifters weren’t stupid enough to say anything.
