Sheriff Avery managed to get rid of most of the physical evidence, as far as witnesses go that is

another story. He is going to have to take care of at least six more people before all of the threat was

gone.

That was just too many at once to take care of with the FBI hanging around every corner. His hitman

was MIA, that jerk better show soon or he will be the first loose end he is going to tie up.

He had another shipment coming in tomorrow, He did manage to get the drop route changed, so at

least the FBI wasn’t going to interrupt that. Distribution on the other hand will be tricky.

The Sheriff sat on his back porch enjoying a cold one, wondering how James’s hunt was going, and if

he was going to have to clean up for that jerk. He is always thinking of his dick, his bear and the next

kill. He didn’t believe in shifters, till he saw James in action.

He enjoyed the hunt when, they would run and they would catch them, watching people being eaten

alive though, was both horrible and fascinating.

Agent David sat in a huge living area, it was cozy and warm. They gave him coffee and doughnuts. He

laughed and told them that he was FBI, not the local fuzz. Still, the doughnuts were good. He was

waiting for about an hour when Jack finally came down.

Before Jack could even sit down, David started talking hurriedly.

“Jack you got to help me, I was going to come here anyway. I am investigating all the missing people

cases in this area. Something has come up that was unexpected, it is wonderful but I need help to get

my daughter out of the forest before she is hunted down.” 2

Jack just stared at him, that is the most words he had ever heard the man speak.

“Slow down David, you have my help. When did you have a daughter? Who is she? Where in the forest

is

she?”

David took a deep breath and a sip of his coffee.

“Jack I don’t know exactly where she is in the forest, I know she is north of

here. I just found out today that I have a daughter her name is November Jane Fosters.”

“Her mother and I had a fling, I thought it was something more. Turns out she was just bored and left

for something more exciting, I talked to her over an hour ago. That was when she told me that her

piece of crap husband was out after our Daughter.”

Jack just looked at him like he had grown two heads.

“You said her name was November Jane Fosters?”

“Yes, That is what I said Jack, why do you ask, do you know her?”

Jack went over to the bar and poured two shots of vodka, handing one to David.

David tried to wave it off, he was working, you don’t drink when on the clock. Jack shoved it his way

again.

“Drink it, David, your gonna need it. You might want to call your crew and tell them that you will be

staying here tonight.”

James followed the trail to a small enclosed clearing, he realized by the marks on the trees, that this

was that Mountain Bear Clan, he swore every word he knew. He let out a roar.

He could smell Nova’s scent here and a male that was it. Just the two of them. It ended at the gate

going south, that was where he picked up on the motorcycle tracks.

He ran off into the forest heading home, that little slut is going to pay. How dare she do this to him. She

was

his, all his, only his. He was going to make sure she paid for all of her sins. First, he was going back to

Kathy and making her wish she never had the slut, to begin with.

His bear was livid, he wanted the kill. James wanted the girl and he wanted the kill of the grizzly. He’d

never killed another bear before and thought that it would be exciting. James soothed his bear, soon

you will have your kill just be patient a little longer.

Kathy Fosters was coming down from her addiction, she desperately needed another drink. The

woman that she was with handcuffed her to the bed, she took the gag out of her mouth, as long as

Kathy stayed quiet.

The woman came over and looked at ‘her, with a disgusted look in her eyes.

“You look like shit.”

She handed Kathy a shot of some kind of liquor. Kathy didn’t question what it was she just tilted it back.

It was gone in one gulp. With her free hand she held up the glass for another, the woman smiled and

took the glass. She didn’t give her anymore though.

“Please I need more, now.”

“You don’t need more, you want more. I will keep you from going too deeply into withdrawals till you get

admitted, but I am not going to let you be drunk all the time.”

“You want another drink, you want to feel comfortable with the withdrawal symptoms, I can do that for

you, but you better start answering some questions.”

With that, the woman got up and left

the room. Leaving Kathy to her thoughts. Thoughts Kathy wasn’t too happy to be thinking.

Nova woke up with warm arms around her and sunlight on her face. It was a little disorientating at first

but she woke up a little bit more remembering everything that happened before.

She snuggled back into the arms and closed her eyes for a little bit relishing the feeling. She felt shy at

the same time she wanted him. It was all new to her and she vowed to enjoy it all. If the world thought

she was a slut then so be it. She wasn’t going to change.

She had a lot to learn and she wanted to know it all. Not just the S*x parts she wanted it all, she wanted

to stay here with Jack. She was a little

intimidated about being the only human in a bear clan. She didn’t know what that all entitled though.

She knew one thing for sure, even though she wasn’t sure if it was a wise thing. She was in love with

Jack Dawson. It is happening rather fast.

She did wonder though what was going on at home, have they discovered that she left. Did James

figure out that she was in his shed? She started to shiver a little with the memory.

That was when she felt Jack stir, he moved so he could look her in her eyes, she was startled for a little

bit, Jack’s eyes were not the light blue they were a darker blue. This was Brutus.

“What is it that has you afraid, little one?”

She just stared at him in wonder, the eyes were just as warm as Jack’s but a bit more of wildness to

them.

“I’m alright I was just remembering the inside of that shed.”

“Would you like to tell me what you saw in there?”

“You are my soul mate, I would like to know what scares you so I can eliminate it.”

She was silent for a little bit, then she snuggled closer deeper into his arms. Brutus enclosed her

completely to give her courage.

“Before I tell you can you both answer a few questions?”

“I will answer a question, then you tell us what was in that cabin that has you so upset and scared.

After you can ask us as many questions as you

please.”

“Ok, my first one is just so I can understand. When you are looking at me through Jack, does that mean

that you and Jack are here right now, or is it just one of you?”

“We are both here, Jack was sleeping while I was on guard. The moment you started to shiver though

we were both aware. We are both here right now. I am always with Jack and Jack is always with me.”

“Alright, I think I get the idea anyway, now for what I found in James’s shed. It was the single most

horrible thing I have ever seen or ever will. The walls were all decorated with ears. Human rotting ears,

some had earrings on them still. There was also a box with jewelry in it.”

“There was a table there with a chair,

on the table was a huge jar of eyeballs. The smell was unforgettable. I almost barfed right there, I did

later in the forest.”

“When I got back to my room, I realized a few facts. One my mother got new earrings and she gave me

a n*ecklace. I am certain that she didn’t buy it.”

“It made me sick again, instead, I changed my plans. I was going to wait till early morning to run but I

decided it was best with the storm coming that I would just go right then and there.”

She started shaking again she even felt cold to the touch, Jack took over holding her tighter and

covering her up with the blankets.

“Shhhh, No more. Don’t go there anymore, you are here with me and Brutus we will let nothing happen

to

you. We are going to keep you, you are our soul mate that means forever. We will keep you safe and

we intend to spoil you rotten.” I

Nova let out a little laugh as she started to cry. She buried her face into his warm bare chest and let all

that fear go.

“Nova, we have something to tell you. It may come as a bit of a shock and I don’t know how your gonna

feel about it. You have to know though. I will never keep anything from you. ever.”

She looked up at him, as he k*ssed her tears away.

“Your real father is sleeping in one of my guest rooms.”

Nova’s eyes got really big and her mouth hung open for a minute before she let out a loud…

“WHAT?”
