A/N: To the wonderful AnimeHuntress, thank you. Your work on my stories is deeply appreciated. I could always say, I couldn’t have done it without you, but that just wouldn’t be true. I could do it without you . . . It just wouldn’t be as good.
Ch.6
~Two and a half weeks later~
Ash walked up to the doors of sanctuary, the place was packed. Sweet home Alabama started blaring over the speakers not even thirty-seconds after he had made his entrance. Acheron looked around at all the people, he spotted several he knew, but he was looking for a certain couple in particular. He ignored the beings that were trying to leave without notice, because of his entrance.
Mama Lo and Papa Bear Peltier were standing by the bar; he started walking towards them, one thing, or person to be exact, on his mind. He was halfway to the bar on the other side of the room when he noticed her. In a room full of humans and other creatures, she stood out to him like a beckon of light.
It was the girl, Kagome; he had asked the oracles about her. They had only been able to give him one thing. Of course, it had been in the form of a shitty rhyme.
Fair is fair,
Unto you we share,
Her will is brought,
For it is she the gods sought.
She wore no makeup, but then she didn’t need to, to make him burn. The whole time he had been gone, she had been in his thoughts. He had believed, he would not be seeing her again, had felt a strange loss for this woman he didn‘t even know. And yet she was here, had probably been here the whole time, he felt relieved for some bizarre reason that made no sense to him what so ever.
Her blue-black hair was pleated and still it hung all the way to her ass. And what a fine ass it was indeed, tucked into a pair of form-fitting black leather pants. The flare of hips above that tight little ass made his mouth water with want; it also brought to his attention her small waist and the little band of silky looking skin left exposed by her dark-grey rap-around top. He let his eyes shift higher. Gods, sweet torture, even her breasts were perfect. Not to large and not to small, they would just barely overfill his large hands; there size matching that delicious flare to her hips perfectly. Damn, the woman was small, and yet, still had curves like nobodies’ business.
Was the woman trying to kill him? Surely being this hot and hard was not good for his health. Then he remembered she hadn’t even seen him yet. He shivered at the thought of what she could do to him, had she actually been trying to entice him.
There was something different about her though. He sent a hot raking look over her one more time, trying to find the difference. When he did spot it, it made him want to smile. There on her small, delicate feet, she wore a wicked looking pair of steel-toe biker boots, the boots had silver buckles running up the sides of them. However, the reason he wanted to smile was that the boots gave a good three to four inch lift to her height.
He had a sneaking suspicion someone was self-conscious about being short.
Someone bumped into his side, quickly knocking him out of his silent appraisal. The girl was a distraction, in his line of work distractions could get someone killed. Why was she still here when he had told the bears she was not to be? His world was a dangerous one to live in. He didn’t want her hurt; the thought of it was enough to squeeze his cold heart.
Turning away from the tempting sight the young woman made, he went to where the were-bears still stood talking. There had better be a good reason for this.
“Why is she still here?”
“Ash, how good to see you too,” the sarcasm in Mama Lo’s voice was hard to miss. A tic started in Acheron’s jaw. Mama Lo sighed heavily. “We had a bit of a problem.”
Ash rubbed his right temple, where he could already feel a headache starting to form. Both bears saw the telling motion.
“Let’s go in the back to talk,” Papa bear said before leading the way.
The same back room Kagome had been taken to her first night here was perfect for conversations of this kind, as it had been soundproofed years ago. Just on the off chance, that one of the Peltiers lost their tempers and changed into a bear in the middle of the bar, or if one of the other patrons of sanctuary needed to be detained. It also made a great place for Mama Lo’s sons to take woman and do their business if they felt the need.
As soon as the door was closed, Ash demanded answers. “What’s the problem?” He crossed his arms over his chest, frustrated with the situation.
Mama Lo lifted her eyebrow at the demanding tone, “she’s impervious to mind altercations, that’s what!” Papa bear patted his wife’s arm in a soothing motion.
Ash dropped his arms to his sides, stunned. “Excuse me?”
“Oh yeah, you heard me. She’s immune!”
His eyebrows creased in bewilderment, “but how?” The question was asked more to himself then to the bears.
It almost made Papa Bear Peltier feel sorry for the man, almost being the operative word. For someone like Acheron, who always seemed to know everything about everyone else, it was probably very confusing not to know all in all about the little woman in the next room. But then Ash was a very secretive individual himself, maybe it would do him some good to see how it felt being in the dark about things, for a little while anyways.
“I don’t know Cher, but we have learned a couple things about her sense she’s been here.” Mama Lo's lips twitched in a telling fashion.
“Oh, and that is?” Ash couldn’t keep the curiosity completely out of his voice.
“The little thing has a temper on her that could rival any bears that I know of!” Papa bear laughed, heavily.
“How so?” damn him and his curiosity when it came to this girl.
“Well, you see, Dev offered to replace her memories of us, the Daimons, and the wounds on her neck. We were swamped the next day so I told him to go ahead and do it. I still do not know how she did it, but she caught him. I think she felt him up there or something.” Mama Lo tapped her index finger to the side of her head, indicating where she thought the girl had sensed her son.
“Needless to say, she was not happy in the least, ended up berating him for trying to mess with peoples’ heads. It was a funny sight to see! The little thing wagging her finger in his face, I think she put him in shock, cause all he did was stand there and gawk at her like she had lost her mind!” Both Mama Lo and Papa Bear both laughed this time.
Acheron wished he could have seen it. With Dev being muscular and well over six foot tall and Kagome being the little bit that she was, it would have been a very funny sight to behold indeed.
“I think her standing up to him like that has endeared her to him, honestly. He’s been watchen after her like a hawk when she works the bar; it was obvious the bears carried for the girl already, something not easily done.
“And why is she working in your bar again?” Ash was trying hard to understand the situation, one that should have been relatively easy to comprehend, but for some reason he was having a hard time of it.
Both bears sobered instantly, hearing the slight edge to his voice.
“Acheron, hun. She doesn’t have anyone here. We talked to her after the incident with Dev. The night she was attacked was her first night in the states. She doesn’t have anywhere to go, so we offered her the position and a room to rent. She’s not like other humans.” Mama Lo sighed again; it seemed as if they were all doing a lot of that lately. “Besides, she already knows what we are, so we won’t have to worry about hiding our true forms from her.”
Ash clinched his teeth, tightly. “And how would she know that?”
“Dev threw meat at Kyle again and Kagome was there when he did it. . . . He wasn’t thinking.”
Ash cursed.
“She took it surprisingly well. In fact all she did was tell Dev he shouldn’t tease his brother.”
It was a well-known fact in their circle that Kyle, Mama Lo’s youngest son, was still too young to control some of his urges. So when Dev had thrown the meat at Kyle, he had gone from looking like a twenty-something year old human male to looking like his true form, a bear.
Ash cursed again, heading for the door.
Mama Lo hollered after him. “We already boxed Dev’s ears for exposing us. Acheron, don’t do anything rash! She’s the only one who remembered it; we took care of the other humans!”
Ash stopped, but did not turn around. “Nicolette,” he used her real name, not the nickname everybody usually used. “You should know by now, I am rarely ever rash, about anything. Your cub is safe. I’m going to go have a talk with Little Bit.” Then he kept walking, not giving her a chance to say anymore.
“Do you think we should go after him?” Mama Lo looked to her husband.
“No Cher, you know Ash, he wont do anything to the girl. Not anything that she doesn’t want anyway,” he smiled at his mate, his wife. “I think she frustrates him because he likes her.”
“You’re kidding, right?” Her voice sounded unconvinced.
“Not at all, did you see the look that came to his eyes when I said Dev had been watchen her?”
She smiled when he nuzzled her neck “I guess. Its just weird thinking of it that way, in all the time we’ve known him, I’ve never seen him with a woman, have you?”
“No. That’s probably why she frustrates him so. You used to do the same thing to me, still do sometimes,” he grumbled.
Mama Lo laughed. “Let’s go to the house. Dev can watch the bar tonight.”
