Geek Wolf Chapter 12
Felix grabbed his keys.
“What are you going to do?” Jasmine asked, rushing to him and grabbing his arm.
“I’m going to investigate these locations. I printed out a photograph of the man and I’m going to ask the people at the hotels if they’ve seen him.”
“You shouldn’t go alone,” Jasmine said.
“I’ll go with you,” Blake said.
Felix looked to his brother, surprised at the offer.
“Really?” Felix asked.
“But that leaves Jasmine here alone,” Blake said.
“We could drop you off at the bookstore, and maybe pick up Rex,” Felix said.
“Okay. I can hang out with Luna for a while.”
Felix locked up every window and door in the house and they wall went out to the car. He drove into town while Blake called their oldest brother and let him know what was happening.
“We should all go looking for this creep,” Rex said over speaker phone.
“If you gather everyone, we can all fit in my car,” Felix said as Blake held the phone.
“We’ll be here.”
Felix felt his heart racing as he parked in front of New Moon Books. Felix, Blake and Jasmine hurried inside the bookstore, and they found Luna, Rex, Thorne, Damian and Venus, and Tate and Dalia.
The whole family was there to support them.
Luna wrapped her arms around Jasmine and the other women gathered around them.
“You should go,” Luna said.
The brothers left the bookstore and Felix gave his mate one last look. The other women were gathered around her, holding her and talking to her. He knew that she was in good hands.
The brothers piled into the SUV. Damian and Tate climbed all the way into the third row in the back of the car.
“Where to?” Rex asked from the passenger seat.
“This is the location of his last IP ping,” Felix said, handing him the paper where he’d written it down.
Rex used his GPS to direct Felix to the first location.
“What will we do when we find this guy?” Tate asked from the backseat.
“Rip his a*s off,” Thorne said.
“Reasonably demand he get the hell out of Selkie and never come back,” Damian said.
Felix parked in front of the first hotel. Felix and Rex walked into the lobby while the other brothers waited in the car.
“Have you seen this man?” Felix asked, holding up the image for the middle-aged female clerk. She squinted and then picked up her reading glasses.
“Maybe. Why?” she asked.
“This man has been stalking my girlfriend. Threatening her, leaving dead animals on her porch. The police can’t do anything. He needs to be stopped.”
The woman lifted her hand to her open mouth and gasped in shock. “That’s terrible. I can’t believe anyone would do that sort of thing.”
“Was he here?” Rex asked, his alpha power running over her. She shivered with the power of his magic and blinked several times.
“He was here on Monday.”
“Did he tell you what his plans were or where he might be going?” Felix asked.
“No, he didn’t say.”
“What vehicle was he driving?” Felix asked.
“He was driving a blue truck,” the woman said. Felix thanked her and he and Rex walked out of the hotel.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
“What do you think?” Felix asked. “That was the last ping from his location two days ago.”
“We know that he was at the lodge yesterday evening,” Rex said. “Maybe we should investigate there.”
“Good idea.”
Felix and Rex climbed back into the truck and Felix started down the road to the lodge. When they arrived, all six brothers made their way to Jasmine’s cabin. Felix sniffed the air, trying to pick up a scent, but even inside the garbage, the carcass put off an overpowering scent.
“Did you pick up anything?” Felix asked his older brother.
“I’m just picking up a dead bunny,” Rex said.
“I’ve got something,” Thorne said from the back of the cabin. The rest of them walked over and Rex and Felix perked up.
“It smells like human urine,” he said.
“I wonder who would have urinated on her cabin?” Thorne said with a growl.
“It’s him. We can track him.”
The brothers all looked at each other at once, knowing what it was time to do. Their wolves had a much more powerful sense of smell than their human forms.
They began to take off their clothes, and one by one they shifted into their wolf forms. Felix threw back his head and howled up into the blue spring sky.
In a split second, the six of them charged into the forest behind the cabin. Felix had the scent and so did his brothers. They would find where this man. They charged through the forest. The animals were on the hunt.
Felix didn’t want to stop at the edge of the forest, but a pack of six white wolves would be conspicuous in the middle of a luxury vacation spot. He growled and pawed at the ground, his tongue lolling from the run.
His brothers sniffed the air, yelping low. Felix turned his head and picked up the scent they were after and continued the chase through the forest. They circled around the resort to the parking lot, where they came to a parked blue truck.
It had the scent all over it. The brothers shifted, standing naked in the cool spring air.
“He’s here,” Felix said.
“What you want to do?” Rex asked.
“We need to find him,” Felix said.
“But I was so looking forward to hunting him down and tearing out his a*s,” Thorne said.
“We need to be reasonable,” Damian said.
“I don’t care what we do. I just want him taken care of,” Felix said. The scent of the dead rabbit had sent him into a rage all over again.
Chris had come all the way to Alaska to torment his mate. It was an egregious act of sick obsession. This man was dangerous.
“Do you think he’s staying at the resort?” Damian asked.
“He hasn’t used an IP address at that location. He must have been staying somewhere else.”
Felix looked around the parking lot, smelling the scent of the maniac growing stronger.
“That’s him,” he said in a low voice.
“Let’s get him,” Thorne said.
The brothers dropped into wolf form and charged into the parking lot, and seconds later they surrounded the stalker. They growled and snapped, and the pathetic little prick squealed like a pig.
Felix shifted into human form, tall and broad and proud. He walked to the man and grabbed him by the chest.
“You will stay the hell away from Jasmine Flume,” he growled, low and threatening in his throat.
“Who the hell are you?” Chris squealed.
“I’m her mate. And I won’t hesitate to bite off your face if I ever see it on Fate Island again.”
“She’s nothing,” the man yelped. “You can have her. She’s just a stupid whore.”
Felix raised his fist and popped Chris in the jaw. The man’s head snapped back, and he fell to the ground. The brothers jumped on top of him, their teeth gripping his limbs. Felix walked over to him with a clenched fist.
“You will stay away from her no matter where she goes. If you ever harass her in person or online again, I swear I will track you down and let my brothers have their way with you.”
“Believe him. He’s a master hacker,” Blake said after shifting.
“I was just leaving,” Chris yelped.
“We’re escorting you to the ferry.”
Felix tossed the man into the driver’s seat and the brothers jumped into the back. Felix road up front in human form. He was naked. But he was going to do what he had to do to keep his mate safe.
“I can make your life hell. In so many ways,” Felix said, letting his wolf come through is voice.
“She’s not worth it.”
At the docks, Felix and his brothers shifted and jumped out of the car. Chris pulled into the line to get on the ferry, leaving that afternoon.
They waited, and watched the blue truck finally drive onto the ferry. Slowly, the boat left the docks and moved out to sea.
The brothers howled at the sun and turned to run through town, back to the bookstore. When they arrived, the brothers ran upstairs to the apartment, and Rex found them all clothes for the ride home.
“What happened?” Jasmine asked when Felix walked back downstairs.
“He’s gone. Left on the ferry, and he’ll never bother you again. Online or in person.”
“Thank you,” Jasmine said, throwing her arms around his neck.
He rubbed her back.
“We’ll all see to that,” Rex said, and the other brothers stood in solidarity.
“Believe them when they tell you that,” Dalia said.
“It’s absolutely true,” said Venus.
When Felix, Jasmine, and Blake made it home, Felix ordered Chinese takeout and the three of them sat at the dining room table to recount exactly what had happened.
“I wish I’d gotten to see the look on his face,” Jasmine said.
“It was priceless. It will be burned into my memory for the rest of my life,” Felix said.
“I’m glad I was able to help you find justice,” Blake said. “It really makes me think about my life and what I’m doing with myself.”
Felix was glad to hear that.
“I can’t believe that it’s finally over. I thought that coming to Alaska would help me find peace, but I’ve found so much more.”
