to stay here and watch him. He can link me when Eros is on the move.” She said.

We made our way back to the Howling Dogs night club; we saw a group of college kids approach the doors and try to enter. They were turned away by the guards and the club didn’t appear to be open.

“If the night club isn’t open, than why would two security guards be posted out front?” I said to Rocky.

“Something is very suspicious here.” She said.

We walked around the block, down a narrow alley way to the backside of the club. The lower level windows had bars on them. They had been blacked out so we couldn’t see in or out. I was considering standing on top of the garbage can that was nearby and trying to see if the windows on the top level were open.

“Someone is coming.” Rocky whispered.

“Quick behind here.” I motioned to the garbage can.

We ducked behind it and crouched down in the shadows. One of Eros’ security guards from the front had walked around the back. He pulled his zipper open and started to pee against the building. Rocky gave me a gagging look and I suppressed a laugh. I willed his urine, which was mostly made of water, to splash back up his shirt. He started swearing in Greek and pissing all over his shoes and pants.

“The coast is clear.” I whispered to Rocky.

“That was brilliant.” She giggled.

“I think I could reach the top window if I stand on the garbage can and look in.” I said. We moved the garbage can in position and I climbed on top of it. I was about a foot too short to see in.

“I’ll get on there too and give you a boost up.” Rocky said.

I put one foot on each of her thighs and was able to look in. It appeared to be an office. I tried to lift the window open, but it was locked.

“The other window next to the office looks like it could be a bathroom window, there’s a good chance it might be unlocked.” I suggested.

We moved the garbage can over and did the same. This window was slightly higher and smaller, but it was unlocked. Quietly and slowly, I lifted the window open and tried to pull myself up. I had to step on Rocky’s shoulder and my shoe got stuck on something and slipped off my foot. I pulled myself into the small bathroom and looked out the window at Rocky who had my shoe stuck in her Medusa head snakes.

“Be careful she whispered to me. If you’re not back in twenty minutes, Leo and I will come in for you.” Rocky said.

I gave her a thumbs up and closed the window but didn’t lock it. I turned around and slowly walked out to the office and made my way to the door. Stopping at the door, I listened closely and heard nothing. I walked down the hall and tip toed down the stairs to the first level.

There was a door with a small window, and I peeked through it. It appeared to be the club but had been vandalized. Tables, chairs and booths had been destroyed, glass smashed, claw marks in the floor, what the hell happened here I wondered. Then I heard a noise.

“I have to fucking change my clothes!” A man was yelling. “I’ll be back in ten minutes, just go upstairs and stand watch, Marty went to go get some food and the boss wants the front door guarded.”

I heard some footsteps coming from the basement and pulled the door open to the cleaning closet. The smell of chemicals was strong which would help mask my scent. Their steps were getting closer and they walked right by me and out through the club.

When I couldn’t hear them anymore, I stepped out of the closet and dashed to the basement. I reached into my purse pouch and took out my lighter in case I needed it. I entered the small room at the bottom and found a recliner chair, laptop, and small table sitting by the door. Someone was obviously spending time down here keeping guard.

On the opposite side of the room was a sink, microwave and mini fridge. I looked down at the table and found a set of keys, so I grabbed them. The other door seemed to lead into another room, I opened the door and found four cells. Three of the four cells had occupants and one was Angela.

“Angela.” I called out.

“Who are you?” Her trembling voice asked. I was unrecognizable in the costume.

“It’s me, Raven. Rocky is outside and we’re here to get you out.” I placed the lighter back in my purse and started inserting the keys into the locks, I finally unlocked hers with the fourth try.

“Raven, we can’t leave them here.” She said about the other girls and I nodded my head.

These guys were monsters, one of the girls couldn’t have been older than fifteen, and they were going to sell her. They looked scared and nervous. I stood frozen for a moment and heard a noise thanks to my wolf hearing.

“Stay right here and work on unlocking the cells. Don’t come out until I come to get you.” I told Angela and she nodded.

I slipped out the door and went to the sink in the first room. “What are you doing here?” A wolf appeared at the door.

“Hello, I was thirsty and needed a drink.” I turned on the sink.

“Well I’m horny and need a fuck, what do you say sexy wood nymph?” He smiled and adjusted himself moving closer to me.
