Remy was irritated to say the least. Megan had not arrived yet and he was pissed. He was a fool for actually giving her 48 hours. That was too much time.
Remy sat in his office, contemplating whether or not to send Megan another message. He had not heard from her and figured she might need another nudge.
He concentrated hard on Joe's location; he was on the outskirts of the Warehouse District. It was one of the few abandoned apartment buildings he owned and used for illegal purposes.
"Yes Boss."
Joe answered his silent call.
"I need you to take another picture of the woman and send it to Megan. No message this time, just send a picture of her tied up."
"Yes Boss."Joe went into the bedroom and found Mama Louisa still asleep. He took the picture as instructed and pushed send.
"It's done Boss."
He sent a copy to Remy as well, and left the room.
That should get an answer at least thought Remy, and waited for a call from his elusive prey. He picked up his phone and saw that he had missed a call from Drusilla.
A wicked smile sliced across his face as he figured out a way to kill a little time. The witch would be a much better distraction than just sitting around. He put on his coat and left for Drusilla's house.

Jackson looked at the two cousins; Megan and Maddie sitting on the couch speaking quietly. Sullivan had reluctantly given the women their space and Stephan was at the bar playing a video game. All was well in Jackson's world, for now that is. He didn't know what tomorrow would bring.
He decided now was as good a time as any to call the Alpha of the Boscoyo pack.
"Hello Napoleon. How are things in Baton Rouge?"
"Everything here is going well, things have calmed down now that Mardi Gras is over." The Alpha laughed. "I know this is probably not a social call, so how can I help you Jackson?"
"I was wondering if you knew someone by the name of Remy Sandorian."
The Boscoyo Alpha took a while to answer. Sighing he said, "What has my nephew done now?"
Jackson was shocked. This man was Napoleon's nephew. Why didn't he know about him?
"I am sorry Napoleon; I had no idea who he was." Jackson apologized.
"He is family, but he was banished from our pack over a century ago. We kept it quiet and he promised to change his name." Napoleon explained. "But my question is still unanswered what has he done?"
"He has kidnapped my mate's grandmother a woman who she calls Mama Louisa."
"He has taken the Voodoo woman? Has he no sense at all" The alpha ranted. "She is very powerful, just a touch of her skin can give her power over you."
"He has threatened to kill her, unless Megan returns to New Orleans by tomorrow night."
"Remy has no conscious Jackson, if he said he'd kill her; then he will."
"With all due respect Napoleon, I can't allow that to happen." Jackson was trying to be diplomatic, but where his mate's family was concerned there could be no exception.
"It has been over a hundred years, and Remy still feels like he doesn't have to answer to anyone. My sister will be devastated to find out he is causing trouble again."
"Napoleon my mate is The Fiery One of the Blood Moon Prophesy. Megan used to be involved with Remy. We think he wants to mate with her and alter the Prophesy."
The older man hissed in disgust, his nephew hadn't changed a bit. He still wanted to take over the world and didn't care how he did it.
"First you have my congratulations and before you can ask; I offer you my help. Your father Anderson and I have always shared a great respect for one another. I will be honored to assist you and your mate."
The door to Napoleon's office opened and his mate Joslyn walked in followed by their son Bachtrane.
"Jackson let me get a few things in order and I will call you back in about an hour." Napoleon hung up the phone and looked at his family before him.
"What is it you two, that was a very important phone call?"
"Bachtrane has news of Remy and thinks it is important enough for you to hear."
"Father; Raphael and I think that Remy has kidnapped his grandmother, Mama Louisa."
"I was just talking to Jackson Clarion. He informed me that Remy is holding Mama Louisa hostage. He wants Megan back. We all know this is not meant to be. Luna will punish Remy greatly. Her patience is running out where he is concerned."
"How does Jackson know about Remy?"
"It seems that The Ebony Alpha has found his mate, my son."
"Wow! We just sent Megan to Boston, how did he find her."
"Her cousin Maddie had something to do with it. It's a long story that we can discuss later. Where is Raphy?"
"That is why I needed to talk to you father. Raphael has been following Remy for the last few hours. He is sure that Remy will lead him to where Mama Louisa is being held."
"When did you find out she was missing?" Joslyn asked.
"Last night, we went to her house to ask, if we could use the masking potion. We found her groceries scattered on the sidewalk, and her house was in a mess."
"Call Raphael and tell him to sit tight. We know all of Remy's hiding places, and we will find his grandmother." The Alpha ordered.
"He will kill Raphael if he finds out he is following him." Joslyn cautioned. "Remy is ruthless."
"Raphael is using the masking potion Mama. As long as Remy doesn't see him he will be safe."
"Call him anyway I want him aware of what he is up against." Bachtrane nodded and took out his phone.

Raphael Boulet was a very handsome man. His dark brown hair was long and brushed the collar of his shirt. His light brown eyes hid a sadness that no one had been able to erase.
Before he had been bitten, he had loved to fish and hunt with his dogs by his side.
Now dogs feared him and he had lost the life he used to lead. He had not believed in werewolves, but now he was one of them, bitten by a rouge wolf and left to die.
Thank God his parents would never know what had happened to their only child.
They had passed away long ago and his new family the Boscoyo pack, made this new life easier for him to accept.
Now all he had to do was protect what was left of his family, and that meant keeping Remy in his sights. Raphael was very careful to keep his distance. Remy had no idea he was being followed and that made him easy to trace.
They should have known he would retaliate against them for hiding Megan.
Remy had a reputation for violence and that made Raphael fear for his grandmother's safety.
The red Mercedes coup stopped at a small house at the end of the street and Remy got out. He walked up to the porch and the door opened before he even knocked.
The woman who opened the door was one of the most beautiful women Raphael had ever seen. His wolf perked up and took a closer look. Remy walked into the house as if he owned the place and she closed the door.
As Raphael waited he thought about the woman who had opened the door. She had long black hair that made her look almost exotic. She was of average height, and her ample breasts had strained against the silky material of the robe she was wearing.
Just the thought of her had him so excited, his erection painfully pressed against his zipper.
"Get yourself together Raphy!" He told himself. "You have a job to do." He sank deeper into his seat, grateful that he had tinted windows and settled in to wait.
His phone rang and he was glad to see that it was Bachtrane.
"Hey man what's up?" He asked his friend.
"Just checking to see where you are, do you have Remy in your sights?"
"Yeah he is on Burgundy Street visiting a woman, if you know what I mean." Raphael joked.
"Raphy, Father has instructed me to tell you not to approach Remy under any circumstances. He is sending help. Remy is too dangerous for you to take on alone."
"I will try to do that Bachtrane. But if I find Mama Louisa, I can't promise to stand by and watch him hurt her. Who knows what he may have done already?" Raphael began to get angry just thinking about his grandmother at the mercy of that sick bastard.
Napoleon took the phone from Bachtrane, "This is not a request Raphy, and it is an order. We will be there in an hour; you know how fast we drive."
Raphael had to laugh at that. "Yes my Alpha, I will follow orders." Raphael felt his Alpha's warm concern spread throughout their bond and he was immediately calm.
Putting his phone in his pocket he leaned back against the headrest to wait for Remy to leave the house.
