"What the fuck happened," Archie asks as he walks out his front door. 

"I killed Evelyn Evernever. Nothing too big," I say with a shrug. 

He stares in shock. "You killed her," he asks and I nod with a grin. 

"It felt fucking fantastic," I say and he seems horrified. "Feeling her body go limp as I tore out her throat. The feeling of her skull shattering under my foot. Next is Edgar. I'm gonna make him suffer," I say and then I feel Archie's arms wrap around me. 

"You fucking dumbass," he whispers. "Do you realize how dumb that was? He could have killed you," he says and pulls away from me. 

"He didn't though. I planned everything out perfectly," I say and he stares at me and then sighs.

"Lets go inside. You need to get cleaned up and then we can talk more," he whispers and leads me inside. 

...

Archie hands me a pile off clothes and I walk into the bathroom. I turn the shower in and strip off my blood soaked clothes. I step in and sigh happily. This is so relaxing. I watch as the water takes on a bright red color. 

I take my time washing the blood off my body.  The shower feels so nice and I'd also like to not have any more blood on me.

It's such a weird thing to think about it. The idea of hurting or even killing anyone would usually disgust me but it felt so good to kill Evelyn. Maybe it was just because of the revenge against Edgar. He'll die soon too so they won't be separated long.

Is this why Reggie had such a high on it? Actually I'd rather not think about that. Or him.

Then there's... Luke. I don't know what I'm going to do. It was a long time ago, but...

I have an idea. I cant bring Jordan back. That's not possible, but I think there is a spell to speak to the dead. It's one of the darker and is considered a demonic spell, but I need the clarity. I need to see him one last time and maybe give him some peace, if I can.

It'll take some work but he deserves it. I deserve it.

I finish showering quick, needing to start as soon as I could. I dry off quick and put on the clothes Archie gave me. I pull my shoes on and walk out.

"Let's talk," Archie says and crosses his legs on his bed so that there's room for me.

"Okay. I just need to text Jasmin and ask for a favor," I say and grab my phone.

I ask her to look through her spell book and find the spell. She just says sure and that's it. I wonder if she knows how demonic the spell might be.

"Tell me the whole story," he says and I sit next to him.

So I told him. From starting from finding the owner of the knife to nearly killing Hiram and his bodyguard person. Then going to Luke's and then everything that happened when I went to confront Edgar. When I mentioned Alice I could see the shock in his face and then the pain of knowing how destroyed Betty would be. Then the conversation with Edgar and what I found out about Luke. Then the murder of Evelyn.

He wrapped his arms around me and I just let myself finally go weak. I buried my head in his shoulder and let myself cry. So much had happened and I've been so angry that I never let myself really deal with it. The loss of my mother hit hard at first and then I went numb and hadn't felt much until the anger hit.

We stayed like that for awhile. Him holding me and letting me cry. Archie has always taken care of me. He was like my brother or something. I don't think I could ever honestly have a thing for him. He's hot, but that isn't enough.

We parted and I wiped my eyes. "Thank you Archie," I whisper and he smiles.

"I'll always be here for you," he says and I smile.

"So what do you want to do," he asks and I bite my lip.

"Honestly? I wanna do the unhealthy thing and go fuck my feelings away, which is a terrible idea, but I can't deal with this Luke shit yet," I whisper and he sighs and hugs me again.

"I don't think I'm one to talk," he chuckles and I smile.

"You aren't wrong," I say and we both laugh.

"Okay," he says and stands, reaching his hand out so he can pull me up. "I'll  drop you off," he says and I smile.

...

I step out of Archie's truck and smile at him. "Thank you," I say and he smiles softly.

"Anytime. So what or who are you going to do," he asks and I flush a bit. 

"I mean, if they're interested, I think Sweet Pea and Fangs would be a very fun time. Not like it'd be the first time," I mutter to myself and his eyes go wide. Stupid werewolf hearing. "I was drunk okay," I say and he rolls his eyes. 

"Well have fun and be careful not to get bit," he says and I laugh softly. 

"No promises Arch," I say and he chuckles before saying goodbye and driving off. 

I walk to the trailer and knock on the door. I hear some shuffling and a grunt before the door opens and Sweet Pea, in only a pair of boxers opens. 

"Well that's a nice sight," I say and look him up and down. "Definitely want to take those off though," I say and he stares in shock. "Well as long as you and Fangs are okay with it at least," I say and I hear the other male in the trailer approach and look at his boyfriend. 

Sweet Pea grabs my arm and pulls me inside and his lips immediately attach to mine and I smile. This is gonna be fun. 

So here's the newest update. Just a slight update. I have chapters stockpiled, but they will come out slowly, since I plan on going back to Not Your Lap Dog and rewriting some of the chapters and updating some of the older ones in this book. Then I'll be working on some other fics while slowly releasing the chapters for this one. Some stories will be put off indefinitely and a new one may drop soon. This story is of course my main focus, but I don't want to only focus on this. I love writing this fic, but I don't want to wear myself out and not enjoy it. So yeah. See you in the next chapter :)
