An Alpha's Charge

Chapter 9



The Violent Reef

“It has been three years since you graduated from the university and took this job in your parents’ business. You are successful in designing clothes and homes. It would be best if you had a vacation. When is your birthday?” Vye asks Lane.

“It is next week I turn twenty-six; why?”

“You need a vacation, and we are going to an island where you can let loose and lose all your inhibitions plus, there is a lot of eye candy. What do you say?”

“I cannot go right now. I have too many projects, and my team needs me.”

“Bull shit, Lane, you have not relaxed since your parents died; you pushed yourself through school to finish fast, and for what? You are an alcoholic and a druggy, and you love sex. What more do you want?”

“I want a life, a normal fucking life like your brother, Vye. He and his friend raped me that first night you took me to that party; that is all I have done. I cannot function without that shit, and for once, I want to leave that life behind!” she yells at her friend.

“Well, was that necessary to yell at your bestie?”

“Because that is all you, we, do is a party. Time to grow up and live as adults, settle down, get married, and have kids. Do you not want that, Vye?”

“Nope, I enjoy my life too much, but you are coming to the island with me and letting loose like you need to. You know you want to. Go back. We leave in four hours.”

Lane got some things straightened out at work, turned her drawings in to the team to make the clothing, looked at the homes she was flipping, and put some people in charge so she could leave for vacation. This would be a pivotal moment and a change she would need. Thank goodness Vye has a private jet.

Before leaving, she snorted a line of coke and smoked a joint before Vye came to pick her up for the airport. She made sure she had what she needed from her apartment. Lane left her stuff lying around and threw the drugs down the toilet as she would not take them with her just in case she got caught. She had a reputation to uphold with her parent’s companies and staff.

After plane hopping, they checked into their rooms when they arrived at the island. Lane requested to have a space that resides over the ocean. She needed to be away from the action and wanted to be left alone for now. She needed to think about her future as she felt it necessary to sell the businesses and move further north.

Vye did not like that Lane was going out to live over the ocean, but she could do nothing about it. She knew she was losing her friend, but she was desperate to hold onto her as long as possible. Lane went to her room, unpacked her things in the dresser, and hung her clothes in the closet. She was planning to stay, and if she could get Lane to do the same thing, it was a solution where everyone would benefit.

Lane unpacked her things, put on a bathing suit, grabbed water, and headed to the beach to soak up the sun. Vye came down and found her lying in a chair reading a book, something that Vye never took her friend. Lane was starting to get agitated with Vye and did not want to be around her, for she feared she would do something horrible to her and did not want that on her hands.

They sat in silence, which was comfortable, but they started to drink, and it was unbearable hot out. Lane was beginning to get dizzy from not having anything to eat, and she looked over to Vye and rolled her eyes as she was lying there naked as a jaybird.

“I am going to get something to eat. Do you want anything?”

“Nope, got my liquid diet right here. I am all good.”

Lane gathered her things, walked to the food bar, and ordered a hamburger with fries, water, and fruit. She had been eating healthily for a while, and her body needed a lot of fuel. She also started excursing a few years back to strengthen her body, mind, and soul. She felt something would happen but had to be prepared for it.

They met inside the bar a few hours later and sat down to eat. A good-looking man was sitting alone at the bar. Vye had the notion of going up to him, but Lane kept her at the table so that she could get her friend to eat something hearty.

It does not take long for Wade to get a buzz when he notices a couple of females looking at him. He started to flirt with them, and they teased back until one of them walked over to him, placed her hand on his shoulder, and moved it to his front. She put her glass on the bar asking for another tequila sunrise drink.

She was already drunk and starting to slur her words; humans, ‘they cannot hold their liquor very well,’ he thought. She opened her purse to pay for her drink, and he glanced inside it and noticed she had some drugs packaged. His eyes lit up as he had not had any drugs in a few weeks and could stand to get high right about now.

He whispers in her ear, and she winks at him, and they walk away from the bar. They looked at her friend, and she motioned her to come along. They were all set but did not know their newfound friend was a vampire.

“What’s your poison, ladies?” Asking with a raised brow.

“Whatever you got, lover.” One stated.

“Whiskey it is, then; what else do you like with your drink?”

“What do you have?”

“Cane, some MJs, and a few others. I also have friends who will be stopping by for a later party. Like to stay and have a feast?”

“Sure, love; I have some others in my purse, so it’s free for all.”

“What are your names?”

“Vye and this are here is Lane, and your name?”

“Wade.”

Vye giggles a little while Lane rolls her eyes at her friend. She dabbles in drugs and sex but not all the time, unlike her friend Vye. She gets up, looking for the bathroom so she can prepare herself, as Lane knows it will be a long night, but she may end it sooner rather than later. She is getting tired of the whole party drug scene.

Lane feels uneasy about being there, and when she exits the bathroom, four more people come to join the party. Some have already cut the cane, snorting or rolling it in the MJs. God, these people would do anything to get high quickly. Wade had already lost his shirt, and Vye hers hanging all over each other while the others did not care what was happening.

Norric and Henry walk in, looking at what is happening, join the party and talk about what they want to happen next. Lane took note and decided to stay to see what else was said. She wondered if her friends were getting them into a situation they could never escape. She heard Wade slurring words about killing species, slaughtering them, skinning them, etc.............… Nobody noticed Lane being present and recording what the others were doing and saying.

She started to drink water, or what she thought was water, until the smell hit her nose. She put the drink down, frowning, then looked up to see what was happening in front of her eyes. Everyone was butt-ass naked and having sex with each other, girl on girl, men on men, and then with each other. It was not like she had ever done this before and enjoyed it, but something was not settling with her, and
