the others. “ Most scattered when we escaped.”
    “I need you guys to get a definite head count, names or whatever you can. We need to track them down.” Jared turned toward Damon. “Can you take a few of these guys with you and meet us at the warehouse?”
    Damon nodded as Sid headed for the small shack. “I’ll get dickhead and me e t you all there.”
    “You take them.” Jared nodded behind him at the other half-breed s who had ventured closer. “I’ll go with these two.” He glanced at Tessa , waiting for her to argue, but she just raised both eyebrows as if she was totally innocent of what he was looking at her for.
    Sid walked out with Chad who glared at Damon, but kept his mouth shut. Then his focus turned on Adam and Tessa. “You know he had big plans for you.” He chuckled when he nodded toward Tessa. “ Especially you , baby doll .”
    Sid pushed Chad past them when both Damon and Jared growled. “You are the stupidest son of a bitch I’ve ever met. Shut the fuck up and move before I pick you up and throw your ass to the car.”
    Chad tripped catching himself, but laughed loudly. “Just wait.” His annoying derange d giggle floated through the fog that was starting to settle in the dusk. “This isn’t over by a long shot.”
    “I can kill him now.” Damon snarled his golden eyes turning black as they followed Chad.
    Jared felt the same damn way, but the y needed him. He had more information, he knew it. “In good time , budd y.” Jared headed toward the car, opening the passenger side door for Tessa holding out his hand.
    Tessa stood there staring at him. “What?”
    “Get in and give me the keys. I’m driving.” Jared glanced around making sure everyone was accounted for before looking back down at her , his hand still outstretched.  Adam had already gotten into the backseat of the Mustang.
    “Ah, no way. I’m driving.” Tessa shook her head. “This is my boss’s car and if any thing happens to it it’s my ass….literally.”
    “Give me the keys Tessa.” His tone w as as firm as his glare.
    “No.” Backing away Tessa stuck them in her front pocket with a smirk . “I drive or you walk.”
    Jared grabbed her so fast , sticking his hand in her front pocket fishing out the keys , that Tessa didn’t have time to react. He dangled the keys in front of her. “Who’s walking?”
    Tessa made a grab at them, but he was faster, way faster. Slapping her hands on her hips Tessa frowned. “You’ re an asshat.”
    T il ting his head Jared chuckled. “Yeah, well you’re a pain in my asshat. Get in the damn car.” He gently, but firmly guided her into the front seat.
    “Brute.” Tessa hissed yanking her arm from his grasp.
    Making sure all her body parts were in he slammed the door. Walking around the back of the car he smiled. “Asshat ? ” he chuckled. Where in the hell d id she come up with her insults?
    “You better not put one scratch on this car.” Tessa fumed from the passenger seat.
    Jared reached over and snapped her seat belt while she slapped at his hands again . Adam chuckled from the backseat. Starting the car Jared re v ved the engine for a few seconds. Glancing over at Tessa who was sneering at him , he grinned. “ You know one wo uld think out of the thousands of years I’ ve been on this earth I would have gotten my driver’s license .”
    Tessa ’s eyes popped open wide. “You don’t have your drive……”
    Not giving her a chance to finish her screaming protest Jared gave her a wink as he jammed it in reverse at a high rate of speed , then proceeded to shift into gear sweeping them into a full sliding turn heading forward down the driveway going so fast rocks pinged against the beautiful red paint.

 
Chapter 6
    Tessa stood in an angry pose, foot tapping, glaring at Jared. They were inside what they called the warehouse , which looked more like a workout gym . Thank God there had been no pings in the car, because Bobby would have had a shit fit.
