Unknown's POV
"Guys, stop being so f*****g immature and actually act like civilized people for one damn mission!" I screamed, seething with anger. These two are gonna have a short life if they don't listen and do as I say.
They both signed an agreement so now they must do as I say or else I'll kill them. I watched as Ryder and James turned their heads my way, giving me their undivided attention.
"Sorry master." They muttered simultaneously.
"Did you at least get the job done?" I snapped, rubbing my temples.
Ryder shifted nervously in his chair which gave me my answer. I groaned and slammed my fist on the desk in front of me. "Dammit Ryder! What stopped you? She's just a stupid human girl!"
Ryder blushed but quickly looked away, embarrassed and ashamed then that's when it all came together.
He has a crush on her.
My anger slowly subsided and my lips tugged upwards with an idea forming in my head. Ryder looked up and gave me a nervous and confused look, probably freaked out because I'm not throwing things and trying to kill him.
"I have an idea." I smiled evilly and both of my men visibly gulped.

Crystal's POV
I jumped out of the shower and dried off as quick as I could, throwing on one of my stripper outfits.
The outfit I picked had blue tight thong-like underwear, my top was an extremely tight belly shirt that made my cleavage pop, I even had a little Officer badge and hat that went with the outfit.
I sighed and put my boots on, they're black and they have 3-4 inch heels on the back. I threw on my jacket and wrapped myself up, saying goodbye to Ruthless then leaving to go to the strip club.
I was walking down the street when someone, a male, ran up from behind me and said something but I didn't even spare him a glance.
"Hello? I asked you something!" The male sighed, exasperated.
I glanced at him briefly then returned my gaze to the sidewalk in front of me. "What do you want? Can't you see I'm busy?" I snapped.
"Damn, I was just wondering why you're wearing such a... slutty outfit..." He trailed off
"Well don't treat me like one. I'm nothing like them w****s, I actually have a reason." I said coldly, feeling myself become more protective of my walls I didn't dare break. I won't let anyone in.
My secrets are my secrets only.
"Then what is your reason? If you hate w****s then why be one?"
My heart clenched. He wouldn't understand but it's worth a shot to tell him, everyone I've ever came across who wanted to know me instantly left after I asked them this one simple question.
"Do you believe in werewolves and vampires?" I breathed, my voice a whisper.
"What?" He asked, confused by my sudden question.
"Answer." I gritted my teeth.
"Yeah, of course I do."
I sucked in a sharp breath, he's the first person who said yes. Now I can't back down from telling this stranger about my reason unless I change the subject.
"What's your name?" I questioned.
"Ryder."
"Nice name, Ryder." I said, testing out his name in my tongue.
"Thanks, what's your name?"
"Crystal."
"Pretty name Crystal."
I rolled my eyes and turned down the alleyway next to the strip club. Ryder followed which made me nervous. Why was he following me? "You can go now." I said aloud, wanting him to go.
I have a horrible feeling in my gut and I don't feel like I should trust this man.
"But Crystal, I wanted to tell you something." Ryder said. I turned around to face him but realized how close we really were. How did he get to me so fast? Last I knew he was 20 feet away...
"Make it snappy because I have a job I need to attend too." I stated, adjusting the coat that's wrapped around my arms.
"Okay..." he replied, slowly leaning down and I happened to find myself leaning in as well. Once our lips collided I felt like these lips were oddly familiar.
These lips are cold...
Cold...
He was the one who tried to bite me last night! I was about to pull away but he kept my head in place, making me freak out.
I then felt his sharp fangs release something ice cold and minty into my mouth, making me swallow involuntary.
Just as he was about to bite my lip with his fangs I kneed him in the family jewels and backed into the wall, my bottom lip quivered in nervousness.
I noticed that the he was in a lot of pain which gave me a little sign of relief and time to leave.
I quickly pulled the back door open and ran inside, still shaken up about kissing a weird guy seconds ago.
"You're late Angel!" I heard my boss shriek.
Oh no...
