{Ashes to Mathias} The Confrontation

Dia Rivera

July 1 

*Losing Mathias and my lab was a small glitch in my ultimate plane. Word was out that Lucan had sent Mathias to the UK along with Malcom and his Clan. Taps chin in thought. Humm. Perhaps I need to make a few phone calls to a few of my contact*

  Aine Declain *Knocks on Dia's office door before walking in. Tossing several different newspapers down on his desk, all covering the rescue and destruction.* Daddy is gonna be pissed! I hope you have plans on cleaning this mess up. Preferably ones that don't include my "help". *Turns and walks out*

  Dia Rivera *Snarls as the female turns away* GET your ass back in here Declain. I believe it is YOU and YOUR father that have some explaining to do.

  Aine Declain *Stops at the door, whipping my head around* US?!?! *Stakes over to his desk, slamming my hands down and leaning towards him* First of all, I did EXACTLY what was asked of me. And second, I seriously doubt this came about as a result of anything that Father or I did. I didn't so much as breathe a word of it to anyone. And I'm sure Daddy was very careful. He always is. So don't even think of trying to pin this mishap on either of us!

  Dia Rivera *Walking around the oak desk I block her exit*. Sit the fuck down female. You have a hell of a lot explaining to do. First off WHERE is your FATHER?

  
  
• 

  Aine Declain *Turns and sits on the edge of his desk* How the hell should I know? He doesn't check his schedule with me and I've stopped asking. I learned over the years it doesn't do any good anyways. He only tells what he wants known.

  Dia Rivera *Taking her foot in hand I look at the small crescent moon and tear drop. It was a very good imitation. Tat artist had perfected their technique these past 20 year. * What game are you playing, female?

  
  
• 

  Aine Declain *Furrows my brow as he rubs his thumb back and forth over my ankle* I don't know what you're talking about. *Pulling my foot away, I quickly stand and get into his face* What are you up to? You capture Mathias just to skimp on his security and let them take him back. Are we just handing over prisoner's now?

  Dia Rivera *My irises narrows and the amber glow sweeps over her form* I answer to no ONE, least of all females. All is going to plan. Knowing Mathias he has told Lucan Thorne all about you, and how he worries that you poor little breedmate is being used by the likes of me. I am betting that soon you will be contacted, because they have this need to protect. *Snorts* Your father did something right when he had you tattooed. But I wonder how he plans for you to fool the Order when they question why you have no unique scent. *Snickers* From what I hear Lucan won't be happy being played. He has no love for humans.

  Aine Declain *My eyes flare with anger as I push on his chest* How dare you! I did not agree to help you beyond luring Mathias up to my apartment. If they did contact me, the only reason I would keep my mouth shut is because that would be my father's wish. *Pushes back on his chest again* But don't you think for a minute that I do anything to help you. You haven't even given me reason to trust you, let alone work with you.

  Dia Rivera *Grabbing her wrist I yank her close, my fang emerging in anger* YOU will do what I tell you to. Your absentee father is NOT in charge and trust? I have never trusted either of you. You are noting but food to those of us at the top of the food chain. Now find your father. He has some explaining to do.

  Aine Declain *Gasping as he tugs me close. The anger in his words flowing over my skin. Glancing down at his glistening fangs before wrenching my wrist free and pushing him hard. Smirking as he stumbles back a few steps.* Try it and I'll have your fangs as earrings! As for finding my father, you have flunkies for that. Good luck! *Pushes past him as storms out the door*
