Rebekah laughed. She couldn't help it. She actually doubled over laughing at the girl. "Dear child, is that why Castor sold you to me? Because the cops came? Really? I would have expected more balls from a were-lion." She shook her head and grasped Macs hand, squeezing it gently. "If the cops come, I'll tell them to fuck off and to leave you alone. Or I'll lecture you in front of them and when the door is closed, commend you on a job well done for not believing it's a mans world and we are are all just living in it. I don't care if you bring a cop to my door, and I won't ask you to kill anyone, I'm perfectly capable of doing that on my own, or whining to Nik about whoever wronged me and let him take care of it."
She cupped the girls face to peer into her eyes, speaking seriously. "I will not abandon you and I will not turn my back on you or give up on you. Fuck Jack, wherever he may be and fuck Castor too."
