Chapter 61.1-A Fallen Starr

Whatever job the boss had in mind Johnny knew it had to be important.   The boss never took needless risks and was a master at covering his tracks. The warlock who Johnny held captive lived in Aurora Skies and could identify him, so Johnny knew he had to be careful.  If Johnny was recognized he would be taking the fall for the kidnapping as he knew that testifying against the boss would be suicidal.   Even from prison Denny's reach was long and Johnny knew he had to remain loyal if he wanted to stay alive. The only thing Johnny never expected was to literally be thrown to the wolves.

Denny: You remember my neice, Starr?

Johnny: Who could forget a hot number like that?  You told me to stay away from her.

Denny:  That was then, this is now.  She owns shares of Landgraab Industries and it is vital to my operation to purchase those shares from her.  I would like you to convince her to sell those shares to me and I don't care how you have to do it.  Use whatever method of convincing you need to and don't let the fact that she is my neice stop you.

Johnny:  I'll just have to turn on the ole charm that should get her to agree.

Denny: Don't even think about coming back here empty handed.

Johnny: No worries boss I'll have that bitch eating right out of my hands.  There is no woman alive who can resist my charms and if she does, she will regret it.

Johnny could have just called her but in this case he wanted the element of surprise so all he had to do was arrange a chance meeting.  Finding a way to run into Starr accidentally was easy as pie all the tabloids kept track of the party girl Landgraab heiress.  All he had to do was hang out in one of the dance club around town as she would eventually show up.  However there was a problem the first time he did find her, she was not alone.

She had some vampire with her and they seemed very close.  Well this would not do, there was no way he could romance her with that guy hanging around.  He had to find a way to get her alone, so he decided to bide his time and wait for another opportunity.

A week later Johnny had the opportunity he was waiting for as Starr was out clubbing again but this time no vampire.  Starr and Nick were indeed dating on and off but they were not exclusive.  Starr was not ready to give up her lifestyle yet and Nick had a regular 9 to 5 job so he couldn't go out club hopping as often as she wanted to.   They decided they take things slow as they got to know each other better and by mutual agreement they would date others.

Johnny: Hey there pretty lady?

Starr: Giancarlo, what brings you back to Aurora Skies?

Johnny:  Decided to come home and what a homecoming it is.

Starr:  Welcome home I hope you enjoy your stay.  Now if you will excuse me.....

Johnny: What is the rush pretty lady, we had fun before we can have fun again.

Johnny: Let me buy you a drink?  Maybe a little dancing?

When she met Giancarlo on prom night he seemed like her dream.  A dream that she grew out of after living it out in Egypt.  At the time that dream had her rethinking her life but now she knew what she had with Giancarlo was only a fling.   She still was still tempted by him as she couldn't resist taking another walk on the wild side with guy who came from the other side of the tracks.  Maybe a little dancing and a couple of drinks couldn't hurt but he wasn't getting an invitation into her bedroom tonight.  What she didn't know was woohoo was not an issue tonight, he was after a different prize.

They did indeed have a wonderful time they had a few drinks and indulged in some bubbles, but most of all they danced until the club was ready to close.

Against her better judgement she ignored her sixth sense once again telling her to stay away from this man.  Grandpa Wolfie told her a sixth sense was a gift to all wolves and that it would help her avoid all dangerous situations.  She thought she was fine because if she was in real danger the wolf would come out and she would be able to protect herself.

Johnny: It's getting late pretty lady, maybe I should take you home.

She was a little high, super juiced and in no way, shape or form to drive. Something told her to call a cab, but again she ignored it.

They went back to her house and Johnny decided to go straight for business as soon as possible.  He really did hope she would cooperate because it would be a shame to mess up that sexy ass.

Johnny: I was actually looking for you tonight as a friend asked me to do a favor.  Do you have any shares in your Grandfather's company?  A friend would like to purchase them and he will pay any price that you ask.

Starr:  I'm sorry but my shares are not for sale.  What do you think keeps me in the lifestyle I have grown accustomed to?

What Johnny didn't know was not only did Starr not want to sell her shares, she couldn't without Grandpa Wolfie's approval.  Only Landgraab family heirs knew that Wolfie had to approve all stock sales as Chris' will was designed to keep the Landgraab family in control of 51% of the stock.  There was no way on Earth Grandpa Wolfie would ever give permission.

Starr:  My family stocks are not for sale, end of discussion.

That answer was totally unacceptable to Johnny no woman ever says no to Johnny Devito, not for business or anything else.  He fully intended to get those shares even if he had to kill her to do it.

Johnny: You know what I can make a mean Margarita, how about if we have just have one more before I go home.  I promise you won't regret it.

Johnny asked her to see if she had any lime juice in the kitchen as he started to prepare a special drink just for Starr.  She wasn't cooperating and he knew he needed to use other methods to get her to agree.  Johnny wasn't stupid as he knew werewolves had brute strength, no one could beat them in a fight.  He couldn't take down even a female werewolf and he had to work this one over, unless of course she changed her mind.  He laced the drink with a drug commonly used for date rapes but tonight he was using it to make sure, she didn't turn into a werewolf.

When she came back with the lime juice, he finished making the drinks which she finished in no time.  He knew he it wouldn't be long for the drug to take affect so he kept her talking until she fell right off of the barstool.

Starr tried to get up but her knee's buckled and she was falling down again.  The room was practically spinning and she was nauseous.  She knew she had a lot to drink tonight but not enough to make her this sick, something was wrong and she was beginning to feel faint.  It was than she felt the urge to let the wolf out but she didn't have the strength inside of her to do so.  Now she knew she was in real danger.

Starr:  I think you should leave, I'm starting to feel a bit ill.

Johnny:  I'm going to ask you one more time and you better come up with the right answer this time. Are you going to sell those shares.

Starr: No you don't understand  I...I...I can't?

Johnny: Wrong answer!
