Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)

Chapter 126 “You’re on speaker, Bunny,” I answer. “You’re alive and like you didn’t call?” she growls. “Sorry, I’m still processing it,” I roll my eyes but f****k. It feels good to know that she feels relieved to know I’m alive. “Surprise, I’m alive,” “Are you okay?” she sighs. “Where are you?” “I’m trying to get my mother-in-law back without ****ing her up too badly,” 0 +5 “Shit. Oh, my goddess. Perry, it was the most f****ed up thing I’ve ever witnessed,” her voice is filled with emotion. “Princess Andromeda was so happy to be back home and then she heard the King arguing with their mom and now she wants her dead. Annie was such a Daddy’s Girl,” “How is she doing?” “She’s with the King now. They’re in a meeting. I think he’s instating her into the board of directors,” “She’s seventeen,” but I don’t know if that’s any of my business. “The King was fifteen when he became a chairman. He was dealing and marketing way before that,” she dismisses me. “Can I call you back?” “You’re good, right? To be alone, I mean. Lillies and I will be where you are if you need us,” “Thanks, Bunny but I’m okay. If hearing the Royal gossip was a lot for you, I doubt you can stomach what I’m doing,” I say moving a beaker closer to the stove. “I’ll call you back if my next call goes well,” “Kay, be safe, Nothing reckless, your grace,” she hangs up. I dial for the Lycan King. “Hey,” he answers immediately. “Have you eaten?” “I am eating right now,” I glance over at the burgers on the counters. “I heard you’re adding Andromeda to the board of directors?”

“F***k no. She’s with me. I’m trying to convince her to join the Luna program at Nova. I think learning pack laws will teach her something. I don’t know. I’m not very good at parenting a teenager,” he groans. “She keeps asking about what I’m going to do with Mom and James. Who told you that? Bunny?” “No,” I deny it. Maybe a little too fast. “Are you also making Nate clean out my failed programs?” “Just a few. Lillies is reviewing some of this stuff and she’s kind of picking out what would work best for us and what we’re willing to let the Lessers work on,” “Lessers being other wolves?” I huff. “I didn’t mean it like that,” he gets defensive immediately. “I don’t care. I’m teasing you,” I laugh. “Thate you,” he says jokingly. “Please, stop f****ing with me. I don’t think I’m there yet,” “For the remainder of this call, maybe,” 08:08 Sat, Nov 9 Chapter 126 ¥86%會 “What are you doing?” he asks. “I am making tranquilizer darts for your mother. I did a supply run in Gorgon. Looks like I’m running solo into your mother’s pack,” “Mackenzie bail?” +5 “Not exactly,” I look up at her to see her staring at the T.V. like it’s the first time she’s ever watched it in her entire existence. “I have to talk to you about something. If all things go well, maybe I can catch up with you in Nova in a couple of days. I’m not sure how to move forward with it,” “Does it involve Mackenzie?” “Yeah, and the old man,” “I don’t like you being alone out there if she’s going to be clocking out like that, Perry. I can have Jordan there in a few hours,” “I got something for you,” I say when my eyes land on the glowing blue containers on the table. “I

was talking to a buddy of mine and he gave me the number to a feral psyche specialist. The same doctor that treated Eloise Lockwood,” “Dr. Clarise Miller,” he says. “She’s not an easy Hellion to find,” “I know, which is why I accepted the card. I got you blue monkshood for James. It’s already prepared,” “Now why would you go and do that?” I can hear the c****y f**k’s smirk in his tone. “Call me sentimental. I picked it up from you,” I remove the beaker from the heat. “You have no idea how much better you’re making my day,” he sighs. “I’d love a report when we meet up. Maybe we can make a day out of it so we can discuss removing my mother from the board completely. I don’t know who I’m going to replace her with,” “Roy,” I answer. “Hm?” I hear another voice hum. “Is he listening?” “He is,” he laughs. “He’s going to be taking over Cliffside. Not much to do there. If you want to build on the Lycan economy, we should start building into the hills. Silas has the dome plans and setups. You can use your Superchips to power three more domes,” “Bl***dy hell, there are two of you now. Auntie got out just in time,” Roy grunts. “Working hard then, Lycan King?” I laugh. “You bet your sweet a**. Be careful. Eat. Get some rest tonight, please.” “I’m eating and I will do my best to sleep tonight,” I promise. “I’ll see you in a couple of days, Lycan Queen,” he says satisfied. “You guys are gross,” I hear Roy tease him just as the line cuts off As I fill the empty darts, a sort of ice-cold sensation goes up my pine. My attention snaps to the couch where I left Mackenzie to find her gone. I go around the island to look for her and find her in one of the rooms, She’s holding her arm out counting down. I watch as she pulls her arm back, tucks it into her chest to cradle it, and turns on her side. 08:08 Sat, Nov 9 This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Chapter 126 “Cold,” she whispers. I go over to her taking the folded blanket at the end of the bed and tuck her in. “You okay?” I whisper. I glance over at the alarm clock on the nightstand to see it’s eight oh two. “Thank you, Mommy,” she mumbles and falls asleep. 86% My chest constricts as tears slip from her eyes. I stay with her for a bit. I dim the lights in the room and leave it a tiny bit open so I can listen in on any changes. ก +5 Mack’s always been very sensitive. The beast inside of her is very demanding. There are times when I can’t tell if it’s the wolf talking or her. There are times when it’s just her and she’s an absolute delight. Then there’s this side to her. The perfectly compartmentalized parts that sneak up on her. They take over and they force her to submit to the wounds none of us really ever heal from. I make sure anything she can use to harm herself is hidden away before I leave. I almost stay, but staying means that I have to deal with my own shit and it’s not an option at the moment. I don’t want to think about what could have happened if I had stayed dead. I don’t want to think about Darren or Crystal.
