Bait Novel 90
Chapter 90 The package is awake and is kicking up a storm. It’s a good thing we don’t have to stop to leave this side of the city. I head towards the river bank to pick up Violetta. She’s going to be pi***d we’re late. I’ll just blame Barnes for being a b***h if she asks. Violetta Wilde is sitting at the bus stop we agreed on, playing on her phone. She looks like a twelve-year-old who ran away after her parents told her she was grounded from watching cartoons for the rest of the week. “You want some candy, little girl?” I tease pulling the e-brake so I can let her into the back seat. “What’s up, short stack?” “F**** you, Perry,” she laughs. She pulls her hoodie off and makes her way over to us. Just as I’m pulling away from the curb, the package screams out. “What the hell is that, Perry? Kidnappe more than one kid tonight?” “That’s the package,” I say looking back at her. “You didn’t know it was a person?” “I didn’t ask,” she grins. “Neither did you,” “I don’t like asking. You ou know that,” I turn the car around to head to the coven manor “Who are these guys?” she asks. “This is Jonas Prince and his little brother Jordan,” “Wild, we’re sitting in the car with Royalty,” she laughs. “Do you remember spring break in Dubai?” “Will never forget that. The Alpha King knows how to party,” we both laugh. “Guys this is Violetta Wilde. We trained together,” “And hunt together,” she adds. “Nice to meet you guys,” “Likewise, the two of them say. “You don’t look like siblings. I’ve seen the other one. What’s his name?” James?” I play dumb. Jim, she laughs. “I love getting under his skin. The guy takes himself so seriously,” “He’s feral,” Jordan informs her. “Oh, that’s what that is,” she snorts. “He’s an idiot,”
“He would break you in half with just a flick of his wrist,” Jordan says with disbelief. “You come up to my hip and he is much larger “This little flea? He’d have to be very fast,” I shake my head. The King glances back at her. “She is very small,” he smiles. “No offense,” “None taken. You’re big as f***k. No offense,” she shoots back. The two of them laugh “What are you coming in for?” I ask her. “They set the meeting up with Falcon. Just here to put a face to our business calls and they’re family. What are you doing here?” “Delivery girl and I need backup from one of her coven branches in Europe. I’m getting married and some f***ks just won’t let s*** go.” Chapter 90 +5 “You know, Lycan Kitig, she ancers, “It’s distasteful to purchase a wife on this side of the world. You gotta be a real weirdo to do something that f****,” “That’s ite. A real weirdo,” the King shrugs. Violetta and I laugh. “Did you ask to pick up the package? I wonder why he sent both of us,” she says sitting back. “I didn’t. I just took the job to get me in. I was transferred over to you,” “You were sitting out there like this isn’t one of the most crime-dden cities in the world,” Jordan points out. “This is my city. If I can’t sit at a bus stop playing Sims on my phone, I wouldn’t be much of an alpha now would I?” she scoffs. The King glances over at me and smiles. “What?” I ask. “I guess if you’re going to have friends they’d be just as insane as you,” “We’re not friends,” the two of us say at the same time. “Could have fooled me,” Jordan laughs. “Then what are you?” the king instigates. Allies, we say
at the same time. “If you can’t sit and have a drink with an ally, kill them,” Violetta adds. “Before they stab you in the back,” “Don’t say that to him,” I laugh. “He’s already f***g crazy, “He’s gotta be. The only man brave enough to be tied to a feral ***h. He and Lockwood’s mate,” she squeezes my shoulder. “How is she?” “Good. I heard Tech complaining about her lack of maternal instincts with the twins, but they’re boys. So, they’ll be fine. Former Luna Lockwood was shot at during one of her galleries. They’re convinced it was Vince,” “Vince?” I laugh. “Your brother? That Vince?” “Mhm, “Dumb ***.” I scoff. “That’s what I said. Alpha Scofield called me into Nova to ask if I had anything to do with it. F**ng Eloise almost cost me those resources. You know the Triads Luna loves her and her de***ted feral b***it,” The old man would have killed you,” I say gently. “Yeah, it’s why I’m moving closer to Mr. Thorne. I f***ed up and I’ve been running his security detail,” “They tried to hurt your human? Under what premise?” “Oh, you know. He’s human,” she huffs. “I also got in a fight with him and I started f***ing around with Daniel Patterson,” “Are you out of your f***ng mind?” I glare at her through the rearview mirror. “I had to put him down, He got all possessive,” 96% Chapter 90 “Did he hurt your humm “He didn’t have enough time to, but he got very close. Mr. Thorne has been hiding in his Mom’s house since,”
She doesn’t have to tell me that any chance she had at actually being with this mortal was squashed with a st***id little mistake made on her part. Dating outside of mates sounds like the f***ng worst. I’m actually glad I’ve never had to put up with that. I just feel bad for her. She’s thirty this year and she still hasn’t found her mate. I doubt there’s a place on earth she hasn’t been to. How crazy would it be if he or she had been right under her nose after all this time? I’d be so mad at my dad for that. Tm sorry, Vy. That’s gotta be rough.” “Why don’t you just turn him?” Jordan asks. “He doesn’t know I’m a wolf, she answers honestly. “If he were in ever find out. His family would try to kill me,” “Why are you smiling?” he laughs. “Because it would mean the end of the Thorne’s Demon hunting bloodline and I kind of like them the way they are. All clueless and adorable, The King glances at me again and this time I don’t question it because if I ever did let anyone in again as a potential friend, it could have been Violetta Wilde. But after Morgan, having friends sounds like a pain in the a*** One I no longer care to deal with. The Coven mansion comes into view when we reach the end of the empty street. Jordan mumbles something about there not being any kind of traffic here. Why would there be if the things that live here top the speed of the best engines in the world? Those who ride around in cars are just the rich ***les showing off. Being immortal bloodsuckers is the biggest flex in our world. All bite and no regard to legal consequences. No king can catch one of these things and if they did, it would take a whole lot to keep it locked up. “On this side of the bridge, you never want to be caught outside at night. Always prepare for a fight and never let your guard down around the children who are out and about. Vampire kids are the f*ng w*orst kind of predators you can encounter in a dark alley. They prey on your parental instincts. It’s a hunting technique. Don’t fall victim to it,” Violetta tells them. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
The King shifts uncomfortably in his seat. There isn’t a single light outside of the massive six-floor building, but there is movement. I drive up to the huge iron gate where there’s a small welcome booth. A vampire steps out and I lift my phone with the barcode the old man sent me to press it against the glass. He scans it and motions me forward when he steps back to open the gate for me. The iron bars have the massive Cross Dynasty emblem in the center. Two lions on either side of a cross topped with a regal crown. The crest splits down the middle as the gates open inward with a loud creek. “You’d think they’d know about WD-40 after all these centuries. Violetta says sitting up to lean against the back of my seat. “I think it adds to the fear they wish to instill,” Jordan says. He’s also pressed up against the back of the King’s seat. “You tell them to keep their traps shut or do I have to Violetta taps my shoulder. “We got it,” I say and pull up to the front of the massive gothic mansion. “My castle is bigger, the King says and opens the door to step out I laugh and follow him out. The four of us gather at the bottom of the stairs that lead up to the big black double doors. There are two gargoyle statues to our sides. We wait a couple of minutes before the doors open and the little vampire princess steps out with her two mates behind her. “You should see the Vampire King’s castle, Violetta whispers. “I hate vampires,”
