Bait Novel 95

Perry groans rolling her eyes as dramatically as she possibly can. Before I can make an even bigger fool of myself, she gets out of the tub and leaves. I don't follow, but I sit up and watch as she slips into the bedroom across.
I watch her inject the woman and then check her watch. I'm guessing she's waiting for it to take effect. The flash of her gun going off three times comes next and then she disappears. My phone vibrates in my pocket and she instructs me to jump over. I use the window I was watching her from and move through the house until I find her in the living room with something round tucked to her side. "Let's go," she says as she disables the cameras.
Neither of us says a word as she drives us to the next location. I stay in the car this time. I shut my eyes and lean back against the seat. That kiss completely calmed me. It's never easy giving in. I don't understand how it doesn't affect her the way it does me. It not only feels one-sided, but it feels like she's enjoying watching me struggle. It's the one thing that makes me hate her.
"That bad, huh?" Jordan says quietly. We both look up when we see her coming back with another round thing tucked under her arm. "Are those the heads?" "She did say don't think about it," I e out.

The trunk shuts and she gets into the driver's seat again. She removes the mask, stares straight ahead, and takes a couple of deep breaths before she flicks the sequence on the switches under the steering wheel. The car comes to life and we pull away from the curb. "I'm starving," she says and checks her watch. "That was fast," I say. She was gone less than forty-five minutes.
"That's what happens when you listen to me," she answers.
My eves stay focused on hers as what she said fully settles. Would she have really killed the first target while he was in the mid f*******g his mate? When I've fully convinced myself that she would have, I turn away. The new location is about an he away.
"Do you guys want anything?" she asks when we pull into a gas station.
This is the first time I've ever been to one and by the way he's looking around, it's the same for Jordan. He snaps a couple of pictures as he takes snacks off the shelves and stops at the soda machine.
"What's that?" he points at tit.
"A self-serve soda dispenser," Perry laughs and takes a colorful foam cup from one of the slots.
"What if I want a soda with all the flavors in it?" he asks looking it over.
"That's called a suicide and it's both the most disgusting and greatest thing you can ever drink,"
"Are you serious? I'm going to do it," he takes a cup.
"That's forty-two ounces," I inform him.
"Yeah, how great is that?" he grins.
"Ice," Perry shows him how to use the machine.
get a water bottle and walk around the store to if anything catches my attention. When we're standing to pay, a key chain catches my eye. It's a resin diamond with the Leo constellation inside of it. I pick it up and set it on the counter. Perry and Jordan argue over what flavor Lays is the best. I pay with my phone and pump gas for her. She sits in the driver's seat watching me with the straw between her lips.
"This is gross," Jordan shakes his cup and then continues to drink from it. "I never want to stop drinking this,"
My chest that she's
constricts when she laughs. She just killed two wolves. She didn't know if they were guilty of anything. They're just gone. Yet, she's sitting there laughing enjoying her drink. A part of me is enjoying the fact that she's not tucked away in her study or the dome. I like t she's smiling and joking around, but then there's the nagging part of me that believes her when she says she's not good. I've never cared to think about things like this. They've never plagued my dreams in the slightest. I've killed, but never like this. I've never had to resort to anything like this. I've always chosen my battles carefully and this fight with James has shown light on things I was sheltered from. I see where his resentment towards me stems from. I see the pieces of her that are similar to him.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

"I will," I avert her gaze.

There's a pause before she huffs and gets out of the car. "Finally,"
"You know she's doing this on purpose, right?"
I turn around to see Jordan holding his phone out. The twins are staring back at me through the screen.
"Yes,"
answer.
"Why are you letting it get to you?" Lillies asks.
"Because no matter what I do, she's not going to stay. I rather believe she's this than let her ruin everything because she's a f****g stubborn p***o,"
"On that, we can call agree," Tullie laughs.

"Is it f
"Yes,
"I want to be just like her when I grow up," Tullie sighs.
"You can't. Catching up with her trauma would take us centuries, Lillie laughs.
The three of them continue their call quietly in the back seat.
It's almost four in the morning when Perry stumbles out of the building across the street. She's holding her side, but she's still got two heads wrapped in a plastic bag with her. Her bloodied gloved hand hits the glass. I'm out of the car and at her side immediately. "You drive," she pants and pops open the trunk. "How bad is it?" I ask helping her around the car. She tosses the bags in and begins to remove her jacket.
She opens her mouth and a threatening growl comes out of her. She grips the necklace I got her as she struggles to keep her wolf at bay. I take the first aid kit and help her around to the passenger's seat. "Stop," she groans fighting the shift.
"I cleared up the blood, sir, Jordan says staring at her in horror.
"Crys," Perry cries out.
"Get in," I order him. I shut the door and go around. I flip the switches and start the car.

"Ba-" I Perry growls and then tries to catch her breath. "To the coven. Third-" She writhes in her seat. "Address at the bottom,"
"Is there any way for us to help her?" Jordan asks a little panicked.
"Don't reach for her. It bites," I warn him.
It takes her a bit to get her wolf under control. She reaches for the first aid kit as she catches her breath. She rips her top to reveal the massive wolf bite on her side.
"What happened?"
"The kid shifted when he saw me cutting the head off his father's body," she groans.
"Did you kill him?" Jordan asks.
Perry pours the bottle of alcohol over the wound and continues to clean herself up. She sits back holding the mess of gauze to her side. She's calm enough to breathe out of her nose. Jordan. I killed a seventeen-year-old boy tonight. Now shut the f**k up," she growls.
Yes,
By the time we get to the coven mansion, she's mostly healed. She jumps out as soon as we come to a stop. Violetta is sitting on the steps watching Perry change out of her bloodied shirt. I feel a sharp stab in my chest when she opens the hidden compartment to find a stack of T-shirts. She stares at them for a moment. I slam my hand on it. Her eyes snap to mine as I remove Jordan's hoodie and hand it to her.
She doesn't hesitate to take it and slip it on. Then she reaches for the heads. It's only then that Violetta Wilde stands up. Perry tosses her a head like one would do when passing a basketball and the girl smirks tucking it under her arm and reaches for a second. "was
ng to think I was going to need to look for you,"
"Eat s**it. Violetta," Perry growls only making her smile bigger. Violetta glances back at me.
"No, did your pet monster put you in a s****ty mood, Per?" she laughs tossing her head back, mocking her. "I'd get rid of it if I were you. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life-"
We all pause when Perry suddenly turns around to get in her face. Perry's eyes are white and completely focused on Violetta. The grumbling sound that comes out of her causes a cold shiver to go down my spine and I have to turn away to keep myself from laughing. "You're feral," Violetta says quietly. "Violetta," the wolf growls. "Shut. The. F***k. Up,"
"Full of surprises, Terabyte. You're using him to keep your wolf from taking over," she laughs. "All right. Go present your treasures,"
