Strings of Fate

211- Building and bonding

Everyone frantically looks around the room until we realise that Harry isn’t here. We’re all sharing near identical looks of alarm except for Alpha Kohen and Marie but I assume that’s because they don’t know Harry well enough to understand why we are all so concerned.

“Cam… do you know something that you want to mention?” I ask suspiciously. She shrugs.

“I mean, it’s no big deal. I just thought that I would test a new drink on him. One that is designed to have more of a kick when used on Incubi. I haven’t tried it until now because getting him drunk in a public place honestly sounds like a punishable offence. I didn’t think it would be a problem here…” She trails off, clearly double thinking her decision.

“RYANN!!! I MISSED YOU, COME HERE.” He moves way faster than someone as clearly inebriated as he is should be able to, and throws himself at me, nearly knocking me over with his taller frame. He crushes me to his chest, half suffocating me in a hug.
