Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)

Chapter 95

Jonas

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.
