Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)

Chapter 14.4

Ah. Perry Phurry could never. I suddenly feel all giddy.

"What do you want, little girl?" he growls. The King looks up not liking his tone.

"Don't," I try to pull away when he lunges over the desk to take the phone. "Jonas,"

"Is that how you speak to your superiors?" the King demands as soon as he takes the phone. "Your King wouldn't deny me your head. Just ask Calvin Redwood,"

"Jonas," I rip the phone out of his hand. "That was uncalled for. We're supposed to be making friends. We promised, the Alpha King,"

"Put it on speaker, Pernicious," he growls.

"I am no longer alpha of the city, Perry. You know that," he huffs. I love the way he said my name like it's a really bad slur.

"Right, but she's your daughter and I'm not there to see her. I need to speak with you. Directly,"

"When?"

"Can we do it tomorrow at noon? You pick the place. Somewhere not too public. I'm supposed to be dead,"
