Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)

Chapter 153

Jonas

A glare flashes in my eyes from a distance. I look around trying to find where it comes from only to hear a low laugh from the thing in my neck. I spot a shadow move in the trees up ahead. I don't know why I feel relief knowing her position. I can't tell if it's because I know where she is or because she's here on Perry's orders.

The pack land's neutral grounds are beautiful. There are six buildings connected to a seventh in the center. The middle tower is where we all meet. I am in what is referred to as the Lycan House.

I can't stay here, it's just a meet-and-greet location, but it's nice. The building itself has a modern Greek build. High ceilings. and white marble columns. Lots of open space. The inside is decorated with printed pictures of old Lycan Kings and old newspaper prints. Some of this stuff is actually authentic.

"The Alpha King is approaching," Mackenzie informs me. "Six guards and his baby sister,"

"Thanks," I whisper.

"Hmm?" Silas looks up at me from a book he picked up. I shake my head and order our guards to spread out.

"Jonas," the Alpha King walks in with a little girl behind him. She's tiny and I want to say she's five or six but with wolve always hard to tell.

"Rick. What's going on?" I offer him my hand the way Perry insists. He smiles and takes it.

"No fucking clue, man," he sits down.

He looks nervous. The little girl stops in front of me and looks up. She's cute. Big blue eyes, her hair is pulled up in two pigtails, and she's wearing all kinds of pink. She steps back when I take a knee in front of her.

"Hi, I'm Jonas," I introduce myself.

"Melody," she says in the sweetest voice. "You're really big,"

"Yeah," I smile. She leans in looking at my teeth.

"So, sharp," she giggles and then turns to her brother. He holds out his hand and she jumps into his lap.

"This is my little sister. My parents are out of town,"

"Jo, where is-" speaking of sisters. Andromeda walks in with an armful of snacks and toys she probably got at the gift shop.

"I feel you, Kid. That's my sister," I say. "Andromeda, this is the Alpha King, Rodrick Savage. Rick this is my little sister, Andromeda,"

"Pleasure," the Alpha King stands with his little sister in his arms to shake Annie's hand. She looks around panicked and chooses to drop all her treasures onto Silas's lap.

King grins but returns the gesture. "Bro, your arms are jacked," "Thank you?" he says unsure. "I actually didn't write prop-nine. My brother Ace did. If
