Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)

Chapter 166

The laptop and all eight USB ports were delivered before dinner I have them set up in order on the King's new desk. I have to be really careful when turning this thing on because one wrong move and the old man is going to know I'm alive.

This is how the King finds me. Bond Villain-ing at his beautiful Rococo-style desk. In fact, the entire study seems to fit. The ceiling is a smooth white and black marble masterpiece. Hand-painted. I'm not sure if the black elegant pieces decorating the area around the base of the chandelier are wood carved or sculpted because whoever made them painted them black and used gold to give it a really pretty texture.

The trims and framed walls look amazing in all black. Even the empty shelves are starting to look great.

"What's this?" he asks pulling me up from his chair so he can sit. sit on his lap as he reaches for one of the USBS.

"Bomb codes," I answer truthfully. Yes, I lied to the Alpha King because so far, he hasn't given me a reason to find trustworthy. He laughs probably thinking I'm joking. "I had the Alpha King deliver them to me. Alpha Scofield had them," "Are you serious?"

"Yes," I nod. He reaches up to make me look back at him.

"Are we talking about the little detonator that set off the bombs in Redwood?" he taps my

chest.

"No. There are sixty-eight bombs. One planted in the middle of every compound Darren and I built for the old man,"

"What?"

"Darren planted these when the old man made him take the oath and started making him build shit. I designed a lot of the security systems in each one. The only problem is that they're detectable as soon as I log into this laptop. This can take out a little over half his labs," "You want to take him out," he sits back holding the USB up. "Do we know what facility the kid is in?"

"I've been thinking,"

"Fuck," he pushes me off his lap. I turn around to sit on his desk. "I hate when you say that. It's usually followed by something crazy,"

right? There are others. Gorgons, incubi, and other types of shifters. Who's to say that he's not attempting to bring back more extinct beings? What if there are more of those things down there? Can you imagine the damage they could cause if

it is," he

sighs scooting his chair closer. I lift my legs to recline them on his armrest.
