Chapter 215

Jonas

Perry looks amazing. Oz chose a baby blue gown. Perry isn’t one to show too much skin and in this, she looks phenomenal. I doubt she’s ever wom this mich blue in her life, but it brings out the soft tan she’s been working on since turning. Her hair is the same color as snow now. Her eyes look like amethyst lanes and I can’t stop glancing at her.

A part of me thought she was going to need a moment when she saw the pictures in the box. I’d never seen pictures of her as a child. I’ve seen a couple of her and Darren but the box was filled to the brim. They’re all dated and have a little note written on the back. He loved her just as much as I know she loves him.

Her friends may have thought he was an asshole, but I see why she loved him the way she did in spite of everything they went through. Darren treated Perry the way she wanted to be treated. She wanted to be taken seriously in a world where men would have laughed at her ideals. Alpha males are like that

The fact that they grew up together probably helped keep him level–minded when she was out there nearly getting herself killed. It’s something I’m having trouble with. I rather learn to keep up with her than try to stop her. She’s never going to stop. It’s just who she is and I think he understood that.

The trust she makes me feel is liberating. I didn’t think I’d be able to after everything that happened and yet, she’s helped me see things from a different perspective. If shit happens were person that came with the level of understanding that Pernicious has, I want the picture of her in this fucking dress to be what is set as the example.

Every now and then, I look up to see her talking to random people. She’s laughing and interacting with everyone. It doesn’t look forced but for someone who is around her as much as I am can tell she’s not too happy about being surrounded by strangers.

“Okay, but don’t go too far. I want to be able to see where you are at all times,” Roy catches my attention as he fixes Hunter’s bow tie. The boy is a spitting image of the boy in the pictures with Perry.

“Yes, Poppa,” Hunter bows and runs off to catch up with Natalie

“Don’t,” he growls at me when I open my mouth to repeat what the kid called him. “I tried for Dad, but he insists on Poppa “Poppa Roy is lit,” Jordan smacks him on the back. “How is he?”
