“Sorry, I’m not a fashion expert,” Lily complained then turned to the alpha to see what he had to say but by the mesmerized look on his face he only had eyes and ears for Jessie. Lily called him a few times, but he kept staring at Jessie so Lily had no other option but to slap him. He growled at her threateningly.
“Oh knock it off,” she shot back at him.
“I swear when this is over woman, I am going to personally kick your ass out of my territory,” he threatened.
“You’re assuming I want to stay here… Alpha Jerk off,” she told him with an evil smile and he glared at her.
“Oh, you’re a lot cooler than I thought,” Karya cheered, giving her a high five.
“James! Get your mate away from me before I do something I may regret later,” Nick shouted and Lily hissed at him furious that he said the “M” word causing several people to turn and look at them. She started towards the alpha when someone stopped her.
“You’re going to regret that Nick, I promise you that,” She growled as James pulled her away from the smug Alpha.
“You haven’t been back ten minutes and you already have Nick pissed at you,” James stated with a small shake of the head and ran his eyes over her with a small smile.
“Keep your eyes to yourself, James,” she warned him with a punch to the shoulder but part of her couldn’t deny she enjoyed his examination. He laughed and pulled her against him and giving her a quick kiss.
“I missed you,” he told her and she narrowed her eyes at him swatting him away from her as she would an annoying fly.
“Awe now isn’t that cute, puppy love,” Karya said in an overly sweet tone then stuck a finger down her throat earning an odd look from James.
“I’m Karya, forest nymph or as I prefer dryad,” Karya said. “I come to kick ass and take some names, baby!”
“Okay,” James said slowly then looked at Lily. “What’s with the whole Rambo look,” he asked.
“Well, it’s good to be prepared. Especially when going after Xavier,” she told him.
“But do you even know how to use a gun?” he asked and Lily sighed growing irritated with him.
“Yes, Jessie showed me how,” she told him and he looked at her confused. “That’s Jessie,” she added pointing over to the human who was now talking to the stupefied Alpha.
“Wow,” James said with a dazed tone in his voice and Lily looked over her shoulder to see that he had the same stupefied expression that the alpha did.
“Eh I’m hotter and know more than she ever could,” Karya started but Lily ignored her so did James, who still kept checking out the human.
“Damn werewolves,” Lily swore rolling her eyes and walking over to Jessie ignoring the little spark of jealousy she felt. “So have you been able to get out anything out of him?” Lily asked and Jessie laughed quietly with a smug smile, but Nick gave her a warning glare, a warning like so many others she chose to ignore. “You got a little drool there Nicky,” she teased touching the edge of her mouth and he growled at her, but Kayra and Jessie were laughing which only made the alpha growl more.
“I am going to drop kick your ass out of here,” he mumbled quietly.
“Well let’s get down to business Alpha. We got a rat to catch,” Lily stated and everyone turned serious.
“Wow,” James said with a mocked dazed tone as he looked at the woman talking with the alpha.
“Damn werewolves,” he heard Lily swear with an irritated tone and tried his best not to smile as he was sure his attempt to make her feel possessive if not a little jealous appeared to work. The woman was attractive to say the least, but the fact that she looked like she could kill him three times in ten seconds was a major drawback. Besides whether Lily liked it or not, his attention belonged to her and her alone.
By the look of the alpha’s face, Nick didn’t seem to mind that the woman next to him was potentially lethal, he looked ready to lay his life down. James watched as her and the nymph walk over to the woman and the alpha and he allowed himself a victory smile. He watched them talk and noticed there was something different about Lily since her visit with the Aequivalere, and he was sure it was more than her newly acquired arsenal, but he wasn’t sure exactly what it was.
Deciding now wasn’t the time; he joined them to see Lily was pushing the alpha’s buttons. “Well let’s get down to business Alpha. We got a rat to catch,” Lily stated and Nick began to explain the plan.
“I suggest we make groups of mix supernaturals so no matter what the lycan throws at us we can counter it,” Jessie, the brunette woman explained.
“Sounds good,” Dorin agreed and Nick voiced his agreement as well. James could almost laugh as the two glared at each other obviously trying to win over the human’s attention, which appeared to be oblivious.
