Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas) novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161 

Jonas 

I let her go and take a step back. My body is responding to the sound of my mate’s submission. My ears are hot and ringing as she stares back at me. The purr has stopped but my body hasn’t gotten the memo. 

“What did he do to you?” I ask looking her over. She breathes out exasperated and rolls her eyes. 

“Are you alright?” Silas catches up and steps between us. 

“We’re fine,” Perry reassures him and smiles at him. “Dude,” 

“Perry,” he grins. “I mean, Your Majesty,” 

“Perry is fine. I still can’t believe people call me that,” she hugs him. He returns the gesture and then takes a step back politely. 

“Would you prefer Local Lunatic?” the twins rush over. again, Tulips throws an arm around her. 

ver. Lillies picks her up 

and spins her around. Once she’s on her feet 

“Tell us, Perry. How was the trip into the rabbit hole?” Tulips growls at her playfully. 

“The key to a happy life is a good tea and a touch of madness,” she quotes and the three of them laugh. “I missed you guys,” she hugs them both. “How is Jordan?” 

“He’s been kind of low, but he’s hanging in there,” Lillies shrugs. 

“He’ll be back later,” Tulips steps away from her. 

“What’s wrong?” Perry asks looking between them. 

“It’s looking like the council is siding with his parents,” Lillies clears her throat. “And the only way to reverse it is if I kill Bunny or Bunny kills me,” 

“Fuck,” she looks between them. 

“That’s it? You’re not going to bitch about it?” Silas scoffs. 

“Excuse me?” I glare at him. 

“Shit. My bad,” he covers his mouth. 

“No, this is good. We need to keep the same dynamic. It’s less plausible for others to believe I’m the Queen if we’re all hanging out,” 

“Oh, shit. What did she talk you into, man? It’s been six hours, Jo Silas growls at me. “We talked about this before you left,” 

“Is he always like that?” Perry muses. 

“Yeah, he’s dramatic as hell,” I nod. “Perry is going to play shadow so she can spy on the council,” 

“What about the task force?” he starts to shake his head glaring at her and it feels good to have someone on my side about this. 

“She’s working on it,” I wave it off. 

“James is going to help me,” she takes a step away from me when I reach for her. “If I can pin you, you let me do this,”

“No,” 

. 

“Oh, that’s why he grabbed your crazy ass carlier,” Silas snorts. “ick up girls,” 

“No, we don’t have a deal or no to- 

“No, to all of it. I’m not going to fight you and I’m not going to le that idiot out,” 

“Okay, no to the fighting and I’ll show you where I keep the gold bars.“. 

“No, Perry,” I snap.

“Who would you suggest we replace him with, then?” challenges crossing her arms under her breasts. I’ve never seen her do that. She always goes over. 

“Mackenzie,” 

“Over Roy’s dead body,” she shakes her head. 

“She’s not going to accept him,” 

“She’s not legally allowed to reject him either. You know exactly what a mate bond is,” she shrugs it off. 

“Jordan,” 

“Jordan is the team leader already. The twins don’t have the training required to pull this off. Nor do they have the stomach to be able to handle what we’re going to do,” 

“You’re not letting him out, Perry. I’m not letting that fucking asshole anywhere near you,” I try to stay calm. 

“We have time to change our minds,” she smiles. Her eyes snap to the open road. “Someone’s coming,” 

I take a look to see Rick’s trucks headed this way and when I turn my attention back to her, she’s gone. 

“What the fuck?” Silas and the twins look around. Not even her scent lingers. 

Choosing to ask about that later, I give my attention to the Alpha King as he gets out of the back seat and holds the door open. Melody and my sister both slide out after him. Guards from the two other trucks with them start bringing shopping bags out. 

“Why are you guys all standing around?” Andromeda asks. 

“Yeah, why?” Melody asks placing her little hands on her hips. Rick rolls his eyes. 

“Where’s your new shadow?” he asks coming over to us. I look around to find Perry sitting on the top pillars of the newly built main house. I point up at her. 

“She’s not the meet–and–greet type,” I say. 

“Is she from your mom’s pack?” 

“No, she’s from Cliffside. Kind of a hermit, but one of our best shadow operatives,” 

His eyes stay on her a little too long for my liking. He waves his hand and someone brings him a laptop carrier. 

“We have to talk,” 

I look up at her. She gives me a single nod. An ear–piercing whistle comes out of her and the twins walk away in different directions. Silas takes a deep breath and motions us to go inside. Andromeda and Melody go inside giggling. Rick snaps his

fingers and his guards take their things inside. 

-Do you remember when you called me spoiled?– I ask her. 

-I still firmly believe that.- she says and I can actually tell she’s smirking.

I roll my eyes and follow after the others. I lead them into my new study. Some things are still wrapped in plastic. Silas pulls. the protective plastic off the sofas and clears the coffee table for us. I help him and I see the disapproval in the Alpha King’s eyes, but he says nothing. 

“Is it important?” I ask. 

“A very large portion of blue monkshood has gone missing,” he says and places the laptop in front of me. 

There plain as day is fucking Perry making a deal with some rogue asshole. Well, it’s just the back of her head. I lean in as if to try and take a better look. 

“What am I looking at?” 

“Surveillance footage. That’s Perry. See the date?” he asks annoyed. “Where is she?” 

-I’m not letting up on the James thing, Jonas. You know I’m right- she says in my head and the rage it sparks is exactly what she intended. 

“What the fuck do you mean where is she? You know where she is,” I growl. 

That’s it, Lycan King. Bite his fucking head off. Just don’t let it all out. You still have to deal with me.- bitch. There’s the little terrorist I fell for. 

“Look, I don’t care what you did to make this happen. A deal with the devil. Necromancy. Fucking her corpse under the moonlight. Perry is an asset of the Alpha King’s realm and we’re going to need her for what comes next, Jonas,”
