Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas) novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164 

“I have to admit that you are kinda intimidating in Lycan form, Jordan says as we wait for our smoothie order. 

“Thank you. That is always the goal. I have trouble with it because I’m adorable, but the Lycan Goddess of the moon seems to have taken a liking to me this time around,” 

“I have missed your sick jokes,” he laughs. 

The King returns with our drinks. He insisted on watching the teens make our order. I’m pretty sure he’s going to be trending on Quick Howl. #TheKingIsAFreak. Posted anonymously by yours truly. Roy and I are going to have words if he tries to filter it out. 

“I have to head back. Lillies is here,” he points out the window. “Stay out of trouble,” 

“Don’t jinx us, Lycan King,” I growl at him. He almost cracks a smile before he pulls away with two smoothies in hand. 

“I am so glad you’re here. He was driving us fucking insane,” Jordan watches him get in the G–Wagon with Lillies. She waves at us before she takes off. “Why the hell did he send for her? Lillies is the worst driver ever,” 

The sound of something breaking comes from outside. The room shifts. The morning smoothie people rush to the window phones in hand. Jordan and I look at one another and immediately get up. 

“You two were with that guy. He paid for your smoothies,” the cashier shouts. 

told you he jinxed us,” I growl and turn to the kid at the register. “Okay, Kid. That was the Lycan King and one of his many personal assistants,” 

“The Lycan King,” someone repeats. I look back to see the teenage assholes already tapping away at their phones. 

“This is actually turning out to be great for me,” I admit. “Pen and paper so I can give you the number of who’s going to pay for that. Tell him Jordan and P. Prince gave you this number,” 

“My manager is going to be pissed, man,” she rolls her eyes exasperatedly and hands me a pen from her apron and her order pad. 

“Is that smart?” Jordan asks. 

“I don’t know. It’s Roy’s problem now,” I shrug and write down his number. 

“Tell him P. Prince gave you that number. I’m not a part of this,” Jordan tells the girl. She turns bright red and laughs unable to hold his gaze. 

I slide my shades on and my hoodie as we head out. The two of us laugh when we see that the wooden fence by the entrance sign is lying in the middle of the road. Jordan holds out his smoothie for me to take. He rushes out onto the road and picks up the two logs tucking them under one arm so he can get the other pieces. 

The kids in the smoothie shop come out amazed that he picked that like it was nothing. He places the pieces on the grass so it’s not in the way of anything. 

“Sorry,” he apologizes. “My mate will pay for that. I promise,” 

I laugh as the girls all swoon over him as he jogs back over to me. I hand him his smoothie as they keep snapping pictures of 

1. us. 

“There is going to be a whole–ass misunderstanding later. I am convinced. Jonas seriously jinxed the fuck out of us,” 

“What are we doing?” he smiles waving back at his newly found fangirls.

Chapter 161 

“I need to talk to the Alpha–King so he can get me some stuff from Alpha Scofield,” 

“Why don’t you go yourself?” 

“I’m supposed to be dead,” 

“They just snapped pictures of you,” 

“I don’t look like myself, but Alpha Scofield would know it was me. I’ve worked with him before. A few times. He’s cool as hell. His daughter Temperance and I are also friends. She’s the same age as Andromeda,” 

“Again, they just snapped pictures of you,” 

“Yeah, but there’s a glare with our eyes in pictures. They need that gold lense that Dr. Salazar has,” 

“You know he’s the King’s age?” he smiles big. 

“Yeah, I figured. They seemed acquainted,” 

“Yeah, they hated each other. He’s an alpha and they competed for top of the class. He’s the other gray Lycan in Cliffside,” 

“Are there more?” 

“There are about twenty others, but not in Cliffside. I actually wanted to run something by you. My cousin is part of the armada in Bora Bora. I know you still have two openings to fill since Prince James is taking one,” 

“Do you have a resume?” 

“Yeah,” he nods taking his phone out. 

“And you trust him?” 

“I do. He was the one who helped me get the twins here when my parents found out I wasn’t rejecting them,” 

“Let me check him out and we’ll talk,” I agree. “What’s his name?” 

“Don’t laugh,” he warns me. “You’re already smiling, Perry,” 

“I am,” I laugh. “Just tell me,” 

“His name is-” he mumbles something under his breath. 

“What was that?” I laugh harder. 

“His name is Michael,” he growls. 

“You’re joking,” I stop. Blood creeps up his neck and turns his fair skin bright red. I burst into laughter holding onto his arm. 

“You can stop now,” 

“I’m. Trying,” I choke out between breaths. He shakes his head and rolls his eyes at me dramatically. 

“I know you’re my Queen and all, but fuck you, Perry,” he growls only making me laugh more. 

“Aww, man. That was great,” I try to calm myself. He grins and looks down at me as straighten myself up. 

“You’re an asshole,” 

“I’m just trying to raise your spirits, Jordan. You also have to admit that it’s funny,” I take a sip from my cup.

Chapter 164 

“How did Wonderland go?” he smirks. 

“As expected,” 

“And the blue wolfsbane?” 

“It did exactly what we predicted it would. The experiment has so far been a success. Just have to test it out in the field,” 

“It was insane for it to be tested on our Queen first,” he says quietly. 

59% 

“Darren was going to test it on Mackenzie first,” I admit. “That’s how confident he was. I was the one who told him to hold off until we were sure was starting a feral state,” 

“What if it worked on you because you were no longer feral?” 

“My brain scans still show the severe trauma from fighting off my wolf,” I reach into my pocket and pull up the downloads. “See, this is the last scan Oz took before the wedding. This is the first one she took when she saw I was healing,” I show him. “This here is the first one Ed took and this is the last one he took before he released me yesterday,” 

“The last one is completely different,” 

“If this works on James, Darren would have cracked reversing feral damage,” 

“How do you feel?” he asks completely interested. 

“Honestly, I felt like I was suffocating. I still feel the loss of my mate and my family. I still feel really bad about everything I did, but it’s not this infinite wave coming to kill me anymore,” 

He pulls me into a hug and I return it. 

“I love that for you, Perry. You look better. Way better. You even smell nice now,” he releases me. 

“I didn’t before?” 

“That little burning scent you used to have? Fuck all that. Bunny set up a humidifier for me when I went home,” 

“That hurts my feelings,” I shove him playfully. 

“You used to hurt my nose so we’re even,” he bumps me. “Where are we going?”
