Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)

+5 Chapter 118 Jonas She stretches and the dress she’s wearing rips. Her eyes go wide and she snorts ripping it clean off her body. She stops for a moment looking down at herself. Her hand gently caresses over the left side of her body where the marks had once been. She stops where I’d punch my hand through her chest and looks up at me. I hold her gaze not wanting to tempt the bond. “Here,” I hold the lab coat out for her. She buttons it up and slides up onto the counter. I lean against it next to her not wanting to touch her again. “The marks are all gone. Even the mating one,” she says quietly. “Yeah,” I push off the counter to face her. “She’s right you know. You’re not obligated to stay here, Perry. I’m-I’m not sure how I feel about you being alive at the moment, I-” I swallow back the knot in my throat. “You’re free to go. Everyone thinks you’re dead and it’ll stay that way if you want it to,” “Do you want me to go?” she asks softly. “You’ve got a second chance, Sweetheart. You’re twenty-eight years old. That’s like twelve for a Lycan. What I want shouldn’t matter to you anymore,” “You’re my mate,” she chokes out. “I know,” “Are you-” she turns away. “You’re rejecting me?” “What?” “Okay,” she slides off the counter. “Perry. I’m not-” I reach for her but she growls at me swinging her hand out. Her claws cut across my forearm. “Why would you think I’d reject you?” “Because I’m a f*u**ng loser,” she says like it’s the truest thing in the world. “I ruin everything. I ruined my mate and his family. I ruined my life. I ruin everything. Why wouldn’t you reject me?” “Don’t ever say that again,” “I’m gonna go,” she sighs. “I need to be

away from you for a while.” “I’m not rejecting you,” I panic. “I was your slave, Jonas! You marked me up and you f***ing kept me from my family. And now I’m just supposed to be your mate? You have to be f***g crazy,” she shouts. “I love you. I respect the lengths you were willing to go through for your people. But as a mate, as a friend, you’re an a****le. And I need time to get it out of my head. It didn’t matter before because I-” she pauses rubbing her forehead. “I don’t know what to do,” “I understand,” I don’t know what to do either. “You don’t have to leave. You can stay here. This is your home now. I’m sure your father has space in his villa for you. You’re still the Lycan Queen,” “You said death can break the bond,” “You’re not exactly dead,” I remind her. She looks down at her bloodied hand and the mess that was made. Tears stream down her face as she takes it all in. She looks around the room until her eyes land on me. 1/3 Chapter 118 93% “I saw them,” she says quietly, “I could hear Crystal telling me that it wasn’t my time. That I had to learn how to do shit on my own. They were so close,” she chokes out. “No matter how fast I ran I couldn’t reach them,” “F****,” is all I can say. She was so close. “Perry?” the door swings open and Jacob runs in. He stops in the doorway his eyes completely fixed on her. “Jake,” she manages to get out and he’s at her side immediately wrapping her up in his arms. “We’re going to be okay, baby,” he rocks her back and forth before he pulls back to push her hair out of her face. “You’re going to be fine. I’m right here. I’m not going anywhere,” It only serves to make her cry harder. The bond between us is itching. Like fire ants on a hot

summer day. But I can’t bring myself to get any closer. I step out of the room to find Dr. Alvarez anxiously waiting to be let in. “Is she okay?” she asks me. “No, Oz. She’s not. You should examine her,” I hold out the bloodied scalple. Her eyes turn from worried to horrified. “She tried to rip her throat out,” “Jonas,” she says taking it. “My orders?” “I don’t-” What am I supposed to say? Fix her? There’s no fixing this for either of us. “Whatever she wants. She’s still your Queen,” “Yes, sir,” she nods tucking the scalpel into her pocket. She formally bows and proceeds to go inside. “Jo?” my stomach drops down into my a***s when I see my little sister standing by the elevator that leads up to my room. Her makeup is streaked down her face and she looks the way I feel. “What’s happening? Who is that?” “Perry transitioned,” I answer. Her eyes light up and she runs to me wrapping her arms around my waist tightly. “That’s good, right? She didn’t die,” she starts to cry. “I don’t know. Things are a little complicated right now. I think we should give her some time to process her new position,” “Why would her position change? You’re still married, right?” “Yes, but the original contract had been completed and she’s a lycan now. Lycan laws apply to her. The marks are all gone. Clean slate moving forward,” “So, that’s it? You’re just going to let her go?” she demands. “If she wants to go, she can f****ing go, Annie,” I growl and move past her so I clean myself up and hopefully get some f****ng sleep. “And mom?” she asks. I pause short of pressing the button. “You just let her go,” “What did she do?” we both look back to find Perry and her sister standing behind Andromeda. “She made Jo go with her on this ***id business trip so that Eve and James could f*** one out one last time. Sofie was his daughter,” Andromeda answers. “And this idiot let her run,” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

“Perry is really good at hunting runaway *****es like that,” Mackenzie shoves her forward. “Big tension in the house of- what’s your new last name, Trash Bag?” “Prince,” Andromeda answers. “She’s Pernicious Prince now,” “Are you serious she laughs. “Big tension in the house of Prince Let us go hunt her down. You do your thing. We do ours. It’ll give us all the time to sort our heads to the new situation at hand. We Phurrys are men of our word. I volunteer to be the Chapter 118 Queen’s shade,” “Shadow and she has one. His name is Jordan,” Andromeda shakes her head. “Is that something you want to consider?” I ask Perry. “Do I still have to ask for permission?” she asks. “No, but I’d like to offer my blessing and anything you ma need on your-” “Hunting trip,” Mackenzie supplies. 93% “On your hunting trip,” “May’I come up to your floor so I can get some equipment?” “We’re not leaving right now. F*****k off. I’m tired and so is my dad. Thanks for ****ng worrying him so much. By the way,” “You literally abandoned us for five years, you ****ng a***e,” Perry “Yeah, I didn’t suicide by Lycan King scare him,” she shoots back. “I will f****ng kill you at her. and not a single person here would do jack s**t about it,” Perry flashes her canines at her. “Okay****es. Perry, get some rest. I’ll take Mack attack back with me. Goodnight. Morning whatever,”
