Wolf Bait (Perry and Jonas)



Jonas

"Come take a look at this," I dismiss her antics.

She looks up at me with a glare. I swipe the screen on Perry's laptop and mirror it to my monitor. She glances at me and then turns her full attention

to the screen and starts to go through some of the accounts and devices her programs are being adapted into and these are older programs she created before Darren was murdered.

"What is all this?" she asks.

That is everything Perry has built that is now at our disposal," I answer.

"She created these programs?"

"And that's just the recreational use. This, I go into the largest account she has and point at the numbers. "Is the medical stuff she abandoned five years ago when she went into a coma after her mate was killed. No one has been able to pick it back up. It's t

complex. That's why Lycan Tech recruits the way they do because they're trying to find someone who can read this ***t. It's not in any language we know. It's something she built with her mate. Something only they understand,"

"Oh, my god as she likes to say, she steps back.

"I know she's a lot to handle, but it's only because she's insanely smart. If I can get to the council and marry this girl. We would never be questioned again. She can teach this s***t to the twins and you know they can run with this. I'd be able to make Lycan Tech an actual Lycan company. SI**e or Queen, she's asserted our position here and it's only the beginning

"What do we do about this?" she waves her hand over the newspaper.

"Ive been watching them," I say bringing up the videos along with the research I added. "All she was doing was solving little petty crimes and half the time it was on accident. Things she would stumble into around the areas she frequented.

"This hot dog stand is the only one in the city that has pizza pretzels. See this area where she slammed this man? That's the Lycan Tech main tower behind her. It's where Lycan Tech began. Nothing she did was illegal. I'm not going to do anything about it because there's nothing bad except the way it was all published to make her look like a ****ic,"

This alpha f***g destroyed a good person," she whispers. "And she had no one to help her cope,"

"I don't know how to undo what I did, mother. How do I make her trust me again!"

"Why is that important? She's giving you what you want,"

"This is the last thing she's ever going to do, Mom. She's helping ave our people. The least I can do is make sure she sees it's not taken for granted," "Baby" she cups my face. "I beg you. Don't fall in love with this girl. It'll destroy you when she's

gone,

“Because, Perry. You can't just leave when you want. You need someone with you at all times, Silas rips the door to my study open and shoves her inside.

"What now?" I growl.

"I just wanted to go into town and Silas yelled at me, she points him accusingly.

You were literally attacked this morning," he shouts back. She growls and crosses her arms under her breasts pushing them up higher before she falls into the seat my mother had been in

"This is f***g r**ed, she mumbles.

"I have two meetings left in g****y day. I don't have time to be chasing after your pet, my King," Silas rolls his eyes and storms

"You were gone fifteen minutes" I tell her.

"Mhm she nods without meeting my gaze,

"I have to help rearrange the stall. Your turn to watch her, my routher smacks my arm. "Be a good girl. Perry, she pats her head. I know she hates that, but she says nothing and even smiles at my mother. "Try not to get in another fight, you two,"

Perry sits there a couple of minutes after my mother leaves us.

Til just go to my room then. All I wanted was to replace my phone,” she says quietly and stands up.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Let's go get you one, Little Wolf. I was just going through everything. It's not important," I stand with her.

You don't- she closes her mouth when I look up at her. "Okay,

my

I take my wallet and my phone from the desk and lock everything else up. I even locked my study so that the files "Nate" sent over are fully downloaded. I have so many questions for her. I can't fathom the idea of dropping everything I devoted soul into like that. It would be the only thing keeping me alive.

She pulls on a little black corduroy jacket over her shirt, and as we walk outside, she slips on a pair of black heart-shaped shades. I press my lips together wondering where the f***k she even got those things from because there is no got them here. Cute is not a word worthy of her, but that's all I can think of at the moment.

way in hell she

"Is this how you like to dress?" I ask her.

Perry glances up at me from underneath her shades and I smile because her big a** eyes are really pretty. I bet she got away with whatever the f*** she wanted when her mate was around.

There was no way that kid was immune to this. I bet it was worse then too. She was probably always happy. It's kind of heartbreaking to see just how badly the thing he treasured the most has fallen.

"When I was sixteen," she says. "Oz, I mean Dr. Alvarez got these for me. Lillies gave me the shoes, she kicks her foot up to show them to me. "Cute, huh?"

“Uh, yes," I nod as we get on the lift. She grins and looks down at the lever.

"What service providers do you have here?"

"Fang Roam and Howler,"

"Lycan Tech has towers near here?"

"There's a town just over the Northern Hill. Blue Moon Pack,"

"Oh, those f***k nuts," she rolls her eyes

"What?" I laugh.

Alpha McLauren is just a tool," she shrugs. "He's just slightly better than Calvin. My ***wouldn't fit through that gap."

"What is your idea of a good alphar

Do you know Alpha Patterson in Ice Cove?"

1 do,"

"That guy knows what the f****k he's doing. Alpha Barnes in Magique City might be a huge Mafia lord but he's a good man too. That crazy chick in Lockwood City. Love her. They have huge cities under them but they keep it together. Everyone is treated fairly. Red Wood is rothing and it had been rotting long before Darren died. Long before my parents died. My mom used to say the last good Alpha we had was former Alpha Michal. When he passed and Cal's dad took over, everything went

to s**t."

"City life is very interesting," I say, "Half the things you do would make you an alpha here,"

"Because your people aren't categorized like we are. You all have titles, King, Queen, Prince, Princess, Duke, D***s, and whatever the f****k else. We're ranked by power. Yes, I do a lot of things an alpha does, but an alpha would run circles around me. Like Vince Wolfe in Magique. We have to be able to keep up with our alpha and stand in his place should we require it,"

"I didn't think we were all that different," I admit. "It always felt like you guys were a lot more bloodthirsty."

"We aren't. But, it's why we go to special schools. Why we have to study and train the way we do. The last thing a wolf wants is to be left behind for being an idiot. We're not just fulfilling our roles as people, we have to give our wolves the satisfaction they need as well. They're as sentient as we are. They have their own opinions and urges.

"Even when I try to fight hers, most of the time, I give her what she wants. Nothing else matters anymore. That's what it's like being a wolf. We're taking care of two separate souls at once,"

"Nate is an alpha?"

"If you play your cards right and you help him into the position in Red Wood. You've got yourself an alliance for life. Nate is an a***ole like most alphas. He loves money and women. He's twenty-two and unmated. The Alpha King is turning twenty-nine this year and they're buddies. That's a friendship you want, Lycan King

We stop in front of the Howler's store and I open the door for her. She grins and walks inside excitedly. Everyone stares at her as she sk***ps over to the most expensive phones in the back and starts playing with them. I stand back watching her make a decision

"My King, is there anything I can help you with?" the manager asks when she starts putting the phones next to one another to compare. "Whatever the wolf wants," I hand him my black card. "Put her on my account,"

"Yes, sir,” he bows. "I can have the parental control codes for you when we set up her phone,"

"Even if I wanted to regulate her phones, I don't think there's a system that can keep her from doing what she wants. Set it up to her liking. I need her working that thing for us. It's her weapon of preference, Elias,"

"Of course, your grace," he nods and looks back at her. She looks around to see who's going to help her.

"My lady," he calls out to her. She grins brightly for him. “My name is Elias. I'll be helping you pick out your new phone today. Do you know what you're looking for?"

"I was looking for the new H-187. The one with the expandable screen. Do you have it?"

"Those are over here, he says pointing at one of the display cases "We have to lock them down Some have been activated. They send out a powerful signal that disrupts the other devices,

"Oh," she says and pulls something out of her back pocket. "Plug this into your main Wi-Fi router. The signal comes from the main Howler's satellite for the updates. These phones aren't for civilians. They're basically handheld military computers. Howlers should have installed the blocker in their tower last month when they sold you these, I bet the Blue Moon du***es have the same problem. Help me set this up and I'll have that fixed," 53% Chapter 34
