I smirk and stick my middle finger up at him in retaliation which has him chuckling and pulling me towards him as he wraps me in his arms.
“The Director said that we needed to have witnesses or something didn’t she?” Levi asks from where he’s sat on the couch lacing up his boots.
“Yeah I think so,” Jax replies, “why?”
“Well she said herself that its dangerous for her to show us any sortof favouritism. Which makes me think that it wouldn’t be a good idea to bring outsiders in as witnesses. Especially since we aren’t entirely sure what’s going to happen with Sage’s ceremony. I assume she wants to bring in one of the other Centre groups but none of them will be children of a Centre group like Sage is. “Your dad said that you were the first child born from a Soulmate Bonded group in centuries right?” Levi asks turning to me.
“Yeah he did. He made it seem like a really big deal too and that’s why I had more gifts than regular Centre’s even at such a young age. So not only are we as a group rare because we are a Soulmate Bonded group but we are made super rare because I’m the daughter of a Soulmate Bonded group.” I finish frowning and then add, “So basically because of me we have an even larger target painted on our backs.”
“Cut that shit out. The situation is entirely out of your control and we are more than capable of dealing with any threat that comes our way, even more so once we’ve had our supernatural sides released and had some training.” Hunter says firmly.
“He’s right Sage, Little Star.” Jax adds gently.
“I know. Logically I know that but I just hate that we’re in danger.” I explain.
“We know Beautiful but we’ve got this.” Kai reassures me, kissing my temple.
“What about Erin and her team?” Hunter suddenly asks, taking us back to the previous conversation.
“They aren’t supernatural though, would they even be allowed?” Mav asks.
“No idea but it’s quite obvious that the Director wants to stay on Sage’s good side. At best because she knows who Sage’s fathers are but at worst because she wants to use her and us in some scheme she’s planning.” Jax replies.
“She does seem like the kind of woman to have schemes.” Kai grins.
“Well if we’ve already told them what’s going on and asked them to be witnesses any protests she has will be mote anyway.” I smirk.
“I love the way you think Darling.” Levi grins his eyes flashing red, “Call them now. You said you would call them when we got here anyway.”
I pull out my cell noticing that I have a lot of missed calls and messages from her and I hit the call button without reading any and wait until she picks up.
“Hey, what’s going on? What’s happening? Are you alright? Did you really turn up drenched in blood?” She asks frantically her voice raising in volume the more questions she asks.
“Whoa there Nelly.” I chuckle.
“Now is not the time for jokes Sagely-Wren!” She full names me.
Damn she must’ve been seriously worried if I’m getting the full name treatment.
“I‘m sorry Erin. I’m fine, we all are. Yes I did turn up covered in blood, who knew killing vampires is messy. I need to ask you guys a favour but we don’t have much time could you meet us at our dorm?”
“Of course we will help with whatever you need but we won’t be able to come to your dorm.” Erin starts to explain.
“Why not?”
“Well I’m assuming they put you in the east wing?”
“I have no idea.” I reply, chuckling.
“Yeah they did, why?” Hunt chimes in obviously having paid more attention than I was.
“Well the supernatural dorms are in the east wing. The human students aren’t allowed in there since they are unsupervised, so there aren’t any instructors around to make sure that someone who hasn’t quite got their supernatural side under control loses their shit and we end up with someone dead.” She explains.
“Well shit, that’s slightly worrying considering for all intents and purposes we are fucking human right now!” I reply.
“True but they don’t know that. From what I hear Levi put on quite a show outside the school when you arrived. Add to that, that you told him off and he listened! No one is going to think that you’re just human.” Erin reassures me.
“Don’t forget Beautiful we also turned up with a ton of vampires in pieces in the trunk of the SUV. I think we’re good.” He says proudly and Erin inhales sharply.
