Pestilence (Eli):
When?
I rub my feet together under the covers. That’s a good question. I’ve only actually been on a date with Nico and Luke.
Me:
Date?
Pestilence (Eli):
You want me to take you out, kitten?
Or do you want a specific date and time?
Me:
Go out
Pestilence (Eli):
Wednesday?
Me:
Yes
My insides burst with butterflies. It’s weird how something as simple as a date makes me feel closer to the guys. Before I set the phone down, it buzzes in my hand.
Pestilence (Eli):
You’re enough, kitten
When I glance up at him, he types more. I almost feel bad because I’m with all of them, but I expect them only to be with me. I have all of him, but he has to share me. Is it fair? Probably not, but they claimed me first.
Pestilence (Eli):
Strategically it made sense
We could get information that won’t be available to us otherwise
I could protect you
My heart softens.
Me:
The cost was too high
Pestilence (Eli):
I know
