“Holy fuck,” a woman beside me says. “That’s Garrett Landon shitting himself in public.”

Her friend laughs. “Serves him right. He’s an asshole.”

“He’s definitely having asshole problems right now,” the other woman says as they both laugh.

My work here is done.

Once Garrett is safely in his car—poor seats—and Ben and Nial have made themselves scarce, I continue my walk, excited to tell Eli what I did.

I burst through the door, finding my love lying on the floor with kittens using him as a jungle gym, our sweet Mina basking in the sun as she keeps a watchful eye on her babies.

He turns to me and smiles. “Hey.”

“I just made Garrett shit himself in public.”

He looks confused as he chuckles. “What?”

I hurry over and plop down beside him, cuddling Napoleon against my cheek. “Garrett confronted me and I used a trick Yves told me about. I just focused on him losing control of his bodily functions, and it fucking worked. He shit himself, peed, and vomited. All of it, right on Main.”

“Whoa.” Eli laughs. “That must have been a sight.”

“It was amazing. All I could think about was all the times he humiliated me in front of people. I finally got him back for that.”

Eli sits up, rubbing my arm. “I can’t imagine how good that felt.”

“Incredible. I feel like I could fly right now.”

Eli tilts his head. “You can’t? No bat shifting?”

I laugh. “No. Sadly, we don’t become bats. We can jump from very high heights without damage though.”

“So we’re more like cats then?”

Leaning in, I nuzzle my nose to his cheek. “Yes, I suppose that’s true. We can scale buildings easily, and of course, move so quickly we aren’t even detected.”

“That’s pretty badass.”

“It is.” Taking his hand in mine, I brush it across my lips. “As you know, Garrett is going to try to kill me.”

He frowns, nodding.

“He won’t be successful, of course, but he poses a risk to the safety of others.”

“Yeah. What are you gonna do?”

“Bump up the time frame to the next ball. Invite a lot more people from New Onyx. Yves and his group are going to help me get rid of any evidence.”

“What can I do to help?”

“Do you want to be involved, Eli? There is a risk.”

He shrugs. “I’m your ride-or-die, Michel. Whatever we do, we do together. Plus, if you think I’m gonna sit out the epic demise of the biggest bully of all, you’re definitely wrong.”

Smiling, I tackle him to the floor and steal a long, delicious kiss, basking in the warm sweetness of his mouth. “Fuck, I love you so much. I couldn’t love any other man more.”

“Good, because then I’d have to get all murdery and take him out.”

“Mmm, I think I like this murdery side of you.”
