Our eyes darted to Aria. She was staring at her hands.
The others followed our gaze, and the girls gasped.
“I am bait, aren’t I?” Aria mumbled quietly.
“NO!” the rest of us shouted at the same time.
She flinched and looked up at us.
“You are not a bait,” I said, trying to stay calm. “But he does want you. He won’t miss an opportunity to get you.”
“If she gets hurt because of your stupid idea, I will stick my claws up your asses,” Annie threatened us.
“I believe you, Annie,” Jake said seriously.
I believed her too. I was sure she would beat the shit out of us if we hurt Aria.
“You better,” she said, glaring at Jake, Nick, and me.
“I would never put my mate in danger, Ann,” Nick said calmly.
“When are we calling him?” Jack asked.
“Tomorrow,” I said. “We need to figure out what to tell him.”
“We can do that today after practice,” Nick added.
The others just nodded, and I looked at Patricia.
“You are quiet,” I said.
She looked up at me and gave me a small smile. “Well, it’s not every day you find out you will soon get a chance for revenge.”
“Do you agree with our plan?” I asked her.
“I think it will work,” she nodded. “Victor is a smart man. But his greatest weakness is his greed. He won’t resist this opportunity. He will come.”
I smiled back at her and wanted to speak, but she raised her hand, stopping me.
“I don’t think we should call him tomorrow,” she added. “I need to call someone to come and help us. They should be here in a day or two. We can call him then.”
“Whom are you calling?” Nick asked her.
“Petra and a friend of mine from my old village,” she explained, turning to look at Nick. “He is an amazing warlock.”
“Call them immediately,” I said. “Tell them to get here as soon as possible. We will call him when they arrive.”
Patricia nodded and stood up to call her friends.
“We should continue practicing,” Mike said and stood up.
“Are you ready, Aria?” I asked my sister as I stood up to take my plate to the dishwasher.
“I need to talk to her for a second before you start,” Nick said.
I nodded. “I will be outside. Find me when you are done.”
Aria nodded and followed Nick to their bedroom.
