“Stop looking like that. I’m sure she agrees. Let’s go,” she demanded and I glanced at Laz who closed his eyes, shaking his head.
“Let’s go.” He cut his eyes at me and I arched a brow.
“Didn’t she just say Zion was moving the mattress out?”
“Yeah she did and she also said this is your fucking mess. You brought her here so let’s go.”
“Damn, Laz. I’m not sure who’s running shit. You or Jo. Maybe I need to rethink taking the position.”
He growled and I smirked. “Easy, Alpha. I don’t want your headaches and I’m not about to fight Jo to be in charge.”
“Fuck you. Let’s go.”
“You won’t fight me because you know you’d lose,” she added, lifting Kaleb into her chest and securing him into a wrapped carrier. Toyin lifted Rafe into her chest and we left the apartment, taking the elevator down two levels where we found Zion leaning against the wall with his head bowed while he pecked away at his phone.
“If you brought all of them, why the fuck am I here?” he said without looking up.
Jo moved past all of us, using the keys she’d brought from their apartment to let us in. I slapped Zion’s phone from his hand but his reflexes were quick enough for him to catch it before it crashed to the floor.
“You’re here because your alpha demanded you be here.” I smirked at Laz and Zion looked between both of us before he grinned.
You mean Jo. – Zion
Yep, she’s the one running shit. – Me
Don’t make me fuck you up in front of your kid, Xan. – Laz
He paused and added,But wait, that won’t matter because he thinks Zion is his daddy anyway. – Laz
I sneered and cut off his path but he grinned and shoved me away.
I only helped. Never stepped into your role. Chill the fuck out. – Zion
“Zion, Xander. Mattress.” Jo’s eyes bounced between the two of us before she turned back to the kitchen, opening cabinets to inspect them which was pointless because Keerah had only been here less than a week. She was just being extra as fuck to make a point of completely erasing her existence.
I followed Zion to the back and stepped into the bedroom right behind him, but he stilled and lifted his head as if scenting something. After a minute he growled and moved to the bed, leaning over and sniffing harder.
When he turned to me, his expression was hard and his eyes glowed, rimmed in red.
“What the hell is wrong with…”
Before I finished the sentence, he rushed my way, shoving me into the wall with his arm against my throat. “Where is she?”
“Who is she?” I asked, pushing him away. Laz and I were pretty equally matched but we could both easily overpower Zion.
“My mate. Where the fuck is she?”
He charged me again but Laz stepped into the room, moving between us. “What’s going on?”
“Your little brother seems to have lost his mind is what’s going on. You better get him before I beat his ass.”
“I haven’t lost my mind but he’s going to lose some teeth if he doesn’t tell me where she is?”
“Where who is?”
“Keerah…” Zion growled.
“I don’t know where she is and why do you care? She left which you already know and I’ve been a little too preoccupied with my own life to check in on hers.”
