CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN
“Roll down a window.” I kick the zombie as he lunges at me again. “Stop it, asshole.”
“They are open.” Jai grins back at me.
“No, they aren’t!” I growl. “Why did I have to sit in the back with this stinky magic bastard?”
“You lost wolf-vampire-witch.” Jai shrugs.
“You know, you were a lot less annoying when you were an angry, psycho human,” I mutter.
He lets out a full belly laugh that makes me smile. “Yes, but then I couldn’t have saved Vale’s ass tonight.”
“I didn’t need saving,” Vale mutters as he drives.
“You definitely did,” Jai and I say at the same time.
“I had it under control. I was leading it where I wanted it,” Vale grumbles.
“You were running away like a damsel in distress.” I kick his seat, and he throws me a glare in the rearview mirror before he very purposely rolls up every window back here.
“Asshole.” I push the zombie off me again as it falls, struggling to get to me. “Stop trying to eat me. Jesus, at least buy me dinner first.”
That makes them both laugh, and I can’t help but smile. We did it. We just need to convince the hunters now and send them on a wild goose chase, then Quinn and her pack will be safe. Maybe we shouldn’t feel so good about lying to our own people, but knowing we are doing the right thing for the right cause is also making us giddy.
“Is that what it takes to fuck you?” Jai jokes. “Guess Quinn had no chance. She tends to eat her meat raw.”
Rolling my eyes, I look away.
“Oh, come on, it’s not like we’re hooking up with Quinn,” Vale scoffs, and Jai goes suspiciously quiet. We both glance at him as we linger at a red light, the zombie groaning away. “Right?”
“Well, we might have kissed,” Jai admits.
My mouth drops open. “How? Like, how? She was keeping you prisoner.”
He shrugs. “Maybe I like chains.”
“That was another joke. This is freaking me out,” I mutter.
“You kissed Quinn.” Vale blinks.
“Yes, then she kissed me, so I guess we kissed twice,” Jai says and then looks between us. “Oh, come on, don’t give me that look. I might have been an asshole, but I wasn’t blind. You both wanted to fuck her too.”
Vale and I blurt out our protests, and he laughs.
“Such liars. I saw the way you looked at her. She looked at you too. Don’t be angry just because I kissed her and you didn’t.”
“I didn’t know it was an option,” I admit. “We’re enemies.”
“Not anymore,” Jai offers helpfully.
“Shut up,” Vale mutters, his hands tightening on the wheel. “She’s still a wolf?—”
“A very hot one,” Jai interjects.
The zombie growls as if in agreement, and none of us can deny that.
“You’re both just jealous,” Jai says as Vale guns it.
