‘I can,’ I answered, relieved that it was going to plan so far.

‘Can you still hear the earrings?’

‘Yes, we can’ Tenoch answered for me.

‘Tenoch?’ Evie asked with some shock in her voice.

‘Yes, Evie’ Tenoch answered, and I could tell he was trying to sound seductive. I rolled my eyes at my wolf and hoped that would be the worst of it.

‘So the binding spell worked how Zi thought it would,’ Evie mused.

‘Yes, it did. Hi Cory! Hi Tenoch!’ Tozi came into the conversation.

“Rum and coke, please,” Evie asked the bartender. At least I figured that’s who she was talking to.

‘Is that you, Tozi?’ Tenoch practically purred the words.

‘In the back of my human’s head, as always,’ she answered brightly.

“On the house,” a voice said a few moments later.

“Thank you!” Evie said in a cheery voice.

‘Goddess, it’s a sausage fest in here. There’s like three other girls in here,’ Evie said.

‘You should not have gone in there alone. We need to go inside,’ Tenoch growled in response.

‘Chill. She’s fine. We’re right here to protect her’ I warned him, unable to say much more.

‘I’ll be fine, Tenoch. I’m a werewolf. They’re humans. I haven’t smelled anything else here,’ Evie tried to placate my wolf.

That’s right. I’ve got her back, Tozi added proudly.

Tenoch grumbled something incoherent but quieted down while Evie giggled and Tozi purred. The purr had Tenoch’s tail wagging and sending a shudder through my body.

We sat in silence while Tozi and Tenoch talked a little. I guess being in the back of our heads all the time without being able to communicate unless we let them take over made them a little chatty. I was only thankful they appeared to be talking about random things rather than anything embarrassing. About twenty minutes later, I heard Tozi stop in the middle of her sentence.

“Greeneyes16?” A male’s voice came through.

“Alipedgin8653?”

“The one and only, beautiful. Your username checks out. Your eyes are fucking gorgeous. As is the rest of you,” he said.

‘Too bad the same can’t be said about you,’ Tozi huffed, mollifying the rage I felt building in Tenoch.

“Yours means nothing,” Evie said in return, making the man laugh.

“No. It doesn’t. A username says a lot about a person and that defeats the point of anonymity.”

"All mine says is that I’ve got green eyes,” Evie answered.

“And that you were sixteen at the time you created your username, which makes you wicked smart. It tells me you’re a romantic because you’ve kept it this long.”

“And it can mislead you. I was not sixteen when I made the username, it was my age when I graduated from high school. I don’t keep it out of some sort of nostalgia, I keep it because it carries my mark. It’s my livelihood,” Evie countered.

“And the green eyes?” he asked.

“I was seventeen. You try to come up with something better at that age,” she answered, and Tozi snickered.
