My magic energy levels were still rather off, and though I'd been taking my medication consistently, it would take a few weeks to stabilize my levels. It was interfering with my desire to get back to my regular male by day woman by night routine, but maybe I could find a way to have the best of both worlds depending on the situation.
"Is Dimitris still ignoring us?" I asked.
"He hasn't responded to anyone." Saint sighed. "We're so fucked."
"Fucked as in ‘he's going to fuck William senseless’ fucked, or fucked as in ‘he's going to drill us all night by running laps’ fucked?" Onyx inquired.
I rolled my eyes while Saint sighed. "See, it could be both."
"Great," I sighed. "I thought Jayce and Neo were coming?"
"They'll be around," Saint noted. "They're actually investigating something."
"Hmm?" That piqued my interest, as well as Onyx’s. "Investigating what?" I asked.
"These events always bring certain people out of the woodwork," Saint admitted. "It's good to make connections if you can. I'm sure with the sudden announcement that you're attending, many will race to get the opportunity to see you, let alone speak to you."
"Intriguing," I replied. "So I should be on guard."
"Not really," Saint admitted. "When you're with me, you'll be safe," he declared.
"I don't trust that bullshit," Onyx concluded. I snickered and had to hold back a chuckle.
"We're on the same team here."
"No hope in me," Saint huffed with a pout. I elbowed him and smiled.
"Actions speak louder than words, Holy One."
"Is that my nickname tonight?" he inquired.
"You look like a damn angel descending from heaven to fuck shit up," Onyx tossed back and I shrugged.
"He's right."
"One day I'll wear all black and you'll say I look like a sinner rising from the pits of hell."
"The female side of me would have nothing against that," I muttered. "We almost there?"
"Pulling up," Onyx announced. "Put on a show. I'll be around, but I'm leaving my mate in your hands, Saint."
"I can protect myself," I muttered, noticing the lift of his lips.
"Don't worry. I’ve got our Wilting Flower."
"Blossoming Flower," I corrected as the car came to a stop right at the red carpet. Onyx remained in the car as we awaited the official assistant for the event to come open the door for our grand reveal.
"Love you," I tossed out to Onyx.
I glanced over in time to see his eyes light up slightly as he responded, "Love you more, mate."
I made sure my bonded marks on the backs of my palms were covered with my magic and with a glance over my shoulder at Saint, we nodded and prepared to fuck shit up with our mere entrance.
Let's remind those who work in the shadows trying to defy us about the power we have.
The door opened, and the high-pitched screams made me feel like a pop star walking upon the stage. As I made my exit, the cameras shuttered and flashes went off like crazy, leaving me to fix my coat as I gave the public a wonderful smile that made the screams go up an octave.
Then they escalated even further at Saint's arrival.
