"Essentially."Saint laughed, the joyous sound having a melodic tone to it.
Is it just me, or has your magic been oozing into your voice more?
"To be fair, the happier I am, the stronger my magic is,"Saint noted."But to answer your question, yup. Don't know why, but my magic has been increasing lately, especially when I'm around Wilting Flower."
She's not even an Alpha of the pack and y'all are enjoying the benefits.
Onyx's low chuckle flooded our heads.
"Now you understand why she's such an addiction?"
"The way she handled that was something Dimitris would have done if we weren't being 'respectful' to those fuckers,"Jayce pointed out."That Victoria woman is bad news."
You know something.
I knew when Jayce hinted about something, it meant he'd done his research and had more than enough dirt to warn us about what could potentially arise.
"She's in a high position in the Coven. It's why she's cocky. The guy next to her is what I'd rank a puppy in the shadows. Since he has a solid foundation in the realms of finance, he's the backbone and normally gets her what she wants."
Except for today.
"Exactly."Jayce sounded far too amused.
"You're suggesting we're going to have to keep an eye on her?"Onyx concluded."That can be arranged."
Don't you have enough on your plate?
"I love to have a full serving of bullshit to deal with. If I don't, I'm only going to be bored, and that's just going to tire my Sugar out."
"Speaking of Wilting Flower, where is she? She should have joined the conversation by now,"Saint pointed out.
"She's in her office,"Jayce noted."That's what shows on my screen."
"She's been there for a while,"Saint acknowledged.
I'm on my way to check on her.
They weren't expressing it in their tones of voice, but I could tell they had a hint of anxiety about the idea of Willow being all alone.
"Where'd Viktor go?"Onyx inquired."He was going to remain on watch."
Roberto called for him. I approved him to check what's going on, but that was a while ago.
The elevator finally arrived, and I swiftly entered and pressed the top floor button with impatience.
"Jayce, you sure your camera is up to the current second?"Saint inquired, not hesitating to allow his worry to leak through his voice.
"It's up to date,"Jayce noted."Hold up."
"Well, that ain't a good sign,"my wolf decided to mutter. My building irritation -and hidden worry -was rising and all that did was make my wolf anxious.
Aside from our abandonment issues, the idea of someone in my pack getting hurt due to my blind-sighted negligence always tugged on a nerve that left me on a mission to ensure I didn't fuck up.
After being controlled by that fae, I was still trying to get over the hurt it caused to Willow and the pack. None of them were showing it upfront, but I knew better – I sensed their hints of insecurity.
It proved that Willow somehow managed to seep through our protective walls and create a mark on each of us. An X on the spot that was growing in value, begging for us to acknowledge just how much power she now carried without even trying.
"The surveillance is minutes off,"Jayce announced.
