Wolf Endangered (Willow's Forbidden Pack #2) - Avery Song Page 0,14

some sort."

Jayce groaned. "The last time we tried that, I punched the psychologist. Let's not do that again."

I decided to get things back on track because we'd spent too much unnecessary time, though that was my fault. Picking Willow up, I headed to the master bedroom before anyone could say a word.

It could have not been to Willow's usual color scheme, but the bed was similar in size and location in the room, which would give her some comfort as she recovered. After lowering her into the soft sheets, I turned to see Dimitris, who was the only brave one to try to determine if I was safe to be around.

My vision was beginning to fade now, the effects of my heightened magic twinkling away, which was a good thing because we could have a proper conversation from this point onward.

"You good?"

"I'm always good," I countered. "However, if I'm provoked, all bets are off. You know that as well as I do."

"Aurelia didn't."

"And she faced the consequences of not knowing." If he was trying to make me morally feel like I committed a crime, he’d forgotten just how dangerous I was. "She needs to look at Willow. Her energies are over the place."

Dimitris decided to drop the topic as we both made our way back to the entranceway where Onyx and Viktor were speaking to Aurelia about something while Jayce and Saint were observing. The conversation stopped at our return, but I didn't care.

"You can continue," I voiced. "Don't mind me."

See? This was why I could never be an Alpha. I just love starting shit when I'm still hyped up with dreadful, addictive power.

"Willow needs to be looked at," Dimitris dismissed my remark with the priority at hand. "I know you guys gave her a shot in the car, but her energies are off, based on Neo's assessment."

"I'll look at her," Aurelia declared, and her heels faded into the room while the rather loud slam of the door made it known she was still mad.

That left the six of us, and I decided to get myself some food. Walking over to the table, I began to nibble on some fruit while deciding what food I was going to devour next.

"I'm exhausted and we haven't done shit." Saint sighed dramatically. "And I'm damn lost."

"Lost is better than being dead," Jayce offered. "I'm hungry."

"You can all help yourselves," I voiced.

"That depends," Onyx noted. "Is Nico going to come back out?"

"Not now," I answered earnestly. "We have shit to do. Don't you agree?"

"I do, but something tells me you know something we all don't," he voiced. "Aside from the whole being the endangered Alpha Heir of the most lethal pack in generations."

"What are the chances of Roberto being dead by the strike of dawn?"

That shut everyone up as Viktor's eyes widened.

"You're not suggesting-"

"I wasn't suggesting," I corrected. "Take five minutes to read a hint of what's in that red folder and you'll have enough information to confirm the best plot our hidden enemy has was to bet on William committing suicide, killing Roberto that same night, and stealing the deal that will most likely be moved to tomorrow after the news of William's suicide is purposely splattered all over the news outlets."

Again, my comrades were speechless.

"You're being extra generous this fine morning." My wolf was extra happy after Nico's brief confrontation. Or maybe he was giddy with Willow's sexy display of defiance.

We'd never experienced that before, and if I spent time thinking about it, I'd just be distracted and horny again.

"Guess I'll eat faster."

"How much time do we have, Neo?" Dimitris demanded, and I knew his brain was already ticking - attempting to devise a plan and gather exactly what was needed to be put into place for us to be victorious.

"Hmm. It's almost three now, so two and a half hours. Three if we're lucky, but I think Mother Moon has given us enough luck with Willow's revival to spare Roberto. He's only alive for whatever purpose he still carries upon this earth."

"Jayce." Dimitris was already in Alpha mode. "Get transportation, hack the news outlets, and confirm whether William's suicide is going to be the headline for the morning."

He looked at Saint. "How fast can you secure Wall Street?"

"Say less." Saint winked, already pulling out his phone. "Your wish is my command."

Dimitris looked at me, my plate of food, and back at me. "Just eat."

"Thanks," I replied and stuffed a piece of watermelon into my mouth. I'd be useless if I didn't
