After the hour was up, the whole group, excluding Katie, and including Drake and Ben, we all were piled into a van and were going to see Jerecho. My anger and annoyance was still higher than normal, and I knew that it was because I didn't have Katie with me. I knew that she would be all right, but I couldn't help but feel as if her leaving was my fault.

Drake grabbed my hand and squeezed it, reassuringly. He looked at me, and I could see the pity in his eyes. He must have caught my look because he just turned his head back to the front. He kept his hand in mine, however, and if I was being honest, I kind of liked it.

"So... where is this God friend of yours located?" Ben asked.

"Happy Howie's," I replied. "He is, actually, the owner of the whole franchise."

"You're kidding," Ben said with a breathless chuckle.

I turned to look at him and scowled. "You will learn this very quickly, Benjamin, I do not kid. I do not joke around, so I would watch it if I were you." My eyes flashed, and I could tell that he was getting nervous.

"He said it like that is because we usually eat at Hungry Howie's," Drake said, squeezing my hand. "They have the best pizza for miles around."

"The Snitch's Sample was made by me," Snitch said, joining in on the conversation. "I was bored one day, so Moria had me make a new flavor." He shrugged. "It was either that or being with the customers and steal stuff while they weren't looking."

"He has done that a lot of times," I replied. "Most of the times, I have him just steal food and leave the cash stealing to me."

"Which reminds me, do you think I can have the money that you had taken from me?" Drake asked looking at me. "I found my wallet."

I pursed my lips but complied to his wishes. I reached into my pocket and gave him the amount of money that I had taken from him. "Here," I said. "That is all of what I had taken."

Drake didn't move his hand from mine. He just glanced at me, and I could tell that he wanted me to keep it. Pride shown in his eyes, and I was sure that he was just testing to see if I would keep or take the money away from him.

"Then why the fuck did you make me take it out of my pocket?" I grumbled putting the money back into my pocket, causing my mate to just look at me with a smirk on his face. I huffed and watched as we pulled into the parking lot of Happy Howie's and got out of the van.

Bernie moved to my side when we started to walk in, and I could tell that she was nervous. She had one hand holding onto her sister while the other was holding onto her mate. She looked around, and I knew that she thought that someone from her pack would be here.

I gave her a reassuring look before making it to the front desk. My whole body ease tense, and I knew that I was going to have some problems with this female before me. "Is J here today?" I asked, scowling when she looked me up and down, pursing her lips.

She looked at her nails, and I could tell that she really didn't care about her job. All she wanted was easy money, even though Jerecho made sure that everyone, even this girl, worked. "Sorry, I am not allowed to help... help." Again, she looked me up and down, and I could see the disgust in her eyes.

I growled and slammed my hands on the desk in front of me. I ignored Drake when he placed his hand on my back, not caring that he was trying to help me calm down. I wanted to punch her in the face, but I knew that Jerecho wouldn't like that, at least not in his shop. "Listen here... nymph, if you want to keep your job, then I suggest that you tell J that Sky is here. And, J does help "the help"," I spat.

The nymph's face paled. She cleared her throat and pulled out a ticket. "Back table, round booth," she mumbled. "Please..."

I glared at her but didn't say another word as I walked to the table. "He better be here," I muttered. I sat down at the table and ran a hand through my hair. I was exhausted, and it wasn't a good combination for me.

"So, what is going to happen?" Drake asked. He sat down beside me and squeezed my hand. He watched as the others sat down with both Snitch and Maddi closer to the middle.

"We will be going shortly. You might want to hold on to the table if not someone else," I replied. I stuffed the ticket in the middle of the table and waited. I hated the way that they had us traveling down to Jerecho's "lair", but I knew that it would be suspicious for a lot of kids to walk to it through the kitchen area.

"Who's that?" Ben asked when a lady came over to us. He shifted in his seat when the female looked at me and winked before spinning the ticket. "What the fuck!?" he yelled when the table started to spin. "What is happening?"

***

"Who dares enter my lair?" the booming voice of Jerecho said throughout the bottom area.

"Don"t scare the new people, Jerecho," I said, opening my eyes. I looked around and scowled when I couldn't find the God. "And, I am not in the mood, so stop your hiding, please." I huffed and moved a hand through my hair, tired and just ready to sleep for a million years.

Jerecho appeared in front of the table, causing some of the members of my group to yelp out in surprise at his sudden appearance. He smirked at me before looking at the people gathered at the table before him. His smirk turned into a frown when he didn't notice Katie with us. "Where is Thing 2?" he asked, turning his gaze onto me.

I glared at Ben, causing Jerecho to look at him. "He rejected her," I said, coldly. "That is why she isn't here."

Jerecho furrowed his brows in confusion as he glanced at me. "What..?" he turned to look at Ben, and I could tell that he had figured out that Ben was Katie's mate. "How dare you," he boomed, his anger about to get the best of him. "How dare you reject her."

"Jerecho," his Beloved said, coming over to him. She placed a hand on his shoulder, her green eyes shining bright. Anger filled them, but unlike Jerecho, she knew how to keep her head on her shoulders. "You might want to control your anger. You are scaring the ones that haven't known you the longest." She gestured to Bernie and Ari who were clutching to Thomas with a death like grip.

Jerecho calmed down a bit but not that much. He looked at Drake to see that he had placed his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him. "Are you going to reject her too?" he asked, his voice deadly calm.

Drake shook his head, and I could tell that he was nervous about speaking in front of the God. He was tense but relaxed when I took his hand and squeezed it reassuringly. He pulled his gaze from him and looked down at me, smiling gratefully.

Jerecho nodded, approvingly, before looking at Ben. He folded his arms across his chest and watched him, acting like a predator before taking down his prey. "Now, why did you reject her?" he asked, his voice deadly calm. He was trying to calm, but all of us could see the waves of anger coming off of him.

Ben shied away from him. He glanced at me but didn't try to get me to calm the God down. He cleared his throat and looked at Jerecho again. "She's a Rogue an-"

"So is your Luna," he boomed, causing Ari to whimper. "Does that mean tha-"

"Ok, i am going to stop you right there," I said, getting the angry God to turn his glare on me. I blinked and kept my eyes trained on him, knowing that at any moment, he could attack. "Go calm down. You are scaring my pack. I will not have that."

Jerecho pursed his lips and turned to look at Ben. Power filled the air, causing my powers to try and become known. "I know what you want to do," he said, his voice calm yet deadly. "But, every time you think about sex, try to have sex with someone, and or flirt with someone, you will feel the same pain that your ex-mate had felt when you had sex with someone."

"What?!" Ben asked in shock. He jumped up and stared at the God pain and fear in his eyes.. "You can't do that."

Jerecho smirked, and I could see the deadly God that I have already known make an appearance. He was deadly, and I couldn't but feel lucky that I have never had to deal with something like Ben had to face. "I all ready did."

I want to know what ya'll like about the book or don't like about the book. I know my books aren't the best ya'll will find on watt, but I do try. And, I think that that should count. I love talking to people even though I am the most socially awkward person you'll ever meet. xD

Say what you want. Just don't get mad at me if I say something sarcastic or go 'meh oh well'. Just be yourself. :3 I want to know what book you want me to update or don't want me to update. I want love from others just as much as I try to love everyone (including my books).

I think that's it.

Thanks
