The most recent one was from Bloom.

Bloom

Are you going to the after party?

You should go

I’m knocking on your door a few minutes before it starts

My forehead creased.

I went back to my messages. The oldest one was from Nolan.

Nolan

Hey hey hey! Be in the food court at 6 for the afterparty to celebrate Mav’s last fight for a while. Food, booze, and fun provided. Clothing optional.

Five minutes later, another message had come through.

Nolan

JK on the clothing optional. My mate’s not in a sharing mood. Pants required.

I bit back a grin.

I knew them well enough to know Oren was never in a sharing mood.The men were free with their sexuality, but they definitely didn't share.

I went back to Bloom’s text.

Me

Not sure, need to talk to Rhone abt it

Wish me luck?

Bloom

You’ve got this

I sent back afingers crossedemoji, and opened Oren’s message.

Oren

How are you doing?

My bloodlust always feels worse while watching a fight

He knew Velour had snapped my neck when he turned me. I’d mentioned it, once.

He knew the signs that I was going to devolve, too, and could've seen me from wherever he was.

If I had devolved while someone was challenging Maverick for protecting vampires, it would be very bad for all of us.

Me

I'm fine

The bloodlust sucked, but Rhone's sporting multiple bite wounds rn, so things could definitely be worse for me
