She’s going to send the text anyway, regardless of whether the bear agrees. There is no way that she would leave people she cares about in potential danger.
Neith
Iunderstand that he’s an all-powerful spirit guide, but I wasn’t asking him if it was okay if I sent Neera and Kar a text message to let them know that they need to be on high alert, I was simply informing him what was happening.
Fortunately for me, he doesn’t seem to mind. I’m not really sure what I would have done if he had minded, because I’d still do, and that could have gotten complicated.
“That is understandable, and I appreciate your desire to protect those that you care about. It is an admirable quality,” Ezzy replies.
“Thanks. It would have been super awkward if you told me not to and I did it anyway,” I reply honestly, and the guys groan.
“Neith, you really shouldn’t talk to the spirit guides like that,” Raiden mutters quietly, a worried expression clouding his features.
I know that he’s only saying it because he cares about me and he doesn’t want them to hurt me. Not because he’s telling me what to do, which I’m not great with. I tend to do the opposite.
“Do not worry, it is actually rather refreshing the way that Neith chooses to converse with us. I know that the other spirit guides appreciate it as well. We were, after all, chosen to be Neith’s spirit guides for a reason. It wouldn’t make sense for us to get offended at the way she talks,” Ezzy reassures a worrying Raiden.
“That’s true,” I grin. “You would spend more time being frustrated or offended by what I’m saying than actually doing the spirit guiding stuff.”
“Exactly.” He replies, his eyes smiling. “Now I must go, I need to help the others.”
“Of course,” I reply, and then just like that, he’s gone.
“That is one scary motherfucker,” Ransom mutters, and the other guys all nod in agreement.
“Nah, he’s not scary, he’s just a big, cuddly teddy bear,” I grin.
“You’ve tried to pet wild bears before, haven’t you?” Coen asks with his eyebrows raised knowingly.
“I may have,” I reply. She smirks, “If not friend, why friend-shaped?”
The guys groan.
“Oh god, new fear unlocked. Neith petting something dangerous just because it’s cute and dying because of it,” River groans.
“To be fair, that is probably one of the more likely ways I’m going to go out,” I agree.
“Nene, that is so not helping,” Van sighs, although he does look slightly amused.
“Who said I was trying to help?” I retort.
My response makes them all chuckle.
“So it’s agreed? From now on, we also keep an eye on Neith around anything dangerous that she potentially may want to pet or snuggle,” River asks, looking at the guys who all nod in agreement.
I raise my eyebrow, “So I can’t pet or snuggle any of you then? Because you’re all dangerous.”
“Smart ass,” Coen grins as he pulls me into his arms. “Apart from us. We’re the exception.”
“Obviously,” Griff grins.
“Glad we cleared that up,” I smirk. “What smells so good?”
Coen kisses my neck and then stands up with me still in his arms, “That would be dinner that should be done by now.”
We all head into the kitchen to find it already dished up.
“House and Ethel are fucking awesome,” River grins as he takes his seat.
