Callum
What are you doing about the demon?
Me
Maybe if you weren't known for meddling, I would've told you already
Callum
My meddling got Liv back together with her soulmate
Me
One right doesn't fix a wrong
Callum
I gave you plenty of time
I'll figure out your plan, too
I sent him an eye-rolling emoji.
"Callum's warning you not to leave my side again, right?"Darius asked.
"He's actually threatening to figure out my plan and meddle again if he doesn't approve of it."
"There's a plan now?" Dare checked, glancing over me. I lifted an eyebrow at him. "Right. Of course there's a plan now. What is it?"
"You'll find out pretty soon."
"I really fucking hope it involves food."
"It doesn't. I think you'll like it more, though."
"More than food? Not likely."
Shadows gathered in the kitchen, and Rae appeared in the center of them.
Darius blinked. "I stand corrected."
Rae straight-up ignored him, striding over and setting a small bundle of shiny, black clothes beside me on the counter. "Mia and Charity would like their help to be considered part of an alliance."
"We've been allied with the demons since I made that bargain with Grayson," I pointed out.
"We've had your backs repeatedly with the Cabinet even when your people are full of shit," Darius added.
The fact that he was aware of it said just how often it happened, because Dare had been checked out from the Cabinet since before the first meeting took place.
Rae shot us a deadpanned look. "I brought the message because they promised me free food. I'm not a fucking politician." She lifted herself smoothly up onto the countertop, across thekitchen from us. There was a solid six feet between us, but I could still feel Dare's magic warming up.
Whether or not he was doing it on purpose, I didn't know. I doubted it, though. He rarely did.
"What kind of food are you getting? We can share," Dare said.
"I don't share." Rae's response was immediate.
"Sharing is caring."
