Read Online Jordan's Misunderstanding by Jana Leigh - Free Book Online Page B

They will be following you until we get back to Milliken. You do understand that since you are one of the Chosen that you belong in Colorado with the rest of the New Council. Quin and Jaden would have liked to come and talk to you but since the last attack, they are trying to figure out who and what we are up against. So they sent me and Casey since we are family.” Jordan took a deep breath, pulled her head from her mate"s shoulder, and looked at Devon. She had liked him and Casey when they met, but now they seemed like the enemy, just like the rest of her family. There were so many conflicting emotions running through her mind right now, she could not sort them out. She needed to get away, with her mates, so that she could think and talk without an audience.
    “Devon, I am sorry to say that I will respectfully decline the invitation to come to Denver. Also, if you send someone to follow me, that is your problem, but I will not accept them interfering in my life. As far as I am concerned you can keep them too, but I have the feeling that you will not listen. So, basically I am going to ignore them. My mates and I are leaving. We will contact you after we have discussed things and made a decision. I can tell you one thing though; I will not go to Colorado while the man who killed my parents is free and unpunished.” Jordan said and stood up and held out her hands to her mates.
    Jordan"s mother began weeping and she almost went to her to give her comfort. But she refused to let them suck her back in. They had betrayed her. She walked stiffly from the room, as her father demanded that she remain. She ignored him.
    Larkin. Romy, and Jordan walked out of the house and got into the car and drove off as the people she called family stood on the front porch watching her, some crying and some yelling. She refused to look at them or acknowledge them. She sat in the back of the car with Larkin at her side and Romy driving. When they finally cleared the driveway, she broke down and sobbed. Larkin pulled her into his arms and rocked her back and forth will Romy drove quickly to their penthouse.
    Their plan for the day changed. Neither of them thought the morning would go down like this. Wow, their mate was one of the Chosen. It was a matter of time before shifters found out. She would be in danger.
    Romy said quietly from the front seat. “Baby, I know that you don"t want it, but I think you need some protection. I understand why you denied it from your family, but would you please allow us to call out Prime and ask for some help? He will understand and provide us with what we need.”
    Jordan just nodded and continued to cry in Larkin"s arms.
    Romy pulled out his phone and called the familiar number. Larkin and Romy may be black panthers, but they were rich, black panthers and their Prime respected that.
    “Gorge, how are you?” Romy said into the phone quietly.
    “Good, my friend, to what do I owe this surprise phone call?” Gorge said.
    “Larkin and I met our mate. Her name is Jordan, uh, Jordan Grey.” Romy said slowly and heard the sharp intake of breath from his Prime.
    “Well, holy fuck, you mated a dog?” Gorge said slowly, as if testing the word on his tongue.
    “No, Jordan is human, she is adopted. Okay, this is a very long story so I"m going to give you the condensed version. Jordan was adopted, the Grey's found her, raised her all her life thinking she was just a human in the wolf world. Today we found out that they had lied to her, she is one of the Chosen. We need protection for her.” Romy said.
    “Once again, holy fuck. Wait, you mated to Jordan, you and Larkin?” Gorge said.
    “Yep.” Romy said and grinned when he heard his Prime clap.
    “You are part of the Council. This is what we have wanted, someone to represent the cats, in the mutt world. Jordan is part of our Pride; she is one of us now. We will protect our own; tell the dogs we got this.” Gorge said briskly and he could hear him talking to
