sure some know that and will probably order
the highest item on the menu, so I have to decline your gracious offer.” London
gritted her teeth as she informed Ryder that she didn’t need his money. She
looked over at Jena hoping the bitch would take the jab she just threw back at
her. Take that , London shouted in her head.
Jena gasped as she listened to London. The
expression on her face was priceless. Zoey was snickering and Jena looked like
she was going to slash London’s tires when they left, but it was a great come
back.
“I asked you here today, so it should be up to me to
pay for your dinner.” Ryder demanded. All at the table watched as Ryder and
London bickered back and forth. She felt the tension in the room as she glanced
around the table. Some people made eye contact with her and others continued to
look away like they were not listening.
Apparently this man just didn’t get it. London knew
he was an Alpha male and all demanding but he needed to give it a freaking
break. This time she made it her mission to not give the conceited man her
surrender. Nope it is not going to happen, London thought. She gritted
her teeth then gave it to him again.
“I know you asked us, but we have the money to pay
for our own food, Mr. Malone,” London spouted off. She was gritting her teeth
as she spit out the last comment. Before London could say something else, Zoey
reached over and whispered in Ryder’s ear. “You are making it worse for her,
Ryder. Everyone knows now that money is tight for them. Don’t make it worse by
demanding to pay for their meal.” It finally hit Ryder that everyone was
staring at London. Her expression was pure anger and it was all directed at
him.
“Good God, just let him pay, we all know you can’t
afford a place like this.” Jena spit out. Before she could think about it,
London pushed her chair back and jumped across the table knocking Jena
backwards as she straddled her chest. Her hand was around her neck putting
pressure on it. London could feel people scoot their chairs back from the table
as she held Jena to the ground.
Getting close to her face, London started
whispering, but everyone in the room was a werewolf and could hear exactly what
she was saying.
“Now you really don’t know me and I sure as hell don’t
know you, but where I come from, it is not polite to talk about things you
don’t know about. What makes it worse is that you think you are trying to
impress him, but it only makes you look stupider when you open your mouth. We
all know why men want you and it’s not because of your intelligence. However,
if you so much as look in my direction again or say anything else to me, then
consider an ass-whipping coming. Do I make myself clear?”
London felt powerful ripple through her body as she
held Jena down on the ground. She could feel every one’s eyes on her back, but
she didn’t care. She felt invincible, super powerful, and stronger than she has
ever felt before and it felt natural, but how? Was she a witch or was her
adrenaline pumping so hard that she felt powerful. Her thoughts were so
scrambled she didn’t know whether to fly or run out the door and hide. The one
thing she did know for sure was that she proved a point to Jena who looked
scared to death. She always kept her control even when people pissed her off. For
some reason, she just jumped across a table and held a werewolf down to the
ground. Now that isn’t normal.
Slowly getting up and backing away from the
frightened Jena who lay on the floor staring up at her. London didn’t look at
Ryder or anyone else, when she held her head up and walked back around the
table. Now she was shocked and embarrassed at what she had just done.
As she approached her grandmother, London bent down
and whispered in her ear, “Do you want a drink from the bar?”
“No dear but you go and get yourself one. I’ll sit
right here and enjoy the rest of the show.” London thought she would be angry
