Chapter 175

Chapter 0175

“You guys sure have quite the manners.” I joked.

“There is something we need to talk to you about.” Jasper looked at Emmy. She looked panicked as she

looked at him.

“Here? Now?” She whispered.

“It’s okay.” Jasper tried to consol her. She looked scared.

“What is it?” I asked, looking between the two.

“Emmy and I would like…” Jasper started.

“Here is your food. Pulled pork no bun.” She set my plate in front of me. “Ribs for the lady. Pork with bun for you sir and lastly brisket.” Ira set our food in front of us. “Do you need anything else?”

“I think we are good. Thank you!” I said to her.

Ira walked away and I picked up my fork to start eating. Neither Alec or I asked what he wanted.

Instead,

they started eating. Alec glanced at me but didn’t comment. We ate in silence. Every now and then, Emmy would lift her head up but shake it before putting it back down and taking another bite.

In reality, I found it hilarious she was struggling so bad at asking me what she wanted to. I had fini first.

Waiting patiently for everyone else to finish, I looked out the window. I watched as two black pulled out.

Nudging Alec on the leg, I got his attention. I felt him follow my gaze as we watched Darin

his gang exit the vehicles.

“Emmy, are you done eating?” I asked.

“Just about.”

“Let me rephrase that, you are done eating. We need to leave.” I said as I looked at her. Jasper looked alarm as Alec pulled out his wallet. Tossing a hundred on the table as Darin walked in. He looked around

for a second before spotting us. My back was to him but I could feel his gaze on me.

“Well, isn’t this a pleasant surprise?” His voice sent chills down my spine. My whole b*dy cringed at his

very existence.

“A surprised indeed.” Alec said as he placed his hand over my legs. “We were just leaving actually.”

“Oh darn, I should have came sooner. Ms. Kris. I heard your shop is about finished being remodeled?”

“It is. Still have a few things to do actually. I am actually very thankful it got vandalized. This remodel is

His l*p twitched in annoyance but held it still. “That’s great something good came out of something so

bad. I would still like to book something with you.”

“Unfortunately, it will still be a week or so before I start to schedule stuff. I have a backlog I need to finish

before I book anything new. I have multiple people book out before my store was destroyed that need booked first. I’m sure you can understand.”

“I see. Well, I will be waiting your call then.” Darin said.

“Yes, I believe Ira is trying to seat you. If you would excuse us, we need to head out.” I said firmly.

Darin looked back at Ira who was indeed waiting for him. “Very well. I’ll see you on saturday then. Save a

dance for me.” He said before he allowed Alec and Jasper to slide out. Ira took them to a booth on the

other side of the restaurant. We all made a quick escape but something in me told me we would run into

rogues on the way home. As soon as we were outside, I pulled Alec to the side.

“I’m afraid he will call in a rogue attack on us. Can we take an alternate route? It’s one thing with the four

of us but with Emmy…”

Alec nodded as we went back to the bikes. “Jasper, Emmy, follow us. Keep an eye out for rogues.” Alec

said as we put our helmets on. Starting our bikes, we took off. Alec turned into a random street. It would

completely take us out of our way but if it kept Emmy safe.

“What’s that?” Emmy yelled.
