I walked out of the room, feeling satisfied that she got my message about not messing with me. I wiped my hands onto my jeans, feeling smug. "We're good," I said, going into the kitchen to see Bailey and Becca staring at Vulcan. "What is going on?" I looked at them before looking at Liam, confused.

"We are trying to figure out who this guy is," Becca said.

"He "claims" to be Vulcan," Bailey added. "I don't buy it."

"You don't buy in a lot of stuff, Becca," Liam said, eating a potato. He waved it at her. "You don't think ghosts are real when clearly Ry can talk to one."

"Are you eating a potato? Raw?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at the male that I called friend. "Why?"

"Because, I love food." He shrugged his shoulder. "And, the last time I tried to cook a potato, you yelled at me."

"You almost burnt the whole place down," I replied. I huffed and sat down only for my mate to put food in front of me. "Awww, you are so sweet," I said, pecking his lips. "And yes, that is Vulcan."

"But, where is his pig's mask?" Becca asked.

"I burnt it, duh," I replied, eating some of the food. "Your Beloved is fine," I added, catching Vulcan's worried look. "I might have punched her in the nose..."

Vulcan raised an eyebrow.

"What? She asked for it. She got into my personal space."

Cooper poked my nose as I was trying to take a bite out of my food. "I am in your personal space. What are you going to do about it." He cussed when I bit his finger and scowled. He was bleeding from the wound, and I could tell that he didn't really care. He looked at his finger before looking at me, raising an eyebrow.

"Whoops, sorry. I thought that was a carrot." I shrugged. "I guess not."

Coop huffed but didn't say a word. He smiled, and I could see the love shining in his eyes. "Hurry up and finish eating." He pecked my lips and smirked.

My eyes widened, and I couldn't help but feel a bit lust going through my body. "Fine," I grumbled. I started to eat a bit faster, ignoring the snickering from Liam and Becca. 'Where is Jonah?' I asked.

"Gigi and Rhett took him out," he said. "Tabitha turned him into a boy, and he needs clothes."

I nodded my head and yelped when Cooper picked me up, throwing me over his shoulder. I was done with my food, so I wasn't going to complain to him... yet. "Make sure to yell them to get him to bed afterwards. It's kind of late."

"We will," Becca said. "Enjoy yourself tonight. You two work so hard."

"What are you talking about?" Cooper asked. "I am the one that does all the work." He pushed my foot away from his goods before tapping my butt. "Behave or you will be punished."

I squeaked when he tapped my butt and pinched his. I spotted the King, the Prince, and Alpha Barker walking by and looking at me, confused. "Don't mind me," I said, sarcastically. "I am not enjoying this view."

"Ex-cuse me?" Cooper asked. "What did you just say."

"You heard," I replied, pinching his butt. "This isn't a good view."

"Oh, you are so going to get it," Cooper grumbled. "And you are going to enjoy it."

Cooper tossed me onto the bed and laid flat on top of me. He groaned when something crinkled underneath me, because he knew what was going to happen. "Damn it, Ry," he complained when I shoved him off of me. He scowled from his place on the floor, not bothering moving from his spot. "Why?"

"Because you were in my way," I replied. I skimmed over the letter and huffed. So much for getting down and dirty. It looked like we had to be somewhere. "Amelia Grace wants us to go over for another late night visit," I said. "She said for us to get some rest. Something about us needing it."

"Why doesn't she just want us during the day?" Coop asked with a groan. He plopped down next to me and pulled me underneath his arms.

"To keep the secrecy," I replied. I snuggled close to him, loving the warmth that surrounded me. "She wants us at two, so we will have to leave about midnight."

"Do you think it'll take us that long?"

I shrugged. "Amelia did say that I could use my powers to transport us close to there or get Tabitha to set us an hour away from her place."

"Dark witches is the reason why?"

I nodded. "They will know if we cross the line using magic. Vulcan is our best bet to get the rest of the way to her house without being seen."

Cooper sighed and kissed my forehead. "Go to sleep. I'll tell Vulcan we leave at midnight and then Tabitha to set something up."

I looked up at him. "But you will be here when I wake?"

Cooper smiled and pecked my lips. "Promise."
