Lexine was trying her damnedest to work with Phoenix, but it was hard. The more she was around the cat-shifter, the more Lexine disliked her. On a conscious level, she knew that it was petty jealousy. On an unconscious level, she didn’t care because she should be the one in Dante’s bed every night. It wasn’t fair.

Lennox was driving while Lexine was sitting shotgun, so thankfully, she didn’t have to look at the shifter’s face. Although not seeing her didn’t help much because the cab of the truck smelled like sunshine. Sunshine and Dante.

I think I’m going to puke.

Lexine knew they weren’t having sex. One, because they never smelled like it, and two, because one of the other guys made a joke one night, and Dante had shut it down really fast. But it was almost worse that they weren’t having sex. Lexine had never seen Dante in a relationship. She knew that he had girls who he would go out with, screw, and use for feeding, but none of them had ever come around the compound, and Dante had certainly never taken any of them on a date. Yes, this thing he had with Phoenix was much, much worse.

“Lexine!”

“Huh? What?” She hadn’t even heard her brother talking to her.

“Did you hear anything I had to say? Did you even know I had a phone call?”

“No,” she admitted embarrassingly. She could feel heat filling her cheeks. So much for being on alert when she was working.

She heard Phoenix huff from the backseat. Lexine turned and shot her a dirty look.

“Dante was shot and taken to the clinic,” Phoenix informed her, annoyance or anger or both on her face.

Lexine looked at her brother to see if what she had said was true. “What?”

“It’s true, sis.”

“Oh, no. I hope he’ll be okay,” she said.

“He said to meet them there ASAP, so we will soon find out.”

“He did?” A tiny flare of hope went through Lexine.

He could have told them to keep working, yet he had asked them to meet him there.

“Yes,” Phoenix said, practically yelling. “Now, can we hurry the fuck up and get there already? If I knew where this clinic was, I would drive myself, but since I have to rely on you, I’d appreciate it if you’d stop driving like a grandma.”

Lexine gasped. Phoenix didn’t have to be such a bitch. Lexine looked over at her brother to see if he was as mad as she was, but the big dumb idiot was grinning.

“Lennox,” Lexine scolded.

“What?” He shrugged. “It’s funny.”

Lexine rolled her eyes and counted the minutes until they arrived.

As soon as her brother stopped the vehicle, Lexine flew out of the passenger seat and into the building with Phoenix right on her heels.

“Take me to Dante,” she demanded of the first person she saw.

The woman in scrubs put her hand on her hip and gave Lexine a look as Lennox joined them.

“Please,” Phoenix added.

“That wasn’t so hard now, was it?” The woman turned around and waved them back. “This way.
