Max flops down in the seat next to me, the seat Zack just vacated, as the other two Alphas are fighting at the other end of the plane. Cyra is pretending that she doesn’t notice it, but I saw her irritation when they started.

Since she’s not saying anything and they’re not doing too much damage to each other, or the plane, this is probably the best way for them to stop being so tense the whole time. And maybe it builds something between them. I don’t know. Maybe they can become at least somewhat friendly towards each other after beating the shit out of the other?

“I’m thinking, you’ve got painkillers and bandages with you, and probably better skills than most nurses?” Max sounds like he’s tired, but when I glance his way, he seems more amused by the situation and I get lost in his deep brown eyes for a moment. Fuck. I can ignore him when he’s further away, but this close... it’s much harder.

“You too?” I don’t really think I need to answer him, not after how Zack has been acting these last couple of hours.

He shakes his head. “Liam usually doesn’t get into fights. He just... gets in other trouble. But this is totally within the realm of possibility of him getting in trouble around someone who seems to prefer ‘talking’ with his fists. As long as they stay in their human forms and don’t do too much damage, they should be fine, I think.”

“Yeah. They seem fine.” I nod. I pull the tablet a little higher onto my lap, since my slacks are starting to... lack space, so to say, from having Max this close. “Zack knows that if he breaks anything, he’s gotta pay for the repairs himself. Even if it’s only indirectly his fault.”

Then I drop my voice, glancing at Cyra before my eyes end back on Max. “What happened at the house? She seemed... angrier than before, when you got to the airport.”

She’s obviously snapped out of whatever shock she’d been in and turned full fury on us instead. This is definitely more like the girl we met at the cafe, not the husk she was when the ‘news’ of our sneaking off from the party broke and she got the call from her parents.

“She... It took a little convincing to get her to let me into her apartment and... more convincing to get her to pack her bags.” Something dark passes over his face. “I basically reinforced all her arguments as to why she doesn’t want to be part of shifter society, why she doesn’t want Alphas around. I was an asshole to her. But it got her here safely, so the end result was worth it.” Though his voice sounds pained.

Zack, or even I, can easily act like everything Cyra hates about Alphas, but this guy? Max? He almost looks too kind to know how to act like an ‘Alphahole’, an Alpha asshole.

“I don’t think you believe that.” I slowly shake my head.
