“I’m happy I could provide that for you.” The sarcasm in my voice was clear but everyone just laughed.
“We defiantly need to get together more.” Jace finished his drink and started looking around for a waitress.
“Kristen wants to do that Halloween shit every year.” Alec finished his drink too. “Come on, Jace. Let’s get another round.”
Alec and Jace got up and headed to the bar. “What’s on the agenda now?” Lars shifted now the girls were coming to sit down.
Scooting my chair, Penny climbed on my lap. “Emily thinks she twisted her ankle.”
“Really?” Lars shifted so he could see her ankle.
“I’m really not made to wear heels. Don’t worry, it will be healed soon enough.” She waved off Lars’s concern and took a drink from his glass.
“You should have seen her. She was doing moved that would make everyone blush.” Ice laughed.
“It’s nice to let loose. This club is amazing! How come we’ve never visited?” Emily looked at Lars.
“Someone’s in trouble!” Kathryn giggled. Aston shook his head but looked at Lars. It was filled with amusement and apologise.
“That’s because car rides makes you sick so we didn’t come up.” Lars nicely reminded her.
“That’s right. Car rides are really a bitch but after being here, we are defiantly going to come back more.”
“Here we go.” Jace said as he sat down the drinks. After, he picked Echo up and sat down before placing her on his lap. Ice got up and let Alec sit down but she didn’t sit down on his lap. Instead, she stood between his legs and took his drink.
“Is the bar staying up with the business?” Ice asked Jace and Alec.
“They are doing okay. You don’t need to work tonight.” Alec grumbled.
“Is it really work when you are having fun?” Ice looked back at him and challenged. Alec raised an eyebrow at her and took his drink back.
“Yes.”
“You guys are really the perfect couple. I wondered who would be able to keep up with Ice’s personality.” Jace laughed at their exchange.
“Really? He calls you Ice?” Alec looked slightly hurt.
The table busted up laughing and I couldn’t help but to join in. “You don’t let him call you Ice?” Echo asked.
“Don’t worry, Alec. None of us girls can call her Ice either.” Kathryn leaned forward and tried to help Alec but it didn’t help. Everyone else had tears in their eyes from laughing and Alec just shook his head.
“I didn’t grow up with them!” Ice said in defense. She turned to face him and pulled his head down to hers. She whispered something in his ear that I don’t think I wanted to know what she said.
In the end, he rolled his eyes but picked her up and forced her to sit down on his lap. “I got some beers for the table!” Carson’s voice interrupted, bring the attention Alec. However, I watched him visually relax from it. I had to hide my laugher. Draping my arm over Penny, I leaned forward and took a beer.
“Where have you been?” Aston asked.
I knew why he was asking. With Sherry’s background compared to hers, she might have the same difficulties. “Sort of. I’d give him some time off and let them work through their stuff. Have her slowly come familiar with how you run things.” Penny answered before I could.
“If you don’t mind, I might call you later on if we need to.” Emily looked hopeful at Penny.
“Of course! Anything you need, just let me know.” Penny held out her hand to Emily. After a quick squeeze, they let go.
“Let’s get back out there, ladies! The night is still young for all this talk!”
As the women slipped off into the dance floor, we kept talking. “Does she have any idea of who she is?” Jace asked.
“None. She does have a little accent though.” Lars shook his head. “She doesn’t even have a memory until she was in the cage. They had to given her something to erase it all.” Lars finished off his beer.
“I was asking around and there aren’t that many ranking females that have been missing. However, the crime rate over seas is very high. Too bad we couldn’t ask Joe if he was in the business of smuggling women.”
“I doubt it.” I said but paused. “I don’t know. When we had that meeting, he was about respect. It is disrespectful to steal someone’s ranking daughter. He even offered Penny a soft hotel room to deliver in if she willingly gave up her blood. If there was a way around violence, he did it. Still, if they owed him money, he might have taken them as payment.”
“Now, you are assuming he was aware of what Vin was doing from the beginning. If we make that assumption, we have to think whoever took over for Joe will pick it back up.” Lars continued.
“Naw, I don’t buy it. I would put money on it that he wasn’t aware until he came over.” Alec seemed positive.
“Then why did he come over?” Jace asked, pointedly.
