She grinned right at him. “Hmm, why did he actually send someone to San Diego?” she asked as she got her phone out, and handed it over to him. She might need one of their numbers after what she’d seen in Monterey. So, she didn’t argue about it.
“No, Jared wouldn’t go,” Andy stated, though it did look as though he was amused by her attitude himself.
“Wise of him,” she nodded. “Tell him I appreciate that, I do like my own company.”
She moved her eyes back to Chester. “Your boy is good-looking, he must take after his mother.”
Chester rolled his eyes at her, “Yeah, got those girly eyelashes.” Chester murmured un-phased by her.
She turned her eyes on Andy to look and see if he did, and he actually batted them at her. They were quite long. “All the girls love them.” He smiled, and she could see why. Not only were they long, but they had steel grey eyes with a few bright green flecks behind them, and they were lit up with amusement right now, pretty eyes, she thought to herself. He was the Gamma and likely those very eyes helped him to charm she-wolves into doing what it was that he wanted them too.
“Jealous of them.” She nodded.
“Wynta, why are there no numbers on this phone bar your landlord and two of your team members?” Chester interrupted them.
“Because that is all I need.” She answered him simply.
“How is that possible?”
“Hmm, one my landlord for fixing things, obviously, and two, Tallah because she’s the head of the team and Howie because he’s in charge when Tallah isn’t here. I also call one of them if I’m not coming into the office,” she answered him simply.
Chester frowned at her and shook his head before turning back to her phone. It wasn’t locked. There was nothing on there to be used against her. Her life was very simple: eat, work, sleep, read an online book or watch a short of some online drama. He would, if he chose to go through it, find three reading apps and two short reels apps, and a few games to while away her time. There was no social media of any kind on there, she didn’t need that.
“So how was your trip to the beach?” Andy asked her to bring her attention back to him.
“Good, for the most part, wine, coffee, and I enjoyed the view from my hotel room on Saturday night.” Though that last part wasn’t the truth, they didn’t need to know that.
“Where’d you stay?” he asked right back.
She smiled at him, “Trying to clarify where I was, I see. Monterey Plaza and Spa. Right on the water.” She told him, she rarely went to the same place twice, and she knew she wouldn’t be going back there again, not after seeing the heir to her old Pack. Nope, she would find somewhere else to get away from Mating Balls and full moons.
Though she knew the coast was the best place, most wolfen packs were in the forests or mountains, so taking a break in a cabin in the woods or on a lake was, in her mind, a higher risk of being seen or scented by wolves. Not many actually had packs right on the ocean or in cities, so they were the safest places to be, especially on full moon days because pack. members were all inside their packs praying to scent out their Mates. Unlike her, who was actively avoiding that.
She watched his eyes narrow on her and knew he’d picked something up, though he likely didn’t know what it was, no one knew her past. She didn’t talk about it, though he’d likely picked up that moment of thought about not wanting to come across Nolan. It evoked a slight annoyed worry from her.
She took her phone back from Chester when he handed it back to her, and she scrolled through the contact list and frowned. It wasn’t just Edward and his unit he’d put in there, but Jared and his unit, “Emerson?” she inquired, just to make sure she wasn’t wrong.
“Beneath Andy,” Chester stated.
Her eyes moved right towards him and a smirk played at her lips instantly. “Really!!”
“Don’t.” Chester muttered and stood up.
“Too late, the image is there, those poor girls all standing in line trying to crawl into your son’s bed. Don’t stand a chance if Emerson is always under Andy,” She stated to Chester, but looked to Andy himself now.
She saw Andy stare at her with a slight frown on his face, and it took him a moment before he came to the realization of what she was implying, “Let it go son, she’s trying to tick you off.”
“I am not, you stated Emerson was under Andy I just figured, well…” she shrugged with a smirk.
“Hmm, his ass is tight as fuck.” Andy winked at her. “But Jared’s ooh, you just want to bite that thing.” And he even let out a little growl, as his own father cracked him one and shoved him out of her office.
“Goddess, you’re as bad as she is,” Chester muttered.
Wynta heard Andy laugh as they walked away, and she chuckled herself. It seems the Gamma had a good sense of humor, hadn’t taken any offense just played along; to what appeared to be Chesters’s annoyance.
