My Not Yet Mate

Chapter 25

Chapter 25: The Queens Vs. The Villain

Sasha

She and Kalani had been following to for hours. They had practiced being invisible for weeks prior to this meeting to avoid detection. They had gotten so good at it that even their mates had stopped being able to detect them. Jo started to sink lower and the sisters followed suit. Jo landed, seamlessly shifting back. Kalani made it look easy and Sasha knew so did she, but even after a few years, she was still a fraction of a second slower. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Jo went up the stairs to ring the doorbell. After months of searching, they thought they had possibly finally narrowed down the witches that could be the one spelling Lily. This one they were here to see was at the top of the list. He had given Melissa the creeps to the point she had asked for jo to go check him out. He opened the door and smiled at her. His smile was genuine enough, but something about him irked Sasha’s soul. She glared at him as he beckoned Jo in.

“So. Guriel, I hate to barge in like this, unannounced, but it has come to our attention that you have been making many trips to the Lotus Clan. I would like to know why?” lo said, as she entered,

“My mate is there. Not that it’s any of your business, but I have every right to be there.”

“That was too fast of an answer. Ask him who she is, Sasha ordered through their link.

“I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but everything that involves that clan is my business. What’s her name?

Sasha had to stifle a laugh. In true jo–like fashion, she had made it clear that she was in control. Goddess, she had always loved this woman. They all watched him think for a second which was too long to be the truth.

“Laurie.

Jo rolled her eyes behind his back as she followed him into the kitchen.

“Do you take milk and sugar in your tea, Beta JoAnn” he asked, running his eyes down her body.

Sasha grinned when she could just imagine how hard Jo was trying not to gag at his words. She exposed her mark to him.

“Your flirting does not amuse me, Guriel. I’m mated, something I hear you have not had the blessing to be.”

His jaw clenched, before he returned to grinning. He made her a mug of tea and set it in front of her. She started to lift it towards her mouth and Sasha leaned forward, snilling.

“Don’t drin

“Don’t drink that, Jo. It has Dragon’s Bane in it.‘

She paused with the mug at her lips, before placing it back on the table untouched. Sasha breathed a sigh of relief.

‘There’s a vampire down here in the dungeon.”

‘Are you sure?”

“Yes, he has blood in his cell.‘

“Are you alone in the house?” Jo asked.

“Of course. Would you like to check?”

Again, he answered too fast. The little lying asshole.

“No, I believe you.”

Jo stopped talking to study him. ‘Girls, he smells like Lily. It’s very faint, but I can smell it. Do you smell it, too, Sasha?”

‘Yep. This is the fucker we’ve been looking for.

“May I ask the real reason you have come back, Beta JoAnn?”

‘A job. Tell him we’re looking for a group of witches for a special job, Sasha ordered.

“I came to offer you a job.”

“A job?” he repeated doubtfully.

“What job?”

“I don’t care. Make one up. Make it good.‘

“As I’m sure y

you are well aware, that the king’s mate, Lilianna, is the daughter of King Luis of the Lotus Clan.”

Sasha watched him closely. She saw the way his eyes flicked towards the mug and the knife in front of him. She positioned herself in front Jo.

“I was unaware. How lucky he is to have found his mate.”

“Oh, look at you. You hit a nerve, Jo.‘

Isla laughed through their link as lo responded. “Well, the king is looking for witches for an assignment. If you are interested, come to the castle. You will receive all of the details then.”

To stood up and Sasha began to back up to her.

“Lani, let’s go.”

“I’m already outside.”

“Wait, you didn’t drink your tea.”

“This fucker is really trying to kill me, jo mused silently.

sasha put her hands on Jo’s back. ‘I got you. Drink it.”

“Oh, how rude of me,” she said sarcastically.

She swallowed it down as Sasha neutralized the Dragon’s Bane. They leisurely strolled out of the kitchen, taking their time purposely to let him know that fo was not scared of him. They got outside and Sasha nodded to Galina who was already ready to go. They all took to the skies and were headed back to the Dragão Clan Halfway there, Sasha and Kalani let their bodies reappear. Sasha groaned.

“I hate that. It takes so much energy.”

“Same, but it’s Lily, Aja.”

k I did it?‘

“I know. Why do you think I did it?”

They landed and Aiden, Ethan, and Gregory all ran over to them. Sasha climbed up Aiden’s body and he held her tightly.

“I’m tired. I had to keep lo from dying. Take me to bed, My King. You two can fill them in.”

Aiden carried her up to their room, but before he could place her on the bed, she shook her head. He raised an eyebrow at her and she pointed towards their fireplace where another egg lay surrounded by their fires. He pressed a kiss to her nose as he took over.

“Are you gonna think I’m the big bad dragon again and think I want a hard–boiled egg?” he teased.

She rolled her eyes and smiled, “Only if you give me reason to. Besides, I’m a lot scarier now. Rawr.”

He placed her in the fire and leaned against the fireplace as she wrapped herself around the egg. He watched her stroke their egg as s him up on what had happened. She looked up at him and smiled. “Now, we know who the witch is and who the vampire is. We’re so much closer to
