The Talk
As Trisha finished her story Rachel studied her in silence. She wilted beneath her friend's sharp glare.
"You lost your job, and you didn't tell me. You took a random stranger's offer to be his wife, and you didn't tell me. You got involved with supernatural beasts, and you didn't tell me. Trisha, what am I going to do with you?"
Trisha stared at the counter. "Forgive me?"
"Does our friendship mean nothing? I could have helped you through all of this. I'm glad that things worked out, but you could have been killed several times over. And I'm having a talk with that Kanda guy right now. I can't believe you forgave him after tricking you like that."
"He never forced me to do anything I didn't want to do, he helped me."
Rachel shorted. "He didn't help you do anything. He took advantage of you."
"No, he didn't. I promise, Rachel. I wouldn't have married him in-game if that had been true."
"You told me that he basically m

Rachel had not been happy, true to Trisha's belief. She'd let her leave with Ryan but had not been happy with it.Ryan had a constant smile on his lips as they got to the studio lot."Ryan, who is this?" The man that spoke had perfectly manicured blonde hair and sparkling green eyes."This is my wife," Ryan introduced. "She'll be in your care for the remainder of the day while I'm working.""Your wife?" he asked with a puzzled frown. "Ryan, I think we need to talk."Ryan's eyes flashed with a challenge. "If you have something to say to me, you can say it in front of Trisha."The blonde dipped his head to Trisha."My name is Jace. I'm sorry if this is rude, but this I cannot allow.""There is nothing you can do about it." Ryan's smile never faltered but he put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her to him."She's my wife."Jace sighed hard. "I believe I saw a reporter giving quite a different story yesterday. This is Lo
My Pretend Marriage to the Vampire Billionaire The Press Conference
By the time Ryan was finished with his job for the day, Trisha had a new appreciation for his skills. She hadn't bothered paying attention to him before when he had just been a pretty face to her, but now she could fully take in his work."He's not bad," Lauren commented as she watched where Trisha's attention was focused. "Logan is just as skilled, he just doesn't choose to use it."This time Jace snorted. "You have too high of an opinion of that one. He's a model he hasn't even tried to do the kind of work Ryan does. Logan needs a lot of work to ever catch up to Ryan."Instead of rising to the bait, Lauren ignored him. "Logan is more skilled than you probably realize. Sure, he's handsome and photogenic, but he can act too," instead her words were directed to Trisha, completely ignoring Jace."He's not on par with Ryan," Jace sniffed.Lauren still ignored the blonde."I'm glad this day is over, but it was nice to take a break from Log

When they got back in the mansion Rachel was the first to confront them."That wasn't very smart, Trish. What were you thinking? It's hard enough for me to accept all this."Trisha kept her chin up as she talked to her friend. "I wanted to pull a snake out of hiding." She pulled out her phone and handed it over to Rachel.Rachel scanned through it and smirked. "Wait, does she think that using a blocked number is going to keep her safe?" she grabbed her own phone and taking Trisha's she retreated to the couch."Are you okay?" Logan was by Trisha's side in an instant. "I was with her, don't you think she's fine?" Lauren rolled her eyes at him.Logan ignored her. "Those vultures probably enjoyed that display. I'm sure we'll have the mansion surrounded again."Jace sighed. "Why did I have to get dragged along?""Did you want to fight your way through that wall?" Ryan asked with a smirk playing on his lips.Jace groaned. "No, but I'm not fond of being at Logan Star's residence either.""Wh

"Why do I have a feeling that you're not referring to the Council and their minions?" Jace questioned with a deep frown."Because I'm not," Lauren replied. "I'm talking about your client over there. Have you changed your mind about helping me?"Jace grunted. "I do not see how you are giving me a choice in the matter. I either help you on this suicidal mission, or I go against you and have to fight you to defend my client. I am obviously not a fighter, so the second choice does not appeal to me.""I knew you could be smart if you put your mind to it. Come on," Lauren commanded.Jace sighed once more before his head drooped. "Very well, I have no other choice. The rest of you please stay out of trouble while we are gone. This could become an even more complicated situation."Trisha however was trying to wrap her mind around the idea of living with Logan's pack. She'd gotten used to one werewolf, and one vampire, one incubus, and one felin

"What happened?" Trisha demanded as she turned away from the grisly scene and inspected the giant leopard. "Are you okay?"Nakuni finished licking his paw and set it down. "They stabbed me, but I suppose they didn't expect me to turn into this form. I'm sure they expected a helpless kitten instead."He stretched and turned back into his pocket-sized form and jumped onto Trisha's shoulder. "I'm going to stay in this form, and surprise any others that don't know what I'm capable of.""You can't discount a good surprise," Logan agreed. "Not knowing your true form could really help us.""Especially if they try to attack in the bedroom," Claw pointed out as he rubbed his cheek against Trisha's. "Will you let Rachel know that her drink is finished, but I didn't have a chance to bring it to her?"Logan picked up the cocktail. "I'll hand it to her. We're lucky it was only one." He nudged the body with his foot. "This guy doesn't look as trained as I

They were packed like sardines inside Lauren's car. Trisha was wedged in the corner with Logan on the outside and Nakuni across from her back in his human form. "How far away is this place?" she craned her neck to talk to Rachel. The other woman was glaring at her seat partner."Less than an hour, it's off in the middle of a forest. Ryan, change seats with me. You don't need to be in the middle."The vampire shook his head. "No, from here I can keep watch behind us.""Is there really a need for that?" Logan questioned with a frown. "No one knows where we're going, and it's doubtful they've even found out their companion is dead."His words were met with a shake of the head from Nakuni. "No, Ryan has a point. Just because it's doubtful doesn't mean there's a guarantee that it won't happen. I don't sense anyone right now, but it's true we could be tracked."Rachel scowled. "Fine, you can stay there then. But you better do your job."

Nakuni hopped off of Trisha's shoulder and shifted into his jaguar form as his eyes flashed. "I would back off while some of you are still alive. I won't go easy on you just because you belong to the Council."Liliana's face scrunched up in a scowl. "What?" she demanded. "Dominic, slaughter that one. Eat him for all I care.""He's a filthy shifter," Dominic grumbled as he gagged."Do it!" Liliana demanded.As Nakuni and Dominic met each other it left Rachel and Trisha with another protector gone. Rachel grabbed Trisha and attempted to shove her behind. "She's after you, get behind!""No way!" Trisha argued as she shoved back. "I'm not letting you try to sacrifice yourself for me!""Do you think I care what human gets killed?" Liliana rolled her eyes and snapped her fingers to get the other vampire's attention. "You, rip those humans apart. I'll make sure you're extra rewarded if you keep the red-head alive the longest and let me

The trip to the safe house was a blur to Trisha. Obviously it had happened, but she couldn't recall any details. They had been on the outskirts of the forest, the attack happened, they got back into the car, and now back to safety.She glanced at the door beside her. Inside Logan was resting, but she selfishly wished she was at his side."Lauren will make sure he's taken care of," Nakuni assured as he took a seat beside her. "You know that."If there were any way to save his eye, Lauren would be the one that knew how to do it, being a wolf and all. While Trisha was still a useless human. She leaned against Nakuni, and he circled an arm around her and rubbed her back in large circles."We'll figure out the pack situation. I won't leave your side.""That's a pretty selfish statement," Jace commented from the couch. He was leaning back with his leg balanced on his knee. "His greatest shot at being healed is going back to the pack. Lauren i
