Alexis' POV
When I tell you that the look on Jack's face was priceless, I mean it, if I had a camera I would've taken a picture so that I would never forget the cute blush that crept over his face. I watched as he tried, and failed, to fight his blush knowing that I wasn't bluffing. If I had wanted to fuck him right now, he would be on his knees begging for me, and he knew it, but he wasn't the focus of my attention anymore; I had gotten what I wanted from him, but I still had questions for Jake.
"Love, if I may ask you, what's your favorite food? I know you drink way too much soda, but for some reason that I have yet to understand, instead of damaging you, it heals you."
"I'd have to say guacamole, I like Chimichangas a lot too, but I've always had a soft spot for guac."
"If I made it so that there were ingredients for guac grown at my place, would you be willing to come to visit me next week?"
When I tell you that there were no words to describe the look of disbelief and joy on this man's face, I mean it, his jaw dropped and he looked like I had just offered him the world itself. He shook his head in a 'snap out of it' sort of fashion and nodded his head with excitement, only to do something that I would've never expected. Not in a million realities would I have expected him to do this. He sat up, drooped his head into the crook of our neck, and sniffed as if I smelled like vanilla and cherry, like a Lucifer's Cola on steroids; His eyes when he looked back up at me were a piercing gold color, and in the softest voice you could ever imagine, he rocked my world in one sentence.
Jake's POV
So, I'm going to be honest, here, I was in a trance and wasn't even that aware of what I was doing, hence why I'm not too worried about saying this; After her scent caught me, I felt like I was going to burst and so, to make her understand what effect she had on me I might have, sort of, maybe, kind of whimpered in her ear.
"Alpha Alex, your luna is waiting for you tonight, please don't disappoint~," I whimpered in a hushed tone so as to not attract unwanted attention but in a high enough pitch for her to know that she made me desperate for her. Jack on the other hand knew that I was in a bit of a trance, and before Alex could do anything, he snapped twice to break it and snap me back to reality.
"Jakey, you're cute, but unless you want to be 'claimed' with a crowd watching, I'd suggest you don't tease her. Alexis is at the door, and Alex doesn't want you to be scared when she claims you, do you, Alex?"
"No, thank you, Jack. That actually helped a lot more than I thought it would, you've gotta show me that trick sometime."
"Oh, it's not hard, so long as he can hear or see you, it's easy to break trances on him. It's a lot like hypnosis, but when we're fused hypnosis doesn't affect us due to my aura, of sorts. It's a lot like a spell shield from League Of Legends, only instead of blocking spells, it wards against them so the only influence on Jake's actions is me. Which to an outsider's perspective would sound toxic, but as you have seen, it's more of a protective measure that we set up within the first couple weeks after we met."
"Makes sense to me, you've gotta show me some of these tricks though, it would help out with keeping Alexis in check when I'm working at the very least."
"Maybe when we come to visit, but not until then, I don't want to distract from our plans for tonight. Take it one day at a time, ya know?"
As Jack finished, Gloria brought our food and drink refills to our table, and the plates of Chimis were double-sized.
"We gave y'all a double serving, it's on the house today, seeing as y'all seem to have something big going on. Thought I'd make your meal a bit nicer while I was at it," She said before leaving to go serve other customers, and as she left Jack and Alex locked eyes. There was something fishy going on that they weren't telling me, but based on the look Jack gave me, I didn't need to know. So, we left it at that and enjoyed our meal, me more or less just listening while Jack and Alex talked about stuff that was kind of boring, but that's not something I would say out loud.
"Hey love, you seem quiet, something on your mind?"
"No, not really, just listening to you guys talk. I don't really have much to say, so I'm kinda just listening while I eat."
"That doesn't sound like you, what's going on in that pretty little head of yours?"
"Why won't you guys tell me about the waitress? There's something that you guys caught onto, but clearly, I missed it," I asked, and Jack sighed as he knew my curiosity was one of my fatal flaws, I was always curious about shit I shouldn't be.
"We'll talk about it when we leave, but not until then, it's for your own safety, love."
