Jonah POV I knew the moment she marked him , I felt it . And I also felt Kaif stir and shove forward , though not out of anger but more curiosity , and I knew she marked Kaif . The bond surged , and my mark heated on my neck , tingling , making me shiver as the bond grew stronger than ever . I had only just stepped out of the fire exit when it sounded like a bomb went off . The windows blasted , bursting and raining glass down everywhere .
The power going out caused enough chaos , but this caused a stampede in the foyer . Panicked people screaming and rushing out of the building . Some screamed about terrorists while one of my smartass employees , Ben , screamed out ” It’s aliens , ” to frighten them more . I click my tongue and shake my head .
Humans were so gullible ! Walking over to the foyer desk , I see security staff rushing everywhere . I had already mind – linked to let them know what was going on .
” Get all First Aid officers out here . They will be needed , ” I quickly add through the link . No doubt people would have been injured by the exploding glass . Sirens blared loudly outside . Even the Tornado signals were blaring in the street , not that we ever got Tornados here . Stopping next to Ben at the foyer desk , he talked to staff on the walkie – talkie . It is a waste if you ask me , with all employees being a werewolf and part of Kyan’s Pack .
Yet we had to keep up appearances so kind of necessary . ” Kyan lost the plot ? ” Ben asks . His white button – up shirt had minor tears , and blood drops from where he was sprayed with glass . Although he was already healed , he looked like a bloody mess . His sandy blonde hair stuck up in every direction .
” Nope , Marabella marked Kaif , ” I tell him . ” Kyan will have fun explaining this away , ” Ben states . Nothing that couldn’t be put down to natural disasters . I can already see earthquake headlines . ” He’ll handle it . Money talks , something he has plenty of , ” I tell him , and he nods . ” Ambulances are the way , so is an electrician .
Security is monitoring the casino . All the machines went down . And everyone else is playing medic . I sent Scott to assess the damage , ‘ ” he tells me , and I nod just as the backup generators kick in and light up the place . Now with better visuals , I see the destruction at total capacity .
Walking out the front of the casino , the street wasn’t much better . It was complete chaos . I walked back inside with a sigh , deciding authorities would take care of everything outside the casino . They were all in Kyan’s pocket anyway . Just another thing he would have to handle . ” Alpha ? ” Ben calls from the foyer desk , waving me over with his hand .
Glass crunches under my shoes as I make my way back to the white counter . He was looking at a laptop , and I walked around the counter to see what he was looking at . ” We have 908 patrons staying in the hotel tonight . What do you want me to do ? ” ” Send someone to check their rooms and make sure everyone is accounted for . Send security and medics up to each floor . All those staying issue refunds , and give vouchers for next time if they ever return.
Also , see if any available hotels off the main street have vacancies for those wanting to leave , ” I tell him . Ben nods , writing everything down on a sticky note while I turn to go check the bar area , walking away from the chaos . Despite the explosion , most of those in the bar area thought it was more reason to keep drinking . Macy was working behind the bar with Soyer . Both of them are still serving . Macy smirks as I approach .
” What’s up , boss ? ” Soyer asks as I approach . I walked around the counter to the registers , which had been opened manually since the generators wouldn’t run those . They mainly only powered the elevators , lighting , fridges , and security cameras . ” Call last round on the house , get the cashboxes to the safes and start to clean up . ” They both nod , and Macy slides a glass of whiskey across the counter , full to the brim . I raise an eyebrow at her , and she whistles , nodding toward my crotch .
I look down at the front of my pants and ” Fuck ! ” Macy laughs , serving someone before waving their money away . I scull the glass hoping it would help mute the bond , but now she pointed i tout , I was smashed with the feelings through the bond . Their arousal going to the forefront of my mind . ” Suppose I know where you are going then , ” Soyer laughs while I try to readjust myself . Why didn’t I put underwear on ! I tap the counter , and Macy laughs , sliding another glass over to me .
” You’re not heading up ? ” Soyer asks when I scull the glass before walking over and grabbing the bottle . ” No , they only just sorted things out . I will let them have a moment , ” I say , tipping the bottle to my lips ; I chug a few mouthfuls and shake my head as heat rushes through me , burning down my throat and into my stomach . ” Well , I am off to hide somewhere no patrons are , ” I chuckled , about to walk out of the small bar door when Macy rushes over to me .
She takes off her apron and tosses it at me , and I groan at the tent I fucking pitched . ” It won’t hide it , ” I tell her , tossing it back to her . ” Worth a try , ” she laughs , flicking her chocolate brown hair over her shoulder before pulling it in a bun on top of her head . I headed out to staff areas toward the security office . I instantly get laughed at by Daniel as I walk past his desk . He was head of security , an older gentleman with greying hair and a beard that went to the middle of his chest that was braided .
His eyes crinkled as he laughed and snorted at my erection . ” Fuck up , you old fossil , ” I snap at him . ” Hey , Midnight Delight is down the street . Sure , someone there will take care o f you ; don’t come in here with that . I ain’t helping ya out , ” he laughs . I growl at him . ” Marked and Mated ! Idiot , and have you seen the girls in that place , should be called Midnight Fright , not Delight , ” I tell him , with a disgusted shiver . Flopping into one of the chairs with my bottle of whiskey . Daniel shrugs .
