Chapter 0070
(Several hours earlier)
(Joey POV)
I had managed to prevent Sheila from sitting next to James on the airplane, but I was not sure how I was going to prevent her from wrecking the overall trip… and our long–term plans.
We had already been on the plane for four hours, and I had yet to come up with a single idea to get rid of
her.
Thankfully, the Moon Goddess must have been on our side.
Frustrated and bored, I pulled out my phone, turned on the plane’s wi–fi, and discovered several text messages from my mate.
Jessica:
“Where are you going?”
Jessica:.
“Joey, answer me. It is important. Where are you going?”
Jessica:
“Joey, please for the love of the Goddess, answer me.”
Jessica:
“JOEY!”
Me:
“Babe, so sorry. I had my phone in airplane mode. I forgot the plane had wi–fi. What is up? Is everything okay?”
“No, it is not okay! Have you seriously forgotten about Sheila? And Lily? And our plans?”
“Where are you going?”
Jessica:
Jessica:
Me:
“Hawaii. You know that.”
Jessica:
“No, I mean do you have a direct flight or a stopover?”
Me:
“A direct flight…”
Jessica:
“To where?”
Me:
“Hawaii.”
Jessica:
[angry emoji] “Where in Hawall?”
Me:
“I dunno. One of the islands.”
Jessica:
“Answer my d&&n question or I swear to the Goddess you will not get laid again for a year.
“Kansas City, Kansas,” he responds sarcastically,
I choose to ignore the sarcasm. “I am sorry to ask, Sir. I know that we are on our way to Hawaii, but my mate is a bit of a paranold one. She wants to know which island we are going to.”
He rolls his eyes. “What kind of security guard does not bother to figure out where he is going before he
gets on a plane?”
“To be fair, Sir, we only had twenty minutes to get ready for this trip, and you were the one who made all of the arrangements. If you wanted your security forces to be prepared, you should have given us a little more time and a little more information.”
James glares at me. For a moment, I worry that my disrespect is about to cause me to be suspended from my job or banished from the pack. Thankfully, after groaning, he answers me. “Honolulu.”
“Thank you, Sir.”
Me: “Okay, Baby. I found out. We are going to Honolulu.”
Jessica:
“Nowhere else?”
Me: “James just told me. We are going to Honolulu.”
Jessica:
“Please confirm with him that your hotel is in Honolulu.”
Me: “He said we are going to Honolulu.”
Jessica:
[angry emojil
SERIOUSLY? Is the sex with Jessica good enough to let her bully me like this?
Yeah. Yeah, it is. Crap.
I lean over and tap James gently on the shoulder again.
