“Ever since I cancelled my cable service, I’ve been doing marathons on Netflix,” he admitted.
Rebecca gasped, looking appalled.
“Without me?”
“Sorry, Becca, I’m all caught up now,” he said.
“Well you can join the Inner Court for Syfy Saturdays since you’re flying your geek flag,” Rebecca announced.
“I have to text Ashby, he’s going to flip.” Rebecca giggled, pulling out her phone.
“He may need the distraction,” Madison said quietly.
Rebecca became somber.
“Rhys will pull through. There is nothing Gabriel can’t do,” Ma said wisely.
“And that’s exactly what I’ll tell Ashby, too.” Rebecca’s tiny fingers flew across the phone.
Connor held up his hand and looked at his larger fingers. He always had a hell of a time texting.
Madison reached over and patted his arm.
“I love your fingers,” she said, winking.
He gave his mate a shit-eating grin and pulled her down for a kiss.
“Connor, do you have Skype set up at your house?” Rebecca asked, fingers still moving at the speed of light.
“Yeah, I had David and Daniel set me up so I could do conference calls with Sentinel.”
“Perfect.”
Connor started to get nervous.
“Becca what are you planning?” She looked up at him, grinning.
“Mu-wha-ha ha ha.”
Connor turned to Madison. “Be afraid, be very afraid,” he said.
Madison laughed and went back to reading the law books.
Connor wanted to tell her he wasn’t kidding. He contemplated picking up his mate and heading back to their house. But he knew that would only make things worse. Sighing, he stood and went back to work prepping for dinner.
“Wise decision, son,” Pa said, sipping his coffee.
Connor dialed into Skype from the computer that was connected to his over-priced television. It didn’t take long before other video connections started to pop up on screen.
Felix was snuggled with Doc on one screen. Rebecca and Aleks on another. Kate, Caleb, Bran, Gina, and Riley were from the pack house connection. Liam, Kent, Sebastian, Rian, Damian, Rex and Kaden were connected from the pride house. Finally Ashby, Nic, David, Daniel, Baptista and Roman came online from the coven.
“Okay, what are we watching?” Kate asked.
“I hear there is a super cheesy shark movie on SyFy,” Ashby said, wedged between Daniel and Nic. David sat on Daniel’s other side.
Kate, Caleb, and Bran were curled up together under a gorgeous teal quilt.
“It will have to be something on cable so we all see the same thing at the same time.” Sebastian dipped into the large bowl of popcorn he was sharing with his mates.
