Pills and potions

Shoot!

Emily's heart is beating so fast as she tries to force her brain to come up with a defense strategy. What should she say? How did the damn pill even fall off from her hands?
"Why are you in here?" Emily demands from her instead, having come up with nothing. Jessie doesn't have any right to come into her room and question her on what to do and what not to do. So she will use that one fact to her advantage.
"You are not answering me!" Jessie screeches. "You are supposed to be on medication but there is your medication lying on the floor. What's going on?"
Emily narrows her eyes at Jessie and decides to think through her next words properly before saying them out loud. Kain may be irritated by Jessie but she still lives with him and he kind of has to listen to her on some matters. Emily has to be careful. She can't ruin her plans based on a stupid blunder.
"I am talking to you, why is your medication on the toilet floor?" Jessie repeats seeing that Emily isn't responding to her.
"Nothing that concerns you and I owe you no explanation. Please, leave my room." Emily states with authority and Jessie gasps in shock.
Damn you, Jessie!
"What liberty you have! You come into my boyfriend's life and you already think you have a room? Guess what miss I-can't-remember, this is not your room."
"You are only staying here for a short while until you remember where you came from and that can only happen if you take all of your medication without spewing them on the floor! Now Pick it up! Come on!"
Jessie places one of her hands on her waist and taps her foot on the floor impatiently waiting on Emily to obey her biddings. Well, she will have to wait for that command to be executed for a very long time because Emily has no plans of listening to her.
Emily calmly washes her face and dries it with a towel before turning to look at Jessie. Without saying a word, she bends down and picks up the pill.
"Good! Now put it in your mouth!" Jessie yells, happy that Emily is listening to her. She feels powerful and smiles to herself.
Smile all you want bitch, this party is just beginning; Emily thinks in her head.
Emily turns the pill over in her hands, taking note of the dull blue color of the strange pill. She spins it with her fingers, all the while keeping her eyes on Jessie who raises her brows as she doesn't understand what Emily is doing, playing with her medication like that.
When Emily is satisfied, she takes two steps closer to the toilet seat and lets her hand hang atop it. Then she smiles a weird sort of smile that sends nightmares to people.
Like a spark hits her, Jessie understands what Emily is trying to do and screams out in frustration. "You won't dare do that!"
But she is too late. As her words leave her lips, Emily also lets the dull blue pill fall out of her hands straight into the toilet. Then she presses the flush button and watches as the pill disappears from her sight, leaving behind sparkling clear water. She taps her hands together as if dusting them from all the hard work.
"Now, can you get the hell out of my room?" Emily demands, her voice dripping with anger as she turns to Jessie.
Jessie stands shaking with anger. She clenches her fists, her ears turning red as she looks helplessly about thinking of what to do to retaliate. Coming up with nothing. "I will inform Kain about this!" She yells before strutting out the door.
Emily has been on the street longer than anyone in that house. Jessie must have taken hard drugs to think she can boss Emily around. That is an impossible fit. No one bosses Emily around. You either follow her orders or create your own space.
Taking a deep breath, Emily returns to the room and lays herself on the bed. Her injury is starting to ache slightly but she ignores it. By tomorrow, she'll be good as new, she tells herself.
Just as sleep is starting to take her deeper, her phone rings out and she jolts awake with surprise evident on her face. She didn't know her phone was recovered from the accident. Thanks to that stupid officer.
She was only going to take two hundred dollars off a rich man to allow her to get some groceries in the house but the policeman saw her in the act and started running after her. She wasn't ready to go to jail for a mere two hundred dollars theft, so she ran as fast as she could, hoping to get him off her trail. But the damned officer was persistent. She was in such a hurry to get away from him, she didn't notice the car on the road until it was too late.
In all that drama, she thought she had lost her phone, not knowing that Kain had somehow managed to keep it for her.
She searches through her cupboards and drawers and finds the phone sitting there, crying out loud for her to pick up. Emily quickly picks up the phone and answers the call.
"Hello?" She calls.
"Cam? I have been so worried. I got home and I didn't see you anywhere. Where are you?" Lisa asks through the phone.
"I am fine Lisa." Emily suddenly feels tired and wants nothing more but to fall back to sleep.
"How can you be fine? I was told you were involved in an accident. Is it true? Is it terrible?"  Emily can almost imagine her friend pacing out in their small room as she tries to get the answers to her questions.
"It's not a big deal Lisa." Emily tries to calm her down but Lisa isn't taking it.
"Where are you, Emily Louisa? And don't you dare say you are at the hospital because the nurse here has confirmed to me that you left a while ago. Where are you?"
Oh so, Lisa is in the hospital?
"I am fine, Lisa, let it go." Emily tries again. "Just go home and get some rest, we'll talk in the morning." Her head is starting to ache with all the yelling Lisa is doing on the phone and she needed to just close her eyes for a second.
"Okay, let's agree that you are fine, but I need to know where you are. Emily where are you?"
"If I tell you, you won't believe me..." Emily whispers biting her bottom lips.
"Try me..." Lisa says, holding her breath.
"I am currently at Kain house."
"The same Kain!?" Lisa squeals in excitement.
"Hmm, yup," Emily answers, a smile growing on her face.
"You little bandit! No way! You did it?! You git yourself into that house?" Lisa exclaims and Emily can already imagine the excitement on her face. "We are going to be rich!"
"Okay, slow down lover, we will be rich, okay, but right now I need to rest. My head hurts." Emily says squeezing her eyes shut as a wave of pain pricks her injury.
"You were really in an accident?"
"Yeah, I was but it's nothing serious. Just a scratch and a major headache." Emily groans.
"Ooh okay, you know what?"
"What?"
"Get some rest. I'll call you in the morning!"
"Okay, night Lisa!"
"Night, Emily!" Lisa says before the line goes dead.
Emily hugs the phone to herself and relaxes on the bed again. She needs to find some medication for her aches.
"Damn police officer!" She cusses before sleep slowly taking her away to a peaceful land.

"Alpha, do you think letting Emily and Jessie stay in the same house is a smart thing?" Peter asks Kain who is sprawled on his work chair tapping a pain on the mahogany table.
"I don't know." He breathes out.
Peter walks closer to him and holds his shoulders. "I think it's a bad idea."
"Come on Peter! Don't you think I know that?" Kain growls. "Emily is my mate whereas Jessie is just a girl I have been warming my bed with. I know the right thing to do is send her out but how do I do that? I can't just throw her out like that?"
"Why can't you?" Peters probes further.
Peter is worried for his friend and Alpha. He is in a situation that should be very easy to solve but being a playboy and womanizer for so many years makes it difficult got Kain to come up with a solution.
"She has been good to me. Jessie has been patient with me and It will be cruel for me to just throw her out. I am not a total jerk you know?" Kain defends himself.
"I am not asking you to throw her out immediately, at least make her leave your room. It will do you no good if Emily discovers Jessie in your room." Peter calmly explains to him.
Kain stays quiet thinking about what Peter has just told him. It will be a smart idea to do that. He will have to send Jessie out of his room -but nicely. He still doesn't want to hurt her feelings.
"I think, I'll do that." Kain finally says, getting up from his seat. "You should go back to the pack and see what they want. Mike has been calling non-stop."
Peter gives him a quick nod and leaves the room to go handle the situation with the pack. Being the overall Aloha in the whole of Besaadi, Kain is responsible for not just the werewolves in the city but those in the provinces and smaller towns nearby too. He had received a message from Mike, the gamma in one of the small towns and he didn't want to leave Jessie and Emily alone yet. Besides, Emily is still recuperating from her accident, he needs to stay back so he can take care of his mate. That's why he is sending Peter. Being his Beta, Peter is more than capable to handle matters on his behalf.
When Peter leaves, Kain steps out of his office and goes to his room to have a conversation with Jessie. As he passes Emily's room, his wolf purrs wanting him to go to get instead but he forces himself away. He needs to settle the problem with Jessie first before he goes to meet Emily.
He reaches his room and opens the door. He meets Jessie completely spread naked on the bed. Her legs are wide apart and her breasts are calling unto him to come to touch them.
"Hey, baby..." She calls, trying to sound seductive.
Rather than feel aroused or get a hard-on, Kain glares at her as his wolf gets furious at the sight in front of them.
