Chapter Eighty-Three: A Penny On Your Head 

Avery’s POV

‘The Devil!’

I look at the caller on my phone.

It's Orion.

“Should I take it or not?”

I shake my brain to find answers, but I'm dumb as heck.

After the show Piper gave us in the cafe, I've not heard anything from Orion until now.

“Argh.”

I sigh in irritation. Can he just leave me the fuck alone?!

“What do you want now, huh?”

I groan, just staring at the phone and going to space. I bet he wants to make a plea, seeing how humbled he was in the cafe.

“Piper.”

I pick up my phone to call her, and immediately Orion’s call ends.

“Come on, pick up.”

Grunting under my breath, I try not to cry impatiently. I need her opinion on the next step or words to say.

“Oh, god.”

I cover my face in my palms, letting my mind race, knowing that Orion will call again.

My phone buzzes and I check to see a multimedia message from Orion.
