Vex sneered, ”Once again with feeling, why don’t you.”
“God that felt good,” Kenzi brushed past Lauren and stood behind her.
“Now that we got that out of the way, let me guess why you’re really here.”
“Not interested in playing twenty questions so I’ll save you trouble…it’s Tamsin, all right?” Vex flexed his jaw side to side.
“What?” Kenzi and Lauren answered in tandem.
“She misses her mom. A bit crazy and pathetic to think of you that way, but there it is.” He nodded at Kenzi.
Oh, Lauren’s mind raced. So it wasn’t Bo. She’s with Rainer, why would she want either of us back. Disillusioned once again, Lauren struggled to regain some apathy, without it she might succumb to feelings of nostalgia, waxing sentimental, or worse—self-pity. Of course Tamsin would want Kenzi back. We weren’t friends but they are. The notion that no one was looking for her, even a Mesmer with something gain, rang as clear as a church bell in the night, unequivocal in its tolling that Lauren was now, as she had always been with the Fae, on her own. She had disappeared and no one cared.
“Tamsin, huh. She sent you to find me.” Kenzi jammed her hands onto her hips, elbows wide.
”Unusual choice,” Lauren added.
“It’s complicated,” Vex continued.
“Everything about you Fae is complicated,” Kenzi huffed.
“Let me take you back.”
“Oh hell, no.” Kenzi chafed. “We’re not going anywhere with you.”
“Fine, I’ll stay.”
Kenzi shifted her weight from one boot to the other. “What about hell no is unclear to you?”
Lauren eyed the ceiling. “What’s the going price for a human doctor, Vex.“
Vex didn’t let her finish. “Stop right there. I’m not a bounty hunter, not that it’s beneath me. I’ve done worse for money. It’s not what you think, trust me,” he mumbled.
Kenzi laughed. “What was that? Speak up. So you’re doing this from the bottom of your bottomless heart?”
“Sarcasm, nice. Haven’t you met your quota for today? If you’d just give me a chance to explain…”
Kenzi dismissed him. “Yeah, right. Like there isn’t a thing you can say that doesn’t have ‘I’m a liar’ written all over it, under it, through it. I’d be able to smell the stink of your lies in the middle of a fish market.” She strode across the living room and opened the front door.

that was great but why didn’t they at least ask vex some questions if it was safe to return if bo was alive it just seemed strange.
