Chapter 41

"Let's get going." Darian muttered for the umpteenth time, taking the package from Jaxon as they walked back to the car. "I'm driving." He stated simply, there was no dispute about that, he just wanted to inform them.

“Jaxon and I will take the backseat then.” Leon spoke up without hesitation, already moving.

Darian’s glare cut him off. “What?”

Jaxon swallowed nervously, knowing that he had to cut off their escalating argument or they would never leave. Also he was terrified of being in the back seat all alone with Leon, at least Darian could be trusted to keep his hands to himself.

“I want to ride shotgun.” He was quick to say.

Darian smugly opened the passenger side door so that Jaxon could go in, going around to get in the driver’s seat.

Leon glanced at them both, a faint smile on his face as he slipped into the back seat.
