** Luke''s POV **


    I walk with Axel to the dining hall in hopes we can find some food there. It''s past lunchtime but we might get lucky. Otherwise, we will have to go to a supermarket. The Hallways are quiet, most students now in ss. I hesitate as I pass my sister''s ss, should I let her know I am back? If I do I''ll not only disturb her ss but she will tell Mum and then my parents will be demanding to see us. I think Josie would benefit from a day at home with all of us before wee back to reality. We will soon be so busy that we will barely have time for each other and we really deserve some time as apletely bonded group. Something we haven''t been able to have until now.


    I suspect we will have to meet with the elders soon to discuss what we know about Cornelius and his ns in the human realm. They will probably want to know how we n to fix this mess and right now we don''t have a n. Just two hours ago we were stuck in the human realm trying to keep ourselves safe, we haven''t had a chance to n anything.


    Damn it," Axel groans and subtly adjusts himself in his pants.


    "This connection is great but it''s not always convenient is it?" I chuckle as desire and need pulse through the connection. Axe grunts in agreement and we both stop to build up our shields the way Mason had taught us because thest thing we need is to identally unload in our pants in reaction to Josie''s orgasm. Not that that has ever actually happened yet but it''s been close and rather not risk that kind of embarrassment.


    As 1


    we near the dining hall, the scent of food has my hopes building. I''d rather not have to go to the supermarket yet. I just want to be at home, not interacting with people. We find the dining room empty of not only people but of food too.


    "Looks like we are taking a shopping trip," I sigh.


    Great, did you bring money? Because I didn''


    "Shit, no," I curse.


    "So now what? If we go back there without cheese she is not going to be happy and I hate seeing her unhappy," Axel says.


    "How do you feel about a little theft?" I grin.


    "What kind of theft are we talking about here?" he frowns but a small smirk ys on his lips.


    "The kind where I port us into the academy kitchen and we raid the fridge," "I''m in, and technically it''s not theft anyway. The food is for us, plus we haven''t been here for weeks so they definitely owe us some," heughs.


    "You''re forgetting that our newest bond member is probably the one responsible for punishing us if we get caught anyway," I shrug before grabbing Axel''s arm and porting us into the kitchen.


    "What the hell!" a female curses from behind us when materialise in the kitchen. I spin around, ready to make an excuse when my eyesnd on Molly.


    "What are you doing here?" I demand.


    "I could ask you the same thing," she scowls, crossing her arms over her chest.


    "We have permission to be here," Axe says.


    "Who by?" she cocks a brow.


    "None of your business,"I snap, "you should leave,


    "I was just about to, I got what I came for anyway," she shrugs and ports out.

    "That was wierd, right?" I ask, scanning the room for any evidence of what she had been up to. Everything looks neat, there''s no evidence she was even here and she hadn''t been carrying anything so why was she here?


    "Yeah, maybe she just came for a snack," Axel frownIS.


    We gather some supplies, making sure we have a good amount of cheese for our little cheese monster and enough food to make us all some sandwiches before we port directly back to our apartment.


    "Mission sessful,” I announce as we deposit our goodies in the kitchen.


    Josie rushes out of the bedroom, wearing nothing but Mason''s T-shirt and she looks breathtaking. The smile on her face is contagious and my heart swells to see her so happy and rxed for the first time in weeks.


    "Did you get cheese?" she asks hopefully.


    "Of course, do you think we would return without it?" Axelughs.


    "I''d have ported to the human realm and raided a cheese factory if needed," I smile.


    Josie gives me and Axel a brief kiss before making a beeline for the block of cheese. She opens it and cuts a chunk off, popping it into her mouth with a moan as she cuts another piece.
