House Of Legions (The Angel Descendants book 1)
Chapter 50 (Clare)
Alonso’s eyes staggered in their direction, “What’s Vincent doing here, I wasn’t aware that we were meeting with the Nefilim?” Nathan’s eyes widened, his back straightened up, clearly upset, “Watch yourself, Alonso, he’s my friend, I requested his presence, if you don’t like it, I suggest you leave.”

Vincent settled himself back into the chair, and carelessly started to play drumming beats with the pads of his fingers on the armrest of the sofa, “I don’t care for childishness, call me what you will, it is I who shall outlive you after all.”

Nathan ignored his question, “Clare’s approaching the Orderian tomorrow, I’m sure you aware of the news circling.”
