Murphy's Law was torture.

Siren resisted fidgeting in her seat but couldn't help but comb her fingers through her now flawless hair. She was a bounty huntress in a tavern full of members from the Wolf Pack. She might as well have had a sign above her head screaming "Kill me now!"

Jude drank from his mug of ale and Siren flinched every time he did. Not only did it remind her of her drunk father, but she didn't want Jude putting his guard down and babbling about their identities. Judging by his size and his suspected drinking tendencies, a mug of ale wouldn't affect him in the slightest. Still, she couldn't help but feel uneasy. Maybe it's because he picked the worst possible tavern. She'd been privy to parts of Jude's past, especially of his time with the Wolf Pack and now the thieves guild didn't seem so bad - he didn't seem so bad. It was hard to shake off years of bounty hunting mentality, though.

An arm came around her shoulders and she leaned into him, sighing, with a soft smile playing on her lips. She had to play it just right. Everything had to be laced with newly wed honey. Oh, Jude... she thought sarcastically.

"You are actually really good at acting aren't you Layla?... Hope this contact of yours shows up... The sooner we do this the better."

Despite Siren's seemingly irresistible urge to roll her eyes, she didn't. "If he doesn't show up, you can weep over it all by yourself," Siren said a little too cheerfully, whispering a soft kiss on Jude's cheek.

She didn't know why she was with this guy and why she was trying to clear Keito of his bounty. It was out of character and Siren didn't like thinking about it. I'm turning into a giggly idiot. It just seemed reasonable at the time in the forest, when Jude had lifted Siren from the ground and threatened to destroy her. Looking at him now in all his scarred glory, Siren had to admit she didn't actually think anything snarky when he'd had his gun to her head. Omega was more than capable of killing her - and she hated him for it.

Yet he is somehow strangely attractive.

Clearly, she wanted to die more than she'd originally believed.

"Who was the one who placed the bounty on his head anyway Layla? Who would want someone like Keito dead?"

Siren twirled a black lock of Jude's hair around her finger and kept the adoring smile firmly engraved onto her lips. "His father, I'm quite sure," she whispered. The bartender glanced over and she immediately softened her gaze. My true love, you are the prince of my bed and I am so honoured to be your wife. We must make 9 babies, at least. 9 little Jude's and Siren's running about stealing and killing. "He doesn't want Keito dead - at least, not yet. The bounty asked for him to be captured alive."

"Mrs. Leina Enzberg?"

Abruptly pulling away from Jude, Siren swivelled around to face a tall, indigo haired man. "That's me!" she smiled brightly. Her straight teeth practically sparkled in the man's face with all her enthusiasm. "You must be Gilas." He's a lot younger than I expected - tougher, too. Siren could tell he was a swordsman by the very obvious sword at his belt, the scars and the way he stood. Probably a military officer. Well, that just sucks, doesn't it, Siren? "This is my husband, Dude Enzberg."

Yeah, Dude was a bad name choice.
