Graham is a werewolf that really really wants to have sex with Anita but she doesn't want to fuck him. In light of a previous poster's comments, my guess here is that Graham might be willing to have sexy times near JC (if not with JC because, although a rare beast, purely hetero characters do occasionally exist within these books) but Anita nipped that in the bud with her unspoken "JC doesn't get to feed the lust unless I'm involved or doing the sexing" thing. Which is too bad because Graham would get his awesome orgasms and JC would get snacks without having to get messy himself.
Anita asks Nicky if Graham knows everything that happens last night, Nicky nods, Anita tells Graham to guard this door and if anything happens to Nathaniel she'll kill him. a.) I'm not sure why Graham should actively care that two spineless, unmemorable members of the harem and the one man with his balls still attached in St. Louis died. From his perspective, they're probably even less than acquaintances. I mean, has he even met any of those three lions? b.) I'm not even convinced that Anita genuinely cares. c.) And I fail to see how Graham's lack of sympathy for the dead would somehow translate into him being bad at his job. Guarding shit and giving a damn about others are two mutually exclusive skill sets. d.) While I agree that people should have a choice in their sexual partners, Graham is the only character in this entire series that I can remember giving informed and unequivocal consent to being magically roofied and taken advantage of while he was still in full possession of all of his faculties, not being coerced, and not under anyone's control. He's LITERALLY the only man, woman, or child who has ever consented to the whole Anita shebang and she is not only completely uninterested in him, she's scornful of his interest too. e.) The Anita & Graham interaction is reverse slut-shaming. f.) Yeah, Anita wants willing, consent, adult partners who are equals in the relationship, sane, and capable of making their own, informed decisions. Really. Ignore my laughter.
Maybe she wants someone she knows she can trust, which is understandable, but do note that she didn't do the same for Claudia. Claudia may have saved Anita's life multiple times and protected her from Haven, among others, but she sexed Micah up (or at least slept with him naked! And non-sexually!) so she's dead to Anita now.
She feels sorrow from Jason and wonders why. JJ probably took a good, hard look around and decided that she did not need this kind of crap, drama, and crime in her life and dumped Jason. No matter how handsome he is and how much she likes him, he comes with too much baggage, especially for something that's supposed to be casual. Additionally, she's served her purpose in the plot (To highlight how Anita has the prettiest, bestest, most specialest dancers in the whole, wide world without Anita having to do it herself. That way Anita could concentrate on being smug and sexist.) and has to go now.
Additionally, Jason didn't even have the bad taste to join a triumverate with Anita and yet she has access to his thoughts and feelings. I know that Anita doesn't even acknowledge that the word "violation" exists but yeah. That's what that is. Poor... everyone.
Except Anita. Of course.
...which is an odd conclusion to make based on Damian, since Damian is a daywalker to begin with. Logic is NOT Anita's friend. see the entirety of this series.
She doesn't feel Richard at the Circus at all, ...So, potentially, Anita could know where Richard is at every moment of every day? And, by extension, she would have the same information regarding anyone else that she was "connected" to? ... ... I pity them all so, so much.
"He was still too trusting, and too tied to trying to be "normal"." This is why Richard deserves to get with Joyce Summers. Sure, her one kid is a gleeful and remorseless serial killer and the other is a potentially toxic ball of glowing green energy capable of destroying all of the worlds simultaneously when the stars are aligned just right, but Joyce herself is pretty damn normal, despite her problems with obliviousness and alcohol.
