Chapter 213
“Oh. I think Luna Kristen is handling her trauma very well. She is out there still doing what she needs to do for our pack. She isn’t thinking about herself right now and I think that shows how brave she is.” Jasper stood up for me.
“Suppressing trauma isn’t healthy either.” Luna Erin said quietly. “She has been pacing around and jumping at every single sound.”
“I can’t say I blame her for that. I would expect anyone to be that way after being kidnapped. You heard her recording.”
“Yes, I did…. Just keep a close eye on her. Will you?” Luna Erin said. Her voice sounded like she was walking away from Jasper.
Jasper walked out and closed the door as the vans came back around. He walked up to me as Emmy got up and started loading the vans again. He gave me a look but didn’t say anything. Instead, we watched as everyone climbed in. There was still one more load to go and we hadn’t heard anything yet. Jasper picked up his phone and looked at it. Nothing. I wasn’t sure if that was a good thing or bad.
“How long should the mission have lasted?” I asked as the vans drove off.
“Hard telling. Depends on if they ran into any complications.”
“What if it all went correctly?”
“Not sure. Maybe thirty minutes to an hour. We weren’t sure the layout completely and what was all
inside. They might have found something that caused the plan to shift.”
“Colt went with them.” I stated.
“Yes.” Jasper glanced down at me.
“And my dad…”
“Yes.” Jasper answered again.
“So, Jacob is watching the pack there.”
“And most of their warriors.” Jasper sighed.
“Are you sending Emmy with the last group of people?” I asked looking up at him.
Jasper looked down at me intently. “What about me? Emmy walked up to us and sl*pped under Jasper’s
armi.
“Kristen asked if you were going to go on the last group of people going over.” Jasper filled in for her.
“Oh!” Emmy looked surprised.
“I wasn’t sure if you would feel safer there. With everything going on, I wouldn’t be upset if you wanted to go. It might even give our pack a familiar face to make it more comfortable.”
“Do you think I should go?” Emmy looked up at Jasper.
“I want you save. I want our baby safe.” Jasper responded after a moment.
“We don’t know how long they will even be over there for.” Emmy looked down. “I might be away from you for days if not weeks!”
“I doubt it would be that long but he would be able to visit you.” I promised.
“Maybe it’s not a bad idea.” Jasper looked down at her.
“I’ll give you guys some privacy to talk about it.” I said as I walked away. I was needing to sit down. My shoulders were hurting and so were my feet. Sitting down on the step, I just stared off into the stars. It wasn’t until the vans show up again that I snapped out of my trans.
Standing up, I watched as the rest of our pack members got into the van. Jasper walked Emmy over and put her in the front seat next to Clint. After everyone was in, Jasper shut the doors.
“Is that all of it?” Clint asked.
“I believe so. Thank you for doing this.” I said.
“It is my pleasure. This was smooth sailing so far. One last trip and we are done. I’ll have Alpha Colt pick up the walkie talkie at a later date. That way you can still hear we made it okay.”
“Thank you so much.” I said as Clint got into the drivers seat.
“Be safe!” Emmy leaned forward and yelled at me. noveldrama
“You too.” I gave her a little wave before taking a few steps back and watched as the vans drove out of sight for the last time.
“This sucks.” Jasper sighed as he put his hands on his hips.
“Agreed” Turning around, I walked up the stairs and sat down on the porch swing. Jasper followed me but stopped short of sitting down beside me.
