Chapter 0580
I woke up before Kristen did. Sliding out of bed, I managed to use the bathroom before Kristen started to stir.
“You were going to leave me here?” “I was hoping I didn’t wake you.” Walking into the bedroom, Kristen was trying to scoot herself up. “You leaving the bed wakes me up. Can you get me some sweats and we can spend the afternoon by the fire?” “Sure.” Going to the closet, her loosest sweats she owned was about to fall apart but she loved the rag.
It was fairly easy to get her into her sweats. I still didn’t have a shirt on but that didn’t bother me. As careful as
possible, I picked up Kristen and carried her to the couch. She was biting my arm to keep from yelling out.in pain.
“Look! It’s mommy!” Vivian was walking down the stairs. “We just woke up from our nap too!” “Hey, baby girl!” Kristen cooed. Vivian laid Adalynn down on Kristen. Taking a blanket, I covered them both up and turned on some cartoon on the T.V.
Adalynn turned around and snuggled next to Kristen and I went to go make a bottle.
“How did she sleep?” I asked Vivian.
“Really good. She is a very easy baby.” “I appreciate you letting me take a
nap.” I told her, “Of course! I'll get our of your hair but let me know if you need me. I can always come back in a moments notice.” Vivian waved as she headed towards the door.
“Will do, thank you again!” I yelled.
“Thank you!” Kristen yelled from the couch.
“Feel better!” Shaking the bottle, I was able to hand it to Adalynn before grabbing my cell phone. Sitting down on the other end of the couch, I pulled up my text message and sent one to Colt.
Me: We are awake and you can come over anytime. noveldrama
After a few minutes, I got a reply Colt: Okay.
“Can you start a fire?” Kristen asked.
“Oh shit, yeah.” That slipped my mind.
Getting up, I started putting the fire wood in the fire place. “Colt will be here shortly to update us on what has been discussed.” “Okay » “Do you need anything to eat or drink? Need any pain medicine?” I asked her as the fire came to life.
“Not right now. Thank you.” Kristen didn’t even look at me but kept running her fingers through Adalynn’s hair. As Adalynn watched her cartoon, Kristen watched Adalynn and I watched them both. Sitting just a few
feet from me was my entire life and damned if I didn’t want another baby more now then I did before. ~—— “Hello?” Colt yelled as he opened the door. I had almost forgot he was coming over.
“In here!” Kristen yelled.
There was two loud thuds before Colt walked into the livingroom. “How are you feeling sis?” Colt asked Kristen but leaned down and tickled Adalynn. She reached for him and he graciously accepted her hug.
“Was great until you stole my daughter.” «pechnically, she is my daughter too.” Colt walked over to another chair and sat down. He put her on his lap and was making faces as her. Adalynn’s little
giggle was music to my ears. & “Gross.” - I was with Kristen on that one. “Did you get with Gunther before he left?” I asked, jumping right into it.
“1 did. He swears he didn’t know anything about it.I puta command on him and everything. He did say that he has been using your cabin as a safe house. He found it when you were first building it. He was under cover and would always cover his tracks so you wouldn't know.” “pamn. Why didn’t he just ask?” Kristen look shocked.
“Get real, sis. He wasn’t going to ask that.” Colt looked at Kristen like she just asked the stupidest question possible. Which, it was a really stupid
question.
“Anything on the blood?” I asked.
“yup. It made a hit immediately. Came back to a warrior was part of Alpha Rip’s pack that is listed a someone who died in battle.” “He was listened as deceased?” I clarified.
“yup.” Colt nodded. “He supposedly died awhile ago.” “yet. he didn’t actually die until last night.” Kristen stated.
«rhe other DNA was the same. Listed as deceased. Only two DNAs found so you managed to rip someone’s heart out quite literally and probably nicked the arty of the second. The bullet hasn't come back yet but I would assume it is registered to the dead
man.” © “Why is everything always a puzzle?” Kristen rolled her eyes and turned off the T.V. Adalynn immediately started crying so she turned it back on but turned the volume down.
“Did Gunther leave to go back under?” I asked, half ignoring Kristen's question.
“He did. Left earlier this morning. I have a two SUVs lined up for us to take tomorrow. They are getting the oil changed and car seats putin. With you having to keep weight off your thigh, it would be too much for us all to take on.
This way, vou can lay in the back and relax as Alec drives. You can take care of Adalynn’s needs.” «phat would be a lot of babies in one vehicle.” Kristen nodded.
“you only have one baby to listen to cry. I have three.” “No, I have two babies to listen to whine.” I said as I stood up. My back was turned but I expected the pillow that hit my back.
