“Girl.” Looking at her, I laughed to tease her. Emmy was on the ground, trying to make her ankle injury go away with a rub.
“F uck, I know.” She sounded angry. Tossing her hands up, she looked pitifully up at the sky.
Alec gently took my chin as we straddled the log. I kept my hands down so my privates weren’t showing. Alec was gentle as he picked piece by piece, all the glass out of my face.
“Most of this will be gone by morning.” I said, trying to make it sound like it was no big deal.
“How’s the ribs?” He asked, completely ignoring my statement.
“Actually, not bad.”
“Probably still the adrenaline.” Jacob muttered. Looking over, he was watching Alec work.
“Yeah.” Alec muttered. He had moved to my neck and collar bone. Enough he had to move my t-shirt.
“Anymore anywhere?”
With one hand, I opened my shirt to look. “Don’t think so.” The hell I was going to tell him regardless.
“Need help looking?” Jacob joked. His date slapped him.
We all busted up laughing. “What? It wasn’t like I was going to get lucky after this.” He was standing by her but not touching. She didn’t look like she cared that much anyway.
“Jacob, you will never get lucky with me.” Laughing, I turned so I wasn’t straddling the log and crossed my
legs.
“Are you guys mates? You have really good chemistry together.” Jacob’s date was looking at Alec and I.
There was an awkward silence.
“I’m not 18 until Friday.” I said to her.
“Oh…”
“How far are we from the pack? Emmy asked quickly. She knew the answer but it got the topic changed. I
appreciated her tack fullness.*
“A good ten miles. It will be a little but yet.” Jasper and Alec were walking around like they were looking
for danger. The owls were hooting so I felt like the danger had passed.
The longer we sat here, the quicker my adrenaline was wearing off, and the soreness was settling in.
into my back regardless of my position. Each motion caused more pain. After a few tries, I gave up and
laid in the ground. The dirt wasn’t the most comfortable but it was better than the tree. I was slightly
sloped downward so I had to shift a little to make sure the blood didn’t rush to my head.
“You doing okay?” Opening my eyes, Alec was looking at me. His hand twitched like he wanted to touch
me but with all the eyes, he didn’t.
“Ready for a shower and bed.” Closing my eyes again, I let the sounds of the night drift me off to sleep. I
felt safe with the guys here. At some point Emmy joined me and we cuddled.
Next thing I knew, headlights were shining on me. “Kristen!” Dad’s voice boomed, shaking the trees.
I’m okay!” I said as I yawned.
“Your head…” Dad examined me. Coming up to my as I was trying to sit up, his hands grabbed my head.
gently.
“It’s probably almost healed. Just little scrapes. Once I clean up, I will look good as new” I tried to stand
up but it was still sore.
“Here.” Dad picked me up and helped me stand on my own feet before Emmy helped me walk to the
vehicle.
“Jacob, take the girls home. We will finish everything here.” Dad commanded.
“Yes, Alpha.” As soon as the vehicle started rolling, Emmy and I were out. We didn’t open our eyes until
we pulled into the packhouse.
“Emmy, wake up.” I shook her as I got out and we walked up to my bedroom. We both showered at the
same time. Making the floor of the shower a brownish red. It stung a little but Alec was able to get all the
glass out nicely. Pulling out two sets of silk pajamas from my closet, I handed one to her, I got into the
other. We both sl*pped into my bed. We were out as soon as our heads hit the pillows.
I was vaguely aware of voices in my bedroom before I heard my door shut. I wasn’t even sure if Emmy was still in my bed or not but it was impossible for me to wake up and see what was happening.
