“I will give you a kiss when you come back safely,” Jade says to me, and I cannot contain my surprise or my happiness at hearing what she said.
I lay back on my pillow and look at the clock, it is midnight, I need to get some rest before tomorrow, so I will think about our call later on. I think the tides are finally turning in my favor and I want to get this fight with the Howling Wolf pack over with quickly so I can see my Jade. I turn onto my side and try to go to sleep. I need to be up at 430 to get ready to go at 5 when they get here. I fall asleep with a smile on my face.
Tyler’s Perspective
I was up at 2 am to get ready. I will be driving our SUV there and wanted to make sure that we had everything that we needed for this fight. Each of the marksmen was carrying a large duffle bag of magazines and their protective gear. Three times the amount of ammunition that we figured that they would need because if you need it, you need it there with you and not 5 hours away from you. Calvin had let his dad know that we would be there today and so he got Eric’s sister Jocelyn Taylor to come on a trip with them out of town for the debate team, so she could watch her best friend, Erin Williams, Calvin’s little sister debate. They would not be returning to the pack until later on today as they were in Chandler for the debate event, and they were going to go see some sights and go to the mall to burn up some time. Beta Williams also said that the Alpha had another son, a half-brother to Eric that was 16 years old and could be trained up to be the next Alpha, that he would only hold onto the title until the young man could be trained up to take over after he completed Alpha Training in Tempe.
I knew Tate was already up as I heard him in the shower this morning when I was leaving my room to come down, and I saw Braxton and Mason in the Dining room getting coffee when I entered to get mine.
“I know it is early, but we needed to get on the road to be able to get Stone Moon and pick them up and still arrive early at the Howling Wolf pack. You can sleep in the SUV if you want to, I don’t mind driving while you guys rest” I tell them.
“Nah, I usually get up to get ready for training, I am good. We can just go to bed early tonight if we need to” Braxton tells me and Mason nods in agreement.
We all hear someone walking towards us and I turn and see Jade coming up to us with a robe over her nightclothes. She walks up to me and grabs me in a tight hug, not saying anything, just hugging me. I feel the front of my shirt getting wet and I pull back to look at her.
“I am sorry I got your shirt wet. I am just worried about you, so you better not get hurt by any of those idiots. I love you and I don’t want you to get hurt, so please be careful. Some of them are morons, but they are strong morons.” Jade tells me as she looks up at me with tears in her eyes.
“The same goes for you Mason, do not get hurt. I know you are strong, but please stay safe, because I love you too” Jade tells him as she hugs him tightly too.
“Braxton, I know you know how to fight too, but please stay safe. You are like a bonus brother to me, and it would hurt me if you got hurt trying to keep me safe. So, follow your own rules that you teach us, and keep alert” Jade tells him.
“Hey, what about me, your favorite brother?” I hear Tate say when he comes into the room and sees Jade crying and hugging Braxton.
“Come here Tate, I love you too. Please be cautious. You don’t have your wolf yet, and I am worried for your safety. Please pay attention, I know you have like a second sense already for one of your gifts but keep yourself safe, I know the wolf inside of you will give you the extra senses that you need to have today. I want you to come back in one piece and with your wonderful sense of humor, still intact” Jade tells Tate as she hugs him tightly.
Tate smirks over at me and winks, “I told you I was her favorite brother” he says to the group, and we all laugh. He has taken the overbearing weight of what we have to get done off of us by giving us all a good laugh, and that is a big help, so we can focus on what we need to and not on the fact that we are actually going to war this morning.
