Chapter 77
I can't keep my eyes off wade and Breena. The longer they talk the lower his shoulders drop. Soon his head is hanging and she's walking toward him. Wrapping her arms around him, he melts into her wrapping his arms around her waist. A clearing of my throat brings me back to where I am. Looking back at the woman “let's start with I am William Samuels.” with a tilt of her head it's then she realizes I didn’t give her my name. Smiling “oh I know. Who else would fit the description Ambrose gave me on his way through a while ago. Said to expect you.” dismissively waving her hands. That old man I swear if he wasn’t busy trying to figure out the spells being used to hide scents and attacks. Having Brent's mate and witch halfling in my cells turned out to be a blessing as it's her blood he would need to reverse the spells since she won't talk.
Staring at her at a loss as to what Ambrose is up to. “he said you would be on a long journey and will be hungry and a healer joining your journey might be helpful. Not once did he say she was mated to one of you. Though to think about it being mated to someone in a pack Ambrose speaks highly of cant be bad.” she chuckles. Soon the door opens red puffy-eyed wade comes in looking at me with sadness in his eye. Asking me for permission. When I nod he nods back. That is that he has my blessing. His pain has been different than mine we both lost so much it's time things start to brighten for him. The way she's looking at him I know she's just the one to help my friend.
Talked with Eria about the attacks on small packs around here and how she's able to stay safe. Also wondering if her trees might be able to smell the rogues. “no they can it's been baffling, to say the least. So we have been giving aid to the wolves put out sending them where the trees say to. Sent a large group no long ago to you. The trees know what the people need, and I listen to the trees.” I nodded understanding what she was saying. You can't hide your heart from the earth. After we were done eating she showed us to rooms in the back thinking that this place is bigger on the inside than on the outside. When she laughs I start to wonder if she can read minds.
Opening the door to the room she brought me to I did a double-take. The inside looks just like Allie and I’s bedroom. “it's an illusion to help you feel more comfortable helps guests sleep better.” Eria says behind me. I nod and walk-in. Walking around I can see the small differences between this room and mine. It's like a mash-up of my room now and my room when I was 15. heading to bed it's been a long day and we still have hours to still drive.
As I wake I reach out to pull Allie to me but I can't find her. Panic rises in my chest as my eyes snap open. The confusion slowly lessens as I wake up. Feeling through the bond I feel Allie there's a block up telling me she's asleep. Being so grateful for this gift Kaylin granted us for a short time. And remember to make time to talk to her about her bloodline. finally waking up all the way I get up and ready for the day. As I open the door I see wade and Breena coming from the room across from me hand in hand. Wade startles looking up then away sheepishly and I see the top of his mate mark peeking out from under his shirt. “welcome to the family Breena.” I smirk and walk away. “he's gonna kill you when you sleep you know that right will” comes johns link. “hey if he didn’t want us to know he should have worn a different shirt.” we both start laughing through the link. Taking seats in the diner the triplets already coming out with plates.
Eria comes in smiling. Sitting across from me. “morning” “good morning young alpha” she sets a small box on the table. “this is for you. Soon a choice will have to be made. When it's time open this.” looking at the small black box. It looks like one a ring is found in but it's smaller. Picking it up I find that it's so light I would question if I was holding it. The velvet softness of it. Looking at it closely I cant see a way to open it so I look up at her in question. “you will know when you can open it.” she pats my hand and gets up walking over to wade and Breena. I notice at the door are a few bags telling me Breena will be joining us. Max one of the warriors riding with wade comes over to the table “alpha, delta wade told me to report to you.” he bows his head raising my brow I looked over at wade. Is he smirking at me? I glare at him. I link wade “you ass!” and he starts laughing pulling everyone's attention. John’s eyes snap from max to wade then to me and back to max. “no he didn’t” he linked and I nod “yes max it seems we will be adding a member to the team so I need you to ride with us.” he bows “yes alpha I will move my bag right away. Do you want me to load the new member's bags?” “yes thank you” I dismiss him and he leaves. I can hear wade chuckling “told you he would kill you just didn’t know he would sick max on you.” john laughs “-is he over his techno music faze yet?” I sigh out. Max being only 17 still had some horrible taste in music. He and his father are some of our top warriors. I asked Jim to watch over Allie and brought max with us. He will turn 18 tomorrow so it's a chance at finding his mate early. And he needs someone to settle him down. Just then wade slaps a box on the table.
