I heard Emmy walk in with my dress. She went straight to my closet and hung it up. “How are you feeling?” Jasper walked in front ofand held out a cup.
“Sore.” I said as I reached out and took it.
“Emmy said you might want shot chocolate.”
Jasper said as she cout of the bedroom. Alec went back to the fire.
“Thank you.” I said as Emmy crawled under the blanket and sat beside me.
“You saved my life today.” Emmy whispered.
“Sounds like you need to start training again.” I said as I took a sip.
“How’s your thigh?” Jasper asked.
“It’s fine. I’m really just sore from trying to get on the ice.” “The bite didn’t go too deep. Plus, the cold water helped stop any bleeding so it’s really looking good.” Alec said as he stood up.
“I bet you are tired. We can talk tomorrow if need be?” Jasper looked atand then over at Alec.
“Where’s Adalynn?” I asked Alec.
“She is in her room sleeping. Vivian just left.” That really sucked. I knew the hospital stay forcedto miss her bedtbut part ofwas hoping she was awake. “It’s fine. We can talk now.” I said but I really just wanted everyone to go away.
“You sure?” Emmy asked.
“Yeah, we are sleeping in tomorrow so don’t call me.” The hot chocolate felt amazing as it went down my throat.
The front door opened. Turning, we watched Colt walk in, take off his boots and cinto the livingroom.
“You’re looking better.” He said as he crouched down next to me. The back of his hand touched my cheek and forehead before he stood up and frowned. “Still feeling cold.” “The shower really helped.” “Did you find anything out?” Alec got straight to it. He wasn’t in the mood to talk but it was either now or in the morning.
“No. The men in the lake aren’t going to be able to be retrieve. It’s too cold for divers right now. The one I assSierra killed is unrecognizable. So, we have one of them. He’s not on any data base for where he might belong. There aren’t any markings on him either.” “We we have nothing.” “How is he unrecognizable?” Jasper asked.
“She had his head between her legs. Reaching around, her claws dug into his neck and pulled it apart. Part of his face might have cwith it.” I shrugged.
“Damn.” Jasper shook his head and looked at Emmy.
“Can I start training again?” She asked him.
“Yeah, okay.” Jasper shook his head and looked at Alec.
“We have nothing to go on.” “Maybe it was a freak thing?” Emmy tried.
Alec folded his arms and sat down on the fireplace. His eyes stayed onfor the most part unless he was talking to someone.
“Highly unlikely. We need to think about who else it could be.” “So far, their attempts have been pretty minimal. The attack at my pack was smaller and they sent four to attack the girls. That trip was a last minute decision. It might have been an opportunity kind of thing.” Colt tried to rationalize things. “There are still people who supported Rip. They could have just seen the girls and said, why not.” “Let’s stay alert and hope these are just normal pack attacks. We all know the risks of traveling to neutral territory.” Colt tried to down play it like it wasn’t a direct attack on us.
“Hey! Why are you assuming it will bethat gets hurt? Next tit is your turn!” “Nope. Next tI am going to throw you in front of them to save myself. I just need to be faster than you.” My eyes traveled down her body and back up. Giving her a disapproving look.
“Exactly, you are suppose to die to protect me. If I happen to toss you in harms way to save myself, no one will be around to ratout. You will be dead.” Shrugging, it was really her loss. “Sorry for you luck.”
“To think I brought you your dress even.”
Emmy shook her head at me.
“It’s really anyone else’s turn to get hurt. I’m tired of being that person.”
“Hey! I got hurt pretty bad last time! I almost died!”
Jasper raised his hands up in his defense.
“True.”
I nodded.
“I still saved your ass.”
“Getting back to the topic at hand.”
Colt sighed.
“I haven’t heard back from the other alphas. They will all be here next weekend for the ball. So far, none of them have been attacked so other than being aware, I’m not sure what else we can do.”
“I have to go to the shop tomorrow.”
“I’ll swing by and check on you.”
Colt offered.
“I’ll be around as well. There are a few things I need to do.”
Alec stood up and cracked his knuckles.
“Isn’t Calvin suppose to start tomorrow?”
Emmy asked.
“Yeah. He passed his classes and is ready to start. I have a few people lined up that have multiple tattoos that are willing to let him work on them. I promised I would fix any fuck ups for no charge.”
I said as I yawned.
“Let’s get going.”
Jasper looked at his watch.
“We need to get up early as well.”
Emmy sighed but wiggled out from the chair.
“I’ll bring you lunch at the shop.”
“Sounds good. Make it something hot.”
“Will do.”
Emmy reached out and squeezed my hand before she walked to the front door.
“Feel better.”
Jasper said as he was passed.
“Thank you for saving Emmy.”
“Anytime.”
What was I going to do, let her die? As soon as they were out of the door, Colt came over and sat down on the edge of the chair.
“Ice, you’re not okay.”
It was a statement, not a question.
“I’honestly don’t know why I went there. When I set fire to the packhouse, Ilet go of all the hatred and negative feelings. I haven’t even thought about that whole ordeal.”
“It was a very real trauma. Suppression isn’t healing. You have to stop pushing your feelings down and work through them.”
Colt put his hand on my boot.
“Exactly how do you suppose I do that? Everyone is dead. There isn’t a reason I should still have any negative feelings and it isn’t like I am walking around reliving it. I’ve been going to work by myself. I’ve raised Adalynn and never once have I had a thought about it. I don’t feel anything.”
“What do you feel?”
Colt pushed.
“Right now, cold.”
Colt gave me a look that told me he wasn’t happy with my answer.
“Come on, be serious. I’m worried about you.”
“I don’t know what you want me to say. I don’t dream about it. Have I woken up crying or yelling out?”
Looking at Alec.
“No.”
“All I can say is it was very similar. It was a near death experience and my mind just related the two. I wasn’t sure what was going on around me and a trauma like that isn’t something someone get’s over. It’s something you learn to live with and I think I’ve adapted very well.”
I looked at Alec for help.
“Have I not been checking in more? I’ve been more open about my feelings. Hell, I even made you stay in the shower with me so I wasn’t alone.”
“I’m just saying I’m worried about you. Seeing you thrash around on the hospital bed was a deja vu that I didn’t need to have. It affects us too when you almost die.”
“I promise I will try to work on whatever is going on with me when I figure it out.”
I wasn’t sure what he wanted me to say. I still didn’t believe I had a problem.
Colt gave me a look but eventually gave up.
“I’ll be bugging you about this until I’am satisfied you are mentally okay.”
“You’re not mentally okay. When was the last time you got a full nights sleep?”
Colt pointed a finger at me.
“Don’t turn this around on me.”
Finishing off my hot chocolate, I looked at his expression. He was trying not to smile and remain serious.
