Chapter 0129


    “It’s okay, I’m okay, we''re okay.”’ I just keep whispering the mantra into his neck until he finally


    wraps his arms around my waist and hugs me back. I have no idea how long we sat like that. Both


    of us just let thest couple of minutes set in and process.


    “That was so f*cking scary, Bitty. I have never felt anything like that before.” He’s talking into my hair


    and it’s so low, it’s less than a whisper, but the silence of the room lets me know others are listening


    in. His arms tighten around me.


    ‘How did you get to me so fast? How did you find me? I haven’t even been up here that long.” I ask,


    not moving my face from his neck.


    ‘We were actually looking for you, when you never came back from the bathroom and I got this


    sharp pain in my chest. It hurt so much I almost copsed.


    Then my wolf shouted your name and basically took over my body and brought me up here. Your


    lips were blue when I got to you, I panicked and didn''t know what else to do. I’m sorry.”


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    He took another deep breath, his nose buried in my hair. His body is calming down, but his mind


    and his emotions are still holding tension I don’t understand. He felt my pain.


    How could he feel my pain? It was the pain of a memory, nothing real. And how did his wolf know


    where to find me? Too many questions for my brain right now.


    “That was scary for more than just the two of you.” I notice a voice very close to my back. “What


    happened?” Cam''s deep voice rumbles as he wraps an arm around my waist and tries to pull me


    into hisp, Oliver loosens his grip, but doesn’t let me go right away, a small whimper escaping his


    lips.


    “I squeezed his hand. “I’m okay, not going far.” I slide back into Cam’sp, but keep my legs across


    Oliver''s and he instinctively wraps his hand around my ankle, like it will keep me from disappearing.


    The rumbling in Cam’s chest calms down a little as I get closer to him. That’s where the growling


    sound has beening from. But, why? Why would he be mad at Oliver for saving me? It''s a


    question for another time. So many questions forter.


    “Mom, what happened?” Kota asks as calmly as he possibly can. I can feel the fear radiating off of


    him too. Hees to sit in front of Cam on the floor. I reach out to y with his hair, knowing he


    needs contact just like Oliver and Cam.


    She ryed what she was telling me, this obviously wasn''t new news to any of the guys and Sierra.


    They had all been up when everything started to go crazy.


    She looked in my direction every few seconds like she was waiting for another episode. When she


    got to the part about the silver, which was news to the guys, I scrambled back into Oliver’sp, like


    he was the only one who could battle that demon with me. My arms locked around him and my face


    buried in his neck again, his scent seems to be the only thing that is helping me battle the torment


    of what happened to another wolf and the fact that it might have something to do with me. He just


    gently rubs my back, not saying anything, conveying everything in his light touches.


    “What’s the n, mom? You and Luna Anne can’t just stay holed up forever. And it doesn’t seem


    like we’ve made much progress with finding the asshole who did this.” Kota asks, I don’t look up


    from Oliver’s shoulder, I’m really tired all of a sudden.


    “I think Lucas and Reggie have what they need for now. Patrols will be increased and a higher


    security protocol will be in ce. Now, please remember, none of the details I have given you have


    been told to pack members. We have more questions than


    answers and don’t want to incite panic. If you have thoughts about the situation or want to discuss it


    further, this is the only safe space in the packhouse.”


    “But, not even our...” Kota starts.


    ‘No, not even your floor can be considered safe yet, and based on Oliver’s instinctsst night and


    today the target of the threat is still unclear, and we have to assume all ranked members and future


    leaders are in danger. Trust his Gamma instincts, they are designed to keep the Luna safe. Just as


    the Beta’s instincts are to keep the Alpha Safe. Brett was a little crazyst night too, he didn’t leave


    my side until I came up here with a full guard. Stick together and none of you are to go anywhere


    alone. Not even the bathroom at school. Now we are stuck here until Lucas and Reggie return,


    which will beter this evening. I’m going to bring Xander up and we can all get something to eat,


    then I imagine all of you could use a nap.”
