liked to cook, helped his friend protect his family, and blushed when being teased about watching Lifetime. And let’s not forget that he looked pretty in pink she thought with a giggle. “Stop checking out my brother,” Nico growled playfully. Jenna just laughed at him. She was his now. The bite on her shoulder proved it. She would never stray and would never leave Nico, just as he would never do anything like that to her. Mates did not cheat and they could not stand to be apart for a long time.
“Well, tonight you will stay in the guest room,” she stated. He grinned at her. “Thanks, ma’am.”
Chapter 21
Angel pulled up in front of the little cottage and parked. She and the rest of the team jumped out and walked up the sidewalk, checking out everything on the way. They knew exactly where every enforcer was and where the weak points in their protection detail were by the time they made it to the door. It was not that the way they had things set up was wrong necessarily, but it was not the way RARE would do it. They obviously had not had the same training as the team. They had weak areas that RARE would not have had.
The door opened when they reached it, Phoenix on the other side. “Chase swapped his enforcers out with fresh ones at 6am,” he said, “But the council enforcers are still out there. They haven’t taken a rest since they showed up yesterday.”
“Go tell them to take a break. You guys can stay here while I meet with Chase, then I will come back here for our meeting,” Angel told him. “Tell them to come back later this afternoon after they have had some sleep. We will be here until at least 6pm.”
As Phoenix took off, Angel moved on into the house. Lily came running and threw herself at Angel. When she picked her up, Lily latched her arms around Angel’s neck in a tight hold. “You’re leaving again tonight,” she whisper ed against her neck. “You and Daddy and Phoenix.”
Angel held her tightly and responded, “I wasn’t planning on leaving for a couple of days, sweetheart.” Lily shook her head. “No, it has to be tonight. If you don’t go tonight, they will all die.”
Everyone froze as Lily’s words reached them. “Who will die, Lily?” Nico asked. “The mommies and kids,” Lily said. “It’s going to blow up and everyone is going to die.” Angel looked at Jenna and said, “Get Chase here now.”
Phoenix, get your ass in here now, Lily said we have to leave tonight. She said if we don’t a lot of people are going to die. Tell Ryker and Storm to get some rest, but to be back here by 1pm. We need them to watch Jenna and Lily while we are gone.
Then she sat on the couch cuddling Lily closer and said, “Lily, I need to see what you are talking about, ok? Close your eyes while I take a peek inside and see.” As Phoenix burst through the door, all of Angel’s team surrounded her as she made herself vulnerable connecting with Lily.
When Angel merged her mind with Lily’s, she told her, I need you to show me what you saw. Immediately Lily pulled up the vision so Angel could follow along. They were in what looked like some kind of a huge warehouse building. There were cages on one wall and rooms with windows on another. Angel saw a little bear cub in one cage, and two others had wolf pups in them. In one of the rooms was an extremely pregnant woman sitting on a bed with her head bowed. She was rubbing her stomach and it looked like she was singing.
Another one had a woman with long red hair. She was pregnant, but didn’t look as far along as the first woman. And she was pissed off. She was yelling at the guards on the other side of the window who in turn were laughing at her. As she yelled, her eyes seemed to widen in surprise as she stared straight back at Angel. She immediately schooled her expression and kept yelling. Angel
