ACE I watched Alexei run into the forest and heard his howl as he met up with our warriors. I helped Star into the front seat of the SUV, and kissed her, “promise me you will be safe, my darling, if anything happens, I will do as Ash tells me, so you do not have to worry about me. Just keep yourself safe, please.” Crashing my lips to hers, “you are fu.cking incredible. Do you know that? I love you Tink. I promise I will stay safe.” Ash bundles Max, Suzie, Nat and Sophia into the back of the car. Looking back at my girl, I kissed her again, and she whispered, “I love you, baby,” in my ear. I looked over at my brother, “Take care of our girls and I will meet you at home, two cars in front and I will bring up the rear. If anything happens, we will cover you, and you drive like hell, okay?”
