“They separated us,” he said, sounding so small and broken.
“I know. I tried to stop it.”
“They’ll just do it again,” he insisted.
“We’ll find a way to keep you all together.”
Cam proceeded to come to me and this time, Noah didn’t stop him.
I squatted down with open arms and he ran full speed for me, wrapping his small arms around my neck.
“I missed you,” I told him.
“I missed you, too,” he whispered.
“I’ll find Kyle and let him deal with it from here. I just thought you’d want to know they were safe,” Isaac surprised me by saying.
“The Alpha? You called the Alpha? Are you crazy?” Noah yelled.
Isaac looked way out of his element. And turned to me for help. It was almost comical. My big strong mate that everyone was scared of was terrified of a couple of kids.
“Why can’t we just stay here?” Mason asked. “I like it here. It’s warm and the food is good.”
“My food you little street urchin. You pigs stole that from me.”
“We were hungry,” Cam whispered to me.
“It’s okay,” I assured him.
“It’s not okay,” Isaac said.
I glared up at him. “Would you be nice for five seconds, please?”
“No. This is my house. Mine.”
“You’ve already made that clear, but they’re scared and you aren’t helping the situation.”
He growled and stomped back up the stairs.
“Stay here and I’ll figure it out.”
“Okay, Ms. Vanessa.”
I ran up the stairs behind Isaac. Once I was clear, he raised the stairs again.
“What are you doing?”
“If you want to stay down there, then stay down there, but you aren’t getting away this time.”
“Was that really necessary?” I asked him.
He shrugged.
“Ms. Vanessa?” Cam yelled.
“You’re okay. I’ll be back shortly. Stay put. I promise you everything will be okay.”
“I’ll find Kyle. He can decide what to do with my rodent problem.”
