Ash and I smile at Zoey as we step into her room. She’s in her pj’s playing with her dolls and talking to one of her imaginary friends. She doesn’t look from her dolls as we stop behind her.

“Hey.” She says, tucking in one of her child dolls.

“Hey Zobear, it’s bedtime.” I tell her.

She sets her other dolls in their house and scoots back. “Okay.”

Ash moves over to Zoey’s bed as she climbs on top of it. She crisscrosses her legs and looks up at us with her usually serious face.

“Goodnight, honey. We love you so much and we’ll see you in the morning.” Ash whispers, kissing Zoey on the forehead before stepping back.

“I’ll see you in the morning. I love you.” I say with a kiss on her head as well.

Zoey looks at me. “Promise?”

“Y-yea.” I say, taken aback. What is this all about? “Of course baby. We’re not going anywhere. We’ll never leave you. I’ll see you tomorrow morning with pancakes ready on the table.”

She nods. “Okay. Goodnight. I love you.” She gives us one of her small smiles and climbs under the covers.

After I shut the door Ash turns to look at me. “What was that about?”

“I have no clue. She’s never been afraid of us leaving before.” I say, heading towards our bedroom.

Zoey’s worry abates in our thoughts as our door shuts behind us. Ash smiles at me, a familiar glint coming into her eyes. “So, Cole Montgomery.” She purrs, using the name of our identities, “Shall we celebrate our engagement?”

Her voice sends shivers down my spine. “Yes please, Alexis Montgomery” I reply, pulling her close.

She kisses me and we move towards the bed. I reach out for the bedside table for a condom but she stops me. “No. I want another baby.” She says, her green eyes looking up at me.

I smile. “Okay.”

“Jayden. Ash.” Fenris’s voice hisses, waking me from my sleep.

I sit up and look at him, Ash waking up beside me. “What?” I ask. He’s never done this before. What’s going on?

“Lance is here. I saw some of his pack across the street and I can smell him out there.” Fenris rushes out quietly.

Ash’s eyes go wide. “Zoey.” She mutters, throwing clothes on.

I nod, throwing a shirt on and rushing with her across the house. She throws Zoey’s door open and gasps. I come up beside her and see why. Zoey’s bed is empty and her window is open. Outside I can hear the howls of the pack.

“Okay. Fenris, go find Zoey and keep her safe. Ash and I will hold off the pack.” I tell them. Anger courses through me.

Fenris and Ash nod and change into wolves. Fenris jumps out the open window while Ash and I turn and run out to the front door. The time for running and hiding is over.
