Piper POV

Finally, they both got the message, and got in the car. It was moving and they saw were headed after Izzy, Piper leaned back in the backseat. There was nothing she could do about it till they got there, so try to stay calm and let Harper heal her up as best she could.

Felt Brandon’s small hand in hers, opened her eyes and looked at him, smiled at him softly, it was going to be alright, they would get Izzy back. She was taken by two humans is all and though Izzy herself was still human, she was bound to a werewolf, nothing but death separated a bonded pair. Eddie would never give up the hunt, and Piper knew it.

Eddie would catch up to them at the airport or Izzy would holler at the police once there. There was no way in hell she was going home with Phillip of all people. Her father should have come for her himself. And how they were going to get her through customs without her passport? They couldn’t.

Closed her eyes and swore “Don’t go to the airport, they're not there, Izzy’s passport will be with her luggage at the hotel.”

“Do you think she’ll take them there?” it was Bradley.

Piper thought about that for only a minute, then nodded “Yes, she’ll be looking for an opportunity to get away and head for your room, you and your men.

Seeing as I’m here and Eddie?”

“Good. Cooper head for the hotel, it's a good assessment and covering both places is a good plan.” she found his eyes on her.

“What?”

“Nothing, it’s a good plan.”

“It just makes sense is all, can’t even buy a plane ticket out of the country without passport numbers. I should have thought of it right away.”

“You were injured Piper, a lot of pain and so likely distracted.” Saw his eyes move to Brandon. “We’ll get Izzy back. I’ll not stop looking and neither will Eddie till we have her back. I promise you this.”

Looked at Brandon herself, he did look very upset, wanted to pull him into her lap but couldn’t while the car was moving, smiled reassuringly at him and squeezed his little hand gently. There was not much she could do but reassure him at this point.

“Is the pain bad?” he asked quietly.

“Not so much now, only at the time, and Harper is already healing me.”

“Feels all tingly when Aspen heals my cuts and grazes.”

“It does, kind of like...pins and needles.” Piper smiled down at him, “but without that hideous pain on movement.”

“I hate that bit when I sit on my feet too long and then got to get up.” Brandon shuddered.

She smiled “No one does, very annoying for all.”

They pulled up outside the front of the hotel, and Piper realised that it was likely that neither Bradley or Cooper would know what Phillip looked like, asked that very question as Cooper got out the car, got a resounding ‘No’ from both of them, and why would they he was human and of no consequence to them or Eddie, or shouldn’t have been.

Watched as Cooper opened Brandon’s door and leaned in and unbuckled the boy, then just picked him up from his seat and took him from the car.

Surprised her more than a little, even more that Brandon just allowed it. Guess he was learning to trust them already, he had seen them come to aid and help her. She also knew he was actively getting along with Eddie.Though it had looked like Eddie was hindering Brandon playing his game on her phone at the store, she'd seen the boy smile a few times, and Eddie had, apparently while she was sleeping, congratulated the boy on beating Harry, and told him they would have a rematch, he was cheated into losing. Brandon had told him he was on, that the challenge was accepted.
