The Moon Saviors

Chapter 3

~’~’~’~’~

“Mia I swear if you don’t wake up in the next two seconds I will throw ice water on you and your new bed!” a threatening voice called out. I rolled to my left and fell out of bed. Laughter filled the room.

Glaring up I saw Rieley. Who was trying to keep upright and standing. She wasn’t really doing well her laughing was throwing her off balance. I got up and walked over to my bathroom.

“I get to dress you today!” she said as if I don’t have a choice… and really I don’t at all.

I looked at myself in the mirror my dirt covered clothes were clinging to me. I pealed them off and jumped into the shower.

After my ten minute shower I stepped out and towel dried off. With a towel wrapped around me I stepped into my room Rieley was reading a book on a black sofa in my room my clothes set out on my bed. I grabbed a pair of underwear and a matching bra and threw the towel at my bathroom door.

I looked at the clothes set out in front of me.

“What’s the occasion?” I asked Rieley she grinned at me from her book.

“My dad’s pack is stopping by.” I smiled at her. I loved her father, but he was one big man.

“Oh fine.” I sighed defeated. I slid on the metallic shirt over my bra. I slid the slightly ripped skinny jeans over my legs. I sat on my bed and put my gray boots on and then walked over to my jewelry box and pulled out a blue bracelet and ring.

I was about to turn around when Rieley pushed me down to do my hair. Rieley loved doing my hair ever since we were kids. And this was the first opportunity in years that she has been able to do so.

In the end my hair was pulled back and up and pinned up with thousands of bobby pins. It looked great but I was going to count all the bobby pins when I took it out tonight.

I looked at Rieley she wore an outfit like mine but opposite. She had light jeans on, a dark shirt, black boots and her hair was down and curled.

We walked downstairs to the living room to see Jaxton walk in with scratches all down his arms. I gasped and pushed him into a chair. He looked wore out. I grabbed my handy first aide kit and knelt in front of him.

“Arm.” I told him he handed me his right arm.

“Why are you so dressed up?” he asked Rieley knowing I wouldn’t respond.

“Dad’s pack is stopping by. Mia is like his own ya know.” She smiled Jax nodded and inhaled deeply as I treated the wounds. Jaxton jerked his arm away as soon as I got to a blood pool on his arm. I narrowed my eyes.

“Jaxton Redwood you give me your arm.” Reluctantly he gave it back. I narrowed my eyes.

“Jax… you have a bullet in your arm.” I told him in full anger. He shrugged. Fine he was gonna be unresponsive to me I’ll make him feel something. With my fast movements I stuck two fingers and pulled out the bullet as fast as I could. Jax screamed.

“And the troop comes a running…” Rieley said and went to open the door so it wouldn’t get broken.

“What’s going on?!” Gage asked concerned. I flicked a bloody bullet his way and he smirked. “You are one cruel woman you know that?” he asked. I grinned.

“Now Jaxton I will pour alcohol on that and make you scream even more if you don’t tell me how you got it.” I informed him with a shrug.

He started talking right away. “When you left I went to tell my dad about the hunter. He told me to get rid of him… He’s been on one of those kicks lately. I have to do everything for myself. So I did. I went after the guy and he shot me then I went to dad… who lost his cool and well…” he pointed to the scratches.
