Ren -

The next day was filled with a mindless hustle. Between packing, moving, and training, there wasn't a single person sitting still except me of course.

I was left to watch it all happen from the bedroom window. Ethan was at the center of the chaos so he couldn't stop to see me as much as I wanted him to.

Only Emily was going to stay behind with me since they needed even Rebecca to help the possibly injured. They would rather spare a nurse than a Rebecca since they were going to need all the help they could get.

She stayed with me in the bedroom packing some clothes for us to go to a separate safe house. I tried to help her but she quickly shooed me away to the chair and just asked me what I wanted to take before putting it my bag.

"What do you think, should we take some baby stuff?"

"Huh?" I was distracted watching some guys outside figure out how to put away a tent.

"I know it's still some time until your due date but I figured it's a good idea just in case junior decides to come out early."

She referred to the small mountain of baby supplies Rebecca had brought from some mothers in the pack who had outgrown them. Baby clothes, towels, bottles, wipe warmers, etc. Still, it was hard to look at it despite the kind gesture.

"....No, I don't think we'll need it." I noticed Ethan come out and send the guys away, folded everything flimsy, and threw it in the van along with two bags he brought outside.

"Yeah, I guess you're right." Emily said.

She continued packing quietly. I couldn't look out the window any longer and went to get up but a loud bang startled me in place.

Loud screams and shuffling followed and I hurried back to the window to see what was going on but Emily pulled me back and down to the floor.

Before I could push her away there was another bang and simultaneously the window shattered.

We stayed still for a heart stopping minute until Ethan burst through the door.

"Are you two alright?!" He asked before picking me up and inspecting for injuries.

"Yes, what happened?!"

"Ian sent one of his minions to hide and attack. Luckily someone caught on but he had a gun. He's down now though."

My body suddenly began trembling and an uncontrollable fire stirred inside me.

"He won't stop...He won't stop until I'm dead...He's going to kill you!" My words poured out of me.

"Ren, it's okay, he was just trying to scare us."

"What if he shot you?! What if he had a bomb?!"

"Calm down, you are just shaken by this."

"Of course I am! I can't stand here and watch as you get killed! It's tearing me up inside!" My voice shook violently and tears began to fall.

Ethan tried to come near me but I stepped back. I didn't want to hear him try to lie to me that everything will be okay.

"This is more dangerous than we thought. They found this in the guy's pocket." Basel came in behind Ethan and handed him a crumpled piece of paper.

Ethan grit his teeth before turning to slam his fist in the wall.

"What is it?" Emily asked.

"It's the address of the safe house you were going to take Ren."

"We have to take Ren with us."

"Are you insane?!"

"He will stay back with Rebecca and Emily. Taking him far away from everyone is only going to put him in more danger."


"What if that's what Ian wants?"

"We will set up precautions. Ren is also too close to his due date to risk leaving him away from Rebecca or I."

Ethan let out a breath of frustration before storming out.

"Get your things ready. I'll have them prepare extra supplies in addition to you two." Basel said before also stepping out.

I couldn't feel my knees and fell onto the ground. Emily leaned down to help me up but I just wanted to stay on the floor and cry.
