Chapter 51: Setting Up

We sit and rest for a few minutes. Then, Levi joins us, sitting on the ground beside me.

"So, how was the shopping trip?" Levi asked. I looked at him with a duh look.

"It was nice. I think we got everything that we needed." mom speaks up with a smile on her face.

"It was exhausting," I tell him in our mind link. I was drained from all the shopping. Levi smiled at me, but it was almost a smirk.

"How did everything here go?" I asked so everyone could hear.

"There is around a hundred fifty of the rogues on the border. We got them tents and are building temporary shelter areas now. I came back to get some things but figured I would take a little break with you." he says, bumping my shoulder. I smile, and then I recall what he said.

"There are really that many of them?" I asked him. He nods at me, and I let it soak in.

"I guess it is a good thing we got all those blankets," Emma says as she laughs.

"Well, I got to get the stuff they need and get back. I will see you in a little while." Levi says as he kisses my cheek and stands.

"We will be there with this stuff soon," I tell him as he goes to walk away.

"We need to get something to put everything in so that we can take it all at one time," Mia tells us, looking drained. Everyone shakes their head in agreement.

"I will go find you all something to put the stuff in," Rod says, laughing at us. I am so tired I didn't even see him walk up. Emma must not have either cause she looked surprised and excited at the same time. Finally, he comes back with two people helping carry a huge box.

"Where did you even find that box? It's huge." I say in shock. The box is big enough for everything and us, I think.

"It's my secret," Rod says, and I hear Emma giggle, so I can only imagine where this thing came from. Him and the guys sit the box down and head back toward the house. Now we have to put all the stuff in the box. Finally, we get everything set in the box and ready to be moved if we were not exhausted before we are now.

"Let's get all this to the people so I can crash in my bed. I need sleep." I tell them as I walk to the box. All the girls step up and put their hands on me as I put my hands on the box.

We pop up in the rogue camp, and I hear a couple of people gasp. I look around, noticing that I must have scared a couple of them popping up like that.

"I am sorry I didn't mean to scare you," I say, looking around at the people. They all just smile at me. I look around to see if I see Bastien or the guys anywhere. Then someone grabs my sides and picks me up. I scream out, then I feel the sparks, and I know it's Luca. I laugh and swat at his hands.

"Put me down," I say with a laugh cause he is tickling me where his hands are. He laughs and sets me down. I turn and wrap my hands around his neck and kiss him. He returns the kiss taking my mouth with a ferocity that I did not expect but love. I hear mom clear her throat, and it brings me back to reality. We both pull away, and I know my face is blushing. Luca pinches my rear and laughs as I jump, not expecting it. The girls all laugh at me, and I give them a stern look before I start to laugh.

"This is a lot of stuff," Bastien says as he and Kane walk up to us.

"We got a little of everything we could think of that they may need." My mom says as Bastien wraps his arm around her waist, pulling her to him.

"We are grateful for everything, Luna," Kane says as he gives a nod to mom before looking at me. "And thank you for everything, Queen." I blush, not being used to anyone calling me Queen.

"Your welcome. I hope that you are able to use everything we got." I say and motion to the box. I notice that he is looking at Mia, and his eyes are shifting back and forth like he is going back and forth with his wolf. I look at Mia and see that she is looking at him, but she keeps looking back at the ground. I will have to see what that is all about later. Kane finally looks back at me,

"umm... Yes, I am sure we will be able to use it all." He says, looking back at Mia again. Bastien clears his throat.

"Ok, let's get this stuff brought over and passed around to everyone," Bastien says to Kane getting his attention.

"We can help with that," Emma says, moving toward the box. We all go and start taking things out of the giant box.

"How about we set up stations and people can come to get the things they need. They can then let us know what they need that we don't have here." Mom tells us, and that seems like a great idea to me.

"I will be right back. Don't move," I tell them before flashing back to the house. I go to the large tables we have for outside, put my hands on three of them, and back to the clearing I go.

"That is a fast way to get tables," Emma says, and we all bust out laughing. We get everything set on the tables it goes on. We were going to do clothes, blankets, and food, but we had so much food we just kept the blankets in the box and grabbed them for the people that needed them. We had spent about an hour meeting people and giving them supplies. I was exhausted, and it was dark already. I just wanted a nice long hot bath and my bed.

"You ready to head home?" Levi asked next to my ear, sending a chill down my spine.

"Yes, I am exhausted and ready for a bath," I say, looking at him with my best help me face. He laughs at me before cupping my face and placing a soft kiss on my lips. I lean in, wanting his touch. A scream rips through the woods, taking everyone's attention. Levi pulls me into him, and I see Bastien headed for mom. I then feel Luca on the other side of me. We are all looking, trying to find where the scream came from. We all hear a rustling coming from our right and turn to see what is headed our way. We are all shocked when we see a young girl running toward us.

She looks like she is maybe twelve. She has long black hair that is flowing behind her as she runs toward us. Kane steps out in front of us, catching her as she runs into his arms. I notice she has blood on her pants. She is out of breath and crying.

"Tell me what happened. What is wrong with you, Abby." Kane says to her.

"I need your help, brother. I am dying." She tells him, and we all gasp.
