Chapter 138

“Daddy!” Thomas was awestruck as Noah scaled down the rope-ladder.

His Daddy navigated an airship to rescue them. That was the coolest thing ever!

Like a superhero!

His daddy was a superhero!

Cheering in his mind, Thomas took quick paces toward Noah.

Noah leaned forward to pick Thomas up before holding the rope-ladder still for Madeline to glide down.

“Good boy. Mommy and Daddy are here to pick you up.”

“Mommy’s here too?!”

“Brat! Don’t you want me to come for you?”

Madeline hopped off the rope-ladder. She was not having it that Thomas made himself comfortable in Noah’s arm.

It was not that she was angry. Jealousy played the most part.

“Not at all. Lil’ Brother and I have been waiting for you both to get us.”

Uh oh. Mommy was jealous because Thomas was too quick to get cuddles from Daddy.

Thomas decided to reel in an alliance to ease the tension in the air.

“Lil’ Brother, Mommy and Daddy are here to take us home.”

Thomas shouted into the cave.

With Thomas’ words stirring all kinds of emotions in Noah, the latter quickened his pace into the cave.

One step ahead of Noah, Madeline approached Colt and examined his injuries. Colt had been through a lot as it was.

Although Albert reported that all was good with Colt, Madeline had to examine him with her own eyes to be sure.

“Colt, do you feel aches or pains anywhere? You must let me know if you don’t feel well.” Madeline patiently checked out Colt’s injuries. She still needed to ask even though Colt was given the all-clear.

Madeline’s concern made Colt feel loved. He put his hand on hers and gave a pat to offer assurance.
