Chapter 320

**Josie's POV **

"This is breaking my heart. There are more kids here just like Bella. We have to help them. They need families now, today. They've already been through enough in their short lives without being left in a military base infirmary," I say into the mind link to my bonds.

"I'll check where we are on the list of people willing to take a child in," Deacon says.

"If the list is exhausted, then maybe we could ask if some would be willing to take more than one. We could also ask families with children of similar ages to take a child in, I suggest.

"Starting with us? We are bringing this girl home, right?" Axel asks.

I look at Axe, my big hulk of a guy down on his knees, letting Bella climb up on his shoulders with Mason's help. He's right, if we are going to ask other families to take on the responsibility of a child, then we should lead by example, even though we have more kids than any other bond group.

says.

"Bella belongs with us. I don't know why I feel that way, but I do," Mason nods.

"I feel it too," Axe agrees.

"I do feel a connection to her, but we should discuss it with Luke, Theo and the kids first," I say.

"Then let's take her to meet them. If a family has been found for her before we make a decision, then so be it, but I think everyone will accept her," Deacon suggests.
