Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 13

*****Erika's POV*****

"I'm sorry, but it wasn't my fault." He apologized, still keeping his gaze focused on the road.

"How is it not your fault, Jace?! How?!" I growled at him.

"Stop yelling at me, okay? Will you calm down?"

"Don't tell me to calm down, Jace! You abandoned me back there. That was not the plan, I was expecting to see you as soon as I stepped outside of the sacred building of the Moon Goddess, I asked you to wait at the packborders, but I mindlinked you to come over to the sacred building!"

He sighed. "I was waiting there."

"Then why did I not see you waiting there when I was done?" I angrily removed my shoes, throwing them to the back seat without actually looking to see where both shoes had landed.

They were the least of my problem at this moment.

I was angry at myself. Why I had allowed what had happened, to happened?

"It would shock you to know that two of these wheels were deflated."

I sharply turned to face him. "What?!"

"Yes. I left the car to go make a few calls, I didn't notice anything when I returned. I went inside and tried to just drive around the area, the car was moving rather weirdly. I was surprised and came down to understand what was wrong with the car." He paused and swerved, venturing onto another route.

The path of Iron Claw pack. I released the breath I did not know I was holding.

But I was shocked by what Jace was telling me. How could two of the tyres have been deflated the same time?

"After checking the engine and seeing there was nothing wrong there. I stooped to check further and that was when I saw the deflated tyres. I had to find a way to move it out of there and get the tyres changed. That took me a while because I had to employ some helping hands, Me!" He yelled at the last part as he couldn't even imagine himself doing the jobs of guards.
