Chapter 0264
“Okay. I’ll go check it out.” I said, smiling at her. She nodded and kept on going around asking if anyone needed drinks. I had to dodge a few kids before I made it to the kitchen.
“…nightmare!” I caught the last part of it.
“What’s wrong?” I asked as I shut the door behind me.
“I don’t think we have enough food for everyone!” Penny looked like she was in tears.
“Okay. What do you have?”
“We have deli meat, some pastas, salads, fruits but I don’t feel like it is enough.” I could hear the concern on her voice.
“Well, remember those women were starved. They aren’t going to eat a lot. Second, there are boxes of mac n cheese on the counter over there. Make that for the kids.” I started looking through the fridge. You have plenty of cheese and tortillas, maybe some people will want a quesadilla. There are some leftover shredded chicken and steak in here. Plus, I’ll call Alec and see where they are at. If he is getting ready to head over, I’ll have him bring some stuff from our house. Okay?”
“Thank you!” Penny looked relieved. The kitchen staff got to work as I took her phone and walked out to the porch.
It rang three times before he answered. “Alpha Alec.”
“Hey, it’s me.”
“Kristen? What number are you calling me from?”
“Penny’s. I have no idea where my phone is.”
“It’s a gift, really.”
“So, what’s going on?” He went back to being serious.

“How soon are you guys coming over?”
“Why? Are you okay?”
“Oh, I’m fine. Happy, really but Penny is freaking out she doesn’t have enough food.”
“Ah, well we were about to head over in a few minutes. I was actually getting ready to shower.”
“Great. Can you bring over all the deli meat we have and anything that can be served easily?” I asked, happy that he wouldn’t be much longer.
“Sure. Have you heard anything on Jasper?”
“Yeah. Surgery went good. They brought him over here and Emmy is with him now. I think he will be just fine.”
“Good.” I heard the shower turn on.
“Hurry over.” I sighed as I sat on the porch swing.
“I will, love. I will.” There will always be this warm fuzzy feeling when he called me love.
“Bye.” I said
“Bye.” Alec hung up and I just rocked back and forth.
“Did you get ahold of him?” Penny said, scaring the life out of me.
“S HIT!” I jumped as she sat down.
“HA! Sorry!” Penny started laughing at me.
“You scared the s hit out of me. Yes, he will be here in about thirty minutes.” Giving her a little push, she settled down next to me.
“I really am glad you are okay.”
“I’m pretty stubborn that way.” I didn’t want to have a heart felt conversation at this moment.
“I should thank you, though.” Penny started laughing a little.
“What? Why?” I was confused.
“You got us out of the school testing again. I have been dreading that.”
I couldn’t contain my laughter. “Seriously?”
“Colt has been stressing about that da mn test and everything else.”
“Why is he stressed over a test? He doesn’t actually need to take it. None of us do.”
