Chapter 176

Chapter 0176 “Nothing. Just keep going.” I said as we all floored it. Even with the alternate route, we made it back in two hours. No rogue attack but our nerves were shot.

“Why don’t you girls get changed and meet us in the office.” Jasper k*ssed Emmy’s forehead.

“Okay.” Emmy said as she ran up the stairs.

“You better send warriors to scout out the route to make sure it is safe for humans.” I told Alec.

“Already on it.” He nodded as he went into his office. Heading towards the bedroom, I heard some crying.

Slowly, turning the corner, I saw Emmy on the ground.

“Emmy? What is wrong?” I asked as I kneeled down.

“I’m sorry, my hormones are all over the place. I usually am this badas s girl and lately I don’t even recognize myself.”

“Honey, your pregnant. It’s okay. These things happen.” Grabbing her shoulders, I helped her stand and walked her to her room.

She opened the door for us. Slowly, we walked to her bed so she could sit down.

“I hate that I can’t be the person you need me to be right now.”

“I don’t need you to be anyone but you. You need to focus on your baby and it’s not healthy for you to stress this much while being pregnant. Maybe you need to take a few days off?”

“You would be okay with that?” She looked at me confused.

“Why wouldn’t I be?”

“Jasper thought we needed to all be present and accounted for but we were hoping...” she trailed off.

“Just spit it out.” I smiled at her.

“That I could cut down to part time? With the baby and my hormones... and now this stress.” Emmy shook her head. “I need to get my emotions in check.”

1 agree with that but of course you can take some time off. We will still need Jasper but you can stay in bed. Hell, you can work from your bed for all that I care. I just want this baby to be healthy.”

“I love you.” Emmy said as she dried her eyes. Wrapping her arms around me, she held me tightly.

“I love you too. You’re like a sister to me. I’d do anything for you.”

“Will you wear the pink bat you wear the pink bathing suit?” Emmy joked.

“You’re funny.” I laughed as I pulled away form her. Going to her closet, I grabbed her the skimpiest one she had. “Wear this. I am going to go change and I’ll come back and get you.”

“Okay, I’ll be here.”

Walking out of her room and up the stairs, I was able to make it to my room as Alec had walked through the door. “Hey.” I said jumping up behind him.

“Why are you just getting here?” He asked shutting the door behind me.

“Emmy had a breakdown. She wanted to ask us if she could take her workload down some. Work part time.” I said as I went to the closet and pulled out my black suit.

“And you said?” Alec pulled off his shirt.

“That it was okay but Jasper was still needed and if she wanted to work from her bed she could.”

Alec nodded as he pulled out his swim trunks. “I agree with that.”

nv sult.

“Any word on the rogues?” I asked as I started pulling off my clothes to get on my “Not yet. Still looking around.

Frowning, “Do you think I overreacted?”

“Not even a little.” Alec grabbed two beach towels as I put on my cover.

“Okay.” Alec slapped my a ss as I put on my fl*p flops..

“Ready?” I asked.

“Yeah, let’s go.” Alec said as he opened the door for me. We walked down to Jasper’s and Emmy’s room.

Knocking on the door, Emmy answered with a smile.

“Hey, ready to go?”

“We are.”

“I had the carts pulled around.” Alec said as they walked out.

“Perfect.” Jasper took Emmy’s hand and we walked down the stairs and to the golf cart that was waiting out front. It had four seats in it so we got up front and Emmy and Jasper sat in the back. Alec drove into the woods and to the pond we visited once before.
