The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 9

8 - Kennedy

I’m groggy but I can tell Jeremiah is holding me, my head is tucked into his massive hard chest. Another breath, another hand squeeze. I look over and Rayna, sitting next to Jer, is looking at me with sympathy and I can feel the tears prick behind my eyes. I try to blink them away, but it’s no use. They fall in slow streams from my eyes. I squeeze them shut trying to stem the flow.

“Hey, don’t fight it. Let the sadness go. It will help.” Her voice is so soothing, but I let the tears just flow.

“It doesn’t make it any less embarrassing.” I sniffle and pull my hands from hers to rub them over my face.

“There’s something that makes sense.” I look over and see Ben at the foot of my bed. Even better. “What happened this time? Was there something different about your dream? You yelled for all of us.” He points and I see Tommy and Jason too. “You’ve never done that before.”

“Huh? I don’t know. I don’t really remember.” I lied and closed my eyes again but opened them back up quickly, the image of their dead eyes and bleeding forms is still burned in the back of my eyelids. “Jer, are you sure you want me on this trip? I can’t imagine it’s going to make any kind of good impression on your in-laws to have you running into my room in the middle of the night. I’m a liability that no one will want around.”

I lean away from him when I realize I’m in his lap still curled up with his mate right next to us. I slide to sit next to him bringing my knees to my chest, a massive headache starting.

“With mom gone, absolutely, no question you need to be with me.” I just look at him for a second disbelieving and roll my eyes, then move to get off my bed. “Where are you going?” He shoots up next to me.
