Tattooed Luna by Mrs Smith

Chapter 0582 I was stuck standing on the porch steps as Echo carried my child inside and she didn’t even cry out for me. Kristen was limping in behind her, loving every second of this and my heart was broken. “Damn.” “Rejected by a six month old baby.” Jace stood beside me and laughed.

“Kiss my ass.” Grumbling, I walked passed a very amused Jace and into his pack house. It was decorated in old stone with wooden floors that look to be original but parts were still an old brick. It was like a blast in the past the way they refinished the woodworking but it was elegant. If anything happened to this building, it would be history that couldn’t be replaced.

“I’ll put your bags down in your room.” Jace headed up the stairs.

Following him up, the girls went into another room. “I'll come with you.” “Echo has a late lunch for everyone in the sunroom. We can head there after.” “It’s been ages since I’ve been here.” Even though Jace was closer to Colt, I still had great memories here. “I remember someone pushing me down the stairs.

“That feels like a life time ago.” Jace smirked as we reached the fourth floor.

“It really does. I think the last time I saw everyone before we all did our own things was like when we were ten.”

“Sounds about right. Lars will be here any minute.” Jace stood to the side so I could watch him unlock our room.

Pushing the door open, he had provided us with a suite. There was a livingroom with a separate kitchen and bathroom and two bedrooms. “I figured you guys would be more comfortable in this room. Colt and Penny are directly across the hallin a similar room. The staff should have brough up cribs for the kiddos but if you guys need anything else, let me know.” “I’m sure everything will be just fine.” By the amount that Kristen wanted me to bring, we should have everything under the sun already.

Jace’s stomach started rumbling. “I'm going to head down, Come down when your ready.”

Dropping what was in my hands, I was ready to eat as well. “I'm ready. I'll organize this later. It wouldn’t matter how I did it anyway, Kristen will change it.” Walking out, I shut the door and locked it.

“That’s the truth.” Jace nodded.

“I never did tell you I'm sorry I coudn’t make Echo’s luna ceremony.” It was before I even met Kristen and I was in training but I still felt bad. Dad had me do extra training that the others didn’t do because I needed to be the best.

“It’s all good. Your dad still came.” We were reaching the ground floor and the sounds of squeezing babies were hitting our ears. “Echo is wanting to accomplish a few things before I have I that to listen to.” &»

“Blessing and a curse.” 1 laughed There wasn’t anything like listening to your child laughing but the cries were rough at times.

“Someday.” “There you guys are! We are waiting and I am starving!” Echo smiled warmly at me but glared at Jace.

“Well, when you travel with your entire house, it needs to be put down.” I defended Jace. Sitting beside Kristen, Adalynn was bouncing in her lap. To my pleasure, Adalynn reached for me and sat perfectly still on me.

“On the menu is Elk steaks with potatoes and steamed veggies. Hope you enjoy!” Echo clapped her hands and the doors instantly opened. The staff brought plates of sizzling steaks out to us.

“Starting without us?” Lars’s voice echoed behind us.

“I didn’t think you were going to make it in time!” Jace stood up and shook his hand. I was going to follow but Lars waved us off.

“I think we made it just in time!” Emily smiled as she moved around. She was seated next to Penny and Lars sat next to Colt. Their babies were on a blanket next to the wall but out of the walkway.

“We have a high chair for Miss ~ Adalynn if she would like?” Echo asked me.

“sure. That would be great.” Right on cue, a staff member brought out a wooden highchair. After putting Adalynn in it, they buckled her in and

brought out a plate of cut bananas, carrots and pieces of finely chopped steak. Adalynn didn’t waste a second before picking up a steak, examining it and than ate it. After a few chews, she grabbed a handful and shoved the rest into her mouth.

The table busted up laughing. “That’s my girl.” I laughed along with them.

“This all looks amazing!” Penny smiled at Echo.

“I’m glad you like it. have arranged for the kids to take naps after lunch and someone will watch them or you are welcome to bring them but I have to show you guys around! I've been really working on preserving this castle and I want to show it off to someone who will enjoy the beauty.”

Echo beamed at Penny and Kristen “1 appreciate the natural beauty.” Jace rolled his eyes.

“Okay.” Echo use a mockery tone but took a bite.

“There is whiskey and a fireplace for us to hang out after so we can discuss what we are doing moving forward.” Jace ignored Echo.

“That sounds like a room I want to visit.” Lars took a large bite and nodded at Jace.

“There is a large Elk head hanging on the wall.” Echo shook her head at Lars.

“It is a prize.” Jace smiled back at her.

I just tuned everyone out as I finished

eating. Listening to their bickering was fun for awhile but it got old. If I could live in the mountains, I would. It’s just a deep innate feeling to want to live in a forest.

“What are you thinking about?” Kristen interrupted my thoughts.

Responding back in the mind-link, “how much I love being in the forest.” I said.
