Devin nodded, sharp eyes catching the difference in her as she listened to what Iggy told her. He froze at the news Nina told him, eyes flashing over to the children before back to her. He wrapped his arms more tightly around her as he pressed a kiss into her hair. "We'll figure it out when Iggy gets back tonight. They'll be fine." He assured her. He made sure to keep the tension out of his body, not wanting the others to catch on. They should keep things happy for now.


Sare giggled with a nod. "He is very silly." She agreed. "So is Ian, Adelle's mate." She told her. When she asked about normal, she shook her head. "I can only hear my pack. Packs are combined by our minds. We couldn't read the mind of a different pack, nor can we read the mind of humans. Betta? She can hear everybody. And it's not a normal human thing at all. Human can hear people in their heads." She explained, or at least tried to.

Nina nodded, taking a breath as he kissed the top of her head. "I know....He'll be back soon enough. He's just cooling down right now...They recorded Damon's statement but now the execution has been delayed until tomorrow night so they can confirm the dealer." She rubbed her forehead, but gave her mother a small smile and waved her off. Maybe some alcohol would help....if the thought of it didn't make her sick.

Lily nodded slowly, "Okay...I guess I can understand that..." she said simply, fidgeting a little with the bracelets on her wrist. Finally she sighed, "Sare....when is my uncle coming back? I really want him to see me and Nina...." She admitted, looking down at her lap.

Devin nodded as he tugged her into his lap. "Told you it will work out." He told her as he kissed her cheek. "Is there anything I can get you, beautiful?" He asked, wanting her to be comfortable and happy again. She had been so happier earlier and he wanted to bring that feeling back.


When Lily asked her question, Sare paused. She had to to keep it together. "I don't know, baby girl." She told her. "All he told me was that there was an emergency. I hope he's back soon as well. I'm sure he would love to see you dance." She told her as she hugged her tightly. She knew she was a cruddy liar, but she prayed to the Sheperd that she was believing enough that Lily would think she was telling the truth.

Nina gave him a small smile as he tugged her into his lap, suddenly not caring she was around her more traditional family. She just rested against him with a small shrug, "Honestly? I feel like I need a strong drink but..." She got quiet, playing with the numerous bracelets on her wrists. She let out a sigh and looked up at him with a slightly pained smile, "I'm okay...I just need some time to sort through everything and calm Iggy down..." She said before looking back down at her hands. She felt better, and she knew Devin was there for her, but she couldn't shake the drinking thing. Maybe she just wasn't programmed that way...Cristol had assured her that it wasn't the reason the pregnancy had failed but the slight guilt was still there.

Lily nodded, hesitating for a moment before speaking again, "I know why he's really gone..." She said softly, just resting her head against Sare's shoulder. "I'm not supposed to be able to but..I overheard Uncle Iggy and Bryce..." She mumbled, the happy girl gone for the moment. Her abilities had strengthened incredibly over the past few years, having had to call out to the others more than once when her and her brother were really in trouble. "I just want it to be over..."

Devin began to run his fingers through her hair as he held her, still remembering to keep it clean for her family. He kept to the light touches and chaste kisses. They were her parents after all. He heard the pain in her voice and frowned softly. "Hey... hey its going to be alright, okay? And as for the drink? Just take your time sweetheart." He kissed her cheek softly. "You've already made so much remarkable progress in so little time. Give yourself some credit." He smiled at her.


Sare paused, blinking as she heard Lily's words. Her arms tightened around the little girl as she kissed the top of her head. Everyone was always so brave for her and comforting her that it was time for her to be the brave one. "It's going to be okay Lily. It will all be over soon I promise. You're here with Iggy and me; you and Jeremiah both. We're never going to let anything happen to you." She promised.

Nina gave him a small smile, nodding against his shoulder. "Okay..." she said softly, taking another few moments to collect herself up. She needed to stay positive for the kids. She was also focused on calming her cousin down as Bryce helped her. Finally she nodded again, "They'll be back soon...but they'll have company. Iggy and Kai's old commrads James and Cian will be coming back with them and spending the night at Iggy's with them just in case." She told him, finally seeming to relax a bit. She loved the other two men and James had always been like another big brother to her. She knew the kids would be safe with them there.


Lily just nodded, curling up in Sare's lap and obviously trying not to cry. Her father may have been evil but he was still her dad. She was too young to understand what exactly her father had done to her and her brother, or had planned on doing. She just wanted her uncle back so she could focus on having fun. She really liked Sare but she wasn't Iggy. "You promise?" she mumbled into the wolf girl's shoulder. She heard really bad stories from other kids about mean step moms but Sare wasn't like that.

Devin nodded, having been the only one who hadn't met the two earlier. "Anything to help. Having extra hands around is always good in times like these." He admitted as he kissed her cheek. "So! Tell me about the two I'll be meeting directly? Will I have to fight for my life?" He waggled his eyebrows playfully, trying to lighten the mood. He knew she was trying to help calm Iggy down, but he wanted her to relax more. Tonight was supposed to be one of happiness. He'd do his best to provide that.


Sare just hugged the girl to her tightly, presssing kisses into her hair. "I promise." She told her, voice not wavering. She rubbed her hand up and down her back soothingly, wishing Iggy was here. There was only so much that she could do.She needed Iggy, her uncle. She knew the kind of presence Iggy had and how comforting he was. How many times had he comforted her? More than she could count. So she knew how it would be.

Nina giggled lightly with a shake of her head. "No...Cian is really sweet but he doesn't know much English...." she tried to explain, "He's more like Sheng or Jared. James and Iggy have been friends for years, they enlisted together. He's my version of Ian prior to Adelle....yeah...that's the best way to describe him. They're both really teddy bears...just don't piss them off." She tried to explain with a shrug. Out of their troop, James and Cian were by far the most tame.

She looked up as Iggy and the others arrived, all looking a little worse for wear. Iggy immediately went over to where Sare was with Lily, crouching down behind them as Lily looked up with a relieved smile and practically tackled him. "Lilipad what's wrong?" He asked her, sitting beside Sare on the log. He kissed his fiancée sweetly on the cheek as a silent thank you as Lilly answered him.

"Is he gone now? Please tell me he's gone...." she mumbled into her uncle's shoulder and it broke his heard a bit to hear her.

He debated for a moment before finally setting on the truth, "No...I'm sorry but something came up and he's not." He admitted, kissing the top of her curly hair. "But where he is he can't hurt you or anyone else, okay? I promise you....now come now....where's my smiling girl? And why in the world are you wearing Nina's old jubles?" He asked her, nudging her ankle which jingled and caused her to let out a quiet giggle.


Kai smiled as Bryce went over and plopped himself beside Betta, kissing the side of her head. Kai greeted the two others with a smile but her stomach sank at what they told her. Oh things could never be easy could they? Cian gave Kyler a small smile as he sat down, blinking as the twins were suddenly in front of him asking a million different questions in their native tongue. Kai batted them away with a laugh. "Oi...leave him alone the two of ye...let him rest a moment. Not like you never see him...." she teased as the twins sighed.

"But he has so many cool stories!!" Jayden insisted as Jayce nodded.

"I'll be over in a moment." Cian spoke up then with a small smile, his softer voice thick with his accent. The twins sighed again but nodded, moving over to James then who was currently eating by the table of food. Cian looked over to Kai then with a small shrug, "Them I don't mind...."

Kai let out a small laugh, patting his knee, "I know....but they idolize the two of ye. Well...and their cousin." She mused as she leaned back against Kyler. "But after everything today you all need some rest."

Devin nodded, listening to her explain the two new men that would be showing up with Iggy and Bryce. He made a face as she explained James before chuckling. "Dear Sheperd, we don't need another one!" He exclaimed before grinning and tickling her sides. He looked up as the company arrived, noting the tension in their bodies and the expressions on their face. This obviously wasn't turning out as easy as they expected. He knew how that felt.


Sare looked over as she saw Iggy, smiling gratefully and seeming to relax now that he was back. Her nose inhaled his scent, and she comforted herself with the familiarness of it. She kissed his cheek back as he sat next to her, watching him comfort his niece. She knew how the girl felt; Iggy was such a comforting presence. When he asked about her dancing gear, she smiled as she poked the little girl. "Tell him! You have to now."


Betta looked up and brightened considerably as Bryce joined them, hugging him tightly real quick before pulling back and opting to rest her head on his shoulder. She was glad to see him back, even if they didn't return with good news. She may not be able to read it from Bryce but the other three, and now Kai were swarming with it. It was hard not to read it.

Kyler smiled at the returning men, greeting James and Cian as well as he kept his arm wrapped around Kai. He chuckled silently as the twins suddenly popped up and interrogated and prodded Cian for stories. Boys... they were the same no matter what culture or world they came from. Looking over at his fiancee, he smiled as he kissed her temple. "I'm getting a refill of my drink, want one?" He asked before extending his question over to Cian as well.

((Omg....Naughty Cow chocolate liquor.....dangerously good....lmao))

Nina giggled as he tickled her, swatting at his hands. "Devin Sterling!" She scolded through her laughter. He was too much sometimes for her to deal with. She kissed the side of his head playfully but chastely. She didn't need her parents ragging on her for anything tonight. As much as she loved being here it was the first night she'd really felt well enough to be kind of silly and playful. In that way she missed more of the freedom they'd have on Earth. "And Ian and James are funny....not bad...."

Lily blushed lightly as she finally pulled back, starting to calm down a little. "Nina and I are gonna dance for everyone...." she told him with a shy smile, giggling a bit at the face her uncle made.

"And ye were going to keep that from me?!" He asked with a joking gasp as she giggled harder.

"Nooo....I wanted to wait till you came back!" She insisted, finally her smile reaching her eyes as she looked back to Sare. "Do you think everyone is done yet??" She asked, fidgeting a little.

"Yeah....lumfre? It looks like champagne. Promise there's no alcohol." Kai told him with a light chuckle, kissing his cheek. "Junte." Cian nodded, but gave his order to Kai so she could interpret it for her fiancée. "He wants a glass of firewhiskey with ice. If there is a small fruit...looks like an orange. Grab one of them? He'll do the rest."
