Eric stepped in front of him as he turned to leave and it took more patience then he had at the moment to remind hi ass across the room

"Get out of my way, Eric," he bit out cal a healthy step back, sets back safely, but you need to let us handle this, Ephraihtfall

You have my word," Eric promised

If it was anyone else, anyone else’s child he’d say fk it and let thehter-in-law and a possible grandchild He still couldn’t wrap his mind around that one and probably wouldn’t believe it until he scented it on Izzy, but that didn’tto sit on his ass and wait around

"No deal I’ past Eric only to have the infuriating ers through his hair, looking exhausted, which wasn’t too surprising since everyone had been busted their asses here nonstop for several days It was another reason why he wouldn’t allow that group of Sentinels to go after his son They were exhausted and would be in too et back to Boston to protect their city to keep theirhis children safe

"I didn’t want to have to say this, but I need you here,"

Eric said, dropping his hands by his side and looking like he’d rather be doing anything else, but having this conversation

"Why?" He knew the city was going to shit There’d been over a hundred deaths in the last forty-eight hours De a free-for-all when they weren’t tearing the city apart looking for Isabella and hu in terror in their hoe of the chaos going on in the city Hell, he’d just gotten off a twelve hour patrol in the city and he was fking exhausted, but he had to get his children to safety

"I don’t think I can guarantee the a round the clock, we’re short staffed and there’s no one to call in to help," Eric explained

"As long as they stay in the compound they’re fine, Eric Madison is a Pyte and can tear the throat out of anyone who fks with one of her babies," he said, grabbing a black backpack and filling it with supplies

"Marc won’t go anywhere without her Chris personally trained Jill so I’ a wince from Eric

Chris hadn’t pulled any punches or made it easy on Jill and Madison When they tried to rebel and beg him to teach them instead of Chris he’d flat out refused He kneouldn’t be able to be as fired Eric to come up and train them for a few days Reluctantly he did, but he’d taken it too easy on the women, Jill because she was hu Madison and pissing Ephraim off

After Eric said the hell with it and left, the wo as he pushed theood, really good and everyone knew it There was already talk of hi for this area, but he knew Chris wouldn’t go for it

So anywhere in the world and enjoy his life while he did his duty and the stubborn bastard refused to leave houilt he’d believed for far too fking long He had aa child on the way It was time for Chris to live his own life and allow himself some happiness for once

"I can’t talk you out of this, can I?"

"No," he said, throwing his pack over his shoulder

"We’re heading out now," he said as he headed for the door

"We? Who are you taking?"
