Longing For My Rejected Luna novel Chapter 112

*****Kat's POV*****

"Are they gone?" I asked Jace the moment he walked back into the room. He gave a nod, saying they had left.

We both wore matching black outfits, just the ones hitmen tended to wear.

"Let's go." He said and turned to walk out of the room. I gulped and called out to him.

He paused, then turned to look at me.

"Yes, what's wrong?" He questioned, taking a step closer and I sighed.

"Are you sure about this?" I suddenly blurted and out and he raised a brow.

"You're feeling reluctant now that the plan's been set in motion?" He asked in surprise and I shook my head slightly.

"It's not that, it's just, what if we don't succeed? I mean why should it be at night?" I asked again, giving him the usual look that always shows up when I get worried about anything.

"Kat, this is when Erika left the house, she left at night. Also, we've already planned all these and we can't just back down now. Don't worry about anything, I'll protect you, alright?" He reassured me and I breathed out.

I guess I have no choice but to agree.

I nodded as he pulled me out of room and straight downstairs. Thankfully, Paula had gone back to the shadowed moon pack with Gage, so the house seemed empty except the guards.

"You all come forward," Jace called for the guards and the maids. They all came running forward and he went ahead to explain.

"We're about to step out fo a while, and we'll be back before the Alpha returns." He said and everyone hummed. "Actually, if the Alpha returns before us, tell her we'll be back In no time, that's all. Got it?" He asked and they all bowed.

"Back to your duties, thank you." The guards and maids went back to their duties as requested and Jace pulled me out of the living room and straight outside.

There were already four guards awaiting us as we emerged.

"You three would take the black car over there and I will take this black one over here, get in." He said, his usual deep voice making my own toes curl.

The guards walked to there own car and got in while Jace pulled me to sit in our own car too.

Once we had settled in, he started the car and drove off Immediately. Whatever we were doing needed to be hurried, Erika and Noir could return at anytime.

We drove through the city, admiring the beauty of Fangoria at night. I was anxious for some reason and felt a bit scared.

I was even fidgeting with my gloves as the car maneuvered the Traffic lights.

The other car followed behind us as we kept going.

Jace knew the place better than us. Though I remembered that it was close to the south side river. We drove for what seemed to be hours and soon, Jace stopped the car.

"Why are we stopping?" I asked confused and he sighed.

"I felt a slight discomfort at my sides, so I paused for a while." I frowned at those words. He wasn't healed up yet and he wanted to go for a rescue mission?

"Are you kidding me?!" I yelled out and he covered his ears.

"I'm sorry, Alright?" He said softly, trying to breath through before he opened his eyes and nodded.

"Jace let's turn around, you need to get to the hospital." I suggested but he glared at me.
