Luna On The Run - I Stole The Alphas Son

Chapter 47

Elena

Pulling down the long, obscured road that weaved amongst the trees, nerves kicked in. What would the women think of me just showing up unannounced? I wasn’t even sure if I was welcome here anymore. I kind of just dropped off the face of the earth and left them with no word. Lexa also feels nervous, we escaped Axton, escaped with our babies, yet this was the only place I could think of, and if they turn us away, I wasn’t sure what else to do. This was our only hope.

Parking the car, I sit back in my seat. “Let them come out first. They’ll be wary. Open your door, so they can smell our scent,” Lexa suggests. I see Noleen peer out the window be fore the door opens, and she steps outside. I open my door but don’t make any move to get out of the car, knowing ! could spook her. Noleen approaches and I watch her sniff the air.

“Elena? Is that you?”

“Then why are you sitting in the car?” she says, waving for me to hop out, and I let out a breath of relief before smiling and grabbing the duffle bag off the back seat. I hop out and close the car door. “Where did you get the car?” she calls out.

“Yeah, I kind of stole it,” I sing out, and she stops. She sticks her fingers in her mouth and whistles, and the roller doors start opening. “Well, don’t leave it there, are you trying to get us caught?” she laughs, waving for me to drive into the warehouse.

I chuckle and drive it in, and two of the women pull on the chains, closing the roller door behind me. Noleen points to the far corner, which is empty, and I park it where she tells me to before climbing out of the car. The moment I do, she em braces me in a hug.

and one even brings some tea over. I step back, looking at Noleen. “We were wondering if you got out safe,” she says, smiling sadly. I nod my head, accepting the tea, not realizing how cold my hands
