“It’s definitely a work in progress,” Sierra shrugged with a smile.
“Can we just watch the movie?” Jaxson groaned. “We’ve missed about fifteen minutes of it.”
“Are you sure you don’t need to turn in your man card? You’re enjoying these movies too much,” Jemmy teased.
Jaxson shot her a look. “I assure you, I am confident enough in my masculinity to admit I like a good romance every now and then.”
I laughed as I kissed him once more. “I, for one, would like to know what’s going on,” as Dawn and Rachel opened their mouths I quickly added. “For the movie, not the man!”
They all laughed at me and I rolled my eyes.

“I’m not sure about this,” I muttered as I smoothed down the black dress I had borrowed from Rachel.
We had turned girl’s day into girl’s night. Dawn ‘knew’ someone and they were delivering us wine, lobster, and steaks. Drake didn’t know what the complete plan was but after Jemmy asked him to cook for us, he was game. Dawn and Jemmy had told Ford and Gavin to meet us here at six for dinner.
“I am,” Jemmy smiled as she slipped on her red dress. It was just as form fitting and short as mine.
“Is Gavin on his way?” I asked as I looked at myself in the full-length mirror in the girl’s room.
I was wearing a dress that I would be unable to bend over in and it hugged me like a second skin. The dress had no straps and clung to my breasts. I felt I was completely out of my comfort zone, but even I could see that this dress looked great on me.
I slipped on a pair of boots that zipped up to my thighs. I had to wait for Gavin to get here so he can mimic my healing ability and heal my contusions. I had put on makeup, but it only partially covered my bruising.
“He said he was,” Sierra said as she slipped into her own little black dress.
As if on cue, there was a knock on the door. Dawn opened it in her white dress that made her tan skin glow. I was expecting to see Gavin on the other side, instead it was Will, Micah, and Alex.
Alex and Micah looked worried and withdrawn. Will stopped short as he saw how made up we all were. “I’m sorry to interrupt whatever you girls had planned but Kade’s reached out to Alex, and we need to extract him right now.”
“What’s wrong?” I asked as I embraced Alex. Kade had been on my mind a lot lately. I was wondering where or how my brother was.
“Horatio is getting ready to move again, and he suspects that Kade has been helping us,” Will stated brusquely. “The boys should be here any minute, and then you’re leaving with Micah. Sierra, can you go with them?”
“I want to go, too,” Jemmy commented as she put her red lip gloss down.
“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Will shook his head. “The less people we can take in, the better. We have no clue what they’ll be walking into.”
Gavin came in, followed by Jaxson, Drake, Remy, Jace, Troy, and Noah. They we
re all dressed in their combat gear. I looked down at my clothing.
“You don’t have time to change,” Will grimaced as if he could read my thoughts. “Kade managed to slip off, but he doesn’t know how much longer he can stay hidden and unmissed.”
I sighed. “Okay let’s do this,” I looked over at Micah. “Are you ready?”
Micah nodded and grasped Sierra’s hand.
“I need to go, too,” Alex stated resolutely.
“Buddy-” Jaxson started to say slowly.
“Ella says he needs to go,” Will said with a frown. I could tell he didn’t like the idea either.
“Okay, let’s do this then,” Remy stated as he took Micah’s other arm. “Are you prepared to do this? This is the most you’ve ever taken.”
“We can do it,” Sierra stated resolutely.
