Houston, we have ignition.
Dewi hadn’t thought it would take that long for Nami to grok what they were saying. She’d expected they would have already been in the fallout phase by now.
Dewi also suspected that, now that Nami understood, she was about to light the world brighter than any NASA rocket night launch.
Absolutely, Dewi did not want to have to lay hands on Nami to hold her back. She counted on Beck being able to handle his mate and keep her restrained. But she’d do what she had to do to protect everyone, Nami included.
Beck latched onto Nami’s arm as she headed for the door, slowing her down enough so the other four could get outside.
But she wasn’t stopping. Like a force of nature, an iceberg sped up to fast-forward, she was determined to follow the others.
“Girl, you better git yourself back here, right now, and talk to me! Don’t you be walkin’ away from me when I’m talkin’ to you!”
Dewi noticed Nami’s southern accent deepened the more stressed she became. Which was pretty amazing to witness in some ways, because Dewi hadn’t thought Nami could ever be rattled. By anything.
During the whole wedding planning process, Nami had kept her cool while Dewi groused and growled and grumbled. The woman was an experienced county bus driver, used to dealing with unruly passengers and rush hour traffic and temperamental Florida weather, not to mention raising three younger siblings.
When Malyah and Joaquin didn’t stop, Nami pretty much dragged Beck out through the front door after them, Beck barely doing more than slowing her down enough to keep her from catching up with the four before they got in Jack’s car and pulled away.
The rest of them stopped just inside the front door, watching, as Nami started screaming, raging against Malyah and Joaquin, for them to get back there and talk to her, even as the dust began to settle in the wake of Jack’s car.
Dewi felt badly for her friend, but knew the only way through it for her was to get through it. Malyah was an adult, and Joaquin hadn’t forced her. They had a legitimate mate bond.
Peyton finally headed out to talk to them, not touching Nami, Beck barely able to keep his arms around her to keep her from running down the road and chasing after her sister. While Dewi couldn’t hear all of Peyton’s words, Dewi guessed he was telling Nami the story of what had happened, as related to him by Joaquin and Malyah.
Maybe it was better coming from Peyton than from the newly mated couple. He was used to being the lightning rod in situations like this, dealing with human kin. Finally, Nami seemed to be listening to him, but Dewi knew Peyton wasn’t using Prime on her. He wouldn’t, not without Beck okaying it first, not unless the pack or Nami were in jeopardy.
And from the way Nami was still fighting, struggling against Beck, Dewi knew Peyton hadn’t. Otherwise, she would have calmed and acted compliant.
