CHAPTER 25
Nellie
I followed the directions to Veraâs house that afternoon and pulled up at a massive house after going through two different gates with security at both of them. I was just climbing out of Beatrix when Waylan came sprinting toward me.
âMom!â
I caught her in my arms and spun her around, loving the weight of her against me. I held her tight. âWay. Iâve missed you, baby.â
She let me hold her for another few seconds and then squirmed to get down. âItâs only been a night, silly. I missed you, too. But guess what! Reed taught me to shoot!â
My head snapped up to glare at the man in question. Standing next to my sister, he took a step back and held up his hands. âWhoa, momma bear. I taught her to shoot a BB gun and only after I made her sign a contract and take a safety course.â
âYou made my daughter sign a contract?â
He winced. âYes. It says she would be responsible and never aim at anyone she wasnât prepared to shoot.â
âNever aim at anyone she wasnât prepared to shoot?â My blood was rushing through my body, my fury growing with each additional word he spoke.
âShit.â Reed looked at Vera. âHelp me out here.â
She just grinned. âNo way. Iâve never seen you look so scared before. This is great. I didnât know anything would scare you, short of me getting shot.â
I watched as the man shifted from nervous to furious. He crossed his arms over his chest and looked around, suddenly on guard. âDonât even say those words, Vera.â
My sister rolled her eyes and reached out to take my hand. âCome on. I donât have it in me to listen to a lecture about safety right now. Iâll let you bitch him out later for letting Way shoot.â
Waylan huffed after us. âI like shooting. Iâm good at it, Mom. I can protect you.â
I stopped short and had to catch her when she ran into the back of my legs. âBaby, I donât need you to protect me. Iâm safe. Okay?â
She crossed her arms over her chest. âReed keeps people safe for a living. Iâm going to do that when Iâm grown. Youâre my first customer, Mom.â
I scowled at Reed once more. âI hope I like the other two better.â
Vera dragged me inside. âSit with me while Waylan continues to get Reed in trouble. I love this.â
Reed sighed. âI was going to teach her some self-defense moves. Everyone should know how to protect themselves.â
The idea of Waylan not being able to fight someone off sent a chill down my spine. She was tough and sheâd learned a few things from Blade but Reed had kept my sister from dying. That automatically made me trust his skills. âFine.â
Waylan jumped in the air and fist pumped. âYes!â
Vera led me to a low couch she kind of just fell into, her belly making it difficult for her. âI donât know how you managed this alone. I practically need a crane to get off this stupid couch.
