Chapter Seven

Jade strolled back outside. Her four youngest ones followed close behind, pointing at all the people around them. They walked towards the food buffet. Her neighbors had already lined up under the tent for the buffet when she got there. Many of them laughed and talked as they waited.

“When you throw a party, you throw a party! I didn’t realize that there was so many here last night,” Caer said behind her.

“Actually, this is the first party I’ve had in a while.” Jade smiled at Caer.

“Why don’t I take the little ones over to where they are setting up for the games today? You can get the things done and meet us over there.” Caer stood next to her, holding onto both her little girls’ hands.

“Do you really think you can handle all four of them? I mean, they can be a handful.” Jade smiled down at her little girls, keeping a close eye on the boys.

“We’ll be fine. Morrigan is going to help, along with Aengus.”

“That would help a lot. I have to go feed the other animals after I’m done here. Give me a half hour, and I’ll meet you over at the games.” She looked up at her boys. “Cory, Drew, do you want to go over to where they’re setting up for the games with Caer?”

Both Jade and Caer laughed when all four jumped up and down and yelled. “Well, I guess I’ll see you in a bit. You four be good and listen to Caer?” Jade patted Cory and Drew’s head and left to find the caterer.

Half an hour later, Jade finally managed to get to the barn to feed the horses and let them out into the pasture. The horses bucked and ran around. She loved to watch the horses gallop. It was so peaceful.

A large, stinky hand clamped over her mouth and another clutched her waist, pulling her off the fence. She kicked back at her attacker, but another pair of hands held her foot, and a third set wrapped a blind-fold over her eyes.

Jade bucked, moving anyway she could to get away from her attackers, but a sudden sharp pain to the head stopped her struggles.

Dagda paced back and forth, watching the four little ones bobbing for apples when an unannounced disturbance hit him. His gut wrenched. Jade, are you okay?

His eyes scanned the people, and he reappeared at the last place he knew she had been. He couldn’t feel her presence anymore. I should have never left her alone!

Aengus! I need your help. Meet me at the barn. Something is wrong with Jade!

A torn piece of material from her shirt lay on the ground. Her scent lingered in the air, but it grew weaker. He scanned the area when his son appeared next to him.

“Humans. Three men have taken her. I didn’t think about humans taking her! I promised her I would protect her! Their footprints and stench lead this way.” Dagda punched the side of the barn while searching.
