To protect what's mine (Amalie) novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171 Amalle

The next few weeks hy by in a blur and the Fourth of July is tomorrow. I have been on edge, expecting an attack from Francesca to happen at any moment. But there is nothing. Nothing happens. No rogue attacks. No more members disappear. The medalion talk… sleep peacefully. It’s strange and has me on edge. I keep waiting for something to happen.

“Ya okay suga?” Michelle asks from where she is cutting fruit for tomorrow.

“I’m fine,” I bite back a little to sharply. I take a deep breath and focus on mixing the jello to pour over the cake,

“You don’t have to be okay,” Kim says as she comes to stand next to me.

“I know,” I sigh as I pour the jello over the cake. I offer her a small smile to show that I am okay for the moment.

“Okay, I need help setting up the fireworks!” James shouts as he storms into the kitchen. He is a whirlwind of energy.

The room freezes and stares at him, or more accurately James glares at the Beta.

“Right, Sam, I need your help,” James says sheepishly.

“I’m watching Amalie right now,” he sighs as he snags a few strawberries.

“Well, she’s perfectly safe right now in the kitchen with Michelle and Kim and the others helping,” James tries to persuade my Gamma.

“Did you even ask the twins if you could steal him?” I ask as I start to frost the cake with whipped cream.

“Yes, of course,” he says.

We all turn and give him a raised eyebrow at his lie. This seems to be enough to get James to crack.

“Maybe I forgot,” James says as he scratches the back of his neck. “I’ll go ask them now.”

I can’t help but laugh at the Beta’s antics. Sam does not derive the same amusement as he is grumbling under his breath about the Beta. I finish with the cake, and I wrap with with cling wrap to protect it for tomorrow. As I set the cake in the fridge, I hear James come back to the kitchen.

“Momma!” Rose says as she runs into the kitchen.

“Hi honey,” I say as I pick her up and place her on my hip.

“Darling, we’re going to go set up for tomorrow,” Mark says as he places a kiss on my lips.

“Vickie and Kira are on their way as we’re taking Sam with us,” Cal tells me as he kisses me next.

I see Sam nod his head as he hops off the counter he had been sitting on. I can hear other voices outside of the kitchen. Some warriors must have been waiting on the twins and Sam. The males leave the kitchen to go prepare for the celebration tomorrow

“Be careful and have fun,” I call after them. I get waves and ‘we will‘ shouted back as they leave from more than my mates, Cam

members.

Chapter 171 Amalie

I walk to where the Gamma had been and set Rose on the counter. I grab a bowl and place some blueberries in it and hand it to Rose. Rose gives me a smile as she starts eating her snack. She starts to hum and swing her feet back and forth.

“Okay, what’s next?” I ask as I look around.

“Buncha pups,” Michelle laughs with a shake of her head. She walks over to Rose and plops a few strawberries in the bowl.

“Okay peeps! Let’s pre–party!” Vickie shouts as she bounds into the kitchen.

“Victoria Allenton, I have warned ya about causin trouble in my kitchen,” Michelle scolds sharply.

“Auntie in trouble,” Rose laughs.

“Come on, I brought a Bluetooth speaker to play music and everything,” Vickie pouts as she pulls out a speaker. She walks over to the main island and sets down the speaker. She then makes her way to Rose and pulls out her phone. “Okay little flower, we’re picking the music,” she says as she hops up onto the counter.

Michelle rolls her eyes but does not shoo the warrior out of the kitchen.

I glance back at my best friend and pup. Rose uses her little finger to scroll on the phone. I hate the little touch phones. They have advanced too much in the time I went without one. But Rose is absolutely fascinated by the device. Rose has been playing on anyone’s phone that will let the soon to be four–year–old play on it.

“Oohh, that one,” Vickie says excitedly.

Rose presses her finger to the screen and music begins to fill the kitchen. Several of the other Omegas smile at the music. Soon laughter and dancing fill the kitchen as we prepare the food for tomorrow.

I laugh as Rose slides off the counter and starts to dance around the room. Kim stops what she is doing to be able to spin Rose a few times. Rose continues to spin as she goes to another Omega.

Rebekah, I believe her name is, sets down her knife and starts dancing with Rose. Rose happily dances with the Omega for a few moments before she is off to dance with someone else. She is happily dancing with everyone.

Vickie hops down off the counter. She snags my hand and spins me around the kitchen. I let out laugh as I start dancing with my friend. Vickie lets out a laugh as she sends me spinning into Kira, who just enters the kitchen.

Kira let’s out a squawk of surprise as I crash into her. The pair of us go sprawling across the floor in a heap as Vickie stands over us, laughing her head off.
