SIDE STORIES BOOK 1- CARTER AND EMMALEE CHAPTER 9

~~

Carter

~~

I was on a mission across the country when I got a call from home. It was a video chat and I wasn't really expecting it.

"Hey Trinity, what's up." I smiled at her as happily as I could trying to drown my sorrow in false happiness.

"How've you been Carter? Are you taking care of yourself?" I could have been honest and told her I was pining over my lost mate and I was working myself to death to deal with my heart ache. I had been looking for the missing warlock, her father who had gotten away. I seemed to be the only one overly worried about him right now.

"Hmph. I can always take care of myself, it's you I've got to worry about." I laughed and smiled playfully at her.

"Rude." She snapped at me sarcastically.

"So what's up? You never call me when I'm out like this." I was worried that something else had happened, that something was wrong.
