Rescue Mission II

Storm paced wildly around her sitting room, her heart down her stomach as she contemplated how much longer she had to wait before Kaden and the others would return from the raid with Justin and Lucy. 

After she had opened the gate with its lock, Kaden had ordered Jutul to take her back home. She had been angry and bittered, but she was outnumbered too, and so she had followed Jutul, through another route so that they wouldn't be caught in a crossfire. 

On their way home, she had heard the guns firing for the millionth time, and for each time, she had jerked on the car's seat, unable to help herself. 

Perhaps, it was nice that she had returned home. Yet, she didn't like this edgy feeling. Hadn't it been three hours already? She enthused, her eyes wandering to the clock. When would they be back? 

She fell back to the sofa, her feet beating a haphazard rhythm on the floor, her patience already worn thin.
