Chapter Fifty-Four: One Last Battle

We stood just on the outskirts of Boozers, waiting for the rest of our party to arrive. I'd opted to change out of my hooded jumper and leggings. Instead, I wore a tight-fitting black tee with a jacket over it, combat boots and jeans. Nearly every part of my body hid the weapon of my choice. Knives.

Isaac stood next to me, gripping my hand in a firm hold. He'd also changed and God, did I love what he had on now. Black leather pants with kick-arse boots and a long-sleeved black shirt. His skin looked paler against all the black. He had no weapons on him. He was a weapon enough himself.

Leaves rustled behind us and out stepped my uncle, Ty, and their team. I walked over to them and hugged Penny, Ty, and Jack.

"Thanks for coming."

"It's what we do, kid." He ruffled my hair as if I were ten. "So, you're Isaac's trouble now. Finally outta my hair."
