Chapter 30: The Ambush

Alanis 

I jump up in the middle of the night to the sounds of howling. Upon realization, I look to my left and Beau is sleeping soundly. He seems to be more at ease in his house than at mine. I am glad that he can get this needed sleep. He has been through so much in the past couple of days. 

Everything that has happened this week has been so overwhelming. he has been through so much that I am surprised he is even able to smile. 

I get up from the bed and walk over to the large window, the moon reveals itself in the night sky. It is almost full. We are going to have to talk about everything we need to do before it gets full. 

I open the window and the night breeze hits my face in the comfort that I didn't even know I needed. My phone vibrates on the bedside table which makes me run over to it, I don't want to wake him up. The caller ID shows that it is Eligio. I press the phone to my ear "Hello," I whisper.
