passenger door. So much for my seatbelt.
    “Where is it?” I panicked.
    “That was the object repelled,” he said as he flew down the interstate going the wrong way on the wrong side.
    Not even five seconds after he sped off in the opposite direction the forest near where we just were exploded. Smoke quickly covered the sky as a fire broke out along the forest wall. A semi-truck headed in that direction came to a screeching halt as we flew past him.
    “How much longer are you planning to go the wrong way?”
    “Until now.” He suddenly spun us around sending me flying into the passenger door again.   We sped in the right direction and got off at the next exit, right before the catastrophe we barely avoided.
    “Uh, so I take it this thing isn’t bomb proof?” I asked as I worked to control my erratic, yet still slow compared to normal, heart beat.
    “Very few things are, and they wouldn’t melt under heat to become pliable enough to make a car out of it. We have a shield but it can only protect us from so much. ”
    “ Figures . ”
    “ Yea .”
    Kai took back roads to my house.
    “What are we doing here?” I asked as he pulled into my driveway.
    “Checking on things and packing the rest of your stuff.”
    “Oh. I guess I will need more clothes just in case.”
    “Pack everything. Even if you don’t think you’ll need it, take it. I want this house nearly empty. You’re safer with us anyways.”
    “Kai, you can’t protect me from everything.”
    “I’ll try my damndest too as long as I can.” I looked at him, his face set, his tone final. I didn’t wa nt to argue.  I acquiesced with a nod.
    I pulled out my phone as I went upstairs and called Kellan.
    “Lex? What’s wrong?” he asked, his voice full of concern. I could tell he was on edge; apparently everyone was.
    “Nothing, sorry. I didn’t mean to worry you. I’m at my house with Kai to pack the rest of my stuff. We just got done talking to Auggy.”
    “I’m going with you.”
    “Kellan –“
    “You’re not winning this one babe. I don’t care what you say, I’m going with you. Auggy booked us both a flight.” He was firm. As much as I would enjoy having him with me, knowing he was safe, I would be worrying about his safety around every corner.
    I froze when I heard a car pull into the driveway. “Hold on,” I said, running to the window.
    “Relax. It’s just me, Craig and Mel.”
    “Oh, ok. I’ll see you in a bit.” I ended the call.
    “Hey dagger mate,” Craig greeted Kai downstairs.
    “Hey Kai,” Mel chimed behind him.
    “Hey,” Kai said, not sounding the least bit enthused. He’d been on the phone at the same time as me relaying the recent events to someone.
    A few seconds later Kellan came up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist as he nuzzled my neck.
    “Do you know how sexy you look from behind?” he purr ed, nipping my n eck. A chill ran down my spine.
    “Apparently good enough to excite you,” I replied, feeling him pressed against my lower back.
    “Always,” he chuckled lightly. I spun around and took him in. The look on his face quickly became tortured as we locked eyes. Something was bothering him. “They tried to bomb the car. Really babe? You couldn’t tell me this when you first called?” he growled.
    “Lose the block so it’s an even playing field,” I ordered. He quickly opened his mind to me.
    “Why does it feel like you’re always in danger?”
    “I don’t know,” I mentally replied, gazing into his emerald eyes.
    “Promise me you won’t do anything too risky in Spain.”
    “Is that where we’re going?”
    “That’s what we’re booked for.”
    I sighed. “Promise me that you won’t do anything risky in Spain.”
    He smiled, his dimple beginning to reveal itself on his left cheek. “That’s my line.”
    ”I can steal it if I mean it, and I do.” I looked down at the green diamond on my finger. “I don’t want to lose you.”
    He pulled me to him. “You’ll
