Midnight asks, leaning forward to peer at the book as I slip it into a very pretty sparkly purple backpack that I think she’ll like. “Just something for you to explore,” I say, handing the backpack over to her. “Whenever you want.” “Cool!” Midnight says, excited, peering at the backpack and clearly wondering how to put it on it. “Jesse, can you help me with this?” “Sure I can,” Jesse says, slipping to the floor and helping his little mate with her bag. I smile, watching them, and drink some more whiskey, thinking that Midnight certainly did hit the jackpot in terms of mates. Our grandmother really did set her up with precisely the right man for this moment in her life.

Maybe it’s because you did magic. “I’m almost done,” she said, by way of apology. The second bag was much more densely packed than the first one, and much more practically, as well. There were two pairs of pants, six neatly folded squares of underwear, a raincoat, a sweater, three pairs of striped socks that clearly came out of the same package. A small plastic bag contained a bar of soap, a travel-size bottle of shampoo, a yellow toothbrush, and a half-used tube of Colgate. On top of everything was a canister of Planters salted peanuts, a bruised apple, and a sandwich wrap

“I’d love to see your reaction. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by what I got.” With anticipation building, I began to unwrap the first box. Inside, I discovered an assortment of chocolates—some of my long-time favourites and a few new treats I had mentioned wanting to try. The second box revealed three exquisite perfumes and a selection of cosmetics. But it was the third box that truly astonished me; nestled within were a stunning Birkin bag and a chic Dior bag. I felt a wave of disbelief wash over me. “Babe, this is incredibly generous,” I said, pulling him into a heartfelt hug.

Opening the back, I help Kelsea down, and then go around to Ruby's side, doing the same with her. "Look at you being such a gentleman," Ruby teases, reaching in and grabbing her bag. She's a teacher, for sure. My mom carries the same bag everywhere. I call it a GO bag, because no matter what you might need, it's probably inside that bag. You need a band-aid? They got it. A bottle of water? No problem. A poncho? Definitely in there. A sewing kit? No big deal, it's fucking secured to the side with a magnet. Teachers are better than any Boy Scout I've ever met. When the world ends, I don't need a prepper, give me a damn teacher, any day of the week. Securing it crossbody, she pushes her hair ba

I left it behind. I make myself stand and resettle my pack so the opening is upright. It’s not a real backpack. It’s a drawstring laundry sack that I sewed straps onto so that it was easier to deliver laundry to folks who live off the beaten paths, up on the steeper trails. I take out a package of gingersnaps and a can of cashews. While I’m in there, I take out the quilt I’ll be sleeping on. I wish I had the means to build a fire. As the sun sinks lower and my sweat dries, there’s a real chill to the air.

She informed and we clapped for her too. The Alpha queen beckoned at the servants and they started issuing us a bag pack. “Each backpack contains refreshments; snacks, water, and other items to make your journey to the mountain top less strenuous.” I collected my backpack from the servant, strapping it tight over my shoulder. Since it contained some things to help along the line, I could not afford to lose it because, at some certain point, I would have to eat because of my baby. There was no way I'd afford to starve my child because of competition. Never!

Then she walked up to join me in the reflection and slid a little clasp purse on a long, dainty gold chain, over my shoulder. "Put the lipstick and your credit card, and anything else you might need in there. You leave that butt-ugly backpack in the car and make a guy go get it for you if it needs to transfer vehicles," she said sternly. Then her expression softened. "I put a couple supplies in there for you. I'm guessing you aren't already... er... stocked." I frowned, then opened the little purse to find three square foil packets innocently waiting for me. I snapped it closed again, stiffening and trying to hand the purse back to Tessa. "Oh no! I don’t need… I mean, that isn't why—"

With a nod of gratitude, we accepted his blessings, knowing that his faith in us would serve as a beacon of hope in our mission. Before we departed, Dad ensured that we had everything we needed for our journey. He provided us with supplies, maps, and guidance, sparing no expense to ensure our success. “Take this,” he said, handing each of us a pouch containing provisions for the road ahead. We thanked him for his generosity and guidance, knowing that his support would be our strength as we ventured into the unknown. With Robin’s blessings, the pack’s support behind us, and the determination to see our son well again, we set out on our quest with, ready to win in our race against time to save

Relief flooded through me when my fingers closed around the cool plastic of my passport. "Thank God," I whispered, clutching it to my chest. I stuffed it into my backpack along with the wad of emergency cash from my shifts at Bella’s that had also been hidden there.
