Nodding in understanding, Luana watched the two women leave. She wanted so badly to keep them with her in the hut for longer, to hear from Sasha everything there was to know about Benji and how she was doing. She wanted to know all the newest things in Daisy's life, what new things she had learned regarding her healing or if there was anyone special in her life. But she couldn't keep them there; all that would have to wait until they were safely away from the pack. There was genuine fear in Luana's heart now, regarding what would happen if she, Ronan and Tala were caught in the hut.
For the rest of the night, Luana ensured that Tala was comfortable, warm and well fed. The pup was confused as to where they were, and things were too complicated to explain. Though she did her best in terms the little one would understand. She mentioned how her two aunties had helped them and were giving them shelter, but how they had to be reeeeeaaaally quiet because it was a secret hideout spot for them.
It seemed to work, for the time being, and Tala was happy enough to eat her stew and snuggle into her mother.
Luana remained sat up on one of the beds with Tala, keeping watch while Ronan took the time to get some sleep. As Daisy had said it was unlikely, but still to keep an ear out, the two adults decided it would be best for one of them to be awake at all times, so would take it in turns to sleep. Rain hammered against the window ferociously, as if demanding to be let in, and the wind whistled even within the hut due to the few nooks and crannies. Luana kept her head turned toward the window, fingers gently stroking over Tala's head as the toddler slept at her side.
However, a loud clap of thunder, followed by a streak of lightening had Tala startling awake. The second growl of thunder had the pup screaming and clambering into Luana's lap. The young woman's eyes widened and she held the pup tightly to her, head snapping in the direction of Ronan who had abruptly sat up, instantly alert to any danger.
"Shh... baby, baby... Tala... it's okay, it's okay sweetie." Luana hastily worked on calming her pup down, making soothing noises and shushing her gently.
But the young child continued to cry, trying to bury her face deeper into Luana's chest, fingers clinging onto her mother's sides. A flash of lightening brightened the hut again, and another crashing roll came from the storm, dragging out another scream from Tala.
Panic flooded Luana, who prayed to beings she didn't believe in that the thunder of the storm, and the heavy rain, kept the screams hidden.
"Tala, baby... it-- it's okay. It's just the storm, sweetie. Nothin'-- nothin' can get you. Mumma's got you, an'-an' Uncle Ronan's here. We both got you. The storm ain't goin' to hurt you. Baby-- baby please. I-It's okay."
