CHAPTER 174 – Owen/Finn

  Owen POV

  No.

  Fear washes over me as I rush forward and grab Jimmy before his limp body hits the floor.

  I throw one of his arms around the back of my neck and drag him to the side of the door and out of view, while I mind link with Finn. “Don’t come out the kitchen’s main door. Jimmy just fainted when he heard Tommy say he hates the burned egg scent. I hadn’t even thought about it before, but it must be Jimmy’s scent.”

  Ugh. Why does this buffalo have to weigh so much?

  Concerned, Finn quickly replies through the mind link, “Oh my gosh. Is he all right? Don’t worry. I’ll make sure we go out the back door when we leave. It shouldn’t be a problem.”

  As I continue to struggle to pull Jimmy off to the side, Beta Ford and High Elder Ben rush to my side. The Beta grabs Jimmy’s free arm and the two of us drag the big giraffe to a private room off to the side of the dining hall.
