Tattooed Luna

Chapter 0556 After changing into sweats, Alec carried me down stairs. The basement was like another living area. With three couches circling around the 85 inch television, there was a completely separate office area. Since we planned ahead, that office is completely soundproof and doubles as a panic room. Since it has multiple couches that pull out into beds, it was ideal for all of the alphas to come together and have a private meeting.

Alec placed me on one of the couches and moved the ottoman over for me to keep my foot raised. Just as he was putting some ice on it, the door bell rang. “I'll be right back.” The anger was still stewing inside him but I just felt numb.

As soon as I was left alone, I closed my eyes and tried to focus on my own feelings. The shock has faded and all that was left was anger, confusion and a sense of doom. Whatever she had planned was not going to be good.

As you slowly take the lid off something, I tried to do that to my feelings. They were currently pushed down and sealed so trying to slowly open the container was difficult. The visual of the lid finally opening was like opening Pandora’s Box. They all came back in full force. The sudden rush of emotion left me panicked to the point that I shut that lid so tight.

“Hey, Ice.” Colt said as he came down the stairs. I tried to hide my heavy breathing but it was difficult.

“Where is Penny?” I asked as I only

saw Colt walk around the corner.

“She wanted to stay home with the kids.” He sat down next me to. “Treally am sorry. I honestly thought she was dead.” “That isn’t the worrisome part. The fact that Anthony got into your cells and staged her death. Just for the dramatic affect of walking down the aisle for the luna ceremony.” Colt looked down and nodded as I just laid out my only concern. It wasn’t his fault and even if he had known that wasn’t her, the outcome wouldn’t have changed. “What could she want?” “My guess is the money.” I said as Carson, Hank and Alec all walked into the room.

“T don’t see how. The will kept Ann

from getting anything.” Carson just stood off to the side with his arms folded. Hank sat on the adjacent couch, just shaking his head.

“How did you open your shop?” Hank asked me.

“Dad loaned me the money and I paid him back. I didn’t make a profit until it was completely paid off.” I looked over at Colt. “She can’t say that was her money. Even if it was, I still paid it all back.” ‘Yeah but dad took that money and put it back into your account. He would add little at a time so you would never notice. She might be able to say that she is owed something since she didn’t see the money.” Colt looked over at Alec.

My heart sank at that. As soon as I

went to push that down, I stopped myself. I couldn’t loses my shop but I couldn’t afford to add that to the box.

“We won't let her take it.” Carson said, softly, like he was trying to sound like a father figure.

More footsteps sounded around the corner until Jace and Lars walked in.

Alec walked over and shut the door, seeling off the soundproofing. Colt stood up to shake their hands.

“Sit by me?” I asked Alec in the mind- link. He didn’t answer nor was he surprised. However, he was happy.

Putting his hand on my thigh, I slipped my arm around his to anchor myself as we had this discussion.

“Now that we are all here.” Colt started. His eyes landed on my hand on Alec’s arm, he sat down next to Hank.

Carson stayed standing and Jace and Lars all took a seat. “What the fuck just happened?” iu “Does anyone else think he had something to do with Molly’s death?” asked the room. & It was as if no one else had thought about that, everyone stiffened up and looked around. “Surely, not...” Lars looked sick.

“He figured out where my cells were, staged a rogue attack and planted someone else there. It was all too perfectly planned out. The timing would suggest he could have had something to do with it. Otherwise, why spring her out?” Colt worked through what I said out loud.

“This is the way I see it.” Carson looked at Colt with complete

seriousness. “Either you Rerian war and fight it out or you wait and see what happens. We already cut ties. I'll submit all the paperwork but unless you want to go back to war, we will just have to wait and see what happens.” If Alec wasn’t holding into me, he would have probably flipped his shit.

“He attacked Kristen. She almost died.” @ “You boys have the reasons and we will back it up but unless you want to go back to war, what choice do you have?” Carson kept looking between Colt and Alec. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Stage your own attacks.” Jace said quietly from the back of the room. We all turned to look at him. “Am I the only one under the impression you

have a couple people in your packs that have knowledge of some shady people?” 5 “You want us to let Gunther loose to terrorize Anthony?” Alec looked over at Colt in shock.

“Or Zac. Either one or both. What do you have to lose?” Jace sat back and looked at them. He knew he was right but neither Alec or Colt thought about that possibility.

“That really isn’t a terrible idea. Send someone with them that you trust and organize hell for them. If nothing else, it will be entertaining to watch him get attacked.” Lars seemed way too excited for this.

I was feeling petty enough that I was on board with it. “Does anyone know the layout of Anthony’s pack?” A
