Tattooed Luna

Chapter 0562 “Whatever makes you sleep at night.

Either way, I am happy she is alive. I am going to make her wish she was dead.” As gracefully as I could, I walked out of Colt’s office. Alec didn’t follow me but I could feel his concern he had over my newly found coping strategy.

People were walking around like a normal day. The staff was working on waxing the floor so anytime anyone got around there, they were yelling at them to keep off.

Right as I was about to walk out the front door, the alarm went off. My entire body froze as I heard the growls from across the way. A few people bumped into me, making me trip over

my boot.

The warriors instantly shifted into the wolves and the females ran inside the packhouse. Colt and Alec came flying out before shifting in mid air.

“Where are you?” Alec growled in my head.

“On the porch.” “Stay there!” Alec and Colt stood in front of the pack house as some rogues made their way into the front lawn. | “Get inside!” I yelled to the last remaining women. As soon as the elderly and kids got inside, I shut the door and stood in front of it.

“What are you doing? Get inside!” Alec yelled as his wolf turned and looked at me.

“Turn around and pay attention. They are coming up on your left.” Just as I finished talking, two rogues jumped at the same time Alec did.

Between Colt and Alec, my eyes kept scanning the lawn to make sure no one got close to the packhouse.

The whole thing lasted just a few minutes before all the rogues were killed. Not a single warrior was injured.

The whole thing felt juvenile. “This felt more like a distraction than anything.” I muttered to myself. Colt and Alec shifted back to their wolves as warriors brought them shorts.

The doors opened, making me jump a little. “Kristen.” Alec’s voice caught me off guard. My heart was relaxing as I turned and looked at him. He caught my jump.

Why I felt so ashamed, I wasn’t sure.

“I’m good.” Wanting to ignore it, I tried to act like it was nothing.

Walking down the stairs, I went to the car to grab my phone. I wasn’t sure exactly why I was doing this but it felt like the right thing. Alec and Colt were busy cleaning up the lawn and putting all the rogues into a pile to burn.

“Kristen.” This time, I heard his foot steps. Reaching down, I picked up my phone. There was a total of six missed called and a dozen text.

“This was just pathetic, don’t you think? Like a dozen rogues to attack the pack?” Without looking at Alec, I just started shifting through the text. “Look at

me.” His finger went under my chin and tilted my face up before I could read a message. ee “Love, look at me.” “Pretty sexy with only shorts on.” My finger trailed down the center of his chest.

His hand wrapped around the back of my neck and the other firmly grabbed my hip. Pulling me against him, he planted a firm kiss to my lips. “Ilove you.” He whispered in my head.

I couldn’t help the little whimper that escaped me before I could compose myself. “I don’t know why that affected me. I've seen you fight before.

I've fought rogues my whole life. That was literally nothing.” Alec rested his forehead against mine.

“Because you are finally allowing your feelings to come to the surface. This is how you work through them. Feel them, deal with it and then let it go.” “Everything okay?” Colts voice broke our moment and forced us to take a step back. However, Alec kept his hand around my waist, which I was thankful for.

“yeah. What’s up?” Alec answered for us both. Wanting to avoid eye contact, I looked back at my phone.

“Appears to be-" Colt’s voice faded to the background as I read the messages. My heart started racing again but it was the water in my eyes that made it difficult. “Ice?” 1 heard but I couldn’t bring myself to look at him.

pulling up my voice mail, I hit play and then put it on speaker phone.

“Kristen! T-these guys came into your shop and destroyed it! I-it’s gone! Come quick!” It was Polly’s voice. She was working today as the office manager.

“No... no...no.” I whispered. All the emotions rose up to the point that I felt like I was drowning. I couldn’t doit. I couldn’t get lost in all this. I needed to keep my head in the game.

Before Alec could even say anything, I pushed part of them down. Just enough so I wouldn’t cry. Enough that outwardly, I could think rationally but on the inside, it felt like I was dying.

“Alpha Colt!” A guard ran forward. He was completely drenched in sweat,

even though there was a foot of snow on the ground.

“What?” Colt asked, clearly annoyed.

“you don’t have your phone on you but one of our guards just woke up. He said there was an attack at the club. The fire department is there now.” Colt and I shared looks. We knew who was behind this. It was a ‘if I can’t have it, no one can.’ The guard looked at us for a moment before he ran off.

My body started shivering. I wasn’t sure if it was from the cold or if it was because I was one more disaster from having a mental breakdown. “Fuck.” Colt ran his fingers through his hair.

“Gunther and Zac better come

through.” I whispered with so much venom that it even surprised me.

“You can go to your shop and I'll go to the club.” Colt looked at me like he wanted to say something.

“Don’t. I'll reach out to you with details.” I said before I got into the car, impatiently waiting for Alec to join me. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
