Chapter 315

Chapter 0315 “Decorating for prom.” Emmy said. “Sherry and Penny are going to come out earlier and help get it all ready.

“The club is having their grand re-opening Friday.” Kristen look at me like she wasn’t sure anymore.

“Yeah, it is.” Making a me ntal note to highly increase security.

“I have an envelope for you with dates. The Halloween party is a go. I’d like to do it at the event center too if that is open.” Penny said to Kristen.

-“Perfect. I’m excited to dress up.” Kristen rubbed her hands together and looked at Alec.

“What are you going to go as, Colt?” Jacob asked me.

“A bodyguard.” I wasn’t in the mood to be thinking about Halloween.

“Oh boo!” Kristen gave me a thumbs down. “Get more creat “Beauty and the Beast.” Sherry said.

“Oh! I like that!” Penny smiled.

“You don’t want my wolf walking around a party.” Shaking my head looked at Kristen.

“We have a long time to think about it.” Alec said and stood up straight.

“We need to head home. There is some stuff I need to do.” I told the group and stood up.

“Not staying for supper?” Kristen frowned at me.

“I’ve had enough of you for one day. Last thing I want is to sit through as for Halloween.” I tried to make a joke at Kristen. She just looked at me like I was st upid.

“What a good brother.” She smacked my arm.

“I try.” I said as I walked off to get the envelope for Penny. Truthfully, I didn’t want to see anyone right now and I knew I needed to come clean to Penny about what just happened. As much as I wanted to keep her in the dark, I knew that wasn’t an option.

Grabbing the envelope, I headed back to the group. They had all stood up and the girls were hugging each other goodbye.

“Here, Ice.”

“Thank you.” She said and took it out of my hands. Giving me a hug, but whispered so quietly in my ear that I knew no one else heard it. Congratulations, you will be such a great dad.”

I gave her an extra squeeze before letting her go. Our eyes met and I knew I didn’t need to respond, that she knew my thanks.

“Ready?” Penny asked, separating us.

“Yeah.” Kristen walked back to Alec. After a nod to Alec, Penn walked back to the car and got in..

The tension was thick but I was more focused on how Penny was going to react to this. Jacob didn’t mutter a single word, nor did Sherry. The entire drive, was nothing but suffocating silence.

However, I wanted to talk to Penny without being in the pack house. Jacob, Sherry... we are going home for the evening.” Penny had reached for the door handle but stopped.

“Oh? Oh, okay.” Jacob said and motioned Sherry to get out.

Penny didn’t say a single word as they got out and shut the door.

2/2 but enough that we could sleep here okay. Getting out, we walked up to the steps and sat down. The warm breeze gently tossed Penny’s hair as she patiently waited for me to speak.

“I’m sorry...” I started.

“I’m not going to like this, am I?” Penny nodded and looked away from me.

“Probably not.” I said truthfully. “You heard what Tanya said. Alec and I spoke to the only other person who knows the inner workings of Rip.”

It was silent for awhile before she spoke. “Zac.”

“Yeah. He thought he killed Tanya but confirmed who Gunther and Vin were. He is going to go back under and see what he can figure out às to why they are after you.” I dropped that bomb and looked at the silhouette of my beautiful mate. She was looking up at the stars but closed her eyes when I finished speaking.
