Chapter 385

Chapter 0385 “What?” Colt asked me, slightly distracted.

By the time he finally responded, I had pulled up my panties and quickly made it to the door. “The girls...” My eyes frantically looked a round to see who it could have been.

“What’s wrong?” Colt asked. He grabbed my arm and pulled me to the side.

“There were three girls in there. They said something about a plan being in play and they had a part to play.” I whispered urgently. My eyes never left the room as they continued to scan.

“Do you know who they are?” Colt stood up straight and looked around. However, he kept his arm around me.

“I don’t.”

“Okay, lets head back to the table. Colt said as he slipped his arm fully around me and pulled me to the table.

“Penny, we are thinking about having a girls night. You in?” Kris was standing by the table as we approached.

“Of course! That sounds like fun. When?”

“Not sure yet but I’ll let you know. We have a busy couple weeks but I am thinking maybe on a school night.” Alec came up to Kris with a drink in his hand. I couldn’t help but notice how little her belly was. Still completely visible as a pregnancy but not near as big as mine.

“Oh, a school night..” Playfully, I gave her a naughty look as I took a sip of my lemonade.

“I like to live on the dangerous side.” Kris laughed. “We can do it at my house.” I offered. “What will the guys be doing?” “I think they will have a little hunting trip.” Kris id in a way that made me realize it wasn’t for an animal. “Interesting.” Was all I could say.

“Colt. We need to speak with Alpha Thomas about Penny’s luna ceremony.” Alec stated. “Alright, I’m coming.” Colt looked at Jacob and he moved so he was sitting at a different angle. His whole demeanor changed as the guys. walked off. “I need to make my rounds. I’ll be right back.” Kris said as she walked off. “I’m sorry, Penny. I need to go pump. We will be right back.”

Emmy and Jasper got up and walked out another door. My eyes followed her out the door but spotted three girls huddled together. Excitement suddenly filled me as I think I might have found the girls just by their posture. As soon as the door started closing, they started walking down the hall. “Where are you going?” Jacob did a double take as I got up and started walking quickly to the door. “Going for a walk.” I said without looking at him.

“You can-”

“Shh!” I put my finger to my mouth and quieted him. As we got into. the hallway, I grabbed his arm and pulled him along side of me.

“What is going on?” He whispered in my ear. We were making our way down the same hall I saw the girls go.

“There was three girls in the bathroom that said they had a plan in play. I want to know what plan that is.” I said back. My shoes were “We should go sit back down and let Colt handle this.” Jacob said, urgently. “If you are scared, you can leave.” said with a new found sense of adventure. “I’m not scared for me, I’m scared for you.” Jacob looked down the hall. Handing him my shoes, I just ignored him and kept walking. This was much easier and I felt more secure as the hallway started to incline. “Do you hear them?” I asked.

“Maybe...” Jacob kept looked back like he hated everything about this. My curiosity was getting the better of me.

“Don’t f uck this up, Mary!” I heard a girl yell.

“I won’t!” She answered like she was tired of being told this.

“What is the plan again?” The second girl asked.

“Penny won’t be dancing so I will be able to ask Colt to dance. While we are dancing, you are suppose to cause a disturbance and then I will be able to inject Colt with the poison.”

“Good and you?”

“I will be by Penny. When the distraction happens, I’ll inject Penny with this sleeping stuff and that will alow our men to take her.”

Jacob wrapped his arm around my mouth to keep me quiet.

Plastering me against the wall, I started to panic. “I’ll talking to Colt. Be still.” Jacob whispered so low in my ear that I wasn’t sure if I dreamed it.

“Perfect. Here are your syringes. Be careful and do not poke yourself.”

“This is so exciting!” I heard footsteps echo getting louder.

Jacob didn’t say anything but grab me under the arms and pull me down the hall. I was lucky that my shoes were already off.

Suddenly, I was ripped to the side and pinned against the wall. “Don’t move.” Jacob said in a voice that really had me trembling.

Two strong arms had firm grips on my arms to the point that it almost hurt. There will be bruising tomorrow. However, a few seconds later, there was some commotion and a few screams and grunts.

Words were not coming to my mouth as I tried to look but I was held firmly against the wall. There was a loud bang to our left and I was suddenly tossed to the right as the warrior engaged into a fist fight. It only lasted a second but the smell of blood was everywhere.
