Chapter 460
Tattooed Luna
Chapter 0460 This week has been fucking hell. The information our team has gotten has been very limited. We will be leaving early tomorrow morning to get there early enough to watch any movement.
The old man hasnât answered me or even called me. So far, all we know is Kara is being sold and that is from someone that isnât exactly reliable.
Tomorrow is Friday and then after that, we have to jet back and be here for the stupid Halloween party.
We wonât even be here to greet the alphas and lunas as they arrive.
âAre we clear on everyone's responsibilities?â I asked.
âIâ1l be staying home, greeting everyone and missing all the fun.â
Jacob was bitter he wasn't going.
Jasper wasnât going either but he was going to stay behind the scenes. He will be managing security and the newly installed system. Since this was a larger event for the packs, most of our warriors are staying here. The only ones going were Alec, myself and his five black ops.
His black op guys were sitting in my office, making sure we were on the same page since I couldnât mind-link them. âWe got new ear pieces in.â Alec passed out a very techy tiny little brown thing. No wires at all. Just the littlest piece of plastic that fit in our ears.
âIâm not expecting any issues. So far the cameras are working perfectly. The motion sensor is catching anything moving from a mile out. So far, we have dozens of foxes and the birds are really pissing off the guys.â Jasper = y | filled us in.
âThe chances of Vin striking now while Alec and I are gone are incredibly high.
We need everyone on high alert.
âA few of our allies are coming in early and bring their warriors with them. I doubt the security will get any tighter than it will be.â Jacob sighed.
â1t will be your head if it isnât.â Pulling the map towards me, I just stared at it.
âwith all due respect, Alpha Colt. We have been staring at that map for hours. We need to get a few hours of sleep before we leave in the morning.â Sighing, I knew he was right. My eyes were starting to hurt, my back was protesting from being bent over and my legs were starting to get restless. \ The stress of all this was starting to take itâs toll on me.
âAlright. Letâs go to bed.â I said, finally conceding. The men all stood up but it took me until they all walked out that I finally stood up and walked out of my office.
My phone was in my pocket when it began to vibrate. I was so tired that I didnât even look at who it was.
âAlpha Colt.â I said out of sheer habit.
âAre you ready for tomorrow?â It was the old man. His voice stopped me in my tracks and I was instantly awake.
âWhere the fuck have you been? For someone that wants money, you sure arenât fucking acting like it.â
âIâm sorry. I've been busy and in case you havn't notice, things are a bit dangerous around here. Sir Joe has been here, looking at everything and taking a layout. There is only one exit so you better have a good plan.â He was whispering and his voice sounded like he was hiding. The urgency in his tone was both alarming and annoying.
âDonât worry, I'll get her. Just keep Joe comfortable.â After everything that was going on, I still respected Joe and knew this wasnât going to be an easy thing. With only seven men going, we had to be quick, precise and efficient.
â1 did my part and I'll do what I can but everything else is on you.â Click! He hung up quickly before I could respond.
He was honestly the most annoying informant I had. Literally the worst one and the most annoying.
Hanging up my phone and slipping it into my pocket, I walked into our bedroom. Penny was laying out her dress for tomorrow. âI like those colors.â I said as I closed the door. She jumped a little in surprise but smiled at me.
âDo you? I wasnât sure.â Pennyâs cheeks looked flushed.
Walking up to her, I took her face in my hands. âAre you doing okay?â âyeah. I just did a lot of walking today.
Tomorrow, I am going to be sitting on a rocking chair on the porch with Jacob. Emmy and Kris are going to join me. Emmyâs little one will be with a babysitter so we can greet everyone as they get here.â âIâm sorry I won't be here to greet them and help you with it all.â honestly did feel bad.
Penny sat down in the chair. There was a pillow that allowed her to turn to her side so the weight of her belly was off her back. âYou shouldnât. You need to save Kara. Regardless of what she has done, she is still our pack member and thus needs your attention. Besides, everything she did was to save Gunther.
Yes, she went about it wrong but itâs the same as you doing what you need to do in order to save me.â
Somehow, getting a lecture from Penny always helped put things into perspective. Not that I liked it. âI know but I hate that it takes me away form these things. I've missed so many baby things because of this. Iâve missed appointments and now the baby shower.â âDo you honestly care about a baby shower?â Penny half laughed at me.
âThatâs part of the job. Once this is done, you will be best dad to this kids.â â1 donât care about the shower, I care about you.â Giving her a pointed look, I went to the closet to changed into shorts.
âTell you what, I'll open everything and you can put it away for me.â âSounds fair.â I had to smile at doing those mundane tasks.
âTomorrow will go smoothly.â Penny said as I came out of the closet.
âHope so.â
