Chapter 0314 “This is your rodeo but it might not be a bad idea to put someone else under to keep an eye on things.” Alec said. His finger tips were against each other in front of him. When he did that, he looked like his dad. “I just might know someone.” As soon as the words were out of his mouth, the image of Brad popped in my head. Picking up my phone, I hit the forbidden speed dial number nine. It was one I hoped to never have to use. The phone picked up and only breathing was on the other end. “Mansion blackbird.” I used our code word that was burned in my head. “I heard Brian died. My condolences. “I have a situation.” “You know what the cost is.” It was a statement, not a question.
“I’m prepared.” “This must be something juicy.” “You heard Rip and Darin died and my mate took over as Alpha?” “I hear many things.” “Rumor has it, Vin and Gunther survived and are after my mate.” “Interesting. Your dad never had this much drama.” Ignoring that comment, “Penny’s dad is Zac and he wants to go under and figure out what they are up to. I need you to find things out and keep an eye on him.” 12 “Hmm, I’ll get back with you.” Click! He hung up on me. “What’s the payment?” Alec asked.
“Favors.” Alec just raised an eyebrow at me. “There was a reason dad forced Kristen to train and why we never seemed to be attacked.” “Maybe it’s not a bad idea to work with Penny on a few moves.” Alec suggested. “Even with her being pregnant?” “Even basic self defense moves can save someone’s life. She just needs to hold them off until we get there.” “Your acting like she will be in that position.” That annoyed me. “I didn’t anticipate Kristen being kidnapped once and voluntary get taken. Knowing what that would mean for herself.” Alec’s face darkened. “She wouldn’t have survived it had your dad not trained her or had such a powerful wolf.” “She had 18 years worth of training and still cout looking like a boxing bag.” “But she was alive.” Alec said and stood up. I had to give him that. “Let’s keep things running like normal. We don’t know how imminent this threat even is. I say we gather information and go from there. Be safe and what not but I can’t ask Kristen to close shop again just yet.” “I agree.” Alec slappedon the shoulder as we walked out. “You know we area team in this.” “I sure hope so, I only willingly doubled your territory.” I joked with him. or your sister?” Alec snorted. 212 “Is there a difference?” We walked out of my office and out to the car. There wasn’t a single bone in my body that felt good about making that call but I’d do anything to protect Penny. “Kristen doesn’t know about him.” I didn’t need to elaborate for him to understand. “Understood.” Alec didn’t even look atbut kept his eyes out the window. If there was one thing I knew about Alec, it was his ability to keep his word. Everyone was sitting on the porch when we got back. Laughing like they relaxed and weren’t worried. Three of them were pregnant so it wasn’t the worst thing they were relaxed. I was happy to see Jacob.
and Jasper were sitting on either side at the bottom of the stairs. If there was an attack, they would be front and center. I suddenly becaware I still didn’t have a shirt on. Neither one of us said anything as we walked up. I gave Penny a kiss on the cheek. before sitting down in the step below her. Draping my arm over her legs, I just listened to their conversation. “Okay, so we will cout earlier to help.” Penny said. “Help with what?” Alec asked. He had walked up to the top and was leaning against the post. 30
