Chapter 222

Chapter 0222 “We found the tunnel.” Jasper mind-linked us all. “What?” Dad asked when everyone stopped talking. “They found a third tunnel.” I filled dad in. “Marc, I think you need to think about stepping down. No, I am going to strongly encourage you to step down before this comes back and takes you down.” Dad looked Alpha Marc in the eyes. “What about you? You stepping down and giving it to your boy?” Alpha Marc spit. “I am. Sooner than you think.” Dad didn’t even hesitate as he answered. Looking at Alec, “What is the next steps?” “We need to extract Judd. All information at this point is considered invalid. We need to regroup and decide on a course. We will be following the tunnels today and closing them off. Hopefully by monday, everyone will be able to come home.” “Good.” Dad nodded in agreement. “Have Penny and Emmy do their thing and see what they find when we come over tomorrow.” I said to noveldrama

dad. “Okay.” Dad came over to me and gave me a hug. “Do you need to come home with me?” “No. I’m okay taking out the trash here.” I gave him one last hug before he turned around. “I will no longer have contact with you, Marc. I will only be dealing with Alec or only Colt will. My agreement is with him now.” Dad didn’t even wait to hear what Alpha Marc had to say. He just walked out of the office and out of the packhouse. “You need to think long and hard on what your next move is. I am going to be sealing off the tunnels and ! expect the correct answer by this evening.” Alec said before he turned. Grabbing my arm, he had me walk in front of him as we left the office. Not even bothering to close the door, we walked back into the

forest. “Alpha!” I heard someone yell for Alec. We hadn’t spoke the whole way. I knew he was working out some personal feelings right now and he would talk when he was ready. “Where is it?” Alec asked not containing his anger. One of the warriors grabbed something and a little door opened up. It was a wooden door that covered a whole in the ground. Just like I was told about the others. It was pitch black, leaving everything to the +15 BONUS “From my own sources. That man beside Judd, we believe might be Penny’s father.” Alec told my dad. “Explain yourself!” Dad’s face was turning shades of red I haven’t seen in a long time. “Yes! I put Judd into an undercover assignment! I knew one day that Rip would be an issue and I wanted to gather all the information on him I could.” “How long has he been in there?” Dad asked. “Nine months!” Alpha Marc ran his hands through his hair. “NINE MONTHS?” Alec roared. “You risked your gam ma’s life for nine f ucking months? What about his family? What about his mate? His own life? What if they figured him out and are forcing him to tell you the wrong stuff? They would have figured him out months ago and he has been living being tortured every day!” “When was the last time you even spoke to him?” Dad had his hands on the desk and looking down at the ground. “We talk over text. He sends me updates and his code word.” Alpha Marc was starting to sound distressed. “They could have broke him and been using that!” Alec punched the wall, creating a fist size whole. “What else are you hiding?” I asked as Alpha Marc opened his mouth to lay into Alec. His eyes went over to me and became slits. “Excuse me? Who are you to question m-”

“Answer the f ucking question dad!” Alec walked back in front of me, blocking me from Alpha Marc. Dad looked over at me and back at them. “I have no idea what your talking about.” Alpha Marc mumbled as he turned and looked out the window. “Yes you do and you need to tell us now! It’s time for your f ucking secrets to come out. Kristen told you about the tunnels. Why has Rip been working on attacking us for years? Why have you had a spy at his territory?” Alec crossed his arms over his chest as he stood firm in front of his dad.
