Chapter 317

Penny POV “Not one f ucking word!” Colt stood up so fast from his desk that the whole things bounced up and scooted forward just a little. Jacob had just came into our office with the mail when Colt had his little out burst. “Who?” Jacob asked confused and glanced over me at. “Zac! He left before we even got back from the baby shower and I haven’t heard one f ucking word from him. He was suppose to check in everyday.” The anger flowing through Colt was unreal. However, there hasn’t been a single incident or hint of a threat on me or this pack. Everything has been quiet. It feels almost normal still. We had this pack meeting in an hour and then we needed to head down to the club for the re-opening. Colt has even had Alec bring in some warriors for extra security surrounding this event. I wasn’t even going to try to talk to him or call him down. The mood swings weren’t bothering me but I think Colt got all the pregnancy symptoms instead. Other than wanting to sit down, I was feeling rather normal. No, I just am going to sit here in my own chair and focus on my own s hit. “You know how these things go. He might not be able to.” Jacob was trying to play devil’s advocate. The look Colt just gave him, told him to shut up. “Anyway, people have started heading towards the guy for the meeting. Sherry has ordered a computer and has finished the menu. She is changing and will be down shortly.” noveldrama

“How is she doing?” I asked. “It took her a long time to open up to me. It was like a slap in the face. “I’m proud of her for not allowing it to suck her down.” “She has been trying to remember anything that might help.” Jacob grabbed the back of a chair and leaned forward. “It’s not a horrible idea to interview the women…” Colt stated. “Yes it is! You will do no such thing!” I said instantly.

“Why?” Colt looked over at me. Standing up, I crossed my arms over my chest as I walked up to the boys. “They have been traumatized. Let’s just rip open the wounds that are still healing! No, we will wait till there is an actual threat before we force those poor women to go down that dark memory.” Colt put his head down as he tried to calm himself. “Alright.” He said after awhile. “We need to head down to the meeting. We are suppose to be celebrating.” Looking at my watch, it said we wasted half an hour on this pointless conversation. “See you both down there.” Jacob pushed off from the chair and left the office, leaving the door open. “Come on. Let’s head down there. Maybe we can start early.” Holding out my hand, Colt took it but yanked me towards him. Burying his head in my neck, he took a few deep breaths as his hands wrapped around me. He was trying to calm himself down. Wanting to distract him, my tongue grazed his ear as I let out a soft moan that I knew would awaken something in him. A deep growl ran up his chest as his fingers tightened against my skin. “You want to play that game?” Colt said as he moved his hand under my shirt. M “Alp…oh! I’m sorry!” A girls voice cried as she knocked on the open door. “I’m so sorry! The door was opened…” Stepping back from Colt, I looked over to see Kara standing there with a nervous expression on her face. There was also some sadness in there that didn’t surprise me. “What is it?” Colt asked but kept his arms around me as I turned to face her. “I.. um….” She looked around before taking a step back. “N-nothing.” Before we could say anything, she ran out of the room.
