Chapter 360

“I knew that. I mean, why did you send her in there to allow her to see how women were probably tortured and killed? Would you ask me to go in there?” “F uck no. You will never step food in that house.” I was aware of the double standard that was going on but I couldn’t help it. My sister was not the same as my mate. Thankfully, Penny didn’t question it further. Instead, we watched Kristen move from room to room by the windows. Eventually, we stopped seeing her and I knew she was down in the basement. Did I like having to send her in there? Not in the slightest but there was so much riding on this. My phone rang in my pocket. Without even looking at who it was, I answered it. “Alpha Colt.” “I’ll never get used to hearing that.” My back instantly straightened as I stepped away from Penny. “Stay with Jacob, I need to take this.” I whispered to her before

walking away. Kristen POV Colt wasn’t lying. This house of horror was a woman’s nightmare. Walking into the kitchen nook, I was instantly greeted with chains on the wall. By the little indents in the drywall, many women were kicking. My mind went into investigation mode and I never even allowed myself to feel. It was like a switch. Shutting down, I could compartmentalize what I was seeing and feeling. Alec absolutely hated when I did this because he couldn’t feel my emotions. Without ume redumy me. Which, as I went around, he stayed right behind me. Looking around some but mainly watching me. Fortunately, he stayed in the doorways so I could get some space to really learn. There was so much to this puzzle and the fact that Colt even asked me to do this was huge. The footsteps were two different sizes. Which mean, two different people. By the side of each foot, it was two men that had been here. At first glance, it looked like a basic house that was used to hide out.

in. Maybe bring the random girl to torture and eventually kill but I was wrong. As soon as we hit the basement, it made the whole upstairs change. The three rooms were perfectly placed so viewing would be possible. What I noticed more was the staining. Each mattress had sunken spots that really made me look at it. “What are you doing?” Alec asked and grabbed my arm. I had taken at few steps inside one of the rooms. “Stand right there.” I pointed to an area just blow the stairs. Carefully lowering myself on the mattress, I put my butt where the indent was. This position made it possible for the person on the mattress to lean up against the wall. Without laying down. “Come sit down here.” I pointed to another sunken spot. Alec moved to the mattress. He had to reposition himself a few times. before he fit comfortably in the space. “Like this?” “With you in that position, it was almost like….” My voice trailed off as I looked around. There was so much drugs paraphernalia around the floor that most wouldn’t even question these room. “What?” They spent some time in these positions. This would be the perfect position for you to shoot me up.” Holding out my arm, Alec was able to grab it and act like he was inserting a needle. “This also allows someone to be watching.” “Like they were training people on how to do it?” Alec asked. way over “Maybe like they were training people how to handle the women they buy?” Shaking my head, I wasn’t sure but I was done sitting here.” Help me up.” Alec got up and took my hands. We made our to the other side of the basement. The sheet was pulled back, exposing the holding cell. The floor was still wet so I assume Colt had found the switch. “What are you thinking?” Alec asked.noveldrama
