Chapter 0467
“Nothing in particular. Cassie keeps going back to when her and Zach were younger. | can't tell if she is just reminiscing or if she is actually reliving it. She will say things that are not exactly appropriate. I'm starting to wonder if she has spermanent brain trauma from all she had been through.” “Well, is she happy?” Penny looked atconfused. “What do you mean?” “Is she happy?” Penny picked up her glass of water and took a drink. “I suppose so, why?” “As long as she isn’t hurting anyone, I'd say let her be. She has spend the last 18 years in a literal prison. | would be surprised if she didn’t have something wrong with her. What is it going to hurt to just go along with it?” Penny didn’t answer right away. “I guess | didn’t have any expectations. It’s not like | need a mother.” “Just accept and love her for who she is. Giving her this little bit of happiness would be nice. It might bring you speace. Any kind of relationship with her is something to be thankful for.” | wanted her to have her mother in her life in sform. It wasn’t going to be a mother figure but | didn’t want her to push her off either.
“And Zach?” Penny challenged me. She had a little smirk on her mouth like she knew my answer.
“When he isn’t pissingoff, he is okay.” Taking a sip, | tried to act like he doesn't bother me. “To be far, he hasn't actually just been part of this pack.” The staff started gathering up the plates and clearing the tables as people got up and started talking with each other. “I'm going to call it a night.” Penny said as | helped her stand up.
“Are you sure?” “Yeah, | hit my max for the day. I just want to lay down.” “I'll take her.” Jacob cup behind me.
“Alright. | won't be too far behind you.” Giving her a kiss on her cheek, Jacob took her hand and led her out of the ballroom. Alec stood up besideas | watched her until she was out of the room.
“How are you feeling?” He asked, finally. noveldrama
“Like I got gashed in an explosion.” “Well...” Alec grabbed his drink and too a sip. “You earned a permanent alliance with Alpha Carson. Which is huge.” “It really is. | was worried about it after we took
it from him.” No one really cup to us as we watched people slowly start to filter out. We would be seeing them tomorrow so it wasn't like | expected them to stay and talk.

“Alec, I'm ready to go home.” Ice cup to us.
“Wow, who knew you would beca party pooper.” Looking at her, | just smirked as she stuck her tongue out at me.
“You two...” Alec shook his head.
“Such a loser.” | kept teasing.
“You're lucky you are hurt otherwise | would be punching you right now.” Ice threatened with a very serious face.
“Alright. Tto go.” Alec sighed as he wrapped his arm around her and pulled her away. “See you tomorrow.” “Love you, sis!” | yelled after them.
She just turned and smiled atbut her lips didn’t move. Since most everyone had retired, | went ahead and decided to call it a night. Laying down next to Penny sounded appealing.
As | walked up the stairs and to my room, Emmy was just coming out. “Oh, sorry Colt!” “You're fine. Did Penny need help?” “Yeah, her zipper was stuck. She wasn't sure how long you were going to be and didn’t want to bother you. We are headed out so | helped her real quick.” “Okay. See you guys tomorrow.” | called out as she walked down the hall. Going inside, | locked our door and went to find Penny.
The water was running the bathroom so | went there first.
“I didn’t think you would be done so fast?” Penny said before | even caround the corner.
“How did you know it was me?” | asked as | leaned against the door frame. She was in one of my t- shirts. Using a makeup wipe, she was cleaning off her face.
“You have a very specific walk.” “I do?” | was a little taken aback as | never thought about my walk.
“Yes, sir.” Leaning down, she splashed swater in her face before turning the sink off. Handing) her the foe she r&d fier face off anit started putting so many different types of creams. Men don't even wear cream and my skin is smooth as a baby's bottom. Why women use every product possible is beyond me. Please read the original content at
“I'll get a movie going and we can lay down and watch it.” “Sounds good.” She said as | walked away. Getting out of my suit, | just put on sgym shorts and put in Michael Meyers.
Might as well watch a holiday thappropriate movie.
| had just started turning down the sheets when Penny walked out of the bathroom. “That is what you picked?” “What's wrong with it?” “Nothing.” She was smiling as she laid down. Moving the pillows around her, there was barely any room foron the bed.
“| thought it was a fun choice.” Turning the lights off, | somehow found a spot on the bed it RE eet hiEpay tooka few minutes to find a good spot to lay.
