Chapter 0569
“I already mind-linked Jasper and we are going to figure out what is going on. You need to stay with Colt while I am trying to figure out what Anthony and Ann have planned.” Alec whispered to me.
Anthony and Ann had just walked out of the room. Alec was looking around to see if the coast was clear. “I just need a bucket to throw up in. I am seriously traumatized.” “We can never have sex in front of Adalynn again.” Alec muttered as he grabbed my hand and pulled me out.
There wasn’t a reason to respond as he dragged me back to the party. As soon as we walked in, I immediately spotted Ann standing by herself talking to
some people.
“Ice.” Colt walked up to me. Taking my | arm from Alec, he turned and left quickly and Colt pulled me back to the group.
“Colt, it was horrible.” Closing my eyes, I forced him to stop and look at me.
“I was told.” Colt was trying to hide a smile.
“It’s not funny!” “It’s truly very funny.” Colt grabbed my arm again and pulled me to the group. There was a few obvious men missing but the women were sitting down, talking in a circle with what men were left standing around them in their own conversation.
“Kristen!” Echo immediately started
laughing. noveldrama
Instead of responding, I faked threw up on her dress as I fell dramatically to my seat. “I had tears I was laughing so hard when Jasper told me.” Emmy still had some water in her eyes.
“How nice of a friend are you to tell everyone else my horrors.” Sitting up, I tried to gather as much dignity as I could.
“I knew you needed all the support from the girls.” Emmy closed her eyes and took a deep breath like she was trying to regain her composure.
“Can we go dance? I need to distract me.” Looking around, the dance floor was packed with both girls and guys having fun.
“Stay on the end so we can see you.”
Lars muttered.
It was like a switch and all of us stood up and ran to the dance floor. Staying on the end, we started moving to the beat. Wanting to escape, my eyes shut as I felt each beat to the music. Just letting my body flow as it felt like. My muscles relaxes, all my cares went away.
That was, until I started getting anger from Alec. Whatever he was doing, it was pissing him off. My eyes opened as the song changed but everyone was still just enjoying themselves. Not wanting to draw attention to myself, I just kept dancing.
“Ice, whats that?” Emmy nudged me and pointed upward.
Following where she was pointing, I saw movement on the rafter. “Alec,
where are you?” “Why?” { “There is people on the rafters.” “Fuck!” Reacting on instinct more than anything, I grabbed Colt’s arm. “Jace, you are in charge of Emmy now too.” Not waiting for his reaction, I ripped Colt off the dance floor and into the hallway.
“Leaving so soon?” Her voice forced me to stop right as we started off towards Alec.
“Are you?” My back straightened as we both turned and looked at Anthony and Ann.
“We figured we would turn in early.” Anthony said politely.
[ wasn’t sure what Colt was doing in his pocket but he fumbled with something before he responded. “Cut the crap. There is nothing civil between us.” “You are absolutely correct. I want only bad things for you.” Ann laughed as they got closer.
“Why are you even here?” I asked. It was a burning question I wanted an answer. “You didn’t give two shits about me when we were growing up.” “You were always so ungrateful. You took everything away from me so now it is my life mission to ruin yours. I won't stop until you are on the streets and it starts with the life you built of my money.” “Alec? Are you okay?” I said instantly
in the mind-link.
“So, you admit it. You were the one that destroyed the tattoo shop and the club.” “1 didn’t say anything. Just that I think you got what you deserved.” Ann shrugged. “Why don’t you just go back to the party and we will leave. You can enjoy what is left of your party... while you still can.” “That’s the thing. I feel like you should stick around for awhile.” “Keep her talking.” Alec said back but his voice sounded like he was struggling with something.
“Why would I do that?” “You might miss all the fun that is about to happen.” I put on my sweet voice and my head tilted to the side.
“Fun?” i “Oh yes, you see, Alec and I over heard your conversation and the pathetic attempt of your sex life. I must say, that was a poor performance.” I had the pleasure of watching Ann’s face drop and the color leave a ghostly white face. Anthony was studying me and slightly smirking. “You li-" Ann stepped forward with her hand raised but it was me to beat her to the punch. My body moved on it’s own as it took a step forward, blocked her slap and returned one across her face. It was so loud that it echoed across the hallway.
Colt stepped forward and kept Anthony from doing anything from me. “I'm
bleeding!” “It’s barely cut. Stop acting like a { child.” Rolling my eyes, I took a step back. The fury in her eyes was clear. It felt so good to finally stand up to her.
“Let me get this through your head. I am not a child anymore that you can slap whenever you feel like it. I am a fucking luna and equal to you. I will not lay down and take it. All the anger that built up over the last 18 years is ready to come out so this is your warning.
Leave my family alone and I'll leave you alone. If you don’t, I will use every brain cell I have to make your life a living hell like you did to me. Not even your pack likes you as a luna.”
