Chapter 0157 “Thank you.” I gave her a smile as they left. “Come here.” Alec turned in his chair so I could sit down on his lap. “What if it is about dad?” “Love, everyone dies at some point. I know you aren’t ready for him to go but look at the life he is living. Constantly being with someone like A nn. He put up with her for the sake of being alive for you and Colt but now Colt can take over and if he dies, he will be free of her.” “I wish he would just tie her up somewhere and keep her from showing her face to the world.” “She would just command someone to untie her. Until Colt is the Alpha and she doesn’t have Lunastatus, there isn’t much anyone can do.” Alec was trying to show me reason but all I wanted to hear was her being locked in a cell. “I don’t know.” novelbin
“Why don’t you work on a drawing till it’s time for Colt to be here?” Alec was suggesting something toget my mind off Colt or my dad. “I’ll try.” Grudging, I got up moved to the couch. Picking up my sketch pad, I started drawing Alec.Mainly just his eyes but his whole head was there. Still, I started there. Usually my sketches are in black and white but for him, I picked up the green. Alternating between black and green, I was able to catch the intenseness of his gaze. However, it wasn’t anger that I was drawing… I was so engrossed in making sure the shading was correct that I almost missed Alec going to the door and opening it. “Colt.” Alec shook his hand. Relief flooded me. “COLT!” Jumping up, I ran and practically jumped on him. He caught me but had to take a few steps back. “I was so worried/
Setting me down, he looked confused. “Why? I told you I would be here.” “You told me you couldn’t talk to me! You never do that! I thought something happened to you.” Colt pushed me back to the couch ad Alec locked the door so we would not be interrupted. “You got me at a bad time.” Colt looked like he aged twenty years. “What’s going on?” Colt ignored me and picked up my drawing. “This is really good.” Alec had sat beside me but was leaning back. Colt handed the picture to Alec.“Have “No.” Alec studied it. “I literally just drew it. Like this last hour.” I watched Alec study my drawing of him. “Do you like it?” “I really do. This is amazing work.” Alec handed it back to me. “Just wait till it’s finished.” Setting it down, I turned to Colt. “So, spill.” My nerves shot up as Coltdropped his head. His elbows were resting on his knees as he leaned forward. “It’s been horrible. An n has switched from you to focusing on Penny now.” Colt didn’t look up at me. Instant guilt flooded me as my hand covered my mouth. “Noo.” I whispered. “Yeah. It’s been horrible. Dad’s threats aren’t working, she things she is untouchable. I can’t be around Penny everyday as dad has me doing some things and….” Colt trailed off as he shook his head. “Oh Penny and then everything with her father…” Alec leaned forward and placed his hand on myback. It was meant to keep my anxiety low, which helped but my guilt was still high. “Kristen, dad doesn’t have a choice anymore.” Colt’s eyes pleaded with me to understand. The fact he even called me Kristen spoke volumes. “Oh, dad…” Mrs. Smith Author Thank you all for reading!
