Chapter 0534

"Do we need to revisit last night?” Alec asked quietly.

My body froze. Last night, Alec wanted to see how much I would submit to him. In the end, Iabsolutely refused to submit but I teased him so bad that he man handled me. It was honestly themost amazing night of sex we have had in months.

“You can try Mr. Alpha.” I said sweetly as I walked up to him. Alec didn’t move a muscle other thanhis eyebrow raising. Licking my lips, I got to my tippy toes and whispered in his ear. “I don’t thinkyou know how to make me submit.” My tongue grazed his ear as a low growl rumbled his chest.

Alec set his beer down and his hands firmly grabbed my hips. “I don’t?” He asked in an amusedvoice. His hand moved under my shirt as he lowered his head. His teeth gently bit on a sensitivespot I had on the back of my neck, along my hair line. It was just behind my ear but damn if it didn’tmake my knees give out.

Instantly, my breathing got heavy. Bringing up my leg, I wrapped it around his and pulled him legforward so it was firmly pressed between my legs. “You can try but I-” The door bell rang, telling usColt and Penny were here.novelbin

“Fuck.” Alec groaned as he pushed me off of him. He had to adjust himself as I laughed the wholeway to open the door.

“This looks amazing!” Penny said as they let themselves in.

“Come in! I said with a smile. “Closet is right there for your coats. No babies?”

“Nope. We left them at home with a nanny.” Penny looked half relieved.

“Needing some adult time?”

Colt took Penny’s coat and sighed. “You have no idea. Where’s Alec?”

“In the kitchen. Come on, food is done!”

Alec had downed his beer and was pulling out two when we walked into the room. “How was theroads?” He asked as he handed Colt a beer.

“Not too bad. The snow is pretty wet so it’s just melting on the roads.”

“Do you care if I snoop?” Penny asked. I didn’t realized she wasn’t with us.

“Of course!” I said. I probably should give her a tour but the oven bell rang out for me to get thesalmon out.

“What did you cook?” Colt took a seat on a bar stool.

“Salmon and broccoli.” I said as I hit the microwave for the broccoli. “It’s from the cookbook and Iwanted to try it.”

“Sounds good to me!” Colt looked a little worn down but nothing crazy.

“What’s wrong?” I asked as I studied him.

“We had a rogue attack the other day.” Colt took a chug as I pulled the salmon out.

“Everything okay?” I asked, my stomach dropped.

“Yeah. We are find but they got into the cells.” Colt looked at me, like he was unsure how I wasgoing to take the news.

“…and?” I looked between Colt and Alec. Alec had his arms crossed and was staring at me, tryingto gage my reaction.

“You are telling her now?” Penny’s voice came up the stairs before her head popped up. She hadjust been down stairs when we started talking.

“Might as well.” Colt sighed and sat up straight.

“Tell me what?”

“The rogues were able to get into a couple cells and a few people died. One of them was Ann.”

The news shocked me so much that I stopped everything and looked at him. “Ann is dead?” Icouldn’t believe it. “Are you sure?”

“She was unrecognizable but it was her. She was in her cell and is the same height and weight.”Colt shrugged but didn’t take his eyes off of me.

“Why are you acting like I am going to loose my shit?”

“I just wasn’t sure how you were going to react.”

“What did you do with the body?” Slowly, my hands started moving again as I dished up the salmon.The microwave dinged, telling me the broccoli was done.

“We burned it. I didn’t think of seeing if you wanted to come over for it, I’m sorry.” Colt didn’t have anexpression on his face but his eyes told me he felt like shit.

It’s not that I would want to pay my last respects but the hatred I felt towards her ran to my core.Watching her burn would have been uplifting to all the pain I went through. “Oh.”

Penny leaned forward after a moment, “Kris?”

Plastering on a smile, I was done talking about it. “Supper’s ready! Let’s eat before it get’s cold.”Grabbing two plates, I walked around to put them on the table. No one moved as I came back for

seconds. “Serious. Go to the table.” Giving them a look, they all grudgingly went to the table.

“If you feel like you need to visit her…” Penny started.

Looking at Colt, I pleaded with him through our twin connection to get him to change the subject.“How has Adalynn been sleeping lately?” He asked.

Relaxing a little, I stabbed the broccoli and ate it. Looking up at the balcony, I couldn’t see a thing.Alec’s and Colt’s voice trailed off as flashbacks of Ann hit me. If Colt said she was dead, then shewas dead but I just wanted to have seen for myself. I always assumed there would be a trial that Iwould vent all my frustration out. I’ve been holding onto this hatred for so long that maybe now Icould let it go.

“Ice?” Colt’s voice brought me back.

“I’m sorry, what did you say?”

“The salmon is really good. The buttery garlic goes really great with it.” I watched him take a bit andeat it.

“Thanks. I’m glad it turned out good.”

“So, Kris and Alec. There is something else we wanted to tell you guys!” Penny looked really happyas she reached her hand out and took Colt’s.
