“Dad has been cleaning his office. Creating files with passwords for me to have. Basically
preparing to switch over alphaship. He is actually the happiest I have seen him in years.”
“Happy?”
“Yes, Ice. Dad is happy. He is finally free of An n. I got more of the story. An n and dad used
to date as kids but when dad found out he was actually mated to mom, he dumped A nn.
An n obviously never got over it so when mom died, guess who was there to help dad? His
wolf was suffering and she was there. One night, when things got really bad, dad agreed
to mate with An n so he would still be around to raise us. A nn was doing everything for us
at that time so he thought she would be a good mate. When we got older and it was
evident she held a grudge for us not being her biological kids, that’s when he started
investing. Since he barely survived because of mating with A nn, he didn’t want to die and
leave us as orphans. Now, we are fully capable of taking over and he is happy to finally be
free of An n. Dad is ready to go or to

“But earlier, you said…”
“I know what I said but dad and I had a long conversation last night. He told me all that
and told me this wasn’t a choice he didn’t want to make but one he has been looking
forward to. I think he will be seeing
him smile as he dumps An n.”
My eyes looked down as I digested what he said. It made sense. Not that it made it easier
but I didn’
so guilty. “And saturday?” I asked looking back up at him.
“We don’t f ucking scare easily. We will attack and enjoy every minute of it. You have a
part you have
play though. Darin won’t have any idea what is happening so we will all have to tread
carefully but I thin saturday will end up being a great night.” Colt said with a smile. He
rocked back on his heels as he looked
at Alec. Alec nodded in response but kept looking at me.
This was a hard pill to swallow. I could see why he would be happy to escape her but I still
would never
understand why he stayed unhappy for 18 years. Maybe when I have kids I will understand
but right now,
my heart hurts for him.
“Did
you ever find out anything with the cell phones?” I asked.
“They are linked to a building in the city. We don’t have confirmation about it yet but it
was one of the
buildings we have been watching for any connection with Alpha Rip. The messages are
clear, they wanted
to kidnap you.”
“So, I was right.” I clarified as I looked between the two most important men in my life.
“You were. Your life is in serious danger.” Colt agreed. “Still, you can finish up here. We
aren’t asking you

but it would put myself and others at risk for unnecessary harm.” I finished for him.
“Correct.” Colt put his arms in his pockets.
After a few minutes, I sighed. “I’ll hold off until this is finished.”
“I think that is smart of you.” Colt had to get a dig in. I returned his smile with a frown of
my own. “This
place is really starting to shape up nicely.”
“Thanks to Penny. She really came through.” I agreed as the fight was leaving me.
Colt walked up to me and put his arms around me. “Everything will be okay. Sometimes, it
is okay to be selfish and worry about yourself. The one reason I am able to handle what I
have been is because I know
you are safe here. Are you happy here?”
I peaked around at Alec. “Mostly.”
Alec rolled his eyes. “Ice?” Colt pushed me in my side a little.
“Yes, I am happy.”
Colt pulled my face back towards him. “Do you feel safe?”
