Chapter 0356
Colt POV
“You look like you haven’t slept these last two days.” Just looking at Jacob, his eyes were
sunken, he was quick to anger and he was even fidgety.
“I think you mean three days.” Jacob rolled his eyes at me. It was in fact Thursday. The
last three days have been a bust. There was no direction to go on so we have been
mapping out sections and going through them with a fine tooth comb. My warriors were
searching as well but still, we have come up short
Ice’s luna ceremony was in two days, so Penny has been working around the clock to
make sure everything is perfect for her. This was a different view on things. Growing up, I
knew Ice had assistants and I saw how much she worked to get things done. However, I
never once thought about all the work Penny put into it. Now, the front row seat to her
craziness has shown me exactly how hard she truly works. Never once does Penny
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcomplain. Exactly the opposite, she does it without even thinking about it. She never is
tired or complained once. Lately, I’ve struggled with the idea of wanting her to slow down
and relax more but she seems to enjoy this. On minimal, I will have a talk with Ice about
doing the same for Penny’s ceremony.
“I’m surprised you even knew the difference.” I tried joking with him. Jacob just looked at
me like I was st upid.
“What do you want me to say?” Jacob sighed and faced the woods but I don’t think he saw
anything.
“The truth. How are you handling things? I know that was a blow but like Penny said, we
don’t think it was meant to hurt you.” We both truly believed that. Did she omit things…
yes. Did she lie to us and
because she is hiding something to help them… no.

“I don’t know. Like, I knew she wasn’t a virgin and it honestly took me a long time to get
her to relax around me. Even to comfortably hold my hand was a struggle. I completely
understood and never once did I push it. We both had to learn to adapt to what the other
person needed but I thought she told me everything. I thought she spilled all her secrets
to me in private.”
“Jacob, have you even spilled all your secrets to her?” I gave him a look. I was ready to
call b ulls hit on anything but no.
“That’s not the same. I never had a mate before her.” Jacob bent down and picked up
what looked like a T.V. remote but it was covered -in mud.
“She couldn’t help what the Moon Goddess gave her. Probably why she was so scared
when she found you at the party and Darin came out. He knew she was once mated to his
gamm a and then she got another ga mma at his rival. He would have never allowed her
to be given to us if she knew anything.” Trying to reason with him might be futile but I was
going to try.
“Or he thought she would never say anything because of fear.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Regardless, you can’t live on what if. Has she started therapy?” I didn’t want to push but I
needed my beta back.
“I made her start the next day. They have had two, two hour sessions.” Jacob nodded his
head as he kicked around some leaves.
“ALPHA!” I heard one of my warriors yell out from my right.
“Come on.” Slapping him on the chest, we jogged over to where my warrior was standing.
He was looking at an old Victorian style home. Wooden boards covered the windows, paint
was almost completely gone and the entire house looked like it was leaning, slightly to the

“Everyone stay here. It looks unstable.” I commanded as Jacob and I walked up to his.
First, we walked around the entire house. A basement window was broke but I doubt even
Penny could fit through it. Inanimate objects were sc attered around the yard to the point
it could pass for an actual junk yard but with trash. A chair here and a broken bedframe
there. Everything had a covering of vines that told me it had been awhile. since anything
here was placed.
