Tattooed Luna novel (Kristen and Alec) novel Chapter 493

After my shower, I had put on my full tactical gear. The only thing I put on that wasn’t part of my uniform was the onyx necklace that I had gave Penny. It made it feel like she was still with me, close to me. It still contained her smell on a single strand of hair that had gotten stuck to it. I needed to stay focused for her so I could give this back.

Walking into my office, I was met with all the alphas. They were gathered around my desk looking at something. “Good, you’re here.” Carson glanced up at me before looking back down.

“What is this?” I asked. Jace and Lars opened up a space for me to come stand between them.

“I had my men look up and map out the territory that now belongs to Penny and in extension… you.” Carson traced the red outline for me to see the whole thing.

“The casino sits right here. This is where we were.” Hank said.

Lars put his finger along a dotted blue line. “This is the railroad that isn’t listed on the government site. Completely off grid.”

Carson circled a few more spots. “These are what we believe are holding cells. An aerial view, compliments of G****e Maps that was updated last year, shows structures with bars on the window.”

“That was also last year. We need to be prepared for different structures or really anything. We are going in blind. Colt and Alec have some understanding of the security systems that they use.” Hank continued.

“Motion detectors, cameras…. pretty much everything we had. I had to time everything perfectly with the help of five men looking from different views to even get close to the house.”

“But you did.” Lars was looking at me with more confidence in myself that I had. “We can do it again. We will have more men and better support.”

“You will do it again because Penny’s life depends on it…” Carson looked at me firmly.

“…and your babies.” Jace finished.

“I’m not arguing that. I’m asking where do we even start. Do we attack the Casino or take down each random building. That would give them time to take her and run.”

“That’s why you have us. We each will lead men in different areas. The black ops teams will start with the casino. I have a blueprint of that…” Hank pulled out another map to lay down on top of the land.

“According to the men that had been there, if Penny was there, she will either be held in the basement or in one of the suits.”

Anthony leaned down and started tracing it. “We would need to clear it floor by floor then.”

Aston followed his lead. “We can assume cameras will be in every corner of the stairs. Maybe we can loop into the security or maybe just break into the security room.”

As good as all this sounded, it just didn’t feel 100% right. “We need to think about the fact that they might not be there at all. There could be a house or another castle that isn’t on the map. She could be held anywhere in that area.”

“Do we have the man power for all this? They will have an army of the mutant wolves and his regular men. I have no idea how many allies he has. After the attack they just did, they will have their defenses up.”

Carson straightened up and sighed. “Honestly, I have no idea but I have faith in the men we have trained. They are hungry to get Penny back and after the display of power your wolf just did, they will follow you anywhere.”

Carson was looking at me like a proud dad. “I hope Penny realizes how much power her wolf has. I doubt she has even used her wolf at all in her life.”

“You would be surprised what women are capable of when their children are in danger. There is a mama wolf in there and I can guarantee you that she will come out if needed.”

“I hope you’re right.” Nodding in respond, I tried to let his words give me hope. “I’m going to go check on Kristen and then I’ll meet you out front.”

“Wish her the best for me.” Carson held out his hand for me to shake.

Accepting it, I shook his hand before we left my office. I needed to make sure Kristen was okay and then it was time to get Penny back.
