Tattooed Luna novel (Kristen and Alec) novel Chapter 529

“Do you know where they were making the mutant wolves?”

“I didn’t. I was only part of recruiting the women here. He would have me go to human pubs or homeless shelter and find some with no families.” He didn’t even blink as he answered.

“Do you know anything about a casino?”

“Oh yeah. Rip owned that and he used it to finance the whole thing. The idea was really Rip’s and Darin just took it over when he was old enough. Vin was Darin’s right hand threw it all so when they died, he tried taking it over. Except, he was pissing everyone off and not paying off people like Rip would. That’s why he called in his uncle. Joe had been here weeks before I think you probably found out about it. Though, my time line might be off, head injury and all.”

“What did Vin want with Penny?”

“He wanted what he felt like she owed him. Darin promised Vin a lot of things that he had no intention giving out. Vin didn’t think you would find the casino because it was under the Midnight name and he wouldn’t accept that a girl was an alpha. He blamed Penny for it all since it was her mother that had Penny first. All this would have been avoided if Penny wasn’t around. Vin wanted everything Darin had.

“That was a lot of nothing.” Alec said, behind me.

“I’m not sure what to tell you. There isn’t some big truth bomb. Vin was just trying to take everything Darin had built. He would had lost it all if it wasn’t for Joe but I wasn’t privy to any of that.”

“Is there anyone else that is still alive that would come back to try to kill Penny?” I asked.

“No. I’m the last person. Though, the warriors might still hold a grudge but I haven’t talk to any of them.”

“What are your intentions?” Alec asked.

“I just want to live a quiet life with Kara. I’ll join your pack.” Gunther’s eyes scrunched together.

“Penny is his alpha.” Alec muttered in realization.

Shit, he was right. She was still his alpha. “She is what?” Gunther asked.

“Penny. She is technically still the alpha of the Midnight River pack.” I clarified. “We joined the lands but we haven’t officially gotten rid of the name.”

“Well, shit.” Gunther looked shocked. “So, all the warriors that are under your command?”

“I’m her mate, that makes me able to command them to listen.” Shrugging, it wasn’t a big deal will now.

“However, we are joining everything and the Midnight River pack will be gone.”

“At the end of your probation, we will decide on your future.” I said, firmly.

“Why are you doing this, Colt? Why not just exile us and you will never see us again!” Kara was crying. The anger in her eyes didn’t surprise me. She was going to have to face her family, her friends and her old life.

All the people she betrayed, it was coming back to bite her in the ass.

“KARA!” Gunther said, shocked. “You can’t sa-”

I held up my hand to stop him from talking. “Kara, running from your choices isn’t going change anything. You had choices… both of you. You could have walked up to my office and told me what was going on and I would have helped you. Instead, you committed treason. Now you get to face the people you turned your back on. If you want my forgiveness, this is how you are going to do it. You don’t have a choice. If you run, I’ll hunt you down and bring you back kicking and screaming.”

“What happened to Zac?” Gunther asked after a short pause.

“He has been confined to his house with Cassie. I’ll be allowing him to come out of house arrest tonight too.”

“Good.” Gunther had something in his eyes that told me I wanted to be there when they came face to face.
