Tattooed Luna novel (Kristen and Alec) novel Chapter 239

Chapter 0239
“There are like twelve…”
“Yeah, grandma had eleven siblings. The women moved on with their mates. Penny has been trying to
track them down to see if we have any other family out there.”
“Did dad not know?” I looked at Colt.
“He wasn’t sure. It wasn’t a priority for him at the time and when things started falling into place, he had
to seal this place up so it would be safe.”
It was all I could do to nod. Things must have been really bad for him to felt the need to preserve this
place. The front door opened and Jacob walked in. As soon as his eyes locked on mine, I ran up to him
and hugged him tightly. He returned my hug, wrapping his arms tightly around me. It had been so long
since I seen him and it just dawned on me how much I missed him. I missed our friend group. I missed
getting pizza at the parlor, or going to the club.
“Hey, Ice.” Jacob laughed as he let me go.
“It’s been a long time since I seen you. I tried to give him a smile.
“I know. You have been… busy.” Jacob reached around him and pulled Sherry against him.
“Sherry. It’s good to see you.” I immediately felt bad for hugging Jacob. I knew she had a rough time
accepting him and I’m sure seeing him hug another girl wasn’t easy. Especially one that she only had met
like twice.
“I’m good. I really like being here and Jacob and I have really come a long way in this short time.” Sherry
looked up at Jacob. “I’m sorry for your loss.” She said after a moment and looked back at me.
After a moment of silence, Penny spoke up. “Would you like to continue to tour?”
Alec was just standing in the corner with his hands in his pockets, just letting me take it all in. Jacob
walked up to Alec and shook his hand as I followed Penny down the hall.
“That is a bathroom.” Penny turned the light on. It was directly behind the kitchen wall. It was a basic
bathroom with the same wooden floor. The vanity was light blue with a white counter top and a blue sink.
The toilet was light blue and so was the tub. She had it decorated in a water theme with she-shells and
sea-horses on the shower curtain.
“Here is the master bedroom with on-suit and this is the stairs.” There was a door next to the bathroom
When penny opened it, it revealed a massive bedroom. There was a four-poster bed with white lace hanging down. The bed was made with a white down comforter. There was probably a dozen pillows of
front and center and was all hand stitched.
Picking it up, I smelled it. It didn’t have a smell to it. “Do you want to keep that?” Colt asked.
Looking at it, I traced the letters. “No, it should stay here. I’m not a Jeffrey anymore.” Setting it back down, I saw double doors. It was open enough that it was a closet and I’m sure the bathroom went under
the stairs.
Colt opened the door to the stairs. Only Penny and Alec followed me. I noticed Jacob and Sherry sat
down on the couch, as if to give us space. The L-shaped stairs opened up into a living area. There was a couch and few rocking chairs with pink and blue baby toys. Matching playmates sat along the wall with matching teething toys or rattlers. The only difference, one was blue and one was pink. There was huge
windows that over looked a backyard and into the forest.
The wooden floors kept going but was covered by a large colorful rug. It had the rainbow on it, the numbers and different toddler stuff on it. It seems our mother was making this our play room. Her excitement caused her to get things that we didn’t need yet. It was like looking at a could-have-been life.
“There are bedrooms down here.” Colt said as he walked out of this room and into a hallway. We
followed him to the first bedroom. It was covered in a light pink with a dark stained wooden crib against the far wall. A changing table and dresser each claimed a fall with decals of different flowers on the
walls. The crib set was pink and purple flowers with a matching blanket hanging off it. Like the rest of the house, a large rug at in the middle but continued the floral theme mom apparently picked out for me.
