Tattooed Luna novel (Kristen and Alec) novel Chapter 440

“Colt, you have been staring at that screen for two weeks now.” Penny placed her hands on my shoulders. It has been two weeks since we visited Vin. For two weeks, my eyes felt like they haven’t left the tracking screen. Gunther and Kara have been stationary at an abandoned houses in the middle of the woods. Never once leaving there. There was no way of us knowing if Vin was coming and going and without just showing up, we had to act like we had no idea where they were at. It was already risky that we showed up at the castle.

“I know. I’m not sure what I am looking for but I can’t seem to look away.”

“Has there been any word on movement with the auctions?” Penny asked. She waddled over to the sofa and sat down. Her belly was really rounding out. She was at the point in her pregnancy that women with one baby felt like at 40 weeks. Still, she was being a trouper. Since her blood pressure was staying within the normal range, she has been able to keep doing whatever she wants. However, at the end of the day, her ankles are pretty swollen.

“Some whispers but nothing that was concrete. Zac claims he is healed and ready to go back out there. At this point, I don’t think that is a good idea. He has used up most of his lives and I might not be there a third time to save his ass.” Sighing, I turned off the tracker and leaned back in my chair.

“I doubt you are going to stop him, either way.” Penny was rubbing her belly with both hands.

“The Halloween party is getting closer. Are we ready for it?” I asked, changing the subject as that one has been the center of our lives.

“Oh yeah. We are good to go. Food will be arriving soon and all the decorations arrived yesterday.” Penny’s face lit up.

“Decide on a costume?”

“I think I am going to go as the Moon Goddess. That will be simple, comfortable and easy to put together.”

“Good.”

“What about you?” Penny looked at me with a raised eyebrow.

“Do you have something in mind you want me to go as?” I asked, trying to read her expression.

“Father time.”

Not that it sounded appealing but I didn’t care enough to go against whatever she wanted. “Sure, if that is what you want me to go as.”

“You don’t have to.” Penny frowned at me.

“I just don’t want to wear a beard like that.” If I remembered correctly, he had a long gray beard with robes. I was okay with the robes and a large clock hanging down my neck but I’ll drawl the line at the beard.”

“Ha!” Penny laughed as the door opened and Alec walked in.

“Did I interrupt?” He looked at Penny with a little amusement.

We never really told Penny what danger I was in. Obviously, we told her what happened and everything but left out the sheer danger I put myself into. Not even mentioning what I asked of Alec. That will be an unspoken thing that Alec will take to his grave.
