Tattooed Luna novel (Kristen and Alec) novel Chapter 465

“It was my honor to be able to save her and it will be an honor to stand next to you in battle. You were always a good friend of my father’s. He held you in high regards.”

Alpha Carson put his hand on my shoulder and didn’t speak. Instead, he nodded and allowed me to continue into the house. It felt like I just got the approval from my dad with the way his hand gripped my shoulder. Just like my dad used to do. Up until now, I have always felt like I managed good without him but now I realized how much I actually miss my dad.

“I assume I’m okay to shower. This can get wet?” I asked Penny for confirmation as we walked into our room. She had already laid out my suit for the dinner and her dress was hung up on the closet door. Although this wasn’t a dressy event, the host always dressed up a little more than the rest of the attendees.

“I wouldn’t let it soak or put soap directly on it but you should be okay.”

“Come sit with me as I get ready.” I worded it as more of a request but it was still a question. I wasn’t fully ready to be away from her yet. That dream or whatever I had really fucked me up. I knew she was in danger but I never actually thought about what would the world look like if she died.

“Okay?” Penny agreed but I could tell she was a little surprised. “I will just do my makeup in the bathroom.”

Helping her grab her makeup, she didn’t comment further as she set herself up in the bathroom. Turning the water on, I opted for more of a cooler shower so it didn’t fog the mirror for her. Plus, the cold wouldn’t make this gash bleed more.

“How did you day go?” I asked as I reached for the shampoo. The water was a rusty brown as the dried blood ran off my body and down the drain.

“It was good. I just sat on the porch. We got lucky today was a nice day. Stayed about 70s range with a slight breeze. Thankfully, no one wanted me to get up. The baby shower went great, if you didn’t notice all the gift against the wall.”

“I didn’t but I wasn’t looking either. Anything in particular you liked best?”

“I can’t wait to you to see it all! I’m in love with it all.” Penny was feeling rather happy at the moment. Shutting the water off, I started drying myself off as she put on her light pink stuff on her lips. Not that I knew the difference between a gloss or chalk or whatever the stick was, the shade she was using was my favorite.

“That color looks great on you.” I complimented her.

Penny puckered up her lips and did a little pose. “You think so?”

“I know so.” Grabbing her chin, I went to give her a kiss but she turned away.

“Don’t mess this up!”
