Colt POV
“You look like you haven’t slept thesest two days.” Just looking at Jacob, his eyes were sunken, he
was quick to anger and he was even fidgety.
“I think you mean three days.” Jacob rolled his eyes at me. It was in fact Thursday. Thest three days
have been a bust. There was no direction to go on so we have been mapping out sections and going
through them with a fine toothb. My warriors were searching as well but still, we havee up
short
Ice’s luna ceremony was in two days, so Penny has been working around the clock to make sure
everything is perfect for her. This was a different view on things. Growing up, I knew Ice had assistants
and I saw how much she worked to get things done. However, I never once thought about all the work
Penny put into it. Now, the front row seat to her craziness has shown me exactly how hard she truly
works. Never once does Pennyin. Exactly the opposite, she does it without even thinking about
it. She never is tired orined once. Lately, I’ve struggled with the idea of wanting her to slow
down and rx more but she seems to enjoy this. On minimal, I will have a talk with Ice about doing
the same for Penny’s ceremony.
“I’m surprised you even knew the difference.” I tried joking with him. Jacob just looked at me like I was
st upid.

“What do you want me to say?” Jacob sighed and faced the woods but I don’t think he saw anything.
“The truth. How are you handling things? I know that was a blow but like Penny said, we don’t think it
was meant to hurt you.” We both truly believed that. Did she omit things… yes. Did she lie to us and
because she is hiding something to help them… no.
“I don’t know. Like, I knew she wasn’t a virgin and it honestly took me a long time to get her to rx
around me. Even tofortably hold my hand was a struggle. Ipletely understood and never once
did I push it. We both had to learn to adapt to what the other person needed but I thought she told me
everything. I thought she spilled all her secrets to me in private.”
“Jacob, have you even spilled all your secrets to her?” I gave him a look. I was ready to call b ulls hit on
anything but no.
“That’s not the same. I never had a mate before her.” Jacob bent down and picked up what looked like
a T.V. remote but it was covered -in mud.
“She couldn’t help what the Moon Goddess gave her. Probably why she was so scared when she found
you at the party and Darin came out. He knew she was once mated to his gamm a and then she got
another ga mma at his rival. He would have never allowed her to be given to us if she knew anything.”
Trying to reason with him might be futile but I was going to try.
“Or he thought she would never say anything because of fear.”
“Regardless, you can’t live on what if. Has she started therapy?” I didn’t want to push but I needed my
beta back.
“I made her start the next day. They have had two, two hour sessions.” Jacob nodded his head as he
kicked around some leaves.
“ALPHA!” I heard one of my warriors yell out from my right.
“Come on.” pping him on the chest, we jogged over to where my warrior was standing. He was
looking at an old Victorian style home. Wooden boards covered the windows, paint was almost
completely gone and the entire house looked like it was leaning, slightly to the
“Everyone stay here. It looks unstable.” Imanded as Jacob and I walked up to his.
First, we walked around the entire house. A basement window was broke but I doubt even Penny could
fit through it. Inanimate objects were sc attered around the yard to the point it could pass for an actual
junk yard but with trash. A chair here and a broken bedframe there. Everything had a covering of vines
that told me it had been awhile. since anything here was ced.
