    “What if….” Kris gave him a look before looking at me. “This is just a theory.” She told me before


    turning back to Colt. “What if Vin is trying to take over for Cash and continuing the business. Now, he


    would have lost his reputation and assuming his buyers do not want anything to do with him, he needs


    to prove he can run the business. What a better way to prove to them that he has what it takes by


    getting and selling the alpha of the pack? The daughter who inherited it all. The girl who stole it from


    Darin.”


    My mouth hung open and my eyes closed as she kept talking. This was too much. My hand moved to


    cover my belly as Kris fell silent. Opening my eyes and looking at Colt, he was just staring at his sister.


    An unspokennguage between them that had never bothered me until this very moment..


    Knock! Knock! The office door rattled but since Colt locked it, they couldn’t get him. Colt got up and


    opened it for Jacob. “I’m sorry, I’m running behind. Alec needed some help with the boxes. I have them.


    outside if you wish to bring them in here?”


    “Yes, please.” Kris answered for us.


    “Alright.” Jacob walked out and Colt got up to follow him.


    “Are you okay? It is just a theory.” Kris put her hand on my knee.


    “When has your theories ever been wrong?” I gave her a sad smile. It took everything in me to hold


    back the tears that wanted to show themselves.


    “There is a first time for everything.” Kris tried to pull me in for a hug but I gently leaned away.


    “Thank you but I don’t really want to be touched right now. I am


    nonumy myoen up un


    UVIIL MUTIL


    “I understand that. All too well.” Kris whispered as the guys came back with the boxes.


    I watched as the three of them got down on the floor and started shifting through the boxes. I asked for


    this, didn’t I? I asked to be part of the discussions when it came to me. Kristen knew she was the target


    from day one. She was kidnapped twice and kept a straight face. I wanted to be like her but…. this was


    too much. If Kris was right, which she is rarely wrong, I am their target because they are going to make


    a show of me. I guess finding that house was going to be a point for us. If Sherry would have been


    more forting to begin with, we could have known this earlier.


    “Love, are you okay?” Colt asked in the mind-link.


    My whole body jumped. I didn’t realize I dazed off but as I looked over at them, Colt was still looking at


    papers. It was like he was trying to not bring attention to me, giving me time to gather myself.


    “No… yes… I don’t know.”


    “We don’t have proof what Ice said was even true.”


    “When is she ever wrong?” I asked.


    “I’ll keep you safe.” Colt promised.


    “Like Alec was able to keep Kristen safe?” I knew as soon as the words were out that it was the wrong


    thing to say. Colt jumped up, his ck eyes looked an me angerly.


    “Whoa, what is going on here?” Kris jumped up and stood between us. Jacob grabbed Colt’s arms and


    pulled him back.


    “That’s your mate, dude.”


    “What did you just say?” Colt asked angerly at me.


    BONUS


    “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said it.” I whispered, unable to stop the tears at this point.


    “What did you say?” Kris turned and looked at me.


    “Colt said he would keep me safe and….”


    “And what?” Kris pushed.


    “I said he was going to keep me safe like Alec kept you safe.”


    Kris looked taken aback for a second. She didn’t yell and didn’t even


    look angry. “Colt, why don’t we go for a walk.” Grabbing his arm, she pulled him out of the office and


    shut the door.
