Alec promised as he caught up to me. I didn’t even respond but I smiled at him. As we moved down the hill, the curves twisted tightly. Since I was feeling so good, I cruised down them effortlessly. My bike and I were one as we rotated side to side. My knees barely above the pavement. We made our way home. It was a great afternoon.
Pulling into the packhouse, the atmosphere was very tense and uninviting. Alec and I looked at each other as we took our helmets off and made our way to Alpha Marc’s office. Alec knocked once before going in. I was a little taken aback by the amount of people here. Dad, Colt, Penny, Jacob, Jasper, Emmy and Luna Erin were all silent. Just staring at the wall.
“Where is Sherry?”
I asked Jacob.
“In the kitchen.”
He said in a sullen tone.
“What’s going on?”
Alec pulled me towards him as if someone was going to jump out and stab me
“This.”
Alpha Marc threw a piece of paper at Alec. It fell to the floor, making Alec bend down and grab it he lowered it so we both could read it.
“I don’t understand what I’m reading.
“It is saying the bullet came from a 9mm Smith and Weston, which we knew. However, the gun is tied to a series of murders that has happened across the U.S. However, this is what is concerning”
Alec pointed to some fine print at the bottom.
“Does that say… no…”
I must not have read that right.
“It said that there was additional DNA on the bullet that is a familial DNA match to a Penelope Atwater.”
Alec’s b*dy vibrated in anger.
My eyes looked up at Penny, who was avoiding eye contact with me. Colt was standing beside her but not touching her.
“Penny?”
She looked up at me with tears in her eyes.
“I swear I don’t know anything! You know I was an orphan! You literally found me in the woods!”
She was begging me to listen.
“I don’t even know who my family are!”
“The DNA was a percentage of a parent. That means, her dad loaded the gun that shot you.”
Alpha Marc clarified for me even more.
“How did you find her?”
“She was in the orphan when I volunteered there. She was a teenager… almost 15 and was getting into trouble. Sneaking out, stealing…”
“I was stealing books! It wasn’t like I was a druggy!”
Penny defended herself.
“The books she took were advanced books. No one payed attention to what books she took but that she took them. I noticed what they were so I took responsibility for her. Making her do tasks for me. Once she earned some trust and showed me what she was capable of doing, I started paying her. Not much but enough she was able to buy clothes and food. Eventually, Dad got her into a young adult housing situation and out of the orphanage.”
It was like I was on autopilot.
“I don’t remember any of my family. I swear! I only remember the orphanage!”
Penny had tears in her eyes.
“We found her on the edge of our property as a baby. No one claimed her and we put her DNA in the system in case there was any hits. There wasn’t, until now.”
Dad was looking at the paper like it was an alien.
“Colt, is she lying?”
Alpha Marc asked.
“No. She is telling the truth. You can command her if you wish.”
Colt looked up at the ceiling in pain.
This must be incredibly hard for him. His loyalty to his sister against his mate.
“C-colt?”
Penny looked betrayed at her but Alpha Marc didn’t need to be told twice. We watched as his aura lashed out and covered Penny. She instantly fell to the ground in submission.
“Have you told us a lie?”
He commanded.
“NO!”
“Are you leaving anything out?”
“No! I love Kristen and would never betray the only sister I have ever known!”
Alpha Marc looked around at us. Everyone shook their heads before he pulled back his aura. Penny slapped Colt’s hand away as he tried to help her up. Holding herself, she tried to make herself as small possible. I wanted to go to her so bad but something was stopping me.
“I thought they were rogues that shot me?”
“They were but we haven’t traced them back to who wanted to take you. We assume it was the same from the rogue attack here.”
“So we haven’t found Ace’s killer yet.”
I added in there.
“Did you find the phone?”
“We did, it is still being analysed. Looking for the IP address. It was all encrypted.”
Dad said with a a sigh.
“So we have nothing and now Penny’s DNA caused a hit. It will now be flagged for everyone to see and for her family to know where she is.”
I clarified.
“To be fair, they left her outside the gates, they have always known where she was.”
Jacob chimed in.
“All we know is that the gun that was used to shoot you was loaded by Penny’s dad.”
Alpha Marc stated.
“At least it wasn’t the gun that killed Ace.”
I said to Alec in the mind-link. Glancing up at him, he barely looked down at me but didn’t respond.
“But we don’t know if they rogue that was firing the gun was her dad?”
I asked.
“No.”
Dad said.
“So, we could have killed him. Where is the b*dy?”
“You know we burn them. There is no way of knowing if the rogue was her dad or if he just loaded the gun.”
Dad looked at me and frowned. In I knew that but I was hoping I was wrong. I felt so bad for Penny. Slowly, I made my way to Penny and sat I I down in front of her.
“Please believe me. I didn’t know. I would never betray you.”
She whispered through her tears.
“I believe you, Penny. You need to understand what this means though and you can’t be upset with Colt. This needed to happen so we could clear your name.”
She looked up at Colt and then back at me.
“I know, I just feel guilty and ashamed.”
“Things will probably get harder as this goes on but trust in Colt to lead you the right way.”
Placing my hand on her knee, I watched tears fall silently down her cheeks. Standing up, I moved back to stand directly in front of Alec. Pushing my back against his so I had that contact. His hand rested on my shoulders.
“It’s safe to say that we will be looking into her family. This said Atwater so that is where we will start.”
Alpha Marc sighed as he sat down.
“Agreed. Let us know when you do.”
Dad signaled for his party to leave. Penny stood up and sl*pped her hand in Colt’s as they walked out. Colt nodded to me but he was having a hard time right now. Guilt and confusion covered his face and nothing I could say would fix it. Only time would tell.
“What is the plan for this week?”
Alpha Marc asked us.
“Kristen?”
Alec looked down at me. I
