Chapter 0270
More than once I heard a few things out of the window that burned at my curiosity but the anger I felt from Alec told me I didn’t want to actually see. Emmy had found me a few boxes that she was working on putting the paper work into. I was finishing up saving different things to the flash drive before deleting everything else.
In the end, it was getting late as the sun was starting to set. “How’s it going?” Alec asked as he and Colt walked in the door.
“Good. Carry these to the car for me?” Emmy answered for us. They listened instantly and grabbed a box before walking out of the room.
“How’s the baby?” I asked.
“Good. Growing like a weed.” Emmy sat down and let out a long sigh.
“Boy or girl?” I asked as I turned the computer off.
“We wanted to be surprised.” Emmy rubbed her belly.
“Where is Jasper?”
“Probably doing something something that will end him up in the hospital.” Emmy grumbled.
“Speaking of hospital….” Penny walked into the room.
“Oh?” I looked at her, knowing where this was going.
“I want to meet them.”
Right on cue, both Alec and Colt walked through. “Meet who?” Ale asked as he sat down beside Emmy.
“Cassie and Zac.”
Colt looked at me. “Penny, they were in really bad shape…” I tried t
“I know but we need them to reject the title so we can move forward with the plans and… I just want to meet them.”
“Honey, you understand they didn’t abandon you?” Colt wasn’t against it but was hesitant like I was.
“I know that. We talked about this last night.” She glared at him.
“Penny…” I started.
“If You Were in m
position, would you allow anyone to hold your
back? Penny rounded on me.
“Fine. You want to meet them? Then go to the hosptial but you need to understand the trauma Cassie went through. Not to mention Zac. They look rough and everything they did for the last 19 years was to make sure you were safe and loved. Whatever you think or feel, remember that.” I gave Colt a look that said, she was your problem.
“Come on.” Colt sighed. I wanted to follow them as I was the only person Cassie really would know.
“Are you okay?” I asked, Penny. “I mean, you seemed a little stressed out earlier.”
“I’m stressed and can’t focus because I know they are here. I can’t get them out of my head so if it means I need to meet them in order to focus than I will.”
It made sense but I was more afraid of how she would handle this.
Penny was such a gentle soul that meeting her parents after all these years might be too much.
As we approached the hosptial, there was one guard standing in front. Like the rest of the area, it looked gloomy. The white had faded an needed a good pressure wash. What was once green vines hac overgrown one side but now it was all dead and crumbling. Even the
“Alpha, Luna.” The guard said as we each passed. He held the door open for us but quickly closed it after. Only emergency lights were on, making the hallway dark. I have expected someone to pop out of one of the rooms with a knife. Maybe I watched too many Michael Myers
movies.
I was out of it so when Alec stopped right in front of me, I walked right to him. “Oh, sorry!” I mumbled as I took a step back. “Penny, let me go first and tell them what is happening, okay?”
