Tattooed Luna novel (Kristen and Alec) novel Chapter 361

Chapter 0361
“I don’t really know.” We started walking upstairs. Going to the front door, I stood in front of it. “From this point of view, everything looks nice. A flower in the vase over there. Picture on the wall over here. Almost welcoming. The most direct route to the stairs, everything is still looking presentable. Fully furnished rooms. Less dust in those rooms like they actively worked on cleaning that area.” Alec followed me. “Then you get to the grand staircase. Under this dust, the wood is polished and preserved. The carpet on the stairs is in good condition. Nothing is torn or even worn down. Reaching the landing, there is al nice flower. Again, welcoming. This was designed to make a woman. feel at lease.”
“I can see that.” Alec agreed.
“Then you get to this office room. Judging by this couch, this is where they initially attacked. See how they nailed the legs to the floor? So it wouldn’t move around on them. It was like they brought them up here. to interview them or something. Maybe even gave them a water or tea that was laced with a drug.”
“Then taken to the basement.”
“Yeah. This was more of a side business than anything. Vin might have lost so many clients when Cash died. He could want to get Penny as a major f uck you to them. A ‘I still can do this without Cash’ kind of thing. Maybe Vin wants to sell Penny to get started up again. Those clients probably lost all confidence in him since everyone is gone and he is building up his reputation.”
“That is an interesting theory.” Alec nodded but he was looking up at the ceiling.”
“What are you looking at?” I asked.
“There was a window at the top of the house. It was circular with a flower in stained glass. It isn’t in this room.”
“You think there is an attic?” I started helping him. “Most times, there is a ladder that is in the closet.” I said as I started opening the doors. The second try, I found it. It wasn’t big at all, typical from what your would have seen when this was built. However, there was a rectangle cut out on the ceiling.
“Find it?” Alec came up behind me.
“I did.” I said as I stepped aside. Alec grabbed the little string and pulled down. Dust and who knows what else fell down on his head but so did a ladder. “That is a tiny hole.”
“I don’t think I will fit.” Alec tried to take a step on the ladder but the bottom step broke in half.
“Lift me up.” I said.
“Hell no.” Alec looked at me like I was st upid.
“What? We need to look in there.”
“You could fall through the floor!” Alec pointed to the broken ladder. step.
“It’s a good thing you are good at catching me.” Patting his arm, I moved around him. I knew he wasn’t happy but instead of fight me and losing, he just put his hands on either sides of my hips and made. sure I was okay.
Taking one step at a time. They all cracked as I went. My feelings. were still turned off but I could bet that Alec was s hitting bullets at this point. Finally, I reached the top.
“Do you have a flashlight?” I asked. “On your phone?”
“Yeah.” Alec reached down and pulled out his phone from his pocket.

At first glance, it was a basic attic. Lose installation was laying across the entire floor but so were many cardboard boxes. No eyes. greeted me so that made me feel better. I did not want to come face to face with a bat.
“I’m going in.” I told Alec.
“Do you have to?” Alec groaned but it fell on deaf ears. He knew I was going to do this regardless.
“Yes.”
