Chapter 411
“What is it?” I asked, a little nervous.
“Darin used to mark his… girls. They will have a rose tattoo on their shoulder blade if they were part of what it was he was doing.”
Jacob looked down at his feet and shifted uncomfortably. I’ve seen a few of those tattoos around but didn’t think much of it. “Thank you for telling me.” I said finally.
Sherry nodded and her and Jacob walked out of our office. “What happens now?” Penny asked.
“Not really sure. Continue to monitor their location and probably do some of my own recon. We have your luna ceremony Saturday. We really need to lay low until we have some evidence of an attack or a situation.”
“Do you think it is wise to still do a luna ceremony after what happened at Kris’s?”
“We are more prepared this time.”
“I thought you were prepared last time.” Penny narrowed her eyes at
me.
“Its’s under control.” I said and looked back at the tracking decide.
Kara POV
“Kara, wake up!” Gunther was shaking me. The more I tried to ignore. him, the harder he shook. “KARA!” He whispered urgently.
“What?” I tried to forget where I even was. The last 24 hours have been something of my nightmares. The fear of being injected with something that could not just pretend to kill me but actually kill me © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Now, I am in this abandoned shack. There is no blankets or anything. There was more holes in the walls than actual wood and it gets cold at night.
“They are here!” Gunther jumped out of the stained mattress and started pacing.
“They? As in Vin?” Lifting my head up, my frizzy hair got in the way of seeing him.
“Yes! Get up!” He whispered more urgently. Everything in my body. protested as I got up and straighten my clothes as much as possible.
“Where are they?” I whispered as Gunther looking in a few different
directions.
“Everywhere.” He said quietly. A cold chill fell over me. “Come on.” Gunther walked to the door and opened it. As soon as he did, I saw multiple men emerging from the trees. The sun was still rising so there was enough shadowing that I wasn’t sure how many where.
there.
“Gunther. How… surprising to see you. I watched your execution.” Vin stood in front of the yard with his hands folded in front of him.
“I’m just as surprised as you are.” Gunther walked out and I moved to the front door.
“I see your mate made it as well.” Vin narrowed his eyes at me.
“He used the same poison. Obviously he didn’t use the correct dose.” Gunther crossed his arms over his chest.
“So, I take it you are ready to come back into our ranks?” Vin asked. More and more men emerged from the trees.
“It is. We are wanting to stay in the shadows and help. Colt believes we are dead so we can use that to our advantage.”
“Well….” Thunder rolled in the distance. “Let’s move this conversation back to my home and we can discuss this further. Follow me.” Vin turned and started walking. Everything in my body told me not to follow him but Gunther walked up to me, took my arm and pulled me with me.
We walked for what felt like hours. The rain started to pour just within thirty minutes of our walk. No one spoke or moved out of formation. More than once, I turned to look at who was around me but Gunther kept making me look straight.
If it wasn’t for Gunther holding onto me, I would have eat so much dirt that it wouldn’t have been funny. Still, my ankle was starting to really throb. It was only when the grey sky started getting darker that I was just about at my limit when Vin suddenly spoke.
“Home sweet home.” He sang and raised his arms. This building in front of me was like a f ucking castle. Pack houses are generally very large but this was a whole new level. Everything was either black or covered in dirt. The vines were covering most of the castle but the dark windows the most unnerving part of the whole thing.
