My heart wanted to jump out of my chest but my wolf kept it calm. Each slow beat was like another piece of rope, holdingback
from just running in there to get Penny.
“Penny?” I tried again in the mind-link.
“Colt?” Penny’s voice sounded surprised and like she was getting ready to cry.
“Don’t let them know you are talking to me. Stay strong. What is going on? Where are you?” “I don’t know!” Penny sounded like
she was holding back tears. Both relief and pure panic fought for a dominate position in her emotional system. “I am in labor! I-I
have a nurse witha-and the doctor just left.” “Penny is in labor.” My wolf whispered to Alec and Carson.
Both of them looked atinstantly. “What?” Alec clarified.
“Colt is speaking with her in the mind-link. She is here and in labor.” Alec and Carson looked at eachother. Their expressions
hardened but otherwise they didn’t give anything away. “The complicates things.” Carson grabbed his earpiece. “Status report?”
“Changing now.” We heard back.
“Penny, do you know where you are at?” I pushed again for any information. “I need you to focus. I’m here to get you but I need
your help.” “I don’t. I’m in a room with a livingroom and bedrooms. There is a kitchen too.” It sounded like she was trying to pull
herself together.
“She’s in a suite.” My wolf told them.
“Penny, I love you. Take a deep breath and focus. We are coming for you. Don’t raise suspicion be ready. I need for you to stay
strong for me. Can you do that?” “Yes. For you and for our babies.” It sounded like a little whimper escaped but she quickly
pushed it down and the determination fueled her.
“I need to focus but I’ll keep this link open in case.” I said as I watched the warrior walk out of the forest. “Okay. Please hurry, I’ll
be ready.” “Get ready.” Carson moved so he was in a better position to jump off the tree. “Don’t raise suspicion.” He warned his
men. All of them were now walking towards the door. The other not in uniform quickly jetted behind the trash bins.
The one in his uniform, I watched lite a cigarette and just stand there with his back turned. “Still fucking smoking?” A guy cout
yelling and tossing his hands in the air.
Our guy pulled out a white cloth and when the guy tried to turn him, he quickly put the cloth over his mouth and drug him behind
the trash. A second later, he cback out and stood with his back turned and kept smoking like nothing happened.
Again, someone cout to yell at him and he quickly put the cloth over their mouth and drug him. About five minutes later, they all
cout wearing a little too small cleaning uniforms. With their hats pulled down low, they grabbed ssupplies and walked into the
casino.
“Everyone hold. Group one penetrated and in route to security room.” Carson whispered.
A few minutes later, we got a response. “In position for Anthony.” That was it, everyone was in position. Now it was a waiting
game. Everyone was dead quiet as we listened to their coordinate with each other.
“Someone’s coming! In here!” First guy whispered loudly and then there was sshuffling before we heard a quiet click. There was
voices in the distance but I couldn’t make out what they were saying.
“Stairs are around the corner. Rags ready?” Another guys said. My wolf could care less who said said but he was inching for
them to hurry up.
“Let’s go!” Another person whispered.
We were met with more shuffling. There was a little groan at one point. “Shit!” Someone yelled and there was a little scream
before it was quickly silenced.
“Burt? Was that you?” I heard someone yell in the distance.
“Just slipped!” On of our guys tried to yell back like he was Burt.
“Slipped?” Shit, he didn’t go for it! At this point, all I could do was focus all my attention on listening to this. Since I was inside my
own head, it sounded like surround sound. My wolf was hearing it from his right ear but to me, it sounded like it cfrom
everywhere.
“Fucking damnit!” Someone groaned and then there was a struggle before we heard a door open and close.
“He is one of Joe’s guards!” “Well, he’s dead now. We need to keep moving!” Something heavy fell to the floor with a thud.
“That won’t go unnoticed for very long.” Visit englishto read full content.
“Probably not.” There was a small click and more shuffling as I assumed they kept I kept maying. Morm doors opened and
closed. Picturing them in my mind, they were on the hallway we assumed was where the security room was at.
“It’s not here.” Someone reported back to Carson.
“Fuck.” Carson closed his eyes, trying to remember the layout.
“Go back up one floor.” Alec spoke up for the first time, telling his men where to go. “There was a utility room on the layout.
Maybe that is the security room.” “That’s also the floor that Joe has his office.” Carson whispered.
Alec frowned. “I know but it isn’t on the bottom level. The other alternative is if the security room is on the main level.” “Let’s hope
not.” Carson nodded in agreement. “Stay to the shadows, you can’t be seen.” He said to the men.
“Going dark.” Alec’s men used this to tell us they will not be able to talk for stime. It meant there were people around and any
noise could be heard, giving away their position.
As we waited, a limo pulled up to the back entrance. A swarm of warriors cout ina fcasino and stood They created an aisle for
whoever was in the limo to walk through.
Someone more professionally looking walked out and opened their car door. “Sir Joe! Sir Vin! I’m glad you made it here safely!”
He said as Joe and Vin stepped out.
