Tattooed Luna

“Tto wake up.” Someone shook me. Only blackness filled my vision but soon all the sounds of people opening car doors and slamming them shut confused me.

“We are here?” | tried to open my eyes but it was hard. The sun was too bright and | just wanted to go back to the blackness.

“Yeah. We are close, anyway.” Carson opened the door and got out. Leavingalone in the car to gather myself. Everything crushing back, making my heart fall. Still, my body was stiff as fuck. It was sneeded sleep but | needed another twenty-four hours. That wasn’t happening until Penny chome.

| wasn’t sure how long | sat there, gathering myself to wake up but by the tI got out, they were all laughing.

“What's so funny?” | said in a very gruff voice.

“Nothing. We figured you could visit the old man first and then we can make our way.” Carson started.

“Hank will stay with Nora and | will see what | can do about planting a listening device.” “Do you have ear pieces for us to talk?” | asked, trying to keep from yawning.

“Right here.” Hank pulled out a black box from his pocket, with a click, he opened it and offered it to us. Carson and | both took one and put it in our ears as Hank did the same. Nora shook her head, declining one.

“Nora, you should listen in case you have something to add.” Carson said a little more softly to her.

“Okay.” She was a little unsure as she took one with shaking hands. Hank had to help her put it in her ear but eventually she got there.

“So, no plan. Just go in and see what we can find out?” | asked as | looked into the forest. At this point, | was so familiar with this forest that | could walk it in my sleep.

“Pretty much. Don’t worry, it will make things more interesting.” Carson slapped onon the shoulder.

“I've had enough excitement for awhile.” Without waiting to see if they were ready, | just headed off into the direction | have done numerous times already.

Walking around fallen trees or even areas | knew there was ssort of trap, my blank mind ledto the old man’s cabin. Not even smoke was coming up from the chimney but his silhouette bounced between the windows.

“I'll hang back. Keep him busy in the house and I'll go down below.” Carson whispered in my ear.

“Beware of the cameras.” | said as | moved through the trees the sway | did last t| snuck up on him.

“Roger.” Carson had way too much excitement in his voice.

Shaking my head, | waited for the old man to walk out of his kitchen before | slipped in and sat down in the sseat as | did last time.

However, this time, he didn’t makewait before he climping back in. “You would like for the amount | paid you, you would be able to afford better living conditions.” | said, fully allowing my wolf to cto the surface. Up until now, | have kept him at bay but allowed him to show himself. Currently, | was letting him take charge.

The old man jumped in the air and turned at the stime. Clutching his head, he was breathing fast. “The actual fuck!” “I have to say, doing business with you hasn't been worth it.” Leaning forward, | let him see how black my eyes were when my wolf was present.

“Fuck...” He whispered. His eyes bounced around like he was looking for a weapon.

“Sit down. Let's talk.” Using my foot, | shoved his chair out for him. The sound of wood scraping against wood sent chills down my spine.

“Last t| talked to you, you fucking took the whole fucking convoy down!” He was picked. “Do you have any idea what that did to me?” “What did you expectto do? Wait till she was sold and then kidnap her? Makinggain another enemy in the process. How stupid are you?” My wolf had a bunch of anger he was trying to get out.

“I just assumed you would like stand in the street and take her. You killed Sir Joe Gambino’s men! Do you know who he is?” The old man didn't sit but stood there, glaring atlike he had any ground to argue on.

| have met him before. He knew my intentions and you knew them as well. Your job is to get TeRomtfor ney gave you too ch money for little information.

The way | see it, you can either givesomething else or | might just let it sleep how | knew about the convoy . + ” in the first place.” Please read the original content at english.net.

“Not like it matters when | don’t have any information to start with. | suggest you find something to interest me... and quickly.” “Got the auction site.” Carson said in my ear. It sounded like he was out of breath.

Until this is over, the actions are closed. Alpha want to just buy private » — now.”

The old man turned away from me, a clear sign he is lying. “You would lay down your life on that?” | asked, sitting back. It was fun to watch the sweat drop off his hair.

“Not like | have anything else to do now!” He slammed his fist down on the table.

“I want to see the auction site again. | want to make sure you aren’t hiding anyone in there.” “Fine.” He tried to stomp out the door with a limp but almost fell. Now Carson would have full access to his house.
