Tattooed Luna

Chapter 0581 “All ready to go?” 5 Kristen was sitting on the floor, keeping Adalynn entertained while I . packed what I needed to go under cover. “Hope so.” I had multiple recording devices, trackers, smoke bombs, ammo, tactical gear, night vision options and much more. It all fit into my small to-go bag that was easily worn as a backpack. It has been convenient the last few times I’ve been in this situation and should be just as useful.

“Still not happy I'm not going.” Kristen glared at my gear like it was the enemy,

“T know but you are hurt and we can’t afford to wait. I want to make sure things are moving forward and do some of my own payback.” “T know. Just sucks. I wanted to be the one to pay her back.” Adalynn laughed as she rolled to the side. Kristen leaned over and started tickling her until Adalynn kicked her thigh, making Kristen yelp out in pain.

Leaning down, I picked up Adalynn to keep her from hurting Kristen more.

“Careful, little one. Momma is broken right now.” Adalynn laid her head on my shoulder. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“I’m okay...” Kristen had rolled to her back and was breathing heavily. Laying Adalynn down in her chest, Adalynn looked at Kristen and smiled, Giving

mommy big open mouth kisses to make it better. “Gross...” Kristen was smiling as she gave our daughter a kiss but dodged the slobber.

“She just loves you.” There was no hiding the humor in my voice as I * stepped over them both to get the suitcases.

“Pll take it without the drool.” Kristen laughed.

Since I had everything laid out in the bed, I was able to pack Kristen’s stuff and Adalynn’s in one bag and mine in another. The doorbell ran right as I finished zipping it up.

“I got it.” Rolling my eyes, Kristen tried to get up like she could answer it.

“I could have done it!” She yelled after

me.

“Sure, you could have.” Opening the door, Colt was standing off to the side on the phone. He nodded at me before tossing me the keys and walked off to keep talking. Two SUVs were in front of my house. I could see Penny had gotten out and was leaning in the back doing something.

Walking back inside, I found Kristen managed to get herself standing up.

She had a crutch to help her walk.

“Ready?” I asked before grabbing Adalynn.

“Yeah, let’s get in the car and then you can put the bags in.” Kristen started limping to the SUV.

“I could carry you,”

“Save that sexy talk for the bedroom.” It was all I could do but roll my eyes at her. As soon as we were outside, I stepped around her and . made my way to get Adalynn buckled up. Kristen slapped away my hand as I tried to help her up so I just went inside and grabbed the bags.

Adalynn had her own tiny house traveling with us and Kristen wasn’t much better but I was able to get it all packed by the time Kristen got situated and was ready to go.

“I had some scouts run the drive and it appears to be clear. We got a couple hours drive so if you need to pee, you need to do it now.” Colt looked directly at Kristen.

“I got an empty bottle!” Kristen stuck her tongue out at Colt.

“Gross. Glad she is your problem.” Colt smirked before winking at her and walking back to his SUV.

Shutting the doors, I got behind the wheel and started the engine. “Last chance, forget anything?” “I think I’m good.” Adjusting the mirror, I saw Kristen smiling at our daughter. She was tickling her, making her little laugh warm my heart.

“Alright, here we go.” Colt put a walkie talkie on the dash so we could communicate as we drove.

The whole drive was a few hours drive.

He was located more into the mountain range, making the scenery much more appealing, It spoke to my wolf more as

we went through the winding roads.

Every now and then, I would recognize warriors that were positioned discreetly along the drive. The sun was high in the sky, making everything illuminate our way.

Most of the drive was easy as Adalynn and Kristen took naps.

After a few snacks, Adalynn was done being in her car seat. Thankfully, we were just a few minutes away from Jace’s pack.

There was a welcoming party was as pulled into the territory. The large 12 foot iron fence towered over us as we were welcomed. Women and children were smiling and waving but it was Jace and Echo standing at the steps to the massive castle that put a smile on

my face.

The memories of coming here growing up was something I'll always cherish.

“We are here.” I told Kristen. She was busy trying to calm a fussy baby.

“Good. She wants out, badly.” Pulling into a parking spot, I was able to turn the car off and get around to get Adalynn out. As soon as she was in my arms, she calmed down. Her eyes scanned the area but she didn’t get shy, instead, she was waving a people.

Kristen took a little more time inching her way out of the SUV. I had to hold my arm out for her but thankfully, Jace came over to help.

“Need any help?” “Yes, please.” I was a little surprised

Kristen took Jace’s help as he helped her out and handed her, her crutch.

“Thanks. That ride was a little long.” “I bet. Echo has a late lunch set up and I think you will find it relaxing.” Jace motioned for Kristen to go first before helping me with our bags.

“Thanks, man.” «1 should thank you. This is going to be fun.” Jace slapped on me in the back as we walked in.

“Is that Miss Adalynn? Come here sweet girl!” Echo came forward and to my surprise, Adalynn lunged into her arms.

“That’s a first.” Kristen laughed at my expense,
