Tattooed Luna by Mrs Smith

Chapter 0386
“Penny!” Colt’s voice came from somewhere but I was focused on the dead man on the floor. “Look at me!”
Sparks ran across my face as Colt grabbed me and forced me to look at him. “W-what?”
“Are you okay?”
“Oh, yeah.” I said as I snapped out of my head. “I don’t know I have seen someone kill someone before. I’ve seen dead bodies, of course but not them actually get killed.”
“Is she going into shock?” I heard Alec asked.
“Penny?” Colt cupped my face and stepped in front of the dead man.
“I-“My mouth moved a few times but nothing came out.
“It’s okay.” Colt said. “JACOB!”
“Right here.”
“What happened?” Alec asked.
“Emmy left to pump or something and Penny said someti seeing some girls in the hallway? She took off after them and couldn’t get her to come back. That is when we ran into the held her back as we overheard them plotting to kill you by injec poison and inject Penny with something to put her to sleep to ki
her.”

“Did you get the girls?” I asked, looking at them. Three pairs of ey
looked down at me.
“We did. They are being transferred to my cells.” Alec said.
“Was it much of a disturbance?”
“Minor but we were able to keep it mostly quiet.” Jacob looked at Alec
and Colt.
“Good. Alec, this ceremony is for you too. I don’t want people to know something just happened. Jacob can escort me back to our table. Alec and go forward like nothing happened and Colt can join us when this is all settled.”
Colt and Alec shared looks before nodding. “Okay. We can do it that way.” Colt said. “Are you okay?” He looked down at me and put his arm on my shoulder.
“I’m not a child.” I said, instantly annoyed. Shrugging off his hand, I turned to walk back to the party.
“I got it.” I heard Jacob say before he took off after me. My emotions were all over the place but I couldn’t really figure out why. I didn’t want to be angry but I was. Men tally, I know Colt wasn’t treating me like a child so why did I get angry fast? Was that the pregnancy? That would explain what was going on with Emmy.
Thankfully, no one was at our table when we got back to it. “Penny, seriously, are you okay?” Jacob asked very quietly as I took my seat. He sat in Colt’s chair and put his arms on either side of me. If someone didn’t know us, they might think this was inappropriate.
“I think so.” Picking up my lemonade, I really wished this was stronger as I sipped it down.
“Do you need a doctor? Is the baby okay?” Jacob pushed.
“Jacob, I need some quiet time.” Putting my elbows on the table, my head rested against them.
“Who did this?” Jacob grabbed my arm and twisted it. Wanting to see what he saw, I looked over and noticed I was right. There was finger
“That was quick.” I said and shrugged it off.
“Who did it?” He asked again.
“The guard that you handed me too. I probably have it on the other arm as well. It isn’t a big deal, they did save my life.”
“Penny! Are you okay?” Kris came up to me in a hurry. Jacob backed off and Kris sat on my other side. She barely even noticed Jacob.
“I’m fire. Honestly just trying to wrap my head around it.”
“Is there anything you need?” Kris asked me, more urgently.
“I honestly don’t know what I need. Maybe once I rested.”
“You look really pale.” Kris looked at me worriedly.
