Chapter 0556 After changing into sweats, Alec carried me down stairs. The basement was like another living area. With three couches circling around the 85 inch television, there was a completely separate office area. Since we planned ahead, that office is completely soundproof and doubles as a panic room. Since it has multiple couches that pull out into beds, it was ideal for all of the alphas to come together and have a private meeting.

Alec placed me on one of the couches and moved the ottoman over for me to keep my foot raised. Just as he was putting some ice on it, the door bell rang. “I'll be right back.” The anger was still stewing inside him but I just felt numb.

“She wanted to stay home with the kids.” He sat down next me to. “Treally am sorry. I honestly thought she was dead.” “That isn’t the worrisome part. The fact that Anthony got into your cells and staged her death. Just for the dramatic affect of walking down the aisle for the luna ceremony.” Colt looked down and nodded as I just laid out my only concern. It wasn’t his fault and even if he had known that wasn’t her, the outcome wouldn’t have changed. “What could she want?” “My guess is the money.” I said as Carson, Hank and Alec all walked into the room.

She might be able to say that she is owed something since she didn’t see the money.” Colt
