Tattooed Luna

Chapter 236

“I will love you, old man. I hope to make you proud and accomplish all you hoped for me… for us.” Colt looked at me to see if I wanted to say anything. Slightly shaking my head no, he nodded and rested the torch on dad’s chest. His b*dy instantly erupted in flames. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Jacob brought over a larger Elm tree. After placing it in a hole, he used a shovel and finished planting it.” We will not be moving his ashes but allowing them to become one with the ground from which he died. This was dad’s wish.” Colt walked over and sat down beside Penny. Jacob sat in the second row, next to Sherry and his parents.

Everyone was quiet as we watched the ashes fly in the wind before sinking into the earth. A low rumble was heard in the distance, telling us a storm was coming. How perfect it would be to allow his b*dy to seep into the ground, really making him one with the earth as which we came from.

One by one, people got up and went back to their houses or safe location. Colt and I just sat there. Watching what little bit was left of our dad before the flames went out. Jacob got up and started digging a whole to put the rest of the bones that didn’t burn in the fire. After he was completely buried, did Colt stand up.

“Come on, sis.” Finally tearing my eyes away from the freshly dug grave, did I look at Colt. “I have a few things for you in

in my

office.” I just felt numb. It helped my dad wanted this but it still hurt.

Part of me wanted Alec to just carry me but my pride got in the way. Instead, I took his hand and stood up to follow Colt. My steps were much slower than Colt’s so I fell behind as we walked silently down the

hill

and to the packhouse. Alec never once tried to get me to walk quicker or even take control. He just stood

beside me and was my rock.

I wasn’t sure if it was out of habit or what but as we walked up the steps, my heart started pounding. More than once I had to remind myself that A nn wasn’t in here and I was finally safe here. I was safe to come

back and visit my brother. Visit my old pack, friends and any future kids they might have.

Colt left the office door open as him and Penny had arrived there minutes before we did. He was doing

something on the computer when we walked in. Penny was in one arm chair so I took the other. Alec

stood behind me as we waited to hear what my brother had to say.

Colt sighed and ran his fingers through his hair and down his face before looking at me. “Dad left you this

letter. He wrote it this morning.” Colt slid over a vanilla envelope that contained more than just paper.

“What else is in here?” I asked taking it.

“The key and a few other random things.” The string of pearls were still wrapped around my fingers.

Colt’s eyes landed on them. “Mom wore those on her luna ceremony. It took months for him to find those. He refused to put them in the envelope. Wanted to give them to you himself.”

“Can I see her house?” I asked, my voice was quiet but controlled.

“Of course you can.” Penny said. “I actually have some stuff I wanted to offer you. Since I have been there, keeping away from An n. I had went through the house and cleaned it. I’m guessing you already made the connection from the food that the cookbook was at your mother’s house. I made copies for you

but if you want the original… I would understand.”

It took me a minute to wrap my head around what she was saying. Part of me was annoyed she was offering me anything. It was all rightfully mine but dad did leave it to Colt in the will, including all the contents of it. She was probably thinking she was being nice and doing the right thing by offering stuff to

me. It was also that she picked out what she wanted before I even saw it.
