Chapter 0239
“There are like twelve…”
“Yeah, grandma had eleven siblings. The women moved on with their mates. Penny has been trying to
track them down to see if we have any other family out there.”
“Did dad not know?” I looked at Colt.
“He wasn’t sure. It wasn’t a priority for him at the time and when things started falling into place, he had
to seal this place up so it would be safe.”
It was all I could do to nod. Things must have been really bad for him to felt the need to preserve this

The toilet was light blue and so was the tub. She had it decorated in a water theme with she-shells and

“Here is the master bedroom with on-suit and this is the stairs.” There was a door next to the bathroom
