Chapter 76

~Adela~

F**K!l What the f**k just happened? One minute I'm close to getting Landon back, and the next, I'm

hiding from my pack. I'm grateful that I have always kept a few warriors in my inner circle. I was

given a heads-up that they were tasked to find Aida and me and throw us in the cells. Can you

imagine me in the cells?!

I quietly run through the woods; I step over logs and twigs. If I land too heavily, I could make a

noise I don't want to make. I stop at the treeline and peer out to the land in front of me. It's empty,

and I can make a straight line to my destination. I need to make sure I'm quick enough not to get

caught. Getting caught will kill everything I have been working on, and I've put too much time in to

do that.

I take a deep breath and take off. My feet barely graze the ground underneath me. My lungs are

starting to burn, but I can't stop. I make it to my destination and pull the window up, praying that it

will give way. Luck is on my side tonight, and I'm grateful. I bet all of those years of training are

coming in handy with this task. I used to complain to Adela all the time about the training, but it

was useful in the end.

Adela......I miss her. My twin and I have been estranged for a while now, and I hate it. I just need to

do this, and once it's complete, I can be with my sister again. I'm doing this for us, and I know she'll

appreciate the effort.

I step through the window and head upstairs. I stop on the stairs to listen to my surroundings.

There's no noise, so I'm pretty sure that I'm alone. I slip into the room and take what I've come to

get. I head back downstairs and out the window, closing it behind me.

I set out across the land again. This location is going to be much harder, but I have to make it there.

“I know,” 1 whisper harshly. “I need to make it over there so I can get it. I don't need you hassling

me.” I swear I don't need to the backseat driving. I know what I'm doing.

My plan was almost foiled when I found out warriors were looking for me. I had to lay low for a few

days to gather a new plan. I just need to get through tonight successfully, and I can continue with

my original plan. “Would you shut the f**k up?! I got this, get out of my head!" I stop behind a tree

and listen. There is no noise, and I know I need to do this now, or my moment will be lost. I take a

look around to confirm that I'm alone. I quickly take off into the night. It's time to finish this and get

what's mine.
