FreeNovelChapter 0325 Lila’s POV r “I just got off the phone with my school and they excused me from my first classes tomorrow,” I said, walking back into Enzo’s office.
Ethan and Jack stood in the middle of the office, both pacing back and forth with worrisome expressions.
“What’s going on?” I asked, staring around at the three men.
“What's going on is Enzo wanting to just run into Paul’s not-so-secret hideout without an actual plan,” Jack said, rolling his eyes and folding his arms across his chest.
“We need to think of a way of getting safely in and out,” Ethan exclaimed.
“I’ll present myself to him and he will let Enzo’s mom go,” I said as I walked toward Enzo sitting behind his desk.
He didn’t look pleased with my response.
“We aren’t doing that,” Enzo said, grabbing my hand and pulling me onto his lap.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe held me tightly against him, wrapping his arms strongly around my waist. I felt his warmth as he kissed the back of my neck, nuzzling his nose into me and taking me in.
“I’m getting her back without putting you in danger,” Enzo told me; then he looked at Jack. “Get the warriors ready.
We are attacking.”
My stomach clenched.
“You are going to get yourself killed,” 1 said, standing up quickly. “Are you insane?” “I refuse to sit around and do nothing,” Enzo growled walking toward the doorway.
“We need a better plan,” I said, shaking my head. “I think this is a bad idea and a complete suicide mission.” “How are we going to get in the doors of his hideout?” Ethan asked, making Enzo freeze.
They couldn’t attack if they couldn’t get in. Enzo’s eyes flickered over to me.
“They will open the door if Lila is there,” Enzo said. I won't let her go
inside though and another warrior will be keeping watch of her.” I'wanted to protest against Enzo putting himself in danger, but I knew it wouldn’t do any good. He was going to do what he wanted to do anyway. I sucked in a sharp breath and nodded, agreeing to the plan.
As soon as we reached outside, we shifted and ran in the direction of Paul’s hideout which wasn’t far past the North border.
All the gamma warriors surrounded us as we ran through the forest. I felt Val being energized by the moonlight.
“I feel our mate’s energy,” Val breathed, and I could tell she was on top of the moon. Being with our mate was all she’d ever wanted and now I could finally provide that for her.
We broke through the forest and entered rogue territory. Almost right away the aura around the atmosphere changed drastically leaving an uncomfortable shiver down my spine.
Paul’s hideout was nothing more than a rundown warehouse-looking building and the only indication of anyone being there were the few cars that sat out front.
“She’s inside,” Enzo said from the front of everybody in a low growl.
“Their car is there too” Ethan pointed out through the mindlink.
He went toward the main entrance, and I followed behind with Ethan and Jack, Paul and his crew needed to see me in order to open those doors.
Enzo growled loudly, his growl loud enough to shake the earth. it worked to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmget their attention; the door was opening a couple of dark-looking wolves stepped out of the hideout, They kept their heads lowered as if they were going to attack at any moment.
“Where’s Paul?” Enzo growled, impatience running through him.
“Give us the girl and we will let your mother go,” one of the wolves growled.
“That’s the one... I can sense smell her,” the other wolf said, his yellow eyes darting in my direction.
Enzo stepped in front of me, blocking their view of me.
“My mother first,” he said in a low and threatening tone.
“That’s not how this is going to work,”
ho rade, of the wolf said, growling loudly. Without warning, he lunged at Enzo.
Enzo lunged back. i These wolves weren't nearly as big as Enzo; I knew Enzo could take them easily. Even without Jack and Ethan’s help. it was what was waiting on the inside of that building that worried me the most.
I was told to stand back and out of sight by countless warriors who shielded me from the attack. It was me they were after and everyone there had sworn to Enzo to keep me safe.
I could no longer see what was happening in front of me and panic began to set.
“Let me through!” I pleaded to the warriors.
Enzo’s voice got more distant and soon the warriors were shielding me and running into the building after Enzo, Ethan, and Jack. Only a couple of warriors stayed behind, I’m assuming on Enzo’s orders.
