Chapter 98 I hope we cross paths again in the future.

making any sort of sound. “I unloaded a lot of their drugs and pills out here. There should be at least two on the outside that some idiots left earlier.” He whispered. She gripped his arm as they crouched to hide along the walls. He led them across the grounds and kept his eyes sharp on the guards that walked lazily around the fences. “How will we get out of this one, cousin?” Patrick hissed. William glared at him. “Since no one talked much where I worked, I watched the grounds. The guards never patrol all the areas at once. We’ll wait for the back to be cleared and lead the horses out quietly before we get on them.” Patrick nodded once and followed William’s lead. They crouched near a tall bush and watched as the guards pace the same area back and forth for about twenty minutes. She felt her legs start to give out until William gripped her without even looking at   her. As if he could sense her own pain. Ten more minutes passed and finally both guards nodded to each other and went around the building towards the front. The second they were out of sight, William pulled her up and hurried towards the horses. Just as William said, there were two brown ones tethered to the fence as if they were waiting for their owners to put them away. Doris frowned, it was the middle of the night. She doubted anyone was coming for them but it was better for them that they didn’t. William and Patrick quickly undid their ropes and led them out of the back gates and into the woods beyond. She almost fainted when the metal squeaked loud enough to wake the dead as she closed it. She hurried behind William and allowed him to lift her onto the horse the second they were far enough away from the place. “That was all an awful idea, we should have never went.” Patrick spat at the ground. He pulled himself up on his own horse just as

his door as hard as he could. Doris and Patrick went around to every other cabin to wake those inside and gather them in the courtyard. They shouted at her to tell them what was happening but all she could do was keep moving. She didn’t have time to explain to each person, she had to just get them up and out to the courtyard. Enzo looked as if he hadn’t even gone to sleep with how he well was dressed as if it were daytime. William must have already told him because his face was dead serious and it was like no hint of a smile had ever creased it. “Everyone!” He shouted over the murmuring. They silenced at once and crowded around him as he stood up on one of the logs around the fire that had long since gone out. “We don’t have much time. It seems we have a traitor in our mix and I don’t have time to sniff him or her out yet. Some of our own pack from Life Pharmacy is coming here to ambush us for allowing the royals to stay here—“  “What?!” Several people shouted. William appeared at her side and she suddenly felt a little less nervous when he was next to her. As crazy as that sounded. “I’m giving you all the option to leave and save yourselves, but I would appreciate if you stayed by my side while I try to sort this out.” “Sort this out? How many are coming?” Someone asked near the front. Panic was loud in their tones. “I’m not sure, it could be dozens or hundreds. I can’t guarantee this won’t tum messy but I don’t want a war to start in my own pack over this, I swear to try and sort this out before it turns into one..” “What are you going to do? Give them up?” Someone else asked him. William tensed at her side, she gripped his arm. “No. That’s not what we stand for. We stand for freedom and choices, not for torture and games. They’re chasing old shadows and I won’t have any part of it. I won’t
