The Girl Who Cried Wolf

Ch. 20

    I stopped and dropped to my knees in tears. Justin bent down and scooped me into his arms to carry me back to the pack house. I held onto his T-shirt and cried into his chest the whole way. When we reached the house he played me on the couch and went to get an Aspirin for the headache caused by the tears. While he was in the kitchen someone pulled a blanket over me while sobs raked through my body uncontrollably. Justin returned and made me swallow the small pill. The words forever mine played over and over on replay in my head. I was getting him back.

    I awoke from my sleep to a lot of noise coming from down the hallway. I slowly stood and quietly padded down the hallway to the door where the noise was coming from. I distinctly heard Justin's voice arguing with another unfamiliar voice. I pushed open the door to see a tall, built man slightly older than us that had dark black hair and striking bright green eyes.

    "I'm sorry Luna we didn't mean to wake you." The man apologized.

    "I'm not Luna yet, and its fine there's business to do anyways. What were you two arguing about?" I asked.

    "Ali, this is Kyle, Alpha of a bordering pack. He's here to help get Carter back but we're having different opinions on how to do it." Justin explained.

    "I want to help." I stated.

    "Ali, Carter would kill me if he found out I let you even think about putting yourself in danger." Justin argued.

    "Well, Carter isn't here so I make decisions for myself right now." I told him firmly.

    "Fine. But if you get hurt you can bear the quilt of my death." He resigned.

    "What were you thinking?" Kyle spoke up.

    "We have a distraction group go ahead and act as the rescuers. While their fighting we have groups go outside of the perimeter and attack inward. While that's happening I sneak through and grab Carter. And we have to do it tonight before Johnathan kills him." I stated.
   
    Both boys jaws were open in shock.

    "Where did you learn that?!" Justin exclaimed.

    "We studied war tactics in my Modern Warfare class at my old school." I answered.

    "That just might work." Kyle stated in awe.

    "Can you get your pack here in 20 minutes?" I asked him.

    "I can have them here in 10." He stated proudly.

    "Great have them meet our pack in the meeting room." I told them both.

    "On it." They said in unison as they left the room to organize the packs.

    I was going to get him and wasn't leaving without him.
