Run Like You Mean It (Berlin wolves series)

Chapter 20

~~~Alec's POV~~

 I was cautious with him as we made our way back to the room. I could hear Rylee and Lia yelling and laughing from the room and I smiled to myself at how ridiculous they sounded. I opened the door and Lia was jumping over the couch while Rylee was if front of her running away from Derek. As soon as Lia touched the ground Derek came and tackled her and I cleared my throat. They all looked up at me with worries eyes.

   "What is he doing here?" Rylee asked sticking her head out of the bedroom.

"He has some information he would like to share with us," I said glancing at Lia who ad her arms pinned behind her back by Derek.

   "Derek get off of me or I will kick you where the sun don't shine," She said looking over her shoulder at him.

  His face got pale and he let go. Lia stood up and brushed off her shirt.

     "What kind of information?" She asked the Sentanial.

"It's about the Hunters," He replied.

      "What's your name?" Rylee asked.

"I am Dimitri," He said looking not at Rylee but at Lia.

     "I'm Lia," My mate said.

"I know who you are. The Hunters are about 3 hours from here at a campsite. Some of my men and I heard them talking about you. We have seen you before. Running from here to there trying to escape them. They have a plan. They know you are here, and they will ambush you the moment you leave," Dimitri told us.

   "So we get them on a surprise attack. We get to them before they get to us," Lia said sitting in one of the stools at the counter.

    "That would be the most logical thing to do. Plus you will have the numbers over them when my army joins you," He said.

  "Why would you risk your lives to help us?" I asked him.

      "You are not the only creatures the Hunters kill and capture. We have been tortured by them for many decades. We would like nothing more than to get rid of them once and for all," Dimitri stated.

    "Then we need a battle plan," Derek said smiling.

~~Lia's POV~~~

     "Then we need a battle plan," Derek said smiling like an idiot.

"We better get everyone. Can we meet you out back in the trees in like five minutes?" I asked Dimitri.

    "Yes. I will be waiting," He said opening the sliding door and taking off.

  We left our room and knocked on every door on that floor to get everyone. We were shouting and telling everyone to be outside downstairs in five minutes. In a shorter amount of time than that everyone was in the woods clearing dressed and ready to go. I turned to the trees.

  "Dimitri!" I yelled.

  He swooped in with about fifty other Sentanials and smiled.

    "You called," He said.

 "We are all here. We need to make a battle plan," I said turning to face the pack.

     "My name is Dimirti. I do not wish to hurt you I only seek to help. The Hunters, are three hours away from here and they are planning to ambush you the moment you leave. But we will have the upper hand. We have the numbers and the element of surprise," Dimitri said.

     "Well we're going to need a map," Brian said.

After that I didn't really pay attention much. I know I should have been listening but it was all too boring. I announced a couple minutes later I was going to go scope out the area. Rylee volunteered to come with me. I ran in my wolf form most of the way with Rylee on my back, but as we got closer to their campsite I shifted back.

  "Where are they?" Rylee asked me after we didn't see anyone around.

     We quietly made our way around the outside of the camp. We were careful to be quiet in case they were around. That's when we heard loud shouts coming from a nearby building. Rylee and I walked up and peeked inside; careful to stay hidden. It was Scar and his band of misfits.

   "We will have the element of surprise tonight.  They have no idea we are coming. They have no idea we are one step ahead of them. We will take them down one by one. But I must tell you, leave the girls Lia and Rylee alone! They are mine. Rylee's mother had promised that if I can get her daughter home safely, I can have Lia to torture and kill. We will attack from the west. The south team will only intervene if things go wrong. The north team will come around the back and strike from there while they are distracted with us. We will kill. them. all," Mr. Scar said raising his voice at the end.

  A ring of cheers sounded from everyone in the tent. And Rylee and I made our escape when we saw they were coming out. I sprinted as fast as I could in wolf form with Rylee on my back. We made it back to the hotel in time to tell everyone what was going on.

  "Guys!" I yelled shifting back.

"Where have you been. I was looking for you," Alec said coming up to me.

    "I have to tell you guys something!" I yelled at everyone as they started to walk away from us.

"They're coming!" I yelled.

   "We already knew that," I heard someone say.

"They are coming tonight!," I yelled and at that everyone was silent.
