Chapter Twenty Seven

I just want to say thank you for helping me reach 10,000 reads guys. I didn't think I'd make it this far. I'm not sure how many chapters are left in my book but hopefully I'll be done soon for you all. 

Also, I'm sorry for the late update. I've recently been sick, and I had to put this chapter on hold. But, it's here now, and I'll try and update ASAP.

Enjoy!

By the way, I'm going to start putting songs on for every chapter to match the mood or pretty much the songs I think are cool and ones I like. Make sure you press play everytime!

This song is by Shane Harper, and it suits this chapter... it's called Wait For Me. Click Play!

*FIVE MONTHS LATER*

I watched as the snowflakes glistened across the green field, covering it up with it's beautiful blanket of white. The window condensed and I hugged myself more, sighing as the sun began to rise on another chilly December morning.

Today was Sunday, which meant that I would spend my day doing nothing but relaxing and speaking to no one. It had been just over five months since Dylan, Isaac, their mates and children and my mom had left; five months since I had been under the supervision of Michael Baxter. I'd spent most of my hours (unless I was at school) coming up with ways of defeating Dame and his pack, and so far all I could come up with was ripping his head off in his sleep. That wouldn't work though, because he has guards that stand outside of his room 24/7.

I knew that the only way I would defeat him, is to challenge him. And I'm not physically stable to do that. That's why I've been secretly training. Well, with the help of Sean my skills have been picking up and if my brothers were here, I'd be kicking there butts.

"Hey, I brought you some hot chocolate," Sean walked into the room with two brown mugs. Speaking of Sean, I think you could say that we're officially mated - or whatever it's called. Somehow, he'd wound his way into my heart and stolen it. We're inseparable now, and even Michael is starting to get sick of it. Sean knows what my plan is, and he doesn't mind, as long as Lily can come with us when we leave.

"Thanks," I smiled as he came and sat down beside me on the window ledge, passing me the mug. I took a sip and tilted my head back, looking outside.

"Are you going to go visit him today?" Sean said and I knew who he was talking about. Dad. I always went to see him on a weekly basis, but I haven't had time to this week with all of the training and school work I've had.

"Yeah. Will you come with me? I'm feeling a bit... emotional today," I looked at him.

"Sure, wanna go now?"

"Yeah, just let me put some warm clothes on."

"Hi, dad," I said, waving to the gravestone. I took a deep breath and rubbed my arms, trying to warm them up. Sean appeared behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist and resting his chin on top of my head.

"Mr Watson," he said, nodding his head before placing it back on my head.

"Do you think he's watching?" I whispered, specifically to Sean.

"Of course he's watching, he's always watching," I could tell he was smiling, trying to cheer me up.

"I don't know what to say," I whispered again.

"Tell him about the fighting and preparation, he'll want to hear that."

"Well... I'm much better now that I've gained all of my wolf strength. I... We are getting closer to killing Dame. I think we're aiming it for next week, right?" I looked up at my mate.

"Yeah."

We stopped talking then, just staring at my dads grave. After about seven minutes, I turned to look at Sean.

"We should go train now."

"Are you sure you want to do it today? I know Sundays are your days off," I smiled, noticing how he remembers every little detail about me.

"It's better to do it sooner then later," I stated, looking back at the house. The snowflakes fell in a peaceful way, gracefully landing onto the ground and moulding in with the snow.

We said our goodbyes to my dad, then wandered off into the depth of the forest that surrounded the pack house.

'Where are you two going?' Michael's voice filled my voice and I groaned, not wanting to talk to him.

'For a walk, dad,' Sean spat back, 'can't you understand that Holly isn't going to run away now?'

Dame didn't reply and my mind was empty as Sean and I strolled down the forest path until we reached the spot where we usually train.

"What's on the agenda today?" I asked him.

"Well, you're pretty good with fighting now. We just need to sort out your speed skills, and then we'll be ready."

"Do you not feel guilty?" I walked up to him and grabbed his hand softly.

"My father is a horrible person... I'd rather have him dead then alive. You don't need to keep asking me, Holly."

"I know. But if it was the other way around..."

"Your dad was a good person, you wouldn't of needed to do what we're going to do to my dad. Now shift, we're going to have a race."

"A race?" I scoffed, "you expect me to race you?"

"Come on," were Sean's last words before he shifted into his chocolate coloured wolf.

I copied him, shifting into my light brown wolf and whining a little. I hated being in my wolf form; she always takes over.

'Ready?' Sean asked, looking back at me. 

'No,' I simply replied.

'Go!'

"Your face; priceless." I smirked, pushing open the porch doors and heading for the kitchen. 

"How did you beat me?" Sean asked himself, shaking his head in disbelief whilst fixing his hair. 

We walked past the meeting hall and I overheard Michael's Alpha voice speaking. I stopped and rested my ear against the door, motioning for Sean to join me. 

'They're having a meeting without us,' Sean told me through our mind link and I nodded, shushing him.

"Ladies and gentleman," Michael carried on, "This is a very important meeting for our pack. Now as you know, two members do not know about this special gathering, and it is most defiantly important that they do not know anything that is said in this room," I looked at Sean and frowned. "Currently, Sean and Holly are on the outskirts of the house, being watched by our finest guards-"

'-Obviously not-' 

Sean's lips curled up as he heard what I said.

"In anyways, we have very big plans for these people. We all know that Holly was brought into this house to be held captive. However, I want her out. And I have a special job for all of my fellow pack members."

My mouth began to quiver as I looked at Sean, who instantly grabbed a hold of waist and pulled me into him in a protective manner.

"Kill her."
