I am truly sorry for updating this late! Please forgive me! It just that recently I've been very busy with work and now I'm lacking iron which made me extra tired so I procrastinated my update. 

But anyways, here is chapter 72 and I might add more chapters to this story. I don't want it to end yet!

Song up there is "Battlefield" by Jane Zhang. It's a song from The Great Wall, I personally think this song fits the chapter and also because I love the movie!

Allison's pov:

     I stay low behind the bushes as everyone else is in their position. After the trackers managed to come back with news about Scarlett's whereabouts, we immediately set into action to find the abandoned packhouse far in the no man's land.

     And when we all finally arrived here, I ordered everyone to follow the plan. My plan is to surround them in all directions. I would have Xavier's men attack first since they have guns. And the ones with snipers would stay in the trees or anywhere. Then I would have people attacking in waves while Victoria and her witches cast spells from behind.

     I made sure to keep Lucy back home with Raya watching her more to her dismay. I don't need a pregnant Lucy to be fighting. She could get hurt and who knows maybe in the middle of the battle, her water breaks, plus Xavier would be worried if she was fighting.

     Just yesterday, Victoria revealed that there are more blue diamonds existing. Now she has the cave full of them sealed and guarded just in case anybody would try and get them. I don't know how they failed to destroy them long ago, but I believed that blue diamonds would never be able to be destroyed. If they can be easily destroyed, then Scarlett could've gotten out of here long ago.

     Looking around, I made sure that everyone is in position. We all are in cover and didn't make any noises. We were a good distance away so the rogues wouldn't be able to smell us. There are no sounds. The forest was quiet, not even the sounds of little animals scurrying along the floor could be heard.

     It is as like they could tell that something bad is going to happen. 

     Royal is laying on his belly beside me. He is the only one that can lead us here without trouble. His eyes watched the guards outside the building, following them as groups of guards walked around with guns and dressed in black suits.

     I watched as someone unlocked the door by pressing some codes before going inside with a tray full of food in his hands.

     We waited for a few more minutes and the same guy came out with an empty tray. He walked over to another house that is slightly bigger. The houses are in a bad shape, the walls were covered in vines and there are holes or cracks evident in the walls. The windows are cracked and dirty with no curtains. Overall everything doesn't look inhabitable, but Michael managed to make it work.

"We are going in a few" somebody suddenly said right behind me

     Jumping a little, I turned around to glare at whoever it was only to find Xavier crouching dressed in a gray suit.

"What are you doing here and not in your position?" 

"I tried calling you but you wouldn't answer so I thought I would find you instead" he shrugged

     Cursing a little he took his suit and throw it at the ground. Then rolling his shirt to his elbows he untied his tie and threw it on the ground too
