Chapter 0497
We have been on the road for a few hours now. Alec was driving our SUV but there wasn’t very many men in this one. This one had all the medical supplies that Penny might need. There was items for the babies but I was praying hard that we wouldn’t need them. There was only one person that was going to be directly behind me that wasn’t from Alec, mine or Carson’s pack. He was actually from Lars’s pack and he was a trained doctor. His fighting still were still top notch but if Penny or anyone needed medical, he would be here for it.
with the risk of Penny or the babies needing medical attention, I was not someone that should be driving. So, 1 got to sit in the passenger seal and
shift constantly with anxiety. More than once, Alec swatted my hand as it was tapping on the center consol. My wolf was ready.
Since this was so high profile and we had no way of knowing what kind of security they will have, we were going to be parking a ways away and walk in.
However, there was an hour difference between when we were schedule to arrive and when the last of the team was in position.
Jace was going to be control of the command center. If we needed immediate extraction, he was the man for the job. If Grand Theft Auto was real, he would be the main character.
So, as we pulled up to our base, it was good to see him telling people what do it and where to go.
On top of the hill was a little breezy but it had a great visual to the railroad tracks and even a few of the building in the distance. A few group of men took off running in different directions as I walked up to Jace.
“We are on schedule. Here is your ear piece and a few other fun items.” Jace pushed a bottle of chloroform, a rag and few grenades.
“Thanks.” Jace did a double take. I was no longer in control. My wolf forced his way in and there was no stopping him. He needed this and as much as I wanted to be the one to do it, he was the man for the job. Nothing will keep him from getting his mate.
“Ready?” Alec asked from behind me.
“Let's go.” Alec did a double take as well but didn’t seem surprised. He actually seemed pleased as he followed behind me as I passed him.
“Let’s head out!” Alec commanded. I didn’t bother to turn around and look behind me. I knew they would be falling into line.
As we got into the trees, an eerie quiet fell around me. The sun was fading behind the trees but the usual nighttime animals were not making their usual sounds. Every sense my wolf had was in tune to what was going on around us. There wasn’t an danger in front of us, we were the danger.
The animals sensed us and realized the danger we brought with us. The realization made me smirk. With each step, my mouth watered, my
adrenaline fueled my heart. They were going to die tonight.
Our footsteps barely made any sounds so when I heard a finger snap behind me, my body instantly froze. It was like watching a movie through my own eyes as my wolf turned my head to look at who it was.
Alec was looking through some binoculars. Looking into the trees, he took a few steps and then moved behind a tree. Lowering the binoculars, he signaled. Cameras. We were now close enough to security
cameras to be seen. Since there was so many of us and it would be next to impossible to move around them, one by one, we were going to climb.
The thing about cameras was, they only put them so high up. No one
thought to add more on the tops of the trees because you would get nothing but alerts on birds. The forest was thick enough that we would be able to jump from tree to tree.
Being a wolf had its advantages. Bring my claws out, my wolf climbed the tree and easily made it to the thickest branch. Walking to the end, he was able to step across to another branch.
One by one, they followed my back.
Avoiding multiple camera and any other traps that were set out. The pleasure of knowing we were out thinking them only fueled me more.
The closer and closer we got, the louder the voices and music became.
Drunk people yelling and cussing
echoed across the forest. Even the quiet birds flew off from their noise. noveldrama
Each time the door opened, the sounds of slot machines and money guided my path.
“Hurry up, Ken! We don’t fucking have all night!” A vendor was yelling at his help. The name, Instant Clean, was dripping down his van. multiple people in uniforms were walking in and our with massive hoses.
«1 think we found our way in.” One of the men whispered.
The van’s back door was opened and I could see a hose running from within it to an opened service door on the back of the casino. Multiple people were coming in and out. Some dumping trash, others with the cleaning service and some just on their breaks, smoking ]
a cigarette.
“Go around to the other side. This side is too open.” Alec whispered. N They didn’t answer but they didn ‘t need to. Silently, they fell into the darkness as they made their way around. With staying on top of the trees, it was going to take a few minutes for them to get ready.
“Hank in position. Train is currently stationed and not moving.” Hank checked in.
«still thirty minutes out for Anthony.” “Stand by for breech for Alec.” Alec whispered.
“Fuck you! I don’t need this!” I watched as a member of the cleaning staff threw something into the van. He
pulled out a cigarette and lit it as he walked into the forest.
