Chapter 0583

One by one, we filed into the lounge room. Jace had multiple massive dark brown leather couches that circled around a massive coffee table. The only opening had an equally large fireplace.

The stone that bordered the fire appeared to be original as well. A small fire was crackling but it was the wall to ceiling windows that caught my attention. The over look of the mountain side was breath taking. The tree tops were sparkling with a fresh layer of snow, untouched by human hands.

“Okay, from what I gathered, Ann and Anthony have been working with rogues. However, the blood that was found at Alec and Kristen's cabin was from a dead man.” Colt slapped down a

couple folders. It was physically painful to walk away from the window and back to the group discussion.

“How did she manage to make it out alive?” Lars asked.

“She was in the hot tub when she realized she wasn’t alone. She made her way to the bedroom and used the door to keep them from flanking her.

Eventually, she was forced to jump out the window.” Sitting down, I pushed away the pictures of our tainted cabin. “She’s lucky to be alive. Look at his rap sheet.” Colt pulled out one of the two dead man’s files.

Jace walked over with four whiskeys on the rocks. “It said that Anthony had registered him as dead. We can assume that everyone he listed is not dead but

his own personal army.” Taking one, I just leaned back and listened. If it was up to me, I would just storm the place or drop an Atom bomb on it. However, that would kill too many innocent lives. However, itis fun to think about.

“These are all specialized warriors.

Taking them out will be challenging.” Lars looked at the paper.

«Jce hasn't trained in over 6 months and took two out. I don’t want to underestimate them but they are also just men. We are just as trained.” Colt frowned.

“Kirsten isn’t a normal person either.

Your dad make sure of that. However, that is besides the point. What is our next move?” Lars asked.

Jace got a rather large smile on his face. “There is this bar that is between the packs. I have someone I use, and have scheduled a meeting with for tonight. Though, this is what Tam purposing.” © Jace handed us each a folder. We all took a moment to look it over. On the first page, it was a rough estimate of their pack’s layout but what was highlighted was their water system.

The next paper was their air conditioning system and access points from their pack house. Since we were once allies, we do have a unique acknowledgment of his floor plan.

«What is this man going to do for us tonight?” Lars asked. He didn’t look up at his folder as he asked the group.

«He has some supplies we are going to

need.” Jace looked around, making sure everyone was paying attention.

Once he had all eyes on him, he continued. “It’s not like we can poison everyone as they are all innocent but we can put leaks in the pipes, place mold and other things around their air conditioning so let’s say the state comes to inspect and they have to quarantine everything...” “That’s good.” Lars said.

Jace made eye contact with me. “Alec?” Everyone looked over at me. “That’s good and all but T'want blood. They tried to kill Kristen and making them live in a hotel isn’t going to cut it.” «1 understand that but we need to play the long game here. There are some pack members that work in public

places from his pack. Rumor has it that Ann and their new direction is very unpopular. We need a few eyes on the inside so we will need to visit them and see who we can get on our side.” “So, what is the end game? Are we looking at eliminating his pack? Are we going to use give them a headache? What is our ultimate goal here?” Colt asked the group.

No one spoke for a moment. “That is really up to Alec. It was his family that got attacked. What do you want? It’s Kristen who she wronged. Yeah, Colt, you are in there but itis Kristen she targeted.” [ was quiet for a long moment. All the times I saw Kristen bleed, all the time she has been bruised, hurt and emotionally struggling because of Ann

just flashed before my eyes. “This doesn’t end until Ann is dead. Kristen isn’t going to be a peace knowing Ann is out there. Until Ann is dead, I'm not done. Whatever that means for the pack and for Anthony... itis what itis.” “J agree. Ann needs to die and if that means to eliminate the pack... I guess Jace is going to get more land.” «1t would be your land.” Jace looked shocked.

“I might keep a chunk for myself but we have more land than we know what to do with.” I didn’t want the land. I wanted Ann dead.

“We can finalize details after but are we in agreement?” Colt asked Lars and Jace.

They looked at each other before looking at us. “Count us in. I'll go call Carson and Hank and fill them in.” Jace stood up and walked out of the room.

Colt and Lars started talking about different option on ways to get into the pack. Standing up, I went back to the window. This was a different kind of peace that I wanted some of. I'd defiantly be keeping a piece just for myself for vacation but I didn’t want to own all of this. My responsibility is to my pack. To Kristen. All my energy will be put into ending Ann’s life. If that means war against Anthony, then so be it. Kristen will never know fear again. noveldrama

The door opened as Jace walked back in. “They are in. We should get ready to leave in a few hours. The fun is about to

start.”
