NovelEnglishChapter 0478 VALERIE.
The moment I peek out, I realise that outside it is teeming with men in uniform, with weapons in their hands. Why would they call in the army? When we did nothing wrong? You don't need the military to deal with two werewolves - well, maybe you would if they are powerful, but this all feels too convenient.
How did they even manage to get so many people here? I mean, we are in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere with one police station! I narrow my eyes; it was all planned... I'm certain... ducking down, I take my phone out from where I had tucked it into my dress, but there's no signal. I put it onto airplane mode, not wanting it to ring and alert anyone if I get connection when I step outside.
Well, I'm heading outside regardless of what they want.
'Can anyone hear me? Anthony?' I frown as I try to mind-link.

'Don't worry, I'm going to get out there now. Focus on your surroundings, my Sexy Stallion. I know you got this, but I don't need you injured, I murmur before I slowly pry the window open.
'Why not? Why else would I have a doctor for a mate? I can afford to be careless.' His voice makes my heart skip a beat and I can't help but smile.
"Stop flirting and focus!" I scold, hearing him chuckle softly, My breath hitches and I feel giddy. Only Zade could flirt at such a moment.
Paying attention outside, I assess the situation. Now I just wait until it's the right moment....
I remain calm as I keep out of sight, waiting for the footsteps to ease up. I don't have long. Once they finish searching the rest of the guests, they'll realise I'm not there and will clooking for them.
Peeking out, I see the coast is clear and quickly stand up and slide the window open as silently as possible before I lift my dress and quickly squeeze out. I can see smen far off, but they're herding out the other guests.
Silently, I slide out and hurry down the side of the building, keeping to the shadows as I make my way towards the back of the building. I'll take the staff entrance, make my way through the storage room and to the small room where the main breaker box is and switch the electricity back on.
The faster I manage the better. I duck behind a flower bush near the side of the house and mute the phone, turning airplane mode off. Seeing the connection bars at the top, I quickly message on the group that we had to discuss the entire plan.
VALERIE: We were ambushed. They've called in the military, and Zade is in there dealing with Cassian right now. He is part of it. They've got something messing with phone signals inside and they've caused a blackout, which worriesas they know we can see in the dark. They are up to something. We need backup. Now. We are unable to contact anyone else from our pack. They were probably found.
I hit send, quickly forwarding the message to Adriana, too.
Staying alert, I hurry around the building, ducking when I see the group of men guarding the entrance. They aren't in military uniform, and they givea bad feeling. I stay out of sight and click on the button to record the aubefore putting it back into the band of my dress.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZade had made his plan clear and if I can record something by chance, then I will.
And I plan to put on a little act...
Taking a deep breath, I hurry around the corner. "Excuse me, I need to get inside. My friend is in there!" I exclaim, placing a fearful look on my face.
"She's one of them."
"Drop the act. You're the one we need to apprehend." One of them mutters, spunding irritated. "Who are you?" the largest asks, turning his gaze on me.
"You know who I am, but I don't know what you have against us... but I'm going to request you step aside," I state quietly, making sure my voice stays calm and level. "We've got her boss," one of them whispers, barely audible, but I hear him crystal clear.
"Keep her there. I'm coming myself." I don't recognise the voice, but I better move fast.
"And why would we step aside?"
"Because my friend who is inside is in danger, and for no good reason m everyone is ganging up on us." I make sure I'm clear.
