Chapter 232

ZAIA.
I pull on my jacket, glancing at the unmade bed. Sebastian had left early and I’m. about to leave for
Dad’s pack.
Since I’ve awoken I feel uneasy. I know something isn’t right at Dad’s pack and
although I have taken every precaution possible, I still feel on edge.
Am I missing something vital?
I rush through a meeting with Mr Harrison. With everything going on, it’s been
exhausting but I can’t afford to lose the deal.
I text Dad telling him I’ll be there by noon, although I planned to get there sooner.
I’ve also left Sebastian a message telling him I’m leaving since his phone is switched
off.
“Alright guys, I’m off,” I say, poking my head through the door of Jai’s room. The kids are playing on the
carpet and Valerie is sitting on the bed beside Jai and they were
clearly mid–conversation.
Something’s changed between them, I can tell from the way Jai has his leg propped
up and Valerie is leaning ever so slightly against it.
I hope they have made some amendments. I truly hope so, they both deserve happiness, and I can tell
they love one another.
“Take care of yourself, Sebastian going with you?” Jai asks from where he’s leaning against the
headboard.
I shake my head. “No, I’ll have my guards and some of Atticus’s men,” I say as I enter
the room and kneel beside the kids, giving them both a kiss.
This time I didn’t even expect Sebastian to go with me… I guess I need to be more
independent, and he doesn’t seem to want to accompany me. I wonder why, but I’m
not brave enough to ask him… I just wish I had seen him once before I left.
He doesn’t realise just how much his presence gives me strength, how his simple words of
encouragement make me feel like I can take on the world.
Jai frowns but says nothing..
“Atticus isn’t either?” Valerie asks.
“No, he needs to handle security around both packs and make sure we are fully equipped. I’m hoping
Sebastian managed to get some stuff sorted, although I’m not
sure exactly what he’s working on.” I reply.
Hugging the children goodbye, I take my leave. Wondering exactly what Dad wanted
to talk about. He sounded…strange. I am on alert, but what if someone has gotten to
him?
up
I’ll be careful… I have a plan and one I hope gives me the upper hand if this ends
being some kind of trap. I will just need some help. Help from someone I really don’t
want to ask for help from, but I have no other option right now.
I now pull up on the corner of our previous home and look in the mirror. I’m wearing
a blond wig and have put on several additional layers of clothes. A cap and glasses,
just like our housekeeper.
Halfway here I had switched places with one of the female warriors of Atticus’s pack. She is now
travelling in my place towards this pack, and I came alone. I’m sure
all eyes will be on the cars and my guards whilst I find Dad unseen.
I had taken a shortcut in the small red car, passing through security with ease. I had
called Sebastian twice, but his phone was still switched off… I just wish he at least
called once…
With one final glance, I slowly get out of the car. Mom doesn’t know I’m coming, as I
couldn’t risk anyone knowing. I plan to go inside and ask Mom to call Dad and from
there, we’ll see what is going on.
I’ve dressed up similarly to the housekeeper and I’m praying the guards think I am
her. Getting out, I grab the large bags of groceries and bend over as if the bags weigh a lot; I pretend to
struggle as I walk towards the gate. Just how I have seen her do for
years.

There’s no guard at the gate so I key in the pin, trying not to worry. I scan my finger and when it beeps,
a wave of relief floods through me; I’m still in the system.
This is the only part I was worried about, getting through the gates.
The gate clicks open, and I step inside and spot two guards who seem to be on break as they hang
around looking bored near the entrance.
They glance at me but say nothing. I just unlocked the gate, of course, they won’t suspect me… As
long as they don’t check the system to see who just entered. Can I
trust them? I am not sure.
