Silva, what are you up to now?
Knowing my sister, she has her own plan cooked up in that crafty brain of hers. I just hope she stays safe.
“Stick close to me, baby,” Sloane warns. “Don’t be a hero, and don’t be a brat.”
“Yeah, yeah.” I wave him off.
“Lexi,” Aiden warns.
“What?” I whisper. “I’ll be good! Nowshhor you’re going to get us caught.”
I turn to Luna, who’s right next to me. “Alphas, am I right?”
She snickers. “Whatever you say, Lexi.” She pats my shoulder.
“Now who needs to keep quiet?” Sloane snarks back.
“You,” I hiss.
“Enough! Everyone, shut up and follow me,” he growls low.
I bite my lips closed and follow after him.
With every second that passes, I grow more and more anxious.
I nearly scream when a guard rounds the corner as we’re heading up the stairs to the first wing. Thankfully Aiden is on it, covering the man's mouth so he doesn’t make a sound as Sloane shoots him in the head, his gun hardly a whisper thanks to the silencer.
I try not to think about the dead man as we continue on.
When Sloane sees the hallway of doors, he sighs. “Let’s get to picking these locks.”
One by one, we break the locks open. With each scared Omega’s face, I feel a rush of relief. Once we have them all, we head to the next wing, each girl doing their best to help get the next set of locks open.
Unsurprisingly, we get the second wing unlocked to find more terrified young girls. It makes me fucking sick that he can do this and sleep at night.
We’re making quick work of the last set of doors when someone rounds the corner.I knew this was too easy.
In a panic, I jump to my feet, grab my knife, stabbing it into one of the guards' necks.
“Oh fuck,” I squeal.
“What's wrong?” Sloane asks.
“I killed him. I’m sorry. I panicked. He just popped up out of nowhere.” I look at him with wide eyes.
“It’s okay, Kitten. He’s the bad guy. That's the point.”
“Right.” I nod.
“Are you okay? Did he hurt you?” Aiden asks, checking me over.
“No.” I shake my head. “I’m fine.”
“We got everyone,” Emmett says. “We'd better get out of here now.”
“We did it.” I grin at Luna, nearly in tears. “We got them.”
“Yeah, Lex, we did.”
