Chapter 5 Amoux and Accalia went about their morning routine as if the ice hadn’t broken and the box didn’t exist. There’s a melancholy between them, something lost they can never get back. “Dad, I want you to tell me about the town where Ernouf and his pack lives, I want to know everything about this town, I want to know this town inside out as if I was born and raised there” Accalia would need to know everything for her plan to work “I have already told you about Ernouf and his pack, as for the town, there is a book underneath my chair, which will tell you everything about the town, buildings, werewolf population, human population, which territory belongs to Ernouf, and which is neutral territory, basically will tell you everything” Amoux pointed towards his chair, which was surrounded by bunch of books Accalia walks towards the chair and begins rifling through the books, Amoux meanwhile straps the bow to his chest and grabs a quiver of bolts “ will you hunt with me” Amoux asked as he strode towards the door “I’ll stay, I need to finish my plan, and this book will help me greatly, you go ahead, once you come back , I will have the plan ready” Amoux hesitated by the door trying to think of a way to dissuade Accalia, but he knew it would be useless, there is no turning back, he just wished there was another way. Amoux leaves without saying another word. Accalia opens the book and begins reading, and memorizing the whole book. It would be easy for her, since she has a photogenic memory. After an hour of reading and re-reading the book, Accalia finally had her revenge plan ready. Accalia enter the kitchen area, she tends to boiling pots. She is cooking a feast. Amoux enters, he stamps his feet shedding ice at the door. “you were lucky to grab that deer, there was nothing out there today” Amoux comments as he looks over at the meal Accalia is preparing. He dips his finger into the pot scalding himself “ouch” “it’s hot” Amoux smiles at her. One of the few he has shown her. “I am really hungry, and it smells so good. Is it almost ready?” Amoux wraps as arm around her shoulder and looks into the pot. They don’t hug much and it shows. But Accalia is not going to let go first. She leans into his heavy coat, briefly and takes a deep breath. The smell from that giant coat. It wraps her all up and makes her feels like nothing in the whole wide world could ever hurt her. Amoux and Accalia sit down to have dinner, the last dinner for a while, Accalia waited until her father finished before telling him her plan “Dad about my plan, it's quite simple, I go to this town, pretend I am rogue who wants to join the pack, and once I have gained their trust, then I will kill the alpha, once he is dead, I will contact you and then we can live normal lives.” “the plan is too simple, anything could happen, they might just kill you for entering their territory” “yes I thought about that, so that’s why I am not going to their territory straight away, I will live on the human side of the town, also I will attend high school that is attended by supernatural as well as humans, and the best part is the high school is on neutral territory, so there would be no problem going to that school” I continued “I don’t know, it's still too dangerous, are you sure I can’t change your mind” “Dad, I know you are worried, but trust me, you have not raised a fool, you have trained me, and now the training will finally come in handy, I know I can do this” Amoux let out a long sigh filled with resignation; he knew it would be useless to argue. “fine, but if anything goes wrong, you get out of there immediately” “deal” ‘Remember, Adapt or die, think on your feet” “even when I am sleeping” I finished his sentence
