*A FEW DAYS LATER*
Carlo just came back from his business trip, today I get Lilly back. I thought to myself. I got up took a shower and got dressed inn a black shirt and a black jean. I called Clayton, “Are you ready to take Carlo out of the picture?” He asked. “No, I don’t know if killing him is a good idea.” I said. “It’s the only way we will get control and stop this war.” He explained. “That’s if I can convince Lilly to do her part.” I said in a worried tone. “It will be fine.” He said, trying to calm my nerves.”
I left my house and met Clayton at Carlo’s houses. We went inside and Carlo greeted us with a smile. We spoke about the meeting he attended; we knew we couldn’t make our move here. Everyone will know so we decided to do it when he went for his afternoon walk. We left his house and went to my place to get everything ready. At 17:00 we left for the woods. We saw Carlo go towards the river. We put on our masks and followed close enough to see him but far enough away so that he doesn’t see us. When he got close to the river we came out, I grabbed his arms, but he threw me over his shoulder. Clayton drew a gun out and held it to his head. “You’ll be banished for killing me.” He said. Clayton pulled the trigger and shot Carlo in the head. We berried the body and headed home.
I went to the dungeon. I opened the cell door, Lilly was still chained up, she looked so weak. I unchained her, I felt sparks as our hands touched how I missed that feeling. I picked her up in my arms and walked out. I put her in my car and headed home. I took her upstairs and put her in my bed. Her clothes were old and ripped so I put one of my shirts on her. It fitted her like a dress. I put on my boxers and got into bed next to her. I pulled her close, her body was freezing so I held her tight and fell asleep. For the first time in weeks I slept through the night.
Lilly POV
I heard footsteps coming towards the door. I’m too weak to transform and I’m struggling to keep my eyes open. The door opened and I feared that they would inject me with wolfbane again. I couldn’t take it anymore it felt like lava in my veins. I saw someone walking closer and I felt sparks as he touched my hand while unchaining me, I knew it was Michael. Darkness swallowed me as he picked me up. I woke up in a beautiful room, it was decorated red, black and white. I got up and saw I had no clothes on except a shirt that fit me like a dress. My head hurt so I sat down. The bathroom door opened and Michael walked in. he looked at me and smiled. “I’m glad to see your awake, you had me worried.” He said. “Yeah, where am I?” I asked. “You’re in my house.” He said. “Oh, may I please have some water and food?” I asked in a shy voice. “Follow me.” He said as he left the room. flowed him down stairs into a big kitchen. He made me food and gave me a glass of water with ice. He sat down next to me and said, “I need to explain everything that happened and ask you a favour.” He explained everything from my capture to killing Carlo. “I need you to help us get the werewolves to sign a peace treaty.” He said. “There’s no way Ruan will sign a peace treaty.” I explained. “Then we need someone in charge who will, this war has to end, it’s been too long and to many lives have been lost,” he said and I agreed. “I’ll talk to Emily she will be the next alpha when Ruan falls, she will want peace,” I explained.
I called Emily to arrange a meeting with me Clayton and Michael. We went to meet her by the river. Emily had black hair and blue eyes. She had on a white and black shirt and a jean.
(L is for Lilly, E is for Emily)
L: “Hello, Emily thank you for agreeing to meet us.”
E: “It’s not a problem. How can I help you?”
L: “Clayton here is the leader of the vampire clan; he wants to sign a peace treaty with us.”
E: “Ruan will not go for that.”
L: “We know that’s why he needs to be removed.”
E: “I’ll help you with this and sign your peace treaty. I never liked how he runs the pack.”
L: “Thank you, Emily.”
We went with Emily to her house to plan our attack on Ruan. We wanted to make sure everything would go down perfectly. Her house was small but big enough for 2 people. We sat down in her living room. It had a black leather couch and a flat screen tv. She brought us coffee, which we felt we would need, because it was going to be a long night. After we discussed the plan me, Clayton and Michael went home for the night. Tomorrow was the day we end the war.
The ride home was very long. I was so tired and couldn’t wait to get to bed. We got to Michael’s house and went inside. I was so tired after our meeting I almost fell up the stairs. I took a warm shower which was amazing because the air outside was freezing cold. I got our and put on a long sleeve wool top and pants. I got in bed and waited for Michael. He took a shower and got into bed too. As he got in next to me he said, “You just took a warm shower yet you feel like an ice cube.” I laughed and we drifter off to sleep.
