Chapter 140
[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]
I wasn’t sure if I was doing it right.
I could still remember Brianne’s warning—that this would never be easy since I had to break into the house of someone who had hated me for all her life. I never expected that the item she wanted me to get was in the possession of the Bennettes. I knew where Olivia was living, but I wasn’t sure if the thing Brianne was talking about was being kept by Olivia or by her father, Richard.
“Remember,” Brianne said to me with a hand on my shoulder, and her eyes were grave and dark. “It will never be easy to break into their home, knowing that Olivia and Richard are both hiding secrets from the pack. There could be traps or powerful guards roaming around their place. You need to be careful.”
“I can do it. I have sneaked inside Olivia’s place many times before. It’s nothing new to me.” I said to her with a little shaken confidence. I knew the security in her place would never be as easy as before, but I believed I could do this. I had to.
“I can go with you.” Killian volunteered with determination on his face, but I saw the flash of worry in Brianne’s eyes. Killian must have felt it too, as he looked at her and held her hand to calm her down.
‘No.” I shook my head and smiled at the Alpha of the Moonstone pack. “I can do it, Killian. I need to do it alone. It will be faster if we don’t have to worry about each other’s backs. Besides, the Silver Crescent Council is also after you now. They must have already found out who broke into their dungeon and the culprit who set me free.”
Killian just smirked as if amused at what he heard, “Well, let them come, Samantha. You know I have always wanted to end those greedy people. I know Dominic will thank me for this.”
I raised an eyebrow at him. “Don’t provoke these people, Killian. You are not sure yet what they are capable of. They all want us dead, and I am scared for you and your people. This isn’t your war.”
Killian looked at Brianne with loving eyes and then at me with a smile. “You have been my friend for a very long time, Samantha. You know you are like a family to me. You, along with the twins, Brianne and I, will do everything to help you and Dominic. That’s what I promise you.”
