Chapter 52 - Mine at last

Ace - 

She is almost mine, the plan is complete and the pieces are moving into place, victory is so close I can almost taste it. I have left the packlands for the first time in weeks, leaving is risky with my position not secured but I have left some of my best men behind to keep order and to ensure nothing happens with Sven while I am gone. I am on my way to the traitorous pack that is hiding her from me, but I don't plan on this taking long at all, the plan is foolproof and I have let enough time pass now that they are probably thinking I have given up on having her.

When I get to the rendezvous point I wait impatiently for my warriors to reveal themselves to me. Slowly they fade into being before my eyes, having been hidden within the thick brush, camouflaged with dried mud and leaves covering their scent and allowing them to blend with their surroundings.

"How long?" I say, skipping over useless pleasantries.
