The Transfer novel Chapter 76

Liam’s POV

———————————————

One day.

Then two.

Two days turned into five. Five days turned into a whole week.

It had been an entire damn week since I'd seen Alison. My mate. The love of my damn life. A whole week without her.

I could contact her one the first day, but after I yelled at her and shut her out, I disappeared for hours. I had to run my anger off. When I finally came back to my senses, I realised that I was unfair with her.

The last thing she needed was me yelling at her and making her feel even worse. We needed to stick together. I couldn't just let Henry keep her in those dungeons.

But when I tried to contact her again, I couldn't reach her at all. She wasn't shutting me out, my calls to her were seeming to fade of before they could reach her. She was somewhere far and she was either unconscious or really, really hurt.

But that didn't stop me from trying to contact her. I tried all of the second day, and all of the third. But nothing went through. Alison was off the grid.

It had been a week. A whole week of me cooping myself up in my room. Everyone had been keeping a careful eye on me. They thought I would lash out and go to find Henry so I could possibly beat his ass. But I knew I couldn't do that. I'd be in deep trouble if I did.

Hell, but I wanted to so badly.

I had to listen to what Alison said and I had to stay away from Henry. I needed to get her back soon as possible, not give Henry more reasons to keep her locked up.

But, I had to visit her. I had to see she was okay. I at least deserved that.

I got up from my bed and rushed to the shower. I turned the water hot and jumped in as soon as I stripped away my clothes. I showered quickly.

I lathered myself in the soap, and washed my hair throughly. If I was going to see Alison, I had to look and smell nice. It would make her feel better if she thought I was taking care of myself.

After my shower, I dried myself and raced down to my room. I changed into jeans and a plain t-shirt. I slipped on a pair of sneakers and then made my way down the hallway again.

"Where you going?" I heard Leon ask me just before I could slip past him and Cass who were in the kitchen together. Lucas was sat at the table, and Lila was only just taking a seat, Brayleigh already seated too.

They had all been keeping a careful eye on me, to make sure I didn't get into trouble. But they couldn't keep me from going to see Alison. They had no right to keep me from her.

"Take a wild guess," I retorted as I turned around to look at them again. They all stared at me. I was sure they were expecting me to lash out.

"You can't see her Liam. Henry wouldn't allow it. You know he has men guarding the doors," Lucas said, making my beast angry.

Did he not think I knew that? Of course I freaking knew! It was my pack too. I was the Beta. I knew damn well that the dungeons were being guarded.

Did I care? Nope.

"I'm their superior. I can make them move," I said boldly. Lucas scoffed and shook his head as he turned away.

He had been in a bitter mood the past week. He was just as close with Alison as Lila was. The three of them were incredibly good friends. It made my life a lot easier, but it also effected the entire group when Alison was having issues.

Lucas was my step in man. Whenever I wasn't there to look after Alison, I knew he would by right there. I was glad that he was stepping in for me. But it was time for him to step down and let me take back my female. She needed me. I needed her.

"Liam, going to see her won't be good for anyone. You have to stay here, or at least go do paperwork if you want to get out the house," Lila told me. I glanced over at Leon, who shot me a look.

I knew they were all right. But I didn't care. They couldn't stop me from seeing my female.

"Seeing her will be good for her and myself. I don't care about what anyone else thinks," I said bluntly. Lila sighed and shook her head slightly.

"Liam, come on. She'll be back in no time. Bothering her and making Henry pissed off won't get her out any faster," Leon warned me. I clenched my fists, angry.

I didn't want to listen to them. I wanted to see Alison. I wanted to hold her close and clean that gash on her cheek. I wasn't sure how she got it, but I didn't like the way it looked.

"Liam, I know you're struggling to cope with it, but seeing her will overwhelm the both of you. You need to wait," Brayleigh told me. I looked to her, ready to fight anyone who tried to keep me away from my mate.

She understood exactly how I felt. So did Leon. But that didn't change my judgement nor my decisions. I wanted to see Alison.

"I'll be quick," I said, even though it was a lie. If I was going to see Alison, I would take as much time as I needed.

I turned around before any of them could say anything else. I left the house, pulling the front door shut behind me. I glanced back over my shoulder as I walked away and I clicked my tongue. They'd forgive me. I knew they would.

I made my way towards the pack house. I walked quickly, eager to see her. My beast was just as excited as I was. I was glad that I was going to see her, finally. I needed her.

"Liam! Where are you going, baby?" I heard a voice squeal and then felt hands attach to my arm and pull me to a stop. My arm burned and I sighed and I turned around to face Veronica.

"Hi Veronica," I huffed out dreadfully. She rolled her eyes at me and tried to slip her hand into mine.
