THIRD PERSON POV:

Bella and the triplets were gathered in Hazel's room as usual. They were waiting for her to return from detention, and soon the door swung open, and she walked in with a gloomy face.

"What happened?" Bella asked, getting to her feet as she walked up to Hazel, who had her face crumpled in a frown.

"If you are very much interested, then Fae happened. I told you we shouldn't do this with her. I couldn't even get away from her with detention because she found her way to the class," she said, walking to her bed to sit.

She threw herself on it with her arms spread out.

"What happened?" Ryder asked, causing her to sit up at once.

She had blamed him earlier for their predicament, and she wasn't going back on her word.

"Your stupid girlfriend happened, and now she wanted me to steal Bella's bags of blood so she could go hungry," Hazel said, and they all glanced at each other. "What is it you have, exactly?" Hazel asked, peering into Ryder's eyes.

He shrugged.

"Maybe we should ask the girls in your grade, and the girls in a grade below... or wait... the girls in the entire school," he said, letting out a chuckle to see Bella staring at him with darkened eyes.

This caused him to press his lips together, leaning back on the wall close to the bed.

"All I wanted was just one call with Riley, and..."

As Hazel rambled on and on, Bella tried to finalize the plan that was brewing in her head. She knew she had to get rid of Fae, and this was going to be the final one. She promised Hazel.

"I've got it!" Bella said, cutting through Hazel's complaint, and she faced Bella with a brow raised.

Bella stood still with her heart filled with hope, then she opened her mouth to speak.

"The school rules were adjusted, and Fae has violated the rules more than once," she said.

"A scandal like this would get her expelled," Finn chipped in, and Bella shot him a deadly look.

"Yes, Finn, but I was doing well with saying it myself."

"Still doesn't look like a foolproof plan. I mean, we are just going to give her the bags and hope she gets bursted?" Kai asked, and Bella looked at him too.

"Will you guys let me finish!" her voice rose a bit, and they threw their hands in the air.

She took a deep breath from shouting.

"We give her the packets of blood, then Hazel casts a spell on me to make me look pale. After this, I can lure her in by going hunting, then when she thinks she has caught me, that is when the main plan comes in," she said as they all watched with their attention glued to her.

She went ahead to explain the remaining part of the plan.

Then she ended by saying, "I told you this would be the last ride, Hazel, and this is my fulfilling it."

After the meeting was held, Bella and Hazel went to Bella's room. They both took out the bags of blood from the fridge, but not everything. There was just enough for Bella to get by for a while.

"I hoped this plan works and we could finally get rid of her. Oh, how peaceful it would be to never see her face, and after this, we would work on getting Sebastian to leave too because he creeps me the fuck out," Hazel said, and Bella nodded in agreement.

As soon as Hazel was gone, Bella returned to the triplets' room.

"Have you called Tyler to inform him of the plan?" she asked Ryder the moment she walked into the room.

Ryder nodded, then she walked towards the couch in the living space to sit.

"He said he didn't know if Emily would want to take a trip to this pack, and I promised to foot the bills and all," he said, and Bella's face fell. "In case it works out, then we have to conclude this weekend because she is a student, and she would need to be in school," he added, and she sighed even more.

"I miss when my life was simpler, and I hope it would go back to something close to that with this," she said, resting her head on the couch with her eyes closed.

In that moment, Ryder's phone beeped, and he excused himself to pick the call.

"She agreed to it, and she would be here Friday evening," Ryder said, and Bella tried to force a smile, but her lips became stiff.

"Great, and I hoped this is the final straw. I cannot wait for everything to fall in place so that we could finally have our freedom," she said.

"Don't worry, we will be here," Finn said, sitting close to her with his hands gliding back and forth on her thighs. At that moment, the door to the room swung open, and Hazel walked in.

"She didn't want to keep the stash of blood either, and I must say that for someone who trusts so easily, she is quite dumb, and I feel useless because she seems like an easy catch."

"She is fast," Kai said, and they all agreed.

"But this time, we will be faster. A werewolf versus two hybrids, three werewolves, and a shapeshifter."

When Bella voiced this out, she realized how weak they sounded, and this made a little doubt cross her chest. What if Halle was wrong about the role they had to play? Fae was just a werewolf, and even though she was strong, Bella was supposedly stronger.

"Man, she is so smart!" Bella groaned as everyone stared into thin air. "I wondered what she has up her sleeves," she said, and Hazel sat close to her.

"You do not have to worry about that. I think we have exhausted her, and by Friday, she would be gone for good."
