The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 266

Chapter 0266 Judys POV Ow , Judy ! Nan cried .

Youre hurting me ! I dug my nails so deep into her flesh that she started to bleed .

My heart was racing , and I thought my ears were going to explode .

I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to remain as still as possible as Nan attempted to unwrap my fingers from around her arm .

Seriously , girl .

Let me go , she demanded through her teeth .

I finally untangled my fingers from her and gripped the armrests instead .

As Nan rubbed her aching arm , I could hear her muttering , Training to be a gamma yet terrified of planes .

She was right ; I was terrified of flying .

Wolves didnt belong in the air ; we were land animals .

This thing could break down and wed crash , exploding into a million pieces .

This was a chance I truly did not want to take , but here I was , in the air , flying for the next several hours to a tropical location .

Nan wasnt as scared as I was , she was gazing out the window , pointing at all the pretty clouds that we were flying through .

She kept saying something about our packs looking like a giant map the higher we got You are missing out on the beauty of it all , Nan breathed as she pressed her face against the window .

I finally managed to pry my eyes open and look around ; the plane had finally leveled off , and my ears no longer felt as if they were about to explode .

1 saw the big smile on Nans face as she stared out the window , awe clear in her eyes .

It was nice seeing her smiling again .

After these last few days , I never thought I would see that smile on her face again .

It was almost worth it .

How much longer until we are there , 1 asked , not wanting to stare out the window , afraid of what Id see .

We just took off , she laughed .

Calm yourself and relax .

How can I relax when we are so high up in the sky ? I asked .

I dont like this .

Well , theres no other way to get to this place .

We have to cross several oceans , she told me .

You were the one who wanted to do the competition , she added with a shrug Do you ladies want anything to drink or a snack ? The stewardess , who startled me , asked .

Water please I asked .

She nodded and handed me a small water bottle before glancing at Nan .

Coffee would be great , she said .

We just drank coffee , I reminded her .

She shrugged .

Its going to be a long flight , and I dont want to fall asleep , she explained .

The stewardess poured a cup of coffee and then handed Nan some sweeteners and powdered creamers .

She went off to serve others .

I took a sip of the water , trying to calm my nerves and racing heart .
