Chapter 33 Hunter’s POVShe acted so strangely, it was like she was trying her best to stay away from me, she didn’t seem like my Laura, she acted as if she hated me. Did someone tell her something? It’s weird, I tried to reach her since morning, I called, I texted but she didn’t pick up, she wasn’t at home, she wasn’t at Rick’s house and Rick and Nelly were not around too, and then when I find out all thanks to Lucas, he informed me that he saw her walking out of Rick’s car and he saw her hugging Nelly outside her house. I quickly sent a text telling her I’m outside her house, it was weird, how she behaved with me. I saw her eyes, it was bloodshot red, that didn’t seem right, she cried, she has been crying. She pushed me away. “I’m sure someone told her something,” Lucas said.“I know, I hate to think about it that it was Nelly who told her something about me and I feel Rick knew too,” I said to them. “You should talk to her, I know you care about her, more than you think,” Luk
Laura’s POV I didn’t ask Mom where she went to last night, after she left last night, I walked toward the door to try and follow her but she locked the door from outside, I went upstairs to get my keys by the time I got the door opened she was nowhere at sight, I just went back to bed. The next morning, she looked pretty tired, she yawed all through breakfast and when I asked her why she was tired, she gave a lame excuse saying she couldn’t sleep all night, it’s weird having mom lie to me, Mom has never lied to me not one I can remember, I tried to think who she went to meet or why she is lying? How long has this been going on, I thought. It’s weird because I know mom doesn’t really have any friends or maybe she made some friends at work but if she did she always informed me about the new people she met. Maybe we are just not closer like before. After breakfast, I took a quick bath and wore on my clothes, and waited for Rick to pick me up, he told me he would be picking me up and
Rick’s POV I just got off the call with Nelly, I can’t believe after every fucking thing Hunter still has the mind to go threaten Nelly, he has the fucking nerve to hit her. I drove as fast as I could, when I got to her house, I didn’t bother to knock, I just walked into the house, she sat on her couch, she was too busy applying ointment to her hand. I rushed toward her.“Hey, are you okay?.” I asked, I checked her hand, fuck he really hit her bad when I noticed he Ebla k eye I almost lost it.“He fucking did this,” I asked.“Yes.” She replied.“How did this happen? Why did you let him into your house?.” I asked almost yelling. “I’m sorry I shouldn’t have yelled at you.” I quickly said. I sat beside her and started applying ointment to some parts of her hand and her eye. “When I heard the bell, I didn’t know if was him not until I opened the door and before I could lock the door he forced himself in,” Nelly said. “He came did this and warned me to stay away from all of you.” She s
Hunter’s POV I’m fed up with her, it’s fucking annoying how she thinks she can control me or thinks I will do everything she fucking wants but she is wrong, if Rick won’t listen to me, I will fucking make him listen, I know approaching them to ask them to give me a chance to explain won’t work so I would have to go the other way, I have to force them to listen to me, they are my friends and I won’t allow Nelly ruin their lives, she would pay for whatever sick plan she is having. “It’s tomorrow,” I said to Lucas, I just got back home I didn’t want to speak about the conversation I had with Nelly and Lucas got the idea of that. “I know, Vincent and his pack are on their way to each province,” Lucas said.“Is everyone prepared, I need it to go perfectly,” I said. “Yes, everything is good,” Lucas said.I planned on speaking to Lucas after we attacked Darwin, I would force her to listen to me, she has to and after that, I would let her decide between either wanting me in her life or no
Hunter’s POV It was time, it was either tonight we would celebrate our success or we would be heartbroken we lost, but I have great faith in us, everything would be fine. We were now standing close to Darwin’s house waiting for the time to clock, we planned on doing everything at that specific time so they won’t know what hit them. I glanced at my watch.“It’s time,” I said to them, we have already surrounded the whole house with gunpowder just like last time and there were people in the house but we cared less, they all deserved death for following a man like Darwin.“Now,” I said to Lucas, he lit the matches and dropped them by the side of the house just as expected the fire got and the house started to burn, I used all my strength to drag the tree close to her house and with Luke’s help in no time, the tree fell on to of the house.I walked into the burning house. I knew what I needed, the fucking blueprint of all the properties he owned, I stood in front of a closed room making s
Laura’s POVHe acted weird as he left, what happened to him, it was like he was in deep thought, and then he went blank. I kept on thinking about what he told me, I can choose not to believe him but there is something that is telling to me believe him, I saw the truth in his eyes, and the way Nelly behaved today made me question her truth a lot, she looked like she wanted to protect Hunter which was weird, why would you want to protect your abuser. I sat by the edge of my bed, different thoughts running through my mind, when I heard a knock on my door, I stood and opened it, it was mom.“Hey, I heard noises.” She said to me.“I was just on the phone.” I lied, and she hummed. “Good night mom,” I said. When I got home today, Mom had a friend over which I thought was weird because she never makes friends but anyways she had a friend over, but the woman she said was her friend acted strangely and very weird, she kept staring at me throughout, and when Mom asked me to join them for lunc
Laura’s POV“What the fuck, tell me I misheard this,” Layla said.“If this is true then fuck he just saved us from her,” Mia said.“Fuck.” Bella cursed which made all of us turn to look at her, she isn’t the type to curse.“Not the time guys.” She reminded us. We all hummed.“I know, I don’t know if I’m stupid to believe him,” I said to the girls.“Well, you said you sounded sincere and you also said the time you and Rick suggested taking Hunter to jail she went all monkey on you,” Vicky said. “I know, I believe Hunter, I know he is saying the truth,” I said to them.“Rick needs to know the truth, he is defending Nelly way too much,” Mia said.“I know but he won’t just listen, this morning he showed up at my house to pick me up but then he got all mad that I was with Hunter, we tried to explain but he didn’t even listen to a fucking word,” I said.“That’s going to be a problem,” Mia said.“I know, I very well know Rick, he is very stubborn and I won’t let someone like Nelly manipulat
Laura’s POV We got ten minutes before time just in case mom decides to go before time just so that we don’t miss anything, Vicky was a bit dramatic about all this, we went too far with the spy thing, she made us wear black clothes so that we would look like spies in the movies. We looked amazing.“It’s almost time,” Mia said.“I’m sleepy.” Bella yawned, God this girl feels sleepy all the time, there is a reason she is not a party person, she is always at home because she fucking loves to sleep. “Not the time Bella, you can sleep after we are done with this,” I said to her. I glanced around waiting to see any sign of Mom, I glanced at my phone it was midnight. “Do you think she will be here?.” Layla asked.“It’s just been one minute past midnight, calm the fuck down,” I said to her.“Jeez, calm with the fucking attitude Laura.” She said, which made me laugh. This was our usual thing, I remember when I first met her at the party, she thought I was rude and was all like I should c
