Lucas’s POVI could see the battle she was fighting against her self to keep her walls solid around me, blocking any and all attempts from me to bring them down.I couldn’t hold my stupid mouth from requesting a kiss from her, it was completely out of my control. Something about her just keeps calling to me, luring me to her, and I just stopped fighting it a long time ago and fully succumbed to it. Wish she would do the same, but she was holding her own urges better than me.“We probably shouldn’t” she whispered and I could sense how hard those words were for her because a big part of her was yearning for that kiss like me.I sighed softly and said soberly “Well, I should probably let you get ready for the day. We still on for training and gun practice?”She raised her eyebrows “I didn’t realize you’re part of training now, too” she said in wonderment.“I can’t let you and April practice in that gym alone, so might as well get a little workout from it” I said huskily.“You can just se

Lucas’s POVI spent the best day with Angelina.I was being my gentle, soft self with her. Unlike yesterday, when I kept pressing on her nerves, teasing, and provoking her just to get a reaction from her.Today, I was totally polite and sensitive towards her. I knew she was still rattled by her nightmare and that me spending the night with her helped her to get past it enough to fall back to sleep. But it wasn’t enough to push it out of her head entirely. That will require some time to achieve, and I will try to work with her on this.I changed my tactic towards making her stay here with me and allowing her feelings for me to grow instead of pushing them away. I decided to stop provoking her or playing any sort of game with her. I just wanted to be there for her and show her the real Lucas, when he’s not surrounded by his craziness and impulsiveness.After breakfast, we headed towards the gym for practice. I dragged David along with me too. He complained at first but I knew he was jus

Lucas’s POV“This better be good, Alex” I said gruffly as I answered the call.“Did I interrupt your beauty sleep?” he asked innocently.Oh it was a fucking beauty alright, but I was wide awake, sober, and horny as hell for that fucking beauty if my throbbing, angry dick was any indication.“Just tell me what you’ve got” I said dryly, already cursing him in my head.“Touchy, touchy. What’s going on with you?” he asked sarcastically.“Nothing” I said curtly.I swear I was two seconds away from hurling profanities at him if he doesn’t get to the fucking point.“Sure” he said mockingly and before I could go off on him, he carried on in all business mode “I have good news. I was able to get my hands on his man and flip him on our side, he’s going to call the meeting as soon as Zade leaves. We’re all set for tomorrow morning. Tell me you already sent the guys over here”“They’re on their way. Are you sure about the man? What if he betrays us to Zade?” I ask him in a hard tone. You can’t tr

Angelina’s POVHe fucking lied to me!He hid the truth from me even after he said that he trusted me.Not just him, but all of them did, even Diana.Now April’s slip up two days ago made total sense. She was talking about them in the present tense and I felt sorry for her because she hasn’t accepted the fact that they were dead yet. But they were alive all along.The door suddenly opened revealing the person I thought I could start trusting. The only man I gave my trust to and let him in; even if it was for a little bit. I gave him a fucking piece of me, I gave him my first kiss, I let him hug me, hold me, and embrace me to sleep. I thought he was going to be the one to change my mind about letting a man into my life, into my heart.What the hell was all of that talk about him being sincere with me, not playing with me or having fun at my expense?Just another lie?Another fucking mind game?God! How could I be so stupid?I hated myself even more than I hated him right now.“Angel…” h

Lucas’s POVI thought losing dad and almost losing my brother and Jenny was the ultimate pain I’ll probably ever feel in this lifetime, but I was wrong. So freaking wrong.I was crushed right now to say the least. Devastated. Drowning in guilt and self blame.The raw pain I saw on her face and in her voice, filled me with agony. It fucking hurt, for real. My heart was aching, my chest was tightening, and my eyes were even watering.I ruined everything.My chance with her, mom’s special place in her heart, but most of all, I ruined her chances of being safe here with us and agreeing to live here for her own protection.There was no changing her mind now.She’s hell bent on leaving after we're done dealing with Zade.She wants nothing to do with me, not even my fake ID that I was going to provide for her. She probably even thought I was lying and deceiving her about it. That I was never going to get her anything.Whatever progress I made with her, to convince her that I genuinely had f

Angelina’s POV“You broke my trust, Lucas! And you know exactly how hard it was for me to let you in, in the first place. You know everything about me, and about my past. I bared my fucking heart to you! And what did you do? You remained silent. You saw and heard how much I was drowning in guilt for causing their deaths! I was blaming myself immensely and you saw all that suffering and kept quiet about it. Is that how much you care about me? If that’s true, I don’t want it anymore. Because I clearly do not mean that much to you the way you led me to believe” I said angrily to him.I wasn’t going to open the door no matter what. No matter who talked to me or who tried to get me to let them in, but against my better judgment, I found myself doing the exact opposite.I had an open wound, bleeding and hurting, and I couldn’t resist from letting out that unbearable pain on him. He deserved whatever I threw at him because he fucking hurt me the most out of all of them. Even more than Diana.

Lucas’s POVI rolled my window and addressed one of the guards firmly “I’m crossing over to meet someone important and coming back in two minutes. Keep your eyes and ears open alright? And don’t shoot my car when you see me coming back”The guard nodded his head in understanding with a smile at my warning.It took me about fifteen minutes over the Canadian territory to meet up where Alex was waiting for me by his SUV. Jenny was sitting cross legged against the hood of the car. She was a sight for sore eyes, both of them were. It felt like I haven’t seen them in months even though it was about a month and a half ago that we said goodbye to them.I parked by the side of the road and got out quickly. They both walked over to me and I couldn’t help myself from launching myself at them and hugging them both very tightly.My throat thickened as many emotions washed over me at the confirmation of their safe presence around me.“Wow, you weren’t kidding about that bear hug” said Jenny in a mu

Lucas’s POVI called Mathew when I was two minutes close to home to open the iron gate for me to pass through it.Before I left, I asked the three guys standing guards outside to go to the border and stay there to participate in taking down Zade and his men in a few hours. It was an excuse to make them leave so they don’t see Alex and Jenny stepping out of the trunk.I parked the car outside the house and got out, opening the trunk and letting them out.Mathew came running after closing the gate and hugged Alex emotionally, he smiled at Jenny and nodded his head at her respectfully.“Hope my brother didn’t drive you too crazy for the past month and a half” said Alex sarcastically.“He had his moments but it was all under control” he said with a wide smile.I rolled my eyes at that, right!We walked ahead to the front door and just as we reached it, Sara opened the door with a wide grin on her face.We hurried inside into the warm house as they hugged Sara, then we entered the living r
