Angel’s POVThere wasn’t any back up phone like I was expecting. Instead, she had a glucagon shot in her hand, the end was pressed into the front of her thigh, the cartage empty indicating that she already gave herself the shot.I was familiar with her condition. Or I got familiarized with it when I officially joined the family. Alex made sure everyone knows how to treat a low or high blood sugar, how to determine which one was acting up, what to use in either cases, how to use it, and where to find it. Just in case Jenny wasn’t in a position to help herself and he wasn’t there to help her.She had a smart watch, specially designed to monitor her diabetes twenty four seven. It was the newest model. Whenever she has a problem; even though I never saw her have one with my own eyes since I moved in, her watch is supposed to gave out a loud alarm to alert her.And judging by the lack of any alarms, I was left baffled and confused as hell.“Jenny” I whispered in horror.What the hell was s

Angel’s POVSomething about him made my blood run cold. Maybe it was the same shade of eye color? Or the coldness behind them? Or maybe the fact that he was only directing that look at me?He looked to be in his late twenties with coal, black long hair that he tied into a short pony tail.His glare finally shifted from me as he looked at the killer and flicked his head to the side slightly.At once, a man took a hold of each one of us and dragged us to the side of the big hall, they made us stand under a thick, grey pipe hanging from the wall and started to handcuff our wrists above our heads using the pipe to trap us in our places.I was the first on the left side followed by Jenny, April, then Diana.My heart was in my throat by the time the men stepped away from us and made room for the man in the suit to approach us slowly until he stood directly in front of me.I couldn’t keep my mouth shut any longer as the curiosity was killing me.I opened my mouth to speak but the man in the

Angel’s POV “You have five seconds to give me a name, or I will pick one at random” he said menacingly. My heart was beating at a crazy rhythm, my head was pounding with overtaking fear and preventing me from figuring out a way to shift his attention to me before the others. “Do whatever you want to me, Kyle. Take it all out on me and let them go. You want revenge? Take it from me and release them” Diana said intensely. Kyle tsked and said excitedly “I’m afraid it’s not negotiable. Each one of you is going to die in their own special, painful way. I’ve got the whole thing planned out already and I’m not going to ruin it so you could play the hero” He turned to me and said with a sick smile “Your time is up little sis. Guess I’ll have to start with the one I’m already dying to play with” He moved towards April and stood in front of her, causing my heart to sink. “You’re a delicious thing. I wonder how good you taste” he said with a playful smile. April paled and shook in her pla

Angel’s POV“The first thing I’m going to do is take out that smug attitude right from that smart mouth of yours” he said darkly while still holding on to my hair.“I learned that from my fiancée you son of a bitch, the one that will make sure you die in the most painful way when he finds you” I said calmly.“Too bad you won’t be here to see if it will happen or not” he said sarcastically.I chuckled humorously “Oh it will happen, mark my words. Now, are you going to man up and fight fair, or take the pussy way out”Lucas’s provocative attitude was completely rubbing off on me and I can’t deny, it was serving me well right now.His hold tightens on my hair and I feel a few strands snap from the intensity “I’m going to make you eat your words Angelina. One by one” he said tightly before releasing me.He stood in front of me and began to open my cuffs.“Angelina” Diana whispered agonizingly.I looked at her while Kyle worked on my handcuffs and gave her a reassuring nod to let me do thi

Angel’s POVMy eyes shifted back to Kyle so I don’t expose Jenny’s secret communication with me and mulled over her words inside my head.Whatever it was, I hope for their sakes that she turns out to be right about holding on to hope, as for me, I don’t think I’m capable of holding on much longer.“Told you you’re a pussy, Kyle. Maybe even a real pussy now that you’re dysfunctional down there. Not man enough to fight your own battle, you have to use your men to save your worthless life. Tell me, how does it feel to be incompetent?” I asked cheerfully.He snarled “You’re about to find out exactly how it feels like when you watch your sister in law being whored around my men to play with”My blood ran cold and my lower lip quivered involuntarily with fear.He was about to turn around; towards April for sure, when I hissed at him “You better kill me now Kyle before you think about touching a hair on her head because I vow to you, if you hurt her in front of my eyes, I will make you screa

Lucas’s POV*Forty Five Minutes Earlier*“Any honeymoon destination suggestions?” I asked Alex and David, looking for a little help planning my honeymoon with Angelina after our wedding.She had one week of vacation from college and it couldn’t have come up at a better time.We were all gathered around in the warehouse office waiting for a new shipment to arrive through the border. Mathew and the other men were out there ready to receive it.We had some time to spare and I tried to ask for their opinions.“If she hasn’t been anywhere other than Seattle, you can take her anywhere and she will love it no matter where it is, as long as she has you by her side, the destination isn’t that essential” said Alex softly.He looked to be speaking from experience and I decided to take his word for it.When Alex and Jenny spent a month and a half away from home, I noticed how they came back even more in love with each other than before. And they were extremely madly in love even before they left,

Lucas’s POVAfter about ten minutes of driving in the same direction, Alex said intensely “Hurry up, they drifted off the main road. Ten minutes from here. It looks like they’re headed to Tok”“Tok? They kidnapped them so they could take them to a town thirty minutes from Snow? How dumb are these people?” I asked incredulously.“Actually the exact opposite” said David tightly from behind.“How is that?” I scoffed.“They made sure they couldn’t be traced, they must have switched cars, threw away all the phones, without counting Jenny’s smart move, by the time we started worrying why they haven’t arrived home yet, would it ever occur to you to search for them right under our noses, in the nearby towns? Or would you just assume they took them as far away as they could? Whoever is behind this wants to make a joke out of us. When he finally makes himself known to us and contacts us, he’ll brag about how he fooled us and did this right in our territory without us knowing anything about it”

Lucas’s POVIt didn’t take very long for Alex to distract the man with words enough to let me sneak behind him without raising his awareness, twist the hand he was threatening my mother’s life with, and shoot him in the head with a clean shot all at the same time. He died before he even hit the ground.Had it been a few months ago, I would have never killed him so easily just like that. No, I would have spent hours making him pay viciously for the thirty minutes of terror he caused my family to go through, for laying his filthy hands on any of them, for hurting my angel. I would have made him beg me to kill him and I would have eventually granted him that wish in the most painful way possible.But I didn’t have time to do any of that now. And frankly, for the first time, ever, my mind was at rest about that. The mind that craved pain, screams, and blood of all those who dared to cross my path in the wrong way, was urging me to let things go and save the only person that matters more t
