DAX’S POVAfter arguing about whose fault, it was that Lana decided to leave, I roared the engine to life and drove back to Highwaters. The ride home was quiet and there was a thick tension in the air. It was dark and we had a stranger at the back seat that Xavier hadn’t introduced to me yet. There was no telling if this new friend of his could turn and stab us in the back.“What’s his name?” I decided to ask.“His name is Rico and he’s my old friend,” Xavier answered while he looked away from me.“Are you mad because of Sasha?”“You should have killed the bitch!” He snapped.“Why is killing your first instinct solution?”“Because at least half the problems get solved, Dax! The article and the video wouldn’t have been released on the internet if she was dead!”“Enough, Xavier!” I stopped the car in the middle of the road. “Killing is not a solution, and I wouldn’t have killed Sasha to prove a point!”“You should have,” he answered.I rolled my eyes and started driving again. After an
XAVIER’S POV“Lana? Lana?!” I turned around and saw Dax calling for her near a Rolls-Royce few metres from where I was. It was around 4 AM and still dark, but when I saw Rico standing next to a body, I knew that it was her and I ran towards them. “She’s here!” Rico shouted as I finally reached them and lifted Lana’s head from the ground.“Lana?” I tried to wake her up, but she did not respond, I screamed at the top of my lungs when I thought that she could be dead.“Lana, please… I am right here, baby, please open those eyes. I am right here…” I begged her.And when Paul came to our side and searched for her pulse, he lifted his head and looked at me. “We need to get her to the hospital right now, her heartbeat is very faint.”“What about the car?” Rico asked.“Can you take care of it and bring it back with you?”“Of course,” he replied.While Rico went to take care of the car, I picked Lana up from the ground and took her to the airplane so that we can take her to her doctor as soon
LANA'S POV"She's waking up...""Give her some room to breathe, Xavier.""We will have to give her some time to rest, and you guys need to rest too.""We will wait for her first...""You're too close, Xavier."I opened my eyes and realized that I was at the clinic. My whole body felt numb and my face felt like it was swollen. I couldn't move. But I knew that they were both here, and my heart leaped with joy. The sound of their voices made me happy when they saw me open my eyes. They were happy, and it made me wonder what happened. "She's awake, doctor Miles!""Lean back a little from her, Xavier.""Yes, sorry."I tilted my head and looked at Xavier who was sitting next to me on the bed with a very vibrant smile on his face. Dax was just standing next to the bed with Doctor Miles. As usual, he wrote some things down on his pad before he turned to me. "How is our patient feeling?" Doctor Miles asked. Xavier was already kissing the palms of my hands and refusing to leave my side, whil
XAVIER'S POV"Tell me you've thought carefully about this and you're letting it go?"I turned to him. "Are you crazy? She almost died. She needs to pay for this, Dax, and I am not letting it go." "She's awake, Xavier. She needs us to be there for her, and you know this can go wrong."When we got to the parking lot outside the clinic, I turned around and looked at him. "I'll be back before you know it. Sasha won't be expecting me.""I have a bad feeling about this, Xavier."I got inside my car and drove away. I didn't want to have second thoughts when I had already planned everything and knew exactly how I was going to make Sasha pay. I didn't blame Dax though, he was never a violent person. He always solved his problems in an easy and civilized way, but that was not how I solved my problems.***Not only was Rico efficient when it came to war and guns, but he also had connections and knew where to find people. When he had sent me Sasha's location, I cocked my gun and headed inside he
LANA'S POVAngry, I picked up my phone and called Xavier after ending the call with Costa's lawyer. It was no coincidence that Xavier sent me a voice message about how he wants me to know that he loves me in case he didn't make it. He was with Costa when he died, and I needed to know what happened."Lana?" He answered."What happened to Costa? I know that you were with him."He was quiet for a moment before he answered. "So, you know?""I know. Why didn't you tell me?" "Because it wasn't the right time to tell you that, Lana." "He was my father, Xavier. You don't have any right to decide when I should know about his death.""I understand, Lana. But I didn't want to tell you before you got out of the clinic.""That's no excuse, and you know it. Now, tell me what happened."He sighed. "Lana, we both need our rest.""Should I ask Dax?""Fine. JJ shot him, the guy who -""The guy who raped me, I know his name. So, he killed him?""Yes, but I will find him, I promise." "oh, he killed hi
SEPTEMBER 2022LANA'S POVSuzy and I finally had our lunch date. She was so happy when she saw me and we ordered our favorite food in our favorite lunch spot. It was everything that I wanted to do for months, but couldn't because I didn't know how to face her and continue lying on her face. She was the only person I was close to except Dax and Xavier. It made me happy to finally be able to be myself around her and not hide anything from her. It bothered me for months that I couldn't tell her about Dax and Xavier and the contract. "How are the brothers?" She winked. I giggled while trying to get a spoonful of my mashed potato gravy. "They are good boys.""I still wonder how it's like having two men all to yourself. You must tell me what it's like, Lana." "How about I leave you to wonder?" I laughed."No way, you will do no such thing! You must tell me about the sex!"I almost choked on my drink but I quickly had it under control and laughed. "Suzy, will you stop?"She leaned forwar
LANA'S POV As soon as I roared the engine to life and drove off, Suzy tried to call me but I didn't pick up. If I knew her 'Jay' was 'JJ', I would have tried to tell her why she was not supposed to be with him. And now that I had a picture of him sleeping with her in my mind, I felt like I was losing it. The very thought of his tongue on her repulsed me and I could not wait to get home and get Dax and Xavier to do something about this. "Lana, are you all right?" Xavier asked me when he saw me walking inside the living room. He was sitting on the couch with Dax, and it looked like they were having lunch."I saw JJ," I walked towards them. "What?" Dax exclaimed and got up from the couch. "He's Suzy's boyfriend, can you believe it?" I answered them, still unable to get the picture of them together off my mind. "I should have known when Suzy told me her boyfriend's name was Jay."It was as if I was there every time they made love and made each other cum. I wondered if he felt as good
LANA'S POVThe next morning, I woke up next to Xavier staring at me."Good morning," he smiled and kissed my forehead."Good morning baby," I looked at him and suspected that he might have been waiting for me to wake up so that we'd carry on where we left off last night. "You good?" "I'm good baby, and I slept like a baby. How are you feeling?" I got up and tied up my hair into a bun so that I'd prepare to take a shower."I'm good. I was watching you to make sure that you didn't run off on me."I looked at him and laughed. "You're unbelievable! Oh my gosh!" I took my pillow and threw it at him and got off the bed and dressed up so that I'd head out to the bathroom that was outside. He chuckled and got off the bed too. "Can I come with you?""Do you want to?" I looked at him and smirked while my hand was already at the doorknob. "Are you daring me?" He smirked and stood up with his dick hard as a rock.I couldn't help it but blush. "I dare you."I quickly turned the doorknob but bu
