Lucas’s POVThe guys heard everything I said and were prepared to take him right away.They booked the first flight back to Fairbanks; which was taking off in an hour, and were already waiting at the airport there. I instructed them not to answer any question he asks at all.They alerted me to something that made my paranoia crack open to a maximum level. The ID he had and used to book the flight with didn’t have the name Ben Collins, but James Sandler. He explained himself by saying it was a fake ID because he has a lot of enemies looking for him.It made sense, but it still didn’t sit right with me all the way.I asked Dan to snap a clear headshot of him without raising his attention and send it to me.I looked at the photo, inspecting it thoroughly, looking for any sort of resemblance to Angelina, but there were no similarities.I sent it to the sheriff of our town, Charlie Dawson. While Charlie is not a Snow, he is very loyal to us and does everything we ask of him because he know

Lucas’s POVAfter spending sometime confined to my room, mulling over Alex’s words in my head, I decided to avoid that headache for later, and got out of my room to go hang out with David or my sister.My guys were already on the plane, headed to Fairbanks.They’re still a few hours away from meeting us here.As my steps neared the stairs, I heard painful whimpers coming from Angelina’s room and I froze before I took my fist step down the stairs.My head turned towards the direction of her room, contemplating whether to ignore those sounds or go inside to investigate.God, was she having another one of those episodes again?Then I heard it loud and clear, her sounds of distress shooting right through my heart, making my legs move towards her room on their fucking own.“Please! Don’t kill her! Please! Stop please!”I walk inside and find her thrashing in bed, her tears falling down through her closed eyes.She was having another nightmare about her mom’s murder.I go over to her and my

Angelina’s POVIt was a pretty stupid decision to decide to take a walk alone with Lucas, in his own freaking territory.He could have some kind of hidden motive behind this mysterious generosity that came out of no where for me, no he definitely has a motive. And I was falling right into his trap right now as I descended down the stairs towards the front door where he was waiting for me.He’s probably about to grill me about my nightmare. Alone, where no one can stand in his way if he decided to act on his promise to punish me when I start lying to him again.Gosh how could my subconscious betray me like that? Doesn’t it know how dangerous it is to let my mouth loose in this house!And what the hell is wrong with me agreeing to walk with him as if he wasn’t the freaking devil in a sexy meat suit?But I’m not entirely helpless now. I’m not still traumatized. Ok I’m still a little traumatized, but I’m not entirely paralyzed by fear anymore. I’m not bound. I’m not hungry or thirsty or d

Lucas’s POV I practically saw her invisible walls snap up to a towering height inside her as soon as I was done with my little suggestion. She whipped her head forward and a composed tamed expression replaced all her curiosity. “Unless you’re afraid of my questions or you’re afraid of me catching you in another lie again” I said under my breath, but loud enough for her to get provoked by my intended words to her. “I’m not afraid, I’m just not interested in giving you any sort of answers that you don’t deserve knowing about and most importantly, answers I’m not willing to give to you even if my life depended on it” she said rigidly without looking at me. Liar. You’re afraid as fuck. “Another lie right there. Stop lying Merida, it will only get you in more trouble with me” I taunted her darkly. She stopped in her tracks and looked at me in a mixture of anger and hurt “Stop threatening me Lucas. If you’re going to do something, just fucking do it. Don’t throw words at me just to s

Lucas’s POVWhy was she asking about this?Shouldn’t she know how Zade got involved with us?Didn’t she know that she started all this? That it was all to get her across the border safely and secretly from Zade’s other enemies?Was she playing me again? Acting like she doesn’t know anything just to show her false innocence?“But you know what he did to my family already, don’t you?” I asked her coldly.She cast her eyes down before she said tightly “The men I was with….they said… he killed your father, brother, and his wife. But I don’t know why he did any of that”I scrutinized her face while she continued to keep her eyes down at the snow.I couldn’t tell if she was being honest or not and it bothered me.But still, I decided to play dumb and go along with her.“At first, he wanted to strike a deal with my father. But when my father learned what kind of product he wants to ship through our borders, he told him to take another way that is far away from our town” I said firmly.She lo

Angelina’s POVI race towards my room and barely have time to shut the door behind me before I collapse against the wall opposite it, Lucas’s words gutting my heart to shreds, my sobs tearing me apart as they repeat through my mind in an endless loop.‘You had everything to do with what fucking happened! It all happened to get you across the border, to smuggle you through our town without anyone knowing’Zade killed three people, three people that brought light and joy into this house. Three people that took everything good with them and left this family in ruins behind them.And it all happened because of me, because of my existence.It all happened to allow Zade to claim me like I was a stolen item.Not in a million years did I envision myself causing someone any kind of pain. Even though I carry my father’s genes in me, a fact that makes my skin crawl and my blood to boil in my veins every time I think about it, I always believed it in my heart that my mother’s genes are the more d

Lucas’s POVI heard it all through the closed door. It made it easier that they were sitting on the ground opposite the door.I guess Angelina’s legs couldn’t carry her any further than that before she collapsed there.I heard her sobs and her guilt, I also heard the last thing she said to my mom before she resumed crying for a long time.‘You don’t know that much about me, if you did……You would hate me’Why would she hate her?What the hell was she too afraid of revealing?That last sentence was driving me crazy.Were my suspicions correct? Was she really not that innocent after all? Was it all just a pretense? If she was, why would she tell that to my mom? Why would she give herself away like that? Was she really feeling guilty? Was it her remorse for the way mom has been treating her that had her changing her allegiance against Zade?Too many fucking complicated questions and no way to answer them. At least not right now. But soon. Very soon. An hour and a half soon.I already know

Lucas’s POVI finish explaining the whole thing I already told Angelina merely two hours ago, then proceeded to tell her father that we received a tip about a little smuggling attempt between Alcan and Snow, and that there will be a girl with them, and that she was the sole reason for that secretive operation taking place there.I informed him that I killed the two men that were with her after they refused to tell me where Zade is and took his girl back home with me.I told him that she confirmed the men’s story about her being a paid virgin prostitute, and saw the dumbfounded look on his face when I came to that part about her being a virgin prostitute. I was enjoying the hell out of his reaction as his hands balled into fists to contain his temper.I told him that I took her words at face value without letting her know that I was digging behind her lies to me and that’s how we got to him.“So now that you know everything. We should get to the part that matters to me. What the hell d

Lucas’s POVAt the mention of his real name, I caught his slight tremble and saw his face pale even through his tan skin.David looked at me in confusion, so I slid my phone to him to check it out.The man in the picture was named Andrew Smith, and surprise, surprise! He’s Canadian.I didn’t need to read further into his long sheet to realize that I have been fooled and lied to yet again.He’s one of Zade’s scumbags.He set this up and made his man here come up with a story to take the girl right from underneath my fucking town.That bastard keeps underestimating me, and soon enough it will get him exactly what’s coming for him.How the hell did that happen?“So where is the real Ben Collins?” I asked coldly.“I don’t know what you’re talking about, I told you the truth, I’m Ben Collins” he said angrily.I closed my eyes for a few seconds, trying to get myself under control. But self control wasn’t really my strongest suit.I opened them and got up from my chair, heading straight towa

Lucas’s POVShe was so taken by surprise regarding what I just said to her, that I felt like she stopped breathing altogether.She was frozen in place, her chest not even moving, her eyes not even blinking as she kept her eyes fixed on me with a bewildered look.I smiled at catching her so off guard, that I practically felt like I shot her dead right there as I revealed her stupid lie to me.One thing was confirmed though. If I had any doubts that she knew who Andrew was in the slightest, I would have caught a flicker of recognition in her eyes when she looked at him. But she was staring at him like she was seeing a complete stranger to her.She has no idea who that man is. But I was far from being done screwing with her.She fucked up massively when she decided to roll a lie after lie to my face and now she was going to pay for everything.I wasn’t backing down from her until I get the whole damn truth, I was willing to go to what ever extremities I had to to fucking get it.Enough i
