Chapter 51

Chapter 51: I could keep you Lyric's POV The streets were eerily quiet, the distant hum of traffic the only sound breaking the silence. My breath came in shaky exhales, my mind racing as I walked. Every shadow felt like a threat, every passing car made my pulse spike. I had no real plan—just a desperate need to act. I tapped my phone screen, my fingers trembling as I typed a message. Uncle, where are you? It’s urgent. No response. I tried again. And again. Still nothing. Panic tightened my chest. If Alessio’s men were after him, they had probably already tracked his usual spots. If I could think like them, maybe I could stay a step ahead. It could all be a huge waste of time, but I had no choice. But where would he go? Despite being an asshole, my uncle had a lot of friends—or frenemies. Any one of them could be harboring him. Or he could be out of town. Hell, he could be out of the country as we speak. But I had to try. I stood at the n

Chapter 52

Chapter 52: Stay away from her. GAVIN HAWKINS POV Today's practice sucked. I couldn’t bring myself to focus at all, no matter how hard I tried. We had a game in three days—I wasn’t supposed to be slacking off. Grabbing a bottle of water, I sat in the locker room, trying to rehydrate before heading home. My muscles ached from the drills, but my mind felt even more exhausted. The door swung open, and Aaron walked in, drenched in sweat. A towel was draped over his torso and another around his neck as he wiped his face. He was obviously heading to the showers. "You played dumb out there today. Is something on your mind?" he asked, his brows furrowing as he studied me like I was some puzzle he wanted to solve. Good luck with that. "No doubt, Sherlock," I grumbled, twisting off the cap and downing the rest of my water. The cold liquid was refreshing, but it did nothing to clear my head. Aaron scoffed, running a hand through his damp hair. "I don't even wa

Chapter 53

Chapter 53: lovesick idiotGAVIN HAWKINS POV I stood frozen, watching as Lyric walked away. My fingers clenched around my exam paper, but it might as well have been nothing. She had barely looked at me—barely acknowledged me. But those marks on her face? The scratches on her arms? That wasn’t nothing. Before I could think twice, my feet moved on their own. I shoved my results into my bag and followed her out the door, weaving through students who had no idea that my heart was hammering like a drum in my chest. Lyric walked briskly down the hall, her bag slung over one shoulder, her posture tense. She knew I was behind her. I could tell by the way her fingers twitched, tightening around the strap of her bag. I didn’t care. I wasn’t letting this go. “Lyric.” My voice was quiet but firm as I caught up to her. She ignored me. “Lyric, stop.” Nothing. She was heading toward the main doors—probably planning to leave. But I wasn’t letting he

Chapter 54

Chapter 54: This is the end for meGAVIN HAWKINS POV The sun had dipped lower in the sky by the time I arrived at her house after practice. I couldn’t wait until the next day to talk to her—to make things right. I didn’t fully understand what I was feeling, but I knew one thing: I wanted to see her again. The thought of her hating me didn’t sit right. Stepping out of my Jeep, I hurried toward the Spencers’ front door. The garden was in full bloom, fresh flowers sprouting up from the neatly kept beds. The neighborhood was lively with the distant sound of dogs barking, the occasional chatter from passing pedestrians. When I reached the porch, I noticed the door was slightly ajar. I raised my hand to knock but froze. The thought of turning back echoed in my head. Instead, I stayed. Something felt off. Cautiously, I pushed the door open, its slow creak sending an eerie chill down my spine. The moment I stepped inside, an instinctual alarm went off in my head.

Chapter 55

Chapter 55: I Don't Care If I Crash LYRIC'S SPENCER POV The girls' voices overlapped, their demands growing louder by the second. Lana, Catherine, and Hanna bounced on the bed, their matching pajama sleeves flapping as they argued over what counted as a real magic trick. I blinked at them, momentarily overwhelmed. A real magic trick? What did they even mean by that? I could do a simple card trick, but that wasn't going to satisfy them. Just as I opened my hands to sign a compromise, a voice interrupted from the doorway. "I think I can help with that." I turned my head to find Gavin leaning casually against the doorframe, arms crossed over his chest, a smirk tugging at his lips. What was he doing here? I looked over at the clock on the wall; it was fifteen minutes past eight. The triplets immediately turned toward him, eyes wide with interest. "You can do magic?" Hannah asked skeptically, tilting her head. Gavin stepped into the room, his express

Chapter 56

Chapter 56: Part of the family LYRIC SPENCER POV I swallowed hard, my grip tightening on my phone. His words hung between us, thick and heavy like a storm waiting to break. Gavin took another step forward, close enough that I could feel the warmth radiating from his body. My pulse pounded in my ears. Slowly, hesitantly, he reached out, his fingers brushing against my wrist. I didn't pull away. His voice was lower now, rougher. "Tell me to stop, Lyric, and I will." But I didn't. Instead, I let my phone slip from my hands onto the bed, freeing my fingers to trace the edge of his shirt. It was the smallest movement, but it shattered whatever restraint was left between us. Gavin exhaled sharply, his other hand cupping my jaw, tilting my face up toward his. His touch was both careful and desperate, as if he was afraid I might vanish. "You drive me crazy," he murmured. "I don't know how to want you less." Before I could process what was happening, hi

Chapter 57

Chapter 57: I was screwed LYRIC SPENCER POV I was sitting on my bed, scrolling through my phone, when a knock sounded at my door. I hesitated, then typed out, Come in. The door creaked open, and Gavin stepped inside, shutting it behind him. I sighed. What now? He smirked, shoving his hands into his pockets. “Why do you always look like you’re bracing for impact when I show up?” I gave him a pointed look. Because I am. His smirk widened. “Fair enough.” Silence stretched between us. But it wasn’t awkward. It was heavy. Charged. I fidgeted with the hem of my shirt. You’re not staying the night. “Relax.” He rolled his eyes. “I’m not trying to sneak into your bed.” My face heated. My fingers glided over my screen with full force. That is NOT what I meant. “Sure,” he teased, but then his expression softened. “I just… I didn’t want to leave things weird between us.” I stared at him, fingers hovering over my phone screen, my heart ra

Chapter 58

Chapter 58: Time for Change The next morning, I tried to act normal. Really, I did. I took my bath as usual, contemplating whether to wear my favorite lip gloss or go bare. I also debated whether to wear my hair in a ponytail or let it down on my shoulders. Every decision was overthought, and it was exhausting. The reason was simple: I didn't want him to think I was trying to look good for him. But, in reality, I was. I just didn't want him to notice. Finally, I settled on a flowy, pastel pink sundress that hugged my curves in all the right places. The dress was adorned with delicate white flowers and had a subtle sheen to it. I paired it with a pair of neutral-colored heeled ankle boots that added a touch of sophistication to my overall look. I styled my hair in loose, effortless waves, and applied my favorite lip combo - a soft, rosy shade that complemented my skin tone. I finished off my look with a spritz of my best scented perfume. After ensuring I looked good

Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Do you like me back Lyric Spencer? I exhaled slowly, my fingers gripping my phone as Aunt Stephanie’s words lingered in my mind. "Don’t let fear make your decisions for you. Love a little. You deserve it." I had spent so much of my life running—running from rejection, from loss, from anything that felt too big to handle. Maybe it was time to stop. Maybe it was time to do something terrifying. Like letting Gavin in. I glanced back at him just in time to see him get tackled by all three triplets at once. He let out a dramatic groan, collapsing onto the grass as if they had actually defeated him. Lana whooped in victory, standing on his back like a tiny conqueror. I bit my lip, fighting back a smile. He must’ve felt my stare because his head turned, his gaze locking onto mine. A slow, knowing smirk curved his lips. “You coming over here, or are you just gonna admire me from a distance?” he called. I rolled my eyes, but my stomach flippe

Chapter 60

Chapter 60: My BoyfriendLYRIC SPENCER POV Just as Gavin’s hands slid beneath my dress, gripping the backs of my thighs, the shed door banged open. "Lyric Spencer!" Aunt Stephanie’s voice cut through the haze like a bucket of ice water. I jolted, shoving at Gavin’s chest as we scrambled apart. He stumbled back, breathing hard, his hair thoroughly wrecked, his shirt stretched from my grip. My pulse hammered in my ears, my lips still tingling from his kisses. Aunt Stephanie stood in the doorway, arms crossed, one brow raised. She wasn’t exactly angry—more amused, maybe exasperated. Gavin cleared his throat, running a hand through his hair. "Uh—hey, Aunt Stephanie." "Hey yourself," she drawled, eyes flicking between us. "Y'know, when I said to ‘love a little,’ I didn’t mean in broad daylight where the kids could walk in on you." My face burned. Gavin grinned, unrepentant. "To be fair, we were behind the shed." Aunt Stephanie sighed like she wa
