CHAPTER 19

Lyra's POV.

Deep down in me I knew that I shouldn't have taken that risk, but something kept stirring up. If I was supposed to cause a distraction, how was I supposed to know that I had successfully accomplished my emission if I had not been able to prove that nothing was real around here?

He was probably thinking that I was one of those people who had been sent but even if I had this wasn't the right way to go about it. The better way I should have done was to make sure that nobody was able to suspect me either way.

It wasn't going to be easy to convince everybody that I was not a fraud but I knew that with my consistent practice it was going to be seamless at the end of the day.

"So here you are. Are you ready to tell me what exactly the hell you are or are you willing for me to beat it out of you?" Kael answered.

Fact that I was here but he couldn't recognize who I was told me everything that I needed to know.

"Are you kidding me right now alpha? We were only trying to protect ourselves. I don't know how that has become a crime. You know that it's not a crime so why are you trying to intimidate the US into silence?"

It was a bold move and I didn't mind what it was going to cost me. Camille was going to be the one who listened to sound advice instead of me and that was exactly how we were going to play this game and get over it.

Kael let out the loudest growl that I had ever heard but something kept calling deep between the both of us which I knew that he was still frustrated about.

He just didn't understand what the hell was going on between him and I and why he was feeling connected to me.

That was something that I would love to explore to the last letter and see what I could get from it.

He didn't think that getting away with this was going to be that easy for him did he?

Of course he was hoping that he would be able to just snap his fingers and everything would be settled but that wasn't going to work around here anymore. Instead he was going to have to work double if he wanted answers that he sought.

"You don't want to know what I'm capable of darling. If you do, then you would have yourself to blame but if you don't, it's going to be easier to let go of you."

Trying to intimidate me was the last thing that anybody could do and that was going to work because it just made me laugh at their attempts and try other methods in making them mad.

Some people thought that when I said I want it to be vengeance I was going to come here with guns trying to fight my way out of this place instead I was going to pretend like I didn't have anything to do which was going to unknown to him even more than weapons.

"Sir, we've done nothing wrong but to come to this party!" Camille said in a distressed voice.

Now she was also killing it and doing the same thing that I expected her to have done in the beginning.

It was a wild experience but if we played our cards well we will be able to appeal to his merciful side and get away with it without anybody knowing that our hands had been indeed soiled.

"The fact that you think that I'm going to believe any of the things that comes out of your mouth makes me even laugh at your audacity. Do you think that you were going to get out of this place without me finding out that you have been supporting the rogues?"

I looked him straight in the eyes, refusing to allow myself to be dragged down a hill.

If I was going to get everything right I need it to come correct with the emotions and everything else involved. He was onto something but I couldn't let him grasp the full idea.

He had to be lost one way or the other and then I would keep laughing.

"I assure you that we don't have any hand in this! We don't even know the first thing about how to get into a pack! We were brought in here by..." Camille coughed.

I turned to look at her.

She burst into a fit of cough.

I was impressed at how easily she was able to switch from one character to the other without getting caught.

This was exactly what I was talking about all along! You couldn't expect that if we continued in One direction he wasn't going to find out what we were doing!

"Aubrey!" I called a fake name, jumping towards where she lay. "You cannot die on me!" I smacked her hard across the face.

This was my perfect opportunity and I was going to seize it. I smacked her again, causing foam to expel out of her mouth.

How she did it I would never understand but I knew that since she had been in several of these situations she was able to get out of them without any strap and that was exactly what I was hoping that we did.

"Please come with me! I know that you're tired and everything but I cannot allow you to die!" I yelled again.

This was my best opportunity to sell this act and if I didn't take it there was never going to be any better one.

Kael must have felt my distress, and thought that it was because I was truly scared without knowing that I was only doing my job as an actress.

"If you die on me I'm going to haunt your ass in hell!" I kept smacking her across the face, until I looked up. "Please, get me water!" I croaked.
