Raegan’s POVMy heart began thinking in fear and all my attempts to escape proved to be futile.“Rather than acting out, I advise you to Lay back and relax,” one of the guards holding me out said and I did just that.What was the least he could do to me?‘It was Lucas right?’, I asked no one in particular.The worst he could ever do was to insult me for being foolish and letting my emotions get a hold of me.In the silence of the night, we drove towards a warehouse where Lucas was waiting for me, or was this another attempt by those guys to kidnap me?As soon as we arrived, I marveled at the interior of the warehouse, it looked more like a den.The look on the man's face spelled nothing friendly so I avoided holding their gazes.We walked up the stairs toward where I guessed was Lucas's office and there I was thrown on the floor to kneel in his front.I had thought it was a joke before but when I tried standing up before being held down to stay still.“Boss, we brought her,” he said to
Raegan’s POVI wanted to kill him!“Ugh!” I yelled in anger at the door that he had passed through.My shaking hands went round my neck where he had tried squeezing the life out of me.The guts of Lucas to threaten me and then stare at me like he wanted to rip out my clothes a while after.My blood boiled in anger and the fact that it was all out of my control was something that fuelled my fire.Starting from the pillow beside my room I threw it across the room and for some reason it brought joy as I could imagine Lucas being thrown around like that.I could sense a tantrum brewing in my head and soon enough I gave into it and I began throwing anything my hand could touch.He had no idea how I hated him and how much I wanted him!I hated how crazy he made me, how he would knot my tie with his eyes closed!If only…I hated how much power he had over me and he was a fool to think he was going to give in so easily, I wasn't going to give up easily.After letting out screams of frustration
Raegan's povFinding the location of the camera meant to be hidden almost seemed futile.Gunner had advised that I drop it seeing as Lucas was already in a bad mood. He agreed to check if my room was bugged once Lucas was out but I wasn't about to sit and watch.The thought that he watched me every night was infuriating and disgusting, so those nights I had crazy dreams or laid naked…he saw it all.If by any chance I had touched myself, he would have watched too, a shiver danced down my body but anger immediately wiped away those crazy thoughts.“Ugh!!” ‘Where the fuck did he place those fucking things?’ I yelled within myself and just while I was sitting, my eyes caught something red blinking.The huge teddy bear sitting just opposite was of course a perfect location, why the hell did I not think of that?Still raging, I plucked out the blocking-res eyes and immediately barged into his room.I longed for an explanation worthy of this shit he had pulled off and I wanted it now.“You'v
Raegan’s POVThe anger mixed with envy or should I say jealousy was feeling threatened to consume me as a whole and the more I laid down in my mess, the more the paranoia of being watched crept into it.I just wanted to see if there was a red light I had missed in a hurry while anger had controlled me when searching for the first.If I was being completely honest with myself, I don’t know which one of the events made me angry, the fact that I had found spyware in my room or he had asked me out when his slut has commanded, or the fact that she was in his room…on his bed!I laughed at myself as I realized what I was asking of him…the more I stayed in this house, the more it tried messing with me and my thinking.What was I even expecting? For my soon-to-be father-in-law to be faithful to me when I'm getting married to his son soon?The more I reminisced on what I had walked into the more it felt like my anger will consume me whole.Memories from the day I had caught them in the act flas
Raegan’s POVAs the phone rang my heart thumped harder and all of the negative emotions filled me causing me to hang up as the person had picked up.I wasn't sure about this, maybe there was another way to go about this. It almost felt like I was about to tread on a path so dangerous.The devil I knew was far much better than the angel I didn't know.So many what-ifs filled me and looking at the phone as the number called back I thought against joining the fight against Lucas.The number called for a while before stopping just as though Gunner came in.“Oh you are done??” he asked frowning as she stared at his call log, “Did you even make a call yet?”.“I couldn't” I started looking away from him, I too couldn't believe that I was rethinking betraying a man that cared less about me.“Do you want to talk about it?” he asked me and I immediately opened up to him.Starting from when I was kidnapped to the offer they had presented and my attempt to pass a message to Lyra which she would he
Raegan’s POV I could feel his eyes lingering on Gunner's hand which lay on my lower back in a bid to maintain my composure.I kept on telling myself to relax but it wasn't possible because I knew that if we were caught now we’d escape Lucas's wrath.I didn’t know what exactly Lucas was involved in but I was certain he wasn’t being called dangerous for the fun of it.If Gunner was eager to pull down his empire in order not to inherit it then it was as bad as the mafia.“Do you want me to chant ‘you can do it’ in your ear so you can loosen up your shoulders!” Gunner asked before stopping to face me with his pals plastered on my chin, “Or do you want to stop here?”I knew what he was doing, showing Lucas little gestures of affection so he could probably look away but knowing Lucas, he didn’t.I shook my head and smiled at him. If only Gunner wasn’t gay…marrying him wouldn’t be so bad, he was everything a girl would ever wish for.He opened the car and helped me in before driving out.I t
Raegan’s POVI watched the faces of the men immediately morph into fear and the one that specifically bullied me.“Boss!” he greeted as the man stood in his front only for him to receive a slap that echoed across the halls causing a gasp to escape my mouth.The man immediately fell to the floor but the boss in question walked away from his kneeling figure before saying, “You will pay for this embarrassment later on!”“Hi, I'm West…the man you have been communicating with on the phone” he introduced with his outstretched hand which I met halfway.The man that had kidnapped me.As he led me to a corner, I couldn't help but be curious as to why his mood had turned from I'd kill you to I'm happy to see you.We sat down and he began explaining how Lucas was a bad man and his antiques in the crime world.The more stories he told, the more I became scared of the man I was staying under his roof and how little I knew of him.Just as he let me speak, I questioned “Why me though, you could have
Raegan’s POV“Oh hey” I sarcastically greeted quite were of the watchful eyes that were being thrown my way now and then. Our stance wasn't very appropriate, I must say.“That doesn't answer my question woman,” he said as I tried removing my hands from his.I thought of something corky and insulative to say but I thought otherwise as he didn't seem like he was being mean but rather acting all friendly.Moreover, the maids around still had their heads bowed as though they were awaiting further instructions although I could still feel the scrutiny of their gazes.Judging and condensing, not that I cared at all.“Nothing, I'd just like to cook what I would like to eat, I am starving,” I said before slowly removing my hand from his tight grip.Lucas almost seemed like a bipolar person with the way his mood changed in the blink of an eye. Just a while ago he was fuming and being an overprotective father-in-law and now…he was smiling at me.He dismissed the maids and sitting down on the ki
