Chapter Eleven: Bitchy Lucas
Rae’s POV I needed no soothsayer to tell me I had messed up, and he was going to be a bitch about it. Yes, he cared enough to stay with me in the hospital, and I appreciate it. I wished I had learned about it sooner, then maybe I would have kept my big mouth shut. “You have every right to be angry as I have overstepped my boundaries, but please don't send me home with him,” I urged, as he seemed hell-bent on sending me home with his guard. “It's fine, I hear, and you shouldn't be apologizing,” he shrugged, avoiding my teary gaze. I didn't understand why his lack of attention and care was affecting me this way, but I hated it. He had a hold on my emotions in a sense that I detested… I had been poisoned, and he was feigning mood swings because I had just run my mouth. There was no need to please or throw myself at him anymore. “Never mind, I'll just ride with him,” I said, interrupting his discussion with the stupid-looking guard. He scoffed and ignored me once more. He wasn't e

Chapter Twelve: Escape Plan
Rae’s POV Honestly, I didn't know if it was a trap, but seeing the look on Lucas's face, I tightened my palms around Gunner. “We don't have all morning Rae. Identify the woman who served you that morning,” he blurted, his voice sounding more sharp as his eyes glanced at my entwined hands. “It's going to be okay,” Gunner whispered before placing a peck on my head to which I sighed, having someone who had your back here was almost like holding with an angel in hell. My eyes swam over the girls who stood in front, and I could see the fear in their eyes as they avoided Lucas' blazing gaze. Just then I sighted her. She was at the end with her head bowed low. Maybe so I won't recognize her, but the poise wasn't one to miss. For a moment, her stance almost felt like she was daring me to point fingers at her and that was when fear booted in, the minute her eyes met him, and for a brief second, I was certain she had smirked, or maybe it was my paranoia speaking. Before I could point fing

Chapter Thirteen: Common Enemy
Raegan's POV The evening soon came as I walked away from the day doing nothing but scrolling through my socials with Lyra reminding me of your plan. After refreshing up, I had put on the casual wear and joined Gunner, who had already knocked to inform me he was waiting. Upon arriving down, I had expected to see Lucas, but he was nowhere to be seen, cutting down hopes of being admitted by him. “You look good enough to eat,” Gunner complimented, causing me to smack him, “that's no way to compliment a woman on your first date”. We both shared a laugh and just as though his gaze had pierced through my skin, I raised my head only to meet his… Lucas. There, he stood on the balcony with his eyes watching us, almost as if he wanted to join in. He saw me, and somehow that sent thrills down my spine. Too bad it was showing to be the last time he'd seen me. I was leaving his toxic and confusing life. A tiny flood of guilt filled me as I pondered how they would feel, but feeling how I was

Chapter Fourteen: Escape Plan 2
Raegan's POV I have no enemies, just so you know” I threw back, giving them no room to be kind to me. My kidnappers shared a laugh before saying, “You want to go home, we want to take down that flimsy son of bitch holding you down”. “Well I would have been home if you hadn't ruined my plans” I eyed them wearily but got no reaction from them. “As if, Lucas was way ahead of your plan and it would surprise you to know that he is aware you aren't at your date” “How…” “How do we know?” they asked, taking the words from my mouth, “well we know everything about Lucas, and trust us when we say you don't know him” What kind of psycho was I dealing with? Like who the fuck tells the people they had fucking kidnapped to trust them? “Raegan we need your help in bringing down Lucas” I heard them say puking me out of my thoughts causing me to burst into laughter. Longing to antagonize them, I busted into laughter whilst wondering how they thought I could be of use to them. “I can't help yo

Chapter Fifteen: A threat
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

Chapter Sixteen: Under Watchful Eyes
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

Chapter Seventeen : Unpredictable
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

Chapter Eighteen : Two Weeks To The Wedding
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

Chapter Nineteen: The plan
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

Chapter Twenty: Meeting West
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
