Chapter 11

Lyra's POVI glared at the documents one more time before signing on it. The proposed contract marriage was to last just four months. This should buy I and Eleanor enough time to permanently move away from them.I finished signing the papers then handed it to Luca, who did the same. “There you go, it's all over now.” I said and stood up to leave.We both got in the car and he drove off. The car was silent as we rode home. Quite an odd moment for two people who just signed documents to be legally married.“What will you do now? My brother is probably deriving multiple ways he can gain custody of Eleanor already. We cannot let him win.” Luca suddenly said.“I, Luca, I cannot let him win. There is no us in this. Just sit back and fill your role. It'll be over soon.” I blurted.I checked back where Eleanor was sitting, she was still fast asleep. “Cassian and Maelis will try everything in their power, but I will win in the end. None of them would get my daughter.” I stated.We soon reached

Chapter 12

Luca's POVMy eyes opened to the lights in my room flickering, I sat up and continued staring at it. “Maybe she really needs to call the electrician...”I stepped into the shower next, the water ran down my body. Memories of what happened the previous night flowed in. I was still struggling to comprehend what I got myself into.After bathing, I immediately grabbed my phone and stepped out of the room. I stared around, Lyra was probably still asleep. There was no point in disturbing her, I just left.I drove to a cafe and grabbed a cup of coffee before heading for college.Things were going on as usual on campus as I drove in. I had texted Jake, my closest friend before arriving. He was waiting for me at the usually spot when I arrived. I honked at him before rolling down, “Hop in you donkey!”He saw me and quickly jumped in. We drove off and headed for our dorm. “What the hell happened yesterday, fool. I was trying to call but it never went through.” Jake stated.“ Yesterday...maybe I

Lyra's POVEleanor waved at me as I got back in the taxi, my mother held her hand tightly and watched as I left. With this new job, it would be impossible to spend the day with her like I always did.I arrived at the supermarket and paid the cab driver. “Yup, this is the right place.”I stepped out and headed for the door. The security guard gave me a nod as I walked past, I smiled faintly. I pushed the door open and walked in. There were a few people around, they stared at me for a moment before resuming with their lives.The cashier continued staring at me. I had been here before but never saw her, she also looked way younger than the person that was here before. I approached her, “Hey, good morning. I need to see the manager.”She moved her tired eyes, “The door is over there. He is waiting for you.”“Thank you.”I reached the door and knocked, no response came at first until I knocked again. “I said you can come in!” He yelled from inside.“Oh” I quickly pushed the door open and s

Lyra's POV“Mother!” Eleanor yelled as her eyes met mine. I smiled weakly as she hugged me. I stood on the doorstep for a while before shutting the door and walked inside, holding her.My mother was in the kitchen, I could hear her making something. “Lyra, you have finally returned. How was your- oh, why do you look so tired?” she asked as I walked into the kitchen.I rested my back on the wall, “My boss was one of the worst people I've met in my life. It's just my first day and he was desperately trying to find flaws in me.”She chuckled and continued cooking, allowing me to rant all I want.“The place was filled with so many weirdos. And just when I thought my day couldn't get worse, I managed to get on the nerves of the only person who spoke normally to me!”“Did you? You're so clumsy.” She said and chuckled.I folded my arms. For some weird reason, she was not taking me serious at all.I sighed and walked to the dinning room, Eleanor rushed to me and started ranting about how her

Lyra's POVEleanor waved at my mother as we stepped out of her home. “ I'll be back tomorrow, Grandma. Don't miss me too much.”My mother smiled as she waved back, I pulled her to the roadside as I flagged down a taxi. We both hopped in and was taken home.The streetlights emerged down my street as usual, I was back to the only thing I had to my name. The cab slowed down right in front of my house as I instructed.I paid and stepped out with Eleanor. My eyes drifted to the window I rented out to Luca, The light was left on. “Was that on when we left?” I asked myself.“No” Eleanor blurted.I squinted my eyes, her answer sounded so much like she understood what I was speaking about. “Come on. Let's go in.” I said.As I reached the doorway, I realized the door was unlocked. There was only one explanation to this, that Luca was home. He was the only other person with a spare key in.I walked in and stared around, there was no one around. I gazed at his doorway and it seemed locked, perhap

Chapter 16

Lyra's POVI continued staring at the letter, still struggling to comprehend what I was staring at. Luca grabbed it from me and stared at it frantically, “It really is my father, what the hell does he want?”My mind was as throbbing. Not because of who it was, but seeing how far the Rourke family will go to get what they want.I walked back to the chair and took my seat. “He wants to see me? This must have something to do with your brother, would he ask your father for help?” I eagerly asked Luca.“No, no. There is no way that is the case. If anything, Cassian would not want my father knowing about anything going on. But one thing I know for certain is that my father already knows something is going on.” Luca stated.The muscles in my body went numb, things had gone from bad to worse in such a short time. What was I going to do now that the worst person possible is involved.Theron and I were never the closest, he was a mysterious man and according to many, a very dangerous person to

Chapter 17

Lyra's POVThe next morning, I woke up and the first thing I did was to go check if the door had been fixed. I had texted John, the handyman to come fix it very early.I walked into the living room to see a white paper on the table. My mind skipped, did Theron send another message already?Slowly, opened to see if it was really him. “Sorry about the door, I fixed it. Luca.” I read slowly.I turned to his doorway, his door was shut close. “He fixed the door already?” I muttered and attempted to open the door. It opened this time.I paused when I noticed a car stop right in front on the house. It looked like John's car. I was right as he stepped out of the van afterwards.He spotted me and waved, I waved back with a faint smile. There was no longer a need for him to be here but perhaps I'll let him double check just to be sure.He stopped by the doorway, where I waited. “Good morning again, Miss Lyra. Sorry if I didn't come early enough, I had some things to attend to.” John said with

Chapter 18

Lyra's POV“About...your sister. I am sorry for what I said yesterday.” I blurted. Kira squinted her eyes, she looked so confused. “Why are you apologizing out of nowhere? You're odd today suddenly, what more should I expect?”“Wait, what? I called your sister weird and your expression changed. I figured you'd be pissed at such comment.” I stated.She gasped and laughed suddenly, “That is what you're apologizing for? Why would I be pissed that you said some words about my sister? Oh,look at her. That isn't weird to you?”Celine appeared from the backroom, wearing a dark theme outfit under her work clothes. Her lips were painted dark and her makeup was quite heavy.I nodded slightly, “I guess it is... it's already normal to you isn't it?” I asked.“Of course! She is my sister to begin with isn't she?”It finally made sense now. I had misunderstood her reaction for anger, perhaps she was just thinking of something else.This was relieving, I hadn't made a new enemy like I thought. I h

Chapter 19

Lyra's POVThe van slowly moved away from the parking lot. We drove past the entrance and my eyes caught up with Kira, it looked like she was searching for me. My heart skipped as we drove past her and she glared at the van suspiciously.I was begging and hoping she would see me from outside but she just continued staring till the van drove off. The tinted windows prevent anyone from seeing absolutely anything.“That wench, she has been staring at the van since we were scoping out the area. I can't believe she caused us so much trouble.” One on the men suddenly said.Kira was right all along, the black van wasn't an ordinary vehicle!“Made us go through so much trouble. We had to hire an old woman and start a new plan, that is absolutely ridiculous!” Another man added.I froze, were they talking about the old woman I helped or someone else. Now that I think of it, it was thanks to the old woman needing my help they were able to lure me out of the Supermarket.“Excuse me, did the old w

Chapter 20

Lyra's POVI was led into the only house in sight, there was nothing but a vast land ahead and behind us. I had no idea where in the world I was.“This way.” I was led into the house, the door opened and we walked in.There was a huge living room with what looked like extremely expensive interior designs. Surely this belonged to Theron, he is well known for extravagant things like this.A farm looks like what a lot of people would consider their dream-home.At the end of the room sat Theron himself alone. He was on his phone until he noticed our presence. Slowly, he dropped the phone and gazed at me for a while.“Sit.” He ordered, his voice carrying so much authority, I didn't need to hear it twice before quickly sitting down.My fingers trembled as I sat there, waiting for what he'd say. I avoided eye contact with him. From the very beginning, I have hated staring into his eyes.Everytime our eyes met, it looked like he'd ordered I get killed immediately. I always wondered how such a
