Lyra's POV
With Melissa's determination, i guess i had no option but to say"As you wish"
She smiled at me, while the men glared at me
"If she wants to be there, I can't say no- I'm sure she is considering all the risks" i said looking at Melissa who gave me a decisive nod
"With my dad being a killer and my husband being a potential partner in all of this- i don't really have a lot to consider" she said looking at the men
They didn't speak for what seemed like hours, and both me and Melissa took it as our cue to talk
"So its all set" she said once agin clasping her hands together
"I guess"
"If you're sure" the boys mumbled and i smiled at Melissa
She really is stubborn
After an afternoon full of catching up, and making plans- everyone went to their homes exhausted
I took a shower and went outside to my favorite spot- the graveyard
I sat there for hours, not knowing why
I just liked being there- in her presence
I talked to her- told her all about Arthur and the plan. For some reason- opening up to her made me feel guilty
I don't know if I'm doing the right thing, but this betrayal is important isn't it?
The thoughts consumed me and before i knew it, the warm afternoon had turned into a chilly evening, with the sun setting right above the horizon
"I guess I'll see you next time" i brushed her name, and then got up
Soon, i headed back to my house
By the time i got there- it was dark
Usually I don't really overthink- but something about this darkness made me anxious as i took the left turn to enter my street
I sat up a little, slowing my car down a little
I observed my empty surroundings carefully as the car approached the iron door, and as soon as it did
I saw some ruffling behind the door
It was some men- who definitely weren't from my clan
I stopped the car- just outside the door and waited for something to happen
Nothing did, and i let out a sigh
'Maybe its my intuition' my brain thought as i changed the gear again, and the car moved forward a little
Once again, just like before- i saw and heard immense ruffling
But this time- something caught my attention
A shotgun
"I'm being watched" i mumbled as realization hit me, and without making it obvious- i picked up my phone
I called the one person i trusted alot and after a few rings- he picked up
"Hello?" He said and i softly gave him a brief
"I'm texting you the address, come here" he said and i gulped
"I'll ask my men to keep you company, so don't get scared if you think you're being followed" he said again and a small smile appeared on my face
I ended the call and revved the car away from the iron doors, drifting it smoothly in another direction
I immediately stepped on the gas pedal and as expected, i was met with the sound of another roaring engine
I was being followed now
I kept my calm and drove around the neighborhood for a while- and after confirming my suspicions, i once again dialed a number
"Second right- and my men will join you" he said and i stepped on the gas even more
The speed crossed 120 and the adrenaline rush washed through me
I took the second right, and stormed through the street
Soon- my vision was met with a very familiar mansion
After going through all the doors, guards and security- i stopped outside the front door
As i got out of the car and walked through the driveway
My eyes met his, and for once- I didn't hide my feelings after seeing his face
"Arthur"
