Lye's pov:

How did Liver get us in this mess. I mean I know how, because he's an idiot who doesn't be as careful as he should, but how?

"At least we'd get a free race track if we win" I swear if he continued talking he wouldn't have a tounge to be able to talk with.

"How did you even get us into this?" Blade asked. It seemed like he was more reasonable than me and Creed were.

Me and Creed were practically on the verge of trying to kill him.

Liver explained how he got us into it but I couldn't care less on how he did, all I cared about was how we were gonna get out of it.

Both ways were dangerous as hell. If I did it by myself at least it wouldn't have the others get hurt, but knowing them they would suspect something was up if there was only one person who showed up.

God we really got messed up this time.

"There's no other way we can solve it apart from go through with the games" Allia stated.

There's no way in hell I'm letting her go through with this.

"No." I commanded, it was not a question.

"Lye we have to" she said softly.

"There's no way in hell I'm letting you go through with this." I had already lost many people in my life. I wasn't gonna allow her and Sadie be the next people I lost.

"If you think there's anyway in hell I'm going to allow you guys to go through this alone your sorely mistaken" I admired her bravery, but I couldn't lose her.

"And what if we lose? What if I lose you? Then what." I was fucking terrified of losing her, she was so important to me, I wasn't going to lose her because of this. I couldn't. We were gonna grow old together and have children and children. There was no question in it.

"You won't. And if you do at least I'd die by your side." She stated. "You don't want to lose me? Think about how I don't want to lose you."

I sighed, I knew there was no way of convincing her. "I swear to Loki if I do lose you-"

She cut me off "you won't."

As we arrived at the race track I kept cracking my knuckles as an anxious reaction. I knew how bad games like this were.

I felt Allia place her hand over mine which helped calm me slightly. "Princess.." I sighed.

"We'll be ok" she reassured as she kissed me softly. Her miss helped me relax a little but I was still internally raging.

We went to where all the groups were and I wrapped a protective arm around Allia and made sure Sadie stayed close to us.

"Ah I was starting to think you wouldn't show up" if our lives didn't depend on him I would knock him out in one punch.

"What made you think that?" I heard blade ask. Most would say he was calmer than us, truthfully he just knew how to hide his rage better.

"Just thoughts" The man smiled at him and Blade gave what only we could tell was a fake one back.

"Now that everyone has arrived, may you all enter your vehicles and let the games begin" I heard a voice over the speakers.

"Take Sadie with you" I heard Allia whisper to me before going over to a different vehicle. Fuck what was her plan? Was she more afraid for mine and Sadie's lives? I wouldn't put it past my future wife she always cared about others first.

I held out my hand for Sadie and she instantly took it. I could tell her fear and it made me realise why Allia had told me to take her with me, she needed my protection and comfort more than her at this moment.

I guided Sadie to my lambo and took a breath of air before climbing in. I kept replaying Allia's reassuring words in my mind to calm me, only being able to hope that we would win.

As the flag flew through the air I stepped on the pedal and sped us down the track, praying to Loki for some sort of miracle to happen.

I couldn't find Allia's car no matter where I looked. Where the hell is she?

A deafening siren rang through the track, showing that the games had just become alot more dangerous. We were now allowed to use weapons.

Just minutes after the siren rang a bomb landed in front of me on top of another car and I turned as quickly as I could to the other side. Fuck.

Flashes of what could have happened if I wasn't careful enough went through my mind. This wasn't a game I could play without a care in the world, one slip up and all that would be left of us would be our corpses.

As bullets were shot at us and bombs were thrown in front of us I kept seeing a black car protect or somehow help each car of the group. Making sure we were all protected no matter what. They were less focused on speed and more focused on protection.

Technically it wasn't cheating but it wasn't directly playing by the rules either. It was the perfect plan.

By the time the race had finished all of us had managed to cross the finish line safely apart from the black car. Where was it? I swear to god if she didn't make it out alive.

"Miss me?" I turned around to see Allia standing behind me.

"How the-" I was stunned to see her standing there without the car.

"Magic" she giggled. I swear sometimes I wonder how insane my darling truly is.
