Evangeline

chapter 13

I sush my inner self as Zane interrupts my thoughts by walking out of the bathroom with just a towel draped dangerously low on his waist. Wet hair, glistening body, mmm I almost begin to drool before Zane speaks up. "Seems like you enjoy the view?" he says with a smirk on his glum face "I don't know what youre talking about"

 I mumble before throwing my face into a pillow and internally cursing at myself for being so transparent. Chuckle is heard as he walks off into the distance. I peek to see where he's gone and don't see any sight of him, "Zane?" I speak loudly trying to find him "yes?" he says lazily I follow my eyes to a walk in closet, he must be getting dressed. "When you're done can I ask you something?" silence "Zane?"

I hear talking but I know it isn't directed at me, I think he's on the phone. Before I can think more Zane comes rushing into the room still buttoning his shirt he pulls s draw open with such force it makes me flinch, he reaches inside and my eyes widen as he pulls out a gun tucking it in the back of his shirt before picking up a burner phone and a small bag which from the corner of my eyes seems to be filled with money.

"Zane what's happening?" I say in a rushed voice. He fuffs before looking at me and zipping up the bag and walking over to me, "get up we have to go" he says sternly, what does he mean go our wedding is tomorrow, we still have things to do.

"Zane!" I yell as he leaves the room, me now hot on his tail. I reach for his arm and he instantly faces me with anger. "Whatever's going on I would like to know" the now alcohol has seemed to burn off from the situation. He scoffs and continues walking, before pulling out the phone and speaking to someone telling them to get the car ready.

I become angry with Zanes' avoidance of me and begin to become irrational in my thoughts "I'm not going anywhere with you until I know what's happening, I'm not just some toy of yours that you can throw around and take with whenever and wherever you want!" 

Before I can process Zane corners me against the wall "this is your fault" his eyes burn and make me feel weak and pathetic "oh and how could it be my fault, huh, please do inform me" I say challenging him. His eyes burn but I won't back down. I deserve the truth. Pushing off of the wall he walks to the door and towards the car. Asshole.

I stay right in my spot, two can play this game. I watch intensively as Zane hands the bag to the doorman as he quickly snaps to see me still inside sitting on the cold marble floors. I stare at him humorously, making note of how his jaw clenches and how his dark hair filters and falls on his forehead, or the way his hands are so big and veiny and.. Before I can further my perving Zane strides over in impeccable time and stands in front of me, I have a plan.

I look up to him with doe eyes and slightly parted lips. A ghost of something passes his eyes before his gaze turns cold again "get in the car" he says with a low dangerous tone. I simply just stare into his eyes, noticing the way his eyes flicker. It seems they are trying to decide what to do. My mischievous smile reaches my lips as he burns with indecisiveness.

I stand up from the step and I see him smugly smirk, I step forward my lips reaching his neck and I stand on my toes "Not nice being ignored, is it?" with that I brush past him, striding gracefully to the car as I can feel his gaze on my back. I'm starting to like this game.

Zane

I watch her, my gaze burning into her back as she walks seductively to the car, she's starting to like this game. Can't say I am, my cock throbs from the lack of attention. I follow after her and watch as she smiles at the doorman, he smiles back. I grow aggravated and twitchy as I think of her enjoying any man's presence apart from my own.

 I watch her long brown chocolate hair fall to the low of her back, her skirt sitting dangerously high on her thigh as her white long sleeve shirt clings to her upper curves. So beautiful. My cock throbs with need but I push away the thought of her before I can even allow myself to think. I walk to the car and grab firmly onto her waist, angling her to the door and opening it. 

She doesn't even bother to look my way before getting in. I walk to my door, after getting in I look over at her, she has a book in her hand. Hm Pride & Prejudice "you have bewitched me mind body and soul" the quote has always been one of my favorites.

She looks up at me with doe eyes and parted lips as the quote falls from my own. She looks as if she's about to say something but a call comes from my phone, lucas. I answer by pressing the phone to my ear "it's done sir" I sigh, "good". With that I hang up the phone and the engine roars as I start it. Let those bastards burn in hell, one day I'll be there to make sure.

About half an hour goes by and she's fallen asleep in her seat, I can't help but glance over every few seconds to take in her dangerously beautiful appearance. I begin to feel a tension in the air, the sun has just gone down and the long forest road seems a little too quiet. My adrenaline kicks in when I see movement between the trees. Ambush.

I step on the gas full throttle going from 110 to 160 in a matter of seconds. Evangeline begins to wake up. "Evangeline we have a problem, there's an ambush. I don't know how many or if we will make it out but I need you to take this"

 I shove a gun in her hand and a small pocket knife that my father left me. Her sudden adrenaline and understanding of the situation hits her fast "wait what... What do you mean? What's gonna happen?" I look towards the window and see a flare light up the sky. "Shit, look Evangeline, I need you to run and I need you to hide, run like hell. Do you understand me?" I give her a quick glance and see her green eyes well with tears and my heart aches.

Please lord, don't take her from me. There is a gunshot and my tires start spinning out uncontrollably and I have no choice but to stop. I quickly unbuckle her seatbelt and give her a look. "Go" she shakes her head in defense "Evangeline GO!" my voice rattles the car and then gets out of the car and begins running off into the distant forest.

MY chest aches and I pull the gun from my consel and quickly dile lucas. "Yes sir?" he breaths "there's an ambush. I don't know the numbers or who but I know there's many. You need to find my fiance, she's running east up the mountain and through the forest." he starts rushing pressing keys "what about you sir?" i huff "i'll manage, I always do. Find my wife or i will kill you myself" even if I have to come back from the fucking dead.
