Adopted by O2L

Chapter 39

MEADOW'S POV

I stare out at the road ahead of me. Alex has been driving for 12 hours straight not stopping once for a break.

I had no idea where I was because I fell asleep during the drive.

"Alex where are we going?" I ask. He looks at me like I am stupid.

"Where going to Canada." He said like it was the most obvious thing.

"Why?" Alex rolls his eyes and said.

"No one will find us here, I'm taking you away from O2L. They're a bad influence on you. That's why I killed mom and dad. I wanted to protect you from them."

"No you didn't," I scream at him"you killed them because you could." I begin crying.

"No Meadow," Alex says in a calm voice, " they were going to abandon you on the streets. They didn't want you, I didn't want you to get hurt and killed. So I killed them instead."

"So you killed them for me?" I asked.

"Yes..." Alex sighs.

What if he's lying, or maybe he just wants me to be part of his gang he had when I was five years old. But what if he's telling the truth and he has done all this for me.

Can I really trust Alex? What he said does make sense and it all adds up. I'll trial it and see what happens from there.

ALEX'S POV

Meadow I falling straight into my trap.

Get her to trust me was easy. Next I'll get her to join my gang, having Meadow will make the job 100 times easier. We're going to Canada where I'll change her name and appearance so no one will recognise her.

Her job to me is to get people to trust her and then I'll come into the picture and hold them at gun point forcing them to give me their money. I'm going to be rich. I should have kidnapped Meadow years ago.
