Dangerously Seductive (a Zayn Malik fanfiction).

Chapter 21

*LIAMS POV*
Zayn looked beyond pissed. He knew all to well that Caleb wasnt done with us, but he just couldn't leave Juliet out of this. This was the first time I've ever seen him work so hard to be with someone. I almost believed he loved her, but Zayn was never one to fall in love. The closest thing to love I had ever seen him execute was having sex, and sex surely didnt mean love. He regularly wouldn't even hold a girls hand in public, now he had Juliet under his arm at all times. He even seemed to care about people in her life, he simply cared for everything and everyone important to Juliet. Maybe after all these years of running he found someone who caught up to him.
I looked over at the girl that had entered moments after Zayn and Juliet. She was stunning. Long dark hair framing her face, a contrast from Juliet's auburn curls. I couldn't help but notice her light, hazel eyes as well. She was one of those girls that seemed so simple yet completely beautiful. All I really knew about her is that she was one of Juliet's bestfriends and she did design, I had no idea she was this gorgeous.
But now, unfortunately, wasnt the time to be blown away by a girl, I had so much more to concern myself with.

"Look I'll take Ally and follow you guys. We just need to hurry. If they come back here you know what will happen!" I yelled, making sure everyone understood and listened.
I got a crowd of weary nods, but everyone followed my demand. Ally cautiously got into my range rover, her apprehension towards the situation apparent. I watched as Juliet angrily slammed Zayn's car door, ignoring his offer to help her in.
He had better conjure up a good excuse for this because from the looks of it Juliet was fuming.

***
Ally sat in the passenger seat as I drove, following Zayn's car. I didn't exactly know where we were going. But I assumed it was to Zayn's flat.

"I'm Liam by the way." I spoke up, breaking the silence. She offered a timid smile turning to face me.

"I'm Alejandra, but everyone calls me Ally." She shyly spoke her long wavy hair falling around her face.

"I'm sorry this had to be our first meeting. Your probably really confused."

"I am. Could you fill me in at all?"
I let out a heavy sigh, not wanting to be the one to explain this to her.

"It's a bit off a long story."

"I like stories." She showed a dimpled smile making my heart beat quicken. This girl was stunning.

"Well to cut it short me and Zayn were kids and we were stupid. We made a few deals with a powerful guy and we owed him. He got his money but when you also work for a guy like this he stops caring about the money. All he wants is control of you. Me and Zayn do jobs for him and in return we have to pay him back less and less. But even after the money was given to him he said we were to valuable to lose. Naturally me and Zayn refused. The boss, Caleb, didn't like that to much."

"What exactly are these jobs?"
A silence loomed over us as I avoided the question.
"Please?" She pressed further, the innocence in her tone making me feel guilty.

"I think I better save that for another time."

"Oh. Well are you and Zayn going to be ok. Is Juliet going to be ok?"

"Zayn wants to keep Juliet safe, but if we continue to refuse to work for him he'll come after us, our homes, our families. Caleb and his men will do anything to hurt us. Even if that means going after people we love."
I intently watched her process all of what was said. I could tell she was mentally arguing with herself. Probably debating whether or not she should run or stay. What surprised me most is my hand that was placed on the gear shift was quickly taken in her much smaller one. Her tan skin contrasting with my paler complexion.

"I'm so sorry you have to go through this. You seem so sweet, so innocent."

"Baby I'm far from innocent. I've done a lot of things. If you even knew the half of it you'd jump out of this car." My eyes went back to the road, to ashamed to look at her.

"We've all made mistakes."

"Not like this."

"Well lets do this, tell me what you do, and I mean all of it. And if I'm not running to the hills then you owe me something. Deal?"

"I don't think you want to know."

"Well then you need to get to know me better." She smirked.
I couldn't help but smile, her adorable dimples showing when she grinned.

"I suppose I do."

**ZAYNS POV**
The whole ride to my flat was tense. Juliet was furious. Angry at me for lying. She had spoken less than three words to me the whole way. I tried to grab her hand but she pulled it away, her eyes never leaving the window.
When we got to my flat she still hadn't spoken a single word.

"Your not going to speak?"

"You lied to me! After all this shit! All of this hurting people and fighting and anger! You lied to me. I trusted you, I believed every word you said. Makes me wonder what else you lied about!"
I knew she was hinting about the Rebecca incident a few days prier.

"Juliet you know what happened! I did not kiss her! I thought we were past that!"

"Funny I thought you were past this Caleb bullshit. I guess we were both a little misconstrued."
She rolled her eyes shoving past me and up the stairs to my flat. A sense of defeat washed over me as she barged inside, not bothering to glance back at me. If it weren't for Liam and Allly walking in moments later I would have lost it.
We all sat in the living room each one of us showing small signs of stress. Juliet was running her fingers along her lips an action I noticed she did when stressed or nervous. Sometimes at night i'd run my thumb over her bottom lip, the gesture helping her fall asleep.
Liam was rubbing his hands together a sign I also noticed. I didn't know Ally but I assumed the tapping her fingers were doing against the arm rest of the chair was yet another sign of anxiety.

"Look everyone, I will talk with Caleb and resolve this. We had a deal, he has to keep it."

"A deals kind of like a promise isn't it." Juliet muttered under her breath.

"Yes it's like a promise." I sighed, my patience wearing thin. I was use to just fighting my way out of things, but with Juliet here things were so much more complicated.

"Oh so you can make those. Interesting."

"Are you really doing this right now!" I shouted.

"When else am I suppose to do it! God you drive me fucking mad! You want to protect me but all you ever do is put me in danger!" She shouted rising to her feet.
My whole demeanor softened, the words bringing so much hurt and guilt.
"Zayn I- I didn't meant it. I-"

"Save it." I turned on my heels and left, slamming the door as hard as I could.

**JULIETS POV**
As soon as the words left my mouth, I froze. Guilt consumed me as I watched his face turn from angry to sad in a matter of seconds.

"Zayn I- I didn't mean it. I-"


"Save it." He cut me off, his words icy and emotionless.
Before I could stop him he was out of the door, slamming it shut for the whole building to wonder what had happened.

"What did I do?" I whispered, tears filling my eyes.

"Juliet it's ok he's just angry. Let him cool off." Ally comforted coming to stand by my side.
My mind raced with places he could have went off to.

"Juliet please stop crying. Look you two stay here I'll go find him!" Liam cooed getting to his feet.
To be honest until this point I had forgotten about his presence my mind so wrapped up in Zayn.

"I'm coming!"

"I don't want you to see..." I knew he was suggesting that Zayn went to Caleb, which meant one of two things. Either Caleb would be a bloody mess or Zayn would.

"I need to be with him Liam. I think I'm in love with him."
