Zayn's POV

          "Will?" Mari squeaks.

         Doniya pushes through both me and Mari and is now outside on the porch, taking in the sight off Will and his men.

         "YOU FUCKING SON OF A BITCH!" she shouts before running towards Will with a gun in her hand.

         "STOP DONIYA!" I shout before running after her.

         "I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!" she shouts.

         But I'm too late...

         A gun shot fires and the sound echoes through the several trees around the house. I watch as Doniya falls to the ground and I sprint faster towards her. She lands knees first into the snow and grasps her stomach in pain. "Little bitch," she inhumanely growls.

         "NO!" I shout before running towards my sister and standing behind her for support.

         I pull out my gun and shoot the man who shot Doniya. He falls down instantly, and I can see his blood surrounding him. The other men don't even attempt to move and Will continues to look at me.

         "He was useless anyway," he shouts at me before laughing.

         I turn my attention back to Doniya who is biting her lip. "I'm alright Zayn," she says as she tries to stand up. I help her stand up and she winces in pain. "He got me in the side. No biggie." I watch as a smirk spreads across Will's face as he is standing about 15 feet away from us. I feel footsteps coming from behind us.

         "Doniya?" Harry says with a worried look spread across his face. "Are you alright?"

         "I'm just dandy," she says sarcastically before rolling her eyes.

         "Yeah, she's alright Harry," Niall says. "She's still as sarcastic as ever."

         I watch as Doniya's eyes freeze on someone behind me and I watch as her eyes turn a darker shade of brown.

         "You fucking bitch!" she says through her teeth. I turn around and realize that she is staring at Mari. "You fucking set us up!" Doniya is now in Mari's face, with her fists clenched beside her. Harry holds Doniya back in order to prevent her from hitting Mari. "I told you Zayn!" she shouts before looking at me. "She ratted us out! She told Will where we were so he could probably kill us. This was all a part of her little plan. Too bad it didn't work you little-"

         "No I didn't! I swear I didn't!" Mari shouts before grabbing onto my arm. "I don't know how he got here!"

         "She's right you know!" I hear Will shout from the distance and I clench my knuckles.

        "Why are you lying Will?!" she shouts back.

         "No she didn't!" I shout.

         "Yes she did," he responds. "She's been working with me ever since you took her. She is my sister after all! I have no reason to lie to you Zayn. She's told me everything. How she's made you fall for her," he laughs. "It's quite pathetic actually."

         I turn my attention back to Mari and she looks at me with her now red eyes. "Zayn," she says as a tear rolls down her cheek. "Don't believe him. I would never do anything to hurt you! You know that!" The tears are now rapidly rolling down her cheeks. "Please believe me! I wouldn't plot against you Zayn...I-I love you."

         I love you.

         Her words hit me and I feel my heart stop.

         "Don't believe that bullshit Zayn!" Doniya says while looking at me. "She's been fucking using you all along. Can't you see?"

        I begin to stare off in space and I block everything out.

         What if everything was a lie?

         What if all the feelings she has for me is a lie?

         What if she has been playing me all along?


        I-I believe him. I believe him.

         I gulp and turn my attention back to Mari.

         "All I want is my sister back Malik!" Will shouts. "I'm not here to fight you! Unless you don't wanna give her over, then I will."

         "Where are my sisters at DeSanta!" I shout.

         "I will exchange your sisters for mine."

         I take one last glance at Mari and I grab her wrist.

         "What are you doing Zayn?!" she shouts while trying to get out of my grasp.

         "Stop fucking moving," I growl through my teeth. I lift Mari over my shoulder and start to walk over to Will.

         "YOU PROMISED ZAYN!" she shouts while hitting me in the back.

         "Well you lied to me Mari," I growl. "Now we are even. You don't deserve to be here. You are just like your brother, a deceiving little bitch."

         As I get closer and closer to Will, his smile gets larger. I watch as his men tense up as I get closer and closer. They all look at me in fear and I can't help but chuckle.

        Ha, I intimidate them.

         Moments later, I am in front of him and I instantly realize how much he looks like Mari.

         I set Mari down on the ground and Will automatically pulls her into his grasp.
 
         "Now where are my sisters DeSanta?" I ask through my teeth.

         "Right over there man," he says before pointing into the distance, where I see two men walking beside my sisters.

         "Waliyah? Safaa?" I shout.

         "Zayn?!" they both shout.

         Suddenly I am knocked down by both of my sisters, and I hug them as hard as I can. "Thank God you are both okay," I say while hugging them. I shake the snow off my jacket and I cannot help but smile at my sisters.

         "Well now that our deal has finished, I must be going," Will says before looking at me and my sisters. I look over at Mari, who is still crying. I turn around and hold both of my sisters hands. I begin to walk away until I hear Mari calling for me.

         "Zayn," she says through her tears. "Please, don't leave me. He's lying to yo-"

         "You have the nerve to call him a fucking liar!" I shout at her before turning around. "You've been lying this whole fucking time. You've lied about everything. Fucking everything!"

         "Zayn, I haven't been lying!" she shouts back. "I fucking love you!"

         I cannot help but laugh at her. "No, no you don't Mari. It was a part of your little game. But guess what? I don't give a shit about you. I don't fucking love you either. So let's just leave it at that okay? Goodbye Mari. Have a nice fucking life."

         I turn around and as I walk further and further away, Mari's sobs get quieter. I still hear her calling after me repeatedly, but I don't have the urge to turn around.

         It was a lie. Everything was a lie.

         "Who was that Zayn?" Waliyah asks me.

         "Nobody. She was nobody."

         "It sure didn't seem like she was nob-"

         "Shh," I say and cut her off from saying anything else. I walk over to the boys' and see that Liam and my sister are missing.

         "Liam took Doniya downstairs to fix her up," Niall says.

         I nod my head and then Harry walks over to my sisters and hugs them both. "We are all happy that you both are okay," he says while hugging them.

         "Wow, you both have grown up so much!" Louis says before hugging them.

         "C'mon, let's go inside," I say. "It's freezing out here."

         I walk up to the porch with my sisters behind me and open the door for them. I let everyone in before I take one last glance outside.

         Mari's not there anymore...which is a...good thing.

         She's a liar.

         And I fucking hate liars.
