Fake Friends:
Once they stop talking to you,
they start talking about you.Adalynn's POV
Ashton brings us to a forest and parks his motorcycle. Does this dumbass think he can just murder me and bury me in the woods? And here I thought he was a good guy.
I immediately pin him against his motorcycle before he can attack me. "Who are you working for?" I ask, scanning the area for other attackers.
He swiftly escapes my hold and pins me against the motorcycle. "What are you talking about?" He asks, confused.
I push him away and hold up my fists. "Who sent you to kill me?" I ask. "You don't bring a random person to a forest and expect not to get killed," I say. It's not even a good place to hide bodies.
He laughs and says, "Oh, that... I thought you were talking about- Never mind. There's a spot in the forest that shows a great view of the city, and I wanted to show you."
I slowly relax and say, "Okay... But if you try killing me, just know I can kick your ass."
"Sure..." He says, not believing me.
"I'm not joking. I've been trained." I say, pretending to make lame karate moves.
Our phones ring simultaneously, and I see I have a message from Mila.
✨ Main Ho ✨:
Mayhem ambushed another trade
Want me to get you?Yes, please
"Um, I have to go home. My mom needs something from me." I say.
"Okay, I'll take you home," Ashton says, putting away his phone.
"I'll kill you some other time." He says as a joke.
"Haha," I say sarcastically.
*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*
I get off his motorcycle and say, "Thanks for the ice cream."
"No problem. We should do it again sometime." He says with a smile. Why does he have to be so damn cute? Excuse me?
"Maybe," I say with a playful grin.
"I better get going. Thanks for today Lynn." He says.
"You're welcome," I said, waving.
A few minutes later, Mila arrives, and I get in her car. "Did they get anything from us?" I ask.
"No, but there's a lot of them." She says, driving us to the base.
"How did they even find the trading location?" I ask.
"I'm not sure, but there has to be something we're missing. Almost every trade has had an interruption from them." Mila explains.
Soon, we get to the base and run in. "What exactly happened?" I ask.
"We chased them off, but a few of our weapon shipments went missing. Sorry boss..." One of them says.
"Is anyone injured?" I ask.
"Nothing life-threatening." He says.
"That's all that matters," I respond. "We're not sure how they're finding out about our trades, but to be safe, we'll add more guards around the perimeter. If anyone notices anything shady happening, you tell me."
