Under His Command

Chapter 9

Haliey's POV

OMG I can't believe I'm playing poker with the world's youngest millionaire! Just imagine how much money I could win!!!! I could probably buy a house like this one.

As I shuffled the cards I could see from the corner of my eye Lucas staring at me. I could tell something was bothering him, but I didn't know what it was.

"Call $300" I said with a grin on my face.

"Raise $400" Lucas said. 

"I'll bet another $300 dollars" Lucas said grinning

Gosh he looked so gorgeous when he grinned. Focus Haliey!!!

"Okay $700 is the total amount. Lay your cards down." I said sounding like a pro.

Lucas laid down his cards reveling 2 queens and 2 hearts.

I laid down my cards reveling 4 aces. I smiled as I scooped up my winnings. Lucas just started at me in shock.

"Wow I had no idea you could play like that." He said still looking shocked.

"Well duh! This is why the police are after me." I said obviously while putting my $700 in my backpack. Wow $900 dollars in total!

"So um what do you want to do now?" He asked me

"I'm still hungry. That lobster shell didn't really hit the spot." I said still laughing at the moment.

"Oh yeah so what do you want to eat?" He asked sounding nervous

"Anything that dosn't involve a shell with meat inside." I said with a laugh

"Okay I'll cross oysters and shrimp off the list." He said with a grin.

Oh dear what is he doing to me. He knows I can't handle being grinned at. I think he's just teasing me because he caught me staring at him.

"I'll just order pizza." He said finally deciding.

"Pizza sounds great" I said with a hungry look.

"Okay I'll be right back. Don't miss me too long." He said with a smirk

I rolled my eyes at his comment. 

I grabbed my backpack and started counting my money.

"$100, $200, $300, $400, $500, $600, $700, $800, $900 I said proudly.

I walked out the room and started going down the hall. I hope I don't get lost in this huge house. When I got to the end of the hall. I looked to the left and a huge stair case stared at me.

Wow these stairs are huge. Every step was polished not a speck of dust anywhere. It was so flawless. Just like Lucas.

I walked down the stairs and saw the living room. I sat down on the huge leather couch and grabbed the remote. I wondered where the Tv was.

I pressed the on button on the remote and a Flat screen tv popped up from behind the wall.

Woah! I did not see that coming. I should've known there was a catch when the tv wasn't sitting on the wall like a normal Tv should.

"I see you found the Tv" a voice said

I quickly turned around. It was Lucas holding 2 boxes of pizza.

"Oh hey I didn't see you standing there." I said a little startled

"I got pepperoni and chesse. I didn't know which on you liked." He said sounding generous.

Wow is he a gentlemen or what?

"Um thanks. I love both." I said with a smile.

"I'll be back with drinks." He said kindly

"Okay." I said with goo goo eyes.

As I watched "The Carrie Diaries" on tv I heard glass shatter and a door bust open. I looked over to see about 12 hefty men dressed in combat armor.

I stared at them in shock as they surrounded the living room.

Oh No! The SWAT team was here. They found me. This is the end Haliey say goodbye to all your future dreams.

"GET ON THE GROUND NOW!" said one of the SWAT team members.

My body froze like a block of ice as one of the the SWAT team members threw a bomb.
