Under His Command

Chapter 14

Lucas's POV

After I finished plotting my revenge my cell phone started ringing. I picked up the phone and looked at the caller id. It was an unknown number. I pressed the answer button and waited for the person to speak.

"Aye yo is this my man Lucas.? Said the strange voice

"Um yes this is Lucas. Who is this?" I replied still a little unsure about the person who this voice belonged to.

"Come on man don't act like you don't remember me." continued the unknown voice.

"...I really don't know if you could just give me a quick reminder, i would really appreciate it.." I said with hesitation

"Bruhh its yo homie from high school Tommy T!! said the strange voice.

"Ohhhh Tommy whats up man? How's it goin? I replied feeling stupid for not remembering my high school friend who was like a brother to me.

"Eh life could be better. I guess." he replied with a boring tone

"Wow i cant believe its you! Are you out of prison yet? I asked 

"Duhh that's why i called cuz tomorrow night we are goin to celebrate!!!!!" he said in a shouting tone

"Cool where are we goin T?" i asked anxiously

"Are you really gonna ask that question? This is Tommy your talking to. We are hittin the club! So get your dolla bills ready Lucas. We finna drop a couple franklins and pop some bottles.Said the excited voice

I laughed in agreement.

"You are totally right man. What was I thinking? So I'll see you tomorrow night at 10pm." I said still laughing

"You know it Luc peace out!" He said ending the conversation

Before I could reply he hung up the phone. I laughed quietly to myself remembering all the good times we had in high school.

While I was thinking to myself my eyes happened to stumble across the yearbooks that I had thrown on the floor in rage and anger.

A smile spread across my face as my plan began to come together.

Haliey's POV

I woke up from a terrible nightmare shivering in my own pool of sweat while panting like a just ran a marathon. 

I looked at the clock in my bedroom it read 2:07am. I groaned as I fumbled to get up. I walked to the door, but i suddenly stopped when i heard voices downstairs in the living room. 

I quietly opened my door so i could hear the voices.

The first voice I made out was my mother's which gave me some relief to know there weren't any intruders in the house.

The second voice sounded like a man for sure but i couldn't tell whose it was. A few guesses came to mind but nothing really seemed to add up.

As I tried to move closer to the mysterious conversation that was going on at 2am in the morning, my toe jammed into the railing that divided the stairs from the side of the house. 

I let out a loud scream as i held my toe in agony. i quickly covered my mouth as I had just realized what i had done.

I listened for the voices once more, but discovered that they had stopped talking.

"Did you hear something." My mother said

"I didn't hear a thing." said the manly voice.

"Okay, so as i was saying how much money will it take for you to disappear from my daughter's life?" said my mother.

I quietly gasped as i heard my mother talking about me to this odd figure.

The man laughed and said "No amount of money could make me disappear from her life. She needs to be punished for her improper actions.

"I give you $2,000.00 take it or leave it." my mother said with confidence

The man laughed again " I don't think you understand what I'm saying. I am a multi-billionaire. The watch I am wearing right now costs more than your entire mortgage."

I felt my heart skip a beat as I quickly recognized who the voice belonged to. That cocky, selfish, manly voice belonged to no one other than Lucas Hamilton.

I couldn't believe what my ears were hearing. My mother was trying to get him to leave me alone. After what that man was done for me. Helping me escape the S.W.A.T. team, making me breakfast, taking me out to dinner, and the passionate kiss we shared.

I felt like I had been hit in the head with a brick. My heart ripped away from my chest and taken away by the woman I called my mother.

I tried to listen for more information but that action was soon cut off by the sounds of someone approaching the stairs. I quickly ran back into my room, carefully hopping into bed without even letting a breath of air escape my lungs.

I slightly closed my eyes so I could see who was coming up the stairs. I tried to control my breathing and heart beat as Lucas came into my bedroom.

He stood at the doorway watching me. Part of me wanted to get up and go hug him, but another part of me told me to stay in bed. As I focused on his face I could tell he was angry about something, angry with someone, but all that anger seemed to be directed towards me, but why?

Lucas POV

As I approached Haliey's room I tried to hide my anger behind a fake smile because if i didn't I would be walking out of here in handcuffs and she would be dead, but i can't kill her yet because i want her to suffer before shes dies so she knows how I felt without my father around.

I opened the door and approached her bed. I stroked her hair with my hand, carefully tucking each strand of hair behind her ear.

I left her backpack by the nightstand where she would easily find it. I looked at her one more time before planting a kiss on her forehead.

I quietly exited the room and went downstairs to where her mother was waiting.

"Did you leave her backpack by the nightstand?" her mother asked

"Yes I did. Just like you said to." I said

"Good, now you can leave." her mother said

"This is not the end. You might have managed to threaten me with calling the cops, but just know that when Haliey comes crawling back to me. I'll be waiting to receive her with open arms. The trap is set. All I need is for the little mouse to come and play." I said leaving in anger.
