Trusting The Treacherous Renegade

Part 25

"I'm not leaving without them," I repeat for the hundredth time. Kayn drags his hands through the dark hair eying me with judgment. He assumes I'm as cold as him. Only thinking about my own survival.

"They'll be fine. Stop being so stubborn." He complains and grabs me a to lead me out the door. I stand my ground, refusing to move an inch.

"They are my family," I argue. I'm not leaving them behind. Nor am I going anywhere with him.

"Fine! I'll get you out then I'll go in and get them." Kayn rolls his eyes at me, I give him a quick nod then let him lead me out of the room.

"You know I don't trust you right?" I look up at him. His hand lets go of my arm to grab my clutched palm. I relax and let him hold it. His touch is making my hand burn. I hate that he has that effect on me.

"You'd be stupid if you did Gianna." He mutters while leading me down the stairs.

"Why is it empty?" I look around the large lobby but no ones there.

"As you know, I have a way of getting my wishes come true." He stops in front of the door and gives me a smirk.

"Don't you feel bad, manipulating people?" He opens the door and leads me out. I watch the side of his face. His smirk is growing.

"Not when it's saving our lives. Get us a car, I'll be back in ten." He lets go of my hand and brushes my cheek with his fingers.

"You're fascinating" Kayn tilts his head, studying my face.

"What?" My voice trembles a bit as his fingers are waking up the skin on my cheek.

He lets out a chuckle, his breath brushing light against my face. The crystal eyes go down to my lips, I nervously sink my teeth on it.

Taking in a sharp breath.

The air between us is changing, it's almost electrifying. He moves his face closer to mine and I freeze.

My eyes look down at his lips, I curse at myself but can't seem to stop.

He leans in closer, before our lips brush he stops, I hold my breath.

"You're crushing on me aren't you babycakes?" I look up to meet his arrogant face. His eyebrows wiggle at me.

I push my hands against his chest. Getting him away from me. He takes a step back, the hand falls from my face leaving me cold, alone.

"You're so full of shit Kayn." I roll my eyes and turn away from him. I hear his loud chuckles behind me.

"The color on your face tells me another story." He shouts behind me. I ignore it and start the search for a car.

Asshole.

I'm running to the gates, I need to get a car. If this will end like the other times we did something reckless we need a quick exit. I press open and the gates slowly obey.

The hole driveway is filled with cars, my eyes are glued on a Tesla. Never tried one of them before.  

I rush to it and open the car, the McQoid never bothers to lock theirs. You'd be stupid to steal from them, but that I am I guess.

"Gianna." I hear someone behind me before I have the chance to enter the car. I freeze and slowly turn around.

"Carter? How did you..." He rushes to me and grabs me in his arm. I'm struggling to breathe. "Carter." I manage to get out as I'm trying my best to push him away from me.
