He knows. He knows about Luke being a criminal. God knows what else he knows.

"How do you know this?" Luke spoke easily.

"I overheard Briar's conversation with you" He answered.

I narrowed my eyes at him. "You were spying on me?!" I took a step forwards towards him "Hell no"

"Well, you did look suspicious, then you totally changed your voice from this to something utterly sexy, so yeah, I spied on you." He told me with a slight smirk. "You are not what you seem, Briar Rose. You are a mystery and I am going to find out sooner or later"

"You will do nothing about this, Dylan. You cannot get involved in this, it's not the right world for you. This-! This is reality for us!" Luke's anger was growing, and he was getting impatient. I took his hand in mine, and rubbed cirles with my thumb slowly to try and attept to calm him down.

"Then why is Briar involved? Huh?! It's not the right world for her either! She is too innocent to be involved with a criminal!"

"She walked into my world herself, Sparks! She chose it! And if you think she's innocent, then you really dont know her at all then" Luke hissed.

I pursed my lips, and Luke continued;"You dont actually know her, Dylan. You dont know her at all. She has an appearance to keep up and you cant stop her from living her own life. Dangered or not. You have to leave her alone, Sparks, or I swear to God, I will hunt you down. Ever heard of the tracker?" He raised a brow.

Dylan nodded.

"Well, we met up with him just earlier. We can give him a call right now, and I will find out every single piece of information about you from the second you were born."

"Luke, no" I spoke up quietly.

"What, sweetheart?" Luke asked me, glancing at Dylan with a slight smirk when he saw his clenched jaw.

"You will leave him alone, okay? He is not going to be involved any longer." I spoke seriously, meaning business.

"You cant expect me to-"

"Yes, Sparks. I can. Sure, we had sex, but I was blackout drunk and you werent as bad ass me. You had long enough to talk to me, yet you chose now. I want you t-"

"Wait- Hold the fuck up, you took advantage of her?!" Luke sounded angry. I mean really angry. In fact, I think that the word I'm looking for is furious. Beyond furious.

Luke ripped his hand away from me, and started advancing towards Dylan.

"Luke, I told you to leave him" I warned, quickly running up to Luke.

Before he could lay a hit on Dylan, the walls suddenly had holes ripping through them roughly, speedily, with such force- until I felt a pain in my shoulder and below my right breast. I let out an audible gasp, and I was pulled to the ground quickly. It then stopped.

"What the hell was that?!" Sparks yelled, then his eyes laid upon me. And widened.

"Drive by shooting- Hey, Hey, Charlie!" Luke had a phone pressed to his ear, and was knelt beside me, his top was no longer on him, but wrapped rightly around my body to put pressure on the wound under my breast, and his hand was on my shoulder. "Charlie, I need you to come to Dance 101 Studio. Why? You're really asking me that?! Drive by shooting thats why! Briar's been hit twice - yeah I'm putting pressure on it I'm not stupid! Just get here!" He hung up.

I winced at the pain. "You know, Luke, it actually really hurts more than those Die Hard films make it out to be. Those liars"

He chuckled. "Charlie's on his way, he's only round the corner right now. Kind of interupted a deal that he was making" He made an awkward face.
