I never thought I would be in my living room with Lucas, I never thought I would have to see him again, the idea of having him stand beside, it led to chills down my spine, the only thing I could think about was him and Brie, how I was them on bed and the words that escaped his lips after I saw him.

“What do you want Lucas, I have places to be.” I whispered, I needed to go pick up my son, he would be worried if I am not there and I don’t want Heather to bring him over, I can’t let anyone see him.

“To talk.” He whispered and I nodded,

Was this about Blake, or about how he has come back to ruin my life again.

“Just tell me what’s going on, please, I don’t go back and forth with you, you don’t get to barge into my life after rejecting me and taking everything away from me, I need you to know I am not the old Rachel that you know of, I am not the woman you can toy with, I am not someone you can talk to anyhow, you have five minutes, To get the hell put of here or I will jump out that window and leave.” I gritted through my teeth

“Where are you going to go, you don’t have a home, you don’t have any money, all because you dated the wrong guy.” He said and I smiled, how did he know I am homeless, he must have made down research, there is no surprise to that

“I guess you will know a lot about me going for the wrong guy.” I smiled, he was all kinds of wrong, if we were not in a secret relationship, and my parents found out that we were mate, I would have rejected him without no troubles and he would have done the same, I would have continued to live my life. Maybe I would have found someone else.

I would have had the life I always wanted, not that I am complaining now because I love my son, he is everything to me? I care for him and without him, I would not have been the greatest mother he always says I am, I would have been something else.

I shrugged off the thoughts when I saw Lucas pacing across the room, he has a frown on his face.

“I had a reason for that night Rachel.” He said and I smiled.

“I could care less about it, it won’t change the fact that I lost everything and so tell me why you are here, why are you so bothered about Blake, I know for one it’s not because of me, the great Aloha Lucas would never leave his empire and come in here for a woman, so tell me, what did he do to your pack, what has he caused to your family.” I smiled.

There is an ulterior motive and that’s why he is here, not because of me.

“I want to offer you a deal.”

“No.” I whispered, he moved closer to me and his scent filled my nostrils, I could still feel my wolf getting excited when he was close to her, but I didn’t care, she didn’t feel the emotions that I felt, she didn’t know what it was. “Whatever it is, it’s a no.”

“I’m afraid you would have to accept it Rachel, I will give you all that you want, all your money back, your house, your work place and your bank being unfrozen, you can get all you want, one one condition.” He said, his tone was serious and his eyes were on mine. “You will be my fake girlfriend for a month.”

“You have Brie, believe me you don’t need me.” I smiled and his eyes darkened, why did he want to use me again, what was he young to gain and what did it have to do with Blake, why will be even give me all that I lost, did he hate Blake, was this his way of getting back to him.

Lucas is hiding something from me and I am going not going to be any part of this.

“You have all day to think about it Rachel, if not you will be on the streets, you will have nothing and no one to take care of you, or help me, help me and I help you.”

“Why?:” I whispered against my breath. “Why come back to use my pain, to use my grief to your advantage; have you not done enough Lucas, why do you feel the need to drag me to be any part of your life, fo be any part of this, you don’t even care that you being here could endanger me and my-“ I was about saying when I went quite.

His eyes turned into a question and I looked away from him, I wasted no time in taking my bag and I headed out of the room, to my surprise he didn’t follow me and he didn’t even try and stop me, he is horrible, he hasn’t changed a bit, maybe he has changed for the worse.

I could still hear his voice echoing in my mind, the words that escaped his fucking lips, it’s like each time he spoke; he didn’t speak to make me feel better, he spoke so that I would hate myself, he spoke so that I would hate everything that he has done to me, I guess I fell in love with the wrong man, my parents were always right.

I got to pick Ethan in no time, Heather was worried when she saw the way I looked but I can’t drag her into this, I thanked her and I left.

I had a few clothes packed inside of my bag, for both me and him, he looked so precious and I had wished I made better decisions for us, better decisions that would make us not be where we are. He deserves to be happy and have a good life.

My eyes met his and he gave me a smile.

“We are going to an special place today, just for a little while, it’s not going to be that great at first but you will like it.”

“Where is it?.” Ethan asked, his eyes were looking out of the window and I could see him from the mirror.

“A motel.” I whispered so low that he didn’t hear. “It’s called a special place.” I said “and while we are there, we can have all of the junk we want.”

“No veggies.” He asked and I nodded, that was enough to make him happy and make him smile, I could tell it’s going to make him happy but it’s only going to take a few hours before Lucas will find out and the day is going by faster than I wanted jt to, I was scared and worried that he will come for an answer and seeing Ethan, I can tell maybe I did have one.
