Lydia's P.O.V

It's been two weeks since I last saw Flynn since the night we almost...and I tried to find out the truth from him. Clenching my jaw I sigh, "Allie, it's been a very long time since Arlo has done anything."  Allie looks up at me surprised by her laptop, "I was thinking...if Cassie and I could leave."

She inhaled sharply, "Where is this coming from?"

"I just really want to go back to work, I get bored all day and Cassie had this amazing opportunity to get into a very prestigious Law Firm, our life is just on hold. Don't you think if Arlo wanted to do something against us he would have?"

Licking her lips she pushed her laptop away from her, "He may be planning something big. After the death of your parents, we thought Arlo wouldn't sit quiet but Flynn and the boys got him good that day. Maybe he is just recovering."

"Could I at least go back to work then?" I ask dressing Hunter up, "I am getting so bored here,"

"Me too," Cassie said walking into the room with Hunter's bottle, "Here Dia," Looking over at Allie she smiled, "Work isn't going to harm anyone. I want to get out of here and make myself useful somewhere."

She looked back and forth between us, "I am not the person who you should be putting the work plea to. I will however try to back you up, let's go ask Dad."

Nodding I picked Hunter up taking him along with us Allie knocked on the door, "Dad?"

"Come on in Allie," Zane said, the three of us enter the room, "Am I in trouble?" He asked jokingly looking up from his papers.

"No," I chuckled, "I actually wanted to ask if Cassie and I could go back to work."

He stopped what he was doing, "Dia..."

"Hunter will stay here along with the family," I say quickly, "I am not asking to move out, it just gets a little suffocating here, not being able to go out and..."

Zane sighed, "Dia, we still don't have any information on Arlo, we don't know where or when he will be sticking again. I don't think I can give you permission to work."

"What if they train?" Allie blurted out Cassie and I looked back at her surprised, Zane took his glasses off. "If they train then if Arlo tries to do anything at least they will have enough strength to fight back."

Zane nodded, "That actually isn't a bad idea." 

Cassie and I look at each other, "But-" Cassie began, but Zane cut her off, "Two weeks, every day you two will train. Get your strength up to fight against anything Arlo might send your way and then I will 100% let you two go to work."

Clenching my jaw I looked over at Cassie who nodded, "Sounds like a deal," I sighed, "But who will train us?"

Zane smirked, "I would say the girls will but since it is such a short time, I will get the boys to help train you two."

Wait...this is actually perfect, if we train that means Flynn has to be there, Zane will force him to there meaning that maybe if I am sly enough I can get one or two answers out of him. Smiling I look over at Cassie, "Thank you, Zane."

Cassie and I walked out of the room as Zane asked Allie to stay behind to talk about some things related to the gang, "Dia, do you really think it necessary to train? I mean come on, it's been almost two months and Arlo hasn't done anything."

But why hasn't he? That's the question. Why did he kill my parents and disappear? I need to get back into the library and find answers about Amora and about Arlo. There is more to this fucking puzzle than they are showing us. "Um...Cassie, could you take care of Hunter tonight? I mean I just want a good night's sleep, please?"

Cassie looked over at me puzzled, "Yeah, but the training Dia."

Sighing I stop walking holding onto her arm, "It won't hurt to know how to keep ourselves safe now, will it? Besides you heard Zane, we train and then we get freedom. So tell me can I leave Hunter in your room tonight?"

Please say yes, please say yes, "Fine," Cassie sighs, "But rest up because I can't tomorrow night, I have a date with Stefan."

Smiling I nodd, "Thank you!"

Cassie shook her head walking away with Hunter in her arms, letting out a big breath I watched them go into her room. Biting my lip I walk into my room, time to be a spy. I know Flora told me everything about Flynn, but something just didn't add up.

I stayed awake until the clock struck 12 and then decided to sneak out of my room into the library, quietly entering the room I let out a sigh of relief beginning my search through Amora's drawers I looked for any other type of clue that might let me get to know him. Rummaging around in the room I suddenly hear the door click, my heart skips a beat. Fuck, who could it be?

Hiding behind one of the shelves I hold my breath, Please whoever it is, please go away...Please.

The room was quiet but I could hear their footsteps coming closer to me, moving closer to the walk I squeezed my eyes shut. 

"Fuck!" They yelled stumbling over something. Flynn, that voice, I know it's Flynn. Great just my fucking luck. Peaking through some of the books I try to spot him. He is standing, no,  swaying around holding a large bottle in his hand. Inhaling sharply I slide closer to the edge of the shelf so I could get a better look at him. From where I was standing Amora's things and bed were in clear sight. Flynn slumped down on the bed before rummaging through one of the drawers pulling out a piece of paper, maybe it was the same letter Flora gave me to read. Chugging back his drink he read the piece of paper wiping away his tears. "Today... it's been exactly 7 years since I had to...we said goodbye. If you had just told me, I would have never had to kill you, I would have protected you instead. You would have been my Luna, my wife, the mother of my children." He chuckled humourlessly, "Now, that girl what's her name...Lydia. Dad is saying she is the only one who can help me climb out of my sorrow of losing you, the little hole that I have dug myself, he thinks Hunter and Lydia can save me..." 

I can save him? How could Hunter and I save him? 

Flynn pulled another item out of the drawer, it almost looked like a necklace, squinting my eyes I tried to catch a better glimpse of it, "This necklace belonged to her mother. L, at least that's what I thought it was..." What? Mom's necklace. "I accidentally dropped it Amora, and the pendant broke open, inside was a drive, the same drive that you were trying to look for in our home when you were using me."

A drive? What the hell is he talking about? And why was Amora looking for it? So many questions were storming through my mind, that I didn't understand. Mom and Dad could not have been a part of this world and if they were they wouldn't hide it from me. 

"The drive that exposes all of the lost gangs, every underground gang, we thought the Hades Gang was done, but Arlo stood up...we thought the Sniper Gang was gone... but I had no idea that they were still around."

"The Sniper Gang, established in the 1920's way before we even came around."

The Sniper Gang, Flora had said that after Amora died there was no heir to it, so does that mean Drake is still running it underground? But all of this still doesn't add up, why did Mom have that pendant? 

Flynn lazily put his head down on the pillow, the bottle dropped from his hand. No, keep going, Flynn. 

Groaning I slide down against the shelves, I need that pendant, maybe that's how all my questions will be answered. If Amora was looking for it then that means there has to be something very important in it. 

Come on Lydia, you can do it. Taking a big break I crawl quietly towards the bed holding my breath I reach over to his hand that was holding on to Mom's necklace. Gently untangling it out of his fingers I pull the chain out of his grasp, I look down at the necklace, the L pendant could be opened, why had I never noticed that?

Trying to stay as quiet as possible I snap it open and there it is the small drive. Taking it out of the necklace I tuck it in my bra strap, before tangling the necklace back in his fingers just like it was before. Flynn stirred slightly alarmed I slid underneath the bed. 

Please don't wake up...please don't wake up...

He moved around a bit before settling down staying underneath the bed for another ten minutes I slid out carefully making sure not to make any noise. Biting my lip I speed walk out of the library safely before running into my room. 

Letting out a sigh of relief I slump down against the door, taking the drive out of my  bra I inhale sharply,

What was so important about this drive?
