Lydia's P.O.V.

Flynn sat in front of me lighting a cigarette, taking in some smoke he raised an eyebrow at me. "What did you do with the drive, Lydia?"

Swallowing harshly I avoid his gaze, "I just...I-" Taking a deep breath I continue, "I saw all the details, about the different gang and-" Does he know about me? I mean my family?

"And?" He said raspily before taking another drag of the cigarette, 

"Could you please not smoke around Hunter? It's bad for his lungs Flynn." I said quickly, 

Rolling his eyes he took one last drag before throwing it out the window, "Don't change the topic, Lydia, what else did you see?"

"Have you not gone through the drive?" I snapped, "Why are you asking me?"

Flynn raised an eyebrow at me before walking over to my bed dragging a chair from my desk he sat right in front of me, intimidatingly, "I saw what was in the drive, I want to know what you saw."

Taking a deep breath I said, "I told you, Flynn, I saw all the different gangs and everything they are involved in."

"Name them then," He sighed

"I-I don't r-remember them like that."

"Lydia," He said firmly, "Name them,"

"K-Knights, Psychos," I whispered leaning back on the bed, trying to slip out of his grip but he pulled me closer by the back of my shins, "Cobras, S-Sniper" I hesitated as I mentioned Amora's gang, "Azar, Hades, and Phillers."

Bringing his hand up he gently brushed his fingers against my cheek, "There's one more," He whispered to me zoning in on my lips. 

"I-I don't know what you are talking about."

"Lying will only get you in more trouble, Lydia,"

My breath hitched, "Demons," I said barely above a whisper closing my eyes. 

Flynn chuckled huskily, "That's right, the Demon Gang." Keeping my eyes closed I tried to get my mind off of his hand on my waist, his touch...it was burning me. I was scared of him, if he could hurt Amora, I was nothing in front of him. 

"I-I swear I don't know anything," I whispered, "I didn't know that my parents were a part of all of this. I have always been kept really far from all of this please Flynn believe me. Growing up I was told that we didn't have anyone, it was just us and our little family."

Flynn's hand went from my cheek to my neck I went fridged in his arms. He was going to kill me. "You look so sexy when you are nervous Lydia," He whispered in my ear. 

My breath hitched my eyes fluttered open, "W-What?" Where did that come from?

"I know you didn't know anything about your background, I have known that since I met your parents. Your dad and mom didn't want you to be involved in anything, the leaders right now are you, Aunt Majesty, and Uncle Noah, your cousin Harvey is the Boss at the moment."

Letting out a relieved breath I tried to move back from him but his grip tighten on my neck, "But what is really pissing me off." He snapped as I gasped from his sudden action, "Is why you are nosing into my past, Lydia."

"I have a right," I snapped back, "I have a right to know what happened to you Flynn because I have to deal with you for the rest of my fucking life. Whether you like it or not we have a child together and that child is sleeping over there."

"So you are trying to understand me?"

"Yes!" I said exhausted, "Flynn it has almost been a year since I met you, and everything I got to know about you is either from your mom or I have to bud into corners of the house that have answers to my questions."

Tightening his grip Flynn looked down at me in anger, "You want answers Lydia? Fine, tonight is the only night I will answer them, but in return, you will answer all the questions I ask you."

"Fine," I say struggling to breathe a little grabbing onto his hand, "But first let go,"

Letting go of my neck he leaned back in his chair, "Ask,"

"I saw..." I began, "You shooting Amora, did you really want to Flynn?"

"What kind of stupid question is that Lydia? Of course, I didn't want to but she betrayed me,"

"Over what?" I asked quickly

"This stupid drive, apparently if Drake, her dad got his hands on it, he would know everything about everyone and he wanted to take each and every one down and become the most powerful gang."

"But...w-what Flora told me, Savanna kept Amora away from all of this then-"

"Unlike you, she wasn't as lucky to have a cousin to take over the business, she was the only heir. Drake forced Savanna to come back, so Amora got involved."

"So if I take Hunter away, will you...?" I trail off

Flynn took a swing of his beer, "Whether you believe it or not Lydia, I don't want him involved in any of this shit. It ruins you...the power, the money, the girls, it goes to your head. Dad wants Hunter here but I'm just waiting for Brazen to knock someone up so you can take Hunter far away from here."

I looked at him shocked, "What happened to every Alpha needs an heir?"

He gave me a smug look, "It's still true." Handing me his bottle he offered me to drink it but I shook my head. "Now my turn."

"Ask away," I sigh, I don't have anything to hide.

"Do you hate me?"

Taken back I didn't know what to say, "Um..." I didn't hate him, but I didn't like him either, "No, I don't really know how I feel about you." I admit, "When my parents died, I hated you for a while, I thought you could have done more to save them. But at the same time, I was thankful you went there to save them in the first place...you confuse me. Because one second you're hot and the next you're cold. Your presence takes over my senses the second you touch me, it's like my body begins to burn...you-you have this effect on me that I've never felt before and because of that effect I don't think I could truly hate you."

He nodded, "Do you think I'm a monster for killing Amora?"

"No," I say confidently, "Because she was the last of your humanity Flynn, you loved her but circumstances took her away from you. Sure...you were the one who had to kill her but you didn't want to, you were clinging to her body for hours." I went on carefree before I saw the way he was looking at me, "What?"

"You saw the video?" Shit.

"I-um- yeah. I was just looking through the drive and stumbled upon it. It doesn't make me think of you any different-"

"It's okay" He cut me off, "You don't have to be scared, Lydia,"

"I'm not scared of you," I said quickly as he raised his eyebrow in question, "I'm serious! I am not scared of you, I am scared of your reaction. Do you really think that if I was scared of you I would have survived for so long?"

Flynn chuckled, "No, you wouldn't have."

"Do you hate Hunter Flynn?" I blurted out avoiding his gaze 

"What?" He asked shocked

"You never pick him up, you never play with him, it's like you don't see him, Flynn, do you really not care about him?"

Flynn looked over at Hunter getting up off of the chair he picked Hunter up in his arms bringing him over toys, "I don't want to put a bad impression on him. I don't want him to see his dad covered in scars, or covered in blood, I don't know how to be a dad Lydia. I'm scared, but I don't hate him."

"I didn't know how to be a mother either," I admitted, "It takes time Flynn, you can't avoid Hunter forever."

Flynn smiled, a genuine smile...while looking down at Hunter, "He does look a lot like me doesn't he?"

Taken back by his beautiful smile I giggle slipped out of my mouth, "He does."

"Lydia?"

"Mhm,"

"Dad says that you and Hunter are my only hope to avenge myself for all the evil I did. Will you promise me something?"

"What?"

"I don't want to be evil anymore...it's draining, will you please help me become the old Flynn again?"

Giving him a slight smile I gently grabbed his hand it was so rough and covered with cuts, "I'll try my best,"

This whole night took a huge turn, it didn't feel real but I didn't want to mess anything up. If I could provide a healthy family for Hunter, I would do my best. 

Arlo's P.O.V.

"Do you really want to send this invitation over boss?" Landon asked sitting down in front of me, taking a sip from my whiskey I smirked.

"Flynn and the others have been searching for us for the past couple of months ever since we attacked Lydia's parents. I'm sure Flynn has told Lydia by now that she is a part of this world, the Demons."

"But Arlo," Logan cut in, "How does that affect our plan? Lydia has been kept so far from all of this, she won't be any good."

Raising an eyebrow at him I sighed, "This is why you two idiots have been run over Flynn so many times. At moments we shouldn't look at what we will gain, we need to figure out what the other side will lose."

Landon chuckled, "When do you want me to send this invitation out Arlo?"

Shaking the ice in my glass I leaned back on the couch closing my eyes, "Today, it's been so long since I talked to Flynn, send it, and then I will call him later on."

"Arlo," Logan resisted, "What are you planning to do?"

"Wait and Watch,"
