Lydia's P.O.V.

Walking around the party I smiled at random people, Cassie, Allie, and Arya had left me alone about an hour ago, Brazen had come to check up on me a couple of times but I said I didn't want anything but the truth was I was starving but everything here hit my senses wrong. I had thrown up twice already, Plum wasn't feeling it at all tonight.

Ugh, I want to go home, if I could just find Cassie- "Looking for someone?" I heard Flynn say from behind me I froze praying that he would leave. He didn't. He walked around coming in front of me, "Maybe I could help"

"Um...I was looking for Cassie have you seen her anywhere?" I ask biting my lip, like I said it's a nervous habit. I only do it when I get anxious or scared

His gaze dropped down to my lips, "You do that a lot don't you?"

"What?"

Flynn took a step closer to me as I took one back, "Bite your lip."

I let go of my bottom lip immediately, "Just a habit I guess,"

"Mhm," He hummed checking me out slightly, "Drink?"

"N-No thank you, so Cassie? Have you seen her?"

"She's over by the bar with Allie and Arya. You sure you don't want anything?"

I point down at my tummy, "Pregnant remember? I can't drink." I say slightly glaring at him, "I'm just going to see if she's okay."

Just as I'm about to pass him Flynn grabs my arm, "You came to our house three months back, didn't you? Why didn't you tell me at the hospital?"

Shit. I try to take my arm out of his grip but it tightens, "Um...I didn't think you would care and it was an accident. I was just looking for the baby's father."

He raised an eyebrow, "He's not with you?"

He's standing right in front of me, "No, I tried looking for him but I guess he doesn't live here in Boston."

Flynn looked at me suspiciously but I didn't let him ask anything as I pulled my arm out of his grip, "I'm going to head over to Cassie," I said quietly stepping around him and quickly walking over to the girls. "Hey," I say drawing their attention towards me. 

Cassie giggled stumbling towards me, she's drunk I looked over at Arya and Allie and they are not any better. Fuck...I hold on to Cassie, "How much did you drink already?"

She pointed over to a drink, "Try it, Dia, it is so good."

I shook my head, "Cassie you promised you wouldn't drink that much how am I supposed to take you home now?" I groaned, she tried to hand me a glass but I pushed it away, "I can't drink it, Cassie," I snapped. 

I should have never agreed to come here, "Stop being a fun sucker Dia, let's go dance." She mumbled dragging me to the dance floor as Arya and Allie followed us. Struggling to get out of her grip I give up, god what was it with everyone grabbing onto me so roughly? First Flynn now her.  "Dance Dia," She said smiling at me, 

Knowing she wasn't going to let me go I moved my body to the beat along with her and the other girls, my feet were already starting to hurt, she didn't let go until the end of the song, and just as I was about to leave the DJ played a slow song asking everyone to find partners, rolling my eyes I stepped off the floor until a guest walked up to me, "Would you like to dance?"

I shook my head gently smiling at him, "No, I don't dance,"

He put his hand out for me to take, "I don't either, but...I thought maybe we could?" 

Squinting my eyes at him I ask, "Are you flirting with me?"

He shrugged, "Maybe, my name  is Harry," 

Shaking my head and chuckling I put my hand in his, "One dance Harry,"

Smirking he led me back on the floor, "One dance is all I need..."

Placing my hand on his shoulder, "Lydia,"

Pulling me closer Harry says, "Beautiful name for a beautiful girl."

Tilting my head a little I say, "Wow, you're a professional at this, aren't you? How many girls have you used that line on?"

"Many," He answered honestly, "But I only meant it for you,"

Looking away from him I push him away slightly, "And how many girls have you said that to?"

"None," Harry said firmly, "I haven't seen you here before,"

"I'm just here with a friend, and I'm not looking for anyone at the moment Harry. So thank you for admiring me I guess, but I can't."

Clenching his jaw he spun me out, "No need to thank me for admiring your beauty Lydia, but I can see why you are saying no," He said gesturing to my tummy, "Thank you for the dance."

"You're welcome," I smiled, Harry spun me into another man's arms, I gasped at the impact looking up at who it was I saw it was Flynn, Arya probably brought him here. "Um, my feet hurt so-"

Flynn pulled me closer, "They didn't hurt when you were dancing with that guy,"

Shocked I wrapped my arms around his neck, "They were but he just asked for one dance so I thought why not? My one dance limit is up so if you can excuse me."

"I don't bite," He snapped tightening his grip on my waist, looking down at me he smirked, "Unless you want me to of course,"

A shiver went down my back, letting out a shattered breath I tried to relax in his arms, but how can you relax in the hands of someone who laughs after killing someone? 

"Why are you so afraid of me?" Flynn asked, "I mean, you are fine around Brazen, Stefan, and Dad. Why me?"

"Because..." Because you're the father of the child that is currently in my stomach and I saw you commit murder, "I have heard a lot of stuff about you, not good stuff either."

"Mhm," He hummed sexily pulling me closer he leaned towards my ear, "When I say run behind the table, the man you were chatting away with has a gun." My body stiffened in his arms as he whispered in my ear. "I guess some of the stuff you heard about you'll get to see in real life too."

"What?" I asked scared, "Why does he have a gun? What person would bring a gun to a party?"

"This isn't a regular party Lydia, and our life is far from regular." He whispered back to me, "Now, go hide behind the table, in 3...2...1..." As soon as he reached one Harry pulled out the gun and shot a bullet in the sky, I ran behind the table grabbing Cassie in the process as she was dancing beside me.

"What the fuck?" She groaned, 

"Shh," I shush her before peaking over the table, Flynn and Harry were fighting each other, Flynn was winning... Cassie struggled in my grip, irritated I snapped at her, "Stop Cassie, just stay still."

Flynn grabbed the gun from Harry pushing him to the ground, putting his foot on Harry's chest he aimed the gun at his forehead, "Who the fuck are you?"

Harry chuckled spitting blood at him, "Logan, Logan Forrest," What the fuck? I thought he said his name was Harry. 

Putting his weight on his chest more, "I killed one of your men the other night Logan, when is the Azar gang going to stop fucking around? Do they want you dead too?"

"Please, you kill me my father will hunt every one of you down." Logan chuckled, "The choice is your Alpha...kill me or let me go."

Picking him up Flynn punched him again, "Get the fuck off my property." He growled, "They call me Alpha for a fucking reason Logan, I've been ruling Boston for the past 8 years, don't fuck around with me,"

Logan groaned from pain, "We'll see how long you can last Alpha. Now you're alone, but..." He looked around, was he looking for me? Did he know about me and Plum? But how? I mean he couldn't, no one knew other than Cassie. "One day or another you will have a weakness and once I find it. Your rule will be over."

"Get the fuck out!" Flynn roared scaring me also, "Brazen, fire the security guards we need new ones. They can't even keep unwanted pests out of our property."

Brazen ran over to the gate dragging Logan behind him, I got out from the table lifting Cassie with me, 

What...the...fuck...
