I’m Someone Else

Yuna didn’t want Declan to give in. It was obvious Leah had dark plans for Olivia, or she wouldn’t have to force Declan into calling her. Yuna was the daughter of Taylor, the de facto leader of the Saunder Family. She was also Yukine’s real mother.

Declan bit his lip. He really didn’t want to ask Olivia out, but if he didn’t do as he was told, his wife would be killed. He was forced to choose between his wife and his niece, putting him in a dilemma. Quincy called him earlier, and he was told of Gunnar’s arrival. Of course, he knew why Leah wanted Olivia to show up.

“Can’t make a decision? I’m on a tight schedule, so I don’t have time to waste here.” Leah checked the time. “Three minutes. If you can’t make a choice by then, you’ll have to watch your wife die right in front of you.”

Leah had no choice but to do this. She couldn’t seek Olivia out, not when she had Thomas guarding her. That man was not to be trifled with. She had seen how he fought back at the villa. In order to bypass him, she used Declan.

Flames of fury flared in Declan’s eyes. My mother’s a b*tch, and a shameless one at that. What did I do to deserve this?
