Liz's P.O.V
I was looking through the window when someone shook me.

"What do you want,now?"I hissed at the jerk.I found out his name was Sebastian Grey.

"Nobody talks to me like that.Have some respect."He said glaring at me.
"We need to blindfold you."Marco said,stopping the car.
Yes.Marco.He is also a part of the Grey's.I had only heard about him.Now I had seen him too.He was the best and when I say best,I mean best in the whole America.North and South.
James so wanted him.But he was already involved.Guess where?

"What the hell?"I said shrieking.
"Calm down,Elizabeth.It is just to keep the location of the house from you."Marco said rubbing his ear.

"We don't trust you and you have given us no reason to,yet so I'm afraid this will happen.The easy way or the hard way."Sebastian said,his voice getting cold and hard in the end.

"Rot in hell.All of you.Even the quiet guy in the passenger seat."I said looking at Sebastian holding the cloth.

As if on cue,the passenger seat guy decided to look back.
I saw his face and my breath got stuck in my throat.

"Do you know who I am?"He said examining me.

"Yes.Chase Foster."I whispered.
The Chase Foster,a very resourceful and dangerous man.The classic bad boy.His only name could even produce fear in the best fighters.

"Good.I don't like being referred as the passenger seat guy."He said and smirked at me.

"Great,then.Rot in hell,Chase Foster."I replied smirking.

I snatched the blindfold from Sebastian's hand and put it on me.

"Now, can we get a move on?Batman?"I said sarcastically.
I could hear someone trying to control their laughter.

I felt the car roar.I was still alert and hoping to get this off of me but I want to know everything first.

"Matt said that you will explain?"I said breaking the silence in the car as I moved my head around.I wasn't sure to whom I was directing this question.

"We'll explain once we get there."Sebastian replied.

"Whatever."I said but I still had this bad feeling.
I brushed it away and tried to concentrate on the sounds.

On reaching the house..

The car came to a stop.The engine died down.
I heard door locks clicking.
I tried my luck to escape but the door wouldn't budge,then someone opened my door and said"Child locks,love."It was Sebastian.
Jerk.
"Now can you remove it?"I said clearly annoyed while Marco just laughed at me.

"Nope.Inside."Chase said.
Someone put their hand on my back and guided me.I would have shrunk back but I was grateful this time.
I suddenly felt this rush of cool air and then a door was shut.
Someone came up behind me an started to untie the knot.

I opened my eyes and let them adjust to the bright light.
I blinked repeatedly.

Then,I looked around to take in my surroundings and was shocked as hell.
It was so beautiful.We were in the lobby of the house,I think.

There was a huge victorian staircase at the end of the room and the hall was covered with paintings.
There was also a seating area for people.

Everyone was looking at me sitting there.I took the armchair and sat.

"So explain it.Will you?"I said curious.

Just then my phone rung in Sebastian's pocket.He saw the caller id-Matt.
He looked hesitant but then he gave me my phone and said,"Keep it on speaker.I'm watching.Don't try anything funny."He said in a threatening tone.

I accepted the call and put it on speaker.
"Matt,your'e on speaker."I said as if though warning him.

"They already know.It's you,I have to tell."He said assuring me.

"Okay."I said a bit nervous.I didn't show it but still.

"Your'e with them because it was the only way I could keep you safe."He sighed as he continued.

"He was going to kill you.It was the perfect plan.But I found out.He was going to target you and the Grey's altogether.James was going to kill you."He said almost shouting.
"I had to do something,Liz.I couldn't see it.He was going to kill you for money.The money you rightfully inherited."

"56 billion dollars."I said as I sighed.

"He was going to kill you so that the money gets transferred to the legal member.That is him.And then he was going to blame it on the Grey's.He was going to frame it that way."He said and paused.

"Because that would start a gang war and he would manipulate the Grey's sources and then they would join him and thus,he will win the war and redeem his position,once and for all.Because nobody would be so stupid as to challenge him."I said as if though completing him.

"Exactly."He said through the phone.

I looked around the room to see everyone looking at me.Waiting for me to break,I guess.

"I knew he was after the money.I don't even want it.He could have it but the things he would resort to after inheriting such an amount is unimaginable."I said through the phone.

"Indeed,sister."A voice came through the phone.

"James."I said not letting my fear get in the way.

"Oh what a fool your friend is!
Aren't you?Selling you off to the Grey's to protect you."He said as I heard Matt moaning on the phone.

"I will get my money.Maybe not today or tomorrow like I planned but after three years.You will have no choice you will have to fight me.You took everything.The money,my sources.But I will get you,sister and kill you.Slowly."He said furiously.

"I'm not afraid of you,James."I said menacingly.

"We'll see after three years.You have seen what I am capable of,sister dearest.Haven't you?"He said as if smirking.

I got hit by a truck of emotion when his taunt decrypted resurfacing the memories of that day and after that...
I felt a shooting pain in my head.I rubbed my forehead.

The guys looked at me,impatient and shocked.I just nodded to signal I was fine.It happened every time I thought about it.

"Now,now what to do with my traitor friend here?"James said taunting me.

I just listened carefully.I knew what was gonna happen,I think.

"Any last words?Matty boy?"He said as he loaded his gun.

I was gripping the arm rest so hard that my vein in my forehead was about to pop out.

"Yes.Liz,it's not your fault.I knew this would happen.And I would gladly do it again and again.I would choose and save your life over mine any day.You deserve it.So no,it wasn't your fault.
I love you,Liz.I love you very much and I always have,since the day we met at the swings."He paused and laughed remembering it.I smiled in return.
"Yep.Keep smiling like that."He said as if he knew I was smiling.
"I love you,Liz.And also one last thing Screw you,Ja..."

I heard a gunshot sound through the phone.I closed my eyes for a moment.

"Matt?"I said as my lip and voice both quivered.
"Matt?"I asked again.

"Aww!
Better luck next time,sister.Your lover's dead.Poor guy.Loved you and you never even  realised it."James said laughing.

"Atleast make it look like an accident."I said as I hung up.

I think I just closed my eyes and stood there.His voice echoed in my ears"I love you,Liz."

"So who's giving me a tour?"I said after clearing my throat,hoping to clear my thoughts too.
