Chapter Seven

"Luke?! What the hell are you doing here?"

"I had to see you", he let himself, swerving around me. My stomach fluttered at his words and smile slowly creeped on my face. Soon, fading away realizing Luke is in my house.

"How did you even get passed the guards?", I said as I shut the door.

Luke had his back facing me as he spoke, "I slit their throat and stabbed them about 13 times in the chest".

I gasped, he turned around and face me. He didn't know any emotion.

"Kidding," he smirked, "Guards wouldn't let me through the gate so I jumped the fence. You should reconsider the excessive barb wire, though. If you ask me that a little too much", he examined the holes in his sweater that were caused by the barb wire, "this sweater was actually expensive." I laughed at his remark.

"You do realize if my father finds out your here, you would be dead in a nanosecond?" I spoke in soft voice hoping no one could hear me.

"He doesn't need to know." he shook his head, while looking around the house, "Nice place." He admired the interior of the house, and I admired him. His beautiful eyes wandering around, his lips parted in amusement and how hair looks like a creation from a goddess.

"Allison?"

I snapped from my thoughts and looked at Luke, he had told me something while I was in a trance and I couldn't recall what it was.

"Sorry, what?"

"My father wants to fight the West," he said, "At dusk." I couldn't understand of the sudden his father wanted to go at war with West. I would if it was the North, because, well, it's sort of common sense.

"Remember when we being chased around in downtown?" I nodded, "That was the West.", he confirmed. My eyebrows narrowed trying to figure it out.

"Why would the West be after us?" I asked.

"Who wouldn't take the chance of kidnapping the son of the South leader and the daughter of the North leader", he replied. I nodded as I understood that now I had some sort of a reputation. I can't no longer walk out on the streets like an average teenage girl. I'm now a threat to innocent civilians or an opportunity to sick people. The most outrageous thought came into my mind and I didn't hesitate to think twice.

"I'll fight with you"

Luke face was emotionless, he then laughed at my offer but my lack of laughter notified him that I was actually serious. "Are you fucking joking right now? I really hope you are.", he said. I shook my head. "I want to fight with you against the West", I clarified.

"It's not any of your busi-"

"I want to", I interrupted.

"Do you want to fucking get killed?!", he shouted, "Is that what you want?! Allison, you're not even trained. You're not even a member of our side. It will only make matters worse when the West finds out North is helping." Luke brushed his hair with his fingers in frustration. I wanted to fight because maybe then I can prove to my father I am not useless.

I crossed my arms in front of my chest. "North isn't helping the South. Only myself and it won't be such a big deal."

"For fuck's sake, Allison! The West knows who you are! You left your goddamn car in downtown and they found the North seal on the plaque. They believe we are now allies. They will get rid of South and make their way up to North.", he paused and showed a worried expression, "The South also believes that the West has Harry."
