Lucas' Nightmare

Lucas' expression changed. He knew exactly what was on Caden's mind.

"If you break Alira's heart, you're dead!"

Caden didn't answer, making Lucas mad.

"Explain yourself, Caden!" Skyler exclaimed before Lucas could react.

Caden sighed. "I need to use her for Alira's sake. I can be the bad guy if it's an assurance of her safety."

"You're crazy! You should talk to Alira first."

"And tell her what? That Benjamin was murdered and I am the prime suspect?"

"You're just a person of interest."

"It doesn't matter. For me, it's the same. Alira is not well. I can't tell her about Benjamin yet." Caden muffled.

Lucas clicked his tongue. "We can't hide it from her forever. She will immediately know about it when she wakes up. It's all over the news and the internet."

Caden turned to Skyler. "Can you do something about it?"
