Thanks for the feedback. Really put a smile on my face.


"Raines" as we both look over at the backdoor in shock and get up off the couch to face him.

"Playing incest, are we?" he weezes "I thought I trained you better than that, Lyle. As for you Miss Parker, I'm surprised at your actions. Sleeping with your own brother"

"We …" I start to say but he cuts me off

"You aren't brother and sister. Yes, Centre knew that from the start but we are surprised on how far your relationship as gone. Even the members of the Truimvate are"

"You planned this?" I shout at him and I look at Lyle to see if he had anything to do with this but he looks as shock as I am.

"Up to a point but we never thought that our project would be so successful." He half grimaces at me "I'll be going now. Jarod will never come to confront you if I'm here in the cabin."

"Confront us?" Lyle says

"Oh just some information that Jarod has now" and he leaves the cabin with a sweeper that I hadn't noticed in tow. I guess I was too focused on Raines and his revelations

I glance at Lyle out of the corner of my eye and he looks as astounded as I was.

"Lyle?" I question him. I have no clue what he's thinking at this moment

"Everything is a lie" he says a way a little boy would

I hold back a snort and think 'Why has he only just realised that? Maybe he's been more blinded than me'

"It's not. Not everything. Not we have. What we shared. That was real" I softly tell him

"They planned this. I hate been out of the loop" he states

Suddenly I get angry "So, if they had told you that they planned for you and me to form some kind of alliance you would of gone along with that? Just to please them?"

He stays silent. I look around the room and then back at him.

"Answer me, Lyle" I shout

"Of course, I wouldn't of but that's not the way it happened. Yes, what we had was real" and he hugs me. I start to cry in his chest. The toll of everything that has been happening recently comes crashing down on me. He mutters in my ear "They'll pay for this"
