Oh my goodness! Thank you guys for all the reviews and things! I was really surprised because I posted that chapter and didn't touch the computer for like three days and BAM I had like 17 reviews! Thank you all for reading! It really does make me happy!

BUT! I have a challenge for all you crazy people who favorite or follow my story. You need to tell me why you like my story! Please!

Fang had dragged me into an empty class room that some teacher had left open as if they didn't care what happened to all the different things that were in the room.

"What do you want, Fang?" I asked him jerking my arm out of his grasp, hissing to get the point across that I didn't want to be here at all.

"It's about your sister."

"I already told you she is dead. There is nothing more to it."

"Yeah I know but I don't think that is the end of the story. I think there was something more behind that."

"Like what." I snapped.

"Look," he said throwing his hands up as a gesture of surrender, "I just thought you would like to know what I found out."

"Please just get to the point."

"I think there was some sort of plot to kill your family... like all of your family... including you and I don't think you are safe."

"What the hell are you talking about?" I was shocked that he would even think of that. Who would want to kill my family? … oh wait …

"I think your family is being murdered for your money, for some reason unknown."

"And why would the great Fang Walker care about some girl that he doesn't even know?"

"Look I am just trying to help, plus I was probably never suppose to tell you this. I think I was told so that I would give more attention to your stepsister."

"What do you mean?"

Fang then illustrated what happened the day before after he had learned what had happened to my sister. Apparently Lissa had sent him a text at a time when he really didn't want to talk to her of all people. The thing was the text was most likely suppose to be sent to another person that she was communicating with for some sort of underground... well... killer. To be more specific the text went like this:

Your pay for your last target will come in your account tomorrow but there will defiantly be less since you did not finish the full job. Mother says that if you don't finish the job you won't get all the benefits of working for her and her connections to the government. Meaning you won't walk free from this. It all comes down to this: if you don't kill M, we won't have enough money to cover this up anyway. Do it soon but preferably not before the talent contest. -L

The only person M could have been was me. There were a few more texts after that where Fang asked Lissa what was going on, and apparently Lissa was letting Fang in on her plans. He was 'keeping his silence' for a small portion of my fortune.

"Why are you helping me?" I asked scared out of my mind.

"Because I can't stand people getting away with things like this." looking into his eyes I could see the sincerity there, but the rest of his face stayed as impassive as ever when I was around him. I couldn't believe how well this kid could hide his true emotions. I then did something very dangerous and very un-Maxlike. I threw my arms around Fang's neck giving him a hug.

"Thank you." I whispered shakily.

At that moment the bell rang and I backed away, turning on one heel I ran to my first class.

Oh, gods. What is wrong with me?

I could swear that my heart skipped a beat when Max's slim arms wrapped around my neck for one of the best hugs I have ever had. I heard her whisper into my ear just as the bell rang, and she turned to go to class. Almost involuntarily I reached for her arm, but it was already out of my grasp.

Snapping some scene into myself I went to my own first class. There I took my seat right behind Lissa's desk, and even though she was talking to me for most of the class all I could think of was Max. I realized that I was thinking of another girl that wasn't Ella, and could have almost stood in amazement at myself for doing so. It was the first time in years that I thought I was falling for someone else.

Oh, God in heaven. What is wrong with me?


MPOV

Days passed and I couldn't keep Fang out of my mind. I couldn't help myself. He was truly amazing!

Unfortunately I also couldn't keep the information he gave me out of my mind either. I became jumpy and really self aware of all the things I did, like I would never let anyone touch my food anymore and I would stay as far away from Lissa and Victoria as I possibly could. I felt like a train wreck and I could barely tell what I was suppose to do anymore.


FPOV

For days the only thought that crossed my mind was that of Max. Strangely it made me feel utterly hopeless even if she was an amazing girl, but that was not important at the moment. I had a talent competition to plan, and I didn't have the time to worry about the rest of the world. Even if the girl I was falling for had her life on a thin line.


Soooo... I am sorry to report that I am and will be grounded for a while. But! I will still try to post and not keep you guys waiting as much as I possibly can.

Now as Miss. Anonymous asked I am going to layout Max's family history:

Jeb- Died in a car crash that was most likely set up. Married Valencia and Victoria (after Valencia died) whom he divorced after finding that she was abusing Max and Ella.
Ella-Died in a car crash that was most likely set up.
Valencia Martinez- Died when Max was young of cancer (didn't mention this part sorry will in another chapter).
Lissa & Victoria- Max's step family along with Gazzy and Angel. They were considered to be the only 'family' Max had so they took her in for their own purposes.

Well there you have it!

Fly on,
