Chapter 112: A knife to Huck's throat.

“Huck,” Keyon breathed the name. He wondered if that would be the last word that ever came out of his mouth. If it were, he would be okay with that.

“It’s okay, Keyon.” Huck tried to comfort him. The words brought him back to the moment in his hotel when he told him he loved him. Keyon had thought nothing was scarier than that, but he was wrong. Seeing Huck about to be killed was way more frightening.

“You’re smarter than I gave you credit for, Keyon,” Olivia said, and she ignored Huck, but her hand never left where the knife was poised at Huck’s throat. “I didn’t think you’d ever figure it out.”

Keyon wanted to laugh but only looked on and kept his expression neutral. He didn’t realize that Olivia was systematically destroying his life one bite at a time. He’d never connected the name Bentley to Serena’s mother. Honestly, Keyon never thought that Serena’s family gave a shit about him or what he was doing. After he’d left, Keyon had never heard from them again.
