Lisa strongly believes Oliver is to blame still, even though she’d lost any evidence to make him plead guilty. Evelyn, on the other hand, after Oliver reveals Lisa’s former cases of mental illness, is unsure of who to trust. She feels alone and vulnerable. Oliver tries to make her feel better, and they end up kissing at the foot of a mountain. Lisa realizes that her sister has been brainwashed by Oliver, and goes on a one-man stalking mission, which eventually leads her to where Will is being kept captive. Evelyn is furious when she realizes that she’d been naïve, once again. Together, they try to free Will. Evelyn’s POV I am terrified! Will is missing and to make matters worse, Lisa and Oliver are uncovering truths that I can’t even be certain of. I am so confused and in my frustration, I lash out at Lisa when she keeps going on about Oliver. I think he wants to help. Lisa gives me another reason to doubt him when she leads me to where Will is being held. I feel stupid, again. Will is looking sickly and my heart is broken. Will’s POV I wake up in an unknown cellar after a terrible nightmare. It took a while before I remembered what had happened to me. The Hornets have held me captive, and with each meal I take, I get weaker and weaker. Oliver digs up my father’s debts to the Hornets and threatens to take away all of my assets in exchange for the money owed them by my father. There’s an alternative. He will clear the debts if I agree to let Evelyn be. I am going to give up, considering how I’d be dead, anyway, but Evelyn and Lisa arrive at the cellar one day. They are on a mission to save me. less

Evelyn is injured by the Hornets and has to be taken to the hospital. Will is forced into working for the Hornets to pay off his father’s debt. Evelyn is outraged by the news, and she decides to fight this time around. She hatches a plan, which includes breaking up with Will, and while the latter gathers evidence that he plans to use to indict the Hornets, Evelyn loves up to Oliver and his father, in order to drug them and goes in search of evidence too. Will finds her as she digs around, and they both find out they are working toward the same goal. He manages to convince her that he will let her handle the problem this time. He calls the sheriff's department, and checks in with evidence against the Hornets. Evelyn’s POV I wake up to find out that Will’s working for the Hornets, the very reason why I have been shot, and why our lives have been made miserable. I am angry at first, but soon realize it is my turn to fight. I hatch a plan to dump Will, make Big Tom and Oliver believe the drama, and get into the Hornet’s den. I find out that Will has the same plan, and am glad when he agrees to let me handle things. Will’s POV I have to work for the Hornets to offset the debt my father owed Big Tom. Even though no one sees my plan, I have one that I believe will work if I keep it to myself. Evelyn hatches a rather ‘not so nice’ plan that involves us breaking up. She is courting Oliver now. It hurts! I find her rummaging through one of the old rooms in the compound and discover that she wants to find criminal evidence on the Hornets. She makes me promise to let her handle it. I break my promise and reach out to the sheriff’s department instead. There’s more useful evidence now, and I will not stop until the Hornets face the full might of the law. less

I am terrified when I get a visit from two men who claim to be Oliver’s elder brothers.

I miss the ranch too, and am eager to go back but not so eager to feel anything for my father when I learned that he had left, despite our agreement to stick together.
