We ran out into the restaurant and saw Ashton standing over Preston throwing blow after blow to his head. Blood was spurting everywhere and if Ashton continued, he'd kill him.Everyone was standing around with wide eyes witnessing the horrific scene, but I didn't feel bad for him. I wanted him dead but I didn't want Ashton to be the one to do it. ”Ashton!” Jasmine yelled trying to get him to stop. I walked slowly up to him and put my hand on his shoulder. Ashton stopped and turned around. His eyes were black and his whole posture was predatory-like. ”Let’s go, Ash,” I said. He looked down on Preston who was barely breathing.

”She’s fine, still asleep,” I heard someone speaking but it sounded far away.”We won't know until she wakes up, wait, I think she is. I’ll call you later,” I groaned as I turned and twisted in my bed. Rubbing my eyes with the back of my hands. I let out a big yawn before I opened my eyes and sat up on the bed. ”Good morning sleepy head!” Pazzi was here, why? ”Not so loud, I just woke up,” I whined and turned to drink from the water bottle that I always had on my bedside table. ”Sorry, how are you feeling?” He asked me with a smile on his face. How can he always be so cheerful?”I’m good, I feel really rested. If you don't mind me asking, why are you here?” I asked him with one raised brow as I pushed aside the comf

This morning started off fantastic, to say the least. I got a text from Pazzi saying I don't have to be in the office today because he and Ash were away on a business trip. Meaning I could do whatever the fuck I wanted. I decided to not lay around all day but to go out and have some fun. I was going to have breakfast, watch some tv and then get dressed and head out.  Just as I was about to bring the fork with pieces of omelet on it up to my lips, my phone started ringing and Pazzi’s name lit up on my screen.”No, no, no no,” I said out loud as I brought the phone up to answer. ”Hi there Ms. Shaw,” ”Pazzi I am not coming into work today and I'm not going to a meeting! You promised I would have the day off!&rd

The day had just begun and it still felt amazing. Regardless of the little debacle downstairs earlier, I wouldn't let it ruin my good mood. An office message popped up on my screen from Ashton saying he wanted everyone gathered in the hall right away. This only happened when there was a big announcement to be made, or at least that’s what I heard. I walked out and gathered with the others who were standing around, Ashton was standing in front of everyone, ready to speak. Pazzi came walking towards me. His shoulders had a predatory bow and his nostrils were flaring. He came and stood next to me. He looked to be bothered by something. Pazzi nudged my arm and leaned down. ”How much did you and Jackson speak?” He asked me. He showed little to no emo

I was in the building restaurant buying lunch. I opted for the spaghetti bolognese and went to sit by an empty table. I dug in right away and hoped that nobody would join me. The sooner I finished my lunch the sooner I could continue with work and forget about this day. I do however need to speak with Thomas, we need to get our story straight. ”Excuse me, is this seat taken?” Speaking of the devil. ”No, please, sit,” I said and smiled at Thomas as he took a seat. I looked around to make sure that nobody would hear me before I spoke. ”Thank you for not showing that we knew each other earlier,” I said.
