" Hey bro, how are you holding up? " Jack asked in a way of greeting as he sauntered into the hospital ward with Ava on his tail. It was obvious to anyone watching that Ava was scared as fuck as she hid behind Jack's tall frame. Alex was sitting up on the bed and he raised his eyebrows when he spotted Ava behind his brother. He knew she was trying to avoid a direct conversation of any kind with him. But for some reason, he was intrigued by her and wanted to talk to her, feel her presence in close proximity. Shut your trap man, he scolded himself silently and faked a cough. He looked away from her to regard his brother with a glare. " Thought you were never going to show up, I'm cool anyway " He answered with a shrug and gave Ava one quick stare. Ava on the other hand was once again spellbound by the sound of his voice. His deep, sexy voice were doing some wonders to her body which she couldn't quite define. Like water ripples down from your throat down to your stomach ? Her in

" You're really something, aren't you? " Alex drawled out lazily as he stared up at her from under his thick lashes. Ava ignored him and continued, loudly this time. " And it's Adams, not Evans " She corrected him firmly. Alex threw her a look which meant he didn't take lightly to being corrected. Ava returned his look with a defiant stare and they remained that way for a while until Alex finally gave up with a sigh. She wouldn't be easy to deal with, something within him kept giving him a warning signal. Ava took a deep breath and continued " So uh... I was your babysitter when you were... Sick " She kinda stressed the last word and looked down at her feet. When she didn't receive any reaction from him, she looked up and found him staring right back at her. " Hmm, you were my babysitter " He nodded and gave her a dangerous smile which chilled Ava down to her spine. His demeanor changed into a stiff one as though he was offended merely at the thought of her being his babysitter.

Jack rolled his eyes " She did and you were at fault man, you were so rude to her! " He shouted, almost irritated. Alex's jaw dropped and his eyes widened as he stared at Ava " Just... Just what story did you feed him, you little... " He held his tongue in check before he swore. " What's wrong with telling him the truth?? "She fired back, her hands were placed on her hips now. Alex glared at her " And what truth did you conjure up? " He spatted out. She ignored him totally and looked away. " See? She has fed you lies, Jack! " He exclaimed, trying to make his brother see reason with him but Jack only rolled his eyes at him. " You better apologize to her because she took care of your sorry ass while you were bedridden and she's going nowhere, Alex. Get used to seeing her around " Jack said with a tone of finality. " What?! " Alex asked incredulously and continued to stare at Jack, trying to see if he really meant it. Jack threw him a sideway glance " I believe you heard me ju

Inside, Ava pushed Alex so hard that he staggered backwards " What the hell do you think you are doing?! " He snarled, feeling hurt at being rejected. " Uh... I'm... I'm sorry sir! " Ava's voice trembled as she replied. Well, what was wrong with him anyway? She thought in confusion. She had seen passion in his eyes just some minutes ago so where had it all disappeared to? Or had she just imagined the whole thing in her head? No dummy, you didn't imagine anything because I saw the whole thing, but it was clearly lust that was written in hie eyes and not passion girl!, Her inner voice mocked silently. Oh wow, so she was not mistaken, she thought as she embraced the usual intrusion of her inner voice. " I was just about to arrange some things and put them in order before I take my leave " She said in a more steady voice. He ignored her and brushed past her to sit on the bed. The manly scent he left behind made Ava feel like there were butterflies in her stomach and she liked it. A s

Alex's next look was enough to make her get to work automatically as he pinned her with a deadly glare to which Ava returned with one of her own in full force before she came back to her senses and realized she had been glaring at her boss. With a shaky smile, she turned and started to dish out his food. She felt his eyes on her but refused to give in to the temptation to check if he was really staring at her. ******************" He's awake??! " Angela shrieked in a high pitched sound as she almost toppled over the chair out of surprise and shock. Her secretary Tyler, took some steps back to avoid being the target of whatever the emotion his boss was feeling. Being so sly and unpredictable, one never know what Angela's next action would be. " I asked you a question, Tyler " She added when the poor secretary seemed to be too scared to speak. " Yes... Yes ma'am " He finally found his voice and answered. " How... When?! " Angela asked frantically, pacing back and forth in t

Ava laughed and decided to make a joke in a bid to lighten up the solemn atmosphere " Hey come on, you look ugly with the awful smile you've got on. Now give me that radiant smile that will nearly make me go blind "" Come here " Maggie whispered and drew Ava into a warm hug. " Now ladies, we really have to get going now or Alex will have my head " Jack said from behind them and looked at his wrist watch. Ava slowly disengaged herself from the hug " I'll see you later Maggie, hopefully " Maggie frowned slightly " Why? "Ava faked a laugh " Well, if he doesn't fire me on the way back, I'll surely help you with dinner tonight "Maggie rolled her eyes " Oh come on, he would do no such thing. Sure, he might threaten you all he wants but fire you? No way "" You're the only person who's not scared to put him in his place " She added with a confident smile. Jack gave Ava an " I told you so " look. " Now hush and get going, you don't want to be late, do you now? " Maggie asked and didn'

Jack smiled, knowing fully well that it was an empty threat " Oh , you'll do no such thing. Now let's go, shall we? "If looks could kill, Jack was sure he would be on the floor now " Cut it out Alex, she's staying with you, now should I help you up? " He offered again and didn't expect his brother to accept his help knowing how stubborn he was. Just as he thought, Alex ignored his offer " Maybe you should consider taking her with you then, I'm sure Liam needs a babysitter badly " And he huffed. Jack rolled his eyes to show that he was bored " She's perfect for you Alex, not Liam. Trust me, you need it more than my son does " Jack answered with ease. Alex pondered over what his brother said and his head shot up as he understood what he meant " Is that supposed to be an insult?! "Jack shook his head " Take it as an advice instead, you need someone to keep you back on track. Now, let's get you back into the life you're used to, or do you wanna stay here all day? Maybe you wanna con

A strand of her hair fell over her face which made it difficult for him to take in her features properly. Strange enough, he found that annoying so he brushed the stray hair from her face, baring her face completely to his view. He traced her eyelashes with the tip of his thumb and smiled when she blinked, frowning in the process. Alex found it cute and said so " How can someone look so beautiful and serene while asleep? " He whispered. Before he could stop himself, he placed a light kiss on her forehead. His warm breath fanned her face and it got Ava excited secretly. So much for the secrecy she thought in annoyance right then, her eyes flew open and she giggled. Alex drew back in shock " What the hell?! " He cursed yet the second time that morning. " You were awake the whole time?! " He asked incredulously. " Uh not really " Ava managed to reply, trying hard to keep her face straight. There was a hint of smile pulling at the corners of her lips though. Alex pinned her with a d
