ASHLEY

I gasped out, my heart dropping, breaking into a million pieces of pain and guilt.

He looked up when they neared my car and our eyes locked. My legs trembled, and tears dropped from my eyes as I stared at him with guilt scribbled across my scrunched-up face.

His face was cold as always, but I could feel the anger in his eyes, and it burned me.

I sank my teeth into my trembling lips, holding back the cry that threatened to tear out of my lips. I gripped the wheels, gasping for air as I w

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [159] The Gala

    ASHLEY “Will your doctor friend attend the gala?” Lauren asked for the third time as we got ready for the gala taking place tonight. I jerked my head in her direction, snapping out of my thoughts. My lips stretched into a practiced smile, and I shook my head. “He said he won't be able to make it,” I replied. “Oh, that's so sad,” she muttered. I saw relief dart across her eyes as she pretended to be sad about his inability to attend the gala. I got up from the chair and walked out of my room, descending the stairs to the living room. Silas's confession over the phone that morning still made my heart bleed with rage, but I held it all in, waiting until I received confirmation that everything was under control. He had accused me of betraying him while stabbing me in the back all along. I was glad I had never trusted him, and I was going to break all ties with him tonight. “Are you okay?” I paused and spun around as Lauren's voice filled the room. I forced a smile and nodded

    ASHLEY I cleared my throat noisily as the awkward silence persisted.Lauren tilted her head in my direction but said nothing.The horror and discomfort in her eyes were obvious, and I could see her hand shaking as she struggled to drink her tea without glancing at him.Jasper seemed to be going through the same ordeal, and he couldn't stop reaching for the cake beside her teacup.My smile widened, and my heart fluttered as I watched them.Jasper sighed and straightened up, turning to face me.“I'm sorry for barging into your house without notice last night. Forgive me for the inconvenience I must have caused,” he said, his face twisting with guilt.I chuckled, waving my hand in the air.“You don't have to worry about that. You're my friend,” I said.He relaxed and muttered his appreciation before turning to face the awkward soul sitting in front of him.I knew he had gotten up and walked away because of Lauren. I suspected he could remain there until the end of the day just to sit cl

    ASHLEY My eyes locked with Lauren's as she stood frozen in the doorway, her gaze fixed on Jasper's sleeping face.Her jaw dropped, and shock clouded her widened eyes. I could see her hands trembling at her sides, and her toes curled inside her flip-flops.Jasper's words echoed in my head, leaving me in disbelief.Lauren lived in New York? She was dating Jasper too!I gasped and shook my head, unable to believe he was talking about the Lauren I knew.“Did he…” Lauren trailed off.I raised my head in her direction, and our eyes locked.Pain and fear flashed across her eyes before she let out a shaky breath.“What… what is he doing here?” she gasped, rushing into the room.She stopped a few steps away from Jasper, her hands subconsciously gripping her dress.She swallowed and forced a concerned expression before continuing towards him.“I was so absorbed in the series that I didn't notice when he walked past me,” she said with a sigh, rubbing her forehead.She leaned forward and peered

    ASHLEY A gasp escaped my lips as Jasper burst into my room, a flower in hand and a smile on his face.I stared at him, my jaw dropping in shock and confusion.He paused and spun around, waving his hand towards the door.“Close the door,” he said.I let out a scoff, my lips twitching into an amused smile.I nodded at the confused maid, then slammed the door shut and marched towards him.“What do you think you're doing here?” I snapped.I tried so hard to sound angry, but I only ended up sounding amused and intrigued.He didn't respond to my question immediately. Instead, he walked over to the armchair and picked up the book I had been reading.“Romance,” he said, glancing at the front cover.“Yes?” I tilted my head to the side. “What's wrong with it?” I asked.He puckered his lips, staring at me with an emotion I couldn't quite make out.“Nothing is wrong with it, but it's quite funny seeing you go around playing with the hearts of the men around you,” he blurted out.I scoffed loudly

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [155] Hallucination

    ASHLEY "Ashley.""Wake up, Ashley."A voice called out to me from the darkness, forcing me to wake from my deep slumber.My eyes slowly fluttered open, but a sharp light pierced through them. I immediately squeezed them shut, wincing as pain coursed through my body.As I struggled with the pain, a hand gently squeezed my shoulders."Are you okay, Ashley?" The same voice that had called me from the darkness asked again.My eyes flew open, and I quickly turned my head to the side, glancing at the person sitting beside my bed.Lauren let out a sigh of relief. She tried to smile, but I could still see the worry in her eyes.I closed my eyes again, remaining silent as the throbbing pain gradually subsided.When I opened them, Lauren leaned closer and took my hand."It's a good thing you're awake, Ashley. I was so scared that something might have happened to you," she said.The last moments before I collapsed flashed through my mind, sending another jolt of fear through my body. I shivered

  • GOOD GIRL GONE: Here For Your Downfall    [154] The necklace

    ASHLEY “ I don't trust Skylar,” I muttered, and the line went dead.I let out a sigh and dragged my feet to the window, watching the entire city laid out in front of me.What if Skylar betrays me?What if he chooses his family over justice?He was a Morgan. No matter what I meant to him or how he treated me, he would forever remain a Morgan, which meant he would always protect his family.As I turned around to get a snack, a thought crossed my mind.I rushed towards the drawer and took out the apple pendant necklace, examining it.The image of the necklace around Margaret's neck flashed through my mind.“There are only two of these in the world,” I whispered, gripping the necklace tightly.I sucked in a deep breath and dropped the necklace before turning around to reach for my phone.I quickly dialed Margaret's number and waited as the phone rang.The moment the call connected, I pressed the phone to my ear, waiting for her voice.“Hello?”My stomach turned the moment her voice drift

    SKYLAR My eyes remained glued to the closed door that she had walked through, my heart clenching in anger. The anger wasn't directed at her, but at myself. For being foolish and sticking to Anastasia's side instead. I had done it, not for Anastasia, but for her. I looked up at my mom and saw th

    SKYLAR I stiffened against her as she slammed her lips on mine. Confusion swelled up in me as she took my lower lip into her mouth, moaning into my mouth. Weren't we arguing a moment ago about her ex-husband? Now she had her hands around my neck, kissing me like her life depended on it.Instead of

    ASHLEY I grasped his hand, panting and thinking of ways to escape him and the blade. “If you move, you'll lose your life," he spat out, pinning the cold blade closer to my flesh. I let out a gasp, my eyes widening in horror. I quieted down and let go of his hand. "There, good girl, there,” he
