Iris's P.O.V
I decided to follow Edward as he dropped off Louisa at school so he could also drop me off at work.
Tomorrow makes it a complete month since I started working with Hunter and I never stopped sending spiritual messages to his official secretary begging her to cease vacating.
We were driving down a two way highway at moderate speed as the road seemed a little crowded.
The car was silent mostly but it did nothing to hide the way Edward had been throwing me side glances here and there.
For the past week Edward and Guillermo have been acting strange around me and I can't seem to place a finger on why.
The silence between us grew to a level of awkwardness and if he isn't ready to speak up, I will.
" Fine weather we've been having recently"

Hunter's P.O.V.———————" You know you could have just gotten here yourself and informed me when you did?" I angrily say to Dylan as we come down from the car and sight Edward approaching.He literally just arrived in New York and the dumbo had to give me a call to come get him.Then he officially became a Google map in the car because he directed me all the way from the airport to my house.General point of summary, He just wasted my time." And forfeit pissing you off? Not in a million years" he scoffed and pulled out his luggage from the trunk." Good to know" I glared at him and collected one of his two boxes from his hands." It's nice to at least set eyes on the good cousin for one" Edward says as he g

Hunter's P.O.V."Dude, it's almost nine pm, where's your secretary? She isn't picking my calls" Dylan whined as he walked into my room only wearing a very loose fitting singlet and a pair of joggers." Do I look like someone who cares" I was sitting on the couch by the window and overviewing the area.We could really use some lawn mowing." Then call her. She might not answer me but her boss might be an exception"I laughed tremendously at his thoughts or suggestion or whatever he just vomited from his mouth.I may have an idea on where Iris is or should I say who she's with and if I'm right then she will never answer my call." I have better things to do with my phone" I replied after my laughter had subsided as Dylan rested beside me." Yeah right" he rolled his eyes and l

Iris P.O.V." I can't believe three idiots and an elder are under the same roof!" Guess who's on the phone?If you called Megan then you're correct." Look I know you love your brother and hate Hunter but there's no need for name calling" I chuckled into the receiver. She called in the office at around eleven am and this is some minutes to one in the afternoon. We really have a lot to cover and discuss." Don't give yourself credits, when I said elder? I meant Louisa" That was a pang to the chest." Ouch! Megan!" " Oh shush mush.. I'm still angry with you. It's really annoying that I got to hear of this Mason Reid through Dylan" I feel bad that she had to hear it from him too, but it'

Hunter's P.O.V.———————–" I'll send in some to Charlotte later in the day tomorrow" Guillermo said as he stepped out of the living room, to which I only nodded. My eyes were on the television screen but my brain is only replaying the meeting I had with Dorado exports. What exactly do those men take me for? A fool? I even scheduled us another meeting and yet they had no hints that their plans were as useless as dust. Another Saturday night and I'm enjoying a solo movie with a humble glass of whiskey. Then my phone chimed.Dad. I answered the call and waited for him to say something into the receiver.I'm actually pissed off at him." Hunter?"" Yes Dad?"

Hunter's P.O.V Today has been truly another frustrating day in my life and I am honestly having an internal brain drain between my stomach and my head. Chance stopped by the office and I sincerely don't know how, but he convinced me to a night out with him. Now I'm at the bar in a club drowning my self in various types of liquor.On a Monday night.I have a feeling deep down, that I will regret this later." So what do you intend to do about Jules and Mason?" Everyone keeps asking what I intend to do like I can do anything, they're far too gone to bring back.And he calls her Jules too? Wow." What do you think?" I gulped down another glass with it's flavor stinging my throat as it went down. I gestured to the bartender for a

Iris's P.O.V." If I had a say in this, I'd like to wonder why you were called?" Edward said after a yawn.We were already driving down to the address Chance had given over the phone.The road was too quiet and except for a few bodies moving in corners and Shadow's whom I presume to be notorious teenagers, nothing else was found.The half Moon illuminated the road as well as the street lights and our car moved somewhat slowly with me in the passenger seat." Huh?"" I mean it's midnight and that alley is notorious for all things not positive, so why would Chance call up a lady specifically you at this time to come get Hunter?" He explained further but his voice was extremely hoarse." Maybe cause I was the nearest contact he could reach?"" I don't believe that. Mr Chance is very good friend of Hunter

Iris's P.O.V. It's seven forty two am, and I've already been up for the past one hour or so.It's not like I had enough sleep either. Or rather I couldn't sleep. I just finished waving Louisa a goodbye as Edward drove her off to school. His eye bags a simple explanation of his lack of sleep. I walked into the kitchen and met Cheryn and Guillermo having breakfast and chatting away happily. I had already seen them earlier today when Louie had to eat breakfast, but there has been no difference in my mood from the time I saw them thirty minutes ago and now." Guillermo have you seen Hunter this morning?" I asked, feeling very apologetic for interrupting the twos discussion but I had to. Hunter had a photo shoot today by nine and I don't want us to be late.

Hunter's P.O.V." Mr McConnell, I'm so glad you could make it. The crew were beginning to worry you wouldn't" I met Mr Borolea, the owner of La Cherié magazines on the ground floor as I walked into the lobby at half past nine." I'm sorry for the delay Borolea. I encountered a minor problem"Minor problem also known as a tremendous headache.But it's subsided though." No worries. You're here now and that's all that matters" he extended his hand to me for a shake and that was when he noticed Iris beside me." And who may this lovely lady be?" His smile transformed from pleased to flirtatious in seconds." My secretary" I simply replied and she looked at me with almost a pout on her lips and scrunched up brows." Miss Jules" Iris introduced herself now knowing that I wouldn't do it for her.
