Lihat lebih banyak~ISLA~The mall was loud and bright with people walking all around as we walked in.A smile adorned my face as I looked around. I always loved the mall for some reason.It was like an escape whenever I was here.“What are we doing here?” Jaxon asked, turning my attention to him.“I'm getting you new clothes. As my bodyguard, you should be dressed appropriately” I told him and he frowned.“Where did you get the money?” He asked and I let out a nervous laugh.“You see, I took out a loan…”“What?” He asked in disbelief. “Listen, I took it out just in case I needed to bail you out but since that's not the case anymore, why don't we use it to shop? Besides, I'll pay it back when I've been paid my salary” I explained.“You don't have to spend your money on me, Isla” He told me and I nodded.“I know but I want to. You have helped me multiple times…”“You literally saved me” He interrupted and I nodded.“And you're paying back by being my bodyguard. It's only right I pay you in some kind of
~ISLA~ I tightened my grip on my bag as I took it as I walked over to the door.I hated that I was here.I haven't been here since the day I caught him and Cassandra and I was still reeling till this day.“In and out, Isla. You won't take too long in here” I muttered as I got on the porch but before I could knock on the door, it swung open.Aiden stood there in a fitted black shirt, sleeves rolled to his forearms with his hair styled and a smirk on his face.“Isla” He said softly like he used to when they were still together.I narrowed my eyes on him.“Let's cut through formalities, I didn't come here to chit chat with you. Jaxon got arrested which I'm sure you already know and I want him freed” I told him and he tilted his head.“It's not good manners to ask me for something before coming in, is it?” He murmured then side stepped, giving me access into his house.“I don't want to stay long…”“If you want me to help you then you'll come in” He interrupted and I pursed my lips bef
~JAXON/RONAN~ “Boss!”I didn't open my eyes as I laid my head on the cold concrete wall behind me.“Boss!” I let out a groan as soon as I heard Louis’ voice from down the hall, echoing through the cell walls.“Boss…”“Can you fucking shut your mouth. I'm not your boss outside, remember?” I muttered through clenched teeth as soon he stood in front of my cell.Luckily, I was the only inmate at that time.“Fuck, what happened?” His gaze swept over the cell before returning back to me.“This is unpleasant” He pointed out.“I've been in worse places,” I replied calmly.His jaw ticked but he said nothing.“Stop staring and Just fucking get me out already” I muttered and he nodded.“Yes Boss… i mean Jaxon” He corrected and at that moment, the head officer came running towards him with the officers who had arrested me behind him.“That's the man that was causing a disturbance, Sir,” One of the arresting officers said behind the head officer.As soon as he saw Louis, he let out a gasp as re
~ISLA~ I cleared my throat as I pushed the door open and walked into my small apartment. Jaxon walked in behind me and I immediately noticed he looked too big for my small space. “You've been here before but… yeah, this is where I live” I muttered as I watched Him walk around.There wasn't that much floor space anyways. Just a small kitchen by the side, one couch in front of my small tv then the bed behind it with a door at the side that led to the bathroom.The more I watched him, the more I realized that I was letting a total stranger into my house and not only that, I was letting him stay with me.Maybe this wasn't a good idea. Seeing him now, he didn't fit my aesthetic at all.I still couldn't believe a man like him could be poor.“How long?” He suddenly uttered, snapping me out of my thoughts.“How long what?” I asked and sucked in my breath as his blue eyes landed on me. I still wasn't used to how beautiful he was.“How long have you lived here?” He asked and I pursed my li
