ARDEN

I slammed into the man with everything I had.

We both went down hard and the crate crashed right where he was standing. The impact was explosive and it sent the beer and broken glass flying everywhere making a massive sound.

Harry ran to my side immediately, "Arden! Are you okay?"

"I'm fine," I said, but my palms were hurting painfully from hitting the concrete and my knees were throbbing inside my stockings.

Before I could even get myself together, everybody started yelling at once.

    ARDEN My desk looked like a tornado had hit it. There were papers everywhere. Printouts of game character designs, marketing campaign examples from other companies and energy drink cans stacked in a corner. I had been living and breathing Epic Games for weeks now. It had been three weeks since I handed Sophia Lane that thread and watched her unravel everything. The families had tried to fly their daughters out of the country the moment the investigation started gaining traction. But the travel ban stopped them. Sophia had made the case public enough that running wasn't an option anymore.The trial wasn't perfect as Sawyer denied ever speaking to the girls. They got six months of community service. Light considering what they did. Their lawyers argued they didn't push Blair, they had just created a hostile environment. But at least their faces were plastered everywhere. Everyone knew what they had done. Daisy and her mother moved to Connecticut last week. New school. Full schola

    ARDENThe security guards immediately released my arms and stepped back.I almost stumbled forward from the sudden lack of resistance. My breathing was heavy from struggling and my hair had come loose from its ponytail.I turned around still trying to catch my breath.A woman was getting out of the car that had just pulled up. It was sleek and black and looked like it cost more than most people's houses.She was tall. Probably five foot nine or ten. Dressed in a cream colored pantsuit that fit her perfectly. Her dark hair was pulled back in a low bun. Diamond studs in her ears caught the light.She looked like the physical representation of wealth, elegance and power.There was something familiar about her face but I couldn't place it. As though I had seen her somewhere before but couldn't remember where.She walked toward us with confident, purposeful strides. Her heels clicked against the pavement.When she reached us she looked at the security guards. "What's going on here?"One of

    ARDENThe SUV drove through the dark streets in complete silence.Daisy sat next to me staring out the window. I could see her reflection in the glass. Tears were still streaming down her face.We pulled up to my apartment building and the driver got out to open our door."Thank you," I said quietly.He nodded and got back in the car.We watched the SUV drive away and then I led Daisy upstairs to my apartment.The moment we were inside and I locked the door behind us Daisy turned to me."Why did you agree to that?" she asked. Her voice was shaking. "Why did you say yes?"I looked at her frightened confused face and made a decision."It's best if you don't know the full plan right now," I said."What?""Just do exactly what Mrs. Sinclair said. Change your statement. Tell the police you were confused. This is the best option you have.""But Arden—""Daisy." I grabbed her shoulders gently. "Trust me. This is the right move."She stared at me with those wide scared eyes.I didn't tell he

    ARDENMrs. Sinclair set the folder down on the coffee table between us.Then she walked over to the chair across from the couch and sat down slowly. Got comfortable. Crossed her legs in one smooth elegant motion.Everything about her screamed power and control."I appreciate honesty," she said. "So I'm going to be honest with you."She looked at both of us. Her expression was calm and pleasant."My daughter Thea is a good girl," she continued. "Excellent student. Very bright. She has a wonderful future ahead of her. But like all teenagers she's made some mistakes. Poor judgment..bad influences."I stayed quiet and waited."This whole situation with Blair has been tragic for everyone involved," Mrs. Sinclair said. "Such a terrible loss. That poor girl. Her family must be devastated."She paused like she was giving a moment of respectful silence."But," she continued, "I don't believe my daughter was responsible. Not really. Not in the way people are suggesting."Daisy's hand tightened

    ARDENI fumbled with my keys trying to unlock the door as fast as possible.My hands were shaking slightly from the adrenaline still running through my system. I finally got the door open and pulled Daisy inside.I told her to hand me her phone so I could examine the messages myself. And I could clearly see more messages that hadn't been read sitting ominously in the inbox.I scrolled through the messages."You need to reconsider your testimony.""What you saw isn't what you think you saw.""Mistakes can be corrected before they become problems.""Think about your future. And your mother's future."That last one made my heart stop.I looked up at Daisy. "Did you tell anyone else about this? Your mom? The police?"She shook her head frantically. "No! My mom has been working double shifts all week. And I can't tell her because if I do she'll pull me out of school immediately. She'll think it's too dangerous.""It is dangerous Daisy.""I know! But if she pulls me out she'll try to get m

    ARDEN"I have to get back to work," I told Jett. "We came here during our lunch break and if I don't get back soon my boss is going to murder me.""I'll drive you," Jett said immediately.Before I could respond Rita inserted herself between us."We came here together and we'll leave together," she said firmly. "Right Arden?"Jett didn't even look at her.He kept his eyes on me. "You shouldn't forget that you owe me one now. I'm going to cash in on that favor eventually."My stomach did that weird flip thing again."I won't forget," I said.Jett's mouth curved slightly. "Good. I'll see you around Arden."Then he turned and walked away without another word.I watched his back as he made his way through the store and disappeared into the parking lot."Wow," Rita said the second he was out of earshot. "How rude. Ignoring me like that. Acting so full of himself. Who does he think he is anyway?"I turned to look at her. "He's a doctor. He was in charge of my mother's treatment before she pa

"What are you doing here?""Something brought me around so I decided to stop by," I said, which was a complete lie and we both knew it.A wo

Rita looked surprised and annoyed but then she changed her face to relief.“Thats good to hear! Well, Mr Richard wants to see

    ARDEN The rest of the workers slid into their usual spots. It was a tight squeeze and somehow I ended up sandwiched between Harry and Big Mike with Dominic. "You guys come here that often?" Harry asked. "Every day that God gives us," Big Mike said proudly. Rosie came back with coffee first and s
