" Where's Gray ?" Reid asks me as he glances from me to Sarai.
" He's not in." I reply and cross my arms.
" Then why are you here ?" He asks me.
" None of your business , Reid. I'm sure he's speaking with Mr. Tucker. You can look for him around." I say.
He huffs and stares at Sarai before leaving.
" What are you doing here ?" I ask Sarai again. She gives me her fake smile and walks out from the desk.
" I am here to see Gray."
" Gray's not here. Why are you holding a flashdrive ?"
" The last time I checked , you're Ariel Peterson and not a detective. What's your issues ?"
I cross my arms and blink my eyes at her. She's so weird. Deep down , I have this feeling she is working secretly for Reid.
" Can I see the flashdrive ?"

" You were frigh

That's so embarrassing. Gray and I pull away from each other and I rub my nape. Most people look at us and go back to their business murmuring amongst themselves." How was your ride ?" I ask her and squat to her height." It was fun."" Who bought you popcorn ?" Gray asks looking down at her." I bought it. From my cursing savings if you choose to ask." She rolls her eyes and stuff her mouth filled with popcorns." How long have you been standing there ?" Gray asks." Long enough to count the stars in one night. You should see your faces. Chill , you look cute." She giggles.I blush and eat my cotton candy." Want some ?" I ask Gray." Hell no." He whines and shove his hands into his front pocket."

Gray parks his car in his garage and we get out. Kennedy rushes out of the car and race into the house." Crazy kid."" I bet she got that from you." I say closing my side door." I bet not. I'm not that crazy. She just literally broke someone's nose and act like it's nothing." Gray sighs and turns around to my side." You've killed people and act like it's nothing." I smirk and grab his jacket collar to pull him closer." Really ?" He raises his brows and seductively bites his bottom lip." Yeah." I reply and wrap my arms around his neck. He smell so good. His breath fans my neck and I close my eyes to lean into his gentle assault. His right hand move slowly on my thighs to my hips as he bites my earlobe." Gray , we're outside."" And this is my house." He whispers and suck the skin below my ear. I gasp to the feeling and tug on his hair. He licks my skin and suck on it moving down to my neck. I throw my h

Start coming home or I'm coming to get you."I blink my eyes to the information and look around the parked cars for anything that look like Vladimir. There's no one instead of fleet of cars around the park." Ariel."" How did you know?"" Manny is

Yeah , because I'm dating Gray and she couldn't make him look at her.I ruffle Kennedy's hair and smile at her before slipping out of her room. I open Gray's bedroom door and walk in. He sits on his bed with a laptop on his lap and he's typing. I roll my eyes and shut the door." I thought you will stand there forever." Gray says as I walk to his bed." How come you notice everything ? Even the slightest thing ?" I ask and stand in front of him beside the bed.He chuckles and push the laptop aside from his lap.

I mean this is New York , what am I supposed to expect.I push the blanket aside and sit up on the bed with my feet not even close to the floor. I sigh and walk to the floor to ceiling glass walls that view the city. I itch my eyelids and push the white drapes aside. I look down at the city below the penthouse and they look tiny.I go to the bathroom to brush my teeth and yesterday’s incident flows into my head. Gangsters.
