Alexa walks in holding a file. She just returned from a date from one of these unlucky horny assholes. She smirks and hands me the file. I look down at her outfit as i give Manny the files." The Russian shipment lands at the wind coast harbour five hours from now." I address the guys.
" Nick, you'll go alert the others. Make sure no Russian survive. Kill everyone, it's an order from your boss." I say as Nick nods.
" Manny will take the roof. Alexa you're coming with me." I say as she rolls her eyes.
She's always so feisty. Annoying part is, she's pretty but too annoying. Maybe I just have issues , probably I don't really like a lot of people.

****I shove my hands in my pocket as we look at the restaurant not too far from the building. I look through the binocular as i watch Francesso , a Russian mobster who sits at the restaurant opposite a brunette. They seem to be having fun cause the
~GRAY~" Ariel…"She smiles awkwardly and raises her eyebrows. She watches me like someone who just saw me. What's happening to her?" Who are you?" She asks. Oh fuck. Wait , this can't happen. It wasn't even a damn car accident , she can't just forget me so soon." You don't remember me?" I ask waiting patiently for the shocker." No."Oh no. This isn't really happening. The doctor didn't tell me she was gonna suffer brain issues to the extent of memory loss." Wait, you don't really remember me?" I ask , hoping and praying she remembers me." I'm really sorry. How did you get here? What's your name?" She asks. I thought she was caressing my hair few seconds ago." Where the fuck is that damn doctor?" I mutter and stand up." Jamal , wait!" She says my name.I halt and turn to look at her." How did you know my name?"She chuckles weakly." You really wanna bea
Chapter 82 " Damon is back." Jhene says. I turn to look at them. They seem deep in their conversation cause they didn't know I heard it. Considering the look on Gray's face, he's surprised. Kennedy's still talking, not pretty aware of what they are saying. " Damon went MIA, Jhene." Gray says. " Yeah?" " Five years ago. The military couldn't find his body after a year search." Jhene chuckles. She brings out her phone and shows something to Gray. Gray looks at the phone and looks up at me. His eyes meet mine. " Go to the kitchen , I'll meet you there." I whisper to Kennedy. She looks at me weirdly and back to Gray and Jhene. " Okay." She says and goes to the kitchen. " He was seen in New Jersey. A friend saw him and took that picture. How could he be back after leaving me for five years and he couldn't contact me or his baby. My child needs a father, Gray. Did
Chapter 83."Ace."" Wait , is that your brother?" Brandon asks. Alexa stands on her feet and stalks to the counter." Ace." He turns around as Alexa connects her fist on his cheek. Everyone gasps as I hurriedly rush to the scene. The girl with skimpy clothing whom I think must be his girlfriend blinks her fake lashes at us. Ace turns to look at us and Alexa backhands him right on his cheek." Oooh…" The customers gasp again." Alexa , what the fuck!" He cusses and massages his cheek." Damn, you remember." Alexa says and grabs him by his jacket." Hey, that's my boyfriend." The girl says." I'm just gonna shut up if I were you." Alexa says to the girl as she drags Ace outside. Piper and Brandon follows us outside and Alexa won't stop throwing punches at Ace." Ariel, are you gonna stop her not?" Bran
Chapter 84 " So how did you meet my son?" Mia asks as she gives me a glass of champagne. We're in a private cabin inside the yacht and it's so beautiful. The designs, chairs and everything is incredibly expensive. She stole me away from Gray after we exchanged pleasantries. " It's a long story." I tell her and take a sip from the champagne. " And the chemistry is really nice. He cares about you. Most times I thought he would never care about someone like the way he cared for you." I blush and smile, trying to think of a proper speech to keep up with the conversation. " I'm happy he's in love. You're pretty and young." She says , again I don't reply. " Nice party by the way. Happy birthday. Oh and I got you a gift." I say and drop the glass of champagne on the glass table as I reach to collect my bag. I bring out the box and give it to her. She smiles and takes it.
Chapter 85 " Damon." Mia calls as she looks at this new guest. Finally he looks at Mia as she sighs. Mia wraps her arms around the tall man and hugs him. " Damon?" I whisper to Gray. He sighs and shrugs. " Obviously." He scoffs. Okay , I remembered he doesn't like his brother. He was one of the first reasons Damon went MIA. " Oh my God." Mia cries on her son's shoulder. Damon caresses the petite woman's hair and smiles. He looks at Gray and me. Hate to admit , he's super cute. Like an older version of Gray. But Gray's kinda hotter. How old is he now , twenty eight? They disengage from the hug as Damon kisses Mia's temple. We stay put and watch in awe. " What happened to you?" Mia asks in tears. " Favorite son is back , hallelujah." Gray mutters. I nudged him in his ribs. He turns to look at me as I glare at him. Samara walks in suddenly. She stops on her track
Chapter 86 I smile in victory as I stare at the pregnancy test in my hand. Negative. Oh mercies. I can't believe Mia wants me to be pregnant. I mean she's got Kennedy for now and I'm not ready for one. I'm too young for that and plus Gray doesn't even want a baby. I get rid of the two pt which I used just to be sure as I wash my hands. Maybe I'm just getting the flu or the food doesn't match my stomach. I look at my reflection and walk back to the gathering. People are already dancing and Gray is having a conversation with Damon. Both of them glaring at each other as they talk. I see Mia with Antonio as they dance. Samara is talking with a friend. She had to scowl at me when Mia went to collect PT from her. She got those in her bag. So weird. Gray looks my way and walks out on Damon. Damon raises his glass of wine to his lips and looks at me. " You're okay?" " Yeah." " My mom gave you a PT."
Chapter 87 I blink my eyes and look down at this tatted arm around my waist. I look at my side and Gray's innocent face sleeps next to me. He holds me like I am gonna fall off or probably get kidnapped by some kidnappers. I turn to lay on my side as Gray's hand absently slides down my waist and stops right on my butt. My head lay on his other arm like a pillow and my leg is in between his. We're both still bare , barely covered by the white covers. I can't believe we sneak out of Mia's party to come have sex. I run my hand down Gray's bed hair as he squirms. I kiss his forehead and carefully unwrap his arms around me. I need a bath and I need to brush my teeth. I carefully slip my foot from between Gray's. I turn to get out of the bed but a strong tatted arm pulls me back as I let out a loud giggle. Gray presses a light kiss at my nape and then my shoulder. " Sneaking out?" He as
CHAPTER 88 " We need to talk..." I blink my eyes at her as she walks in. " Ariel, who's at the door?" Leslie asks and peeks her head out to the living room. She freezes when she sees mom. " Mom." Leslie mutters. My mom sighs and looks around our house. " Ariel, where's your room?" She asks. " Everything okay?" " No. Now where's your room?" She asks and stalks down the hallway. I follow behind her and point to my room. She opens it and we enter. I shut the door behind her and lean against it as I cross my arms. " I've been calling you for over a week now. You didn't respond to any of my calls." Mom starts. " Probably because I didn't see any calls." " Where did you go? I came here almost a week ago to check on you guys and Leslie told me you went on a trip. What type of trip?" I sigh." Mom, I went on a trip to Hawai
