I cuddle tight to Gray as he caresses my back." How's your internship ? You like it ?"" Theo's my boss. Such an asshole but he's manageable , just annoying." I reply." You wanna quit ? I can get you somewhere better."" Sterling Corp is cool. I like my job. He didn't really make nasty comments though. It's weird he knew we're together."" How did he know ?"" Weird right ? Remember you kissed me in front an entire college population yesterday." I smirk and thread my fingers through his hair." He wasn't hard on you right ?"" He won't even dare." I mutter." If he dares try to flirt with you , tell me. He's such a dick sometimes." He says and smack my butt." Yes boss." I giggle and wrap my arms around his torso." So where do you like to go ?" " What ?" He smirks and hover on top of me with me under his hold. His left hand stay on my lower back while the other run

~ARIEL~ I watch them walk into Sin's kitchen and it's annoying I wanted to follow them inside but that might he risky. She wouldn't sell me out right ? Alexa can't be working for Vladimir , right ?I slide into my car and drive to work. As usual , I'm late. I park in the lot and I get out. People who choose to look at me looked as I rush in. Hell , I remembered Theo's morning routine. Coffee with less sugar and cream. I groan and rush out of the company and race down the sidewalk to get coffee in the nearby Cafe. After buying the coffee , I decide to buy doughnuts from a doughnut truck outside Sterling Corp. I'm hungry as hell. I greet the lady at the front as I walk past her." Ariel , Peterson." A lady with black slacks and light pink dress shirt that's tucked in , greeted me.I stop on my track and stare at me. Her smile is so fake , you could tell through her lashes." I'm the manager actually. You're the intern ?"

I hum to the song on the radio as I drive to Gray's. I'm meeting him in his office and for some silly reasons I'm feeling hot in unsual places.Just thinking about his text and most of the silly things we've done together , I really wanna have him in his office. I know I'm beginning to sound weird but hell, I don't care. He changed me and I sort of like my new me. I breathe in and park my car amidst other cars. I look at the tall glass building and ogle at it. I mean this is Gray Carter we're talking about. I should at least expect this type of magnificent buildings from him. I breathe in and step out of the car. I shut the door and walk into the company. I stop at the reception to see a brown haired lady. She looks up at me and scowl. What's her problem ?" I'm sorry , I'm here to see Gray." I say politely." Are you Ariel ?" She scowls, eyeing my choice of outfit. " Yeah. I'm here to see Gray."" Yea

" 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 ?"" Why should I give it to you ? It's a business drive that contains information about Gray's clients. I was here to check before you barged in."" You were frigh

I groan helplessly and scrub my scalp rather too aggressive to wash away the eggs . This is frustrating. I shampoo my hair to get rid of the eggs under the shower. God remind me next time not to play this type of game with Kennedy. Gray steps under the shower with me and I least expected that. I mean there are two shower faucets in the bathroom.He scrunches his face and scrubs his hair. Kennedy broke an egg on his head. So gross." She's so crazy..." He mutters scrubbing hard on his scalp.I roll my eyes and turn around to back him as I wash my hair." Lemme help you with that." He says behind me.My body tenses with Gray standing behind me. He massages my scalp as the water rinse our body . " Why didn't you tell me Sarai was holding a flash drive yesterday when she entered my office ?" He asks. I bite my lip and sigh." I'm sorry. I just don't wanna complicate things between you and your worker."" How did you fin

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." Come on buddy , you don't wanna turn my offer down." I whisper to his ear. He groans and opens his mouth for me to stuff cotton candy in it." This taste terrible." He mutters ,

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

I text Brandon and Piper that I'm leaving and apologize for not driving them back. Piper called and told me to go ahead that they're fine and not ready to leave. My phone rings and I pull it out from my pocket." Gray."" Are you still at frat?"" Yeah but I'm about leaving. Alexa sent me a text to meet her at school's lot."" Ariel , it's 10pm. You should come home."" Gray I need to discuss something with her. It's been long I last saw her and we need to talk." I say and slide into my car." Are you inside your car?"" Yeah."" Come home straight. You shouldn't go there. Manny just called me that he saw Vladimir's men around that frat house. 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

I mutter to myself and smack the steering wheel at the stupid traffic. Alexa is in the hospital , but why? Did he shoot her? I sigh and look ahead of the traffic , vehicles already started moving.Gray chose to follow me but I refused. I wanted him to stay back while I rush to the hospital to check on her. I just hope she's okay. But what if she's not? They found her body on her doorpost. I speed past other cars and halt outside the hospital. I rush out of my car and shut the door furiously. I run into the hospital to the waiting room and Piper is waiting with Brandon." Ariel."" What happened? Where's she ?" I ask and take in deep breaths." She's in her hospital room. She got shot and someone dumped her almost unconscious body on her doorstep. The frat guys who returned from frat yesterday night found her unconscious and rush her here. We were informed yesterday but we had to check in today. The doctor in charge asked us to call her mom."

I watch Jhene help her baby with her bags. She won't stop glaring at me and it's totally annoying. What's her problem ? 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. He grabs my waist and pulls me down on his lap." Where have you been ?" He whispers into my hair. " I've been looking for you all my life." He continues , caressing my thighs.I chuckle at his flirty attempt and smirk at him. He raises his brows and tilts his head to the side waiting for an answe
