I woke up very early, mostly because I was dreaming about her. After I failed to go back to sleep, I decided to get ready for work, I went into Isabella's room and she was sleeping so peacefully I didn't have the guts to wake her up.

Isabella's POV.  I didn't know that Tristan was this kind of a man, tonight he gave me the ultimate shock. I did not expect what happened tonight to happen.

I had to play nice like he wanted me, it is not like I can control what comes out of people's lips, I have no control over that at all.  I agree that he was rather flirting with me but I didn't take it seriously, he was with his girlfriend and I didn't really think that he was actually serious about what he was saying to me, little did I know that Tristan was boiling in his seat.

If It's Mine, Don't Touch It
 Tristan's POV   I don't know what was going through my mind when I said yes to going out tonight, especially since Isabella is hell bent on defying me on everything I tell her. First of she was flirting with my new business partner, I didn't like it and when I tried to tell her about it she downplayed the whole thing, made it seem like I was crazy or I didn't see what I saw. I then realised that Isabella has to know that there's consequences for her actions and that I don't let things slide easily, this is why I woke her up very early in the morning.     I made her run a distance no one would run on their first time. She was tired but most of very sore when we came back, I would like to say that I wish I took pleasure by seeing her in pain but that would be a colossal lie.

When A Bull Sees Red
Tristan's POV  They say that heavy is the head that wears crown, I now understand that term better than anything. It is not much about the weight of the crown but the duties that comes with the crown, the endless responsibility.

I know that she won't understand but I can't let it happen, I am a man and my pride won't let it happen.

When Life Comes Calling
Bradley's POV  Do you know that feeling you get when you have found that one person who understands you like no one does, someone who sees your vision as clearly as you do? It is a feeling like no other. Like you are floating in the clouds. I am Bradley and I am the first born, the one who does all the dirty work and somehow I am often seen as the bad guy and why? Because I run all of my father's illegal businesses, as hard as it may be to believe, this is not the life I had planned for myself.  I had dreams but I also had siblings, little brothers I had to take care of after my mother was gone. I grew up living a very comfortable life and I always knew that it was not because my father was a good man, far from it. When I came of age he wanted me to join the family business, I felt like I had no choice but to do it, especially since I didn't want my little brothers to join in as well. We couldn't all just grow up to

Lemonade For Me
Brandon's POV They say that when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. I wish I knew how to make lemonade out of the sour taste my father has made for us. I swear my father thinks that the world revolves around him. He thinks that he can do anything without any questions. I don't know I like the way things are going right now. Last night's family dinner was a disaster, I must admit that it has been a while since we have had that kind of drama. I don't know where it all began or how this even happened but I know that things are bad. Let me break it down for you, last night was suppose to be a normal family dinner but instead it turned out to be something totally different. I was the second one to arrive, it was rather strange finding Tristan there, I say this because he is always the last one to arrive. I also thought that I will see Isabella there like my father had asked of him but that didn't happen. Tristan said that Isabella had come dow

When It Rains It Pours
Isabella's POV  I don't know if it just me but I feel like Tristan has been acting a little strange for the last few days. He is very distant and even when he is here, it is like his mind is elsewhere. I think that it has to do with the family dinner he went to on Sunday. He came back earlier than I thought he would and when he did, he didn't say anything to me. He just went to the liquor cabinet and poured himself a drink, he had another one and went straight to his bedroom.  I didn't even know if I should even ask him anything so I just sat there and binged on Netflix. I had my wine with me. I went to bed late and when I woke up he was already gone for work. Still I paid no mind to it, it's not like this is a real relationship and so he doesn't have to kiss me goodbye. I finally decided to enroll into a programme, they offered online classes but I decided to enrol as a full time student. I was waiting for a reply and if I
