Ashley POV “Careful”, I hear Theo shouting as I open my eyes and a bright light comes facing us. Elliot manages to move us from the car facing us, but we slam the car against a tree, and everything goes dark. I open my eyes, not knowing how long after, as I hear a commotion. I’m stuck, and my head is aching so much. I flinch as I look to my side, and Killian is bleeding from his head, and his eyes are closed. “Killian, baby”, I say, undoing my belt and getting closer to him. “Ashley, don’t move”, I hear Elliot say, and I look up to see guns pointing at the car from the outside. I gasp in horror. “What is going on?”, I ask in a low tone as the door next to me flies open, and someone holds on to me. “Let go of me, don’t touch me” I start kicking, but my body doesn’t really want to react. It Doesn’t want to obey me. “Stay still lass, you’re safe”, I hear a thick Irish accent. I frown, looking around as Killian is being moved from the car. His body was floppy and his eyes closed. “Kil

Killian POV I open my eyes and I am hit immediately by a shock of pain, my entire body aches and my head feels like it is about to explode. I frown and as I take my hand to my head I realize I have a cannula in. I look at my arm and then slowly look around the room, it's all white and clean. The liquid is being injected into my veins. I frown and sit up on the bed feeling a sharp pain in my right arm. Fuck. I look to see it all bandaged. What the hell? I pass my free hand through my hair and blink a couple of times. By the looks of this room and by what is happening I assume I am in some sort of private clinic. I see a bell and as I am about to press it the door opens and a blonde woman walks in. Her hight heels clicked on the white floor. “Oh, you’re awake, I’ll get the doctor”, she says as she smiles and walks out of the room again. I raise my eyebrows and a sense of panic takes over me as I remember what happened last night. Where is Ashley? Theo and Elliot? That was a massive att

Ashley POV I open my eyes and I cover them with my arm as I hear shouting coming from inside the house. I sit up looking back as I rest my sunglasses on my nose. What the hell is going on? I stand up as soon as I see Theo running towards me. I frown at the concern plastered all over his face. “What happened?”, I ask as he grabs my arm and starts pulling me toward the front of the house. What the hell is going on now? We have been living in this house for the past two months, my tan has never been this gold, and I am not going to lie, I am loving every second of it. Not having any responsibilities and spending as much time as I like with Killian. I know he has been worried about something, but as usual, he won’t tell me what it is, he says the less I know the safer it is for me. But hell I want to know what is going on in his life. And I sure as hell want to know what is going on now. Theo opens the back door of a black SUV and I climb in. He closes the door and slams his hand agains

Ashley POV “Where are you going? Why are you leaving me here? If we stay apart we are in more danger”, I let out, I can tell he is thinking about what I said, I don’t like the idea of being away from him, I know I am being selfish, and I am being completely irrational but I am scared, I am scared of losing him, I am scared he will get killed and I won’t be able to say goodbye. “I know what you mean love, but I need you to trust me, you being here I know you will be safe with Theo, if you came with me I would be focused on keeping you safe and not keeping me safe, and trust me when I say, I need to keep myself safe right now, I need you to understand that I am only trying to do the right thing here, I need you safe, I can’t even begin to imagine what I would feel if anything would’ve happened to you”, Killian says and I nod my head. I see him turning around and leaving the room leaving me with a hole in my stomach. I close my eyes and blink the tears away as I sit in the middle of th

Ashley POV Boat? This is not a boat, and this is a freaking yacht. I look at everything around me, and I blink a couple of times, trying to make sense of everything around me. “Second door on the right”, Theo says to a guy, and he nods his head as he walks past us. “Ash”, he says, and I turn around to look at him. I think he can see by my face that I am impressed by my surroundings, and he smiles. “Your room is on the second floor, third door on the left”, he says, giving me a small smile. I nod and look around, trying to figure out where to go. “That way”, he says, pointing at the open-plan living room, and I can see the stairs. Great. I smile, and I look around once more. I can see a swimming pool outside. Don’t get me wrong, and I know that Killian is rich, filthy rich. But I never thought he was going to be Richie Rich rich. I take a deep breath and walk towards the room that Elliot told me to, and I can feel the yacht moving. I guess we are going wherever we need to be. I o
