Aaron pov

AaronI stared at the message until the screen went dark in my hand.You left without saying goodbye.Only one person would send something like that and somehow make it feel like a command, a complaint, and a threat at the same time.Zayden.I read it again, jaw tightening. The nerve of him. After everything that had happened, after the chaos, after the way he lived like everyone around him had to move according to his rules, this was what he chose to say.Not Are you alright?Not Did you get there safely?Not even Talk to me.Just that.You left without saying goodbye.I tossed the phone onto the bed and paced across the room.“What exactly did he expect?” I muttered. “A farewell speech?”The worst part was that my heart had kicked the moment I saw his message. I hated that reaction. Hated that even from miles away, he could still get under my skin with six words.I picked the phone back up and typed before I could stop myself.I didn’t know I needed permission to leave.I sent it im

They found you

AaronI barely slept.Every sound outside made me open my eyes. Every passing car, every branch scraping the window, every shift of the house settling into the night made my chest tighten for a second before reason returned.By morning, reason felt exhausted.I got up late to the smell of frying plantain and eggs.My mother believed food could fix nearly everything. Heartbreak, headaches, unemployment, bad moods, global conflict. If it existed, she would try to feed it away.I dragged myself into the kitchen.She looked up once and frowned. “You look terrible.”“Good morning to you too.”“You were awake half the night.”“You were spying on me?”“I am your mother. I do not need to spy.”I sat down, too tired to argue.She placed a plate in front of me and then casually said, “Someone dropped flowers at the gate.”I blinked. “What?”“Flowers.” She pointed toward the living room. “Very expensive looking ones too.”I stood immediately and walked in.A bouquet the size of a small tree sat

Kissed two brothers

AaronThe first gunshot shattered the front window.Glass exploded across the living room in a spray of glittering shards. My mother screamed and dropped to the floor. I barely had time to move before Slate grabbed the back of my shirt and yanked me down with him.“Stay low!”Another shot tore through the wall where my head had been a second earlier.My pulse slammed so hard it felt painful.This was happening.At my mother’s house.Because of me. Because of them.Zayden didn’t flinch.He moved like he had been waiting for chaos his entire life.One hand shoved the sofa sideways to create cover. The other fired twice through the broken window with terrifying precision.Outside, someone shouted.Then silence.Then tires squealed again.My mother clutched my arm so tightly it hurt.“Aaron!”“I’m here,” I said breathlessly, dragging her further down behind the couch.Slate crouched beside us, gun raised toward the entrance.“How many?” he barked at Zayden.“Three outside. Maybe more.”“M

AaronWe ran through the alley with no plan except getting away.My mother’s slippers slapped against the pavement as she hurried beside me, one hand gripping her handbag, the other clutched tightly in mine. I kept pulling her forward, glancing back more times than I should have.Gunfire still echoed from the street behind us.Every sound made my pulse jump.“This,” my mother said between breaths, “is why I told you to date sensible men.”“Mom, please.”“I said men with office jobs. Men who complain about meetings. Men who own calculators.”“We are being chased!”“And whose fault is that?”Even then, I nearly laughed.At the end of the alley, a black SUV waited with the engine running. The driver stepped out the second he saw us and opened the back door.“Mr. Aaron.”My mother slowed and gave him a suspicious look.“Why does an armed stranger know my child?”“Mother.”He wisely kept silent.I helped her inside and climbed in after her. The door shut, and the vehicle pulled away at onc

Interesting

AaronFor a moment, no one spoke.My mother remained standing in the center of the room like a woman prepared to fight four grown adults for a pot of food.Zayden was the first to recover.“No.”His tone was calm, but final.My mother turned to him slowly.“You brought danger to my house, frightened me half to death, and now you want to stop me from saving my dinner?”“Yes.”I covered my face with one hand.Slate laughed into his teacup.“That was brave,” he said to my mother. “I respect it.”She pointed at him next.“And you. Stop smiling like a fool. You were bleeding on my sofa.”“I’m charming when injured.”“You are annoying when conscious.”Slate looked delighted.I wanted the floor to open and swallow me.My mother turned back to Zayden.“Young man, move.”“No.”She took one step closer to him.He did not move.She took another.Still nothing.Then she reached up and flicked his forehead directly over the cut above his eyebrow.I gasped.Slate nearly choked laughing.Zayden blin

AaronNobody moved.The sound of the alarm still echoed faintly through the house, but inside the room everything had gone strangely quiet.I stared at the screen.The woman outside the gate stood with the kind of confidence that made security guards nervous and rich men uncomfortable. She was elegant, perfectly composed, and looked like she had never once been told no in her life.She also looked directly into the camera like she already knew she would be let in.Slate stepped beside me and folded his arms.“Well,” he said quietly. “That explains the attitude.”I barely heard him.My eyes were fixed on Zayden.He hadn’t said a word.No sarcastic comment. No denial. No order.Nothing.That frightened me more than shouting would have.I looked back at the screen, then at him again.“Who is she?”Zayden’s jaw tightened.“A complication.”“Oh, that is not an answer.”“It is the only one you’re getting right now.”I laughed once in disbelief.“Unbelievable.”The woman’s voice came through

Awakard

AaronThe room didn’t recover after that.It just… shifted into something else.My mother was opening cake like nothing important had happened. Slate looked like he was trying not to laugh at my suffering. Zayden’s mother sat like she had just rearranged the entire atmosphere and didn’t feel the need to explain anything.And me?I was still stuck on one sentence.In love.I exhaled slowly and turned toward Zayden.“You’re going to say something.”He didn’t look at me immediately. When he finally did, his expression was controlled again, like he had carefully placed it back into position.“There is nothing to say.”“That’s your answer?”“It is sufficient.”Slate made a small sound like he was enjoying a private joke.I ignored him.“Your mother just walked in here and announced you are in love with me in front of everyone and you think ‘there is nothing to say’ is enough?”Zayden’s gaze didn’t move.“My mother exaggerates.”His mother smiled softly from her chair.“I don’t.”That lande

Avoiding you

Aaron“That is the problem.”I stared at him, waiting for something more.An explanation.Anything that would make that sentence less frustrating.Nothing came.His mother watched the two of us like this was a performance she had seen before.I let out a slow breath. “No. That’s not an answer. That’s you avoiding one.”Zayden’s jaw tightened, just slightly.“I am not avoiding anything.”“You are,” I said immediately. “You always do this. You say something that sounds important and then refuse to explain it.”His gaze sharpened. “And you expect explanations for everything?”“Yes,” I snapped. “Especially when it involves my life being turned upside down.”Silence stretched between us.His mother finally stepped in, her voice softer now.“He means that whatever you are to him is no longer simple.”I looked at her.“It was never simple.”She smiled faintly. “No, but now it’s dangerous in a way that cannot be undone.”I turned back to Zayden.“And whose fault is that?”He didn’t hesitate.

How do you know Zayden

AaronI didn’t like how that sounded.Not the words themselves, but the way he said them, like he had already reached a conclusion and was just waiting for me to catch up.I kept my face neutral. “People say that sometimes.”“Do they?” Voss asked.“Yes. That I remind them of someone.”“That’s not what I meant.”Of course not.I shifted slightly, folding my arms. “Then what did you mean?”He didn’t answer right away. Instead, he walked toward the glass wall and adjusted the blinds, lowering them just enough to block most of the office view.Something about that made me more alert.It was still an office. Still normal. I reminded myself of that.When he turned back, his attention settled on me again.“Where did you work before this?”The question was simple, but the way he asked it wasn’t.“I’ve had a few jobs,” I said carefully. “Nothing major.”“Be specific.”I paused, just for a second.He noticed.I could tell.“I worked in hospitality,” I continued. “Then some administrative roles.
