“What happened?” I ask again when Damian doesn’t answer me the first time."Do you know if Grace’s parents are still alive?" he asks.I nod. “Yes, they’re staying in Chicago last I checked. Why?" I ask.He hands me his phone. It’s a social media post about how Grace abandoned her family to be with me. How her brother is sick and being with me made her ignore their pleas for help."Get rid of this post and anyone who tries to spread this..." I tell him. Damian nods.Andre swears under his breath and speeds up.“What’s going on?” I ask.“Someone reported Damian to the police” he says.Fucking hell. This was one bad thing after another. When were we going to get a fucking rest day.“Damain, you need to get out of the car, and I’ll have someone pick you up and take you to mom and dad’s place. They’ll be your alibi you’ve been with them all night to you hear me?” I warned my brother.He can’t mess this up.He sighs and nods. “I didn’t go out last night. I was in my apartment all night…” h

Chapter 32Grace PriestPOVSeeing them today really put me on edge. I didn’t expect to see them at all. They all looked well taken care of, my mother’s yellow teeth replaced with white rows now. Did they really get better once I was gone?Am I really the reason they’ve struggled so long?I sit in the dark room Mia said I should wait for Rowan. I try to stay calm but it’s not happening, what if my parents demand things from Rowan?I could never live with myself if they caused trouble for him.Life has been a dream since I’ve moved in with Rowan, I have full meals every day, I have all the technology known to man. There are so many books available for me to read. I’ll never be able to finish reading all of the books here.I bite my nails as I wait. I hope my parents didn’t cause trouble for Rowan. I pray they didn’t.“Grace?” Rowan calls out to me.My head snaps up. I jump up. “I waited for you…” I say softly.He nods a strange expression on his face. He switches the light on. I see a

Chapter 33 Rowan PriestPOV“I’m sorry I pushed you when you weren’t ready…” Andre says from beside me.We’re sitting on the beach front watching the waves in the dark.I look over at him before shaking my head. “I was just remembering the day I asked Angie to be my girlfriend. This isn’t your fault…” I tell him.“I know you don’t want to hear this, but Angie wasn’t perfect. The way you remember her might not be the way everyone else saw her…” he says softly.My head snaps to him. “What’s that supposed to mean?” I ask him.He looks away from me he traces his finger in the sand. “My sister had a lot of secrets she had even more darkness inside of her we didn’t have. I know she’s my little sister but sometimes she scared me…” he confesses.I look over at him, but don’t say anything. Andre and Angie were never close. She was a daddy’s little girl her father got her whatever she wanted; I spoiled her as well. Andre had to work blood sweat and tears to even see a penny.When he realizes I

Chapter 34 Part 1Rowan PriestPOVWhen Grace meets Andre, she's tense. When we arrived Andre waiting for us outside the company jet. He opened the door for me. Instead of Grace’s door because he could feel the fear radiating off her from a mile away. I walked around stopping Andre from opening her door.I didn’t think she had it in her to be this quiet. Once she was out of the car, I introduced them. Remembering the conversation Andre and I had last week.I had to explain what Andre told me last week to her. Explain what he told me about how he'd warned her. The way she nearly had a panic attack tells me one look from him and she'll be a mess. My instinct is to protect her even though I know he'd never hurt her. It took a whole half an hour to have her shoulders relax. When she stepped on the plane after Andre me right behind her. The private plane my family uses for business, well all of us except Damian. The shithead uses it for pleasure more times than not. Though I don't blame hi

Chapter 36 Rowan Priest POV Sitting in my office waiting to hear back from Missy. Today was Grace’s first day of classes. I feel like a concerned father. I hope she’s made at least one friend. I didn’t expect she’d want me to walk her to class. I expected her to want to walk alone so she could separate her home life from her school life. I didn’t expect her to be that scared and nervous for classes to begin. She’s been so excited for months and now she’s scared of classes?

Her chin resting in her hand. “Tell about your mom?” she asks.“My mother?” I ask, taken aback by the sudden subject change.She nods.“My mom, Melissa…” her name tastes as bitter on my lips. “There’s not much to know about her. She’s into the bad things. I don’t like talking about her actually…” it’s the first time I’ve ever refused to tell Amara something. But talking about Melissa upsets me. Rowan told me if
