Olivia isn’t surprised by the confession. She expected it. However, what astonishes her is that she somehow had an inkling conviction that Asher had been the one to take the life of his own father, the inflection in the boss’ timber having held an edge of vindicated hatred.

Olivia must be f*cked up in her own way, she recognizes, for the calmness that seeps inside her feels misplaced, improper to have been elicited by the pride of being able to read someone other than Mia.

Asher is an enigma, a puzzle of threads weaved together in what looks like an impossibly entangled canvas, yet, little by little, thread by thread, Olivia has been unraveling the clusters, rearranging them to delineate the hidden form within its core slowly.

So, and at the worry etching Asher’s features, Olivia says, “I figured as much with how you said it. I don’t know why, but… Yeah. How did it happen?”

“I don’t want to talk about it.”

“Are you okay?” Olivia asks, and it seems to be the wrong question to ask becau

    After a brief moment of hesitation, where she concludes facing Asher isn’t as damning as having her nape kissed so gently, Olivia swivels, and she doesn’t get to see Asher’s face. She refuses to before she scoots lower underneath the blanket until she reaches her destination.Her path leads her right under Asher’s chin, and she curls there, head on Asher’s bicep, as she tucks her face in the neck with a sigh. “Okay?”“It is.”“‘kay.” Olivia, similar to how Asher is, curves her left arm over the boss’ waist as she nestles further against him, finding shelter in the presence of another body so close to her own.However, her nape feels bare now, devoid of any warmth. “Want the kiss again.”“You’d have to move for that.”Olivia huffs, and instead of shooting a retort, she blindly looks for the wrist of Asher’s right hand, which she grabs and drags high up her neck.“You don't have to,” Asher says when he notices the pause in Olivia’s movement.“I know. I want to try.”And so Olivia contin

    Paul looks at Asher, who looks like a walking cold block of ice, void of any motions on his face. He asks with concern, “Asher, are you okay?”Asher blinks out of his trance and stares ahead as he replies, “Adam is right. Olivia has been a distraction.”“That’s not true,” Paul is quick to deny. “it's the exhaustion talking and the tournament approaching. Adam is cranky. Well, more than usual...”“Even then, he raised a point,” Asher says.Now Paul feels helpless, Asher is slowly closing off again. “He did not. Even if Olivia is a distraction, you're more than allowed to have it and enjoy it,” Paul assures Asher with a smile.“I should just focus on the tournament and all we've been dealing with.”“And that's what you've been doing, Asher,” Paul says. “Every day, you wake up and work nonstop until late at night. You should have that distraction.”“I don't think so.”“Did you talk to Adam? After the sleepover?” Paul asks without answering Asher.“I didn't,” Asher says truthfully.Paul s

To her surprise, she sees a text from the Mob Boss, who was disappeared for days.Olivia wants to talk to him so badly, but she is still a bit upset at him for ghosting her these days. She contemplates for two minutes before deciding to reply to the mob boss.Olivia: I don't know if you're still awake, but I'll go shower, and we can talk in twenty if you're hereAsh: I'm still awake, and take your time.

    Olivia is oddly not bothered by Asher calling her puppy. Instead, she feels it’s hot. If it were anyone else, she would have clawed their faces until she was satisfied. Why was it different this time? She shouldn’t feel differently about Asher’s words. This is not correct. Ash: I can hear you hiss from where I am Olivia: First of all: you don’t get yourself anything Ash: Right Olivia: You did not Olivia: Second of all: I’m not a puppy Ash: You’re a canine hybrid Ash: And Puppy is quick to type and also cuter Olivia: Third of all: I don’t sulk when you don’t give me attention Ash: Earlier would beg to differ Olivia: I wasn't sulking Ash: You were annoyed Ash: Same difference Olivia: I want to claw your face Olivia: That's the fact Ash: You were jealous Ash: That's also a fact Olivia: Oh my god Olivia: Yes, I was Olivia: I said it Olivia: I was jealous.

    Both stare at each other silently. Asher’s words ring in the silent room. His face is filled with uncertainty and hesitation but also assurance. He is willing to do that only if Olivia will accompany him during those nights.Olivia without even hearing his words understands the turmoil in Asher’s heart. “Of course, Asher. we can call, facetime, or text whenever there's one. I’ll always be there with you”“Thank you.” Asher’s face breaks into a smile.The genuine smile makes Olivia’s heart tingle “We'll make a bunch of good memories about storms so that the bad ones are gone.” She says with a smile.Asher looks surprised and delighted with the suggestion “I'd love that.”“Me too.”Olivia looks at Asher and suddenly she remembers something “Also, I'm learning how to bake.”“What? Why?” Asher looks confused and surprised.“I was supposed to give you a gift some time ago but it slipped my mind with all the mess that had been happening. And now I changed the present I want to give you.” Ol

    They both go silent after that, looking at each other's faces not knowing what to say."What?” Olivia starts, she was offended by the silence from Asher “Did I say something wrong?" she asks Asher with a smile.Asher’s face lit up and he shook his head "No, not at all."His answer made Olivia satisfied, she nodded her head with a happy smile on her face. "Was there a thunder on your side?""Yeah, something like that." Asher’s face dims remembering the situation he was trying to ignore.Olivia notices and asks with a soft voice "Do you want to talk about it?"Asher looks startled "About what?" he asks with confusion."Why you're scared of storms."Asher peruses his lips and goes silent. His tongue comes out to lick his dry lips. He shifts on his bed curling on to himself "There's nothing much to say.""I'm still listening if you want to share." Olivia doesn’t prob, but still tries to talk to him.Asher is not someone who opens up to someone about his shortcomings. He has been trained t

    “I could live in this car.” Olivia sighs into the leather seat.“I don’t think Mini would appreciate that,” Asher says from where he’s bent over, his arms propped on the edge of the rolled-down window.“Good point. She’s tiny but needs a lot of space, a bit like Steve.” Olivia snickers at her own joke, two duffle bags brimming with Asher’s clothes thrown over the seat next to where she’s installed at the back of the car.“I’ll tell him you say that.”“Go ahead, I’ve been meaning to fight him after Airhead.”“Brat.”Olivia peers up at Asher, catching the fond smile on the boss’ lips. “Thank you for the date.”“You’re welcome, and thank you too,” Asher says, his face close to Olivia. “You enjoyed yourself?”“Mhm, the most,” Olivia grins as she fastens her belt when the driver enters the vehicle“Me too,” Asher whispers, and with his index, he brushes a strand of hair away from Olivia’s forehead. “I won’t be able to text you much today, but I’ll do what I can to try.”“It’s fine, don’t w

    When Olivia wakes up a few hours later, it’s to an empty bed, Asher’s side on the mattress tidied up, the phone and iPad on the nightstand gone.It doesn’t take long for Olivia to figure out where the mob boss went when, and after relieving herself in the restroom, she climbs down the stairs to make her way to the dining room.Asher is seated at the end of the table installed in the corner of the bay windows and Olivia trudges up to the mob boss.Hands shoved in her pants pockets, Olivia knocks her foot on the leg of the chair Adam is occupying, the one directly on Asher’s left.“Move,” Olivia orders when Adam does not budge.Adam swivels around. “Say that again, GaintDog?”“That’s my seat. Move.”“How about you f*ck off before I shoot you in the knee?” Adam snaps when Olivia kicks the chair again. “It’s no one’s seat, however right now it’s mine because my a*s is on it.”“Adam, come on,” Walter intervenes from where he’s lounged further down the table, Mia by his sides. “They’re in t
