2021-07-15 17:30:39Summer's POV
Since moving in with her father Summer hadn't heard from or seen Michael. It was a refreshing break from the agonizing norm that she had had to endure for the past two years since her father sold her to him for power. Although she didn't necessarily want to be under the same roof as the bastard that helped create her, she found it easier to breath while with him.
Since being released from the hospital he had been too busy dealing with work related issues to even pay her any mind. Add in the scandal that Sarah stirred up and she never saw him around.
In the blink of an eye a week had passed and Summer had a meeting to discuss business with David Johnson. She initially didn't want to accept, but she couldn't ignore work related issues, so in the end she agreed.
He hadn't mentioned whether or not Asher would be there to join them. She wasn't sure if she was disappointed or relieved. She had wanted to see him t

Summer's POVThe room around was so silent you could hear a pin drop. Asher held Summer tightly as her thoughts began to take a dangerous turn.Could she actually go through with killing her father? Would she even be able to do it? If she ever wanted to be free that was her only option, but was she strong enough to succeed in it?"What's your answer?" Asher murmured his hot breath tickling her shoulder where his face was buried. "Will you run away with me?"Tensing Summer bit down on the yes that was trying to make its way out of her mouth.Right now was not the time to be getting swept away by beautiful expectations. Having only been part of her father's gang for a short time she knew that he was not an easy opponent."Summer." Asher's alluring voice was threatening to break all her resolve as he continued to try to sway her.Taking a deep breath she used both her hands to grip his arms

Summer's POVWeaving in and out of yards Summer tried to lose the men that were pursuing her.She didn't know how long it had been since she called David or if he even took her words seriously, but she was beginning to grow tired by the minute. If help didn't arrive soon she was going to be captured.Refusing to allow that to happen she picked up pace as the houses around her began to grow fewer in number until dwindling down entirely leaving her out in the open where the men could easily see her.She could hear the men cursing at her from behind as they continued to chase. It seemed their fear of her father's threat kept them going and they were catching up to her fast."YOU MIGHT AS WELL GIVE UP!" The man closest to her yelled as he reached out to grab at her.With a yelp she dodged his grasp causing her to stumble.The realization that she wasn't going to get anywhere by running hit her in that moment.

Summer's POV Asher remained in place clutching her like his life depended on it as Summer surveyed the area. All three of her father's men were knocked out cold and heavily injured. She still couldn't quite believe that Asher had been the one to do that to them. Especially the Asher that while growing up had been so meek. "You about done?" Although Summer would like to just remain like this she knew they needed to leave before her dad's goonies woke up. "If so we gotta get moving." Letting out a breath Asher loosened his hold on Summer's waist leaving her with a sense of loss as he removed his arms completely. "Who are these men?" He demanded standing up and taking in the men he had single handedly taken care of. "Why were they after you?" Summer couldn't help but roll her eyes. They were basically standing at a crime scene and Asher wanted answers right here and now. "Can we get out of h

Summer's POVSummer wasn't exactly sure how she should go about explaining why she came to be with her father. She didn't even know how she should tell Asher about the dark world he lived in. He was already blaming himself for what her stepfather did. How would he possibly take knowing how much worse things got for her?"Tell me." His pleading voice whispered. "Why did you disappear?"Taking a deep breath Summer braced herself for the onslaught of emotions she would face as she told him everything."I had no choice in the matter." She could feel her mouth growing dry as she tried to find the best way to reveal the truth. "When I woke up I was already in a foreign hospital.""Why though?" Asher's brows had furrowed from confusion. "Was your father even involved for the first eighteen years of your life? I don't remember you ever mentioning him.""That's because I never knew him."&nbs

Summer's POVBright blinding light pushed through the dreamless darkness that Summer was enjoying, beckoning her to wake up and embrace the new day where all her troubles were still very much existent.Sighing she allowed her eyes to open taking in the man that still slept soundly beside her.Up close Summer could make out every single freckle that littered his cheeks and nose. With a smile she found herself remembering how he used to hate his freckles, claiming that they made him look like a child. Now as an adult Summer found that they made him more dashing."Time to get up." She murmured reaching up a hand to push a stray auburn lock away from Asher's forehead.A grumble of protest erupted from his lips as he pulled Summer closer to him. "Five more minutes." He tried nuzzling against her chest."No time." They needed to get up and get moving, there wasn't time to sleep in and be idle.Letting out a groan of

Summer's POVSummer listened to the sound of water running as Asher showered. She had used the opportunity while he wasn't in the room to call and touch base with Reggie and Taylor, just to let them know that she had arrived at their chosen destination safe and sound. Promising to meet with them the following day she hung up and waited for Asher to finish washing.Despite knowing that she shouldn't be she couldn't help but feel nervous as she listened to the water turn off. After all she and Asher had already done everything there was to do, but she still felt like the eighteen year old her as she began to feel slight expectation at what would happen with just the two of them sharing a room.As the bathroom door opened and steam rushed out Summer felt her heart constrict painfully. Emerging from the room was a very shirtless and still slightly dripping wet Asher. She couldn't deny that the man looked damn good. Time had truly

Summer's POVStanding in the middle of a park Summer checked her watch for the fifth time. She and Asher had arrived at their current location five minutes prior and were currently waiting for Reggie and Taylor to make their appearance.She knew that they were ten minutes early for their appointment time, but she just couldn't stop the anxiety that was rushing through her."Time won't go faster with you watching it." Asher who was smoking a cigarette noted."That's a bad habit." Summer barked back taking a hit at the addiction that Asher had developed within the six years that they weren't together."Yeah, so I've heard." Asher said while taking another drag.Sighing Summer checked her watch once more. She knew that she shouldn't take her feelings out on Asher, but she just couldn't control the emotions that were swirling through her.It had already been over twenty four hours since she had run away from her father,

Summer's POV "....How much....." The irrirated voice drifted to Summer through her hazy state. "......Longer..." As Summer began to come to she felt a chill run up her spine at the voices that were breaking through her hazy state. Memories of what had happened right before she blacked out began to drift to her as she slowly became aware. "Did you use too much electricity?" Michael demanded sounding ready to explode. "Does it really matter?" Jackson responded in annoyance. "Worst that happens the bitch dies, best she wakes up an idiot." Summer had to stop herself from laughing at her father's harsh words, neither man had noticed that she had woken up yet and she wanted to keep it that way. "The men will be here soon." Michael huffed, "If she doesn't wake up soon what good will she be for them?" "I'm sure they'd enjoy even if she was asleep." Jackson chuckled. No longer able to remain calm Summer shot

Summer's POV "Leave them out of this." Summer hissed keeping her gaze fixed on her father. "This is between us and neither one have anything to do with this." "Son?" The word could just be heard through the earpiece Summer was wearing. "Did he just say son?" Trying to ignore the chaos that was beginning to break out on the other side of the line Summer watched as Jackson began to move towards her. "But they do." He said now laughing. "Had neither existed then you wouldn't have been disobedient. You would have listened to everything I said and been a good submissive daughter." "I wouldn't have been submissive even if they didn't exist." Summer pointed out in disgust. "People aren't tools you can use as you please." "Oh aren't they?" Jackson countered as he closed the distance between them. "Everyone is a dispensable tool to me." Summer didn't have enough time to react as Jackson produced a taz

"What's the plan dad?" Reggie asked once everyone was settled and ready to listen. "Better be a good one." "I think we should have Summer purposely give herself away." Vincent explained. "ARE YOU INSANE!" Reggie yelled hitting the table. "Are you going insane in your old age?" "Hear him out." Summer murmured piqued by Vincent's suggestion. "What do you have in mind?" "I have some people on the inside that Jackson still isn't aware of." Vincent continued to explain. "They can keep us updated on what is happening with Summer and help us get on the inside." "But what if he hurts her?" Asher demanded taking Reggie's side on thinking the old mans plan wasn't the best. "Could you let him finish please." Summer snapped shutting up the two men. "Vincent please continue." "As I was saying," Vince grumbled, "we can let her get on the inside...." "DAD!" Reggie bellowed cutting the man off again.
The Dark soul Chapter 45: The plan
Summer waited until Asher was fully asleep before she snuck out of the room and headed towards the common room of the Wilson's hideout to find the twins and their father still awake and deep in discussion. From the looks on their faces, it was clear that whatever they were talking about was pretty serious.Noticing Summer's presence they lifted their heads and fixed their eyes on her as she made her way towards them."What's up?" Summer asked as she reached. "I didn't mean to disrupt you.""It's no big deal." Reggie quickly said. "This involves you too anyway.""Oh yeah?" Summer asked sitting down beside Vincent. "What's going on?""Your father called." Vincent said slowly weighing Summer's reaction to this news. "He wants to have a meeting with you.""With me?" Summer repeated. "Did he say when?""Tomorrow." Reggie respoded as his face darkened. "You can't possibly be planning on going."

"You've grown some balls Summer." Allen whistled after Summer finished telling her story.During her tale Asher had managed to get an arm around her pulling her to sit on the bed beside him. Even after she had obliged he hadn't removed the arm, making it clear he was showing her emotional support. Summer appreciated the notion, but the looks she was recieving from everyone in the room due to it was a little much for her."It was a long time comin' if you think about it." Reggie pointed out in Summer's defense. "Should she just has stuck around with Michael all her life?"At the mention of Michael's name Asher's arm tightened around Summer's waist a movement that went unnoticed to everyone except Summer."I think she should have gone about this smarter." Allen countered shooting Reggie a look. "To do it this way, this was just asking to die.""She was almost killed before this!" Asher who had remained quiet until now snapped.

"Are you sure it is safe to move him?" Summer asked as Reggie and Taylor began lifting Asher off of his hospital bed. Wincing Asher tried to feign being okay, but by the look of pain on his face it was easy to tell that he was hurting. Summer couldn't help but blame herself as she watched, she was sure the exertion from earlier hadn't helped matters, even if he seemed fine during, it didn't mean that he actually was. "Stop being a worried mother." Reggie chuckled as he and Taylor began to move towards the exit. "Your man's going to be just fine." "He isn't...." Summer began only to stop mid sentence with a look from Asher. With everything that had been going on Summer wasn't entirely sure what they were. They hadn't set any particular label and they hadn't even really discussed anything. To her they were just two people who were sleeping together, but she didn't know what Asher thought. Shaking his head Reggie let out a
The Dark soul Chapter 42: Next move
The sun had fully gone down by the time Summer rolled away from Asher gasping for breath. For a man who had been severely beaten and had even had surgery he was still so full of energy. Despite Summer attempting to stop him and insisting he needed rest he just couldn't be satiated."Are you okay?" Asher asked turning his head to look at Summer. "Was that too much?""I should be asking you that." Summer countered still trying to catch her breath. "You're a patient after all.""Minor wounds." Asher insisted reaching towards Summer again."No more." Summer said sternly swatting Asher's hand away. "You need to focus on recovery.""I think I've shown that I'm just fine." Asher pointed out."Be serious please." Summer insisted sitting up and scooting to the edge of the hospital bed.She wasn't sure how long it would take for the doctor to come back and take a look at Asher, but she didn't want to be caught comp

"Are you done?" Asher asked as Summer's tears finally dried up.Nodding Summer sniffled, "Yeah, sorry about that."Feeling embarassed she tried not to look at Asher. She couldn't believe that she had just spent all that time crying like a baby while the person that should be crying watched."Don't say sorry." Asher muttered as he attempted to smile. "Especially to me.""But..." Summer tried only to be stopped by Asher shaking his head."I told you that you aren't the one to blame for this." He repeated sternly. "You tried to keep me away and I was the stubborn one that refused.""None of this is fair to you." Summer sighed. "I should have never let you get involved.""Too late for that now." Asher pointed out. "And even if we repeated the same situation I would have made the same choices all over again.""Why are you so kind?" Summer asked sitting up to look into Asher's eyes. "I don't
