"Get out," I seethe, my blood boiling as I see red. "Come on, Air." his sly grin isn't something that warms my heart or causes me to bend over backward for him.

"No, I said get the hell out of my fucking house!" I grab the closest thing on the counter, which is a hard plastic container box and I toss it at his head with full force.

I watch him dart to the side, the container falls onto the couch, rolling off. "What the hell?" his hand wraps around my throat, pushing me back and I lift my knee, hitting his balls and he crumbles, letting me go.

I grab his nape, putting pressure on it as he groans lowly and I push him towards the door.

"Get the hell out of here!" I shove him out and slam the door shut, locking him out and only when he's out of my apartment, tears start to swell.

Does he really think that little of me?

A loud knock bangs against the wood and I still, waiting for the door to just break down.

"Let me back in," he growls demandingly.

I can't let him in, not again. I thought

    My chest against his, my breathing shallow and his steel blue eyes locked on me is what drives me insane."I don't care," I try to pull away, but there was no use. He is stronger, he's always been stronger."You will lose your job if I report you," he whispers, pulling me closer even though it isn't possible. "Just relax," he breathes, but how could I relax when he lied to get in here with me.I still, rethinking everything I've ever done.Perhaps this wasn't the route I was supposed to go down, but it was the only job I could get."Fine," I stop fighting him, but he doesn't let me go just yet.Blaze stares at me, eyes wide as he reads me, and he finally loosens his grip. "If you want a lap dance, then so be it." I reach for his hood that's behind his head, pulling it up and over his head to cover his face, but he sits up, and I lean back.He takes the hoodie off, and he's shirtless. "What are you doing?" I grit out.My gaze travels down his muscular body, his heat sending shivers dow

    Heavy breathing and sweaty skin makes me feel gross as I wrap the blanket over me. I notice how wild my hair is in the reflection of the window. I run my hands through my loose hair, flattening it before I turn, watching his back flex as he puts on his pants.The muscles in his shoulders flex as he leans forward, reaching for his hoodie and I'm numb with regret.How did I let this happen?The usual discomfort and fear I had lingering inside when he was around isn't there anymore, the tension between us is humbling, like a soft breeze on a hot summer day.I inhale a deep breath before turning as the door unlocks, "I have to go," I murmur and practically run out of there without sparing Blaze a second glance.I scurry out of the room after my boss unlocked it, and the way her eyes light up at the sight of me disgusts me.She knows exactly what happened, and the fact that she's thrilled about it makes me sick.She better not think I'm doing that ever again, because the only reason it hap

    AERILYN'S POV"Admit it," Blaze grins, and my heart beats faster at the sight of it. My eyes narrow on him, I have nothing to admit, nothing."Admit what?" I ask blandly. Blaze can't tell me what to do anymore, I am officially not a pack member anymore, even though I could go back, but I would never do that."Admit that it was a thrill in there," his eyes are blazing with freedom, his sinister smile is infectious, and I fight my own smile trying to drag across my face.It was supposed to be a good night, where the tips would be huge and the night would be fun, and instead, it all came to this. I have never gone a night without making a single cent, and now Blaze is here, screwing with the life I built.I cross my arms, "No," I deadpan, and his smile vanishes.His lips press into a thin line, his eyes narrowed as he tilts his chin down, "Excuse me?" he asks softly."It wasn't a thrill to come back with no money, it wasn't a thrill finding out that it was you, and it wasn't a thrill whe

I want to make sure he's telling the truth.I don't know why he's here, or if he told me the truth, but something is off."Yes," he grins, his eyes lit up and I can't deny that my heart races, nor can I change it. "And then you will leave?" I ask, and his bottom lip curls as he slowly nods, "Say it," I demand, my eyes narrowing on him.His careless snort as he rolls his eyes, "I will leave tomorrow morning."I shudder out a breath of relief, "Well then I guess it's fine," I shrug, even if the uncertainty builds up in my chest, and a heavy

    Her moans echo around the room, her pussy contracting around my dick, and as her orgasm hits her, I let go of my own and cum inside of her.She rolls off me, falling into my arm and I rest my hand on her chest, pulling her closer to me.I glance down at her, admiring how red her cheeks are.Aerilyn is gorgeous, she always has been, even if I didn't let anyone know that was what I thought.She was my best friend's girl, and I secretly admired her all along I guess, but it's fun to torture her, to have her snap at me and call me names.It was thrilling to have her attention, even if it wasn't the good kind."There," Air breathes out, her soft voice making my chest tighten, "There what?" I turn onto my side, facing her and she does the same, her arms curling in front of her chest. "We're done," she murmurs, her eyes shining. I snort, "We're not done, the night is still young." I grin, my hand sliding down her waist to her thigh.I pull her leg up over my hip, yanking her closer. Her lips

    My body feels heavy, and sore, like I've been trampled. I turn on the shower, and head over to the sink to brush my teeth as the water heats up.My muscles are aching, and my head weighs a ton, but perhaps the hot shower will make it all go away.I reach for my toothbrush, staring at my reflection when I notice bruising by my neck. I brush my hair over my shoulder, tilting my head and I go paler than I already am.My fingers trail the mark in the crook of my neck, and tingles erupt through me like lightning, "No," the word slips from my mouth raspy, and my throat dries up.I drag my fingers over it, hoping it would rub off and it's some sort of joke, but my nails slips over the fresh wound and it stings."No, no, no!" I grab the edges of the sink, holding onto it like it could turn back the time.I look at the door, my chest rising and falling fast and I push myself away from the sink and pull open the door with force, "Blaze!" I yell, storming out of the bedroom, only to find him sta

    AERILYN'S POVBlaze is visibly upset, and it's baffling to see him like this, because I've known him as a nonchalant person, the one who never gave a shit about anything, and here he sits, face in his eyes, rocking back and forth like his life just blew up, and it's terrifying to know he's scared, because I am too."Blaze," I breathe out his name, my voice shaky as I try to wrap my mind around what just happened."Don't," he sighs, dropping his hands, and his arms are stretched over his hiked up knees."What are we going to do?" | ask desperately.I'm expecting him to blame me, but his tired gaze travels over to me, and once our eyes lock, it's like my breath is taken away.I can sense my feelingsstirring for him, I can feel howI want to wander towards him,but I dig my fingers into mypalms, forcing myself to focuson staying where I am.This bond can't ruin me.

    A blissful second has been ruined by his request, "Excuse me?" I ask baffled, not knowing if I heard him right.It could be my own spiraling mind playing tricks on me, even if I doubt it is, but it is a possibility. Blaze sighs, "Come home with me," the confusion and anger is replaced with fear. I step back, putting distance between us, "Are you insane?" I frown. "Have you forgotten why I left in the first place?" I yell."Air,", "Aerilyn," I snap,correcting him. I don't want him giving me a nickname, I don't want him dragging me home because he made a big mistake."Come on," he inches closer, but for every step he takes towards me, I take two steps back."No," I grit out. "I can protect you," his head leans forward, his gorgeous bright eyes pleading with me, but there is no way in hell that I will ever go back there.A wave of nausea hits me, hard.

I ask blandly, and his eyes widen, offense written all over his face."I told my parents I'd meet them there...", "Then take your own car, I have errands to run." I deadpan and his eyes narrow as his brows furrow together."Alright," he takes a few steps back, then he smiles, "See you there," he waves goodbye and leaves.I can't let him drive with me, because I have somewhere else to be first.Driving into the city was peaceful until all the traffic started and my blood started to boil.I'm going to be late if I stop at her house first..."Shit," I curse and change direction.

    Walking into the office, I can feel everyone's eyes on me, especially Julie's. She's in love with Ryan, and everyone can see it except for Ryan.He's a sweet man, but he's so oblivious to her affection. She brings him coffee every morning, and not the cheap kind, and I know she's been the one staring daggers at the back of me."Good morning," Ryan slides in beside me, and I ignore the rest as we head to a meeting in the conference room."Hi, Ryan," I beam as he snakes his arm around my back, squeezing me closer to him in a tight hug."Are you ready for it?" he grins, looking nervous and excited at the same time.I didn't plan on coming in this early, but when he called me this morning and told me there was a meeting, I quickly got ready and came in."I don't know what it is," I roll my eyes playfully, and his knowing grin intrigues me.Is he planning something?"Do you?"

    Guilt is what I feel as I finish myself off while sitting across the road from her house, her silhouette was my show and I could see her from afar for once, I could see the waviness of her hair and the shape of her body.Every fibre of my being wants to ring that bell on the gate, but she doesn't want anything to do with me, and she made that very clear.I wish that I could buy her a gift and spoil her, because today she had a milestone, which I'm very proud of, but there's a bigger piece of me wishing that she wasn't so successful.I have waisted hours and large amounts of money getting rid of her face in public photos and videos too, and it's hard work when she's just becoming more famous.I had to buy pictures worth thousands of dollars just to stop the paparazzi from taking the photos they took of her to the news.I have a special detective on her every single day, watching her for her safety, but sometimes it still doesn't feel enough and that's why I drive out here every single

    "Congratulations Aerilyn!"Everyone screams as I stride into the office, and Ryan hands me some flowers and a little jewellery box.I just won yet another case, and it was my two-thousand- case milestone.Overwhelmed by everyone's happiness for me, tears swell. I haven't changed the world, and I'm not even close, but I have changed the world for some people.This morning's case was especially close to home, so I fought for that woman with every ounce of energy I had.Ryan rests his hand on my shoulder, squeezing it as he stares at me with amazement in his eyes, and I recognize that look."Can I go home? It's been a long morning," I sigh, and Ryan looks slightly disappointed, but agrees, "You deserve it," and he's right. I do deserve it, because I have worked on that case for months."I'll see you tomorrow," I smile as I turn to leave.I feel terrible that I didn't stay for the cake I noticed, but I don't want Ryan to think that I'm romantically interested in him like he is in me.I fe

Isn't this your car?" | ask baffled.Ryan always came to school in this car, it dropped him off and picked him up."No, this is my dad's." he clarifies, and it's baffling that they have the same vehicle."Why are we in your dad's limo?"

    -- Years of chasing men away, scaring them that they abandon Aerilyn has been a hoot, but what amused me the most was when I had her parents locked up, for good. It took a few months of spying, getting to know their routine and hidden cameras all over the pack to catch them, and a few other's. I locked up the drug dealer first, and then they followed him right to the cells along with their addict friends. The look on their faces was priceless, and even though they pleaded for me not to do it, I felt no remorse, because all I saw was Aerilyn on the floor, her tear-stained cheeks and ceramic pieces stuck in her hair and the cuts. All the people who were under the influence fell after, but they were my priority, because it was personal. After all the over looking on people who were struggling, I've begun to notice what Aerilyn has been talking about, and there wasn't much I could do at first, but after a night out following her to a busy restaurant, I've realized that the pack need

    "Stop breaking things!" I yell as he strides up and down, heaving while doing so.Blaze freezes, turning to look at me with a cold gaze, "You are the one who's making things difficult," he spits and my jaw drops, "Excuse me?" I glare at him.He snorts, rolling his eyes as he turns his head, "You heard me," he sneers, his teeth grinding against each other as he tries not to yell at me.My fingers dig into the cushions below me as anger pulses through my veins, "I am not the one making things difficult, you did that!" I point at him, "You are the one who was stupid enough to mark me!", "I'm not stupid!" he whips around, glaring at me, his eyes dark and filled with hatred. "You did a stupid thing! That makes you stupid!" I wish I could use his rolling eyeball as a bowling ball because then I'd have a full strike,"Stop telling me I am stupid!" he growls, his deep demand doesn't affect me."But you are, and you're even more stupid if you think I will go back to that hell hole!","It's not
