"Stay within your limits"He said frigidly,the car pulled over in front of the mansion, Isabelle step out giggling,though her memories of the house wasn't nice but she'll never forget the sunflowers. She gaze at the mansion covered by the sunflowers and orchids,Xander lips curve he turn to Jan "Is she beautiful?" The guard choked on nothing. "Sir ma'am is..." "Stop ogling, I'll cut your head off the next time I catch you staring"He threatened. " Okay sir"Jan intimidated with the threat he slowly retract his gaze. Xander glance at Isabelle,the feeling of distaste and abhor for her make him scoff,he sighted his grandparents and roll his eyes "Why do you hate me so much?" Her question thaw his heart " Why?"He ask himself,she left! that's not enough reason to want to torture her "Then why?" The butler swung the door open engulfing Isabelle in a bear hug,Xander fake a smile "You're here,how nice of you to bring her early Xander"Isab
"Xander do you know what the problem is? You're grieving but your own way to sort things out is through violence,Debra died,yes it was a murder but that doesn't mean you hurt everyone who loves you"Xander swallow the bile in his throat. "We loved her we all did and still do,but we do not hate because we love her,Debra had told you to protect the Collins and you ruined one life,I hope you're happy now"Grandpa Mack angrily left the room. "Douglas" Grandma mack called after him,she sigh touching Xander shoulder. "I'll cancel the party" "It'll happen" Xander walk away. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Taking a step out of the office Sasha eyes dim,she groan taking another step but she fell to the ground,she took out her phone to call Micah,he answered in one ring. "Are you far from the boutique?" She ask her head heavy all of a sudden. "I'm with your dad,Sasha are you okay?" " I'm not Micah,I can't move" She grunt.
"I've never seen it,Mr Mack you dyed your hair,wow you're so fake"She blurted and gulp " I meant your hair is so nice... the real one"Xander avert his gaze from her face down to her body. "Who gave you this dress?" He ask throatily,taking steps towards her,he scowl despite his growing desire to kiss her "I didn't send this" "Whoever sent this as a good taste,I love it" He stop in front of her,taking a long hard look at her compact and smooth and yet feminine skin against the dress,he trace her exposed curves with his lustful gaze,wishing he could tear the whole silk dress off her. Her fragrance hit his nose again he noted to himself, she'd changed,humans change, she'd always used rose oil,a fan of civet and now it's lavender. "Mr Mack I can't breath" She said huskily. " Try to"he nuzzle her ear with his nose. "I've to get going" Isabelle place he hand on his chest,he smirk "Besides there are no guest here" "Isabe
The party has started for her as great with everyone congratulating and taking pictures with them but it started to get suffocating when her big head friend said 'wouldn't it be perfect if the couple sang and kissed',Isabelle could swear she stopped breathing. She continuously gulp shaking her head for xander to refuse but she forgot Gary is not only the big head guy,xander gladly stood up and swept her off her feet. "I don't know how to dance"Isabelle squeeze her face,dragging herself back to the present. "You're not experienced in kissing but you did well minutes ago" "Kissing is different,dancing is an art"Isabelle face the crowd with fake smile,they settled in their respective seats their face gleaming with anticipation. "Kissing is an art too,it's not simple to plunge your mouth into someone else mouth and..."he pause taking a deep breath,he open his mouth to continue. "I get the lecture, thank you"Isabelle intrude,the mus
"Your new bedmate?oops you're married" "Mind your business chief"Isabelle snap,a growl erupt from his throat. "How strong is he?"Isabelle turn, icy clutch of dread gripping her. "Gary is not strong"she reply promptly. "Oh"the masked man frown and in the blink of an eye he rush to Gary. "NOOOOOOO"Isabelle scream. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Micah sigh as he watch doctor widera explain the cause of the doctor found in sasha ward death,he take his gaze away from the body and fix it on the files on the desk. "How many minutes apart?"He ask. "Five,but with the janitor dead body on the last floor I doubt if it wasn't calculated,the killer knew she was assigned to this floor and got the information from her" "Five people died today and it's all too much to think about,can we talk about this some other time?"Micah utter,the doctor nod portraying a bitter smile. "I'm so sorry"Micah fight back his tears. "
"Just say you don't want to be like a real waiter"Isabelle dust her palm,Xander fold his arms "What?" "I just want to keep staring at you" "You don't mean it...I can't blush"Isabelle shrug going back to sit on the table,Xander shoulder drop "If you can't make it, I'm okay" "Nope it's fine,stop making me feel like a weakling"Xander give Isabelle a glass cup with wine. "How's jamie doing?after all the police interference and all...She must be feeling bad" "She's not but I wonder why you lied to me,I could've died" "Why?" "Because she's the only one that will always be with me,she's the only one who understands"Isabelle took a sip. "And me?" "You are...You're different in your own way,you trust me and you don't then you do again and don't the next day,you're the most frustrating man I've ever met"Xander grin. "Was I supposed to blush?" "It's not a compliment" "I'm blushing"Xander whisper,she turn
"What?you act like you're serious and dump them later on" "No,that was just an advice,I do girls but not in your way"The masked man stand up and stride to the window. "Ever been to a girl's burial? it's shitty" Frown elicit from the masked man face. "No, been to one?" He straighten his grey suit and loosen the cuffs. "Yes,it was a long time ago.... ma'am Debra died" Gary notice the change in atmosphere but wave it off as nothing and only fix his eyes on the man. "Oh I'm so sorry,how did she die?" " Um... it was a premeditated murder,her car was wrecked...I mean wrecked to tidbits"Gary sigh recalling the event "She saved Isabelle life" "Isabelle?"

"Was Isabelle in the car when the accident happened?"The masked man turn to him,Gary frown from the sudden thrust of question. "Y

"No"The masked man scowl
