Ashtons POVTo say I was furious was an understatement, after risking my men and even my own life to save hers that was the thanks I get? What an ungrateful little brat.I threw the nearest lamp at the wall feeling the anger slightly ebb away as the ceramic shattered against the wall in a million tiny pieces. I tossed a few other miscellaneous items around as I seethed in anger. My mind dipping into the dark cesspool of my inner thoughts.How dare she get angry with me! God only knows the price on her head now and she has the audacity to blame me, i was doing her a favour. She should be thanking me for saving her sorry ass but instead I'm getting a temper tantrum from her. Payton couldn't possibly understand the dangers she would now face because of that night. She would be hunted until someone finally tracked her down and killed her. She thought i was keeping her captive when i was only trying to do whats right and keep her alive. Its what her father would have wanted. Either way t

Payton POV I walked towards the door at the end of the hall just as Matthew had instructed. I was still upset about the whole ordeal, but Matthew's appellation had calmed me down enough to think clearly. If there was more to the story then Ashton was telling me, I was going to find out soon enough. Just as I raised a fist to knock, shattering glass crashed from behind the door. Huffing I rapped my bruised knuckles on the wooden surface making the person throwing a temper tantrum inside the room stop in his tracks. "Go away" he snapped worming a smug smile onto my face. I batted my eyes and peered around the corner of the door innocently, looking around the room for Ashtons latest victim. "Jeesh what did the lamp do to you?" I snickered. "Payton. Not. Now" Ashton glared at me, clearly annoyed at my unwelcome intrusion. I hesitated for a minute, deciding whether I should talk to him about this later when he's cooled off a bit or just spit it out now and face his wrath. Deciding

PAYTONS POV "Well what do we do now?" I asked. I could tell by the pensive look on Ashtons face he was conflicted by something. "We are doing nothing, your staying put until this all blows over.. meanwhile I'm going to start by getting myself a drink" he groans. "What Ashton! No way!" I began to protest before he cut me off. "your staying here from now on, until i go talk to my old man and we form a plan to get the HD6 out of town" I felt my stomach sink. "Cant i stay home? I don't need babysitters Ashton" "No, we will go to your place and collect your things and that's final" he snapped before leaving the room irritated and calling out for Matthew. I sunk into the chair. I hated this, I never asked for Ashton to swoop in like some knight in shining armor, I never asked to be sucked into some twisted life where instead of my father being the victim of a random killing, that he perhaps did something to deserve that fate.. how many people did he kill? Or families he tore apa

Ashtons POVI stormed out of the room angrily, leaving Payton to her own devices. I shouldn't worry about some ungrateful princess but the position she put myself and my men in is not a good one. We need her to be complacent and on our side more then ever now."Matthew!" I yelled out wondering where that idiot went and hid. "Yea boss?" His familiar voice called out from the kitchen, He was probably stashing away his coco puffs from Payton."Pour me a damn drink" "You got it boss" he smirked at me before sliding the bottle of cognac over to me. After a moment of silence Matthew glanced over at me "Soo.. how'd it go?""Matthew if you ever do something like that again, i"ll hang you" i muttered darkly before taking a long swig and reiterating the eye opening conversation i had with Payton moments ago............................."Honestly dude, it sounds like you're actually starting to care for the girl" Matthew teased, he's been my best friend since we were children, he knew all a

Paytons pov I woke up the following morning with a pounding head ache, although it was self-inflicted I couldn't help but pity myself. Stretching and rolling over, i sighed with resignation. Im never drinking again. "Oh good your up" Ashtons snipped as he stomped into the room looking quite dishevelled. "Mmmmmm" i groaned, sitting up lazily to rub the sleep from my eyes. "Hurry up and get ready we are going to get your things" He ordered again with an impatient tone to his voice. "Jeeze Someone must of woke up on the wrong side of the bed." Stumbling my way to the bathroom, i brushed my teeth and did my usual morning routine, Noting my clothes from yesterday were now cleaned and folded on top of the bathroom counter. Smiling gratefully i tore off the over sized t- shirt and put my clothes from yesterday back on, excitement fluttering in my stomach at the final relief of going home- even if it was only for a short while. Bounding down the hall into the living area, i had t

(Ashtons pov)I stumbled into the apartment the next morning still buzzing from my nightly high.After the shit Payton tried pulling, I needed to get away for the night and find some other escapade to keep me company.Since the private elevator was designed to pull up right into my apartment, I waited for a second after the metal doors slid shut behind me, then trailed upstairs to my bedroom. Slamming the bedroom door open, my eyes widened in surprise at Payton's lilt body snuggled under the comforter. She looked natural just laying there, the soft plains of her face relaxed as she slept. Payton stirred a little and stretched before rolling over and kicking off the covers to reveal the t shirt I had given her ridden up almost revealing her ass.This girl was seriously testing my will power.Groaning with frustration, I turned into the closet finding a change of clothes."oh, good your awake, hurry up and get ready we are going to get your things" I snapped at her when I retreated fro

Ashtons POVWe cleaned in silence, allowing Payton some space to collect herself. My eyes kept wandering to the random photos scattered of Payton and her dad. How could we know this man for years and never know he had a daughter this whole time?I took to putting the shelves back in their upright position and threw some miscellaneous trash into the large garbage bag we had set out."Hey Payton is there anything they could of been looking for specifically?" I questioned, as i pulled the couch back over onto its legs and the recliners back into their upright position.I want to know why they thought destroying her home would of been a good idea."Not that I can think of" she mumbled, pulling the dustpan out of a closet and began sweeping up the broken glass littering the floor.We tidied the rest of the main floor in silence. I knew her mind was somewhere far away as i watch her face contort with anger and resentment then sadness and resign."You look a lot like your dad you know" i

(Ashtons pov)After finding the pictures hidden in the drawer, and finding nothing in the dresser or en suite I scavenged the closet. So far, I hadn't noticed anything out of the ordinary apart from a few questionably funky dress shirts some worn loafers and a pair of edible underwear pushed to the back of the drawers.I moved around and investigated a few boxes on the top shelf of the closet and checked all the jacket pockets and soles of his shoes but nothing i found was of was of any use to us.We were so close! Were would James hide something he didn't want to be found?Frustrated i sat down at the edge of the bed, my mind wandering to the photo of James and Aiden's mom. They looked like long lost friends or lovers.Did they date previously or was there something more between the two of them? Rubbing my eyes in frustration I let out huff, letting my eyes wander my gaze settled at the custom Harley David mirror hanging across the room from me. The sun shone off of it but didn't
