I woke up to someone shaking me. "Kiara, shhh, Kiara your mom's calling!" said a voice. I opened my eyes and attempted to move but my bottom half was trapped. I looked down to see Asher still laying on me. I looked up to see Christian holding my phone.

I grabbed it from his hand and answered it. "Yes, Mom?" I asked rubbing my eyes. "Honey, where are you? Are you still at their house?" she asked worry had laced her voice. "Yes Mom, after we baked we were so tired that I fell asleep on the sofa," I lied through my teeth. I felt really bad. This wasn't me but I had no other option. I, myself had no answers to why and how he was like this.

"Honey, it's raining like cats and dogs outside thundering even," Mom said. I looked out the window and she was so right! How did I sleep through this? I mean Asher is on medication the doctors gave him an injection. But I was a light sleeper. "Ohh You want me to come home immediately?" I asked. "Don't be stupid Kiara it's hazardous to drive in this weather! Can you stay there for a night? I would like to talk to his mom!" she said.

"His mom?" I asked panicked. I looked at Christian for help but even his eyes widened. "Umm, can I like... call you back? I have to pee and then I will ask his mom to talk to you?" I said but it sounded more like a question. "Impossible! Go!" she said before hanging up.

KY - Mom doesn't know that there are only three boys and you, right? 😂😂

I rolled my eyes.

Me - Tell her anything and I will tell Mom about you failing the test in class!

KY - Bully!

"Do you have someone who can help?!" I asked. "Yeah! Our caretaker! Come let's go!" He rushed out of the room. And twenty seconds later he came back. "Yeah.. right. We need to take this gorilla off you!" he said. "Yeah!" I said.

We both got Asher safely onto the bed. I placed the covers on him and switched out the remaining lights before walking out. We both rushed downstairs and saw a woman cooking something in front of the stove. "Mrs Becker we need your help!" Christian said. The woman turned around and I got a full look at her face.

She looked like she was in her forties. She had black hair with grey strands here and there. She was shorter than me! She was wearing a skirt and shirt which were covered by the apron. "Christian I will not help you hide from the police again!" she snapped. Did I turn to Christian WHAT? "No Mrs Becker that's not what I want this time maybe later but not now! Now I want you to pretend to be my mom and tell Her mom that it is safe to stay for the night here since there is a storm outside!" Christian said.

I lost track of the conversation. The lady looked at me and she pulled me in a hug. "Oh My Gosh! Blake was telling me a few minutes ago how you helped save Asher's life! Thank you so much Honey!" she said squeezing the life out of me.

"You're welcome!" I replied. She finally let go of me. "So would you talk to my mom?" I asked. She nodded. I happily dialed my mom's number and put it on speaker.

"Hey, Mom! You are on speakerphone! Here this is Mrs. Becker," I said. "But I thought Christian had a different surname," Mom said.

"Hi Mrs Wilder, Actually I am like their aunt. So Asher's, Blake's and Christian's parents live abroad. And then can't come here. I have been working with Christian's family for twenty years and so they trust me to look after their kids. Don't worry about Kiara I will take care of her and make sure she is comfortable!" she said. Phew. So we weren't lying!

"Oh, Thank God! It's good to hear that! Thank you so much, Mrs Becker! Kiara honey I will send Kyle to pick you up tomorrow Okay?" Mom said. "Yes, Mom! Bye! Love you!" I said. She said it back and we ended the conversation.

"Thank you so much!" I and Christian said. She smiled. "Don't worry honey! Now could you bring this soup to Asher?" she asked. I nodded and took the bowl from her. "Once you are done come down for dinner!" She said as I walked up the stairs. "I have some things to take care of I will see you at Dinner," Christian said as we parted ways at the top of the stairs.

I couldn't help but admire their home! It was so immaculate! Wow! I mean their living room and kitchen were filled with marble tiles. not only that every corridor was! They had chandeliers in the hallways! Their lights weren't white but yellow like in royal places! Whoever built this was beyond smart!

I slowly opened the door to see Asher still sleeping. I kept the soup on the side desk and walked towards him. I crouched down and whispered. "Asher?..." I said trying to wake him up. "Asher!" I said a little louder. He moved and faced the other side. Frustrated I got up and bent over trying to move him, "Ashe-Ah!" Before I could complete I was pulled over him and in a second we were flipped with me on the bed and Asher hovering over me just a few centimetres apart.

"You were awake!" I blamed him. "No, Angel I woke up when the first time you sweetly whispered my name," he said smirking. I blushed when he continued, "But I wanted to hear you screaming it!" "Get off me, you idiot!" I said punching him. He groaned and fell beside me. My eyes widened in horror.

"Oh My Gosh! I am so sorry! Are you okay?" I asked getting up and helping him sit up his back resting on the headboard. "Yeah, I am fu*king fine!" he muttered angrily. And the Asher we know is back. There was a loud thundering sound and I whimpered covering my ears with my hands and closing my eyes tightly.

I hated the rain! No not the small drizzles but the long, dark, thundering rains. They brought back memories that I never wanted to remember, they brought back images that I wish I could forget and they reminded me of the person I wish was DEAD.

That's why Mom was worried about getting out in the rain. My arm brought me closer to some warmth and I slowly opened my eyes as if I would see him in front of me again. "Shh, It's just me, It's Ash. Nobody is here. You are fine Angel," said a very small and fragile voice. I fully opened my eyes to see Asher staring down at me with worry.

His eyes instantly changed from soft ones to cruel ones as anger took over me. There was another thunder and looking at Asher's angry eyes. I let out a small scream before breaking away from him and sinking into the bed. I closed my eyes tightly and brought my knees to my chest.

"Please don't hurt me! Please... Please don't hurt me! I am sorry!" I said whimpering and crying. Pleading for the person to leave. This can't be happening again. The images of that night started coming back to me. And I started screaming.

The way his hands touched me. His cruel crooked smile with the huge scar on his face. "No! No! I promise please don't touch me!" I shouted.

"TURN ON THE FU*KING LIGHTS!" I heard a voice.

I started shaking uncontrollably. I need my inhaler! My breathing became ragged. As tears flowed down my cheek. A hand grabbed mine and I started screaming. "LEAVE ME ALONE! PLEASE!" tears are streaming down my cheek. I had no power to open my eyes and see those people again.

"DON'T FU*KING TOUCH HER!" I heard the same voice again. "Kiara, can you hear me?" I heard a whisper close to me. But all I could think about was that night in the alley and that man and his gang! "Kiara, listen to me I know you can do this! Please try to listen to my voice!" he said. I started to try and walk towards the voice as I extended my arm while my eyes were still closed.

A hand gently grabbed mine. "Try to breathe Angel. Deep Breaths remember?" he said. I focused on trying to slowly inhale but I couldn't I needed my inhaler! I frantically moved my other hand when it was caught and I was pulled into a warm chest. "Shh...Shhh.." he whispered. I could hear a faint yet loud heartbeat. I started to sink my heart and breath with his.

"Very Good Angel, now you have to stop crying, Nobody is going to hurt you here. Please open your eyes look no one is here," he whispered. But I didn't want to. "Kiara," he said so slowly that even I couldn't hear it.

I slowly opened my eyes to look up and saw Asher holding me in his arms as I sat in his lap. I frantically looked around for the man and his gang but no one was there. It was just Blake and Christian and another girl standing there with worry on their faces. I wiped my eyes feeling embarrassed that I created such a huge drama.

I slowly tried to move out of his arms. But he stopped me. "Where is your fu*king Inhaler?" he barked. I sunk away from him at his voice. Was he the one whispering earlier? He sighed. "Where is your inhaler Kiara?" he asked. I looked down at my hands. "I forgot it at home," I whispered. "You fu*king what?" he shouted again.

"Oh come on give her some space! She is scared for Fu*ks' sake!" The girl said snapping. Asher finally let go of me and I sat back down on the bed playing with my hands. "How did you forget it?" Blake asked worriedly.

"I just walked downstairs and Christian said Asher was in a very bad condition so I rushed without getting anything but my phone," I explained softly. "It's okay, are you feeling better?" Christian asked and I nodded. "Hi I am Lilia!" the girl said. I smiled at her. "I am Kiara, It's so nice to meet you!" I replied.

"Well thank God! I am so tired of living with these guys! I am done with school and I can't go out often so I am stuck in here! I am so glad I can finally meet someone!" she squealed. "The pleasure is all mine," I said in a charming British accent. "Oh My Gosh! I love you already!" she said as she offered me her hand which I gladly took.

"So let me show you my room and you can have something comfortable to sleep in. I am pretty sure you don't want to sleep in that," she said motioning to my skinny jeans. I laughed nodding. "Later skaters!" She said as she grabbed my hand. I stopped her for a moment.

"Don't you dare leave the bed!" I warned Asher. "I don't take fu*king orders from you!" he shouted. I just ignored him. "Blake, Christian please make sure he is not moving around too much his wound might bleed out again," I told them. Blake saluted me before I walked out with Lilia.

Now that we were outside the highly light hallway gave me a clear view of her. She had beautiful blonde hair that went just below her back. She had waved them in style. She was wearing blue jeans shorts and a baby pink shirt. Her legs were long and tanned and her body was in perfect shape. In one word - HOT!

"You have a beautiful name," I said. "Why thank you! You are the first person to ever say that!" she said smiling as her eyes shined. We reached the end of the hallway and she opened the door as I walked into a room that was lavender in color. "Oh My Gosh, it's beautiful!" I expressed as I looked around.

Its structure was kind of like mine but there was no desk just an oversized vanity and her closet was as huge as mine. "You like it?" she asked. "Wow, I love it!" I replied. We both sat down on the bed. "So I heard you befriend these horrifying beings in school," she said. I laughed at their names. "Yeah kind of," I said trailing off. "So you know them for a long time?" I asked. "Yeah kind of," she replied. We both laughed.

"We are actually childhood friends and we work together...." she said trailing off. "Ahh, the secret business?" I asked and she nodded. "So I met the redhead," she said a bit on the edge. "You mean Allisa?" I asked. She nodded curtly. "Not used to your best friend having girlfriends?" I asked. She nodded. "I mean they just sleep with girls and throw them away like tissues. It's kind of what we do," she said. I looked at her. "We?" I asked.

"Yeah guess I couldn't get a boyfriend because of the work that I do so I sleep with people when I find them attractive," she shrugged. Wow, she was bold and I respected that cause I could never do that. I was like a pure soul. Angel.

I shook my head. "Wow I wish I was as bold as you," I said. "You wish you weren't," said a very angry voice coming into the room. "Get the fu*k out, Blake. You aren't allowed in my room!" she shouted at him throwing a pillow in the process which he easily dodged.

"A bullet couldn't stop me you think your pillow would?" he asked sneering at her. "What the fu*k do you want?" she asked angrily. Oh, God. "Don't influence Kiara to be a sl*t like you. She is a nice girl let her be," he snapped at her. "I am a sl*t? You are manwh*re! You are so disgusting! I told you to stay away from me!" she stood up. I looked at them.

"How many times do I have to tell you this is my house I will walk in whenever the fu*k I want!" he shouted back at her. "This is also my house and more importantly this is my fu*king room!" she shouted. The door burst open and Christian walked in.

"What the hell is wrong with you guys? What will Kiara think you guys are animals!" he said they both shut up but still glared at each other.

"Okay..." I said trailing off. "Blake she is such a sweetheart why are shouting like that?" I asked. His eyes widened. "You met her just five minutes ago!" he said in disbelief. Lilia just smirked. "It takes a second to fall in love don't you think 5 minutes are more than enough to understand a person's personality?" I asked. He just rolled his eyes.

"You can't win an argument against fu*king girls," He said before glaring at Lilia and then leaving. "He came here to tell you to get changed and Asher's calling you," Christian said before leaving. I looked back at Lilia to find her staring at the place where Blake stood.

"So when are you telling him?" I asked. "What?" she asked coming out of the trance. "That you like him!" I said. "Ohh, Never. Cause it's very complicated. The work I do is very degrading and he hates that I have to do that. But I am not ashamed of what I do. So if he wants to fight with me then fine. But he also sleeps with a lot of people. I couldn't take it and I do kiss people but I have never slept with someone," she whispered.

I hugged her. "It's okay," I told her. She hugged me tightly. She needed this. And I am pretty sure the boys would never listen to her. A few minutes later the door burst open and we pulled away. "Ahh, the Famous Hug!" said a deep voice that wasn't supposed to be there. "I told you to stay in bed!" I snapped at him. "And I told you I don't take fu*king orders from you!" he snapped back. Lilia just chuckled. "What the fu*k are you laughing at!" he snapped at her.

"Sorry bo- I mean Asher," she said looking down. So even she worked for him?! What the heck! "Give her some clothes you have 1 minute!" he snapped at us. Lilia dragged me to her closet and wow it was well arranged just like mine. "Here are the comfortable clothes. They might be a little loose since I like being comfy as long as I can," she said but the last part was so soft If I was even five inches away I couldn't have heard.

I picked up grey sweatpants. "I think this will be enough the shirt is fine," I said to Lilia. She gave me a thumbs-up as I rushed to the bathroom changing into the sweatpants and walked out. Asher stood outside taking the support of the wall as he scrolled through something. As if he felt my presence he looked up and gave me a once-over.

"I'll show you to the guest room," he said and I followed him. "You know you should be resting right?" I asked. "I should be fu*king mad at you for allowing the doctor to give me the sleeping medicine. YOU FU*KING DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING! I need to stay on high alert all the fu*king time!" he snapped at me. What was his problem?!

"OH! I AM SORRY THAT I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR WELL-BEING! From next time I will keep in mind that I will let you die!" I shouted back. He just growled at me ignoring me further. We reached a door and we stopped. "You can have this for the night. My room is next door and Christian and Blake are right in the opposite hallway," he said and started to leave.

I looked around. His house was so huge it was so confusing to keep track of anything! I looked at Asher as he opened his room door, got in, and closed it with a bang. I flinched at that and slowly opened the room. It was like I was in a hotel room.

It was a huge room almost the same size as mine! I walked in further. There was a tv on the wall and the bed opposite it. The window had a view of the front porch and the fountain. It was painted white and it had a couch on one side. I walked in and opened the other door to find a beautiful bathroom and a closet attached to it. Wow, he had used a lot of money.

I flopped down on the bed as I looked out of the window. It was raining heavily and the darkness had consumed the sky. I pulled the sheets over me as I stared at the ceiling the sounds of raindrops falling on the window sill. My eyes started to droop and I closed them fully having no more energy to deal with anything.
