~Ashton's POV~

When the two lovebirds begin to walk back, Alfie quickly shuts down the computer; we have no idea why they began speaking in German. I'm so glad those two finally fucking got together; Karma deserves someone who loves her as much as Joey does; she's been through so much shit, and I'm so glad Joey has been by her side through it all.She's become even more closed off since Karma revealed that she's The Reaper, but I know she trusts Joey with her life and would do anything for him. Those two have an unbreakable bond, like two peas in a pod. I'm ashamed that I wasn't there for my younger sister more often, and I've promised myself that I'll do better in the future.

Someone sits next to me and places their hand on my shoulder, jolting me out of my trance. I turn to face whoever it is, just to see Arabella.

"Ash, are you all right?" Her gentle voice flows through me as she asks.

"Of course I am," I say. Why wouldn't I be?" I respond quickly.

"You were just staring into space, are you okay?" She asks, concernedly looking at me.

"Yeah, just thinking," I explain to her, she nods her head in understanding.

Arabella, What is there to say about Arabella? God, she makes me feel so warm and safe that I feel compelled to shield her with everything I've got. I despise it when someone who isn't me looks at her. What the fuck am I talking about?

Suddenly, the doors burst open, revealing Karma

She rushes up to Ace and aggressively pulls him out of his seat.

"What do you think you're doing, huh?" She states, way too calmly, holding onto his shirt collar.

Some people rush over to him, ready to assist, but are shot down when Joey gives them stern glances; this should be interesting.

~Karma's POV~

I break through the office door and run towards Valentino, the eldest. I yank him out of his seat and shove him up against the wall, clutching his collar.

"What do you think you're doing, huh?" I ask quietly, in the voice that Joey claims can kill with a single syllable.

"What exactly do you mean?" He asks, struggling to get free from my hands.

"I mean, why the FUCK were you watching us?" I spat, accentuating the word

'fuck'

"I'm not sure what you're talking about." I release him from my grip, he says.

"How about the camera, or the fact that you attempted to listen in on my private conversation?" I question him

"That was a private conversation, you ass," Joey adds.

" Joseph Theodore De Luca! Have you no decency?" Melissa screams

"I'm sorry, mama, but respect is two - way." He informs her.

"Karma-" Alex begins.

"No. You have no say in the matter." I spit in his face. Ace walks away and joins the others.

"Karma, you need to calm down," Adam says gently. I look over to Joey, who is just as angry as I am, if not more so.

"Do you know what?" I ask

"What?" Adam responds

"Go fuck yourselves, we'll be training the new recruits, Ash, Arlo, and the twins, you guys are good, come introduce us." I smirk, walking out of the room behind Joey
