❝if you were to describe yourself in one word, what would it be?❞
five years ago she was a quiet, insecure girl. however, five years later she is confident, fierce, and had a multi-billionaire company under her name. they say time...
I woke up, feeling my body was still slightly sore. Moana and Berry were nowhere to be seen, telling me they probably went downstairs already. I checked the clock to see it was still early in the morning. I got out of bed, heading into my bathroom. I took care of my wounds after muttering a quick, "I miss you, Chase." while looking at his note.
Once I was done, I hopped into the shower wanting to get their handprint off my body again. I still felt disgusting as I left my shower but I just carried on. This was normal for me to feel this way as I have been through these situations quite a few times.
I put on a black sports bra pairing it with black joggers that had hooks that I can hook my weapons too. I put on white shoes before picking out my own leather jacket. I couldn't use Chase's as he would know that I'm wearing the jacket. However, I took his gun out of his leather jacket and refilled the bullets into the barrel before placing it in my joggers.

I did light makeup as I would have a mask over my face. I put in green color contacts and braided my hair before pulling it into a tight slick back bun. I went to my locker and pulled out my knives, teaser, paper spray, metal sticks, and my other gun. I put on my leather jacket and a trench coat.
I picked up a hat before leaving my bathroom and going downstairs. I hydrated myself and ate some apple slices. I opened the window curtains so the cats can sunbathe and replaced their water. I put their cat food in their bowls and called my guard to set up the cat tree. Some might say this was looking less like a penthouse more like a cat house but I was okay with that fact.
I snatched a box of chocolate from the vault before going into the elevator. Xavier had already arranged a car for me. I unlocked the car, seating down and buckling my seat belt. I put on the hat and sunglasses to cover my face.
I arrived at the airport shortly and got onto my private plane. The plan was the plane would drop me off in Chicago as a layover stop before heading to New York. However, I would stay in Chicago and the plane would fool the world. I took off my sunglasses and sat down on the seat.
We were about to take off and my heartbeat started to increase. Fuck, my fear of flying. I held onto the handlebars but it wasn't helping. I took ahold of my phone that my guard had brought over to my penthouse once he located my car. I softly smiled at the wallpaper, before unlocking the phone. I saw multiple text messages from Chase and some missed calls from my mother.
Chase: Hello.
Chase: Did you eat? Look after yourself for me, please.
