A promise

Trigger warning!!! Violence and blood.

Jay has been laying low since his encounter with Victor Tames.

Most people think he's hiding but in reality he's growing his numbers and making alliances.

He wants to wipe out the entire Tames line, even the ones married into it.

Anyone who has Tames blood or has "Tames" in their last name is a target.

Jay wrote a list on who he thinks would be easiest to take out first but since his encounter with Francis he's had to adjust that list.

It used to go like this:

Alexia
Francis
Tyler
Sebastian
Willow
Athena
Everett
Camden

But now he's made a few changes.

Alexia
Tyler
Sebastian
Francis
Willow
Athena
Everett
Camden

He's still severely underestimating all of them.

But he doesn't know that.

He plans to attack today, once Alexia makes it to her brothers house.

Does he want to kill Francis, a man who used to be one of his closet friends? Not particularly. But does it bother him? Not particularly.

Mans is a bitch.

"Camden, Alexia's here!" Everett calls out as he hugs Alexia.

Today is a fun day, a little gathering.

Everyone's here today. Camden, Athena, Halston, Everett, Willow, Tyler, Connie, Sebastian, Peyton, Francis, Lyric, Alexia, Mason, and even Camille.

Everyone greets everyone before making small talk.

Everyone is getting along really well and Camille is really making a good impression on everyone.

Alexia walks over and takes Mason's hands, kissing him before telling him she loves him.

Everyone stares at her for a moment before they start smiling, happy she's found happiness.

"When did that happen?" Everett asks with a smile.

"Oh you know, it just sorta clicked one day." She laughs, not sure how to answer.
