Quickly after meeting Austin, they both became friends. Every day they both would spar with each other only for Austin to get his ass handed to him. This led to putting in a rule that would make the match more equal so Ember wasn't just slamming Austin down every time.
One day after finishing up at the gym they both got to talking with each other. Being part of the dirty work that Xavier is involved in Austin wasn't supposed to be upstairs. But Ember and Austin were so emersed in the conversation they were having that both of them seemed to forget this. That was until Xavier rounded the corner having wondered what was taking Ember so long. Only to see Ember sitting on the couch beside Austin talking
"Ember" Xavier announced his voice echoing off the walls. Startled Ember jumped and turned around
"Xavier! Shit, I got distracted" she responded standing up from the couch
"No worries. Just wondered what was taking so long" Looking over at Austin he gave the man a glare
"Oh, Austin and I were just talking. I guess I lost track of time" Ember sheepishly said. Xavier nodded
"Have you had a shower yet?" he asked unfortunately after coming upstairs they both had just sat down on the couch.
"I'll be right back!" she exclaimed sprinting to her room and slamming the door before immediately hopping in the shower.
Xavier decided that while she was in the shower this would be an excellent moment to remind the new recruit about the house rules.
"Sir--" Xavier stopped Austin
"Be glad you're still breathing. Now I'll only say this once since you're obviously new here. You are downstairs for a reason. She is upstairs for a reason. Is that clear?"
"Yes sir" Xavier glanced at Ember's door then took a few steps toward Austin
"And another thing--" In a flash Xavier had Austin pinned to the floor with his arms behind his back and Xaiver's knee digging into Austin's spine
"I don't ever want to see you near Ember. If I do, that will be your last day alive. Do I make myself clear?" Xavier threatened into Austin's ear so no one else would hear. Austin swallowed
"Yes sir--understood sir" Austin's voice and body quivered under the intense aura that Xaiver was putting off
"Good" Xavier stood up then grabbed Austin bring him up "Get back downstairs" he demanded pushing Austin. Austin stumbled forward but caught himself before hurrying to the elevator and downstairs. While Austin was leaving Xavier sat down on the coach crossed-legged as he waited on Ember. That was when she came out of her room wearing only a tight-fitted spaghetti-strapped tank top and booty shorts with her hair tied in a ponytail
'This woman is going to fucking kill me'
"Let's go!' she giggled grabbing Xavier's hand as she dragged him to his office.
Days after this Austin ignored Xavier's threat and continued to come upstairs with Ember. Even though he was ignoring the rules he still kept an eye out for Xavier to avoid an encounter like the first time. By the time the Christmas banquet came around Ember considered Autin as one of her best guy friends.

"Ember!" Beatrix banged on the bathroom door "Hurry up! We're already late!" she exclaimed as she went to sit on Ember's bed. For the banquet, Beatrix chose to wear a knee-high silvery sequin dress paired with tall black stilettos
"Sorry! I'm almost done!" a few seconds later the bathroom doors opened. Ember had managed to get a shopping trip in with Beatrix before the banquet. During this trip, she bought a beautiful floor-length strapless navy blue dress that was covered in sequences that she paired with some tall black sparkly heels. Ember's brown hair had been curled with heated rollers and pinned half up and half down with a black sparkly clip.
