Saffire Pov

"You not asking what the detective told me?" I ask Zander.

He has his eyes planted on the road. Not once since we left the hospital has he asked me anything.

We have been sitting in complete silence which is not normal for him.

"Zander" i nudge his shoulder.

"Bomboclaat Saffire, how u fi do that and you see me a drive." He ask pulling over on the side of the road.

"I'm sorry but I was talking to you and it's like your spacing."

"Me hear you Saffire, talk nuh."

"I don't want to talk anymore if your going to have an attitude." I say turning in the seat so my back is to him.

The car moves off and still Zander id not saying anything to me and it's pissing me off.

"Take me to my house."

He doesn't nod or anything so I don't know if he is even listening.

"Why you turn here? I said I want to go home."

"Saffire shut the fuck up. You a big fucking woman suh act like it. As a small disagreement you ready fi throw a fucking tantrum like a child." He shouts in my face.

"Your not sharing anything with me. Do you know how embarrassed I felt when the asshole detective sat there and told me about my own fucking man." I yell back at him.

He looks over at me then touch my leg and sight.

"Fine, what do you want to know about me Saffire."

"Everything. But first how do you worth 80 million? Four years ago you were suffering."

"I got a job at an accounting firm and three months working there I got promoted because of my skills and work ethics. Six months later I was making 200,000 a month." He says while glancing at me every now and then.

"Okay."

"My then boss told me about an investment opportunity. I invested all my savings and got 6 million in return. I kept doing it until last year."

I sigh a breathe of relief and rub my palm over his jawline and through his beard.

"How about Kyrie's mother?"

"I'm not ready to discuss that and I want you to respect that and don't ask Talia or anyone else about it."

"I love you Zander"

He looks over at me and says nothing.

"Do you love me too?" I ask biting my bottom lip.

My phone goes off and it's Travis. I look at Zander and he had his head fastened on the road.

"Hey"

"Jasper is missing."

"Since when?"

"Yesterday, he went inside his house and never left. Boss sent someone to check it out this morning and he is nowhere to be found."

"Okay I'll talk to you later."

I rub my hand over Zander's shoulder before breaking this news to him.

"Jasper is missing."

He looks over at me instantly with a furrowed brow.

This shit is just crazy, I was just with the detective and he pointed out that everyone around Zander is dying.

Now the man he is working for that is mixed up in some serious shit is missing. Kay died and so did his ex girlfriend.

Someone is out to get my man but I won't let him go so easy like the last time. I'm standing firm for this man.

Zander has been fighting all his life to be somebody in life and I refuse to let someone frame him or try and harm him.

I love him and god knows I need him.

"What a happen Saffire?" He ask.

"I don't know baby."

"Seems someone out for me?"

"They won't get to you cause I'm here." I reply intertwining out fingers.

"Who call you and tell you?"

"Ahmm, she works downstairs."

"What's her name?"

"Babe Jasper is missing, the girls name is not important."










Zues pov

"Crypto a the yute weh name Travis call Saffire and tell her seh Jasper missing."

"Weh the phone did a pin from?" He ask.

"Abandoned building near waterfront."

"Good, get everything in motion and Zues for the love of god don't fuck it up."

He end the call and I sigh.

I put my phone in my back pocket and walk to the line that is at the cash register, just as I'm about to pass I collide with someone.

"Oh my, I'm sorry." I reply picking up the phone that fell.

I look up and she is beautiful.

"Thank you." She says with a smile on her face.

"I know this might be a little forward but my name is Andrew and I would love to get to know you."

She smiles again and shake her head while trying to hide her blush.

She outstretch her hand, "I'm Jada."

I take her hand in mine and put it to my lips and plant a soft kiss on the back of her hand.

"I'm so happy I met you today Jada. Can I get your phone number?"

"Sure."

She write her number on the peice of paper and hand it to me.

"I'll definitely give you a call later."

She smiles and I walk away.

As soon as I get in my car I take a wet wipe and rub it vigorously across my lips.

I watch her exit the store and drive off in her car.

Don't worry Special agent Jada sooner rather than later you'll be a memory.

I drive off and turn on my music so I can relax a bit and it's Talia's favourite song playing.

How deep is your love, how deep does it go? How deep is your love, let's explore.

I sing the lyrics and my mind goes back to some of our memories. I have been keeping my distance since the incident because Zander has not said anything about Talia and me.

Fuck it I'm going to stop by the house first.

I pull out my phone and dial Tommy's number, he answers on the first ring.

"Why pre Zues?"

"Tommy, me boss Crypto send me fi go deal with supn but me go ask you fi deal with it fimi caz me get caught up."

"A wah that?"

"You go capture a FBI agent. Tommy go by yourself and deal with the badness. Me go send you the address."

I end the call and turn on the road to Zander's place.
