Nevaeh's POV
I sat up and looked around the room a bit confused. Then arms wrapped around my waist tighter. Looking down I see Alec sleeping peacefully next to me. I smiled and caress his head. I then remembered what happened a few hours ago and smiled. Crazy. I look over and see that a little bit of light was coming in. It's already morning? I slowly got away from Alec's grip and went to the window. I opened it and the sun comes beaming in. I looked out and saw a beautiful garden. I saw a woman out there tending it.

"My precious is awake?". I hear Alec's raspy voice. I turned around and he was stretching. I smiled and walked up to the bed, straddling him. "Good morning...~" I said then kissing all over his face. He smirks. He then grabs me and flips me on my back. Hovering over me looking rather hungry. I bit my lip at his expression. He kisses me back and lets go. I pout and he pinches my cheek. "Ah cute...come sweetheart meet me in the shower...I wanna try something." With that he gets up heading to the bathroom. I jump up with the covers still wrapped around me hopping into the bathroom.

After messing around a bit in the shower, I was finally cleaned. I walked out and saw Alec only in dress pants on. He looks at me and smiles. "Come here...". I walked over to him wrapping my arms around his neck. We French kissed as his hands gripped my waist and occasionally went down to my ass. I loved it. I love this man. We pulled away moaning from our kiss and stared into each other's eyes. I shyly looked away and looked back up. "So about last night..." I began. He smirks as if he knew what I was going to ask. He cups my cheeks and stared into my soul. "From now on you will be called mine...you're mine now...". he smirks and grabs my face kissing onto my lips. I kissed back moaning into his mouth. We pulled away and giggled. "I love that...".

As we fully pulled away I saw two duffel bags that looked familiar. "Hey, are those mine?" I asked Alec. "Ah yes sorry, I was supposed to tell you. After our amorous congress...me and my guards went to pack your things for you...don't worry it was only me who did it.". He said as he puts on his dress shirt. I tilt my head a bit confused. "Wait why?". He walks up to me looking down at me. "Darling, after what happened last night...it's not safe anymore. You'll be safe with me until these misshapen cool down. I don't need you on the news being pronounced missing or dead...your family doesn't need that...neither do I." He says walking away to the bathroom.

I followed him to the bathroom and looked at him a bit worried. "Wouldn't I still be "missing" especially if I'm not doing the job I had here? What's next my phone gets taken away?! Or I can't walk out by myself in these streets...am I going to be locked up in this house?! Alec you betta not lock me up!" I said getting in his face. He sees how scared I am. He grabs me and holds me tight. I start to sob into his arms. I held onto him. "Shhh...darling...it's ok...it'll will be ok...".

I pushed him away and looked at him. "HOW DO YOU KNOW ALEC?! HUH?! HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW THAT EVERYTHING WILL BE OK?! YOUR NOT A COP OR SOME HEAD MASTER OF SOMETHING OR OR OR EVEN...I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF YOUR GUARDS CAN EVEN PROTECT US OR YOU FULLY...." I sighed and put my head down on the bathroom counter. I then feel Alec come behind me. I stood up and turned around to yell at him more. "Relax...calm down...look at me...LOOK AT ME...".

Alec holds on to my writs as he looks at me worried. I sighed and calmed down. "Good girl...now look, I just want you to relax...everything will be fine why? Because you'll be in my care ok? And no I'm not going to lock you up that's illegal...we both still have work...while I go to work you'll be driven by either your job or my drivers can take you...you still will live your normal life when you got here...just under my care...ok?" Alec looks down at me with a softened look. I smile and began to cry a bit. We hugged. He held me tight as I wept into his arms. This will be hard knowing that there is something dangerous out there. It may affect my flow of work...but I should be good because Alec says so. He said he will protect me.

Alec's POV
Last night...

After Nevaeh and I rocked the bed, we fell into a deep sleep. She did, I didn't. I got up slowly away from her grip and made her hold onto the pillow I laid on. I got dressed walked out. I went downstairs and saw my men, Leo's men and Leo himself. They all laughed when seeing me. "Boss been putting in that work!". "Sir we heard her all the way down here!" "Boss you could've warned me, I was guarding that door...sorry to disrespect but I had to go...". I shook my head and sat next to Leo. We looked at each other and shook hands. Both of crews cheered. "So are we back?" Leo asked. "You bet your ass we're back". We both hugged and shook hands again. Feels like old times.

We all began to drink and celebrate our reconnecting. After that we got serious. "Let's get real...how are we taking down your father?" I asked as I sipped my drink. Leo sighed and laid back. "With this new generation and new technology, he's definitely been doing great with hiding and watching my every move...". "I could get link to look into that...making sure we're not being watched." I replied. "Also Nevaeh should stay here for the time being...to not raise suspicions...she would still be working at my company...I'll be heavy on having security with her everywhere she goes." Leo adds. I agreed.

"I also feel like we need more weapons...and more training for all you guys...who knows what this guy has up his sleeves." I mentioned while looking at both crews. They all agreed. "What about your dad?" Leo asked looking my way. I sighed and ran my hands through my hair. "I'm visiting him tomorrow...possibly bailing him out..." I said starring off. I stood up and snapped my fingers. "Alright you four let's go...let's head to Nevaeh's Airbnb...i canceled it so I have to pack her things...and Leo you should go soon...don't want Nevaeh seeing you like this..". I said pointing at his bloody clothes. "Already on it." He says as he stood up. We shook hands again. We all began to leave the house and go our separate ways.
