2/2 of the double update I promised!

Shayde's POV

Damn, my woman can cook. The pancakes she made, melted in my mouth easily. The boys and I were enjoying this heavenly food when we heard it.

CRASH!

Opening a kitchen drawer, each of us grabbed a .45 and headed upstairs cautiously. Several more crashes followed the the initial one. We headed towards my office, since that was where the noise seemed to be coming from.

I motioned for Jaxson  to stand behind me, and Ashe to kick the door before I headed in. We made our way inside and were greeted with a room that looked like a tornado had come through it.

"The hell?" Ashe asked before he ducked from a vase that came hurling at his head. It hit the wall, shattering immediately. Hayle was throwing various items around the room, occasionally stopping to punch or kick the walls.

"What the fuck happened?" I asked no one in particular. She let out an ear-piercing scream as she picked up a knife from my desk and threw it in between Jaxson's legs.

"FUCK! What the hell did I do to you, woman?!" He shouted in alarm. 

She stopped abruptly and turned around, when the computer beeped to alert her that an email came through. We watched silently as she read the message that was sent to her.

Her face turned pale and her whole body tensed as she read it. Before I could see what she was scared of, her shaking hand deleted the email. 

Her whole body shook and collapsed on the ground. She hugged her knees to her chest while mumbling small phrases to herself. I had never seen her so vulnerable before. The boys and I knew what she was capable of, but being scared shitless was not one we thought she was capable of.

"Leave." I ordered the two men to leave as I squatted down to Hayle's level. They left immediately, shutting the heavy cherrywood door behind themselves.

"No. No. He can't find me again. My sister. Tara. No. What do I do?" She kept rambling similar sentences to herself, while rocking back and forth. She looked like she had seen a ghost.

"Hayle, look at me." I demanded. She kept her head down whispering to herself. I grabbed her small form, and sat myself down on the couch in my office with her in my lap. Brushing a few strands of hair from her face, I tried to get her to calm down again.

"Love, let me help you. Please, Hayle." Her head shot up and looked at me intensely.

"What do I do? What do I do?" She whispered, looking around frantically. I grabbed her face, making her look at me.

"Calm down, my love." Her breathing slowed, and her panicked brown eyes locked with my dark green ones. 

"No, please, no." She chanted, becoming agitated again. I rubbed soothing circles on her back, while trying to get her to focus on me.

"What happened?" She looked frightened before opening her mouth to tell me what had caused her to go batshit crazy.

"Adonis knows I am alive. He also knows where I am, and he said he's coming to get me. He also sent me pictures of Tara bleeding." She started to cry again, tugging at her long, silky brown hair. I grabbed hold of her hands to keep her from hurting herself.

"He will not get you, my love. You are mine and mine only. We will find your sister, and make him pay for his wrongs." I felt a surge of possessiveness take over as I vowed to protect her. Moments later, she fell asleep in my embrace after I had rocked her back and forth while whispering sweet nothings in her ear.

I carried my sleeping beauty upstairs to my bedroom and placed her in my bed. Stripping down to my boxers, I joined her in bed and pulled the blankets over us. I wrapped a possessive arm around her waist, holding her close to my body.

Little did she know, that she had my heart and soul already. This woman had me feel again, and I could only hope that I could return the favor. She became my everything in such little time.

She was sarcastic as hell, yet kind. She was also gentle, but could kick your ass in a matter of seconds. She was mine.

This woman would be the death of me one day.

Hello Beauties!

These were the two double updates that I promised!

It seems as if our mafia man has broken through her tough exterior, and made her start feeling again. Damn, she is dangerous when upset. I seriously cannot wait for you guys to read the next chapter. I'm currently writing it and will have it up hopefully later this week. Until next time!
