Chapter Ten

*edited*

Ash Mortimer:

I was sitting at my desk sorting out paperwork and sent my men to do deals, trade drugs and weapons and most importantly look for the person sending these threats.

I tried to spend as much time with my girls but I've been so stressed about all this that I distanced myself so that I wouldn't blow up at them.

I was interrupted by a  knock on the door.

"Come in." Ray rushed in with a paper in his hands.

"Boss, we found out who is sending the treats."  I stood up and took the paper from him.

"Get some men ready, about five. I'll be going to get that dick and ask him who he's working for."

" yes, boss."

"Also, meeting in ten."   And with that, he left the room. I got back to my desk and took out of the drawer my gun and put it in my waistband grabbing the necessary things for my meeting.

After that was done, it was about 8 am, I walked down the stairs into the living room pointing to my men to get out of the house and get the cars ready. We were about 4 to go.

I saw my angel and princess painting and laughing together. I'll never get sick of that sight. They are my light in this world of darkness. And I'll do anything to protect them.

I was about to leave when I got called back.

Everleigh:

"Hey, Ash? Where are you going? Why are there so many guys around?" I asked confused, standing up whipping my hands with a cloth and walking over to Ash.

"Nothing, I'm just handling some business." He shrugged.

I placed my self in front of him, my hands both sides of his face, my thumbs rubbing circles on this temples.

I knew that calmed him down. He's been pretty stressed out and I think I know why. I've been sneaking into his office and I found the letters that he has been receiving and I am not stupid. I know that's what's troubling him.

I don't know who they are from but once i find out they are going to regret the day they were ever born.

I looked up at him in the eyes, his hands were now places around my waist, resting on my hips.

"You sure it's nothing?" I lifted a brow.

He kissed my forehead.

"Yes, nothing I can't fix." He fake smiled.

I hugged him like my life depended on it, I'm scared he's going to get himself in trouble I just feel it deep down.

He hugged me back and once I pulled out a bit I kissed him. We had a mini make-out session and by the time we pulled back to get some air we were both breathing heavily.

"I have to go now, angel. I'll be back soon." And with that, he left.

I just stood there, knowing something bad would happen. I just have that gut feeling that he's not coming back anytime soon.

It's been almost 24 hours that he has been gone and I have had Simon and Ray follow My every move and it has been getting on my nerves like hell.
