James's Point of View

Oh, she is so going to fucking kill me. I am beyond dead at this point. I've come up with several excuses, but I know that none of them will be sufficient enough for her. I wouldn't blame her either, this is by far the worst thing I have done to her. With Vena being as stubborn as she is, I know that it's going to take a fucking army to get her to forgive me, if she even does. I wouldn't expect her to, I just hope she does. I'll deal with the passive aggressive comments, the aggressive comments, the yelling, the constant reminder of what I did wrong. I'll take it all because I have to. I mean, if I was her, I probably would've broken up with me by now. Although, that's the thing about Vena, she hasn't given up on me and I'm not exactly clear on why she hasn't. I mean, I've done enough things to her to give her plenty of reasons to breakup with me.

Autumn rolls her eyes at me, "Would you just fucking stop. I'm sure she'll forgive you just like she always does considering that she has little to no self respect."

I look at her, my eyes narrowing at her. "What the fuck did you just say?" I ask her, angry fuming through my words.

How the fuck could she say that about Vena, my girlfriend and frankly the only girl that I've ever fallen for?

She shakes her head, Nothing, Jesus fuck," she tosses her pen on her desk.

"Do you really believe that shit talking Vena is going to make me want to help you? Because if so, you are poorly mistaken."

She sighs and leans forward in her chair. She looks at me for a moment, "Listen, I'm sorry, I'm just frustrated with all this shit. I don't how to deal with it anymore."

I know she is just saying that to get me to help her, but I'll let her have it. It's the way that I've always known Autumn to be. She'll do anything to get her way and most of the time, it works. Considering all, she shouldn't do that to me because I'm her brother. I'm not saying this is the way that because we are siblings that we should care about each other because our family has never functioned that way. I'm saying it in the way that I know her ways and if she thinks that I'll be another victim to her shit, then she's clearly mistaken.

I cross my arms over my chest. "So, what are you going to do because this isn't going to solve itself." I state the obvious.

She tilts her head at me like as if I'm joking. I smirk at her and she shakes her head.

"If they attack, we could take them, we have the numbers. I just don't know what they have. Clearly someone has been leaking our shit over there and at this point it could be anyone who's left."

This sparks my attention. "Woah, woah, wait, leave? Since when have they been able to leave the company?" I question her. As far as I always knew, if you were in the company, you were in for life and that's why we have so many families. I mean, I thought this was set in place and that was it.

She groans, leaning back in her chair. "I know, I know, it's a disaster, I should have never allowed it. A few years ago, a group of my guys came forward and told me that they wanted to start their lives over again, live a normal life. Unfortunately, I sympathized and let them go."

I shake my head at her, "How could you not see this coming?"

She stands up and paces in the open space of her office. "I don't fucking know, I just thought... I don't know, I thought that if they were anything like you, they deserved a second chance at another life."
