I sat on ashers bed trying to process the shock I had received in past days...it's been 2 days since Asher told me who he really was to me..and ever since that he's been behaving so strangely sweet to me it's not that I don't like it..it's just I'm still not use to ashers nice side..but i still feel an emptiness in my heart..i but today I felt weird it's just something feels so wrong but I just couldn't grasp what it is..

"Angel...I brought you breakfast" Asher came inside the room holding a massive tray full of food.

"Asher..you don't have too..I'm fine now..I can get my own breakfast"

"Oh Nur are you really going to deny all the hard work I did"

I sighed "it's..it's just..."

Asher placed the tray on the side table and sat beside me

"What is it sweetheart?"

"Asher I just feel like something bad is going to happen...I don't know I just feel like this"

He cupped my face and stared in my eyes..his eyes held a starry sparkle in them.

"You have the most beautiful pair of eyes I've ever seen"

i blushed. " why are you being so nice to me asher" i asked.

The next thing I knew, he had slammed his lips to mine and nearly knocked all wind from my lungs.

I hardly had a moment to react before he pressed his tongue to the seam of my lips and, at my grant of access, delved inside my mouth. It was a very sloppy kiss with the strong scent of old cigarettes being exchanged in the intermingling of our billowing breaths. My arms reached up and tangled around his thick, strong neck.in an instant i pulled away involuntarily as if it was very wrong for us to kiss..the kiss we just shared was empty and i stared at asher, his breath ragged and eyes full of lust.

"i...i.." i trailed but asher was already in a process of leaving the room.."ash wait" he quickly spun and sneered "what? i was taken aback. he then completely ignored me and left the room.

argh!! why do i have to ruin everything? its just you dont feel a connection when im with asher my subconscious mind inter wind i sighed and decided to go to the library.

...

"pride and prejudice..huh..nice choice" someone said in a deep voice. i was startled to find ahad standing at the door.

"ahad..what are you doing here? " i said trying to sound stern.

he walked in the library and sat in front of me on a brown leathery sofa. "we have more important things to discus than the question you asked me before"

i looked agnrily towards him and stood up to leave.

"nur..i want to tell you something"

"i dont want to listen to you" i started walking.

he quickly got up and held my arm. i was about to scream but the words he said next froze me on the spot.

" you life is in danger"

"how do you know?"

"..it..its just so complicated why dont we sit and talk"

i unwillingly nod and sat on the sofa. ' you have enemy here nur..." he started whispering now " and the your biggest enemy here is asher" 

i was silent "youre lying" "i need proof and how exactly is my life in danger pls tell me briefly"

"listen nur...its not time for proof...i have lived my time life with him..its not like everyday we are abducting a girl like you that got no claims with mafia..he is clearly obsessed with you...i remember the time when he didnt fucking slept and ate for a week just to know your location.,..that was 2 years ago.." then he took out what seemed like pictures from his pocket and handed to me.

i gasped these were...my pictures...pictures of random pictures of me drinking coffee, at college, at park , with elif and..the most creepiest one was me in the bed sleeping. my hands started trembling.

"believe me sooner or later he will ask you to marry him and youre going to be nothing but his possession" 

" but i heard my father...i thought my father took money from him and he couldnt return so you guys took me instead"

"that what asher told you...cunning bastard...your father is dead nur.."

i froze my brain couldnt seem to process the news. " the day your father called..asher got so scared that you knew the truth so at night he ordered our men to abduct yusuf and kill your father"

tears threaten to come..my body shivered.."hes messed up nur a real madmen...stay away from him--"

"stop" i stood up..tears falling down now..." i dont believe you! " shouted at him and left the library.

...

i couldnt sleep that night..asher lay snoring beside me..i kept to rewinding ahads word...what is going on? is he telling the truth...the thought itself made me tremble with fear..i have to know the truth...and i knew that i could only find true answers in ashers office.

i quietly slipped off the bed and took the keys from ashers side table and went outside the room the hallway was dark and deserted i tiptoed my way to the other side of the hallway where his office was situated.

i unclocked the door and closed in behind me and turned on the lights, In a state of half organized clutter, mahogany desk with three drawers on the right hand side, swivel chair, mac book pro, several stacks of paperwork, pens in a tin, floor to ceiling bookshelf, books leaning against one another different directions, , filling cabinet with paper work stacked on top, water dispenser with no cups.

i made my way to his desk drawers and started rummaging through them, on the third drawers i found dossier file...i went through the file and saw different pictures of girls, boys and their whole bio data..mainly all these people were the employees of the mafia i placed the file down and went for the other side of the desk... the last drawer seemed to be locked i crouched and took the keys and unlocked it there i found an other file, i opened the file and found my name with series of my random pictures...i found my whole life bio data in it to make it more creepier  i found my every shopping sales receipt.. 

i took the file and stood up with a blink thud something fell from the dossy..i bent to take a closer look and gasp when i held a beautiful emerald ring..oh my god ahad was right asher is going to ask me to marry him.

suddenly i heard the lights of the hallway flicker on..i quickly placed the ring and the file back in its place and turned off the lights and hid behind the door.

'who is it' an unmistakable deep voice of asher echoed...my heart started to race and breath got heavy and my body trembled...soon i heard footsteps outside the office i held my mouth and prayed..
