I'd been looking for Kole for hours now, his whereabouts were completely unknown by all of his family, or that's what he told me anyway. I figured he knew about my kiss with Charlie, that he was taking some time off to consider being with me... but then where was Charlie

My next theory was that he had killed Charlie. Then I realised that Kole could never kill someone! He's soft as butter, Charlie's more that kind. Ya know the overly outgoing ones that are deep down just psychopaths? Yeah Charlie reminded me of that sort.

Obviously, Kole was overly outgoing sometimes but he had no psychopathic tendencies. I mean he wasn't like a serial killer or anything right? I chuckled at that thought.

I decided to go into The Hound, Kelly had told me I could come back to work as and when I please, she understood completely that Max was after me. That's the privilege of screwing my boss's brother right? I mean if you can't get your boss... (her being female and all).

When I arrived, Olivia was behind the bar flirting with some old dude and Kelly was over by the pool table. "Hey girls!" I cried as I entered the room. Both turned their attention to me, only one replied, "Heeey sissy-in-law!"

"I'm not MARRIED Kelly jeez!" I laughed. "Yet." She smirked, running towards e with open arms. "So let me tell you about that hunk I met last night!" She boasted, I flashed a smile at Olivia as if inviting her over, but she turned away.

"Wonder what that's about." Mumbled Kelly before smiling again and pulling me over to the pool table. I didn't wonder. She knew.

Scanning the room, I noticed a face I hadn't seen before. He was dark-skinned, black shoulder-length dreads and stubbles facial hair. He was staring right at me. Realising I was looking, he turned away. Honestly, he looked high as a kite.

For the next few hours, that man crept me out, he did nothing but stare. Nervously, I called Marve and had him pick me up to take me home. As Marve entered The Hound, his face lit up as he spotted that man.

The man flashed him a smile but shook his head as if telling him not to go over. Marve nodded then came to collect me. Marve definitely knew this man.

We got in the car Marve had came to pick me up on, unfortunately only a 'true' Delmarno had the luxuries of the Limousine, I got the Aston Martin. Angela had let me know that even after her twenty years of Marriage to Luiz she still wasn't allowed in the limousine alone.

Only lord knows what they were hiding in there but I guessed until Kole had full control I won't be able to find out, maybe not even then.

"Marvin." I called sternly. I highlighted my seriousness by using his full name instead of calling him by 'Marve.'

"Yes, Miss." he answered, recognising my serious tone correctly. "I want to know who that man was." I bossed. "I have no idea who you mean, Miss." Marve replies.

"Marvin, I know that you knew that man and I want to know who he is right now! He was staring at me all night, I have the right. Kole would respect that so you should to." I barked, trying to sound as mature and ladylike as I could.

"That's exactly what I'm trying not to say miss, excuse that I shouldn't be saying this but... i don't think Kole would want you to know who that is, seeing as he gave out the order." He informed, turning away from me for good, finalising the conversation. So Kole had ordered for someone to watch me... what the hell was he doing?
