After I Do (Knight #2) (On Hold)

Chapter 21

Rebecca P.O.V 

BANG, BANG, BANG 

I was startled by the loud banging 

BANG, BANG

"Rebecca, get out here now" Marcus shouted from the other side of the door. I was totally shocked because I've never seen or heard Marcus mad enough that he shouted. 

So I ignore him. 

"Rebecca, I mean it. If you don't open the door now I will kick it down " 

He's kidding 

"One"

"Two"

"Okay, I'm coming out," I said opening the door, Marcus' face was red with anger. 

"What's your problem " 

"What's my problem. My problem is that you kept the fact that you're getting threatening from me " 

"What are you talking about" I stuttered 

"Don't try to lie?" he said giving the letters 

"How did you find these" I hid these, how did he find these. 

"So you knew about these" he was angrier now "Why didn't tell me about what's happening before  it came to  this " 

"I didn't want to bother you and I thought it would go away, okay," I said, my voice broke slightly and a tear slipped from my eye. 

"Hey nothing you could say or do will ever be a bother to me," he said bring me into a hug and giving me a small kiss on my head

"You should have told me " 

"I know" 

"That was very irresponsible of you " 

"I know" 

"You need to start telling me things"

"I will" 

"And now that I know we can catch this guy" 

"Or girl"

"Or girl" I giggled and we kissed 

We walked into the living room where the police were, Marcus, handed them the evidence and we sat down for questioning.   

After two hours of questioning, the police left and so did we. The penthouse is a crime scene so we were going to stay with Sophia, Marcus' sister, for a while.

"Are you okay?" Marcus asked it was such a stupid question to ask but it also gave me the opportunity to voice how I feel, so we talked.  

The next morning Marcus didn't want me to go to work alone, in fact, he didn't even want me to go to work at all which is totally insane and I would never go for that. And Marcus knew that and he decided to get me a bodyguard so that both our wants and needs can be satisfied. At first, I wasn't down with the decision but then I was reminded that my life was at stake. So I got a bodyguard named Patrick, he works for James. If Marcus could, he would get James himself but unfortunately for Marcus, James already had a client. 

While I was on my way to work, Marcus was on his way to the police station. They were trying to fund any possible links between the letter and anyone from our past or any of our enemies. I didn't have any enemies well expect my father but would he be categorized as an enemy and even if he was, I don't think my father would go as far as threaten me. He wouldn't right? 

Chills ran down my spine at that thought. 

I  made my way to the office and started to bury my self in work, trying to act like nothing was going on and that everything was perfect when on the inside I'm freaking out. 

I just hope they catch this person real soon, so I can get my life back to normal. 

When lunchtime came I planned on eating alone but Madison invited me to have lunch with the girl. There was going to be about five or less of us: Madison, Willow, Jane, and  Petra(both work in HR ) and me. I thought it was sweet that they invited me, not everyone likes having their boss around, well no one likes having their boss around. 

When I sat down at the table with the girls, I was surprised to see Zoe walking our way and even more surprised when she took a sit beside Madison, why is she even here? 

"Hey," she said waving at everyone  

"Why is she here" Willow whispered in my ear 

"I would ask you the same thing " I whispered back 

"I invited her," Madison said 

"Why ?" Willow asked out loud this time, not caring if Zoe heard her. 

"Because Zoe has changed and she's gotten help and we all were friends at one point " 

" Well yeah"  

After that backward conversation, we continued lunch, it was pretty tense. Willow still didn't like what Madison did with inviting Zoe. I don't know the history between them and why they broke apart so I don't have a say in if she leaves or stays. But I also know about what happened between her and Marcus and I was not comfortable around her and after what happened last night. 

But Zoe stayed, Willow was mad, Madison was trying to get Zoe and Willow to talk and everyone else was on edge, this was the most awkward lunch I have ever been to. 

When my phone started to ring I was relieved. I excused myself and went to answer my phone 

"Marcus " 

"Where are you" 

"I'm eating lunch with the girls "

"Which girls" 

"Madison, Jane, Willow, Zoe-" 

"I need you to get out there now" 

"What, Why" 

"Rebecca, I think Zoe is the one who has been sending you death threats " my eyes immediately widen, I looked in Zoe's direction and saw her staring at me, when she saw that I caught her staring she smiled and not the type of smile that gave you a happy feeling, this smile sent chills down your spine. 

What if Marcus' hunch is right, what if she was the one who has been sending me death threats. 

I need to get out of here now
