I woke up the next day just to see Devon on the opposite side of the bed with her foot on my stomach.
"Someone's a messy sleeper,"I said and chuckled in a low voice so that I don't wake her up.
I slowly got up and freshened up then went downstairs to look for Silver.
I stopped by his office when I heard a sound and peaked in trying my best not to get exposed.
"Colette, people are home. We can't do this,"Silver said with a hint of impatience in his tone.
"Just a quickie baby. noone is going to hear. I promise I'll be quiet,"she said as she sat on his table.
Disgust!
I felt disgusted. I had just poured my heart to him yesterday about everything that happened and today he was hooking up with green head?
I thought I meant something to him ....but again, it's been three years.
People change and so did he.
I stood there waiting for him to pull away and tell her to go away but he leaned in and kissed her neck sensually.
Tears started welling up my eyes. I couldn't move and the lump in my throat just kept growing bigger. I felt hurt and betrayed. But why? It's not like we were dating or something.
I suddenly felt someone's hand tap my shoulder. I slowly turned around to see a worried Devon. I clenched my jaw and hugged her tightly.
"Come on darling. Let's go,"she whispered in my ear and took my hand. Leading me away from the room.
We went to the kitchen and made some breakfast.
I appreciated that Devon didn't ask me questions. I needed some quiet.
After a few minutes, the little slut came down the stairs straightening her short skirt and fixing her hair.
My blood boiled just by looking at her.
"Goodmorning Dee,"she said and rolled her eyes when she turned her face to look at me.
A few moments later, Silver came down and his eyes widened the moment he saw that Devon and I were already awake.
"Colette was here for some... Some business,"he stuttered as he looked at me.
"I'll stop by later to finish our...work"Colette said while winking at Silver and then walked away.
I rolled my eyes and continued eating my breakfast.
"So, Silver tells me that you're amazing at shooting and you never miss your aim,"Devon said trying to break the silence.
"yeah,"I said and gave her a reassuring smile"we used to be rich so our dad always taught us how defend ourselves,"
Memories of my family came flooding back to me.
That piece of shit that killed them was still out there. I had to make him pay even if it was the last thing I would do.
"Silver, are you looking for Liam?"I asked him trying to hide my tears.
"I'm doing my best to find him,"he said while standing up and walking towards him.
Gently,he cupped my face with his huge hands and wiped the tears starting to fall. "I promise you Ty,that idiot will pay for everything he has done to us. Have a little faith in me."
I gave him a tight smile and held on to his hands.
"Can I help?"I asked looking at him straight in the eyes.
He bit his cheek and moved away,"No! "
"what??why?"I asked standing up to face him.
"It's dangerous Ty. This is not a game. It's real life,"He said
"I can protect myself Silver. I'm not a baby,"
"She's right Silver. She can protect herself and she's a master shooter,"Devon interfered while munching on her cereal.
"Listen Silver, I have nothing to loose. If I die in the war then... "before I could even finish the sentence, he had his palm on my mouth.
"Fuck Tyra!why do you have to think about death? You might have nothing to loose but what about me dammit! I can't loose you again Tyra,"He said as he looked at me with pain and loneliness.
"The answer is no! Tyra.And that's final,"he said before he left.
We heard him slam his office door and there was silence after that.
"Whoa!what was that about?"Devon said while looking at me.
"I don't know Dee. I don't know, "
After breakfast, we cleaned the dishes and Devon left.
I had to make Silver understand what killing Liam meant to me. I had to avenge my family.Knock knock knock
"I'm busy Tyra.Lets talk about this later,"he said.
"I don't want to talk Silver. I'm just here to say that if you're not going to let me help, I'll just go and do this on my own,"
I heard a few things drop on the floor.
"What's so hard for you to fucking understand Monroe!"he said as he opened the door "this isn't childs play. It could cost you your life."
"Silver, I swear I'll be careful. Besides, you'll be there to protect me,"I said while holding both his hands, "please trust me. I need to do this for my family,"I said as I raised my head to look at his.
"Okay Monroe.You start tomorrow.Welcome to the family, "he said with a sigh.
"REALLY,"i shouted in joy and hugged him,"Thank you so much."
"it's not moral to hug your boss Monroe,"He said
"Oh,but its moral to have private meetings in the morning?"I pulled back and walked away before he could say anything.
When I reached my room, I face timed Candy and Devon to tell them the good news.
I was so happy until I thought about Colette.
Can't my fairy godmother just make her go to the North Pole or something?
Aaargh she's soo annoying.
The rest of the day was uneventful. Thank goodness I didn't see whatsherface here again.She pisses me off so bad.
I slept early so that I'm not late on my first day.
The next day, I woke up extra early. I hurriedly freshened up and went downstairs.
"Let's go. I've already packed you some breakfast.you can eat on the way, "I nodded my head trying my best to hide my excitement.
"So do you have thousands of employees?"
"Yes,but I only work close with a few,"
"wow!thats so cool,"I said while eating the sandwich he had packed for me.
"So, what am I going to do today,boss?"I asked with a broad smile.
"You? Nothing,"he said while concentrating on the turn he was making.
"what do you mean?I thought we talked about this Silver,"I said angrily.
"Today, everyone is coming to the warehouse late. I've organized a party to introduce you as part of the family. "He said while glancing at me.
"Then why the fuck did you make me wake up this early,"
"Because you'll help me with all my meetings today. Today, you will be my personal secretary love,"he said and winked at me.
Aaargh personal secretary!.. This is going to be a loooong day.
Meetings,meetings and more meetings. I hardly had enough time to breathe. How many fucking businesses does this man have. I could tell that he was enjoying my frustration. That little fucker.
Time flew. And it was time for the party. On arrival, everyone turned their heads to face us. Candy and Devon were ecstatic. I could see it in their faces.
There was pin drop silence.
"Thank you for showing up,"Silver started "So, I've called all of you here to introduce someone. She's going to be part of our family from now on."
He held my hand and ushered me infront of him.while holding my shoulders with either of his hands, he continued, "This is Tyra Monroe.She's going to work with Devon under guns and explosives.""But boss, isn't that too advanced for a newbie,"I heard someone say.
"No. She's talented, smart and definitely one of the best shooters we have,"Silver retaliated. It felt good to have him defend me.
"Tyra, that is Dylan.He and Candy work under technology. Anything you need, from tracking,to hacking ,making secret cameras they'll do it. There's nothing that couple cannot handle. There's Colette, Matteo and Pearl.Mateo and Pearl are dating by the way.They work under shipments. They supervise everything to make sure no one steals from me and that everything is in order for export and import.""Wait wait Silver. But wasn't Dylan the one who caught me last time at the docks?"
"yes, Mateo had an emergency and Dylan filled in for him,"
My mouth formed an 'O' as I asked him to continue.
"That is Andrea and next to her is hunter. They're our undercover spies.
And last but definitely not least ...."
"BEARBOO!"I heard someone shout.
"Nathan!"I turned and ran over to hug him.
"I missed you so much bearboo,"he said while tightening his grip on me.
"Me too peanut. Me too,"I said finally pulling away.
"Guys this is Tyra,"he introduced me for the second time clearly excited.
"You know, when we were children,i'd always tell her that if she didn't eat all of her food, a bearboo would come and eat her and then she would finish it all in seconds!"he said while bursting in laughter. The others also laughed along with him.
"Now that I think about it,i don't think there's anything called bearboo,"I said while smiling at him.
"Of course there's not you scaredy cat, "he said and greeted Silver.
"That's all for today.Enjoy yourselves,"Silver said and everyone dispersed.Some went to the bar to drink others to use the karaoke machine and others were just talking amongst themselves.
Devon and Candy came over to me and after Devon filled Candy in on what we walked in on this morning, we decided to get drunk and forget about the worries of the world.
I'm pretty sure I was drunk when I went to the karaoke machine.
"HEY EVERYONE CAN I GET YOUR A-A-ATTENTION,"
"YOU SHOW THEM GIRL!"I heard Candy shout as loud as me with Devon cheering her lungs out.
"FIRST I WANT TO SAY THAT I LOVE YOU TWO GIRLS SOOOOOOOOOOO "hiccup"SOOOO MUCH!"
"Go fuck yourself,"I heard Colette say from the crowd.
"I DONT CARE WHAT YOU SAY GRERNHEAD,"I retaliated "I WANT TO SING A SONG FOR SOMEONE SPECIAL. "
I saw Nathan mouthing to Silver, "She's drunk,"but Silver told him to wait a little while.
"OKAY, SO HERE'S MY SONG. ITS CALLED BLIND BY PRETTYMUCH.I'd loose my mind before I see
you and I separated. I'm so
scared to loose you never choosing
to let go. Love's so fragile, anything could happen to me now ,hearts made of glass but somehow we last.
Yeah we made it.
I would rather be without vision before I ever watch you leave. Got me feeling like oh oh oh I'd be better off blind.Before I could finish my song, I started vomiting.Silver came up to me with a chuckle and carried me out of there bridal style to his car.That was hella sexy hehe!.He made me drink a bottle of water and drove off with a huge smile plastered on his gorgeous face.
