The next morning Bayliy got up before her alarm went off. She hadn't slept at all that night, the walls of this house hunted her. The memories, the screams, the souls that once roamed these halls.

She had a long shower trying to get her thoughts in order before she started the day. She got out and pulled on a pair of blue jeans and a white sleeveless top that had a v-neck line, she pulled on a light pink coat and did her hair before applying makeup and pulling her shoes on.

She was going to be spending the entire day with Austin she had to do her best to get as much information as she could. She opened her door and left the room seeing other people moving around as well.

"Good morning dear" Claire greeted her as she walked into the kitchen, "hi" Bayliy replied. She grabbed a mug and filled it with tea from the tea pot. She took a sip and savored the warmth already feeling energised.

It wasn't as good as coffee but the tea will do for now. "Here you go" one of the maids said placing a plate of pancakes in front of her. "Thank you" Bayliy said sitting down at one of the bar stools and digging into her food.

"Morning everyone" Austin said chripily walking into the kitchen, "Good morning honey" Claire replied. "So you ready for today?" He asked sitting next to Bayliy. "So ready" Bayliy repiled pretending to be excited. "Good" he smirked, "can I get you anything honey?" Claire asked placing a mug in front of him.

"No thanks this is fine" he repiled taking a sip, "Seriously you're going to go all day without eating? Here take a bite" Bayliy told him holding of a piece of her pancake on the fork in front of him.

He looked from her face to the fork the back at her as he lowered his head and took a bite, his eyes on her the whole time. Bayliy smiled. He was eating out of her hand, and soon he'll be tasting bullets.

She shared her food with him, when they were done they left the house. One of the guards opened the door for her to his bugatti. Once they were settled he drove out of the gates.

"So where to first?" She asked looking at him as he kept his eyes on the road. A sense of nostalgia washed over her, no doubt he was handsome but the past three years have not been good to him. He looked skinner not in the good way, he looked like if a table fell on him he would die instantly.

His dressing left a lot to be desired too, his usual modern bad boy dressing was gone. He wore a pair of skinny black slacks and a black and gold versace shirt, with all the buttons undone and about a million gold chains handling around his neck. And not forgetting the large gold rolex watch on his wrist.

"Well I have a few things to do so I'm going to show you how my business works" he said turning to her and giving a smrik. Bayliy smiled back but he didn't see the deviousness in her smile.

This was the perfect opportunity to take him down from the inside. Their first stop was one of the warehouses. When the Lean's were in charge the warehouse stored weapons, drugs and cash.

But now there was no cash, hardly any security, hardly any weapons and less then half of the drugs they used to have.

In the middle of the large warehouse a man was strapped to a chair with a few guards standing around him. The man didn't look scared at all, he seemed more relaxed and at home then scared.

"Well, well, well" Austin said as he approached, "What's all this then Baker?" The man asked looking between Austin and Bayliy. "You owe me money dip shit" Austin said leaning forward to be eye level with him.

"I told you I'd get you the money I'm in a tight spot right now" the man said with just as much attitude. Austin frowned, "I've been waiting for a month Jack. A whole fucking month this is just not going to do" Austin repiled.

"Take care of him" he said before moving away from the man. One of the guards pulled out a gun and held it to the man's head, the man didn't cower or beg for his life like he was supposed to. And that made Bayliy curious.

Austin and the man stared at each other before the guard pulled the trigger and blew his brain up. Bayliy watched closely with an emotionless expression, she was very sure that she had seen Austin's flitch when the man died.

She lips slightly turned upward in a smirk, she had just found a weak spot in Austin and she was going to exploit it as much as she could to bring him down.

"Take care of the body and clean this mess up" he said to them. His voice was even but Bayliy noticed the light quiver when he spoke. He was definitely shaken up.

He turned away from the body and walked to Bayliy, "I'm sorry you had to see that" he said grabbing her hand and pulling her out. "H- how much d- did he o-owe you?" She stuttered to make it seem like she was scared.

He shrugged opening the door for her, "a few thousand dollars" he said simply. Bayliy silently got in but her brows furrowed. A few thousand only? She asked herself, the only time she and Blake would personally deal with people was if it was very serious.

She noticed Austin's behaviour as he got into the car and kept his eyes on the road the whole time. He was scared, she guessed that this wasn't the first time he had seen someone die and he was not comfitable with it at all.

Bayliy hoped that her father's death haunted him as much as the rest did.
