I followed Jason to the living room, my overthinking self coming into play with different possibilities. What did he want to talk about?
149Please respect copyright.PENANApX2JP6dgs7
As we sat down on the couch, Jason turned to me with a serious expression. "Audrey, I know something's going on between you and Ace. I've seen the way he looks at you, and I've seen the way you react to him."
149Please respect copyright.PENANAlCZ73te4io
I felt a wrecking squeeze in my heart, but I tried to play it cool. "What are you talking about, Jason?"
149Please respect copyright.PENANApJ8qd6Ubzk
Jason sighed. "Don't play dumb, Audrey. I know you're attracted to him. But you need to stay away from him. He's trouble."
149Please respect copyright.PENANA6E8b9Aju2s
I bristled at Jason's warning. Who was he to tell me who to stay away from?
149Please respect copyright.PENANAy0anDSwbLD
"What's going on between you and Ace?" I asked, turning the tables around.
149Please respect copyright.PENANAMX72Dl3NMa
Jason's expression turned guarded. "Nothing. Just...just business. But trust me, Audrey. You don't want to get involved with him."
149Please respect copyright.PENANAoKvCACygWk
I raised an eyebrow. He is definitely hiding something, I think to myself.
149Please respect copyright.PENANAzFYEQkmEx0
Suddenly, Ace appeared in the doorway, his eyes fixed intently on me. "Jason's right, Audrey. You don't want to get involved with me. But it's too late for that, isn't it?" He asked sarcastically.
149Please respect copyright.PENANAKy0tET2U9U
I felt a shiver run down my spine as Ace's eyes locked onto mine. What did he mean? Too late for what? The concern about his question left instantly, taking Ace seriously is dangerous and can be compared to a high voltage.
149Please respect copyright.PENANAP5i2xltsUm
"Ace, what are you talking about?" Jason demanded, standing up from the couch.
149Please respect copyright.PENANA1yRp8r1q2x
Ace smirked. "Oh, come on, Jason. Don't play dumb. Audrey knows exactly what I'm talking about."
149Please respect copyright.PENANAMCEyxtsIx4
I shook my head, trying to clear the confusion. What was going on between these two? Why in the fudge will Ace put me in the middle of whatever mess they have going, geez....
149Please respect copyright.PENANAlXWENx75Ib
"Ace, stop," Jason warned, his voice low and menacing.
149Please respect copyright.PENANACHB0nBQtmc
But Ace just chuckled. "You can't stop me, Jason. You may have the upper hand right now but I have already set things in motion."
149Please respect copyright.PENANAlb6sABdEfT
Suddenly, the room felt like it was spinning and closing up on me.
149Please respect copyright.PENANAQN4mui9Euw
What has Ace done? I bite my fingers cheekily not wanting to find out but the curiosity in me took control of my mouth.
149Please respect copyright.PENANAz4YQ0lNPvr
"Ace, tell me what's going on," I demanded, trying to keep my voice steady.
149Please respect copyright.PENANArsJCAq4K7g
Ace's eyes gleamed with intensity. "You'll find out soon enough, Audrey. But for now...let's just say that he can't stop me from having you.
149Please respect copyright.PENANA1Dejbozkct
And with that, he turned and walked away, leaving me feeling like I was standing on the edge of a cliff, staring into the abyss.
