I followed Jason to the living room, my overthinking self coming into play with different possibilities. What did he want to talk about?
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qwLEFGqsp
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."
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eVVTcTyps
I felt a wrecking squeeze in my heart, but I tried to play it cool. "What are you talking about, Jason?"
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcGbBwb3dm
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."
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkKhCvJcTw
I bristled at Jason's warning. Who was he to tell me who to stay away from?
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhSllQsb6d
"What's going on between you and Ace?" I asked, turning the tables around.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCR6NfHnYS
Jason's expression turned guarded. "Nothing. Just...just business. But trust me, Audrey. You don't want to get involved with him."
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiuVzgtVeX
I raised an eyebrow. He is definitely hiding something, I think to myself.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfrAxrO11V
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.

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.

"Ace, what are you talking about?" Jason demanded, standing up from the couch.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA3F8e4CSj
Ace smirked. "Oh, come on, Jason. Don't play dumb. Audrey knows exactly what I'm talking about."
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfi3b2ELBb
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....
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOx4oE739G
"Ace, stop," Jason warned, his voice low and menacing.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV2nfQLdIX
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."
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0LaX4I3zB
Suddenly, the room felt like it was spinning and closing up on me.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXnlVqf8ed
What has Ace done? I bite my fingers cheekily not wanting to find out but the curiosity in me took control of my mouth.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwktLgq3bR
"Ace, tell me what's going on," I demanded, trying to keep my voice steady.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHY3mh6VR8
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.

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.
