"I can't do this," I looked into her eyes. I wanted her so badly but I had to remember my mission.
"Why not?" She tried to pull me in.
"I'm supposed to be your mentor," I pulled away, "We can't let things get mixed up." She sighed and I let go of her. She adjusted her clothing and went to sit on the couch.
"Did you know the boss was my brother?" She motioned for me to sit down.
"Yes," I looked at her. She couldn't look me in the eye, "You don't need to feel embarrassed. I want it as much as you do."
"If you did, we wouldn't be sitting here talking about how much we want it," she said feisty.
"I can't be doing those things as a mentor Aurora," I sighed. I can't afford to get too close to her. If I fail this mission the boss will have my head. Feelings in this job is so tough.
"Why do I need a mentor?" She sighed.
"You need to learn the rules," I explained, "and to not be so sloppy. Tom's murder was messy."
"You told me it didn't matter," she countered.
"It doesn't," I said, "but it doesn't exactly help our situation if you leave evidence lying around all over the place. The police didn't find the body. Jamie and Alex did."
"What?" She looked at me surprised, "What am I doing?"
"I know this is a lot," I moved towards her.
"Just go," she buried her head in her hands, "I need to be alone."
Gina's POV
We laid in bed after our steamy session. I snuggled in between Jamie and Alex while we talked.

"So what's the plan for tomorrow?" Alex asked.
"I'm going to view my dad's body," Jamie said softly, "Them I'm going to have him and my mom cremated."
"Are you sure that's what you want to do?" I stroked her hair.
"Yes," she said adamantly, "I will not plan funerals. It's too stressful for me right now." I nodded.
"I think I'll head home tomorrow to get some clothes," I said quietly.
"What about your date?" Alex asked.
"He's not interested in getting married," I mused, "So I'll just talk to them."
"Is that even a good idea?" Jamie looked up at me.
"It probably isn't," I smiled, "but that's alright. Get some sleep girls."
Aurora's POV
It was a new day and it will be better. It was such an exhausting day yesterday, but I'm ready for today to be better. I got in my car and headed to work. I planned to stop by Alex and Jamie after work. I spoke to her briefly yesterday after what Grayson told me but she seemed distant. I have no idea what I'm going to tell her about Gina. I know she's going to find it difficult, but she must know.
Oh great. Such great inspiration for a new day.
Jamie and Alex dropped me off at my home so I could get my car and clothes. This was it. I detested talking to my parents about these things but I didn't have a choice. I entered, and there they were in the living room.
"Where were you?" My mom asked.
"At a friend's," I mumbled.
"Speak clearly when answering your mother," my father said threateningly.
"How was your date?" My mom changed the subject.

"There's something I need to tell the both of you," I took a deep breath, "Grayson is nice but I'm not interested in him. I am already dating two girls." They stared at me in shock.
"At the same time?" My mom asked, clearly dumbfounded.
"Yes," I nodded.
"This is preposterous,"my father shouted.
"It really isn't," I looked at him, "I am free to love who I love. I will not be told by people that don't even know what love is, to marry someone that I don't know. All for the sake of a company? Please."
"How could you -" my mom started.
"An arranged marriage is not the way for me," I cut her off, "I can do your stupid company with whoever I please."
"The point of it being arranged is sk that you will have someone from the company," my father said angrily, "That person will understand what needs to be done."
"Enough,"Gio said coming down the stairs, "Leave Gina be. I will teach her the ropes when the time comes."
"That is not how things work," father roared.
"The great thing about owning a company, is that you decide how it works," Gio smiled.
"I have decided how I want it done," father looked at us, "If you don't listen there will be consequences."
"I will take responsibility," Gio declared, "Gina doesn't even know what she's getting into. It's not fair to her."
"Gio this is unacceptable," my father seethed.
"She deserves to love," Gio looked at him angrily, "Being one of the people who's right was taken away to love, I understand how she feels."
"Very well," my father stormed off.
We finally finished all the required preparations and Jamie will be able to cremate her parents. We headed on our way home when I noticed a car in the mirror. It seemed to be following us. It's actually not the first time that I've seen it.
"Jamie," I called her, "I think we're being followed."
"What?" She looked in the mirror.
"Take us fo Mc Donald's," I suggested, "Let's see what they do."
The car mimicked each of our turns, staying on our tail. This was pretty dangerous. We couldn't go home, the person might try to confront us there.
"What do we do?" I asked Gina.
"We confront them," Jamie pulled to the sidewalk and the car did that same. She got put of the car, and walked towards the other car parked behind us. I followed behind her and couldn't believe who it was.
"Hello?" I answered.
"It's me," Aurora's voice came through the line.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"Something is terribly wrong," she said terrified.
"What do you mean?" I asked with urgency in my voice.
"My next target is Sid Jennings," she said quietly, "Jamie and Alex's bestfriend."
