No, had that been the case he would have confronted me about it for sure .

Shawn had said he would find a way to speak to me, but since then I haven't heard anything from him, worse was that I couldn't find my cellphone, I had searched around for it for hours , that was what I had been doing when Hayden entered.

I had been alarmed when he walked inside, blood stain and all.

I had been greatly relief to find out it wasn't his, even though I knew very well that it had to belong to another person .

What does this make me?

A bad person?.

Although his eyes were shut I knew he hadn't fallen asleep yet, maybe tomorrow I would be able to find out what was wrong with him and help him get through it.

I scooted closer towards him and placed my head on his chest, I knew very well how much he loves it, perhaps it would let him know that I was here with him, and I was willing to share whatever situation it was with him.

A loud purr rumbled from his chest as his hands wrapped around my waist possessively

"You know I love you right?Damn much, I'll always be there, you won't need anyone else " he murmured against the top of my hair.

It didn't feel like other times he told me he loved me , sure he spoke it in the same possessive way.

It gnawed on me that something was wrong.

But what?

Hazel and I ate lunch slowly, Hayden had mentioned about us leaving soon, although he hadn't specified the soon I couldn't help but feel impatient about it.

During the time we spent in his penthouse, I felt he'd belonged to me then, although In the beginning the attention had been unwanted.

He'd left in the middle of lunch to answer what I deemed to be a very important call , leaving me alone with Hazel.

Robert, Melissa father had also arrived earlier.Along with Hayden's father they went outside to play golf.

I had totally forgotten about Melissa until her father came by today.

Something about him made me felt the creeps running through my spine, I knew I had seen recognition in his gaze just like the first time he came here.I couldn't have imagined it both times and the thought just unsettled me.

My thoughts were interrupted when the house keeper came over, she was a petite middle aged woman who dropped by every weekend.

"I found this among his clothes "

It was my cellphone, I listened to her short explanation as I accepted it from her hand muttering my thanks.

He was with it all along?I had been looking all over for it.

I didn't give much thought to it as I wiped off the corners of Hazel's mouth with a napkin.

"I want water " she said

I scanned around the table briefly with my gaze no notice the glass had been emptied.

"I'll get it " I straightened up to my feet and began paddling my way to the kitchen.

I hummed silently as I poured the water into a glass, I was just about to leave when something caught my attention.
