Author’s POV
It was 4.30 in the evening when Ivy was ready to leave for the training session, she came out to the living room where Asher was already standing. He looked at her and gave her a charming smile.
"You are on time, good."
Ivy nodded at him and Asher frowned at her cold robot like behaviour.
"Look, I am sorry I threatened you before but please understand that Jayden is my best friend and I care for him, it's nothing personal.”
Asher apologised genuinely.
"It's ok.”
Ivy replied dryly.
"Are you always like this, I mean silent and dry, it's rude.”
Asher asked curiously.
"I apologise if you feel like I am showing any form of rudeness towards you, it's my nature and I can't help it.”
She again replied with impassive face.
"Ok ok, you don't have to become so formal, we are team now... And don't worry I'll make you human from robot, I want to see your beautiful smile.”
He winked at her giving her his charming smile which she totally ignored.
He huffed at her response.
"It's more difficult than I thought.”
He mumbled to himself which Ivy heard very clearly but decided to ignore that too.
Jayden entered the room and saw jack flirting with Rose and shook his head disappointingly. He cleared his throat to grab their attention, both of them turned towards him.
"Good evening boss.”
Ivy bowed in respect in front him just like Dylan used to do.
He nodded at her and replied.
"Good evening, let's go...”
**********************
They reached to the ground floor, Asher showed her their private hospital and a large training ground were most of the men were already practicing.
Asher introduced her to other men, some of them looked at her with respect and admiration and some of them with lust. But no one dared to do anything stupid because the news about Ivy beating 15 fighters spread like wildfire in the Walker’s mansion.
Jayden called Ivy and gave her gun and all the necessary weapons...
During the whole training session Jayden’s eyes were only on Ivy, he was capturing her every movement in his deep blue eyes. Her every move was calm and collective, she was perfect in whatever she was doing, excellent in everything...
But her grey eyes were awaking storm in his heart, no matter how much he tried to shake this feeling aside, it was coming back like a boomerang, he was starting to feel frustrated.
Asher noticed everything, after so many years he heard Brianna’s name from his mouth and it was shocking for him, Jayden never talked about her to anyone, always kept her memories to himself and cherished them. One of the rooms in his wing was filled with their photographs and memories, it was one of the reasons why Jayden never allowed anyone in his wing without his permission.
Asher was confused as to why Ivy was reminding him about Brianna, and he was worried about his friend.
They finished their training and went home.
Jayden told them to eat dinner without him and he went to Brianna’s room after showering.
He opened the door and entered, turning on the lights he stared in adoration at her pictures hanging on the walls, every wall of that room was filled with her and his pictures. All her teddy bears and toys, gifts he gave to her, everything was exactly in the same condition how she left it.
He walked towards the table and picked up the photo frame of 5 years old Brianna and his lips turned into soft smile. He caressed her picture lovingly, but his heart was paining.
FLASHBACK
A 5 year old girl was running in the playground smiling, suddenly she tripped and fell on the ground, her delicate elbows got scratched and started bleeding but she didn't cry.
"Brianna... Are you ok?"
8 years old Jayden came running towards her, picking her up he placed her on nearby garden chair.
"Are you hurt riana, is it hurting, I told you not to run.”
Jayden asked her inspecting her wounds.
"No Jay, it's not hurting, you know I am a strong girl.”
Brianna replied in her baby voice.
Jayden chuckled at her reply.
"Yeah, yeah you are a strong but stupid girl..."
She pouted at his words.
"I hate you, you called me stupid...”
"Ok I am sorry mi lady, you are super smart, happy now.”
Jayden kissed her cheeks dotingly.
"Yes! You are so handsome jay.”
She pinched his cheeks with her small fingers, giggling and said.
"Will you marry me jay?"
Jayden laughed at her words.
"No.”
"Why?... I am a strong girl I will always protect you.”
She said cutely looking at him with her dove like grey eyes...
"I know you are a strong girl but you are so small, i can't marry you now..
8 years old Jayden replied looking at her cute face with adoration...
"Ohh, then when I become a big girl, will you marry me then?"
She again asked him with hope filled eyes.
He smiled at her words…
"Yes I will marry brianna, you will be my only queen.”
5 years old Brianna jumped happily in his arms after listening his words…
"You Promise?”
She asked innocently.
"Yes, I promise..."
He replied catching her quickly before she fell from the chair.
FLASHBACK ENDS
"I miss you, riana.” Jayden said kissing her photo.
