Kasity :

As soon as we were back to Alastair's place, we got out of the car and started walking. It was late at night. A pretty dark night.

•Late at night
I'm sippin' as you pass me by
Red or white?
You pour another, say, "It's fine"•

We remained silent until we reached the room in which I stay.

I got in but he stayed at the door.

"I will tell you everything you want to know now, if you want." Alastair says...

"I don't know..." I say, getting a little nervous...

"I just don't know what to do anymore I feel like everybody's lying to me about something and I'm stuck in a position from which I can't control things well. First there's Areson and his complexity,  then there's Avery and John, convinced to make sure I'm fine because they need Areson to stay focused. And then there's Jason who is obliged to keep me safe because he belongs in my secret security and Vanessa, whom I've been disappointing a lot lately. Oh and there's Sebastian too, who doesn't seem to disappear for good. For just one moment I need everybody to stop messing with my life because I can't handle it anymore." I say, becoming more upset.

"You shouldn't have drunk that last drink you know that right?" Alastair replies...

"I am not drunk Moreno." I tell him.

"Alright I know." he answers.

Then he leaned against the door, looking tired.

"Quick solution. Tell Areson to..." he said and then coughed as a disguised swearing.

"Tell him to go to hell along with his problems? Wish I could." I cut him off.

"Oh well..." he says as he pretends to be speechless.

"Are you going to sleep now or not?" He asks...

"How am I supposed to sleep?" I answer...

"You might want some nice calming advices now but the things is... I can't do that, comforting people is not my thing, it's disgusting." he answers, slightly laughing...

"Wow that's a sign of psychopathy don't you think so?" I tease.

"Thank you, I'll take it as a compliment." he answers...

In the meantime, I had approached him more.

His eyes were fixed on me as they moved from mine to my lips and then down my neck.

•I don't believe in you
(I, I don't believe that)
'Cause I know just how you do
(I, I seen it right through)•

"I don't usually get distracted." he said when I gave him a questioning look.

" And now I am." he continues...

"I..."I try to speak as my lips had dangerously approached his.

•I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
Had conversation, yeah, I think he's alright
Seemed kinda funny, yeah, he kinda my type
Yeah, yeah, yeah•

"You're answering my questions tomorrow, no excuses." I say with a low voice, as he was constantly looking at my lips...

"I am just going to..." he says but then stops.

•I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
One conversation, now he's spendin' the night
I think I love him, though I know it ain't right•

"Going to sleep I suppose." I say, not taking even a step back.

"You will regret it." he answers as if he knew my intentions...

He kept looking at my eyes as his lips approached mine even more...

They moved down my neck, still not touching me. I closed my eyes.

I took a step back because we were standing at the door but he didn't move.

They his gaze met my eyes again...

As much as he wanted to continue I could clearly say he couldn't.

•I don't believe in you
(I, I don't believe that)
Disguised but I see right through
(I, I seen it right through)•

"I could be a total womaniser I assure you. But I prefer to play 'gentleman' with you so I don't get to lower myself the way Areson did." he says as he steps back...

•I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
Had conversation, yeah, I think he's alright
Seemed kinda funny, yeah, he kinda my type (kinda my type)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
One conversation, now he's spendin' the night
I think I love him, though I know it ain't right
Though I know it ain't right•

"What did you just say?" I ask him, slightly irritated...

"Areson is not-" I wanted to deny what he said but he cut me off, with his finger towards my parted lips, still not touching.

"We will find that out tomorrow." He continues.

"Now, I am not coming in this room 'cause we both know what's going to happen." he says...

"And what's that?" I ask, rhetorical question.

"Well, you know-" he said...

"Okay alright fine no need to describe anything." I cut him off.

•How can I ever believe him? (Yeah)
The one that could be so deceiving (yeah)
Boy, you were my only vice
I never feel this way
Won't be no hostage, I'm leavin' (yeah)
Boy, you just gave me a reason
No, I never thought I'd be the one
No, I never thought I'd be the one to fall
Watch me bounce before I give you my all
So I promise, tonight is the last call•

"I was testing you, you passed, you've earned a significant amount of my trust." I announced as I walked towards the closet, starting to unzip my dress.

"That's good to know. I gave my word to Jason to not hurt you or even touch you." he says...

"Even if you would want to?" I say as I approach him once again.

"Still testing me?" he asks with a light smile...

"Not this time." I reply.

"Please stop." he says as he looks away while smiling.

"Areson wouldn't like that." he adds.

"Then I'd do that one thing he doesn't like." I say with a devilish smile.

"Goodnight Alastair." I say...

"Goodnight." He said as he slowly closed the door.

Areson :

"That's all we found out Areson. For now let's leave them alone." Jason tells me...

I smile.

"That's it, I'm not dealing with this anymore. That's enough." I answer, clearly pissed.

"Why do you have to be so angry about it?" Jason asks disappointed as if telling me to focus on business from now on.

I hit the desk and get up.

"Because I know what he is going to tell her and I know that she is going to believe him no matter what. And then I know that she is going to come at me and ask me questions I'm not able to answer." I almost start yelling, as I nervously walk from the desk to the window.

"Then let it be that way Areson, let her think whatever she wants, let them be our enemies, who cares right now?" he angrily responds.

"I care." I raise my voice once again.

He remained silent for a couple of seconds...

"Then don't Areson. For God's sake everybody's focused on this right now and we're forgetting the important things. I'm telling you, I don't care about this and there's no reason to fear Alastair anymore because he can't do anything to us. Because of her. We literally have bigger problems coming right now and Kasity is the least thing I care about." He angrily says.

"Really? Are you kidding me? What if it was Vanessa? What would you do?" I ask...

"This is the last time I'm going to say this. My behaviour is under no circumstances your concern. And I'm saying this to everybody. If anybody says I've changed because of her, I won't tolerate it. Whoever doesn't want to continue being by my side shall leave right at this moment." I angrily say.

"You can all just get lost. Because I've been tolerant enough until now. As if I don't have enough problems already." I continue as I pour myself a drink.

"Alright." Jason says as he raises his hands.

"We'll stay. And we'll see how you are going to manage what's coming next if you are not focused and collected." he continues, implying something...

Then, he gets up and leaves my office.

At that moment I sat down again and closed my eyes.

*Flashback, 5 years ago*

"You can't do this to me Areson." she said.

"I can't be with you." I coldly answer...

Her eyes teared up. Then, her facial expression changed.

"So that's how you want it to end?" She says with an evil look on her face.

"I gave you everything I could. And you disrespected everything. So if you are going to play 'victim' with me I can assure you that I-" I say, really angry and annoyed, when she cut me off...

"Remember this one thing Areson Kingstone, I am going to be your biggest enemy, your worst nightmare that will haunt your selfish personality every single day and night you breathe." she says as she approaches me with a threatening look on her face.

"You've made your decisions. Take responsibility for them. Don't make me regret the day I met you." I answer...

"You're so manipulative." she says, laughing in disappointment, as she walks towards the door and slams it loudly.

I, then, take a deep breath and sit down.

*End of flashback*

•I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
Had conversation, yeah, I think he's alright
Seemed kinda funny, yeah, he kinda my type (kinda my type)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I've seen the devil, yeah, I met him last night
One conversation, now he's spendin' the night
I think I love him, though I know it ain't right
(Ain't right, ain't right, ain't right, no)•
