"Yes sir," the male replied, pulling out the small brown envelope he had acquired through his earlier investigation. "I ran a back check into the jewelry you requested, Sir." Hearing his assistant's words, Gabriel stopped flipping through the pages of his documents and raised his head. "And what did you find."

"Well..." the man hesitated, not wanting to offend his boss by bringing the result of his research. "The jewelry was from an antique store And well... it belongs to...to Ms. Leonica." Gabriel's eyes darkened. "Leonica?"

"Yes, Sir. The jeweler said it was purchased in Ms. Romero's name." Bill confirmed, earning a chuckle from Gabriel.

But much to his surprise, the look in his employer's face, despite the occasional chuckles that escaped his mouth, looked anything but pleased.

Yes, Gabriel was pissed. That woman, Leonica, she had the guts to disappear after using him to satisfy her sexual urges all night long.

"Alright children, kindly quiet down." The silver like sound of their homeroom teacher voice, Mrs. Harper, cut through his train of thought.

Looking up, Ashely faced the woman who was trying to calm the children.

When she finally did, she continued. "Today, we will be having our morning routines as usual, however with one exception." Pointing her hand towards the door, everyone watched as a tall well built figure walked into their classroom.

Watching the figure walk in, Ashely's eyes grew wide in astonishment, recognition and
