Heat novel Chapter 27

Ashley was in complete horror as she watched Jay place the roses in the vase that was on the available table, "What are you doing here, Jay?" She asked as normal as possible but when Jay turned around with a furrow on his face, her heart skipped a beat, "Tatiana told me that she saw you in the hospital when she came to visit Jake, so I came to visit you," he said mentioning Jake's name with such ease, which angered Ashley.

"Okay, but Jay, how did you get in here?" She asked watching him circle her bed, "Oh, that was simple," he said as Ashley rolled her eyes, "Let me guess, you came as my boyfriend?" She asked as Jay smiled, "Bingo, princess!" he exclaimed as Ashley furrows, "Why did you lie, Jay?" She asked as Jay furrowed, "I didn't lie, sweetheart, I am your boyfriend," he said as Ashley slowly sat up getting a creepy vibe from Jay, "You're not, Jay, and you never were," she said as Jay's face suddenly went blank scaring the hell out of her, "I could've been, if it wasn't for Jake, how is he by the way?" He asked in a mocking tone.

"You should know, you're the one who did those horrible things to him," she said in a disgusted tone as Jay chuckled, "Oh, he told you," he said walking to sit on the edge of the bed, "Well, he had it coming," he said with a widen smirk on his face, "How could you talk like that Jay, you and your brother almost killed him," she said as Jay scoffed while standing up from his seat, "Whatever, but why do you care anyway, Ashley, I thought you hated him?" He asked walking towards her as she moved back, "You know, Ashley, I didn't appreciate you taking him to our spot," he said as Ashley gasped, "You were stalking us?" She asked in disbelief and horror, "I sure did and you know what I hated the most when I sat down in my car and watched you both, huh?" He asked suddenly grabbing onto her neck which caused her to scream out.

"I hated to watch him f**king kiss what's mine," he whispered deeply in her ears as her eyes filled up with tears, "Tell me, Ashley, why do you let him in so easily, why do you always give him a chance, tell me," Jay demanded as Ashley shivered in fear while tears ran down her cheeks as she bit back her sobs. Jay began to get impatient as his grip tightened around her neck, "J-Jay, you're h-hurting me," she said struggling to breathe as she held onto Jay's wrist. 

"Tell me, Ashley, why?" He asked again as Ashley couldn't take it anymore and blurted out, "B-Because, I love h-him," she said as Jay quickly let go of her neck taking a step back. Ashley held her neck as she gasps for air. Jay stood there staring at her with so much hatred, "What did you just say?" He asked in a deadly tone causing Ashley's heart to speed up in fear. 

The assistant monitor caught Ashley's attention as she slowly reached for it without Jay knowing, "WHAT THE F**K DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME, ASHLEY?" He yelled as Ashley stared back at him with cold eyes, "I said I love him, I love Jake," she said as Jay suddenly charged towards her, but Ashley was too quick as she pressed the button on the assistant monitor before leaping out of the bed, so that it was now in between them. 

Ashley stared back at Jay with eyes still clouded with fear and heavy, unstable breaths. Jay smirked as he stuffed his hands in his pockets, "You sneaky little vixen," he said walking back towards the door, "This isn't over, Ashley, it's just the beginning, I'ma keep a close eye on you and tell Jake that if he doesn't stay away from what's mine then I'ma make sure and finish the deed, "I'll see you around, baby girl," he said with a wink before leaving.

The assistant monitor slipped out of Ashley's hand as Jay's words began to register in her head. Her heart once again sped up as tears began to roll down her cheeks. Before you knew it Ashley's body collapse on the floor as she finally let out the sobs that were begging for release.
