Alexander POV
I watch Allison make her way to the exit, my eyes had followed her everywhere she was going.
"Baby boo isn't it great, we won."
"Uh...huh...yup..."
"Are you even listening?"
I glanced at Jacob then Serena then back at Allison who was now leaving.
No, I will not let her leave so I chased after her leaving Serena and her brother to them selves. Did I care what they were thinking, nope. I didn't hear foot steps behind me letting me know they were not following me, probably enjoying their victory, well Allison's victory.
Before she had gotten into her car I grabbed her by the wrists making her turn her head towards me, her hair flipping to the side.
She stared at me in silence waiting for me to speak.
"Um...Ally," I breath out, "Hi." Hi? What the fuck. I haven't seen her in two years and the first thing I say to her is hi. What about where have you been? Why'd you leave? Technically I left first but she should've stayed put and waited for me like a good little girl.
I could see the confused expression on her face when she pulled back her arm and turned her back towards me.
"Wait, um..." Okay for a man of few words this is beyond few. I run a business managing hotels world wide. Men cower before me and here I am sweating my ass off unable to form simple sentences.
"Yes may I help you uh, Mr. Reid right?" She gazed at me with her eyes and spoken in a voice I dreamt of hearing all my life.
"Mr. Reid...well in the bedroom you called me a tons of things but Mr. Reid is the least you'd ever call me." My head whipped so fast I think I may have whip lash. She had slapped me.
Her eyes burned in rage, "You know sexual harassment is one of my expertise Mr. Reid. That pick up line may work on other woman but know who you are talking to. Now if you'll excuse me I have a prior engagement." I watch her got in her car and took off.
Who was she? This was not my Ally. Did she have an identical twin. No, that was her, I can bet my life on it. Oh Allison, what kind of game are you playing. Well let the games begin sweet heart.

The screen on my computer remains blank. I'm suppose to be checking emails, filling out contracts, going to meetings, instead my mind has been consumed by her.
Pressing the intercom, "Julie, set me up a meeting with Attorney Campbell for this afternoon at two."
"Sir? You have a meeting with Mr. Rick."
"Did you not hear me Julie, I want a meeting with Ms. Allison Campbell."
"But sir, this meeting is essential and you have had reschedule twice, if you reschedule again you..."
"I don't give a damn. You're paid to do as your told so now do it!" I yelled.
"Yes sir, right away."
"Oh and Julie I do not accept No for an answer."
I picked up my phone and dialed me PA, "I found her."
The clock on my wall read 1:56. Why is it when you are anxious the time seems to have stop.
Breaking out of my thoughts Serena popped in my office closing the door behind her.
"What are you doing here?"
"I'd figured you skip lunch so I bring bearing gifts." She beamed up at me holding a bag full of food.
