Aiden sighs, looking a bit unsettled as he looked at me. “I’m sorry mama bear but someone leaked a photo of Ash on Instagram and it’s circulating around. I’ll have them take it down as soon as possible but Sergio knows about him and wants to meet him today.”

My heart dropped in the pit of my stomach.
