The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov

“What?” I asked with a perplexed expression on my face.

Did I hear him wrong?

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.

How did they get a photo of Ashton?

I feel the blood drain from my face as I quickly throw the covers off my body and rolled off the bed.

I began to pace the floor, my hands in my hair.

My poor baby was now vulnerable to the world. The mean side of social media.

I can only imagine what they’re saying about him.

Aiden sits up, running a hand through his hair and utters. “Sergio mentioned that he could recognize you from the angle. He’s a smart man and has put two and two together. The media isn’t dumb Sophie, they’ll also figure it out.”
