Ashlynn's POV-

It was about 2 in the morning when I finally came back to the Dobrev mansion. I parked my bike in the garrage and headed towards my room to sleep.

Upon reaching my room, I took a quick hot shower and headed into the kitchen to get some coffee.

What? Yes I'm addicted to coffee. Well on the bright side, there are worse things I could be addicted to.

I walk into the kitchen and turn on the lights to make the drink. Yes I might suck at cooking but I can make coffee just fine.

I was waiting for the water to boil, when I heard footsteps behind me. My hand instinctively reached for the knife in my sleeve and when the person was standing right behind me, I threw the knife in their direction, intentionally missing the ear by half an inch.

I turned around to see a very wide-eyed Alfie frozen in his tracks. Oh well, shouldn't have snuck up on me bitch.

"How- how did you just do that- woah-" He exhaled.

I didn't bother answering him and turned my attention towards my phone like I did not just almost kill him.

"Can we talk?" He asked in a low hopeful voice. Don't have hope kids. Don't have hope.

I just raised an eyebrow at him, not giving him the satisfaction of a verbal response.

He sighed and took a seat at the barstool and started "I'm sorry" guiltily.

I rolled my eyes, not even looking up from my phone.

"I'm sorry ok? I'm sorry about everything- I should have believed you and- god I shouldn't have been such an asshole- I'm just- I'm so sorry" He apologized. Man these people have too many emotions.

I ignored him and continued typing away on my phone.

"Goddamnit say something Ash. C'mon at least give a chance. Why won't you?" He spoke desperately.

He almost looked like a toxic psychotically obsessed ex lover or something.

Yeah I really should stop making these kinda jokes in serious situations.

"Because I am a heartless brat. But then again, I thought that was already clear." I replied casually while shrugging my shoulders, repeating his words he used earlier.

I saw utter guilt and sadness flash in his eyes. Good. He should suffer. All of them should.

"Look I'll do anything- "

"Look can you like stop whining, I already have a headache. Thankyou." I cut him off in an irritated voice.

Now he looked concerned. Oh great. More emotions. The only thing I'm not good at. Except for cooking ofcourse. Yay. Note the sarcasm.

"What's wrong Ash? c'mon you can tell me , we're family." He asked, now in a concerned brotherly voice. I scoffed at that.

"First of all, it's Ashlynn. Second, I have a family alright. You're just some people I share a DNA with." I stated.

If he didn't look enough broken before, he did now. But quickly, it changed to a look of disbelief and disgust.

"What family? The three friends you have? Well news flash, they probably just wanna get in your pants. We're your family. Always were and always will be. There's no denying that." He stated as if I'll listen to him.

I swear the AUDACITY this mother fucking bitch has-

Before I knew it, My dagger was flying straight for his face. He ducked at the last moment with a horrified expression. I don't care what these people say about me, but If they dare say something about my family-

Well let's just say it won't end up pretty.

"Next time you say something like that about any of them, you won't even get a chance to duck." I glared at him and walked back towards my room.

Stupid piece of shit.

Alfie's POV--

Damnit I'm dumb. Goshhhh she already hates me and I just had to go in and say that stupid shit. Great.

But I know that deep down, she still is my little Ashlynn. Earlier, when we were yelling at each other, I saw how much we hurt her. How much I hurt her. Even though it was just for a second, but it was clear in her eyes.

I really wanted to make this up to her, but she wouldn't even talk to me. Hell she won't even look at me. That hurt.

But, I knew what I'd do. So, with that in mind, I went to sleep.

The next morning, I got dressed, grabbed my papers and headed out. The SC Agency has been the most powerful Agency worldwide since it was taken over by the Italian's. Especially with the Donna of the said mafia working with them.

Nobody knows the identity of this woman. All of the Mafia's, including ours, have tried to gain any sort of information about this person, or maybe even just a name, but nobody seems to know who this ghost story person actually is.

Anyways, It was about 7 in the morning and I headed downstairs for breakfast. I ran into Ash and she looked to be in quite a hurry. She was already done with her breakfast and was heading... more like running....out the door while grabbing the keys to her motorcycle.

I have to say, it is one hell of bike. Like it is EXACTLY my choice. But that doesn't mean I approve of her riding it though. I mean she is just a kid and could get hurt. Not to mention she is underage. But I guess I can't really say anything about that considering we all started driving underage.

I quickly grab a protein bar along with coffee and head out to my car. The Agency has many outlets all around the world and I was going to the nearest one. It was about a four and a half hour drive but I covered it in three.

I did my research on google about the agency and somebody named Zack is the Chief. Thankfully, he is gonna be at the branch I was heading to because it would have been easier to get the job if I was on good terms with the chief.

After the three hour drive, I finally walked in the gates of the building. There was a lot of tight security and I met the chief after about thirty minutes of filling forms and completing all the formalities.

"So I hear you're here to become an agent" Zack started but stopped to check my name " Mr. Dobrev" he continued and looked the least bothered. I was kind of shocked considering most people shrink in their seats after hearing the name.

"Yes sir" I replied back respectfully. He nodded and eyed me up and down. "Why do you want this job? Obviously it is not for the money." He stated confidently while narrowing his eyes at me. He looked to be in his late twenties or early thirties and had an aurora filled with authority and looked like this man was quite respected here.

Well obviously he was, he was the boss after all.

I straightened up and began " Well sir, I'd like to do something nice for the mankind and I have been really impressed by the work of this Agency and I would love to be part of such a productive and absolutely incredible organization such as this Agency." I ended the last part with a smile.

He narrowed his eyes even more as if saying 'cut the crap. That is what everybody says. what is the real reason you are here.'

Well that was true. Everything I said was utter bullshit and I couldn't care less about it. I just wanted to talk to Ash and I am sure the Agency would be a good excuse to. So, I decided to add something about this too. Maybe this guy will understand.

" Also, my sister works here and I would like to spend more time with her and be closer to my family. So maybe you could team me up with her?" I added innocently.

At this, his eyebrows raised and he now looked a little interested.

"Very well then, who is your sister?" He asked formally.

"Ashlynn Dobrev" I replied in the same tone.

He typed away something on his computer and furrowed his eyebrows towards me.

"We have no Ashlynn Dobrev working for this Agency." He replied, now looking at me suspiciously again.

"Oh, Right. Sorry my bad. Please check for Ashlynn Pierce." I said in realisation.

His eyes widened and he visibly paled a little at the mention of the name. Then he looked at me as if I was crazy.

"Are you insane. Ms. Pierce only goes on the missions that normal agents can't. " He said hurriedly.

What the fuck is that supposed to mean? I furrowed my eyebrows and looked at him expectantly.

He sighed and called somebody. He kept the phone on speaker and the person picked up the phone after four to five rings.

"Sup Chief" Ashlynn yelled from the other end. It sounded like she was running or something.

"An American is here for a job claiming he is your brother. What do you want me to do" Zack huffed.

"SORRY WHAT I CAN'T HEAR YOU" she yelled again and I am pretty sure I heard gunshots in the background. Zack was just sitting there, unbothered like this was an everyday thing.

"Your American brother is here" Zack sighed.

"WELL FIRST OF ALL I CAN'T HEAR YOU-" she yelled between now what sounded like an explosion, but was cut off by somebody yelling "Incoming" and with her replying,

"YEAH INCOMING ALREADY CAME. THANKYOU SO MUCH DUMBASS"

"Right. Now where was I? Yeah I'm not sure if you're deaf, but I'm kinda in the middle of something right now dickhead" she spoke hurriedly into the phone.

Zack sighed and yelled "SOME AMERICAN DUDE IS HERE CLAIMING TO BE YOUR BROTHER AND WANTING TO BE AN AGENT."

"oh ............ your phone wasn't on speaker by any chance now was it?" she asked sheepishly.

"Would you kill me if it was?" He asked and looked like he messed up bad.

she sighs on the other end " I'll deal with you later. Right now I'm kind of busy not dying on a mission YOU sent me on."

Zack cleared his throat and was about to reply only to find she had already hung up but not before I heard another explosion.

"And now you got me in trouble. Thankyou very much" He exclaimed while giving me a pointed look. I looked at him as if he were an idiot. I didn't tell him to call her.

"Aren't you her boss?" I amused. He looked like he was thinking about what to say but then chose to ignore me. uh. rude.

"As of now, you can wait in the lounge or whatever. I will get to you when Ms. Pierce and Ms. Devoe return. They are the ones who usually test the skills of the people before deciding who is capable of getting the job. " I was about to ask who the hell Ms. Devoe is but he had already walked out. Great.

ASH'S POV-

I was running out from the building that we just blew up. It was the buliding filled with a gang of drug dealers who were also rapists.

I had to leave early in the morning, but I lost track of time in the gym and had to rush. Anyways, We were running out of the building after planting the bombs and somebody had spotted the one of us and started shooting at us.

In the middle of everything, My phone started ringing and I saw it was Zack. He only calls me when it's very important. I decided to pick it up "Sup Chief" I greeted.

But I'm pretty sure my voice sounded like I was yelling.... because I probably was because of all the gunshots.

He said something at the other end and I could barely hear one thing he said.

"Sorry what I can't hear you" I yelled again. He proceeded to repeat his words, But one of the bombs we had planted in the building blew off and I am pretty sure it shattered my eardrums for a second. Thus, I couldn't hear him again. Also, there was a guy on a motorcycle following us and shooting at us. And he was headed straight towards me. Great.

So I yelled "WELL FIRST OF ALL I CAN'T HEAR YOU-" but Ace cut me off while screaming "incoming".

"Yeah income already came. Thankyou so much dumbass." I rolled my eyes.

"Right. Now where was I? Yeah I'm not sure if you're deaf, but I'm kinda in the middle of something right now dickhead" I replied hurriedly because I really needed to run.

I heard him sigh on the other end and scream "SOME AMERICAN DUDE IS HERE CLAIMING TO BE YOUR BROTHER AND WANTING TO BE AN AGENT." Geez why does everybody wanna shatter my eardrums today.

Wait what did he say. Oh hell no. I'm not dealing with this right now.

And as it turned out, his phone was also on speaker. Great. So ya they both heard everything. I'm so done with this.

I hung up before he could answer me and started running up to our car to get out of here and shoot the biker down.

After doing that, I plopped in my car seat and thought about what I would do. Well I did handle the situation by telling him I was completing a mission he sent me on.

That was a lie by the way. I was on this mission as a member of the DS not the Agency.

Ace and Lix dropped me and Vi at the Agency, which was about an hour drive from where we were.

The security quickly opened the doors after seeing us and we headed to our room to change and headed to Zack's office. He said he needed to talk to us and I had a pretty good idea what it was about. Alfie of course. Gosh I shouldn't have told them about the agency.

We walked in his office and Zack pointed towards where Alfie was sitting and gave me a look which clearly said 'We're gonna talk about this later.'

"Ms. Pierce, Ms. Devoe." He greeted us. Vi nodded at him and I all together ignored him and walked over to the coffee machine in the corner of his office. I could feel Alfie's eyes on me but I didn't acknowledge his presence.

I took my sweet time grabbing a cup to pour the coffee and adding the sugar to it. Zack just looked like he was so done with this while Alfie was looking at me in amusement. Viola just looked like she was trying to keep in her laughter and was miserably failing.

After I was finally done, I turned to Zack while sipping on my coffee. "What's up?" I asked casually.

"Your brother, Mr. Dobrev here wants to become an agent. The resume is just fine and all the paperwork is already filled up. You two are supposed to take the skill test and train him."

I shot him an irritated glance and then looked Alfie up and down, finally acknowledging his presence while Vi was glaring at the both of them.

As much as I wanted to turn this down, it said in the Agency policy that anybody who is not a threat to the agency can apply and it was written by Chris so I can't change it.

Well, let's just give dear brother the most terrifying and the worst training he's gonna get in his life. Me and Vi shared a knowing smirk and she replied with a sickly sweet "sure".
