"So what is this about?" Apollo asks.

"About a sick son of a bitch that abused a woman." I say with gritted teeth. Mateo sits up & stares at me.

"Who is the woman?" Leo raises an eyebrow.

"Valencia Miller." I say & Apollo's eyes widen.
I pull out her file & Vanessa stares at me in question. Her eyes widen at Valencia's picture.

"My assistant?" Apollo says in disbelief & I raise an eyebrow.

"What? She works for you too?"

"Yeah, in the mornings. She's a very kind & clumsy girl. Is this about her?" Apollo asks & I nod.

"What happened to her?!" Vanessa asks, concerned could be heard in her tone of voice.

"A lot." I sigh & rub my hands down my face in frustration.

"She was sexually, psychically, mentally, & emotionally abused. Her ex will be getting out of a mental asylum in North Carolina later today." I say & Vanessa's eyes twitch.

"Also, I will have Sage find every single person that was involved in her abuse as well." I say. The thought of there being multiple boys there & not a single person helped, angers me.

"There was more people involved?" Mateo raises an eyebrow & I nod. Leo stares at me with sad eyes.

"10 or 11 boys, including her ex's brother." I lean back in my chair & Vanessa shuts her eyes. I notice Apollo's fist ball up.

"That poor girl went through so much & she is still standing." Vanessa whispers.

"How do you know all this?" Leo asks.

"She told me. She works for me & also, I'm 'spending time' with her." I say & Apollo gives me a small smile.

"You're dating & you didn't tell me?!" Leo stares at me in disbelief & I chuckle.

"We're not in a relationship." I sigh.

"Yet." Mateo & Leo say at the same time & I roll my eyes.

"His name is Derek White & his brother's name is Dominic White. I'll handle him today." I lean back in the chair & cross my arms over the other. Sage had found his location earlier today. I'll pick him up soon.

"We're coming." Mateo chuckles & I smirk.

"You know we're going to protect this girl like like our own, right?" Leo says & we fist bump each other. Everyone else nods & I smile.

"Lets start, shall we?" I clap my hands & smirk.

I walk around Milo's house barefoot in his shirt & look around. He left earlier this morning for a meeting & I have been alone in the house. He didn't want me going back to my apartment for the rest of the week just to be cautious.
