Ashley’s morning payback

On the ground again

Kick of righteous anger and justice

It took a lot of wounds and strategic suffering, but she caved.

Sometimes, a kiss on the cheek hits harder than a right hook.

You earned a kiss. You stole a smooch. You got the knuckle special.

Money doesn't buy happiness but brings plenty of regrets.

Samantha demonstrates her role playing talent.

Boundaries blurred. Hearts stirred. She agrees to take it slow.

Sweeping you into her machinations and yet you are powerless to stop her.

She’s not running from you. Just from how much she feels.

Ashley did something nice. That should’ve been your first warning.

Fear keeps her still. But you decide to face it for her.

Not here, not now. But soon... she promises.

Ashley’s rules are many. But mercy, it turns out, is not completely off the table.

She's not willing to cross the line but she'll meet him halfway.

The baby sister plays at being a queenmaker but she’s still learning the game.

No threats. No bribes. Just the kind of presence that makes you forget you ever had a choice.

Emily shares more of herself than she ever intended to.

He failed her. Now he tries not to fail the others.

You tried to show her one way or the other.

Maybe now Ashley's name calling won't sting as much.

Showing her what she's been missing all this time.

For the first time, she let herself feel it all, because it was you..

Your apology to Emily was sincere. But Ashley certainly didn't think so.

Ashley wants something, she'll not be leaving until she gets it.
