Chapter 17

Harry's POV

You have got to be kidding me!

"What!" I yell, to loud, causing Haven to jump a little in my arms. I look down at her and apologize, pulling her closer. Running my hands up and down her arms. I didn't mean to sound so harsh, I was just disappointed that our first time together being intimate was disrupted.

"Hey, haven't you heard your phone going off? Sanders has been trying to get ahold of you all morning." Liam tells me. Shit, Sanders wouldn't contact me on the weekend unless it was important. He is head of finance at our London office. I never like it when he calls me.

"I'll be right out." I tell him and reluctantly pull away from Haven. "I'm sorry, this is probably important. I won't be long." I lean down and kiss her. I don't want to have to deal with work today, not after this morning with Haven. She is absolutely breathtaking. I was a little surprised that she let me touch her so soon, after our conversation last night I figured she wanted to wait a little longer. Then again, she wanted to wait for sex and like I told her, there's plenty we could do that didn't involve having sex. Now that I've touched her and know how responsive she is, I can't wait to do more.

Haven excuses herself to the bathroom to get dressed. I tell her that I will be back shortly and continue to get dressed. I grab my phone off my dresser and realize its dead, great. I grab my phone charger and walk out into the hall and all the guys were standing around the counter in the kitchen. Their faces covered in concern. This can't be good.

"I didn't realize my phone was dead. What's going on?" I ask, joining them at the counter, plugging in my phone.

"Sanders called me when he couldn't get ahold of you," Liam started, "he said that him and a few other people in his department were going over the books, like they normally do every week, and noticed a huge hole. Like a half a million dollars hole." Shit, I knew it was going to be bad.

"Was he able to figure out how that could happen?" I ask, keeping my fingers crossed that someone just made a mistake in documentation and this loss can be easily explained.

"Sanders told me that when they found that much money missing they started going through all the deposits and withdrawals from the company. They noticed that two withdrawals were made in the past week, both for two hundred and fifty thousand. They tracked down who was on the withdrawal slip but they guy denied knowing anything about it. He was trying to figure it all out so we didn't have to worry about that and getting this new branch started up." Liam explained. I run my fingers through my hair, frustrated. How the hell could this have happened? Who the fuck would do something like this?

"I will go back to London and figure out what is going," I tell them, "you guys can stay here and make sure everything stays on track for this new branch."

"I will go with you," Niall offers. I nod in agreement. "I will go let our pilot know, do you want to leave this evening?"

"Yes, the sooner the better. We need to figure out who did this." I run my hands over my face. I wasn't expecting today to turn into this. I was totally blindsided. I was expecting to spend the day with Haven before she had to go to work. Now I'm going to have to leave for lord knows how long. Of course something like this would happen right when Haven and I take our relationship a little further.

I'm going to miss her.

Havens POV

I'm curled up on the couch, going through my phone, when Harry comes back in. His face etched with worry. Whatever happened must have been pretty bad. I quickly get up off the couch and make my way towards him. I instantly wrap my arms around him, hugging him close. His arms circle around me, holding me tight. He lets out a small sigh. I can feel his body start to relax a little.
