That week was a fucking nightmare with Naomi. 417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UPcT7UtG4
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡds5NC9AvpV
The blonde, bimbo monster bitch absolutely hated me and she wanted to make sure I didn't forget it.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Bh8qLClGM
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzU4BTNszHt
Each day, I was to report to Naomi no later than 6:30 AM with her specific coffee order and then was given a stack of papers to be reviewed and then filed immediately after in alphabetical order.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUHLLs3GWJ
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3bhgLHX4X
I usually finished up by noon without any time to even piss, let alone fucking breathe!417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJok2aUIpCU
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpvVrvsxtM
Naomi would toss some nasty cold sandwich at me and then instruct me that I had ten minutes to eat before I was to clean the entire top floor which I am pretty sure isn't my god damn job in this position.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kivcLnHJt
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpUjDbwCAa
Most of the days lasted 12-13 hours with her barking orders at me and telling me how stupid I was if I didn't get something right immediately. She would mutter that Kalon was going to regret making me his direct assistant and I'd fuck it up on day one.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ049kvv1mjq
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvIWyP24l6
Once everything was cleaned and I had made sure that every folder was organized correctly, Naomi would briefly give me a rundown of Kalon's schedule and what I was to do and not do.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2v0ifuDKa
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXV05U1R0wY
Basically, I was to be a shadow. Naomi told me that Kalon goes through assistants every single month and she's the only one who has been kept around for almost a year.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1pFX9rtEN
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0cdun9Hhr
I can't lie, it made me extremely nervous. Just looking over Kalon's extravagant life really put things into perspective.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq0lCfsvsQ
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuljwT0fMh
Of course, the business side of things looked to be run through local casinos or clubs, but just having to verify and cross-check expenses made me want to hurl when I'd come across charges in the millions.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBd3ESK1ikk
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2OVZg1AMY
Who the fuck needs to buy four private jets in one month? 417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcovftmWfia
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuCoEmwhNK
Naomi mentioned that Kalon is a very prestigious businessman and some work is to be kept private. I tried to pry answers from her but she called told me to shut up instead.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGI4dCt6Fj
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCfAk4D8g9
I wasn't as dumb as everyone thought though. After moving in here and signing that suspicious contract it was pretty clear the Wolfe organization was doing some dirty, illegal shit and Kalon is the boss of it all.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvR70UFxgKU
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFC2NOrqBY
I just wanted to stay focused on not doing anything to put myself in a position like Carlos who still hasn't shown his face around the estate.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RY5ekgNpy
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4tgDYusWP
Let's just say from that entire week, the only thing I looked forward to was 6:30 pm when monster, bimbo bitch left for the night and I was able to eat some real food and sleep.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfgtUlanQT
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3yOHiYlUV
May had been kind enough to check in on me after her shifts as well. She would sit on the edge of my bed and listen to me ramble about how crazy my day was.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tt0FsK2Ty
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dDcv4BGNl
There were even times she'd let me just sit there and let the tears pour down my face. I felt like an idiot but I was so overwhelmed.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymcwB8frbO
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmgZKsOBfe
I hated Naomi. I hated Kalon for this job. I hated this damn life.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZy83jq0JR
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAqBc5r9C2
Most of all... I fucking missed my brother. My parents.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpzPHhzv24
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n5hrEvyxt
I never pictured my life like this. I just wanted it to be normal again.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzAOhK9qgU
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6W1gOo6KD
I really just wished I had someone my age to be around again. I was starting to miss Landon so much but he wouldn't even look at me.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaaBcFdxsI
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SDG0fu5Us
I'd see him down in the yard practicing tennis with his brother and had tried to get his attention a few times. I usually was just met with an awkward smirk and a glare from Jax who had even tossed me the bird a few times too.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1SzBkoMF8
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HZ5optyGe
Fucking asshole.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpvKFK7DtN
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFEsB4L3rL
"Let's go, Roberta!"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeQoyjbCIn
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaw3kpgY6eG
I groaned loudly and slammed down my blush compact. It wasn't even time for Naomi to harass me yet.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYkmJcrO7O
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFPVT06nXE
"I haven't even had time to get your latte, Naomi," I snapped and ripped the door open.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJzFP2jopH
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5I25FwKsI
Naomi's face was there as expected, already twisted into a snarl as she took me in. Her platinum hair was shockingly down for the day and she was dressed in her usual tight red dress and heels.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELu0POgTGF
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4znDnYyArS
I don't know how she managed to wear those death traps every day but I guess when you are the spawn of Satan, it's easy as hell.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxqxoUyVTd
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPTt3Np6hp
"I am going to be gone today, but you are to report to the office to assist Axel."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstoe9qdKVU
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8J1gBuPCcV
My brows furrowed. "Axel?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2i3UWALoFo
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFi25fKQ6C
She rolled her eyes and tapped away on her phone. "Don't you know anything? I've told you Axel is Kalon's cousin. He takes over when Kalon is out of town."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxJUpKW2h6
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KrE5pGUXr
"Okay...so what am I doing today then?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tojzDpkDx
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeCXSSY8rO
She looked up at me, annoyed. "Just shut up and walk."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZmW7uSXdk
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHFjLob48S
I sighed and tossed my hair up into the best ponytail I could manage as Naomi snapped her gum and clicked away on her cellphone behind me.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFRa7lw1YL
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKO6CPGZ97
When we approached the office, I realized it was cracked open and there was a distant voice on the inside who seemed to be joking around with someone on the phone.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAY0ccF2vIA
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjIQu3k3Hy
I walked up to it slowly and pressed my palm against the wood. Naomi must've grown irritated with me though because she pushed me aside and rushed in.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwX1GIfeR2g
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGUODW1EjF
"Naomi! What's up my favorite blonde bitch?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTw5eTnPUgt
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FZr9kwayf
My jaw dropped and I looked over at Naomi, waiting to see how she'd deal with him. Instead, she stuck her tongue out like a child and plopped down in her favorite chair.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrA4skKIdH
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheS2AsqZQw
"Oh, new friends?"
I entered the office and looked up to find a man I hadn't met before. He was stunning and looked a lot like Kalon, minus the excessive tattoos and muscles.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwK9316lGu
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShIDMgLXJd
He was tall and dressed in a sleek dark blue suit with dark hair brushing along the edges of his shoulders. He had a toothpick placed between his full lips and a smile playing on his mouth as we came closer.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡki4h1td9BH
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5TEbHTMCo
"Nice to meet you, sir," I said politely and approached him.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvWynzoSYw
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJsDFAi2KS
He reached out and shook my hand. "Axel."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3GJisOCDU
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13CiKEdNKu
I nodded and met his mismatched eyes. One a brilliant blue color and the other nearly pitch black.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyt7nl0SWZ
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQe7krWMH0
"The girls love it." He laughed.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qfKjusdDr
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dYfjbTxsJ
I blinked. "What?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0HnDzK6Jx
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriTaWdHW1M
He smirked and pointed towards his eyes. "It makes me look mysterious."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw41QA4sQ4j
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ936YbIliY3
"Doesn't make up for you being a gigantic douche, "Naomi muttered. "Where's Ramirez, by the way?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZCFo5M6ER
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8QQEu9ePA
Just as she spoke the dark-haired girl I had met the day I met with Kalon rushed into the room like she was in trouble. Her hands clasped securely in front of her waist and her eyes on the ground.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOJ1thhz2K
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8oKikJdcD
"Ma'am?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxVIUOvUFE
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFljEGC44XK
"Normal order, please. Get on it." Naomi barked out.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFpK5T0WDg
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fk2DQiSiH
I watched in silence as the girl nodded and left immediately. Axel shook his head at the scene unfolding and hopped up onto the edge of the desk, knocking several papers out of place.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiR24aGRtcD
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeezDM1fj7
"Oh, no!" I said instinctively and moved to fix them. 417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaObFVvXlk
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSiXcRBXdb
Axel's hand grasped mine. "Slow down there, babe." I looked up at him confused and felt my cheeks heat up from his intense gaze.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMP7FboyL0
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7LJnEPpVC
His fingers slowly stroked the back of my hand as he turned it palm side up and trailed his nail along the lines there.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFH39lyrby
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamk18maEyX
"Beautiful hands."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy84r70ZlVN
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz99J73yHlJ
"T-thank you?" I stammered and pulled away.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCnP1qJZXv
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqNrUO3nDK
Axel's eyes continued to watch me as I hurried back towards my usual spot next to Naomi so I could await her demands for the day.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlds0IV5ki
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL67rFiwNLa
"Axel, I'm leaving. This one is Roberta, Kalon wants her to be the number one apparently," She scoffed. "Don't know why considering she has been a huge disaster already."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzbFdvcS4d
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkH3f6VQER
"Play nice," Axel scolded and looked at me apologetically. "You have somewhere better to be anyway."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDk56odw6p
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrlKo0Usxw
"That I do," Naomi sighed and looked over at me with a snarky grin. "Good luck."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoE8ikAEHi
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFARZEugZ2
Axel and I watched as the blonde demon exited the room, chatting away happily on her cellphone as she did.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSAmM3rKbr
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc65uxNr0C8
He shook his head and smiled, "Sorry, about Naomi, I wish Kalon would hire women who aren't secret succubi."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6tvzU6Kqi
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡph7VWT1wvs
I shrugged, "I guess it's all part of the job."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJK5Vbnfqf5
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaRgtwgt9Z
"I suppose," He grinned crookedly. "Would you like a drink?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5HKVKapQP
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMO7VhcxupG
"Am I suppose to be drinking?" I chuckled awkwardly. "I kind of got myself into trouble with your cousin on that one."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljoZY9u7cq
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOFQLw3YlE
"Ahh, you are the party girl?" He teased and fetched a bottle of champagne. "Kalon sure was pissed about that."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTEqR7cjIN
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohfxVk4YQb
My cheeks flushed. "He told you?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBrCDEFBnV
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvwkEAkJzy
Axel nodded as he poured the glasses, "He didn't shut up about it for about a week. Caused some trouble between the brothers."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9KzrQ7ZIM
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmYoLPlNeD
"And Carlos?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68lTy7b6YJ
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlA5c4NLrNT
"Yeah...Carlos." His lips tightened as he said it.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv3BO3RUY3
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgjfkw5Don
"Where did he go?" I pressed. I wanted to know as much as I possibly could and Axel seemed like he might be my best bet at this point.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmqHJZ1Uj8
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWfr0C9OTC
"Terminated." He said simply and handed me my glass.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftIMyUAgcf
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOhTmS1FNM
"Really? I thought this was a forever thing?" I asked and took a sip.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEuwBTrN99
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGDy1VAMq0
"Depends on the situation," He sighed and trailed his fingertip along the edge. "You ask a lot of questions."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiK7CCNIxy
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3gZPJPbod
"Curious, I guess."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmo524bjgTN
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquE15wWySG
"You know what they say about that," He winked and took a drink. "Wouldn't want to see a pretty face like you end up in too much trouble."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpYsE1x2Am
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebyH06WBG1
"Oh, I'll surprise you."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDdG7cNDhd
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJacqltEMSX
He smirked. "I don't doubt that, Ms. Quinn."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY2p7E5Y4P
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaBtBjVafK
I met his unique eyes again and felt my cheeks heat up like wildfire. "U-uh, so what are we doing today, sir?"417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrScuwFXpH
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpu31e7v3J
He shook his head. "Axel is fine."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZCJJES2nL
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfEJnglgLB
"Sorry...sir, I mean Axel!" I stuttered.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkmixtusFY
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfkqsFn9lK
He just laughed and tossed me a stack of folders. "Have at it, princess."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2Nd6Z5Wq3
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiAUsW3Txm
"Just this?" I said as I flipped through it. Naomi usually dumped enough paperwork on me to last half of my day.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4UCqwwTzL
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmezAHGB86
"That's it...I think you deserve a short day," Axel grinned and moved to sit on the edge of the desk again, our knees nearly touching."You seem like you work really hard."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdcX6gBTbY
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFXX74hQGt
"With Naomi, there are no breaks or days off," I said lowly. "I'm completely fine working the full day."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PchwpVdGO
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKo06SJkpc
"Don't worry about it, I got your back." He reassured and stuck his pinky out. "I promise."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGF1eXcKOZv
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVSOpgFEvX
I looked up at him, staring into his eyes as our pinky's locked together like children swearing on a pact. I half-expected him to pull away quickly but instead, he locked onto my hand and pulled me closer as he leaned down.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbozyZWUS2
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNE6Ky5QKA
The distance between us was nearly non-existent now and all I could smell was the mix of alcohol and cologne on him. My chest was tightening and all I could think of was my first meeting with Kalon.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVq6FyIfmtn
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwPHz399Ra
"I like you," Axel said lowly and ran his fingers over mine. "You are different."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hxbn5BmF9
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIrGlNquxI
"T-thank you." I stammered, my heart racing now.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ64aChfSlW
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6tdLDcsgl
He chuckled and licked his lower lip. "I'd like to take you to dinner."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9yqLRAdsk
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6N5oshmYE
My breath caught. "U-uh...I'm...I'm not sure... uh."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl01ggqTjc4
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwU2ybD1PW
"Just think about it," He said and used his free hand to grab a pen. "Call me when you do."417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPs27ClpAB
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLamcaXsvy
I watched in silence as he scrabbled his phone number on my palm, his intense gaze never leaving mine as he did.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qpu9cPjtY
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFEUoeK2uJ
"Oh...ok..." I started out, unsure of what to say.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjXFDa25av
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiA1XqsX55
"Get to work, Ms. Quinn." He said playfully and pushed off the desk.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7zgagq9QC
417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwqznC8MQL
I sat there in complete disbelief as the folders in my hands felt like they were now hundreds of pounds.417Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvCG6I0oBj
