Almost a month had gone by since the attack at the casino. Kalon hadn't set foot inside of the estate since he ordered his guards to take me back from the safe house and left without another word.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzHPSS2BGZ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMJBPfskXR
I wasn't sure what to really make of him at this point or the feeling he caused when he was around. I couldn't help the thoughts that filled my head with some sick fantasy I had of being with my boss. The man who flipped my life upside down...and very possibly the reason why my brother was murdered in the first place.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡra1j5uaF7A
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrH8rNtIRUe
As the days passed, I did my best to keep distracted since Naomi wasn't around to boss me. May had kept me great company and even allowed me to assist with some of her daily chores.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ932Oa9jRs2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9dFnYzDNj
Keeping busy with her had helped me try to keep my mind off of Kalon and that moment between us in his hotel room. I wasn't sure what his motive was, but all I knew is he was confusing as hell. He always seemed so cryptic and cold.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uROgsvUpr
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv1nHUXOeT
And then the next he was unleashing a desire inside of me like nothing I've felt before.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6ke1067dK
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEoLznR1FL
I just wanted to keep him out of my head and focus on anything else. Thankfully, I got lucky one day and was able to finally get Landon to talk to me.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM82JNekq1z
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZoXiS60e3
One day, I noticed him outside by the tennis fields so I took it upon myself to corner him and force him to listen to my apology. It went better than I had expected and he admitted he had really missed having me around.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquzrm10lju
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMQtcWbOeF
To make it even better, big brother Jax was even starting to warm up to me. I'd catch him giving me sneaky little glares when he'd enter the kitchen and find his brother and I howling over some dumb ass Youtube video we'd find. I could tell he wanted to keep me away from potentially causing any trouble for Landon with the boss, but the blow-up from him never came.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19xdIoAHzD
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXxRWhy9kE
It was nice having Landon around again and the newcomers who recently arrived. Liam, Samuel, and Finn were the three newest additions to the home who apparently had a history with Landon and his brother. They were all older and had the same rich, pretty boy vibes as Jax did. Despite the manor turning into a literal frat house, I was grateful to have some entertainment.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdnDFNHyoO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuzCnKBQCH
"So what are we doing today?" I nudged Landon's side.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg2qiS3Zr8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8CMtXoTMe
He eyed me carefully. "Same as always...right?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYu0OZqFZt
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8eKuJ8GiN
I sighed and leaned onto my elbows. "Right."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uNKN30v9v
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPVzGfr0hQ
"Don't be so down, Robbie. You know the weather right now is perfect to take advantage of the pool. "May said cheerfully, setting out sandwiches on the counter.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0EYBnX1y3
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpUyHP9mnQ
"I know, I just wish we had more to do," I whined pitifully.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1EBOxWp5w
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHMft5W7lH
"When don't you complain?" Jax scoffed as he entered the kitchen. He picked up a sandwich from the island and took a bite. "Aren't there plenty of chores for you to do?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLbRxL88lH
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRoLzDa4WY
"Okay, mom."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56891PvRVN
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbEnFWZ6eo
He rolled his eyes and continued to walk past the three of us with his mouth stuffed with cheese and ham as he left again.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TtTSiHitS
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05MJESgtO2
That was usually how our brief interactions went. I'd get some kind of insult usually and then he'd disappear. Whatever attraction Jax had for me, in the beginning, was long gone after the club night.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KzBpA8wHo
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWVgrZihyh
I reached out to grab a sandwich from the tray on the counter but stopped when a hand knocked mine away with a painful slap and snatched it.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhe5qvPrvf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFfT01dDfl
"Hey!" I snapped and rubbed the back of it. "I was grabbing that."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreKPJAiDvA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEnuQydsY2
"Too slow, Quinn." Samuel smiled widely and took a large bite. His dark eyes were shielded by a college baseball cap that contained his wild, ginger locks.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO79xIITwBy
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsL4FKcy73
Out of the new boys to the group, Samuel had certainly been the most annoying so far. Each day was met with him causing a fistfight with the others over dumb shit like someone taking the last beer or starting some argument over a football team. He usually made up for it with his sick sense of humor and crude sex stories.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkboQDHtkFR
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWzfK4LHtY
"Ladies go first," May scolded him and he smiled sheepishly.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtLTNHGBen
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkE1BFa8JVL
"Sorry."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEF68lKW80G
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqIgNaoDwS
"It's fine," I muttered and finally picked my sandwich from the plate. "Where are Finn and Liam?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjk3C2QMNN
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXCDZlU26y
He shrugged, "Probably on the way. I know Liam was on the phone with his girlfriend."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMcGJMf6QV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0egNcm6TON
This was news to me. "Liam? Liam has a girlfriend?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpg8GeGZ2E
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7MtF6Sk0N
"I'm not that bad looking."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO2o7ycjvs
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcsIWBkH2N
All of us turned to see Liam walking into the room with Finn. He could definitely pass as another Jax. He had the same light blonde hair with a slight curl and green eyes. The only difference was he was at least 5 years older and had tattoos scattered on each arm. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1h9riYHL34
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZG8cOJW1i
Finn was the youngest of them and so far the sweetest. He was a tall, lanky kid with black shaggy hair and a weird scar over his left eye. He was the only one who ever stayed behind to help with cleaning up after everyone else.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMC1ArQBQC
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkPJsH388Q
"Keep telling yourself that," Samuel howled and Liam tossed a chip at him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfl7vQ9Day
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0G6eQn1x3
May slapped him on the back, "No messes!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgvmUWjZcV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdw55J5P64
"Sorry, May." They said in unison. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GzPQ92Bwk
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFRurJIL9l
Samuel looked up at me as he took another bite. "So, Quinn, have you been to the family club yet?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBTV4kwRpi
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJcWAYSuhH
"Uh...the what?" I laughed.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeT40hCFXv
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrskrOHQNvh
He rolled his eyes, "The main club the family owns? Girls, alcohol, dr-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa7WwOVdEV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugomee9F0A
Landon cut him off. "Robbie has already had her share of club adventures. Mr. Wolfe doesn't want her getting involved."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslOPHXuGbP
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4Q3MlUw50
"I heard all about her little adventure that got Carlos-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbgU8XULVR
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCUCfpBI2v
"Can you just shut the fuck up?" Landon snapped harshly.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6d1a1l2H1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJpY9yoKwU
Samuel glared at him but didn't say another word. I was completely taken back by Landon's display of anger. He had never been one to stand up for himself and just always seemed to mold to whatever was going on.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYR9rakRRN
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRWyM9HY0i
"Landon? What's wrong?" I whispered to him and he shook his head.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisLGCMYaX7
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLtJZt5Thx
"I don't want to get into it."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYXHpKkNjp
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDy8ITKyGOm
"Don't keep things a secret," I sighed and picked at my crust. "I'm not going to push you into anything, but I also deserve to know what goes on around this place."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO73Nc6x8vf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXLM6cIQAt
He sat silently and stared at his hands in his lap. Something about his expression felt so unsettling and I wasn't sure if it was because Carlos had been brought up or because of all the trouble I had caused him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7x7kkKEwp
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFId7Fv5gBq
I slid off the stool and walked out towards the balcony. The weather was amazing today, the lawn was a luscious green and the breeze had a slight chill. It wasn't humid and sticky like it had been over the past few weeks.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2ZnQMJt6M
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvP2PvFtkDU
I understood I would always be kept out of the inner workings of the organization. It didn't take a genius to piece together that I was living under the watch of a mafia boss. I had signed away my freedom to live a life of secrecy and security forever. There were days were I regretted ever signing the contract and other days I was grateful because I did have so much more than before.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CWJiuwCWX
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZF1IRUiH7
I couldn't entirely blame my brother for becoming involved with them. Before he died, we were starting to see an increase in some of the money he was bringing home. I tried to not question him too much but had chopped it up to him selling larger quantities of drugs.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1igmM7FZss
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEBZ4encjd
He tried really hard to keep that part of him a secret. He knew I wasn't happy with his decisions, but I knew we needed the money to survive. We were barely afloat and without Josh, I would've ended up homeless if I didn't sign my life away.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPjMUhyW6s
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKDxB26PY2
Kalon Wolfe may be a cold, heartless monster, but I couldn't find it in me to hate him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepWvAlE0HV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDOzudUG3r
"What's going on, Quinn?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYp1PPTz4lf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM88d0gq3TI
I looked back at Samuel as he stepped onto the balcony next to me and lit up a cigarette.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFbarVKbMn
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9FKZblYym
"Just enjoying the weather."
He inhaled deeply. "Has Landon always been so protective of you?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhZc88l9YS
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPY4L3jt6M
I looked at him, confused. "Protective?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjb3aaSPYn
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4sofHWJfB
"Yeah," He blew out a string of smoke rings. "Seems like he doesn't want you to know anything."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBGyJ0EHTJ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QJ0SSvzFA
"Well, I'm not an idiot about what goes on around here, but Landon is just trying to keep out of trouble.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ru7YWLMTG
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQq1cWzS4Xo
He nodded and took another drag. "I heard you got him into some deep shit with his brother and the boss."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlNgTZMEeQ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjdsYBwMld
"I was just trying to have some fun," I admitted and leaned onto the railing. "I wasn't trying to cause problems, but it got out of hand."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8BEAoftwJ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP5l0YJTVm
"Well, if you ever want to have real fun, I'm your man." Samuel laughed and smiled widely. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjkmE6mjAe
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTrtXUlNKo
"How so?" I asked, eyeing him curiously.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToP64L8OOd
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrLN9qWlAu
"The boys and I frequent a club downtown pretty often. It's basically just for the family and run by the organization only. You don't have to worry about causing a scene or putting the Wolfe name at risk."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKqaKYEKBR
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMMuf1W55s
This was news to me. "Anybody can go under contract then?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8UdwELtEI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2rELiQleP
"Yep," He grinned crookedly at me. "Even you, Quinn."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnyDKxduI3
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSxBJfjJ9f
"I don't want to piss anyone off, especially Ka- I mean, Mr. Wolfe."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OZHGSbw7b
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2DIbu215l
He rolled his eyes, "Kalon isn't even here and I'm sure Axel would be more than happy to keep an eye out for you. If shit goes south with the boss man, he'll get you out of it considering he's his right hand."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYw85CGf8Xi
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIosWHrUqZJ
"He's here?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQC4B2dugg
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhr4ImAvoV
"Mhmm," He said and blew out a heavy smoke cloud. "He got in last night and I'm sure he'd love to escort you there."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrhlTbV9yq
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXhxp8OlSB
"What makes you say that?" I laughed.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Yrcmy6425
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXx7ho1qI8q
He looked me up and down. "Don't be stupid."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTUKLinfxs
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnluHogh42Q
"Won't he be pissed though if he hears I'm there? Especially, after what happened the last time."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRfXYuey91
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqRHoNgqZc
"As I said, Axel has his ways," He winked. "Don't worry about Mr. Wolfe, you deserve to have fun too."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOREvS85oG
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1etYPuQUrt
I nodded and looked back inside where Landon was sitting. He was staring back at me and seemed to have been watching the two of us the entire time.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw26MGBdqP
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiu5Ibun4m3
"Don't worry about the kid," Samuel said when he noticed my gaze. "Jax is just protective of him."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTWCE3WZJ3
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLA8jRFXJRL
"Okay," I muttered and looked back up at him. "When can we go?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoD8NMbqPZ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jwQWdT63w
_419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXiUgflD5S

"Keep up, Quinn!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBBSEkY7C9
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ybLkw0TgJ
I felt my ankle snap to the side as I tried to pick up my speed and silently cursed Samuel under my breath. I don't know why I decided to wear death trap shoes again, but I knew I would be paying for it by the end of the night.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcykAfQwE60
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXhsDZEDbV
"You could walk slower!" I huffed at him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgI4ZP58bW1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTkYJTHTz8
Samuel had decided to rope Finn and Liam into our trouble tonight and the plan was to meet Axel at the front so no problems were getting inside. Apparently, the club was Wolfe territory only aside from a few partners Kalon had close ties with.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZuHkSEDvn
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9vZJsjvXY
Liam kicked a rock back in my direction. "Pick better shoes, princess."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eJJNj3t7w
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUoyYhWokK
"Dick!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZffE7EwWU
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvKe5Eyzeg
The four of us made our way up to what looked like an abandoned factory warehouse. There were no cars and from what I could see and hear, everything looked to be quiet and dark.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTNciN0ZX2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEiDqm4gVB
"Are we at the right place?" I asked as we rounded the corner.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4fCA3sVS5
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPybfV1X8T
"Yes, Quinn," Samuel muttered as we came to a stop in front of a door. We watched as he rapped against the metal door several times.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBSeYuX9VK
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxCCdCQYdY
A little piece of metal slid back at the top of the door. Flashing strobe lights pooled through along with heavy EDM playing in the background.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN6GyWx7fo
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7fI1z4rTj
"Where's Axel?" Samuel said and flashed what looked like an ID.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqPABkQfLq
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlAe08ULyB
The opening shut again and a series of locks could be heard unlocking before the door groaned open and a very familiar face stepped out onto the steps. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiR7W0o4UB
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JLIYznJVj
Axel smiled widely and pushed back his dark locks from his face. A five o'clock shadow covered his jaw and he was dressed in a simple white tee and jeans.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9adF8veNt
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRLMaAoaHd
It was weird to see anyone who worked with Kalon dressed in something so normal.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CavV8azgA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpZciPIGbl
"Ahh! Look who you brought with you!" He cheered and reached out to grasp my hands. "How have you been?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GlQea7JoR
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ihNqdcsd1
I blushed a bit when I caught his mismatched eyes roaming over my red velvet dress. "I've been okay, just working."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdibfRmjwAw
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI5spCiSmA
"Kalon did say you were doing wonderful," He praised and popped a toothpick between his lips. "I bet working for him has been an adventure already."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJjxqcBp2q
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuI8Z1vZMT
"You could say that."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbppJ0kfji8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFlPVnGTDj
Axel grinned unevenly and brought my palm up to kiss it. "I'm so glad you are here."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Y3igKpvga
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzibNElvyL
My stomach turned with anticipation as his lips brushed my skin softly. His dark hair hung loosely in front of his eyes. He looked so much better than I had remembered.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzD0siPOQHx
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yfJ0YgoD8
"Me too."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb0alPMsx1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlit6NyKMpq
"Alright, kids," Samuel fake gagged. "Let's get inside because daddy needs a drink."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngM7lMwpIB
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxr62iO7Gi
Axel stepped back to pull the door open and let the four of us step inside. You never would've known that we were walking into a club until the doors opened.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZu2XHNXJI6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwayEZ2t7n8
It looked just like a normal strip club. The front was lined with a bar and there was a stage in the middle of the room where several girls were dancing topless. Men were crowded around the stages, tossing money and slamming back shots.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbExcflz6P
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FDJ6pCTAD
I could already make out a few familiar faces from some of the men I would see come in and out of the home or chauffering Kalon around when he wasn't in the mood to drive one of his sports cars.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqBjyGIsaC
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn0OFNrIwo
"This is Kalon's?" I said to Axel and he nodded.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6pJBhVNds
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ9nWig4cd
"His dad owned a lot of businesses before everything was handed down after he passed away. He used to primarily invest in clubs and casinos because the money was good and easy to conceal."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvslP3rE9N
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz5rXXuu9Y
"Money laundering?" I laughed.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡje30xEKZka
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgxbuxykhW
"Smart girl," He winked. "It's just business, doll. I'm sure by now you've been able to piece together the kind of business Kalon enjoys involving himself in."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsKNN8WoJI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiSghpuO8E
"Seems like a lot to handle."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLijwuKHgC
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0TCfiWgrK
"Yeah, but that's why you get guys like me involved." He winked and playfully bumped my shoulder. "Want a drink?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDyI5xN0lb
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1jcE1RxZe
"Who am I to say no?" I laughed and he pulled me along by my hand. The lights cast shadows across our faces as the strobe danced to the beat. Girls on the stage were now crawling across the stage in tiny panties as men hungrily tossed money at them.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmM3r4jbLV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOozaSFSwt
"Two!" Axel yelled over the bass to the bartender. The two of us slid onto the stools together and leaned in close. "I'm really glad you came tonight, Robbie. I've been thinking about you a lot."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWFS0dw21X
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiQ1uYGNEg
"Is that so?" I teased and took the shot glass from him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4Ok3a9u7c
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKnMv3dyyo
We clinked the tiny cups together and knocked them back. The brown liquid burned my throat as it trickled down. Axel smirked a bit at my reaction and signaled for two more.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4uOslMpRk
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtQycYZBj2
"Why didn't you text me?" He asked and handed me the second shot.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cLQ8aHolO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEd8hzTRFZ8
My cheeks blushed. "I'm sorry...I just-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRv50MmYbA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNPCEMFCxd
He put his hand up. "Don't apologize, Robbie. I know I came on strong and it's weird considering the position I'm in."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6KtEDlKLa
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eYE8fsNxn
I nodded a bit and looked out at the club floor where I could see the boys hollering at the naked girls on the stage.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWeSv7cOoA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZogOeRPxcm
Axel continued, "I just want my intentions to be clear. I know I seem like a real lady killer, but I'm a gentleman at heart and very shy." He winked playfully and knocked his glass against mine again.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqVqlZS4BG
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4rCbXHOIf
"A true gentleman you say?" I mimicked him and knocked the second one back. My head was already rushing from the alcohol hitting so fast.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HHi5mwAYu
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpIfcWMFdM
"Another?" Axel piped and motioned for the bartender.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYpVLoJrbu
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiLF3k70od
I laughed and shook my head. "Are you trying to get me trashed? I don't want to get myself into too much trouble with your cousin."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5R4he47q7
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BFUFqOw0t
He rolled his eyes and tinked his glass on mine again. "Let me handle him."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeANz2Wneyv
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdGXcUZN9n
"Are the two of you close?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYhWdYadvN
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBv0eIVJ02G
He shrugged a bit, "I wouldn't say we are necessarily close, but really we don't have any other family. Kalon's been kind of on his own since he was a teenager, all of the family that does exist resides in Russia and they just tend to keep him at an arms distance."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4cY8SYd9K
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGIuXMCaxB
"What about you?" 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCiohCRumx
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZKrZSkMDw
"Nothing interesting," He sighed and leaned back against the bar. "I've been an orphan since my parents died when I was ten, so I stayed with an aunt before Kalon's father took me in at sixteen. I kind of bounced around for a while though."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8B0Fr8FXH8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZ8XSh08Nb
"Do you enjoy working with him?" I eyed him curiously.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6emuHWNpCR
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJrXNMahvn
"The money is nice and I don't really have to step in unless necessary, so I just get to drink and party whenever I want."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFZPq4sJY4
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXPsNxWdXw
"Sounds like the life." 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEGiJKS2W7
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIfyg6ZBSW
"It's not all it seems," He murmured and let his eyes wander over me again. "Sometimes you get really lonely."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TWN2I5HmD
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWhEBW5hrU
I stared back at Axel and felt a new level of confidence take over me. My head was absolutely wrecked from the liquor and he is one smoking hot man.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk5eqxqdHR
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwjM5tVWEY
I leaned in closer to him and smirked. "You poor thing."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgydMEhc3u
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyW20q4tyi
He continued to let his eyes slowly undress me layer by layer. I could feel my insides squirming like mad and my legs clenched from the uncomfortable desire building at my core.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTPM7fF6m1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjTh0gBPbT
"Want to get out of here?" He whispered lowly. His lips just inches away from my own.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48H12tD4OA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XnPiyEWZh
I started to nod and slid off the stool but was suddenly stopped when a girl I've never met before came running up to us with Liam.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8BFRmJMcz
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQs6K7Fk4bg
"Oh my gosh, you are stunning!" She slurred out and tossed her arms around me. "I'm so glad to see another girl in the group."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cCish3XRY
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhCwPbEZTC
"I'm sorry?" I laughed as she pulled away. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriTSuxmzIH
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtXnw6EgjS
She was breath-taking and honestly seemed a little out of Liam's league. Her eyes were bright blue which contrasted beautifully against her midnight black hair. I noticed she was dressed in just a skimpy black lingerie set and heels.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2sbVtenWL
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vdshsZea8
"I'm sorry! I'm Liam's girlfriend, Maria, it's so nice to meet you. The boys mentioned you a few times, but I just never have a chance to go to the actual manor." She gushed and looked up at Liam with a girly grin.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sxkFHN20U
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiFltcBg3r
"You work for Kalon Wolfe?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMl1cvtvb2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFsdQ4G94L
She nodded eagerly. "I do! All of us girls that dance here are directly employed through him. Are you not one of his girls? I haven't seen you here so I wasn't-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzVqnf3i8Z
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1nXsRP2Z0
Axel cut her off, "She's not a dancer, doll."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjre0Mo7dj
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNbXUQmTqo
Maria looked over at him and the girly grin disappeared immediately. I looked curiously between the two of them as the intense staredown continued before she dropped the topic.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W0yhWVjVv
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGHGj3fWbV
"Anyways, it is a pleasure to meet you! If you ever want to dance, feel free to join us. The money is great and the men would love you." She said and reached out to hug me again.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZw4pGpHIOZ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2NQUKH9Cp
"O-oh, well, thank you. It was nice meeting you, Maria."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQrx9TVHef
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tP6jSqK2L
We watched as she walked back towards the stage with Liam. The boys were all still crowded around the same spot as before, drooling over the girls who decided to give them a sliver of attention.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfN1rRUAF7c
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5S0C6FxGi
"What was that about?" I asked Axel, noticing he was still staring at them too.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJzIweaME8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9swuhE3rW
He shook his head. "Don't worry about it."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BOHlHbbos
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaVmbDObm4
"Seems like Maria isn't a fan?" I teased and leaned against the bar. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ7Hi1H0Qa
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0NoGPUPzj
"Probably because she's my ex-girlfriend."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6AjYVzb5Z
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALp0wkqi46
My jaw dropped. "You dated Maria?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXkBKUlxG6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjtp1EwnbX
"Am I too ugly for her?" He scoffed and ordered two more drinks.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezN5YUFsD2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZSRG3DWMZ
"No, I just would've thought with Lia-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTRviVNQHb
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIoFxgSMHC
He stopped me. "Some of them have been around for a while, but not staying with Kalon. There are a lot of people involved in this, Quinn. More than your little mind could comprehend."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7wu44PyY8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DiTwoTa1K
"Try me.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yTaA0KY7O
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjdCULl1c1
He smirked at me and looked behind him. "Maybe another time."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc1keF25Uz
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkkIwQLaPC
"Quinn! Get your ass up there!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKr1vjsoPS
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fy3Td40oy
I spun around on my chair to see the boys were waving me down and pointing to the stage. Apparently, they were inviting anyone who wanted to dance onto the stage and I, of course, was nominated considering I was the only girl that wasn't a stripper.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXLBGrsEc2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3sAoLPiWx
"No!No!" I waved back at them and laughed.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bHzzQVos6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7y2T9EQPd
Finn rushed up to me and hooked me by the arm. "Please! Maria is up there and she just will not shut up about you."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJPJHV65tf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9cYaNnXI5
I rolled my eyes. "Finn, I can't fucking dance. Look at me, I have nothing to show and no rhythm."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ar17Fr6pJ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76moVedwzC
He looked me up and down a little too long before a weird-ass smile crept across his face. "You got this, Quinn! I know you are always down for something fun."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmV2O0D5Xs
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxrbXdxIf8
"You're so lucky I am drunk as hell."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78LHlOzKCz
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElBwz2gGPp
I walked up to the stage where Maria was dancing wildly all over the stage to some pop music with about five other, half-naked girls. They all looked to be completely hammered and the men were just eating them up.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIEDezCA7p
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbVC8fjy5P
Maria pulled me up onto the stage next to her and placed her hands on my hips as we ground together. I could hear the guys around us hollering and shouting out nasty remarks to us as we continued to move together. The strobe lights danced on our skin and lit up the stage around us in bright flashes.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAJVYKTGZ5
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3LkxvP30k
I could barely focus on her face or keep my balance, but it felt so right to be moving and every part of my being was alive.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTtdTwwnhJ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVAzWglKWe
"Take it off, baby!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFExkzUZL2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cZsFSRzRN
Maria giggled and griped the pole next to us before twirling around it with one leg and dropping to the floor in a full split.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyD3hmp3Xg9
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoKNz77mbB
I grabbed the pole above her and did my best to sway around the pole as seductively as I could manage. She slid up between my arms and moved her body against mine slowly as the two of us synchronized our movements.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N0rY3AW0t
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfBDNwt4kY
"Come on, Quinn! Show us what you are hiding."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FJvVOEjT4
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AmgrJ2MFC
I peered out into the dark crowd and realized Axel was the one who was shouting at me now. Even in the poor light, I could easily make out the sly-ass grin playing on his face.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKfWW1JbVl
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAIholoF6O
"Fuck it!" I muttered and reached down to pull my dress off.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOE1HYFmgO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVV167P7ri
I felt myself start to stumble to the side before Maria helped pull it the rest of the way off and tossed it to the side. The two of us giggled together and started to dance around the pole again.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS3Xl3FHLu
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnchCkxToad
It felt so weird actually stripping in front of so many people down to just my bra and panties. My mind was screaming at me to stop, but another part of me felt so fucking exhilarated.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LQRvDb9xr
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQscmmHUEh1
Maria moved to the floor and started crawling along the stage to collect bills. I decided this would be a good time to really go all in and twirled around the pole again before reaching back to unfasten my bra.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeLsYE5f04
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb9Ascb2IL
I felt so good. I felt so alive and so-419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt79T6Uwm4S
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNDpuhtTIy
*BANG* *BANG* 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSpTyqYH1W
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLi2yhxfWj
Everyone started to scream as the sound of gunfire sounded loudly throughout the club. Chaos erupted as the girls on the stage started to run towards a backdoor and several people around us were already pulling out guns of their own.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lp9qy0aJ6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfACSVbRZn
"Turn the fucking music off now!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVslYBc0J85
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwNYyx9hgj
My heart stopped when I heard his voice boom over the music. Everybody stopped moving immediately. The lights turned all the way back on and I felt him staring me down before I even found him charging at me.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uy9oTQ9RA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNe12hlDqO
"Hey man, li-" Axel started but Kalon pushed him roughly to the side. His steel-grey eyes were locked on me and he looked furious.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV14WbZaViF
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LarWtLeig
I grabbed my dress off the floor and tried to pull it over my head just as I felt his hand grab me by the arm and yank me off the stage.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVqm3mXiVF
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrUItMGttk
"Get dressed now," He snapped roughly and shoved me into a booth. "The club is closed. Everyone needs to be out of here in ten minutes."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrEcjNUsqM
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ82H3NYNsD
Nobody said a word or even dared to argue with him. I pulled my dress back onto my body and watched in silence as everyone started to exit as quickly as they could before Kalon decided to fire off any additional bullets.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMEghq63IZ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4vHIGSV55
I looked up at him and held my breath. Kalon looked down at me with rage very clear on his features. He looked so beautiful but was the scariest I had ever seen him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO50EUnnTz
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMitDrNEzGR
"Get up and go."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtB1mRRKPOI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgwdyuQjTQ
I nodded and stood. I felt so low and defeated. I had fucked up again.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIK9Rr6g6Z
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMpbBJbQB9
I'm so fucking dead.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXDOm0dQF1
