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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDQ110pQe7
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2eUz0sY0I
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65soli5CT5
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFRuRP4jlZ
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmJt7UTbPn
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjmCJhuYPR
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wWF5wzdlz
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIgS9YY601
And then the next he was unleashing a desire inside of me like nothing I've felt before.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPagSarbf8l
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZveZM2O0LT
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof4E8UTVMv
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43VeSDDLnE
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrFfD1Ihu8
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHfJJ4l00t
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESJY53SU5p
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eqfiFiOmU
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFiSc4Zc87
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VMixtLjqa
"So what are we doing today?" I nudged Landon's side.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62MT97ksIZ
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscVT4udQXY
He eyed me carefully. "Same as always...right?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x0lMBdOsa
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSB7wPkDBbW
I sighed and leaned onto my elbows. "Right."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFmI82LfPz
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfK3Y868KDR
"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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQRFuqIrfV
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8gvWSlktQ
"I know, I just wish we had more to do," I whined pitifully.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaQbrBIfUS
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzA1YpW3r4
"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?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCCaooEEOE
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIOFzosVul
"Okay, mom."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5eAPqvChy
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l6s699A9F
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawR7oKDB1b
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIMGphZ294
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOxhfM6Ifw
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGYwQgER3o
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVUp5E9QER
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T0xXv7wRI
"Hey!" I snapped and rubbed the back of it. "I was grabbing that."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmoT7Dfrr6
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2mI46a8uA
"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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiI1kZoFI1w
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3PFeZbpst
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSLONauq0p
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzmhFzKfLz
"Ladies go first," May scolded him and he smiled sheepishly.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rj9Zb9DdS
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKSrYbZpVh
"Sorry."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl892TN0rTV
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8IFaS1S3r
"It's fine," I muttered and finally picked my sandwich from the plate. "Where are Finn and Liam?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMOGcPom50
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkTdy9usPu
He shrugged, "Probably on the way. I know Liam was on the phone with his girlfriend."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrluW10KYda
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaUKbQTUeP
This was news to me. "Liam? Liam has a girlfriend?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkR84CRoURu
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCWOcHgjWa
"I'm not that bad looking."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaf4mSpuFZr
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvqs59Slrx
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. 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGVKoIByx0
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NmdDYn01K
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFu4fiH4DJ
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxJ5scAtsO
"Keep telling yourself that," Samuel howled and Liam tossed a chip at him.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4go6bHBw1d
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYh7fOsbNl0
May slapped him on the back, "No messes!"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ52wsnYHt
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ii2Fa66aV
"Sorry, May." They said in unison. 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLpMjAauAj
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3yfuDNkIW
Samuel looked up at me as he took another bite. "So, Quinn, have you been to the family club yet?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejiSU0jaN7
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80HlBsV00F
"Uh...the what?" I laughed.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW32yWtpd48
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPiWMzceAI
He rolled his eyes, "The main club the family owns? Girls, alcohol, dr-"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIDLEZXjJa
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPGx1kavmp
Landon cut him off. "Robbie has already had her share of club adventures. Mr. Wolfe doesn't want her getting involved."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyQBHBiuab
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbfXqcdQas
"I heard all about her little adventure that got Carlos-"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lqOahAKfG
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEHyGo7Sae
"Can you just shut the fuck up?" Landon snapped harshly.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XvMFJM5vv
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeUgy1dskv
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4AkLlLaO9
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3i4caICmT3
"Landon? What's wrong?" I whispered to him and he shook his head.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1DIvwacz2
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6hwt9EBQy
"I don't want to get into it."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTCEXleDYz
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bXoL5WV20
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VRC64chir
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGVE5f1EKk
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNShszZlUa
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07fU0NNcnK
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dKhLbLwpF
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2F3UW0o4x
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjBIps8l2S
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnfeagwFcp
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5ggb5LTjb
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxo0RCpOqzO
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgKMDj7Doz
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC61FiI7wf
Kalon Wolfe may be a cold, heartless monster, but I couldn't find it in me to hate him.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84Erj5Vicp
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u0jm8YWzE
"What's going on, Quinn?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvpz52KV4I
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRcm4zMiko
I looked back at Samuel as he stepped onto the balcony next to me and lit up a cigarette.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUOrNCV5Tp
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt8zB30avE
"Just enjoying the weather."
He inhaled deeply. "Has Landon always been so protective of you?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPQqZRrJtL
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyLGobmfv0
I looked at him, confused. "Protective?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOH89aymJE
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRMNtielrr
"Yeah," He blew out a string of smoke rings. "Seems like he doesn't want you to know anything."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDyvYYjfWp
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXme2xcHrk
"Well, I'm not an idiot about what goes on around here, but Landon is just trying to keep out of trouble.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdCURTBGTD
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0qEbJ1VVf
He nodded and took another drag. "I heard you got him into some deep shit with his brother and the boss."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiAwIOU0Ai
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMForIGb0j
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlGjexDCrp
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIFPe62Hwu
"Well, if you ever want to have real fun, I'm your man." Samuel laughed and smiled widely. 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzD5F1VmWT
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi8wi2ECnO
"How so?" I asked, eyeing him curiously.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ740KIGe3pw
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAYwPmwykC
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7hIgV5I7W
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCeCxvBMQh
This was news to me. "Anybody can go under contract then?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaJMzecKKf
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HZr9SgWe3
"Yep," He grinned crookedly at me. "Even you, Quinn."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMwIvDFXef
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL17DSNs2tH
"I don't want to piss anyone off, especially Ka- I mean, Mr. Wolfe."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnZqWYEvWf
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFIJkJM4EO
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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSQ4cN3Y68
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfcA5PJXG4
"He's here?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLhBqu4fve
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEEJY4Cybz
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsnCzvqAVk
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWscdJDE7R
"What makes you say that?" I laughed.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1uYIjghNa
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hpWZTjZUk
He looked me up and down. "Don't be stupid."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQUg4dGjwg
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFhb0i2S04
"Won't he be pissed though if he hears I'm there? Especially, after what happened the last time."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQPDz2EWHC
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgb5WN7Htk
"As I said, Axel has his ways," He winked. "Don't worry about Mr. Wolfe, you deserve to have fun too."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1B1P5eEeG
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64qLtVmwB6
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnWBsn4GJj
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CDcU75XIv
"Don't worry about the kid," Samuel said when he noticed my gaze. "Jax is just protective of him."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmazmW6SXI
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7ZMEIDeQz
"Okay," I muttered and looked back up at him. "When can we go?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeNllQ9xiq
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATVOYnL2es
_336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDikJ2tnX0N
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zitgdezfe
"Keep up, Quinn!"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipYH6xF763
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRHl4QRFet
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTVM6GDPxH
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNjM5U3MJg
"You could walk slower!" I huffed at him.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqSfiKSsc2
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfcuQLVCRl
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDHIBkuuGC
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveNC1Q6DCb
Liam kicked a rock back in my direction. "Pick better shoes, princess."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHRGPRKC9z
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzZZM214L9
"Dick!"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiLjZSuFnE
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSHkE2msyS
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXUvKjpACC
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQaTthDU4I
"Are we at the right place?" I asked as we rounded the corner.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlDxqAyUUu
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwSvfrXLL8
"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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrehanTmuKQ
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWTLtSMaKy
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfG8jneTUv
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhLDTDzOnO
"Where's Axel?" Samuel said and flashed what looked like an ID.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDb71kh5t5G
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuon3D4RSt
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. 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9dOKNc1Ph
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37MNCwXzpO
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7I11t5YUR
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbg5TYFrYF
It was weird to see anyone who worked with Kalon dressed in something so normal.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhG62oIEIe
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjtJ4oNC11
"Ahh! Look who you brought with you!" He cheered and reached out to grasp my hands. "How have you been?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcU8alKHXH
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQp8wajVG7t
I blushed a bit when I caught his mismatched eyes roaming over my red velvet dress. "I've been okay, just working."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoF16uhCw3
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kx6wxkHJ3
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWcOmHtq8a
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMphR2iF0LR
"You could say that."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5xgPskXvT
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEsgqPM5JX
Axel grinned unevenly and brought my palm up to kiss it. "I'm so glad you are here."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFVVlbmHUU
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8r3EZCbqn
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnro64xRwCK
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCs9aK2YQyT
"Me too."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh0YUW1i5G
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AnCNZk4xM
"Alright, kids," Samuel fake gagged. "Let's get inside because daddy needs a drink."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeem4bHcXgf
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KIfb9vevA
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOI8KI4Uef9
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nOBMLdw6j
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17i2thjIyq
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvXCqDpYkD
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlP5ryjEmZI
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9ilYnv62P
"This is Kalon's?" I said to Axel and he nodded.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYrPeE4DYk
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXQXV6OSiy
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76yWfasE2B
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenEOkLdzIU
"Money laundering?" I laughed.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRvI1LXpW1
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs75pkJDrys
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhHxRNFn2Z
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8fgEq8vQU
"Seems like a lot to handle."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNhgmpxLYt
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBv6c4W8aL9
"Yeah, but that's why you get guys like me involved." He winked and playfully bumped my shoulder. "Want a drink?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkwyPRjmck
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWnDLRKAWQ
"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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZiAiJW1SE
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdBcBtVu7f
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLl2c2euus
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRql5fSpK4t
"Is that so?" I teased and took the shot glass from him.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEhjcCyFOd
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56th6VSsFC
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWJGDyi6M6
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PZYpKVwoo
"Why didn't you text me?" He asked and handed me the second shot.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyzxqKzK4c
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAtO60WEv4
My cheeks blushed. "I'm sorry...I just-"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dSZm21tga
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVdQy36vYA
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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcm10GCQxY
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNOoyYiCx9
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjo8XDdqUvv
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtaP1xsHiU
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxOSnDPBir
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXG5lxzlRF
"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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWs7sNgYkk
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm49jAH2IL6
"Another?" Axel piped and motioned for the bartender.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GtxZ2HUgK
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuNDibDCn8
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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIYZHcGl8U
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxS4ordF98
He rolled his eyes and tinked his glass on mine again. "Let me handle him."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRuN3TuZxI
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡra13CYOvCn
"Are the two of you close?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpK8DkJqT1
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gNdGJqn3V
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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEavJZrvOU6
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYreYOBhnI
"What about you?" 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxDlXb5aJO
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1XKpHPEad
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKmUOQbrUy
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzxaJFBiFp
"Do you enjoy working with him?" I eyed him curiously.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzUSX0UjIl
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzShdhmioRy
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EpUTFeXDF
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8igBHLTtch
"Sounds like the life." 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxjHAMXg4m
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0IfvkokeE
"It's not all it seems," He murmured and let his eyes wander over me again. "Sometimes you get really lonely."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4KoISNJtA
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEZ0MitbT2
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJBAAVsk7e
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUk5ioboY31
I leaned in closer to him and smirked. "You poor thing."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTptkZsDAle
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0vizE4mxb
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzVKTOh4Vb
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4lAt73lsB
"Want to get out of here?" He whispered lowly. His lips just inches away from my own.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGQHtmMKqP
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQgGGqebge
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYgxJFlxxs
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWBu04VpuD
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtf9Fz7r54n
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsat6SK2vO
"I'm sorry?" I laughed as she pulled away. 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePze2fURZM
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJRKxvYMVz
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAOKzU5fJo
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6JlYugNQt
"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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZHd1Gtco1
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQFrs5Ff65
"You work for Kalon Wolfe?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBslSxDwzoJ
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnbrEUyomm
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-"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8I0PpBg3P
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXGLOasrIl
Axel cut her off, "She's not a dancer, doll."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpGOHaIJW2
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52DcL4A8bc
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs7fHV1Wqq
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8NdQcLZfD
"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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEgoujyJt4
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OIjO2WSeV
"O-oh, well, thank you. It was nice meeting you, Maria."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQptQxQNSd
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GfKEOFJkr
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24I43v8ddH
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUsA1BjbSS
"What was that about?" I asked Axel, noticing he was still staring at them too.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyxc5C0qWJ
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDvYUH0yr9
He shook his head. "Don't worry about it."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrvV7QmIEd
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7s3UmMBrM
"Seems like Maria isn't a fan?" I teased and leaned against the bar. 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K5ugvQPHP
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqX4IeDhM0c
"Probably because she's my ex-girlfriend."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoj6q8qpjq
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0J6XxE4iy
My jaw dropped. "You dated Maria?"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8OceqSpJr
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡho2Ffvo6pT
"Am I too ugly for her?" He scoffed and ordered two more drinks.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKaraUUsHT
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn1L4bT6WG
"No, I just would've thought with Lia-"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjDkaBrn6u
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6PIPbHD3e
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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjmk8S2k5J
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOvdCCYipR
"Try me.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW11XR8oaEJ
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcl5JPHvda
He smirked at me and looked behind him. "Maybe another time."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJUzHJXQ5E
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVxSOS37OZ
"Quinn! Get your ass up there!"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWotflIG22s
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3XbRK0TJS
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMuSnWyC5R
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhcT3sWlNS
"No!No!" I waved back at them and laughed.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KsG6eYClV
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5ScYfjBTv
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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRbfBiwCyI
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmlY41hYkO
I rolled my eyes. "Finn, I can't fucking dance. Look at me, I have nothing to show and no rhythm."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxGgiGxXVD
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNIUiX9xHk
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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0xVIIh5qo
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxgZrB7oba
"You're so lucky I am drunk as hell."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCgY6uy80m
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMmG0Tf0G8
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXp7qA1DbI
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbR5oZc80sp
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG14ZBJ1tFi
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuQ6oMoVgV
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwF6DXrtoE
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmyvCS6TXZ
"Take it off, baby!"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWpXPC6y3t
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUn9DnQVG1j
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5RK4k7sPE
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxeXsM3BwP
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LbcxNPetE
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVacTWxrxF
"Come on, Quinn! Show us what you are hiding."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJCvs2RkVC
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFBwIT57SH
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuGPTgRfAU
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmRJnyJbSv
"Fuck it!" I muttered and reached down to pull my dress off.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih8fS4z3mS
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaCQqrIWiN
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAw9Spoucio
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqZbvkHiR3
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9ANVcXb6g
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAjCLegs58
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYwCXtinC7
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98gTeHtOKC
I felt so good. I felt so alive and so-336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKh1LKIu0J
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBUPSfFjAZ
*BANG* *BANG* 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSPCBQQ0j6
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHEtzcA2SF
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4M5ARahFPu
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqM6a0BYZXE
"Turn the fucking music off now!"336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdafqNBMBL
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyP4SC1bFJS
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHy6wfVs0d
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKKJOyI1ds
"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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hj9xMOq0o
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9e1vtn5ROE
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPfXBFg0CA
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpNm8dbhx6
"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."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaJJwQfzLv
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9n8jCxl4g
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLJcZZIMq3
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpUKYreVfC
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.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf2e0sX8sN
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG2Qnn3WJj
"Get up and go."336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtWXKBfsFL
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GdeTfA9Cs
I nodded and stood. I felt so low and defeated. I had fucked up again.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBiFguzkOD
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07lOOjQrnR
I'm so fucking dead.336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmi9Mk0d0n
