After I had left the office with Axel I was in a complete daze and so confused. I was grateful I had the rest of the day to really think about what had happened.402Please respect copyright.PENANAATA8et2eB6
402Please respect copyright.PENANA1EaoUzFwLe
I stared at his number on my palm for what felt like forever. Moments of confidence would hit me and I'd pick up my cellphone like I was actually going to do something.402Please respect copyright.PENANAzI5twElEv5
402Please respect copyright.PENANASdWxFJseX7
I ended my night laying flat on my back watching shitty tv with a bag of popcorn. His number still fresh on my palm as I laid there in my dismay over Axel's offer on dinner.402Please respect copyright.PENANASIJVPGkrnW
402Please respect copyright.PENANAUXg7um1Wog
He was handsome, funny, and kind. Who in their right mind would say no?402Please respect copyright.PENANA1mFavNZjFs
402Please respect copyright.PENANA1nXg5a4M7A
Part of me wanted to say 'yes' to his offer right away but then there was that other part of me that kept playing my interaction with Kalon over and over.402Please respect copyright.PENANApYaSd85Tnk
402Please respect copyright.PENANA9ludQ3iVyM
Him being so close to me that day, driving my heart up, his intoxicating scent washing over me like a wave.402Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3Y8sqGw6M
402Please respect copyright.PENANA2vU2DaIwMM
As much as I wanted to hate Kalon for the situation I'm in, I couldn't seem to get him out of my mind. I knew a girl like me was nothing but a number to someone in his position.402Please respect copyright.PENANAlbyhTK97dd
402Please respect copyright.PENANAjPIPrFdtSg
A man like that would never go for a girl like me. My entire life is a god damn joke and I basically look like I'm still fifteen years old.402Please respect copyright.PENANATaqWj1zKkq
402Please respect copyright.PENANA5ruVPtfKA5
Kalon goes for girls like Naomi. Women who have amazing curves and big, fake breasts.402Please respect copyright.PENANAC2lOXkZhI4
402Please respect copyright.PENANAtsvUqBahgn
Women who are absolute bitches to everyone around them.402Please respect copyright.PENANAnerv0Php46
402Please respect copyright.PENANALazcIofuwY
I had hoped the right answer would come to me but it never did. I woke up that next morning with a stress headache and stumbled my way through my morning routine.402Please respect copyright.PENANAt0GIzToP18
402Please respect copyright.PENANA18KO0kWHFi
Kalon was supposed to be back from his business trip this morning and despite my own mental torment, I was eager to prove my worth to him.402Please respect copyright.PENANAgJdo6KKlyz
402Please respect copyright.PENANAiX2jImZpAJ
Once my shower was finished I stood completely naked in front of the steamy bathroom mirror and stared back at my own reflection.402Please respect copyright.PENANApEQEB3Daia
402Please respect copyright.PENANAaQANod97xE
I looked the same but at the same time, I felt so different. 402Please respect copyright.PENANATQ6jkj3TAJ
402Please respect copyright.PENANAc4dhWoGNZl
My skin had a bit of a glow and was the clearest it had been in years. My cheeks were rosy and my hair full of volume and curls.402Please respect copyright.PENANAFvhrWB88Rh
402Please respect copyright.PENANA9eE3SbkejI
I felt like a woman standing exposed at that moment. I felt confident and proud.402Please respect copyright.PENANARhwKZtZS5j
402Please respect copyright.PENANAroeE1Mg3Bv
I felt like...like my mom.402Please respect copyright.PENANAAjf5n9XKFb
402Please respect copyright.PENANAQ03M5sKE8A
Tears hit me as the thought of her came over me. I never thought I would grow into my features so rapidly. The same features she was known for.402Please respect copyright.PENANAM5o9x6Bwbb
402Please respect copyright.PENANA7h5vWWm51b
I used to feel so complimented knowing how similar we were but now it was just so fucking painful.402Please respect copyright.PENANAU9Ik1HCqTF
402Please respect copyright.PENANAtBtSK55qK5
"Brush it off..." I whispered to myself and braced my hands on the counter.402Please respect copyright.PENANA7I67SWmzzS
402Please respect copyright.PENANAlOKcUn16nE
My body was on high alert and I could feel nausea starting to hit me from the nerves breaking out all over.402Please respect copyright.PENANAs0LBrDwuF8
402Please respect copyright.PENANAuYAco72394
Before I had time to dwell on my emotions for too long I turned my attention on my morning routine. 402Please respect copyright.PENANA4hum8G2yOU
402Please respect copyright.PENANAWL8CbaQQBh
I decided today would be the day I took that extra step in really showing what kind of woman I am and how valuable I can be.402Please respect copyright.PENANAocBukb8tnB
402Please respect copyright.PENANAfMpSom2dTZ
I straightened my hair for the first time in years and even decided to add some stunning red lipstick with smokey shadow and mascara.402Please respect copyright.PENANAwgPnUhA8tN
402Please respect copyright.PENANAfqSoP91Wln
I swiped a bit of blush along with the sharpest points of my cheekbones and smiled back at myself.402Please respect copyright.PENANA4FduAqbvXU
402Please respect copyright.PENANAna5UY25kvb
I looked good. Mature.402Please respect copyright.PENANAXXXS0FWzKm
402Please respect copyright.PENANAxpOrZiHlPT
I sat my makeup brushes down and slipped into my underwear and tight, black dress quickly. I knew Kalon would be in his office soon and didn't want to ruin today by being late.402Please respect copyright.PENANA63GajhK7J6
402Please respect copyright.PENANA1yfsn88Kwe
After slipping on my new heels that I was sure I'd break an ankle in, I hurried out of my room and down the hall. I could already feel my heart pounding loudly in my ears as I anxiously checked my cellphone time.402Please respect copyright.PENANA8CFGlDMAEc
402Please respect copyright.PENANAppzVIQVY7A
Why the hell did he have to be on the opposite side of a house that is the equivalent of 5 single family homes?! 402Please respect copyright.PENANAELFz3OHQbb
402Please respect copyright.PENANAd1JVhiDlIc
By the time his office came into view my vision was starting to blur from how out of breath I was. Hopefully, I wasn't already sweating my damn makeup off.402Please respect copyright.PENANAvIrUgTRU1R
402Please respect copyright.PENANApQXSBF0paW
I reached out to knock against the door when I heard a sound come from the other side.402Please respect copyright.PENANA5ICCElQw0k
402Please respect copyright.PENANAK3PVYebKMc
I pulled back a bit and listened closely for it to come again but after a few moments of nothing I decided it was probably safe to just enter before I really was late.402Please respect copyright.PENANAf576KbVgHg
402Please respect copyright.PENANAk1fc0eNTUw
I pushed open the door, smiling brightly as the office came into view.402Please respect copyright.PENANA53Y5zrOCx8
402Please respect copyright.PENANAJAm9IY2dHN
I got an immediate display of Kalon's exposed chest covered in colorful tattoos as his hand griped furiously onto a blondes head.402Please respect copyright.PENANAyMTaAqHeKq
402Please respect copyright.PENANAYkXyPStPln
He immediately saw me walk in and I felt my cheeks heat up as he continued to pump himself deeper and faster into the girls mouth as she gagged desperately for air.402Please respect copyright.PENANAR7u6n9eB0s
402Please respect copyright.PENANAX56jztoSK3
I opened my mouth to speak but stopped when he shook his head quickly and kept his focus on me. I could feel my insides spinning and an all too familiar warmth built up like wildfire between my legs as he fucked me with his eyes.402Please respect copyright.PENANAAIeIowDbha
402Please respect copyright.PENANA7pUgjTsq96
I couldn't take my eyes off of them. He was so incredible with how he performed.402Please respect copyright.PENANAn9gdKKoYeJ
402Please respect copyright.PENANAmkFkYCk8kB
His muscles rippling with each stroke as he pushed deeper into her throat, his breaths coming out heavy and fast.402Please respect copyright.PENANAlmqT6e2YPR
402Please respect copyright.PENANA04dgi0uLyZ
His steel eyes roamed over my body, hungrily. I suddenly pictured myself in her place instead. The desire to please him was overwhelming and unexpected as it hit me.402Please respect copyright.PENANAaXZEnFcAlz
402Please respect copyright.PENANAYQLWRpvSfA
Kalon continued to breath deeply as he kept his eyes on me and bit his lower lip in need. I felt my palms drench with sweat as I braced myself against the doorframe and watched the show come to an end.402Please respect copyright.PENANAr1OESQLiyY
402Please respect copyright.PENANA7CQoY6KQtr
His free hand steadied her head and he pushed himself into her fully as he released. His moans began to subside and the girl at his waist let out a small laugh before pushing back onto her knees.402Please respect copyright.PENANAbXHJsi6u6N
402Please respect copyright.PENANAWaRpZ3fTNx
I quickly looked away to the floor as Kalon moved in my direction, exposing himself to me. I knew it was inappropriate to be watching this and certainly not professional in any way, but there was a bigger part of me building with desire to see every part of him.402Please respect copyright.PENANADQ1SOzh3V2
402Please respect copyright.PENANAhsO5bLeWAo
I wanted to admire his perfection, his strength.402Please respect copyright.PENANAwxb5EEDKfg
402Please respect copyright.PENANALxEc0VKbod
"Good morning, Miss Quinn."402Please respect copyright.PENANAvmDlGS9Qsu
402Please respect copyright.PENANAiBdKWOxKfA
My heart seemed to skip a bit as Kalon addressed me still keeping his attention on his shirt as he finished buttoning it up.402Please respect copyright.PENANAZCFa64AA8m
402Please respect copyright.PENANA01UnrPdpIG
The blonde gasped and spun around in a haste. As soon as she did, I realized that it had been the blonde she-devil that had been choking on his dick.402Please respect copyright.PENANATjgG1GRVAk
402Please respect copyright.PENANAZXjZpZfYmz
"Are you fucking serious?" Naomi screeched and covered up her exposed breasts.402Please respect copyright.PENANAjnA1n2Qw8S
402Please respect copyright.PENANAmAnlTrsPGX
"I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was interrupting something," I apologized and kept my gaze on the floor. "Do I need to come back?"402Please respect copyright.PENANAo6E4znCeHz
402Please respect copyright.PENANAO0UlB7AWrn
I heard the office chair move and Kalon spoke up. "No need! Good morning, I'm excited to get you started."402Please respect copyright.PENANAPI6vOQGggi
402Please respect copyright.PENANALeA2rrRkPf
"Well, I'm out of here. Let me know what happens with the meetings," Naomi sighed and pushed past me, nearly pushing me over.402Please respect copyright.PENANA3lFdWccBBu
402Please respect copyright.PENANAOpdRcnUiBg
Kalon and I sat for a few moments in silence as the door slammed shut with her rage fueled exit.402Please respect copyright.PENANASQ6YS26eN4
402Please respect copyright.PENANAt9tk4M6T4x
I took a deep breath and looked back up at him. He had already been staring at me.402Please respect copyright.PENANAWF5qlBAby2
402Please respect copyright.PENANAUSamuzfLtI
"I'm very sorry for interrupting the two of you. I didn't realize Naomi was your girlfriend, otherwise I -"402Please respect copyright.PENANATj8QvvqrSV
402Please respect copyright.PENANA5h5HYA05NQ
Kalon put his hand up to stop me. "Please stop apologizing to me and Naomi is not my girlfriend."402Please respect copyright.PENANAGnSIGz05ZY
402Please respect copyright.PENANAld9X3AtURZ
"Oh..."My nerves relaxed a bit, "I'm so-" I started out again but stopped when I saw his eyes narrow. "Understood, sir."402Please respect copyright.PENANAm6RUfend5B
402Please respect copyright.PENANAYuXXcGOBuu
He nodded and raised his arms up behind his head, the curves of his biceps showing through the fabric of his long sleeve shirt. "I'd like you to join me today, I need to attend a few meetings and I'm not the best on keeping myself organized."402Please respect copyright.PENANAd292ibAmuH
402Please respect copyright.PENANAs2wY1ezr6X
"Of course, that's why I'm here."402Please respect copyright.PENANAP0ud3nnY9K
402Please respect copyright.PENANA3TpAS4pvkg
His mouth curved into a crooked grin. "I'm sure you will do great."402Please respect copyright.PENANA6I5ZvUxooN
402Please respect copyright.PENANAo9vqnfHvc0
"T-thank you."402Please respect copyright.PENANAVyomdhVbGE
402Please respect copyright.PENANAo986PARfsr
Kalon nodded briefly and pushed back his hair from his forehead. He looked down at several scattered papers on his desk and fingered through them.402Please respect copyright.PENANAlCzcdDDs0J
402Please respect copyright.PENANAHT2m7qTnGQ
"Very impressed with your categorization," He said as he continued to read. "Certainly made my morning a lot easier."402Please respect copyright.PENANA8tFWw2vGNc
402Please respect copyright.PENANA1GuJsSkxxO
"Thank you...and you're welcome," I smiled a bit at the compliment.402Please respect copyright.PENANAlrZ9Kf2MrY
402Please respect copyright.PENANAuNsuQ8dDD7
"Anyways, I am going to shower and change into something a little more suited for the day. I'll meet you at your room in about an hour." Kalon said and leaned back, his grey eyes roaming over me402Please respect copyright.PENANA5shj9kwUvJ
402Please respect copyright.PENANAFRR7ir6Ffs
"Of course, sir. I'll see you soon." I responded quickly and hurried out of the room before another thought could cross my mind.402Please respect copyright.PENANAcKtinpNV2u
402Please respect copyright.PENANArsO3tKp4C7
As soon as the door shut, I leaned against it and tried to steady my breathing. My head was such a mess.402Please respect copyright.PENANAFlCYAszpDK
402Please respect copyright.PENANA6NkibcdEgE
I didn't know what Kalon was doing...and what he was doing to me.402Please respect copyright.PENANAmGt1zEzRFs
402Please respect copyright.PENANAHp3g27IPMH
Something about him was so fucking addicting. It wasn't even the insanely good looks and power, it was just everything about him.402Please respect copyright.PENANAvi9cwmEe9d
402Please respect copyright.PENANAwrUWMYpmCu
That next hour went way too fast. I sat on my bed the entire time just thinking about the entire scene that had played out.402Please respect copyright.PENANAbJQAdETp6e
402Please respect copyright.PENANAlfmxcH9sjL
Watching Naomi with him had me in a ball of emotions. I couldn't tell if I was jealous or just aroused by the idea of pleasing him.402Please respect copyright.PENANAVqmT58o8eo
402Please respect copyright.PENANAdtevUCsWBv
It felt so wrong to even let that be a thought. He was my boss! He's the reason my life is miserable.402Please respect copyright.PENANApvLGnffdgy
402Please respect copyright.PENANAKWseCDjDGl
Despite the mental torture I went through for that next hour when a knock sounded at my door, I quickly dashed across the room to find him standing there.402Please respect copyright.PENANAPHJatIWXDi
402Please respect copyright.PENANAuPtI2vVXar
As always, Kalon looked incredible. His hair was styled and swept away from his face, showing off the curves of his sharp cheekbones and grey eyes roaming over me again.402Please respect copyright.PENANANElg1GJlE2
402Please respect copyright.PENANAPXV0qjKUPx
"Let's go."402Please respect copyright.PENANAw5MeIz3m1y
402Please respect copyright.PENANAxFjG0x3GWA
I nodded and tried to keep up with his long legs the best I could. You'd think he would take into consideration our drastic height difference, but as his assistant, it was my job to keep up with HIM instead.402Please respect copyright.PENANAaJQbARMQHE
402Please respect copyright.PENANADO4sQKtImA
As Kalon and I exited the front of the manor we were greeted by several of his men. I started walking towards the black Escalade but stopped when Kalon snatched me by the elbow.402Please respect copyright.PENANAU0yT04PuUa
402Please respect copyright.PENANAqYFchrlKGF
"What's wrong?"402Please respect copyright.PENANAtlhhUSCp6f
402Please respect copyright.PENANAfn33sUCt7Z
He shook his head, "I'm driving today."402Please respect copyright.PENANAuzyjNFqhuh
402Please respect copyright.PENANACoAk6AI6OQ
I looked at him confused and a bit shocked that we weren't being escorted by the guards. Kalon was not known for taking his employees on joy rides in his own personal cars.402Please respect copyright.PENANAK6gsheJIYy
402Please respect copyright.PENANA0YxVdVHDN9
If business was involved, it was quick and discreet.402Please respect copyright.PENANApIzGCpY8ne
402Please respect copyright.PENANAxRWFEYecym
I kept up with him closely as we rounded the driveway to an open garage where several expensive cars sat. I tried to keep my composure and excitement contained as he stepped inside and waited.402Please respect copyright.PENANA48DACWxacv
402Please respect copyright.PENANA8RMf2LkAg0
"Something wrong?" I asked after several moments of awkward silence.402Please respect copyright.PENANALdyh77Y0Y3
402Please respect copyright.PENANAtGQjDL5BDh
He sighed and glanced at his watch. "Pick a car."402Please respect copyright.PENANA1cx6hVH7Gd
402Please respect copyright.PENANAE5EJ1vRdLa
I tried to swallow the lump building in my throat and scanned the garage. The task of choosing his car for today was not what I had in mind.402Please respect copyright.PENANANezYKhw8SJ
402Please respect copyright.PENANArDf7cAdwS5
What if this was some weird kind of test.402Please respect copyright.PENANAyyuhWNjKfg
402Please respect copyright.PENANAVf4YG2iE9F
"That one."402Please respect copyright.PENANADT9bVhSVOn
402Please respect copyright.PENANAm8NlgpmPbs
His eyes followed my gaze and a bit of a smirk played on the corner of his mouth when he noticed I picked out the black Bugatti.402Please respect copyright.PENANAalDNIkMYcd
402Please respect copyright.PENANAu83cbtdh30
Without another word, the two of us climbed into the sleek vehicle and he brought the engine to life. A deep, low grumble filled the silence as he pulled out from the driveway and onto the road confined by the heavy trees that lined the estate.402Please respect copyright.PENANAmm5JdhxQuw
402Please respect copyright.PENANAvDh1oM2v6T
I kept my gaze out the window as he drove through into the city. I couldn't help but clutch nervously at the hem of my dress as the road started to blur more and more.402Please respect copyright.PENANAchSOhyEJbK
402Please respect copyright.PENANAkyEIZ3e36F
I'm sure Kalon was more than amused by my horrified expression at his need for speed, but I didn't dare give him that satisfaction.402Please respect copyright.PENANAFfMpcygJb3
402Please respect copyright.PENANApG4aAFEq4x
Thankfully, our drive came to an end after a short 20 minutes and the engine was turned off once more.402Please respect copyright.PENANAnSNOuUe8Ax
402Please respect copyright.PENANAZLpLZ66U0M
"You okay?" Kalon laughed softly.402Please respect copyright.PENANAuH2itQmlfV
402Please respect copyright.PENANAdAwGH6VTwJ
I nodded, letting out a big breath. "You sure like to drive...fast."402Please respect copyright.PENANAdXZeHnyFAi
402Please respect copyright.PENANAL3MeTFNIk6
"When you have a car like this it's a waste of money to not speed."402Please respect copyright.PENANALq23DJT8VS
402Please respect copyright.PENANAnHEZ0aOuw8
I tried to force a laugh out in response but didn't entirely agree with his rich boy thinking. I met Kalon at the front of the car, cradling my belongings close to my chest as the front of the casino came into view.402Please respect copyright.PENANAsiUH3JQ3Bc
402Please respect copyright.PENANACpuUk6UPxu
He slipped his sunglasses off his face and eyed the guards at the front of the door. "Keep quiet unless I address you. Stay close and take plenty of notes."402Please respect copyright.PENANAWISxbYpTCN
402Please respect copyright.PENANAwTWs1dXdhg
"Yes, sir."402Please respect copyright.PENANAXjYOpTDm7d
402Please respect copyright.PENANA6lb8jeWrCa
He glared down at me. "It's Kalon."402Please respect copyright.PENANAXfFBCu6xcf
402Please respect copyright.PENANAYjElttdRqD
"Sorry, si- I mean Kalon." I blushed and he just shook his head as we entered through the front.402Please respect copyright.PENANAyVG7Rzprqp
402Please respect copyright.PENANAL1OcO9yhyo
"Mr. Wolfe! It's such a pleasure to see you."402Please respect copyright.PENANAAsxnPosh2p
402Please respect copyright.PENANA83fvboAY5M
I peeped around his shoulder as an unfamiliar man with blonde hair and a nasty looking scar down the right side of his face came into view. In a way, he reminded me a lot of an older version of Jax.402Please respect copyright.PENANAUbS3CmxzTa
402Please respect copyright.PENANA3lB7INfWhu
"Erik, nice to see you."402Please respect copyright.PENANAhldn0CD51T
402Please respect copyright.PENANA376kNGLjxq
"It's been a minute, man!" Erik cheered and tossed an arm around Kalon's shoulders. "Where the fuck have you been?"402Please respect copyright.PENANAQqWs3bvITy
402Please respect copyright.PENANAOK5OZy20Rt
Kalon shrugged him off, "Business."402Please respect copyright.PENANAasudsPKHAw
402Please respect copyright.PENANArSqfFaqbLo
"Yeah, yeah. Always business with you! Axel shows his face around here more than you do, boss."402Please respect copyright.PENANA6WbBdip7wr
402Please respect copyright.PENANA2Z9F62JCeX
Kalon didn't respond and Erik's eyes fell on me hiding behind him. "Woah, Woah! You weren't going to introduce us?" Erik gushed and put his hand out. "Nice to meet you, darling. The name is Erik Krueger."402Please respect copyright.PENANAOyTcmsBxf9
402Please respect copyright.PENANApOi5y7bdHY
"Roberta Quinn."402Please respect copyright.PENANAYuY0yoCDuw
402Please respect copyright.PENANAbdtBeTIwDs
Erik smiled unevenly. "Where has he been hiding you?"402Please respect copyright.PENANAVNhwRElYPN
402Please respect copyright.PENANA58e7gD0eOz
I chuckled, looking away nervously. "I'm just an assistant."402Please respect copyright.PENANAWTBvAC4NsS
402Please respect copyright.PENANAH3IXv8Sy6i
"She's trying to do her job, Erik. Stop making my employees uncomfortable." Kalon barked out harshly.402Please respect copyright.PENANAMinnsPQosM
402Please respect copyright.PENANAMWyM0sd4vM
Erik rolled his eyes and stepped away, still keeping me in his view as he talked. "Just being kind to the lady."402Please respect copyright.PENANAZQqPpkZK9E
402Please respect copyright.PENANAys6K3Ohqjo
Kalon ignored him. "Where's Vinny? This needs to get going."402Please respect copyright.PENANAICZZvlKMoL
402Please respect copyright.PENANAMEpTMGn7jk
"VIP lounge."402Please respect copyright.PENANAH6bZZSs6rR
402Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZgyTY5ZDo
Kalon nodded and looked back at me, "Come on."402Please respect copyright.PENANAQGDQXYZkz6
402Please respect copyright.PENANAwJZwJNQmnc
I kept on his heels closely as he led the way through the packed casino. Men in business suits swarmed past us, laughing loudly as they swung their beers around and blew their money at the tables surrounding us. It was lively and girls by the dozen moved around us with silver platters and flapper dresses.402Please respect copyright.PENANAUf0BadJbxn
402Please respect copyright.PENANAN4jQrUIRnn
I certainly could see the charm about the place. Despite not fully understanding Kalon's motives, he seemed to be good at one thing for sure.402Please respect copyright.PENANAOVAIXwdmPL
402Please respect copyright.PENANAJXDBC55jax
Business and money.402Please respect copyright.PENANA47VF7Wjqd2
402Please respect copyright.PENANAy5MXUuOdiB
The halls started to dim as we turned down a red velvet hallway towards a massive room showing VIP in big, gold letters lit up by lights. A man dressed in all black stood in front of a rope blocking the entrance.402Please respect copyright.PENANAgH1VDs0BZO
402Please respect copyright.PENANAuPXw0yCyY3
"Mr. Wolfe." He nodded and moved to the side.402Please respect copyright.PENANAu1xwtWFRXi
402Please respect copyright.PENANAYAjjtk4yhu
I tried to push my nerves down as the two of us entered the room together. Loud house music filled the room and there was a small stage in the middle of the room where a stripper was performing topless.402Please respect copyright.PENANAVE1WKKW2Kd
402Please respect copyright.PENANAf3K0eDl0rJ
The air was hot and full of marijuana and hookah smoke. I watched as Kalon motioned towards a group of men sitting at the back of the room with briefcases laid out on the table in front of them.402Please respect copyright.PENANAKcNZWCmU9g
402Please respect copyright.PENANAP6ovwVrJNB
"Mr. Santoro."402Please respect copyright.PENANAFHkIPelvLO
402Please respect copyright.PENANAJsMOpE7zts
One of the older men at the table looked up towards Kalon. His cigar hanging loosely between his lips.402Please respect copyright.PENANATBYioQSd6W
402Please respect copyright.PENANAp08ypJA9DF
"Kalon Wolfe," He chuckled and blew out smoke. "Nice to finally see you! I assumed Axel would've been filling in for you today."402Please respect copyright.PENANA3RzpLmVQFI
402Please respect copyright.PENANArrBXjvxhWf
"I got back into town early."402Please respect copyright.PENANAbKvo0jpdMi
402Please respect copyright.PENANAGJxaeRBTz9
Kalon started to move towards the booth and looked back at me. "Sit behind us."402Please respect copyright.PENANAPTOPUfxQHc
402Please respect copyright.PENANA5brdg6Tiao
I nodded and eyed an empty seat at the table behind them and slid into it, keeping the conversation within earshot so I could take notes as he instructed.402Please respect copyright.PENANAdTJeO1VxWy
402Please respect copyright.PENANAq9zEcYQxEJ
The men broke out into some boring conversation about rich people things before finally getting into the real stuff. I listened as attentively as I could as they discussed percentages and cuts.402Please respect copyright.PENANAAXjLA6MCOZ
402Please respect copyright.PENANAvJwlLUo5cK
About an hour into the conversation, I could feel my hand going numb. I didn't know anything about this Santoro fellow, but from what I could tell it sounded like he was really wanting to screw Kalon over.402Please respect copyright.PENANA14oY6H0jaA
402Please respect copyright.PENANASwE9H3r9vG
"Hey, beautiful."402Please respect copyright.PENANAQYBZ5a6Cy2

I put my pen down and looked up as Erik from earlier slid into the booth across from me.402Please respect copyright.PENANA61M0r5QFkY
402Please respect copyright.PENANAQUhCkqSTjZ
"Hey, sorry I'm trying to work."402Please respect copyright.PENANAwEaC7JXP7P
402Please respect copyright.PENANAPOhyEYk0U4
He smirked. "Probably pretty boring listening to all of that business chat, huh?"402Please respect copyright.PENANAMBVvkod5B6
402Please respect copyright.PENANAaZLrUux73h
I nodded and tried to focus on the notes. "I guess so."402Please respect copyright.PENANABmFo4YzjZJ
402Please respect copyright.PENANAM66BPI7Qfr
"I bet working for someone like Kalon Wolfe is pretty scary too."402Please respect copyright.PENANAmovwsktZ1G
402Please respect copyright.PENANARYE9DttlDI
I looked up, confused. "What do you mean?"402Please respect copyright.PENANAINusVIBeao
402Please respect copyright.PENANAjcpZievHny
He rolled his eyes and leaned closer. "You don't have to play it down. Everyone here is just as bad as he is."402Please respect copyright.PENANAy5HTg8VCOM
402Please respect copyright.PENANAvx4XtkAz2N
"Bad?"402Please respect copyright.PENANAYLnlLyAuSD
402Please respect copyright.PENANAiYn6GYlpKl
"Bad," He mimicked and slid out a cigarette. "Want one?"402Please respect copyright.PENANAwKMTVKZeDr
402Please respect copyright.PENANAf8kSqiHqEv
"No thanks," I shook my head. "And I actually don't really know a lot about the family. I know what I signed is unusual, but Mr. Wolfe tends to be pretty private."402Please respect copyright.PENANAz1UT48TdQK
402Please respect copyright.PENANAEcgGnHWrHn
"As he should, he doesn't need girls like you being involved."402Please respect copyright.PENANA7GaXiY6Bi0
402Please respect copyright.PENANARroflT4Uq0
"Girls like me?" I laughed.402Please respect copyright.PENANA0MVpTaRh4L
402Please respect copyright.PENANANAfTUmB5ya
"Pretty and innocent," He winked. "I'm shocked he swapped out Naomi for you."402Please respect copyright.PENANAg2E6rg4xEb
402Please respect copyright.PENANAi9kLII99lV
"Ouch."402Please respect copyright.PENANAAUzPQQuEFI
402Please respect copyright.PENANAwX5ScRjk2F
He took a puff. "I don't mean it as a negative, cutie. Naomi is a fucking bitch, but a girl like her is definitely cut out for this business."402Please respect copyright.PENANAsO4bNpJuUz
402Please respect copyright.PENANArqthE0sWUS
"Well, why don't you enlighten me then," I smiled and leaned forward.402Please respect copyright.PENANAdRWuZyfoND
402Please respect copyright.PENANAm0blhD05Mv
He shook his head and blew smoke out towards me. "I don't think I should piss your boss off."402Please respect copyright.PENANAMzDqGjYKR4
402Please respect copyright.PENANARmLGTE8gSN
"Why? Would he kill you?" I teased but honestly wanted to know.402Please respect copyright.PENANAsaBn82Qdta
402Please respect copyright.PENANA7KUblHFvLA
Erik started to lean towards me again to respond but stopped as someone approached us. His eyes darting behind me.402Please respect copyright.PENANAXQGCrHxhjD
402Please respect copyright.PENANAVPbGKBWs1F
"Let's go, Roberta."402Please respect copyright.PENANAUZS9QLydfo
402Please respect copyright.PENANA99Hd712mkq
I closed my notebook and looked up at Kalon. His eyes still on Erik. He looked super pissed off.402Please respect copyright.PENANAtjHFmBqIzj
402Please respect copyright.PENANALJNHc9uCVc
"See you around." Erik nodded at the two of us and moved out of the booth quickly.402Please respect copyright.PENANAiQp5r3s5ix
402Please respect copyright.PENANAaQeMqvaAPI
Kalon watched as he made his exit and looked down at me, his features stone cold. "What did he say to you?"402Please respect copyright.PENANASU7gY2Uyf6
402Please respect copyright.PENANA0yMWNGpACH
"Nothing, really." I lied.402Please respect copyright.PENANAr1VAJoMQnV
402Please respect copyright.PENANAYecFl1eXxH
I didn't want Kalon to have any reason to hunt Erik down for something so little. I knew Kalon was not a typical billionaire, I wasn't that dumb. I just couldn't get anyone to really admit the full truth to me.402Please respect copyright.PENANAMgWmzLsVXV
402Please respect copyright.PENANAGmsvcHPDhB
"Don't lie to me, Roberta." He said sternly.402Please respect copyright.PENANA9xpGwYVzZb
402Please respect copyright.PENANAHWJ58t6L3W
My chest tightened. "I'm not, sir."402Please respect copyright.PENANA9JEHdljM01
402Please respect copyright.PENANAGDebAa3roR
He sighed, angrily. "It's Kalon, dammit."402Please respect copyright.PENANAXnbwrX9FLD
402Please respect copyright.PENANAYDSLETepgT
"I'm sorry."402Please respect copyright.PENANA6n9xBqG7ll
402Please respect copyright.PENANAdUVDm2ezwr
He pinched the bridge of his nose and motioned for me to walk ahead of him. "Just head out to the car, please."402Please respect copyright.PENANAtqMdqltobZ
402Please respect copyright.PENANAqnZMKbRste
I nodded and made my way out of the room. The tightness in my chest seemed to only get worse and I felt like a fucking idiot. It was my first real day with him and I already was pissing him off.402Please respect copyright.PENANAQIgZ1c2NPj
402Please respect copyright.PENANA70ntWKSMJX
I could feel his eyes burning into my back as we walked through the casino. I just knew he was going to report back to Naomi about what a failure I was at this. Maybe he would just off me and end my misery before it got worse.402Please respect copyright.PENANAhJlvSXSlGV
402Please respect copyright.PENANAQa2f6nA4rL
The guard at the front of the casino nodded as the two of us started to make our exit towards his car. I really just wanted to go home and cry at this point.402Please respect copyright.PENANAnGHgCXCn5w
402Please respect copyright.PENANAaOscxUtu2r
I don't know why I even cared about how he reacted to me. I barely knew anything about him and was nothing but a disposable employee to him.402Please respect copyright.PENANACjQ5RAfgd7
402Please respect copyright.PENANAKQjRyt2ugi
I'm an idiot for even questioning my feelings towards him. He's my boss, that's it.402Please respect copyright.PENANAMIEEomL9OM
402Please respect copyright.PENANAlkE4JKkOmc
"Wait."402Please respect copyright.PENANAY2kgS9kuDW
402Please respect copyright.PENANA39wY1tqfKT
I stopped in my tracks as Kalon pulled me back towards him by my waist. I felt the stiffness of his stomach against my back and looked up towards him, confused.402Please respect copyright.PENANAaXjfdb31gf
402Please respect copyright.PENANA9fo2800ddV
Before Kalon had time to even react gunfire begun to ring out around us, shattering the windows. I heard the people around us scream in horror as my body hit the building.402Please respect copyright.PENANA4PP3DFaVDr
