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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBWifcMPQd
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3tNPhYEuz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPN6g4dwkQ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBll4RC7QaL
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxvnn9Kv14
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kSOY75G2C
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGBRgDtnGm
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK8NQd7XHq
And then the next he was unleashing a desire inside of me like nothing I've felt before.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69r8Obf1N0
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv4eLYn0gC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjSJKyJaHW
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgNPS2C6z4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxNgINqHEW
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGtIT2bDjD
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBWlkoapXf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyiJjQJU4P
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMz6KllgX8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROwISiX8GW
"So what are we doing today?" I nudged Landon's side.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoXLtRBnHo
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbufHO9mEdp
He eyed me carefully. "Same as always...right?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalwPIKoO0z
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcJawKPMHF
I sighed and leaned onto my elbows. "Right."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvjaMuL9Ab
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYWYa87833
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyT6MBhAgI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctGjFyembn
"I know, I just wish we had more to do," I whined pitifully.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVK0baOvOK
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQUufg08XR
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvPJrKiY7S
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGn1le25H5
"Okay, mom."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpiqUmvdAw
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMakh2CR8Av
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiComkQMIW
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTFxtb0BON
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3cbXidp2M
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOpgIo5HEj
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MAT8fUaeH
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbniXGaS7S
"Hey!" I snapped and rubbed the back of it. "I was grabbing that."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtcvae3tw4
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3mCaJ5znh
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQew4OV9zX
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TnirRraGu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcTux0Te2C
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEtwdDqqCk
"Ladies go first," May scolded him and he smiled sheepishly.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGvDgmn2Kq
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup6CYNvlSk
"Sorry."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRpTd7LQk0
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyeIbcgEO3
"It's fine," I muttered and finally picked my sandwich from the plate. "Where are Finn and Liam?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqVyIF09GJ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX71RkqqQKI
He shrugged, "Probably on the way. I know Liam was on the phone with his girlfriend."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUCYGSivYO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0kxQZmGjk
This was news to me. "Liam? Liam has a girlfriend?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjur2QORhU
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcrKIBAma2
"I'm not that bad looking."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQL3twlxuzb
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5UqGKLg8c
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wH2EjCMoa
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3mELsimTC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hrbTpLlv0
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoS4rdtvgz
"Keep telling yourself that," Samuel howled and Liam tossed a chip at him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0CXcyX1Xs
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDCLl3rL2c
May slapped him on the back, "No messes!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bvZPcYqct
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Jfae38uGr
"Sorry, May." They said in unison. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HEySYbV4a
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcM8fYwNLak
Samuel looked up at me as he took another bite. "So, Quinn, have you been to the family club yet?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIV5P1DQQde
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyFEgwwfM6
"Uh...the what?" I laughed.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhfOh4HuAO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1XfuqSkQy
He rolled his eyes, "The main club the family owns? Girls, alcohol, dr-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmoxcCg7Tf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAO4QrEc6u
Landon cut him off. "Robbie has already had her share of club adventures. Mr. Wolfe doesn't want her getting involved."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD1GDzi5o0
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH44gbFGIEV
"I heard all about her little adventure that got Carlos-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCpjGfpBxj
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQSlDQMnM0
"Can you just shut the fuck up?" Landon snapped harshly.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAd5s4GAHcI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOT5a5bu7sn
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaRGaC6Ixo
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0Alduim0o
"Landon? What's wrong?" I whispered to him and he shook his head.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVrizgGres
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxnVgddESQ
"I don't want to get into it."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4niLMjLCcA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnANB2uyYsF
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyReXkvZbs0
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzP4Lk7tr0n
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFaBpnxV7s
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDRDn1J0WR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfj6KSJdFg
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTdUwkaJe3
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYxHXk7AHZ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRI89Inm2qS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXhoo1xoPS
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmP5hbzXxhG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWJAUAOfyO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSTzE2vKdq
Kalon Wolfe may be a cold, heartless monster, but I couldn't find it in me to hate him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPHBZyTCJT
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1xBm8ui2F
"What's going on, Quinn?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySSYVdVCkA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO7fQyYMZn
I looked back at Samuel as he stepped onto the balcony next to me and lit up a cigarette.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0UmlEfpeY
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJK61524eDA
"Just enjoying the weather."
He inhaled deeply. "Has Landon always been so protective of you?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqw5tGvXkg
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFgizEJT3T
I looked at him, confused. "Protective?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46pzWcvTh6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuwqebM38W
"Yeah," He blew out a string of smoke rings. "Seems like he doesn't want you to know anything."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGq8xrfyK1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpNe1bRdyf
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlPkMScp0f
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIuq7D4QBM
He nodded and took another drag. "I heard you got him into some deep shit with his brother and the boss."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipEDRDaYC6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8dwr11cc0
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h5Ng8sgYv
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxGhNMIfER
"Well, if you ever want to have real fun, I'm your man." Samuel laughed and smiled widely. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlxRYOLm69
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQCCFTJMqz
"How so?" I asked, eyeing him curiously.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93ch5ao7Gy
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrdxFgU1sG
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0LheDMDeF
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLKO5xEcMz
This was news to me. "Anybody can go under contract then?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zjgoQEgto
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxC7pzYcMw
"Yep," He grinned crookedly at me. "Even you, Quinn."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8d97JqvMs
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAU0gnGkeid
"I don't want to piss anyone off, especially Ka- I mean, Mr. Wolfe."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaY8DOw9QhK
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sYrYFpkFz
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvspVCVOUMd
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6X5oTHayD
"He's here?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdMUbkpfJ6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2xxvQYd5M
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB4PYCxDjl
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYegdpcDW8
"What makes you say that?" I laughed.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLdeqH5fxw
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9ovzAK6UF
He looked me up and down. "Don't be stupid."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcKOcv9HV1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bg6JaXT62
"Won't he be pissed though if he hears I'm there? Especially, after what happened the last time."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrG1Vx1vdy
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme9vmo8soE
"As I said, Axel has his ways," He winked. "Don't worry about Mr. Wolfe, you deserve to have fun too."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspK1VDiQsk
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTGNae30Mw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwOjlX7MPH
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoB2sUuYr5
"Don't worry about the kid," Samuel said when he noticed my gaze. "Jax is just protective of him."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXNPSiCI5B
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPc98JqH4BF
"Okay," I muttered and looked back up at him. "When can we go?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIarCkGThfV

_419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYCgC8mNrx

"Keep up, Quinn!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGWKKt475N
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimyizlAq1U
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKldUeJxC1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOq6gFVnRD7
"You could walk slower!" I huffed at him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94zy77sbAB
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk4ar1bbsW
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JwC9D2PEt
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN6Z72mTA6
Liam kicked a rock back in my direction. "Pick better shoes, princess."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsqAJn4RN1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVvSP5mgqP
"Dick!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWZzr2alpO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKwXk3W80O
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6efjcCWnEY
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2wDVU8DSZ
"Are we at the right place?" I asked as we rounded the corner.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9q3zUo6ljR
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdEG5o39Pm
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57PmLTVE19
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3xOSpPuwK
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEJU0rcm2U
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc5VghDUon
"Where's Axel?" Samuel said and flashed what looked like an ID.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmavam7bF8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPqlJMgQVZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l0VXRVhUk
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B46cdL5ps
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY7FhGucAf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0NWZNTJZT
It was weird to see anyone who worked with Kalon dressed in something so normal.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaLNDQJViw
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQlRJlu8MJ
"Ahh! Look who you brought with you!" He cheered and reached out to grasp my hands. "How have you been?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYbGK6pt9w
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzm2D1uRqT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVhC3z4nEX
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBi9pTbt09
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn1PgOr63n
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3elQ6XVd2
"You could say that."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Le6CXjwJC
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBozHU7fL6
Axel grinned unevenly and brought my palm up to kiss it. "I'm so glad you are here."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIviXAgVGC
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNC6X6rgvgy
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6mME2a2p2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdS0i7Ibohd
"Me too."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUWlQ8WhqU
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQnFpq7KNa
"Alright, kids," Samuel fake gagged. "Let's get inside because daddy needs a drink."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCiCkzSypi
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwO7EkTq2D
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMFwKkmJEl
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKBRvb7BB9
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0WZ2Hlx2D
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VTfZu7wZB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyyAweYoLB
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgjmP0pvre
"This is Kalon's?" I said to Axel and he nodded.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvtGqh2yBd
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5DBqfCxCX
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzme2uO9d0L
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIxjH9IfSt
"Money laundering?" I laughed.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMq5fRgbd8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhV6bCfpPU
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVgTTJtbj4
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7hsKJmn4n
"Seems like a lot to handle."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAv2dYYQct
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdsYjbvFJK
"Yeah, but that's why you get guys like me involved." He winked and playfully bumped my shoulder. "Want a drink?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuNTISUpOt
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oxQOoHSv2
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIei2S0XyXb
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9pDGb07i4
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7SAthmaLj
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TVrwr1NU0
"Is that so?" I teased and took the shot glass from him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKvgZtfULe
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuyQDsvQcV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzWU2wBbrO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTe4fyPmsOt
"Why didn't you text me?" He asked and handed me the second shot.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlT0HBPCH7
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSlAE5jJto
My cheeks blushed. "I'm sorry...I just-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW5FVJjwjw
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoV2cCp4vf3
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhoLlFowcR
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZlRsIraFG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeazlL7iniu
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlL2U5dYcnE
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCZajPNRIs
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sO83daE13
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sMutRNVry
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezDW51raHF
"Another?" Axel piped and motioned for the bartender.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle6IfEEoOG
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4joPrxHNcP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyF5q0dxFL4
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSyaaAJbOM
He rolled his eyes and tinked his glass on mine again. "Let me handle him."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uyIBvXGwh
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX9ybKPGOd
"Are the two of you close?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXnTrr7kqa
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpSKpuZ2bu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrok1zZ5bIU
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nIe3yYaqG
"What about you?" 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgLZMayd9y
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnM9BOzDaea
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnoB4uWhLM
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw6wqcWuUD
"Do you enjoy working with him?" I eyed him curiously.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfooIApQDf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj97JlvD7ng
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07Ew7MYVgD
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOsjEaQLLn
"Sounds like the life." 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD5toUtzea
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuy2yCQ1Env
"It's not all it seems," He murmured and let his eyes wander over me again. "Sometimes you get really lonely."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMjcHgP0hU
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRIYP3ODtO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6MXYN4Fwi
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqE45L4RooW
I leaned in closer to him and smirked. "You poor thing."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1vBVId59Q
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZuEaNQ6iY
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUhxP9cOeh
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaG9DdY4S5p
"Want to get out of here?" He whispered lowly. His lips just inches away from my own.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumX3HofvBI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrn7qQTGRi
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDhMjKH0Ns
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRz6p1rcO8
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdD7vqmQjvO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MpWKeEO9K
"I'm sorry?" I laughed as she pulled away. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtpcmKSMKO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtu9t9eGt52
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yvcKOcfxL
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yMIYBUjT9
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9EQokANx6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ981U0DL6Cm
"You work for Kalon Wolfe?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWF8mFheDI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR45Iy9YBAY
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEBUK0ej8T
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQPVx4IGxN
Axel cut her off, "She's not a dancer, doll."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtA1XVlKpF
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xGVV4Yz2E
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUSldAhF3y
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwczDeSGc1
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMIixsj484
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9myAmFq4D6
"O-oh, well, thank you. It was nice meeting you, Maria."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzfwkPUjsI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDkrRzUuDD
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtq4odsx59
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3gw5nSYaW
"What was that about?" I asked Axel, noticing he was still staring at them too.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJaTrcOTqS
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqoWFnZLkr
He shook his head. "Don't worry about it."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYloP6yQL07
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0K9wsoJpO
"Seems like Maria isn't a fan?" I teased and leaned against the bar. 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhlQ0QjLZy
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMam3XKu40G
"Probably because she's my ex-girlfriend."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50d69jEW4U
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVF8LXCzaGh
My jaw dropped. "You dated Maria?"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIXA5fRV9W
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqRURR8x8Q
"Am I too ugly for her?" He scoffed and ordered two more drinks.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4AvZRRA2v
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qINEyUI1u
"No, I just would've thought with Lia-"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWgktWY0DV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qUXhN6Wlo
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7G63oUJv6J
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBlGMvA6Xg
"Try me.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2hYZ7cCEX
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG54o5ove1
He smirked at me and looked behind him. "Maybe another time."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy0xIClzrm
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uicRUosuk
"Quinn! Get your ass up there!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDHp3eO6XV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRoP6e6NCj
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuIRfWjRe2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUm50jwt17M
"No!No!" I waved back at them and laughed.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem0dlReTsA
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewgfk7fPDT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnl5z178mEj
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQsJ9rEOZv
I rolled my eyes. "Finn, I can't fucking dance. Look at me, I have nothing to show and no rhythm."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhsddgn0R8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrH3eLXwgU
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD9p1iv0Oc
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGJbpsoL5B
"You're so lucky I am drunk as hell."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMajQ8FUSXS
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXjeE1XAmL
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FkBjIGP42
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCUiGY3nHe
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTKExkMjpC
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT99uZSaUX
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kBs8wYg33
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRneS9EiQyb
"Take it off, baby!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ156jYM6szY
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoShXQEpYRs
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcf1aNbRnM
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZXv56LQJ8
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPv62qStwM
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwhFqZQBlQ
"Come on, Quinn! Show us what you are hiding."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyPE3sovxG
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStyAxo92f1
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX8f4XGxxt
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4WkU8xhCs
"Fuck it!" I muttered and reached down to pull my dress off.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMwbOWzXem
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfmzXMxjoD
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBMBlpKSr7
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QupOp41mk
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QaczAF0Ch
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqPDlG76L3
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71b6ZKHgin
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55canWZUna
I felt so good. I felt so alive and so-419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMFnO38BPT
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbitZu80JlX
*BANG* *BANG* 419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WVlgTJBGL
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7g5SWUsJx
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdV4bnAiUB
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZ3R9rsxIX
"Turn the fucking music off now!"419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSQBJ60suF
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU3ixbCQqJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdkPSEwXC3
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nUnd1sATa
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd3wDeBzKh
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsOkvNXFbO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcff809Cfa
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqskP9Td1o1
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8qty2jxhm
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQywKneujgG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNLlkPuLgi
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQbeMeN6by
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkr7OYNZ1Y
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAjZ5RnXLz
"Get up and go."419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMOo57zUIo
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZCcIOIw8Q
I nodded and stood. I felt so low and defeated. I had fucked up again.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcvLdHGKYk
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglxkUExaiJ
I'm so fucking dead.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyu20da6km
