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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA2NtbyNm1RP
315Please respect copyright.PENANAtNgeCfzHU8
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAamHjVdvDIZ
315Please respect copyright.PENANAwO3NrTGBvw
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA78E0ZyEOTN
315Please respect copyright.PENANAa87l6cpjMn
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAGAObTgwQSs
315Please respect copyright.PENANAe6vZ3Nd1Oq
And then the next he was unleashing a desire inside of me like nothing I've felt before.315Please respect copyright.PENANAhmNiJ6Ybv3
315Please respect copyright.PENANAPVqSfkKLRi
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAxVbku2xAn9
315Please respect copyright.PENANAC6ACYyty8v
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAzwcUSy2xJY
315Please respect copyright.PENANAr9lGRQLkz3
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAxOXWgwqnmD
315Please respect copyright.PENANAN4ntmXJ0ou
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAlkRAUxzHeB
315Please respect copyright.PENANAxRkcnIWgMD
"So what are we doing today?" I nudged Landon's side.315Please respect copyright.PENANAIUsaC09bh8
315Please respect copyright.PENANAUnhOElDfPx
He eyed me carefully. "Same as always...right?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAcW0ehhwBwR
315Please respect copyright.PENANA5neKjbY8Ts
I sighed and leaned onto my elbows. "Right."315Please respect copyright.PENANAK7XHr3QE0Q
315Please respect copyright.PENANAK0JfzgYcmC
"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.315Please respect copyright.PENANALCrv10E3jM
315Please respect copyright.PENANAedtHDf3ZhK
"I know, I just wish we had more to do," I whined pitifully.315Please respect copyright.PENANAtjnhk4nV02
315Please respect copyright.PENANAL3KFJKg1Cx
"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?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAww6gJgFV6B
315Please respect copyright.PENANA98wwQs9HH7
"Okay, mom."315Please respect copyright.PENANApbz8UPNs5T
315Please respect copyright.PENANAJvg8z3Dhf8
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA01V8RvZFVj
315Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1GtkN1GF6
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANARKExGJsTNj
315Please respect copyright.PENANAaya9mo8wos
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAHgHCnYcObd
315Please respect copyright.PENANA1dCKGS988Y
"Hey!" I snapped and rubbed the back of it. "I was grabbing that."315Please respect copyright.PENANADAKJtqMqJS
315Please respect copyright.PENANAx3Dy26lGrr
"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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAHz3dZ4QXce
315Please respect copyright.PENANAAOGaaZswBq
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAiDOkCP7C1E
315Please respect copyright.PENANA72JaUe0o0x
"Ladies go first," May scolded him and he smiled sheepishly.315Please respect copyright.PENANAIU6PfjKSgp
315Please respect copyright.PENANACXob6bJl96
"Sorry."315Please respect copyright.PENANAD97hC9RECJ
315Please respect copyright.PENANAjQ3aPf1h3G
"It's fine," I muttered and finally picked my sandwich from the plate. "Where are Finn and Liam?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAhCasMDHeUH
315Please respect copyright.PENANAYWRdByFfXU
He shrugged, "Probably on the way. I know Liam was on the phone with his girlfriend."315Please respect copyright.PENANAYj3UOkYFjn
315Please respect copyright.PENANAnhZvbJhHL0
This was news to me. "Liam? Liam has a girlfriend?"315Please respect copyright.PENANApCbY4cVEfU
315Please respect copyright.PENANAQBv0raNbqB
"I'm not that bad looking."315Please respect copyright.PENANAenrqwpPDn8
315Please respect copyright.PENANA5Gyhrk0QNj
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. 315Please respect copyright.PENANAilvneQjpi9
315Please respect copyright.PENANACfBzSVdKEX
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAjFbxeoiyUP
315Please respect copyright.PENANAq44WEa01zO
"Keep telling yourself that," Samuel howled and Liam tossed a chip at him.315Please respect copyright.PENANAqwsmlUi5s6
315Please respect copyright.PENANAxqYOydUm5v
May slapped him on the back, "No messes!"315Please respect copyright.PENANAGYBBiUEXiP
315Please respect copyright.PENANA7IlCMjB0Hm
"Sorry, May." They said in unison. 315Please respect copyright.PENANALFytPEmg2l
315Please respect copyright.PENANAXXUkT5T7Tj
Samuel looked up at me as he took another bite. "So, Quinn, have you been to the family club yet?"315Please respect copyright.PENANATlVfrRFr0j
315Please respect copyright.PENANA6gVGKeqHis
"Uh...the what?" I laughed.315Please respect copyright.PENANAgKRvNGYIBb
315Please respect copyright.PENANARby8tfggM4
He rolled his eyes, "The main club the family owns? Girls, alcohol, dr-"315Please respect copyright.PENANAqZOa706745
315Please respect copyright.PENANAUU63OJZNLy
Landon cut him off. "Robbie has already had her share of club adventures. Mr. Wolfe doesn't want her getting involved."315Please respect copyright.PENANAP7SOFHVUgz
315Please respect copyright.PENANAwgelcUxQ8m
"I heard all about her little adventure that got Carlos-"315Please respect copyright.PENANAmJjcZEb1Kg
315Please respect copyright.PENANA5Mj2alBAtK
"Can you just shut the fuck up?" Landon snapped harshly.315Please respect copyright.PENANAv9cQwwQEcd
315Please respect copyright.PENANAbkrbNurkP8
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA7QQn9V7pu5
315Please respect copyright.PENANATkiQuGCMN2
"Landon? What's wrong?" I whispered to him and he shook his head.315Please respect copyright.PENANAI8WHo9NlS1
315Please respect copyright.PENANAahfm7xMf7w
"I don't want to get into it."315Please respect copyright.PENANAY1frT1BT1K
315Please respect copyright.PENANAeaBOP9xkfm
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAnqkoUNYhqo
315Please respect copyright.PENANAXfjNynswD0
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA1GSOx7Gy79
315Please respect copyright.PENANAkC3WtktDGf
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAesKMlnZQCR
315Please respect copyright.PENANApgklIdUTVW
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAb0HjsFvEH2
315Please respect copyright.PENANAE9ViRoafdM
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAy6BYpgNRHL
315Please respect copyright.PENANAJgXUEfqZLh
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA93GNriyoi8
315Please respect copyright.PENANAl6vtlHvtJE
Kalon Wolfe may be a cold, heartless monster, but I couldn't find it in me to hate him.315Please respect copyright.PENANAAyJEgkelUx
315Please respect copyright.PENANACrGCoQe1o9
"What's going on, Quinn?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAjfVyQyNa2x
315Please respect copyright.PENANAHS0gWDy77c
I looked back at Samuel as he stepped onto the balcony next to me and lit up a cigarette.315Please respect copyright.PENANAOCij0FxdbI
315Please respect copyright.PENANAxxkoODKvDF
"Just enjoying the weather."
He inhaled deeply. "Has Landon always been so protective of you?"315Please respect copyright.PENANA518Suyh0VT
315Please respect copyright.PENANAxTqjNoPnrc
I looked at him, confused. "Protective?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAS03o4pf2ZX
315Please respect copyright.PENANAS6avT2x3xz
"Yeah," He blew out a string of smoke rings. "Seems like he doesn't want you to know anything."315Please respect copyright.PENANA88OxyknlzF
315Please respect copyright.PENANAK4FiJR7ivo
"Well, I'm not an idiot about what goes on around here, but Landon is just trying to keep out of trouble.315Please respect copyright.PENANAkKpj8SxKRW
315Please respect copyright.PENANA11Vyh2mTsn
He nodded and took another drag. "I heard you got him into some deep shit with his brother and the boss."315Please respect copyright.PENANAuyMCTzoZFD
315Please respect copyright.PENANAYJ46ZpgQ4R
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANA25j1mQGFGC
315Please respect copyright.PENANA05c4ogrfTf
"Well, if you ever want to have real fun, I'm your man." Samuel laughed and smiled widely. 315Please respect copyright.PENANAhw7224ejg0
315Please respect copyright.PENANAqNu22TxeSE
"How so?" I asked, eyeing him curiously.315Please respect copyright.PENANAEyCYRDwVJv
315Please respect copyright.PENANADss2bREtNT
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAJiecZQ7RGM
315Please respect copyright.PENANAfDaLVSFdTT
This was news to me. "Anybody can go under contract then?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4Zaio1gKv
315Please respect copyright.PENANA04VJKJD8yW
"Yep," He grinned crookedly at me. "Even you, Quinn."315Please respect copyright.PENANApfVG45Y3eQ
315Please respect copyright.PENANANdAalAalWU
"I don't want to piss anyone off, especially Ka- I mean, Mr. Wolfe."315Please respect copyright.PENANAISXls0Wbye
315Please respect copyright.PENANA4XNrQAhclx
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."315Please respect copyright.PENANA8WInyX2KCZ
315Please respect copyright.PENANA7BQWmE0yNo
"He's here?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAcAxa2HU5T6
315Please respect copyright.PENANALXpapO8aEs
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAnrGpabr4Nb
315Please respect copyright.PENANAO1THiX3OhL
"What makes you say that?" I laughed.315Please respect copyright.PENANAkuYrVi9jvz
315Please respect copyright.PENANAOWV1jsmi1D
He looked me up and down. "Don't be stupid."315Please respect copyright.PENANA9BfROhkaMr
315Please respect copyright.PENANAXxwSyxpLOg
"Won't he be pissed though if he hears I'm there? Especially, after what happened the last time."315Please respect copyright.PENANArPhJH9hQFn
315Please respect copyright.PENANA9iZpCuFeAD
"As I said, Axel has his ways," He winked. "Don't worry about Mr. Wolfe, you deserve to have fun too."315Please respect copyright.PENANAbWhCxB5zP8
315Please respect copyright.PENANAiiiQDbiaEK
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAeFjFjCD51X
315Please respect copyright.PENANAOzlevlCjXg
"Don't worry about the kid," Samuel said when he noticed my gaze. "Jax is just protective of him."315Please respect copyright.PENANAa8XToFkPBQ
315Please respect copyright.PENANAAJUTdapOY1
"Okay," I muttered and looked back up at him. "When can we go?"315Please respect copyright.PENANA5slUSjFX7x
315Please respect copyright.PENANAoYROvCW4FF
_315Please respect copyright.PENANAuVuUMM4Zj9
315Please respect copyright.PENANA1hTkjxEDa2
"Keep up, Quinn!"315Please respect copyright.PENANATsq6p3QxZr
315Please respect copyright.PENANASY0C6w8XPG
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAPEGw1vXSFr
315Please respect copyright.PENANAgKVjUSWDUC
"You could walk slower!" I huffed at him.315Please respect copyright.PENANA31zm9LZVBs
315Please respect copyright.PENANA8YVvrvnCnr
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAbwyXNt52kV
315Please respect copyright.PENANAvhuv3Jfuv8
Liam kicked a rock back in my direction. "Pick better shoes, princess."315Please respect copyright.PENANArxoqFbFXhD
315Please respect copyright.PENANAsHuwjTDuiY
"Dick!"315Please respect copyright.PENANAk7nfhpIbI3
315Please respect copyright.PENANAdpREPXOCyM
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAjjULWEFip8
315Please respect copyright.PENANAf1jCZVyRUp
"Are we at the right place?" I asked as we rounded the corner.315Please respect copyright.PENANARZIvnRzzbz
315Please respect copyright.PENANASQDeyohSBy
"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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA6wO9ye8U6K
315Please respect copyright.PENANACx1dJ1Nk5Q
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA5LSpAnjXzv
315Please respect copyright.PENANAaZMdCI5CJl
"Where's Axel?" Samuel said and flashed what looked like an ID.315Please respect copyright.PENANAdrlwrUWZmn
315Please respect copyright.PENANA48NN7Dkeu0
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. 315Please respect copyright.PENANAoeMzrigNs8
315Please respect copyright.PENANAQopim2m2ke
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAUt7GoLxYMr
315Please respect copyright.PENANAC5pZRGOBpX
It was weird to see anyone who worked with Kalon dressed in something so normal.315Please respect copyright.PENANAVuVIgD5FP5
315Please respect copyright.PENANA4B6cjb09Sz
"Ahh! Look who you brought with you!" He cheered and reached out to grasp my hands. "How have you been?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAg7BpuDL62m
315Please respect copyright.PENANAtPAziqyOYV
I blushed a bit when I caught his mismatched eyes roaming over my red velvet dress. "I've been okay, just working."315Please respect copyright.PENANAdrbNGSBXWS
315Please respect copyright.PENANABt7Wllt5jp
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANADc0M3Tq3uJ
315Please respect copyright.PENANAkS8rF2Nb0E
"You could say that."315Please respect copyright.PENANAZLKo3z9PFc
315Please respect copyright.PENANAlUjwnHIzdS
Axel grinned unevenly and brought my palm up to kiss it. "I'm so glad you are here."315Please respect copyright.PENANAa766bfuemO
315Please respect copyright.PENANA6SKcm05gYV
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANARwXNvwHc2S
315Please respect copyright.PENANABgY9WUzz8N
"Me too."315Please respect copyright.PENANAYjzh5Czvkq
315Please respect copyright.PENANAd1Gh4EMu2O
"Alright, kids," Samuel fake gagged. "Let's get inside because daddy needs a drink."315Please respect copyright.PENANAlH0a3dmkhr
315Please respect copyright.PENANAkMrbrNatlw
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAo633WKEZEN
315Please respect copyright.PENANARV4L7krTws
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA0iq6ZyfUZE
315Please respect copyright.PENANAy5eZ0qCtIi
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAGonyVmRrJ5
315Please respect copyright.PENANAXepO4bhqwz
"This is Kalon's?" I said to Axel and he nodded.315Please respect copyright.PENANAiWfAIMJckB
315Please respect copyright.PENANAOctwc3jUL4
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANASgpytjjLfJ
315Please respect copyright.PENANAxK6ocZVeiO
"Money laundering?" I laughed.315Please respect copyright.PENANA7QHrG5cM7P
315Please respect copyright.PENANAbWF762DQgZ
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAMtMmLLET5d
315Please respect copyright.PENANApAQQfIRT08
"Seems like a lot to handle."315Please respect copyright.PENANA9fL2u14wX5
315Please respect copyright.PENANAXEos5BgiE2
"Yeah, but that's why you get guys like me involved." He winked and playfully bumped my shoulder. "Want a drink?"315Please respect copyright.PENANADZYvDE4d4U
315Please respect copyright.PENANAIuLiR42kwG
"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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA97Jm3WME41
315Please respect copyright.PENANAjuOHeMmZoz
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANADKhuWx4jvY
315Please respect copyright.PENANAEL90WIAtis
"Is that so?" I teased and took the shot glass from him.315Please respect copyright.PENANAwyRdtwBDcr
315Please respect copyright.PENANALFu6VJgmGH
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAsqfbkBx6Ln
315Please respect copyright.PENANAC8so4MIwL7
"Why didn't you text me?" He asked and handed me the second shot.315Please respect copyright.PENANAFpKVX09hFR
315Please respect copyright.PENANAaCOWdCQ3AJ
My cheeks blushed. "I'm sorry...I just-"315Please respect copyright.PENANA5AsYGwuzot
315Please respect copyright.PENANArlEFKRbMAT
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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAIEFH5BiFqf
315Please respect copyright.PENANA21aOBsSZMM
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAJHaUbEIhCQ
315Please respect copyright.PENANA1BEtP59Xo7
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAkcyk9iOQHx
315Please respect copyright.PENANAvp68ZDNstp
"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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAkI1RJm6IGy
315Please respect copyright.PENANAQG9wSiXo44
"Another?" Axel piped and motioned for the bartender.315Please respect copyright.PENANAGHASZWnGfP
315Please respect copyright.PENANAHklrNieel9
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."315Please respect copyright.PENANADCkDL8hdVs
315Please respect copyright.PENANADQuhon1Poy
He rolled his eyes and tinked his glass on mine again. "Let me handle him."315Please respect copyright.PENANA8K1AVH73dl
315Please respect copyright.PENANA1E9LtnUr83
"Are the two of you close?"315Please respect copyright.PENANArm9ci4mR4c
315Please respect copyright.PENANAvzMGvx9UFa
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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAKTHzvSJ1WA
315Please respect copyright.PENANAI6wJ5qGxgb
"What about you?" 315Please respect copyright.PENANA5cTuvauPB1
315Please respect copyright.PENANAFYmTHykzPO
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANALnfkDelMss
315Please respect copyright.PENANAf2yb8bOMf4
"Do you enjoy working with him?" I eyed him curiously.315Please respect copyright.PENANAMhzHbdGoUY
315Please respect copyright.PENANAaF9FBrMfVd
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAvDILv6ZCGD
315Please respect copyright.PENANAF3KjfIG0uV
"Sounds like the life." 315Please respect copyright.PENANAV9Y7l6V5HC

"It's not all it seems," He murmured and let his eyes wander over me again. "Sometimes you get really lonely."315Please respect copyright.PENANAL4EEZeFX6Y
315Please respect copyright.PENANAEAfakeUwwa
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAeCuyfCZcbb
315Please respect copyright.PENANAMu5ZB4gyY8
I leaned in closer to him and smirked. "You poor thing."315Please respect copyright.PENANASaNeS0yug3
315Please respect copyright.PENANAvXmnxG8aBy
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAgfJcaN71M9
315Please respect copyright.PENANABTmVzQcTsn
"Want to get out of here?" He whispered lowly. His lips just inches away from my own.315Please respect copyright.PENANA55KWNyvRl4
315Please respect copyright.PENANAfPLI46srfM
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA800IT0v9zY
315Please respect copyright.PENANANdkFb920Cx
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAkzTR4tvuex
315Please respect copyright.PENANA43O6aocC7V
"I'm sorry?" I laughed as she pulled away. 315Please respect copyright.PENANADKFPMVUymK
315Please respect copyright.PENANAyVi6XA4dmG
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAArP106VXsO
315Please respect copyright.PENANAOhlNVtBmjt
"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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAa6CwdIf5Ze
315Please respect copyright.PENANANppMpMpx8c
"You work for Kalon Wolfe?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAcEdBkeh4t3
315Please respect copyright.PENANAwOT1GD0cTz
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-"315Please respect copyright.PENANAGDCelMlbSW
315Please respect copyright.PENANAaIM3b3rTLg
Axel cut her off, "She's not a dancer, doll."315Please respect copyright.PENANAoimBbZRYxJ
315Please respect copyright.PENANAHzRgsntc2p
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAQaj0fTkNUY
315Please respect copyright.PENANAD8HreoanZU
"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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAn8HlqqLfP6
315Please respect copyright.PENANAO00DjVhEjZ
"O-oh, well, thank you. It was nice meeting you, Maria."315Please respect copyright.PENANAsivOsblFoH
315Please respect copyright.PENANA5xyVTg3ehO
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAql2u0Qzkzn
315Please respect copyright.PENANARgZtjFo8OS
"What was that about?" I asked Axel, noticing he was still staring at them too.315Please respect copyright.PENANAQv55DuL13q
315Please respect copyright.PENANA8eJd2zd7Rc
He shook his head. "Don't worry about it."315Please respect copyright.PENANABFQpU1FDV2
315Please respect copyright.PENANAu8T7As4Y7i
"Seems like Maria isn't a fan?" I teased and leaned against the bar. 315Please respect copyright.PENANAkYjeP7Hws3
315Please respect copyright.PENANATqBVyiHsup
"Probably because she's my ex-girlfriend."315Please respect copyright.PENANAhxbDOYvg2K
315Please respect copyright.PENANAstx89dkNtV
My jaw dropped. "You dated Maria?"315Please respect copyright.PENANAhZdEYBkvKs
315Please respect copyright.PENANAscuNAHYQNk
"Am I too ugly for her?" He scoffed and ordered two more drinks.315Please respect copyright.PENANAJFYcQpLIGu
315Please respect copyright.PENANAW7GXBGkOOL
"No, I just would've thought with Lia-"315Please respect copyright.PENANATjHNrvGcES
315Please respect copyright.PENANA6CNT3O1CEV
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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAcaAFKNF53x
315Please respect copyright.PENANAfAX7vSQ082
"Try me.315Please respect copyright.PENANApBLc4VPHIW
315Please respect copyright.PENANAA1WW34fDiV
He smirked at me and looked behind him. "Maybe another time."315Please respect copyright.PENANA4Cq7SGvCiN
315Please respect copyright.PENANAe5nRrbmUCG
"Quinn! Get your ass up there!"315Please respect copyright.PENANAf5pDQBSsah
315Please respect copyright.PENANA43hsWfMJvD
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAyQ51cosKla
315Please respect copyright.PENANA0hsPjzeP20
"No!No!" I waved back at them and laughed.315Please respect copyright.PENANALGjlpekCZS
315Please respect copyright.PENANAjXqLKAOOSQ
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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAXKmtYuxUgb
315Please respect copyright.PENANAaoKg68D9MZ
I rolled my eyes. "Finn, I can't fucking dance. Look at me, I have nothing to show and no rhythm."315Please respect copyright.PENANAv1fVZrVLJ7
315Please respect copyright.PENANAq2aXYidhmT
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."315Please respect copyright.PENANADZmZdwRWce
315Please respect copyright.PENANAH7KhXEUkuZ
"You're so lucky I am drunk as hell."315Please respect copyright.PENANAyNfcmCYRnu
315Please respect copyright.PENANAkkQMD7qJ2e
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAiEjOABYQuC
315Please respect copyright.PENANADNLjwtUi87
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAT7iGoJzEuF
315Please respect copyright.PENANAXUmNcLlDYD
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANADhzBHdnTvF
315Please respect copyright.PENANASY9GUfiAXS
"Take it off, baby!"315Please respect copyright.PENANA68lZr2Lprg
315Please respect copyright.PENANAjf0m2r9rWj
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA38GkFQUmb9
315Please respect copyright.PENANAqPr2R7yMJW
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAHYwjRbuaVB
315Please respect copyright.PENANAeK0YK3YWqJ
"Come on, Quinn! Show us what you are hiding."315Please respect copyright.PENANA4QgnB1i7jz
315Please respect copyright.PENANAa7oKssUoZb
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANARJzkibzUJK
315Please respect copyright.PENANAdC7q8Nbrbq
"Fuck it!" I muttered and reached down to pull my dress off.315Please respect copyright.PENANAPMhIeiDDd5
315Please respect copyright.PENANAdDL9vaMpX1
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAsmWGUmkgJl
315Please respect copyright.PENANAoTs70NnWgN
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAMSQdcDop9O
315Please respect copyright.PENANAGUiIWdHo4x
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAvFQD2P5Xsf
315Please respect copyright.PENANAlDOKV5w9vA
I felt so good. I felt so alive and so-315Please respect copyright.PENANAPridU29dKx
315Please respect copyright.PENANAIm1da4v9rD
*BANG* *BANG* 315Please respect copyright.PENANAaao21Pjd3l
315Please respect copyright.PENANA8NQ3xH6G42
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAp09kjvnzRu
315Please respect copyright.PENANACKZAsNZhIS
"Turn the fucking music off now!"315Please respect copyright.PENANADThbNPQDqJ
315Please respect copyright.PENANAX67tecbQjY
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANA4dl4mDAxGo
315Please respect copyright.PENANAIVAw2qHCpB
"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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAAkI9NPvh5G
315Please respect copyright.PENANA6GKDpRxzUZ
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAEWVsOmjuWY
315Please respect copyright.PENANAvWMfvybCRz
"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."315Please respect copyright.PENANAQP1YB2URlh
315Please respect copyright.PENANAI1JaHUhgZg
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANArxN0wT9BZj
315Please respect copyright.PENANAUQyhIvYcOM
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.315Please respect copyright.PENANAe3bh4rxSNX
315Please respect copyright.PENANAuYYHBlPwgE
"Get up and go."315Please respect copyright.PENANA0tkLAfiBih
315Please respect copyright.PENANAXVtsNaI7qD
I nodded and stood. I felt so low and defeated. I had fucked up again.315Please respect copyright.PENANAF0DUqFUVvv
315Please respect copyright.PENANABw00E4FA1U
I'm so fucking dead.315Please respect copyright.PENANAPx5QTaczms
