That week was a fucking nightmare with Naomi. 329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazsMyVKlqC
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxFZWzDhd6
The blonde, bimbo monster bitch absolutely hated me and she wanted to make sure I didn't forget it.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSOInOAuUx
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1Mn5Rl6IG
Each day, I was to report to Naomi no later than 6:30 AM with her specific coffee order and then was given a stack of papers to be reviewed and then filed immediately after in alphabetical order.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsThgprJBLT
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqyqxZTsw1
I usually finished up by noon without any time to even piss, let alone fucking breathe!329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQA97cR7xY
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE5DRyHRpH
Naomi would toss some nasty cold sandwich at me and then instruct me that I had ten minutes to eat before I was to clean the entire top floor which I am pretty sure isn't my god damn job in this position.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTo0QTv3qRT
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9ziiTffKQ
Most of the days lasted 12-13 hours with her barking orders at me and telling me how stupid I was if I didn't get something right immediately. She would mutter that Kalon was going to regret making me his direct assistant and I'd fuck it up on day one.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirL4CV5env
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5IDwMpd5O
Once everything was cleaned and I had made sure that every folder was organized correctly, Naomi would briefly give me a rundown of Kalon's schedule and what I was to do and not do.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQX4VmXwUC
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNXy2wYWAa
Basically, I was to be a shadow. Naomi told me that Kalon goes through assistants every single month and she's the only one who has been kept around for almost a year.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiTtoELXfG
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GPVlHzxWk
I can't lie, it made me extremely nervous. Just looking over Kalon's extravagant life really put things into perspective.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVKvbzQ0t2
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYj5FKxwIqh
Of course, the business side of things looked to be run through local casinos or clubs, but just having to verify and cross-check expenses made me want to hurl when I'd come across charges in the millions.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqbiV9GsxR
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwmsVzZ7bA
Who the fuck needs to buy four private jets in one month? 329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnp6WdAfVFz
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbDqQ5SLIP
Naomi mentioned that Kalon is a very prestigious businessman and some work is to be kept private. I tried to pry answers from her but she called told me to shut up instead.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppff8ge9XR
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3nCYwLlJX
I wasn't as dumb as everyone thought though. After moving in here and signing that suspicious contract it was pretty clear the Wolfe organization was doing some dirty, illegal shit and Kalon is the boss of it all.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQ0aMPzdVh
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf26w1Ahpt
I just wanted to stay focused on not doing anything to put myself in a position like Carlos who still hasn't shown his face around the estate.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJDn8eCTZ6
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGehfYaaDxR
Let's just say from that entire week, the only thing I looked forward to was 6:30 pm when monster, bimbo bitch left for the night and I was able to eat some real food and sleep.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgnsbTpZSp
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo1BY1TKlw
May had been kind enough to check in on me after her shifts as well. She would sit on the edge of my bed and listen to me ramble about how crazy my day was.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYut5wPms2
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyC6FI7byJ
There were even times she'd let me just sit there and let the tears pour down my face. I felt like an idiot but I was so overwhelmed.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk3EXgrKVh
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwdO6SVqLV
I hated Naomi. I hated Kalon for this job. I hated this damn life.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2NIRCo2vz
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9d7UQD82V
Most of all... I fucking missed my brother. My parents.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nag6LnCX7
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcsnfq6mzL
I never pictured my life like this. I just wanted it to be normal again.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj0zJVhKXu
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPCnbtXapI
I really just wished I had someone my age to be around again. I was starting to miss Landon so much but he wouldn't even look at me.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxms2qY18NA
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9yeo5OV4t
I'd see him down in the yard practicing tennis with his brother and had tried to get his attention a few times. I usually was just met with an awkward smirk and a glare from Jax who had even tossed me the bird a few times too.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnahK0V8Ee7
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPznsAJ3a8U
Fucking asshole.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ845k53Kxq9
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GgkYVobnZ
"Let's go, Roberta!"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Wu2f0bbHV
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcZMdUr4Ho
I groaned loudly and slammed down my blush compact. It wasn't even time for Naomi to harass me yet.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiHM7hLeOL
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEx7ooFmSD
"I haven't even had time to get your latte, Naomi," I snapped and ripped the door open.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2pAZPHpa8
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zrnd35UOk
Naomi's face was there as expected, already twisted into a snarl as she took me in. Her platinum hair was shockingly down for the day and she was dressed in her usual tight red dress and heels.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE03UTShEjL
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFdP688Szw
I don't know how she managed to wear those death traps every day but I guess when you are the spawn of Satan, it's easy as hell.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzTA99ShJX
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnr38cXabgo
"I am going to be gone today, but you are to report to the office to assist Axel."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35ohyotVtr
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQDyr2UyCF
My brows furrowed. "Axel?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmh0kvUL4n
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5bf2fRwhn
She rolled her eyes and tapped away on her phone. "Don't you know anything? I've told you Axel is Kalon's cousin. He takes over when Kalon is out of town."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUpkuSGGyN
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagXGOFOjMU
"Okay...so what am I doing today then?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2WY1d8Nct
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvLqJw2unM
She looked up at me, annoyed. "Just shut up and walk."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuG4uqQEW9N
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfucd8kv82l
I sighed and tossed my hair up into the best ponytail I could manage as Naomi snapped her gum and clicked away on her cellphone behind me.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADaI5FVCkj
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwXjMZzD12
When we approached the office, I realized it was cracked open and there was a distant voice on the inside who seemed to be joking around with someone on the phone.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDYFHyCYa2
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡValg5lq4cD
I walked up to it slowly and pressed my palm against the wood. Naomi must've grown irritated with me though because she pushed me aside and rushed in.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRiZBSdP1b
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpdp2VCdcq
"Naomi! What's up my favorite blonde bitch?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwj3gqL8nW0
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS73tMDJ6gm
My jaw dropped and I looked over at Naomi, waiting to see how she'd deal with him. Instead, she stuck her tongue out like a child and plopped down in her favorite chair.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBb5ZQaO6zO
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1aSlFw7OF
"Oh, new friends?"
I entered the office and looked up to find a man I hadn't met before. He was stunning and looked a lot like Kalon, minus the excessive tattoos and muscles.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlRfOYh3yI
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBbKsJTBVz
He was tall and dressed in a sleek dark blue suit with dark hair brushing along the edges of his shoulders. He had a toothpick placed between his full lips and a smile playing on his mouth as we came closer.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXVbO0Gfbp
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23i0sReMcn
"Nice to meet you, sir," I said politely and approached him.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmStoZ9fDE
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2zliTFYgr
He reached out and shook my hand. "Axel."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEMc20FmeX
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9xQH5kUqW
I nodded and met his mismatched eyes. One a brilliant blue color and the other nearly pitch black.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zRwpSwvhn
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡia1q1DLAU1
"The girls love it." He laughed.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGDIe3sPum
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HV2XUyOat
I blinked. "What?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFppjuKHwcS
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56yghYzF9U
He smirked and pointed towards his eyes. "It makes me look mysterious."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHACKzX8JtR
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLzis7Jb0i
"Doesn't make up for you being a gigantic douche, "Naomi muttered. "Where's Ramirez, by the way?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJepcj9BQh
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8wnYirmDw
Just as she spoke the dark-haired girl I had met the day I met with Kalon rushed into the room like she was in trouble. Her hands clasped securely in front of her waist and her eyes on the ground.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVgTLtPIYL
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ906HxeRQOL
"Ma'am?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8hooaEJ2X
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS28BFnBHlU
"Normal order, please. Get on it." Naomi barked out.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwyU1gLdBW
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBD3NV6BMTg
I watched in silence as the girl nodded and left immediately. Axel shook his head at the scene unfolding and hopped up onto the edge of the desk, knocking several papers out of place.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO81AF1SHKZ
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEM8AylOER
"Oh, no!" I said instinctively and moved to fix them. 329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziJwtBCo12
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4e0dSC1ZW
Axel's hand grasped mine. "Slow down there, babe." I looked up at him confused and felt my cheeks heat up from his intense gaze.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZe2wN0WtY
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnyU2YpvEa
His fingers slowly stroked the back of my hand as he turned it palm side up and trailed his nail along the lines there.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0idT58dezu
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiRZ5Js5qb
"Beautiful hands."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuG8D97D8j
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9cMyXmPNA
"T-thank you?" I stammered and pulled away.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidrwyViXej
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnT2xINwvE
Axel's eyes continued to watch me as I hurried back towards my usual spot next to Naomi so I could await her demands for the day.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU38mD7Ybx
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvedjVWjSya
"Axel, I'm leaving. This one is Roberta, Kalon wants her to be the number one apparently," She scoffed. "Don't know why considering she has been a huge disaster already."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg3ze3YteJ
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHSUxA66Um
"Play nice," Axel scolded and looked at me apologetically. "You have somewhere better to be anyway."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jYremOv4o
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoSAmEfDAb
"That I do," Naomi sighed and looked over at me with a snarky grin. "Good luck."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbY0RlL5zD
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTtbIvA7Q4
Axel and I watched as the blonde demon exited the room, chatting away happily on her cellphone as she did.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40fdmAl3Bx
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBSsKKcopa
He shook his head and smiled, "Sorry, about Naomi, I wish Kalon would hire women who aren't secret succubi."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCduZ9Fml2A
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNTl4Rx7mq
I shrugged, "I guess it's all part of the job."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVksErzZ6l7
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKYFGesHcY
"I suppose," He grinned crookedly. "Would you like a drink?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmBg6AmvIK
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0VttK7G44
"Am I suppose to be drinking?" I chuckled awkwardly. "I kind of got myself into trouble with your cousin on that one."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgx8imH7WP8
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3OKXiLrWN
"Ahh, you are the party girl?" He teased and fetched a bottle of champagne. "Kalon sure was pissed about that."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnT12OfWa8
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl244k97OuZ
My cheeks flushed. "He told you?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN11uSlpXT
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVUrinShgL
Axel nodded as he poured the glasses, "He didn't shut up about it for about a week. Caused some trouble between the brothers."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpb8z7rzmK
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SINZYdI8O
"And Carlos?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR6zmTtJoi
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Xu1QdJ518
"Yeah...Carlos." His lips tightened as he said it.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN6XxNaQ0H
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkWi6xfTvO
"Where did he go?" I pressed. I wanted to know as much as I possibly could and Axel seemed like he might be my best bet at this point.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfGNguK8y7
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CuLWAjV3D
"Terminated." He said simply and handed me my glass.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQYb2x00RM
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVUGRSOx06
"Really? I thought this was a forever thing?" I asked and took a sip.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEeUGYegrl
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAL8ccPF9fV
"Depends on the situation," He sighed and trailed his fingertip along the edge. "You ask a lot of questions."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcrV4yJItz
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIlAQeEZ9A
"Curious, I guess."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb22yfx9HCz
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdLFFRMbZ8
"You know what they say about that," He winked and took a drink. "Wouldn't want to see a pretty face like you end up in too much trouble."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlNSE7aopn
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASJQA3YyUM
"Oh, I'll surprise you."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ44T7kN4yZ
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIF50TIDwtB
He smirked. "I don't doubt that, Ms. Quinn."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLeN7nIy7z
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTmdMZBbHk
I met his unique eyes again and felt my cheeks heat up like wildfire. "U-uh, so what are we doing today, sir?"329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSvDhk1pkt
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhI2c04OSw
He shook his head. "Axel is fine."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe2oleNwie
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpV3llEnWA
"Sorry...sir, I mean Axel!" I stuttered.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ynL5XiLZj
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPJAVlsVlF
He just laughed and tossed me a stack of folders. "Have at it, princess."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHqj8lwAzR
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWESCxkf6F1
"Just this?" I said as I flipped through it. Naomi usually dumped enough paperwork on me to last half of my day.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVD0koBGJM
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YTNHgPvCx
"That's it...I think you deserve a short day," Axel grinned and moved to sit on the edge of the desk again, our knees nearly touching."You seem like you work really hard."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbViGjM5V4e
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL5ap85kbZ
"With Naomi, there are no breaks or days off," I said lowly. "I'm completely fine working the full day."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLGufpdL4x
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjGA18GDj4
"Don't worry about it, I got your back." He reassured and stuck his pinky out. "I promise."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxAeHqJOAg
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LkiQlnADY
I looked up at him, staring into his eyes as our pinky's locked together like children swearing on a pact. I half-expected him to pull away quickly but instead, he locked onto my hand and pulled me closer as he leaned down.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoctmOTDqy
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv4SDRrt6d
The distance between us was nearly non-existent now and all I could smell was the mix of alcohol and cologne on him. My chest was tightening and all I could think of was my first meeting with Kalon.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8L0oVltz3
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6WCcc6T5n
"I like you," Axel said lowly and ran his fingers over mine. "You are different."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzT0pn0v1r
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QcSsedq6L
"T-thank you." I stammered, my heart racing now.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLraodiaHcX
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7XJKX8k3G
He chuckled and licked his lower lip. "I'd like to take you to dinner."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZhzJauQcK
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq19OtMxwf1
My breath caught. "U-uh...I'm...I'm not sure... uh."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CxgEjuGUD
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvVolSvkyY
"Just think about it," He said and used his free hand to grab a pen. "Call me when you do."329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yeZWTLU6e
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWN7Yruuta
I watched in silence as he scrabbled his phone number on my palm, his intense gaze never leaving mine as he did.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJqmqeScyT
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshwEWGaQ02
"Oh...ok..." I started out, unsure of what to say.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0fwbatxNt
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqC79d6rTB
"Get to work, Ms. Quinn." He said playfully and pushed off the desk.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUsgnApSS7
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaKNkITZzq
I sat there in complete disbelief as the folders in my hands felt like they were now hundreds of pounds.329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoYXyvAcrG
329Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWQmCE7DRX
