After I had left the office with Axel I was in a complete daze and so confused. I was grateful I had the rest of the day to really think about what had happened.347Please respect copyright.PENANAWk37YBoUce
347Please respect copyright.PENANAdnBtdnB72z
I stared at his number on my palm for what felt like forever. Moments of confidence would hit me and I'd pick up my cellphone like I was actually going to do something.347Please respect copyright.PENANAtsEOzWPX83
347Please respect copyright.PENANAiWBuBRZ3QQ
I ended my night laying flat on my back watching shitty tv with a bag of popcorn. His number still fresh on my palm as I laid there in my dismay over Axel's offer on dinner.347Please respect copyright.PENANAcueMSBQ303
347Please respect copyright.PENANAvWtIkNLEvm
He was handsome, funny, and kind. Who in their right mind would say no?347Please respect copyright.PENANA01abIxrEcZ
347Please respect copyright.PENANAxUiaxTPymY
Part of me wanted to say 'yes' to his offer right away but then there was that other part of me that kept playing my interaction with Kalon over and over.347Please respect copyright.PENANA3T91aLDXsf
347Please respect copyright.PENANAbJBJyIIplE
Him being so close to me that day, driving my heart up, his intoxicating scent washing over me like a wave.347Please respect copyright.PENANALpLUCX0RIV
347Please respect copyright.PENANAp9SyQAxOGR
As much as I wanted to hate Kalon for the situation I'm in, I couldn't seem to get him out of my mind. I knew a girl like me was nothing but a number to someone in his position.347Please respect copyright.PENANAYPf2LIrdnw
347Please respect copyright.PENANA4kQzooBtjJ
A man like that would never go for a girl like me. My entire life is a god damn joke and I basically look like I'm still fifteen years old.347Please respect copyright.PENANANC5Nqew228
347Please respect copyright.PENANAnOsQDOdvmS
Kalon goes for girls like Naomi. Women who have amazing curves and big, fake breasts.347Please respect copyright.PENANAkFH7xaXkUw
347Please respect copyright.PENANAd5J8hEJWJl
Women who are absolute bitches to everyone around them.347Please respect copyright.PENANAdLxNEZRSRJ
347Please respect copyright.PENANARAF3suLhDA
I had hoped the right answer would come to me but it never did. I woke up that next morning with a stress headache and stumbled my way through my morning routine.347Please respect copyright.PENANArkjcQLBZh0
347Please respect copyright.PENANA6uQO9MTGz3
Kalon was supposed to be back from his business trip this morning and despite my own mental torment, I was eager to prove my worth to him.347Please respect copyright.PENANA952md9WCZQ
347Please respect copyright.PENANAV5lL1Lqf5r
Once my shower was finished I stood completely naked in front of the steamy bathroom mirror and stared back at my own reflection.347Please respect copyright.PENANADBVD8K9gN9
347Please respect copyright.PENANAA3zSUqhshT
I looked the same but at the same time, I felt so different. 347Please respect copyright.PENANAXvmi9t5JFC
347Please respect copyright.PENANAhu56m0dW5F
My skin had a bit of a glow and was the clearest it had been in years. My cheeks were rosy and my hair full of volume and curls.347Please respect copyright.PENANAAeFTT957KA
347Please respect copyright.PENANADENl2brXTv
I felt like a woman standing exposed at that moment. I felt confident and proud.347Please respect copyright.PENANA1XHRRSagXv
347Please respect copyright.PENANALSlT6ArgIE
I felt like...like my mom.347Please respect copyright.PENANAgHfCKN6qBm
347Please respect copyright.PENANA6ChmaD7CWi
Tears hit me as the thought of her came over me. I never thought I would grow into my features so rapidly. The same features she was known for.347Please respect copyright.PENANAirhZLuXhPO
347Please respect copyright.PENANAwHRyUe0LkO
I used to feel so complimented knowing how similar we were but now it was just so fucking painful.347Please respect copyright.PENANA96u6NuWrTd
347Please respect copyright.PENANA999ClWzny2
"Brush it off..." I whispered to myself and braced my hands on the counter.347Please respect copyright.PENANADzixwk2ke0
347Please respect copyright.PENANAhz34Zi0XKo
My body was on high alert and I could feel nausea starting to hit me from the nerves breaking out all over.347Please respect copyright.PENANAIfklOvmq1P
347Please respect copyright.PENANAq4tOs6JNgu
Before I had time to dwell on my emotions for too long I turned my attention on my morning routine. 347Please respect copyright.PENANAwWJgFssCBQ
347Please respect copyright.PENANARCVsbEdhsz
I decided today would be the day I took that extra step in really showing what kind of woman I am and how valuable I can be.347Please respect copyright.PENANAt3UF6lyhKG
347Please respect copyright.PENANAGGtbKfcFOc
I straightened my hair for the first time in years and even decided to add some stunning red lipstick with smokey shadow and mascara.347Please respect copyright.PENANAH639NogjUM
347Please respect copyright.PENANAwOVKgPbqYg
I swiped a bit of blush along with the sharpest points of my cheekbones and smiled back at myself.347Please respect copyright.PENANADGpBNUraZa
347Please respect copyright.PENANAzBMkI3vfv2
I looked good. Mature.347Please respect copyright.PENANAGJj6TC7WAm
347Please respect copyright.PENANAqsgnDrTGsg
I sat my makeup brushes down and slipped into my underwear and tight, black dress quickly. I knew Kalon would be in his office soon and didn't want to ruin today by being late.347Please respect copyright.PENANA4WnH7SMzot
347Please respect copyright.PENANA4ROfKAryx0
After slipping on my new heels that I was sure I'd break an ankle in, I hurried out of my room and down the hall. I could already feel my heart pounding loudly in my ears as I anxiously checked my cellphone time.347Please respect copyright.PENANAIOEWX55EKE
347Please respect copyright.PENANAUVI13J08TD
Why the hell did he have to be on the opposite side of a house that is the equivalent of 5 single family homes?! 347Please respect copyright.PENANAt7pVKgPmyc
347Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4wA5trTsT
By the time his office came into view my vision was starting to blur from how out of breath I was. Hopefully, I wasn't already sweating my damn makeup off.347Please respect copyright.PENANAoC8ucWMcBS
347Please respect copyright.PENANAuSCxQtyQir
I reached out to knock against the door when I heard a sound come from the other side.347Please respect copyright.PENANAd0aqaJ103Q
347Please respect copyright.PENANAOgIWybmIx6
I pulled back a bit and listened closely for it to come again but after a few moments of nothing I decided it was probably safe to just enter before I really was late.347Please respect copyright.PENANAGQarjp0xn7
347Please respect copyright.PENANABcp3Cr4nQ1
I pushed open the door, smiling brightly as the office came into view.347Please respect copyright.PENANAXJtMgFcdDF
347Please respect copyright.PENANAMvz83YyTFn
I got an immediate display of Kalon's exposed chest covered in colorful tattoos as his hand griped furiously onto a blondes head.347Please respect copyright.PENANAOLNSzjFw9x
347Please respect copyright.PENANACAitIDmoW9
He immediately saw me walk in and I felt my cheeks heat up as he continued to pump himself deeper and faster into the girls mouth as she gagged desperately for air.347Please respect copyright.PENANAjF3yjfFRS2
347Please respect copyright.PENANAnUfHSbosta
I opened my mouth to speak but stopped when he shook his head quickly and kept his focus on me. I could feel my insides spinning and an all too familiar warmth built up like wildfire between my legs as he fucked me with his eyes.347Please respect copyright.PENANAGwdkxRP2NY
347Please respect copyright.PENANAHqes81acmG
I couldn't take my eyes off of them. He was so incredible with how he performed.347Please respect copyright.PENANAevfpvz06tm
347Please respect copyright.PENANAvmbZfEFYbg
His muscles rippling with each stroke as he pushed deeper into her throat, his breaths coming out heavy and fast.347Please respect copyright.PENANAGXlU30Ji16
347Please respect copyright.PENANAHa61SGRR28
His steel eyes roamed over my body, hungrily. I suddenly pictured myself in her place instead. The desire to please him was overwhelming and unexpected as it hit me.347Please respect copyright.PENANA5qdzulIOyU
347Please respect copyright.PENANAc9jhw040H7
Kalon continued to breath deeply as he kept his eyes on me and bit his lower lip in need. I felt my palms drench with sweat as I braced myself against the doorframe and watched the show come to an end.347Please respect copyright.PENANAcnoK6zDaH6
347Please respect copyright.PENANACAOpwUpjL7
His free hand steadied her head and he pushed himself into her fully as he released. His moans began to subside and the girl at his waist let out a small laugh before pushing back onto her knees.347Please respect copyright.PENANApCGjwGuWNa
347Please respect copyright.PENANAImzQyANayp
I quickly looked away to the floor as Kalon moved in my direction, exposing himself to me. I knew it was inappropriate to be watching this and certainly not professional in any way, but there was a bigger part of me building with desire to see every part of him.347Please respect copyright.PENANALozfhgEOQh
347Please respect copyright.PENANAPXplcXAHQt
I wanted to admire his perfection, his strength.347Please respect copyright.PENANAQUswNL8Ji4
347Please respect copyright.PENANAVJESvoqzTY
"Good morning, Miss Quinn."347Please respect copyright.PENANAND2SBbm96Q
347Please respect copyright.PENANAxqSIP45zxZ
My heart seemed to skip a bit as Kalon addressed me still keeping his attention on his shirt as he finished buttoning it up.347Please respect copyright.PENANAsmCwjGstaS
347Please respect copyright.PENANAOLuu0YWneC
The blonde gasped and spun around in a haste. As soon as she did, I realized that it had been the blonde she-devil that had been choking on his dick.347Please respect copyright.PENANARWT4DPbGH6
347Please respect copyright.PENANA6JTMkQiDmv
"Are you fucking serious?" Naomi screeched and covered up her exposed breasts.347Please respect copyright.PENANAFDAVTk2bdS
347Please respect copyright.PENANANDENSJC7Ob
"I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was interrupting something," I apologized and kept my gaze on the floor. "Do I need to come back?"347Please respect copyright.PENANAbRAFrTC8Rp
347Please respect copyright.PENANANaws5aBUXb
I heard the office chair move and Kalon spoke up. "No need! Good morning, I'm excited to get you started."347Please respect copyright.PENANAKO7Jis6jfK
347Please respect copyright.PENANAesGKWpnt9d
"Well, I'm out of here. Let me know what happens with the meetings," Naomi sighed and pushed past me, nearly pushing me over.347Please respect copyright.PENANATapkFgJgAB
347Please respect copyright.PENANAEHpJuia9Xs
Kalon and I sat for a few moments in silence as the door slammed shut with her rage fueled exit.347Please respect copyright.PENANAQaYSsEYdSk
347Please respect copyright.PENANA0F0qBIoYOZ
I took a deep breath and looked back up at him. He had already been staring at me.347Please respect copyright.PENANApha631c732
347Please respect copyright.PENANA4Up8sGITpC
"I'm very sorry for interrupting the two of you. I didn't realize Naomi was your girlfriend, otherwise I -"347Please respect copyright.PENANAEqciN3tXNv
347Please respect copyright.PENANAi0cHxNfPys
Kalon put his hand up to stop me. "Please stop apologizing to me and Naomi is not my girlfriend."347Please respect copyright.PENANAwL9BsEJ8mJ
347Please respect copyright.PENANAn0wBTHX5zX
"Oh..."My nerves relaxed a bit, "I'm so-" I started out again but stopped when I saw his eyes narrow. "Understood, sir."347Please respect copyright.PENANAdUYSHBESlk
347Please respect copyright.PENANAH0s4sLgOCI
He nodded and raised his arms up behind his head, the curves of his biceps showing through the fabric of his long sleeve shirt. "I'd like you to join me today, I need to attend a few meetings and I'm not the best on keeping myself organized."347Please respect copyright.PENANAMKw3ggoDx9
347Please respect copyright.PENANAptqa6EPkBb
"Of course, that's why I'm here."347Please respect copyright.PENANAF41ZJtCBf0
347Please respect copyright.PENANAyHRGj6fRqY
His mouth curved into a crooked grin. "I'm sure you will do great."347Please respect copyright.PENANANPBq78ajjh
347Please respect copyright.PENANAaPc1is0l3s
"T-thank you."347Please respect copyright.PENANA5lHbC3LO4l
347Please respect copyright.PENANAmC8g26bNKe
Kalon nodded briefly and pushed back his hair from his forehead. He looked down at several scattered papers on his desk and fingered through them.347Please respect copyright.PENANA1uL5Q7VONA
347Please respect copyright.PENANAu1FBQEx1RX
"Very impressed with your categorization," He said as he continued to read. "Certainly made my morning a lot easier."347Please respect copyright.PENANAnTYz5geDKJ
347Please respect copyright.PENANANKjrEatZaH
"Thank you...and you're welcome," I smiled a bit at the compliment.347Please respect copyright.PENANAxTRoBcJnpy
347Please respect copyright.PENANAZhn4yRA181
"Anyways, I am going to shower and change into something a little more suited for the day. I'll meet you at your room in about an hour." Kalon said and leaned back, his grey eyes roaming over me347Please respect copyright.PENANAfBJHE6MiN8
347Please respect copyright.PENANAGoanjqYvql
"Of course, sir. I'll see you soon." I responded quickly and hurried out of the room before another thought could cross my mind.347Please respect copyright.PENANAjvbc6Kgwt8
347Please respect copyright.PENANAEczZY4C3rR
As soon as the door shut, I leaned against it and tried to steady my breathing. My head was such a mess.347Please respect copyright.PENANAvVIgUxW3tG
347Please respect copyright.PENANAnVvPMw43jh
I didn't know what Kalon was doing...and what he was doing to me.347Please respect copyright.PENANAQ60XlYSKCl
347Please respect copyright.PENANANbNDJG3Z6U
Something about him was so fucking addicting. It wasn't even the insanely good looks and power, it was just everything about him.347Please respect copyright.PENANAWbVVKaQ5F6
347Please respect copyright.PENANAIOxLs76pFV
That next hour went way too fast. I sat on my bed the entire time just thinking about the entire scene that had played out.347Please respect copyright.PENANAFDssxau7pQ
347Please respect copyright.PENANA1BqxxkFNUt
Watching Naomi with him had me in a ball of emotions. I couldn't tell if I was jealous or just aroused by the idea of pleasing him.347Please respect copyright.PENANAghmKMol85Q
347Please respect copyright.PENANA3EX1Rof4TF
It felt so wrong to even let that be a thought. He was my boss! He's the reason my life is miserable.347Please respect copyright.PENANAI50TStMeiG
347Please respect copyright.PENANAcDWqaWCI2v
Despite the mental torture I went through for that next hour when a knock sounded at my door, I quickly dashed across the room to find him standing there.347Please respect copyright.PENANARytQPBdIRN
347Please respect copyright.PENANAgmNLL7NQPy
As always, Kalon looked incredible. His hair was styled and swept away from his face, showing off the curves of his sharp cheekbones and grey eyes roaming over me again.347Please respect copyright.PENANAqJsr7NSQLD
347Please respect copyright.PENANA95RgkWxlBU
"Let's go."347Please respect copyright.PENANAyIPni3qyBD
347Please respect copyright.PENANAztqrwUZ5SI
I nodded and tried to keep up with his long legs the best I could. You'd think he would take into consideration our drastic height difference, but as his assistant, it was my job to keep up with HIM instead.347Please respect copyright.PENANAHZ3s7sEIZh
347Please respect copyright.PENANAC20usGkW8f
As Kalon and I exited the front of the manor we were greeted by several of his men. I started walking towards the black Escalade but stopped when Kalon snatched me by the elbow.347Please respect copyright.PENANARsYstWNx9S
347Please respect copyright.PENANAzvTHC3T6oi
"What's wrong?"347Please respect copyright.PENANAqJYdoa3ekO
347Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9tgUDArl9
He shook his head, "I'm driving today."347Please respect copyright.PENANAa9AhDHRV1b
347Please respect copyright.PENANAYKCM6KAY5m
I looked at him confused and a bit shocked that we weren't being escorted by the guards. Kalon was not known for taking his employees on joy rides in his own personal cars.347Please respect copyright.PENANA8wD6Ivp6S8
347Please respect copyright.PENANAOZAYWysQ7u
If business was involved, it was quick and discreet.347Please respect copyright.PENANAycgOrNKMXa
347Please respect copyright.PENANAOMhNU2L2Zq
I kept up with him closely as we rounded the driveway to an open garage where several expensive cars sat. I tried to keep my composure and excitement contained as he stepped inside and waited.347Please respect copyright.PENANAM98bEtJ8Zp
347Please respect copyright.PENANA8VA0DVLTSP
"Something wrong?" I asked after several moments of awkward silence.347Please respect copyright.PENANANshvwy7KbY
347Please respect copyright.PENANAWs527sMS3q
He sighed and glanced at his watch. "Pick a car."347Please respect copyright.PENANAuqz1lQ2NHK
347Please respect copyright.PENANA1BB4FmhoS6
I tried to swallow the lump building in my throat and scanned the garage. The task of choosing his car for today was not what I had in mind.347Please respect copyright.PENANARcrXpxNNCr
347Please respect copyright.PENANAs64ykxPUiO
What if this was some weird kind of test.347Please respect copyright.PENANAXd0m7hrbXc
347Please respect copyright.PENANAjT2j6WdgOl
"That one."347Please respect copyright.PENANASnAqt4U9Rj
347Please respect copyright.PENANACkDD6kqUFF
His eyes followed my gaze and a bit of a smirk played on the corner of his mouth when he noticed I picked out the black Bugatti.347Please respect copyright.PENANAoMiiC49iAd
347Please respect copyright.PENANA12vn1cejgP
Without another word, the two of us climbed into the sleek vehicle and he brought the engine to life. A deep, low grumble filled the silence as he pulled out from the driveway and onto the road confined by the heavy trees that lined the estate.347Please respect copyright.PENANAH7jK6DUkZk
347Please respect copyright.PENANAQxQQ3VROm2
I kept my gaze out the window as he drove through into the city. I couldn't help but clutch nervously at the hem of my dress as the road started to blur more and more.347Please respect copyright.PENANAxFVjgEpTsv
347Please respect copyright.PENANA3B6rSO1aTQ
I'm sure Kalon was more than amused by my horrified expression at his need for speed, but I didn't dare give him that satisfaction.347Please respect copyright.PENANAP0CTBxtPps
347Please respect copyright.PENANAd5tSueYqOJ
Thankfully, our drive came to an end after a short 20 minutes and the engine was turned off once more.347Please respect copyright.PENANAfJpfJU9l4d
347Please respect copyright.PENANAxRomR2hT99
"You okay?" Kalon laughed softly.347Please respect copyright.PENANAnYL8geQDL1
347Please respect copyright.PENANAB2sPHtMS6w
I nodded, letting out a big breath. "You sure like to drive...fast."347Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1gaFQknfc
347Please respect copyright.PENANAKvu8Uoa9D0
"When you have a car like this it's a waste of money to not speed."347Please respect copyright.PENANArBTGv3KhaN
347Please respect copyright.PENANAYsE2a637So
I tried to force a laugh out in response but didn't entirely agree with his rich boy thinking. I met Kalon at the front of the car, cradling my belongings close to my chest as the front of the casino came into view.347Please respect copyright.PENANARQNvdvr9Ok
347Please respect copyright.PENANAIoAdtZX8zZ
He slipped his sunglasses off his face and eyed the guards at the front of the door. "Keep quiet unless I address you. Stay close and take plenty of notes."347Please respect copyright.PENANAWzw3nc3wWc
347Please respect copyright.PENANADIJYknLqo3
"Yes, sir."347Please respect copyright.PENANAtdVknPQN48
347Please respect copyright.PENANAFyF9Fu48xb
He glared down at me. "It's Kalon."347Please respect copyright.PENANAEF9AENKEkB
347Please respect copyright.PENANA1LYscGLYNQ
"Sorry, si- I mean Kalon." I blushed and he just shook his head as we entered through the front.347Please respect copyright.PENANAV4zjztvNlb
347Please respect copyright.PENANAR4k22YqXig
"Mr. Wolfe! It's such a pleasure to see you."347Please respect copyright.PENANAeFFLHecZZD
347Please respect copyright.PENANAe4mRvA0T6L
I peeped around his shoulder as an unfamiliar man with blonde hair and a nasty looking scar down the right side of his face came into view. In a way, he reminded me a lot of an older version of Jax.347Please respect copyright.PENANA8I0HPFlQOP
347Please respect copyright.PENANAmvkD7OWZQj
"Erik, nice to see you."347Please respect copyright.PENANAhFMkG9705c
347Please respect copyright.PENANAQibksXWpHf
"It's been a minute, man!" Erik cheered and tossed an arm around Kalon's shoulders. "Where the fuck have you been?"347Please respect copyright.PENANApUzHkoefWh
347Please respect copyright.PENANAL6v66cjSKd
Kalon shrugged him off, "Business."347Please respect copyright.PENANAmXE3UhLaAQ
347Please respect copyright.PENANA46Fjs4l23T
"Yeah, yeah. Always business with you! Axel shows his face around here more than you do, boss."347Please respect copyright.PENANAS8O4KJMoar
347Please respect copyright.PENANAF64Xgchmok
Kalon didn't respond and Erik's eyes fell on me hiding behind him. "Woah, Woah! You weren't going to introduce us?" Erik gushed and put his hand out. "Nice to meet you, darling. The name is Erik Krueger."347Please respect copyright.PENANA9wVaCgvq8m
347Please respect copyright.PENANAYtw1qg2rle
"Roberta Quinn."347Please respect copyright.PENANA1MfZ8urq65
347Please respect copyright.PENANAws5POKwlke
Erik smiled unevenly. "Where has he been hiding you?"347Please respect copyright.PENANA5NREoB7Dhm
347Please respect copyright.PENANAikbCbzkJst
I chuckled, looking away nervously. "I'm just an assistant."347Please respect copyright.PENANA1uFyodg2S5
347Please respect copyright.PENANASfLpkiDABs
"She's trying to do her job, Erik. Stop making my employees uncomfortable." Kalon barked out harshly.347Please respect copyright.PENANAOaap3O88py
347Please respect copyright.PENANA9xcpuwKh4m
Erik rolled his eyes and stepped away, still keeping me in his view as he talked. "Just being kind to the lady."347Please respect copyright.PENANAaYEmhylJUc
347Please respect copyright.PENANARfNfjwdwVe
Kalon ignored him. "Where's Vinny? This needs to get going."347Please respect copyright.PENANAtdJ6kwg7Nx
347Please respect copyright.PENANAtEou843nlY
"VIP lounge."347Please respect copyright.PENANAhMrQ7J2Cj4
347Please respect copyright.PENANAC7wQ93AOpv
Kalon nodded and looked back at me, "Come on."347Please respect copyright.PENANAPsE1vTmtNp
347Please respect copyright.PENANAA8B3FGzCyn
I kept on his heels closely as he led the way through the packed casino. Men in business suits swarmed past us, laughing loudly as they swung their beers around and blew their money at the tables surrounding us. It was lively and girls by the dozen moved around us with silver platters and flapper dresses.347Please respect copyright.PENANAVNCX4lJUZ0
347Please respect copyright.PENANALnBB0A1xp1
I certainly could see the charm about the place. Despite not fully understanding Kalon's motives, he seemed to be good at one thing for sure.347Please respect copyright.PENANA4Qpkq52QAe
347Please respect copyright.PENANAxSWuulRTzL
Business and money.347Please respect copyright.PENANAFrbkZ7X5aF
347Please respect copyright.PENANAOazdp4koxe
The halls started to dim as we turned down a red velvet hallway towards a massive room showing VIP in big, gold letters lit up by lights. A man dressed in all black stood in front of a rope blocking the entrance.347Please respect copyright.PENANAbZMqu73mPQ
347Please respect copyright.PENANAEdcodFqoq0
"Mr. Wolfe." He nodded and moved to the side.347Please respect copyright.PENANAa6AGnptwEO
347Please respect copyright.PENANARGTd8LTfuy
I tried to push my nerves down as the two of us entered the room together. Loud house music filled the room and there was a small stage in the middle of the room where a stripper was performing topless.347Please respect copyright.PENANAfjI8RVPb0e
347Please respect copyright.PENANAeXzgSMJYtv
The air was hot and full of marijuana and hookah smoke. I watched as Kalon motioned towards a group of men sitting at the back of the room with briefcases laid out on the table in front of them.347Please respect copyright.PENANAiCDXhKTLbV
347Please respect copyright.PENANANkMZH8JPlT
"Mr. Santoro."347Please respect copyright.PENANAtu0c4mWqoM
347Please respect copyright.PENANAurGNnixHSn
One of the older men at the table looked up towards Kalon. His cigar hanging loosely between his lips.347Please respect copyright.PENANA3M4u0cVdAW
347Please respect copyright.PENANALbHZDWXimg
"Kalon Wolfe," He chuckled and blew out smoke. "Nice to finally see you! I assumed Axel would've been filling in for you today."347Please respect copyright.PENANAEHmjMLE5mo
347Please respect copyright.PENANAe2vnBPecRI
"I got back into town early."347Please respect copyright.PENANAZt45ioIu6c
347Please respect copyright.PENANAKltZXZnndF
Kalon started to move towards the booth and looked back at me. "Sit behind us."347Please respect copyright.PENANA6nFuKKdr3I
347Please respect copyright.PENANAGw9B4QgXlF
I nodded and eyed an empty seat at the table behind them and slid into it, keeping the conversation within earshot so I could take notes as he instructed.347Please respect copyright.PENANAUiQYK9tSLs
347Please respect copyright.PENANARiIlEPtJDu
The men broke out into some boring conversation about rich people things before finally getting into the real stuff. I listened as attentively as I could as they discussed percentages and cuts.347Please respect copyright.PENANAMb1Lxs0soe
347Please respect copyright.PENANAWLoWLp6gb1
About an hour into the conversation, I could feel my hand going numb. I didn't know anything about this Santoro fellow, but from what I could tell it sounded like he was really wanting to screw Kalon over.347Please respect copyright.PENANAwaZIuzDVVi
347Please respect copyright.PENANAZx8I0v33m5
"Hey, beautiful."347Please respect copyright.PENANAz9R2vfXBcS
347Please respect copyright.PENANACXCWEN7F5X
I put my pen down and looked up as Erik from earlier slid into the booth across from me.347Please respect copyright.PENANAPvlXbXyUoh
347Please respect copyright.PENANAjEyljqJqY0
"Hey, sorry I'm trying to work."347Please respect copyright.PENANAurhWX5eGwE
347Please respect copyright.PENANA3I7AMqBZPN
He smirked. "Probably pretty boring listening to all of that business chat, huh?"347Please respect copyright.PENANAZYwdNqEeQP
347Please respect copyright.PENANAf4kgxpv5Oo
I nodded and tried to focus on the notes. "I guess so."347Please respect copyright.PENANAp6d7MIBmQm
347Please respect copyright.PENANA5tDmnIrYBE
"I bet working for someone like Kalon Wolfe is pretty scary too."347Please respect copyright.PENANA1uIJ2qfnZM
347Please respect copyright.PENANAIdgBNDj50r
I looked up, confused. "What do you mean?"347Please respect copyright.PENANA7qIeuExaLe
347Please respect copyright.PENANAITxPp6i6G4
He rolled his eyes and leaned closer. "You don't have to play it down. Everyone here is just as bad as he is."347Please respect copyright.PENANAxn18Byf5L6
347Please respect copyright.PENANAoJwuJDkKGb
"Bad?"347Please respect copyright.PENANATE57PCeK5z
347Please respect copyright.PENANADzLejw1EXn
"Bad," He mimicked and slid out a cigarette. "Want one?"347Please respect copyright.PENANAcl1XWB4OPd
347Please respect copyright.PENANAjhbJHtNjaP
"No thanks," I shook my head. "And I actually don't really know a lot about the family. I know what I signed is unusual, but Mr. Wolfe tends to be pretty private."347Please respect copyright.PENANA14Pl0KYbnd
347Please respect copyright.PENANAFkpIbtcalu
"As he should, he doesn't need girls like you being involved."347Please respect copyright.PENANAupunwtZYC6
347Please respect copyright.PENANAn0vwsGVSjB
"Girls like me?" I laughed.347Please respect copyright.PENANAQzeU0eKVnu
347Please respect copyright.PENANAkCOW4UCIQE
"Pretty and innocent," He winked. "I'm shocked he swapped out Naomi for you."347Please respect copyright.PENANAogI5X8FF5Z
347Please respect copyright.PENANATHG7yJ1jLV
"Ouch."347Please respect copyright.PENANAcmSoDR6JUU
347Please respect copyright.PENANATt8Rgo0cke
He took a puff. "I don't mean it as a negative, cutie. Naomi is a fucking bitch, but a girl like her is definitely cut out for this business."347Please respect copyright.PENANATWPC7D1uCm
347Please respect copyright.PENANAuVvmSdMQku
"Well, why don't you enlighten me then," I smiled and leaned forward.347Please respect copyright.PENANA1Y4AFphqGO
347Please respect copyright.PENANAf9SwIelvsK
He shook his head and blew smoke out towards me. "I don't think I should piss your boss off."347Please respect copyright.PENANAGrjswZztla
347Please respect copyright.PENANATlSYRbLiYI
"Why? Would he kill you?" I teased but honestly wanted to know.347Please respect copyright.PENANAkUV0oLkZpZ
347Please respect copyright.PENANAcF4BVHbV0M
Erik started to lean towards me again to respond but stopped as someone approached us. His eyes darting behind me.347Please respect copyright.PENANADZSog9FXVY
347Please respect copyright.PENANAD0LFf3JQl8
"Let's go, Roberta."347Please respect copyright.PENANA4olrtyq46t
347Please respect copyright.PENANA6fO4IDcAGg
I closed my notebook and looked up at Kalon. His eyes still on Erik. He looked super pissed off.347Please respect copyright.PENANAjCshhXFIRi
347Please respect copyright.PENANApsw7f9XWty
"See you around." Erik nodded at the two of us and moved out of the booth quickly.347Please respect copyright.PENANAnIU5AR4zmc
347Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5lVpMODKJ
Kalon watched as he made his exit and looked down at me, his features stone cold. "What did he say to you?"347Please respect copyright.PENANAxfSs8oERAz
347Please respect copyright.PENANAFEawoEU7XH
"Nothing, really." I lied.347Please respect copyright.PENANA3X42GdZlCW
347Please respect copyright.PENANAIwJBTCZoTS
I didn't want Kalon to have any reason to hunt Erik down for something so little. I knew Kalon was not a typical billionaire, I wasn't that dumb. I just couldn't get anyone to really admit the full truth to me.347Please respect copyright.PENANA2YJ5GmHgvN
347Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7gf16177L
"Don't lie to me, Roberta." He said sternly.347Please respect copyright.PENANAHU6CZ5W6yb
347Please respect copyright.PENANAdf3jBK80hS
My chest tightened. "I'm not, sir."347Please respect copyright.PENANARqwBdpau0W
347Please respect copyright.PENANAnEfD1vmkVK
He sighed, angrily. "It's Kalon, dammit."347Please respect copyright.PENANAtZ9aWRGV2g
347Please respect copyright.PENANAwVAxaNJ13J
"I'm sorry."347Please respect copyright.PENANAxNtBIsoNzE
347Please respect copyright.PENANAAzGQKlp8tR
He pinched the bridge of his nose and motioned for me to walk ahead of him. "Just head out to the car, please."347Please respect copyright.PENANA8oQni6MscC
347Please respect copyright.PENANAjgJJjWerTN
I nodded and made my way out of the room. The tightness in my chest seemed to only get worse and I felt like a fucking idiot. It was my first real day with him and I already was pissing him off.347Please respect copyright.PENANAIvP7bUYiIi
347Please respect copyright.PENANAdL5ilbxDul
I could feel his eyes burning into my back as we walked through the casino. I just knew he was going to report back to Naomi about what a failure I was at this. Maybe he would just off me and end my misery before it got worse.347Please respect copyright.PENANAEIrulK1U0w
347Please respect copyright.PENANASxTeqyDowC
The guard at the front of the casino nodded as the two of us started to make our exit towards his car. I really just wanted to go home and cry at this point.347Please respect copyright.PENANAQCWKPCds5T
347Please respect copyright.PENANA9LXf2E9Gl9
I don't know why I even cared about how he reacted to me. I barely knew anything about him and was nothing but a disposable employee to him.347Please respect copyright.PENANAfxskccyCRc
347Please respect copyright.PENANATmUjKwoH60
I'm an idiot for even questioning my feelings towards him. He's my boss, that's it.347Please respect copyright.PENANAO3PhWdJSix
347Please respect copyright.PENANAH855FTfW2s
"Wait."347Please respect copyright.PENANAj03juFRy42
347Please respect copyright.PENANAuKMqLcusvb
I stopped in my tracks as Kalon pulled me back towards him by my waist. I felt the stiffness of his stomach against my back and looked up towards him, confused.347Please respect copyright.PENANASuSaQ7A1Dw
347Please respect copyright.PENANAhNfIrGzyay
Before Kalon had time to even react gunfire begun to ring out around us, shattering the windows. I heard the people around us scream in horror as my body hit the building.347Please respect copyright.PENANAt205FTvqs2
