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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMVmMQVVO5
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPki2smaoGx
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQ02DYUn7E
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUxtciOCPd
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlgGeFF29k
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ0hLpPx1i
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDNOR6yEiS
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAfAhOTkIH
And then the next he was unleashing a desire inside of me like nothing I've felt before.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmOwwiGdJk
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ3drK5JKB
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym2n1bTj7k
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUAvIyLvnM
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EriL4Ddxy
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCKdpbqYsG
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ2JXQNbFn
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxvNB4mrIM
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KvcOBQiS8
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKxRZ3kAze
"So what are we doing today?" I nudged Landon's side.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcBzIhH8D2
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD11KbxAfZ
He eyed me carefully. "Same as always...right?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nSMTpZ9Uv
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ep8HjdY70
I sighed and leaned onto my elbows. "Right."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDyZb34C32
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8CpQHJwa3
"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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgswvaqo243
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCBcGEkRWb
"I know, I just wish we had more to do," I whined pitifully.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqD0b06jrRT
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6bUkQ3Ion
"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?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRhlRAyB6T
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhglFXnTq62
"Okay, mom."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLnoB8NvzB
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOmtw7jonc
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrHPsfmAy4
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Nq0uhGJtM
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5e9iRtCd3S
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3lXHI73tc
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSHRKFWSu7
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9VgZh8uc3
"Hey!" I snapped and rubbed the back of it. "I was grabbing that."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLu2s21yE5
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9418Ev34A
"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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZQ0YmN0ht
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZPWOmoZQP
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxltqAaFv5G
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6324xylr2
"Ladies go first," May scolded him and he smiled sheepishly.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZGTuUpGw7
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQLHI6eO6w
"Sorry."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGL0B46f3B
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKgNfKMHA4
"It's fine," I muttered and finally picked my sandwich from the plate. "Where are Finn and Liam?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuyMvTfGT1
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeegxytECAt
He shrugged, "Probably on the way. I know Liam was on the phone with his girlfriend."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDISlIsQix1
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdU4q5JhwQ0
This was news to me. "Liam? Liam has a girlfriend?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEXkavgsZR
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2EquKl9T4
"I'm not that bad looking."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTxolVldc7
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkGcBAo5fX
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. 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcbnIcQUL4
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXtHmaWdyE
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSAKidajec
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYmbhqDGlN
"Keep telling yourself that," Samuel howled and Liam tossed a chip at him.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRw65i45Fe
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sQhHYmSrJ
May slapped him on the back, "No messes!"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTvlIVsiHj
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUr9CMISzri
"Sorry, May." They said in unison. 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhJCE0ZQG2
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewiVO1Bruw
Samuel looked up at me as he took another bite. "So, Quinn, have you been to the family club yet?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviRCGHUyDw
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2Al2VE9Fr
"Uh...the what?" I laughed.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULQKCdNoLP
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd0SSAn55o
He rolled his eyes, "The main club the family owns? Girls, alcohol, dr-"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSJjxGnuBg
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTsZRQUB4N
Landon cut him off. "Robbie has already had her share of club adventures. Mr. Wolfe doesn't want her getting involved."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOUAJS7A8m
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2g8GtWn3Sl
"I heard all about her little adventure that got Carlos-"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELGYKe0iaV
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcZ0VzFZh3
"Can you just shut the fuck up?" Landon snapped harshly.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawpcxyzZhh
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQlK5RiGVZ
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhQQkPgNRp
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2eNUNESI7
"Landon? What's wrong?" I whispered to him and he shook his head.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm562JhDgm5
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmsnMX4D6W
"I don't want to get into it."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MAdK4sTW9
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaZRP0zzug
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKcTHdUy0l
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkfFun0eK4
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiKIfuBLfx
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzBzQJmOdz
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo60mgM0S4
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ153LsjRPFv
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3ZEFXPDbv
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof8S0ii3cZ
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XZ3YEQ31H
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdQmnoSqsS
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoNzWGG8Wf
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84br8wmhog
Kalon Wolfe may be a cold, heartless monster, but I couldn't find it in me to hate him.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgNfhpRJ6D
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLZKUGLept
"What's going on, Quinn?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiP8IW3Z0i
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNTEyp2pE7
I looked back at Samuel as he stepped onto the balcony next to me and lit up a cigarette.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Be56h0L7q
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFwOYWkwtu
"Just enjoying the weather."
He inhaled deeply. "Has Landon always been so protective of you?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxshvd3Rhvt
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJfkK8g4h6
I looked at him, confused. "Protective?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyoSZkPh2F
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZ59M4UcvP
"Yeah," He blew out a string of smoke rings. "Seems like he doesn't want you to know anything."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeabNNmRUp
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhFaDDInrc
"Well, I'm not an idiot about what goes on around here, but Landon is just trying to keep out of trouble.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRp8c8X67kZ
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWYWi4qvNj
He nodded and took another drag. "I heard you got him into some deep shit with his brother and the boss."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMPx6S32pI
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2ZgllS5sT
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp2F0v22te
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5C8CpSlm2
"Well, if you ever want to have real fun, I'm your man." Samuel laughed and smiled widely. 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSJp1GQI3k
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KfK6YYq1c
"How so?" I asked, eyeing him curiously.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMPNYQ8xnN
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAd0AW3CUq
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpriYDl2nu
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONvinAxKpQ
This was news to me. "Anybody can go under contract then?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvDocCP8At
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOWCbsf1cK
"Yep," He grinned crookedly at me. "Even you, Quinn."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKnSaeJhFH
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJAalRZcDL
"I don't want to piss anyone off, especially Ka- I mean, Mr. Wolfe."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwrscuO0Lq
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw2MNMC7aZ
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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GmNJCk0uL
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhfx1B8SPz
"He's here?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUECOfg8hY
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJwng1XjM5
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JOOJDFN0i
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHReNftQC1B
"What makes you say that?" I laughed.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt15iZj27Q
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsHlNctPby
He looked me up and down. "Don't be stupid."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwgK7Ak8Ij
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMj5ZTgDZW
"Won't he be pissed though if he hears I'm there? Especially, after what happened the last time."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq79QFA1wS
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG731M7lNI
"As I said, Axel has his ways," He winked. "Don't worry about Mr. Wolfe, you deserve to have fun too."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSRCXX6dzA
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uLWnvmpvO
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEri3bvNliw
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctzfGZZ7CW
"Don't worry about the kid," Samuel said when he noticed my gaze. "Jax is just protective of him."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eZUfPRVoZ
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJl9nkyiddM
"Okay," I muttered and looked back up at him. "When can we go?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp3RSUtGZw
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BDTf9wWy3
_338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFUyQ0QaAX
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8zPJkeprw
"Keep up, Quinn!"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsqsBidI7O
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGraZ9wuNvf
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPl8aXTe7Yl
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN3SgbpauH
"You could walk slower!" I huffed at him.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u7MB37ahW
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXPt3f9CHh
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpat8mH3cTY
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwEcCEPvs7
Liam kicked a rock back in my direction. "Pick better shoes, princess."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjmX1Qt6de
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UPzeSLfiF
"Dick!"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdraLWW6DE
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh52rtBCJcl
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayxW955Dhw
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBeqMLz52n
"Are we at the right place?" I asked as we rounded the corner.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTo5Vk0gUB
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WJFFoAwti
"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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJut5c6aOM
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaWznbjrvY
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWfhvKLYJL
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYat0Vdh8XP
"Where's Axel?" Samuel said and flashed what looked like an ID.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoimGCp1eku
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZWmwsv1L4
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. 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT2H1VahR1
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvdF2CbH49
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxOI3dtkgS
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ekl8LblXf
It was weird to see anyone who worked with Kalon dressed in something so normal.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEF3dnfyei
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlJtznkwFD
"Ahh! Look who you brought with you!" He cheered and reached out to grasp my hands. "How have you been?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHd3qFdihy
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3I1yhTfhKq
I blushed a bit when I caught his mismatched eyes roaming over my red velvet dress. "I've been okay, just working."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9auOps4lc
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pB566RR9W
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7XhN7oWlW
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CHh4pSd1j
"You could say that."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmE8qNtUmKT
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAG9zqeOKu
Axel grinned unevenly and brought my palm up to kiss it. "I'm so glad you are here."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20LDF13V0O
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxHPEfkYy8
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E0relFhcJ
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuWvn0FGO9
"Me too."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJxBNsMTZx
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPvSAufGxt
"Alright, kids," Samuel fake gagged. "Let's get inside because daddy needs a drink."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8dWvPiHTm
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaC33LH1I9
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡie4OsRMzZp
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ022lO03tR0
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dLsm58eue
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaQ8FoClSB
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wy4vM2r1m
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFTzYk0CVX
"This is Kalon's?" I said to Axel and he nodded.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUXESewvDS
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwjlOOqCmd
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzm3NeRfJP
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MRXXP5L6A
"Money laundering?" I laughed.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvr232lJerl
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1kXgI2qaZ
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREPpIBzbJY
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0FcfhO6Ro
"Seems like a lot to handle."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1SxRHveNr
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLOtclUmPH
"Yeah, but that's why you get guys like me involved." He winked and playfully bumped my shoulder. "Want a drink?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUHNns2ZWg
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOrkiJwVJS
"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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TWejIq1Ar
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcc3YHIeH2
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLamLgiMTUJ
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2L8IyifX0
"Is that so?" I teased and took the shot glass from him.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZDEmVk3ED
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMqRSiUnGO
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3Ponlge36
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIxFvpk11Z
"Why didn't you text me?" He asked and handed me the second shot.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKPJqgfwVR
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiYG87MHK6
My cheeks blushed. "I'm sorry...I just-"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMk8CAfvhqD
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmfRsrzJpT
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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ytWj3sXLh
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcdHSs8foj
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IOO43jIvb
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZL5wSu6Ru
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAghpjFX8N
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2GGlwst5E
"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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1NRi3JD2s
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZsxMn4pPx
"Another?" Axel piped and motioned for the bartender.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0DKBpHkn6
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrahhmKoW28
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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7IB6WfwKn
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8ltLwOn3O
He rolled his eyes and tinked his glass on mine again. "Let me handle him."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKPaDYnpRI
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNQZdkopPM
"Are the two of you close?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEa6zBNmDK
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSlOC8fTbz
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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFVsd0tf7e
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTMwrm4ixi
"What about you?" 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOn5UEoHCK
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtffu55FrB9
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaeqnObZPC
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6pYIPTAEK
"Do you enjoy working with him?" I eyed him curiously.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj76o51uTUe
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdPmHsTjgX
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjZu3Xhw1G
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEoCKyhQpv
"Sounds like the life." 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1JnbGIrxs
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2hXGotqFm
"It's not all it seems," He murmured and let his eyes wander over me again. "Sometimes you get really lonely."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Txm97Hhfo
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUxlKN6k5M
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbYBtAoLyI
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYTWLY03JS
I leaned in closer to him and smirked. "You poor thing."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Z9No7k93D
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X6y2RMGLY
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkW8uzPpdfX
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOqwcNZ082
"Want to get out of here?" He whispered lowly. His lips just inches away from my own.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkN7sVV3w6J
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD5fbqyiyV
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawDNkhlFBA
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0syMESAnL
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVz4iVrpLD
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡky6ujewmC8
"I'm sorry?" I laughed as she pulled away. 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4FLxLmlUy
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSNGpu6WZG
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWL5zaVXaQ
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9dH6I3X8d
"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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcDqASFRqO
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXuuL4U5Ws
"You work for Kalon Wolfe?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqLII6vCmC
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfNPEUllgC
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-"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwRG8uLylj
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBwiZdulLB
Axel cut her off, "She's not a dancer, doll."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjtkCJ4yhb
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBBEx1PGEV
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCim9m9sLOc
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5DX1A4LCW
"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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20LJTA1bzK
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IdfHc5RwX
"O-oh, well, thank you. It was nice meeting you, Maria."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkL4sTpiUO
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEs0IkLL5u8
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKF4RkOCjJx
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ550JQii2yu
"What was that about?" I asked Axel, noticing he was still staring at them too.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXmMSoFiNi
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8dAeo6q0z
He shook his head. "Don't worry about it."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPl5w1muyn8
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJXzzQbgby
"Seems like Maria isn't a fan?" I teased and leaned against the bar. 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuIICT1hUv
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigdgyXPcZO
"Probably because she's my ex-girlfriend."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIu7WYxnpM
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyGZWg6J5L
My jaw dropped. "You dated Maria?"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk90kIty02
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcfCPUp8Fl
"Am I too ugly for her?" He scoffed and ordered two more drinks.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC192IJHhlm
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahbTlUPEuW
"No, I just would've thought with Lia-"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY536qypuLv
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoPHFlPcmK
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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxc86snShep
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTBNrbdVsf
"Try me.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2lOIFTwyG
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwKKueQzzK
He smirked at me and looked behind him. "Maybe another time."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcyGUnJQ8F
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9KRHK8jd6
"Quinn! Get your ass up there!"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn57vqG9Dkc
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB090fJ5x4y
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmj4YpFppSV
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLhva6yKP6
"No!No!" I waved back at them and laughed.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzwBW6FHCp
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuCuvyanIG
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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzjyzFZLwY
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdayNz1WX2d
I rolled my eyes. "Finn, I can't fucking dance. Look at me, I have nothing to show and no rhythm."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jwYWGniRO
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6cASm0e6A
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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7SNsSDZ4O
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgS8sgXRZgz
"You're so lucky I am drunk as hell."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqGI6HhIE4
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNU8JaGl7E
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIP3SsxVI5
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyM9347GW2
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI9L1YZklh
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGBYhgYv0X
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTfH6oznem
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAvaNa3uMH
"Take it off, baby!"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlT8eeJN8I
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JfLM60UmW
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmR03iIgnF
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAY3Jl32ihh
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsDaAR3RuX
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSOTt58UM9
"Come on, Quinn! Show us what you are hiding."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDq4i2qWpIp
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8qEZaTivV
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHXdenYL5j
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpI3Ye5yLg
"Fuck it!" I muttered and reached down to pull my dress off.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1z0Sl2eCE
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMtLvKTxqQ
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQyBxSqJ4Y
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtp0lMPQm6
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8kJyyLrq3
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULprACbIV8
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGinL1X9WP
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJMQkRFu15
I felt so good. I felt so alive and so-338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVajZHoOjp
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaGivbkbMh
*BANG* *BANG* 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBjn0mxRhz
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3rMaWb1QN
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXxbuojzks
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VPVnomCfx
"Turn the fucking music off now!"338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTW7mnOqvU6
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbcCAHZpwh
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabqInBruol
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hOV4k2jgg
"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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9j31qPr15
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1p9Wph4Zn
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RrGNumvqG
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBwI6B05WW
"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."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsBqrMm3hj
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVs61xowzAD
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj21VQqaURD
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDvqei2bYy
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.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cmpWUHW03
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65TvnE9NHL
"Get up and go."338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTdwff6zzF
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC2xlj0iAL
I nodded and stood. I felt so low and defeated. I had fucked up again.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirS9oks6Mo
338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy11zYuD0IU
I'm so fucking dead.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOexZuMFIT5
