That week was a fucking nightmare with Naomi. 434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwHlVTxxWO
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWgCeKEGiV
The blonde, bimbo monster bitch absolutely hated me and she wanted to make sure I didn't forget it.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaUHU5WWk3
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyAYH8U8ug
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Zb2g2guvX
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeDPmWi6V6
I usually finished up by noon without any time to even piss, let alone fucking breathe!434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloHyCFNwYS
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYLkI3VBhW
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3WrGnWQOd
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHwFVEn9Qq
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6hlrVZcmf
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBaXBJxI11
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7lHGdW61z
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEfykRKr3A
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLX8Cer8gN
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm1mBxutfX
I can't lie, it made me extremely nervous. Just looking over Kalon's extravagant life really put things into perspective.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i4s0b0MLa
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRN5g9MkCNT
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKknuOGFtUx
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ep7ovAsrY
Who the fuck needs to buy four private jets in one month? 434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTKnbAW8Q5
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimhFR1HlM3
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkmxujxEkT
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFD81ZiyOl
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DJAQgDRPG
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3fFQBQKco
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXUbnweM2J
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfYHFEVMTa
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKe0NHpFlry
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWQHtB9YMX
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhbY3fBL0V
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOAG6LMjEC
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8ohAy4z9I
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmnjFKzYGZ
I hated Naomi. I hated Kalon for this job. I hated this damn life.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMkS4EIIM3
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPZQzblwzW
Most of all... I fucking missed my brother. My parents.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvUeLJSNbv
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Yb5fUJHr6
I never pictured my life like this. I just wanted it to be normal again.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmvFqGaaYS
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAQi0kpnVG
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHu0qUWksv
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WjMSBSX7D
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡio4Dx8ddfT
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdP3kUaOdX
Fucking asshole.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj52K0gJ2Rd
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tFIoQ5KvU
"Let's go, Roberta!"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FaIamVos7
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvdIwDbeYc
I groaned loudly and slammed down my blush compact. It wasn't even time for Naomi to harass me yet.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9miJtCJ0A
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGJDWxq9iW
"I haven't even had time to get your latte, Naomi," I snapped and ripped the door open.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQ0D2dha9F
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnNqK2MMFR
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpZcN94I07
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjjtUEylNd
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jra6xUGwb
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lUQFCVaQd
"I am going to be gone today, but you are to report to the office to assist Axel."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxIhQjH2VD
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLdgGV7AJY
My brows furrowed. "Axel?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWLb3RSVjr
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKnTaPSNnA
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."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj6WL5sqyW
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpS9X9QVGN
"Okay...so what am I doing today then?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPOrdKJ9ZC
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWaTd5QzL3
She looked up at me, annoyed. "Just shut up and walk."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gLLUGeDBW
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyj7MT7glX
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitTJPvRZrJ
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEFy4wPPaD
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUM0ywKiG2s
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRdChJRZ5A
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUHQa26LKC
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2m2CrDy6Nz
"Naomi! What's up my favorite blonde bitch?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5V7jcWcgYQ
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXDt3FpU5X
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQVCevYh1i
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqHYKHLh2L
"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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptcm0wpR48
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBx0uobdKLL
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4SLEVr0Lw
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ67lZToUr
"Nice to meet you, sir," I said politely and approached him.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmj5sZwg6K
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmK9Z8V6jsq
He reached out and shook my hand. "Axel."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLW9dJyn08o
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUYuuBcRGg
I nodded and met his mismatched eyes. One a brilliant blue color and the other nearly pitch black.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yPqQD6Wce
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaZbO8yzax
"The girls love it." He laughed.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsILa8qs19K
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHdk2YrRZX
I blinked. "What?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOyFbwlmyL
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97HbSfuGPD
He smirked and pointed towards his eyes. "It makes me look mysterious."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGTIaCWPCc
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW9bk9bOtR
"Doesn't make up for you being a gigantic douche, "Naomi muttered. "Where's Ramirez, by the way?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2x77R1dMig
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2u65w5r2fJ
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuqmn2eelP
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71c1GW0fCH
"Ma'am?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsZbtgyaIH
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3jZDLjYPw
"Normal order, please. Get on it." Naomi barked out.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfkoKlKMIQ
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquK7Y1tVkR
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0ow9Xn6Qn
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjKB0Wj1Qa
"Oh, no!" I said instinctively and moved to fix them. 434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lXCZkekzk
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEvdE0GLOP
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jw8g3brwo
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmXEmi3L4A
His fingers slowly stroked the back of my hand as he turned it palm side up and trailed his nail along the lines there.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrPndR1jKQ
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdzTN45Ux8
"Beautiful hands."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCYv2gQlHn
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rhRnDBJlh
"T-thank you?" I stammered and pulled away.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JM81RAwLg
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfo1xXqC13i
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx392mUwmnN
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcYua9ay0W
"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."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvojRNorOA
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gyrxZSav7
"Play nice," Axel scolded and looked at me apologetically. "You have somewhere better to be anyway."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfBVu3gA8c
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYgV2cK3dc
"That I do," Naomi sighed and looked over at me with a snarky grin. "Good luck."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7HHIiFDrz
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73UqSPfp2P
Axel and I watched as the blonde demon exited the room, chatting away happily on her cellphone as she did.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN71a3JMKvR
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5KYfhBMkm
He shook his head and smiled, "Sorry, about Naomi, I wish Kalon would hire women who aren't secret succubi."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuelS08Kfmz
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDcnE46WaJ
I shrugged, "I guess it's all part of the job."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEF8zcyB9g
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGoPd5tNdE
"I suppose," He grinned crookedly. "Would you like a drink?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIVL7M5ct0
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK60qMekkca
"Am I suppose to be drinking?" I chuckled awkwardly. "I kind of got myself into trouble with your cousin on that one."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHNSCdykAZ
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQQLtuTJ6i
"Ahh, you are the party girl?" He teased and fetched a bottle of champagne. "Kalon sure was pissed about that."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6hsDLivOw
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rgcBPz4GC
My cheeks flushed. "He told you?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXu9dalgZii
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7IeH3r0E7
Axel nodded as he poured the glasses, "He didn't shut up about it for about a week. Caused some trouble between the brothers."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMa4w4YZOJ
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO3GViSGdN
"And Carlos?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMG4nHAQbCl
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrucrgJXZ00
"Yeah...Carlos." His lips tightened as he said it.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9Z53Ep2oT
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWcx7Y8W49
"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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWn6jeUA0k
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP4OFU52mv
"Terminated." He said simply and handed me my glass.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWS2P2dVdRO
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRi9Wx7r5h
"Really? I thought this was a forever thing?" I asked and took a sip.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRTy3i7ftm
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn85Ftu7BGh
"Depends on the situation," He sighed and trailed his fingertip along the edge. "You ask a lot of questions."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GFvCJRRsT
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufEo0Fp0XV
"Curious, I guess."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkNj8DxXEo
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFK16wXEUNK
"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."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmihhvF4243
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFipq8OUPSY
"Oh, I'll surprise you."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0Z7exhhdE
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYAuW6pquP
He smirked. "I don't doubt that, Ms. Quinn."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskqwQ7zQKl
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4V3Tzisjut
I met his unique eyes again and felt my cheeks heat up like wildfire. "U-uh, so what are we doing today, sir?"434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn63G674P7
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuB944zvF5a
He shook his head. "Axel is fine."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXebl6z78EO
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKHMVUusHc
"Sorry...sir, I mean Axel!" I stuttered.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5AGftif8G
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4StXGiku7a
He just laughed and tossed me a stack of folders. "Have at it, princess."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtJTnjg68h
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9onCPzU0fk
"Just this?" I said as I flipped through it. Naomi usually dumped enough paperwork on me to last half of my day.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApujYOBEAI
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBpvbAT6d3
"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."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vXi1sZ7dk
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM0bnMA5eu
"With Naomi, there are no breaks or days off," I said lowly. "I'm completely fine working the full day."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZGSp8MJwD
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKHrJXhWgx
"Don't worry about it, I got your back." He reassured and stuck his pinky out. "I promise."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMPTZUzS8i
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2iF5MCVi0
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh48meCkgW2
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3g44gq5lKE
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.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnPy1s132u
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxlaoGgvFH
"I like you," Axel said lowly and ran his fingers over mine. "You are different."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjXG7yeUdk
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBX9W7tdM9
"T-thank you." I stammered, my heart racing now.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDhj5T7E9B
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXHPmP1iA1
He chuckled and licked his lower lip. "I'd like to take you to dinner."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoP31xlrUKI
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxbLOieqkI
My breath caught. "U-uh...I'm...I'm not sure... uh."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF7KjeqIfn
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxTG0hg0AL
"Just think about it," He said and used his free hand to grab a pen. "Call me when you do."434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LqhfRDjNM
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWRKuxfqU8
I watched in silence as he scrabbled his phone number on my palm, his intense gaze never leaving mine as he did.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6hA9g2K4n
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmfNJ0Uk20
"Oh...ok..." I started out, unsure of what to say.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVOubM2x0R
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlwgyCt7Rn
"Get to work, Ms. Quinn." He said playfully and pushed off the desk.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgLlcYSZW6
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNl2T0Ldn3O
I sat there in complete disbelief as the folders in my hands felt like they were now hundreds of pounds.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2XsEVpk4c
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL1VUvD9wa
