Time had gotten away from me fast. The days felt repetitive and I'm not even sure how I let so much get by.354Please respect copyright.PENANAz3iVCcP9U5
354Please respect copyright.PENANAGaN0EW4ZgE
Before I knew it, I'd been living in the mansion for two months. May had been kind enough to convince Mr. Wolfe to allow me to finish my senior year online and skip the whole graduation ceremony part.354Please respect copyright.PENANAA3sxOQEmvi
354Please respect copyright.PENANAJU9tJKmdxd
I received my diploma and since then have just been helping with duties around the estate until I'm provided an official assignment.354Please respect copyright.PENANAZbgshfm0Oy
354Please respect copyright.PENANAvWzTh6cuzB
Since that weird day at the pizza place, May had avoided the topic as much as possible. On the way back, I had begged to know why she reacted the way she did.354Please respect copyright.PENANAfkj3uElkxW
354Please respect copyright.PENANAcUgJYUq0Wj
It was always the same response about Kalon Wolfe being extremely dangerous and not wanting his "help" to be in his presence when he's out.354Please respect copyright.PENANASNBlN3yUVs
354Please respect copyright.PENANA8hnV45nj3H
I still knew nothing about this mysterious boss man. Nobody around the grounds spoke of him much and when he was brought up, everyone acted as if they had just brought up the antichrist.354Please respect copyright.PENANAvPMHBbvtrd
354Please respect copyright.PENANAd7JTbF775w
I knew the bare minimum from the contract and it was very evident that Mr. Wolfe is a man who is involved in illegal and dangerous things. I just didn't understand why he basically moved around here as if he was a ghost.354Please respect copyright.PENANAwwL4g5FZSE
354Please respect copyright.PENANAyroWtsLRo2
Every morning, I'd wake up around 6 am and help prepare breakfast with May for the morning. At times, the men in Mr. Wolfe's little 'cult' would show up and grab some breakfast before running off again and not being seen for weeks or even months.354Please respect copyright.PENANAcK9NL25eYY
354Please respect copyright.PENANAC1LpUWlZdc
The only one who seemed to be around often had been Landon. It was clear his big brother wanted him out of whatever business he was involved in with the Wolfe organization.354Please respect copyright.PENANAdJ81yoQcx9
354Please respect copyright.PENANAbuZia5vulw
I had tried to pry anything out of Landon about the secrets around here but he swore that he had been kept in the dark himself. Any time he even tried to arrange a meeting with Kalon Wolfe he was just dismissed as some dumb and childish kid. 354Please respect copyright.PENANA9fTFgh1dOC
354Please respect copyright.PENANA95XoZQ0ZXC
"What do you feel like doing tomorrow?"354Please respect copyright.PENANAkLhN3j6D3C
354Please respect copyright.PENANAT4vwhkQF7U
I looked up from my reflection in the pool and glanced over at Landon. He had his feet kicked up casually on a lounge chair and was sipping on a coke.354Please respect copyright.PENANAKTTlneaikQ
354Please respect copyright.PENANAlHGx9JssLP
"Is there ever anything different to do?" I laughed and kicked my feet through the warm, pool water.354Please respect copyright.PENANA2wQvUntep5
354Please respect copyright.PENANAXsFsA0Lzp0
"You'd think living in a mansion you'd never get bored," He chuckled and tossed an arm over his eyes. "We could bowl? Watch a movie?"354Please respect copyright.PENANA6Rpx1sJGis
354Please respect copyright.PENANAfqTiuZMqi3
"Eh," I sighed and slowly lowered myself into the water. "Can't we go explore?"354Please respect copyright.PENANApiJAjdWPRr
354Please respect copyright.PENANAp97tmGL9GT
"What do you mean?"354Please respect copyright.PENANAaAaXUz941a
354Please respect copyright.PENANAY2AK20C4KY
I looked out towards the setting sun and watched as the shadows crept quickly across the green lawn as it hit the massive trees surrounding us.354Please respect copyright.PENANAgDQ1IBAdFX
354Please respect copyright.PENANA9KgtyPrsSd
"Like OUT there..."I murmured and turned back towards him. "I haven't been out since that day with May."354Please respect copyright.PENANANXz6XvhPYH
354Please respect copyright.PENANAwtvsztKP8r
"I don't know..."Landon sighs and pulls himself up. "Jax is always an asshole about me doing anything away from the estate."354Please respect copyright.PENANAA1vQ9jmben
354Please respect copyright.PENANAB1B1HmTS5f
"We can't just be normal teenagers?" I chuckled.354Please respect copyright.PENANAqFLMapuLSv
354Please respect copyright.PENANARd4022pNyA
He shrugged, "Not when you're involved with a man like Kalon Wolfe. Besides, you don't have long before you're considered an old woman."354Please respect copyright.PENANAokbw7pqe4M
354Please respect copyright.PENANAarbeQXgvNh
I narrowed my eyes at him. I would've been excited to turn eighteen but that was before my brother was taken from me.354Please respect copyright.PENANAYc949xwGRJ
354Please respect copyright.PENANADIoHaATkrK
The thought of turning eighteen just meant I'd be entering a whole new chapter in my life by myself. I had finished high school without him and now I'd be starting the rest of my life without him.354Please respect copyright.PENANAF5Lqoc5yi0
354Please respect copyright.PENANAyUIi0JjVAO
Plus, not knowing what my assignment from Mr. Wolfe would be didn't sit very well with me at all. If I had it my way, I'd just keep helping May every day for the rest of my life.354Please respect copyright.PENANA5ChCVR6rvw
354Please respect copyright.PENANAMvkm7SbWwc
"Yeah, totally ancient." I groaned and rested my head against the cool of the stone wrapped around the edge of the pool.354Please respect copyright.PENANAB6Z8YTIQdS
354Please respect copyright.PENANAI9nnAKQkWF
"Are you going to have a party?" He chirped up in a sing-song voice. "I bet Jax would totally love to throw a party for you."354Please respect copyright.PENANAvtHc1k6Koz
354Please respect copyright.PENANAzmoY9vMPVp
"What do you mean?" I snorted.354Please respect copyright.PENANA8etDfFDLRQ
354Please respect copyright.PENANAAnvqRsGlNc
Landon rolled his eyes, "He has the hots for you, Robbie."354Please respect copyright.PENANAabJLWVY7hp
354Please respect copyright.PENANAVzfSdjjgY0
"Jax? Jax has the hots for me?" I scoffed. Why would anyone like Jax want anything to do with me? The man is practically a model. 354Please respect copyright.PENANAU6OC6ca9nq
354Please respect copyright.PENANAIkhcmC83o3
"I mean...I don't blame him." Landon says shyly, his cheeks blushed with pink. "You are cute."354Please respect copyright.PENANA9g9EB1mLjZ
354Please respect copyright.PENANAdpW2dCSYDP
I stared at him and waited for the punch line.354Please respect copyright.PENANA1nUCZQSW3P
354Please respect copyright.PENANALjUgrY2TdQ
"What?" He demanded, sounding very offended. "Why are you looking at me like I'm joking?"354Please respect copyright.PENANAkRQr0qa0Ki
354Please respect copyright.PENANA994U2mC4a9
"Because that just doesn't happen for someone like me."354Please respect copyright.PENANAwnW4fSqzPW
354Please respect copyright.PENANASYR1vjzBY2
Landon shook his head, "You need to give yourself more credit."354Please respect copyright.PENANAfSjGhp0aXf
354Please respect copyright.PENANASu38ODO5x8
"Well, tell your brother to stop being a sissy and tell me himself." I laughed and splashed up water toward him.354Please respect copyright.PENANADKjhvsOYIf
354Please respect copyright.PENANAmGyTn0Shon
"I'll get right on that." He said as he wiped off the drops of water that hit his Gucci sunglasses.354Please respect copyright.PENANATyfolDkjJS
354Please respect copyright.PENANALH0mz78GSc
"As I was saying, I think we should go do something." I continued on with my spiel. "I'm tired of doing the same thing here and always having someone breathing down my neck."354Please respect copyright.PENANAjvHdmFOnWg
354Please respect copyright.PENANAcnjJUSk7Pf
I glanced behind me to catch sight of the two guards who had been staring at us since we came outside almost two hours ago.354Please respect copyright.PENANAhuY0jOIhm1
354Please respect copyright.PENANAhPbFkFwNLk
"Even if we leave, someone is going to follow." Landon rolled his eyes. "Plus, what do you expect us to go do? It's not like we can go to a club."354Please respect copyright.PENANAPnnPnUbnxm
354Please respect copyright.PENANAqYT9yk3myw
"Sure we can..."I smiled widely and he shook his head immediately. "I'm not asking about it."354Please respect copyright.PENANAsqgAlwM4EL
354Please respect copyright.PENANAA9uS6uJKvr
"PLEASE! Come on, Landon! PLEASE!"354Please respect copyright.PENANABXkYkuUMbp
354Please respect copyright.PENANABTZSLinyvf
"Robbie, no! He's never going to agree to it."354Please respect copyright.PENANAgfeUvc2kfm
354Please respect copyright.PENANAudH0r3En6s
Almost two weeks ago, Landon had confided in me when he found out one of the Wolfe men likes to produce fake ids in his free time for extra cash. Apparently, this is a service not approved by Kalon Wolfe himself and would get him into some serious trouble when and if, it gets back to the boss.354Please respect copyright.PENANAVPpC85VLKQ
354Please respect copyright.PENANAxVWjrRl4GI
"You said he even offered to make you one," I shot back and folded my arms over my chest as a chill hit me. "Why would he say no to making two?"354Please respect copyright.PENANARMtJCVdnnp
354Please respect copyright.PENANAOC9zBNwAwu
"He was drunk, Robbie! He probably just blurted it out, plus he knows the boss would kill him if he found out he was running this behind his back."354Please respect copyright.PENANAsD9wTCCz8b
354Please respect copyright.PENANAMaafuigYeK
I rolled my eyes, "All of you act like Kalon Wolfe is just going to shoot you in the head at any moment."354Please respect copyright.PENANAM2Y08xaupf
354Please respect copyright.PENANA8pvwQ06sfC
Landon didn't laugh, instead, he sighed dramatically and pulled his cellphone out from his pocket. "Give me twenty minutes."354Please respect copyright.PENANA7rlaeDMaiz
354Please respect copyright.PENANA8KUGKjAYEo
"You are the BEST!"354Please respect copyright.PENANAn1IYW83zJQ
354Please respect copyright.PENANAw1qcai2f7s
_354Please respect copyright.PENANAmyy270JjFu
354Please respect copyright.PENANAKWReaAid5m
"Hey, Robbie! Are you in there?"354Please respect copyright.PENANA90mVcX9186
354Please respect copyright.PENANASEELkyxKGt
I glanced up at my bedroom door as Landon's voice echoed through it. "Come in!" I called and stood up from my bed, brushing my hair out.354Please respect copyright.PENANAoYngI2Gexy
354Please respect copyright.PENANAZzJyjiIlsk
He pushed open the door and walked in with his hands clasped tightly behind his back. He looked entirely too suspicious.354Please respect copyright.PENANAXR6HkEodek
354Please respect copyright.PENANA1p1EBQxx2G
"Please tell me you didn't walk around here looking like that," I laughed and he glared back at me.354Please respect copyright.PENANAM5L2ElbqHg
354Please respect copyright.PENANA5CQQ9FdNY1
"I didn't want to get caught!"354Please respect copyright.PENANAa75dSNho2R
354Please respect copyright.PENANAL4qWOTVMaE
I sat the brush down on my nightstand and chuckled. "You look so guilty."354Please respect copyright.PENANAPDmHPbrD9u
354Please respect copyright.PENANAOxsWc6YAMN
"Whatever," He huffed and tossed something at me. "What do you think?"354Please respect copyright.PENANAiO2KNtTl20
354Please respect copyright.PENANAEfy3MmbkGs
I picked it up and turned it over in my hands. It was a picture of me scanned off of my original id but had a whole different identity and age of 22 years old.354Please respect copyright.PENANAxYVimvM2vV
354Please respect copyright.PENANAxZC3e0i9l4
"Marilyn E. Wilson?" I said as I read it over. "Think I can pass for twenty-two?"354Please respect copyright.PENANAPwHz7A24Mg
354Please respect copyright.PENANARdoqPmGPME
"Think I can pass for twenty-one?" Landon laughed and held up his fake id next to his face. Honestly, with as boyish and young he looked it would be a miracle if the bouncer doesn't question it.354Please respect copyright.PENANAt3NgxyV5RU
354Please respect copyright.PENANATmbYYM4rCc
"Did you talk to him about joining us tonight?" I asked and walked across the room to lay out a few makeup items May had purchased for me. I wasn't a huge makeup fan, but considering I have been walking around here looking like a hobo daily I might as well dress up.354Please respect copyright.PENANApPLMnZYdLc
354Please respect copyright.PENANAELGJhUBujk
"I had to give him an extra hundred, but yes he's joining us," Landon muttered sadly. "He let the others know he's escorting us to a movie and they agreed."354Please respect copyright.PENANAKhUaGGYQNN
354Please respect copyright.PENANA9GU16AFByF
"See! Easy peasy." I teased him and studied my face in the mirror.354Please respect copyright.PENANAd4OiK7VwRR
354Please respect copyright.PENANAQgKwRiejtD
"Not for my wallet." He groaned and fell backward onto the bed. "You owe me!"354Please respect copyright.PENANAdprIgjnWzW
354Please respect copyright.PENANAKZVyfCBf7y
"I got you! Just wait for me to start my job."354Please respect copyright.PENANAOoEJHPVk1h
354Please respect copyright.PENANAZh5acM8t47
"Are you nervous?" He asked lowly and I looked at him over my shoulder. His green eyes watched me intensely. "Does it scare you?"354Please respect copyright.PENANApU4FEHtj5h
354Please respect copyright.PENANA085JVFfS9H
"I guess so," I shrugged my shoulders and picked up some mascara. "I'm just ready to make money so I can save up and move."354Please respect copyright.PENANATTTezjHpvt
354Please respect copyright.PENANAhbqhlCvV3I
"Move?" He asked, confused.354Please respect copyright.PENANAiJsupILVcV
354Please respect copyright.PENANAx44s5JGtzL
"Yeah? May said some of his employees don't live on the grounds."354Please respect copyright.PENANA1PbvvqtW0J
354Please respect copyright.PENANAh7Hk9G7U8b
"I highly doubt he'll let you leave," Landon chuckled and I felt my body go hot. 354Please respect copyright.PENANAqGmPuUWjgd
354Please respect copyright.PENANAjjiIIAlwRE
"What do you mean? He has to let me live somewhere else?" I argued and Landon eyed me cautiously before speaking again. "I'm just being honest, Robbie"354Please respect copyright.PENANA1RBd62xbwJ
354Please respect copyright.PENANAx57eQv3m77
"Whatever! I don't want to focus on that right now. Since I'm turning ancient as you put it, tonight you are celebrating with me and we are both getting hammered." I told him cheerfully.354Please respect copyright.PENANAgmCJzNSscZ
354Please respect copyright.PENANAQnvXvwabxv
"Illegally?"354Please respect copyright.PENANA2JzXOM0zbm
354Please respect copyright.PENANAyjjxhWFQ1x
"Have you ever broke the rules before, Landon?" I chuckled and swiped the wand against my lashes.354Please respect copyright.PENANAWVYqefyExv
354Please respect copyright.PENANAGzbVaf39IO
"I stole some gum once when I was five," He said proudly. "I also smoked a cigarette when I was twelve."354Please respect copyright.PENANAg0LFGsICcB
354Please respect copyright.PENANATQixk3k5Pa
"Wow! A true rebel," I snorted.354Please respect copyright.PENANA6vOcq2jeqW
354Please respect copyright.PENANAVEnfWX4KcN
"Sorry! Didn't know you were such a rule breaker, Robbie." He huffed and pushed away from the bed. "See you in an hour."354Please respect copyright.PENANAHaTymFc8Mf
354Please respect copyright.PENANA8QK4ZREKOE
I waited for the door to close fully before I pulled off the swimsuit cover along with my top and bottoms and tossed them to a bin next to me. I stood, naked, in front of the mirror mounted over my dresser and studied myself.354Please respect copyright.PENANANWdLcxz7Og
354Please respect copyright.PENANA4SycNl9tau
I can't believe Jax has a crush on me. He could have any girl in the world and he wants someone like me?354Please respect copyright.PENANAAmb0N36tRK
354Please respect copyright.PENANAV5oqyx2QaE
Small breasts and the size of a 12-year old boy. I always had been told in high school that I had a nice ass for someone as thin as me.354Please respect copyright.PENANAMey58eOFWs
354Please respect copyright.PENANA1aW1osqI94
I was used to the back-handed compliments though. If it wasn't about my ass, it was something to do with my eyes being too big for my face but making me look cute as a baby deer or bunny. Other times, it was me being too pale but that meaning I'm angelic looking.354Please respect copyright.PENANAK7w7p7CDIU
354Please respect copyright.PENANAYgecTb20XD
It was never, 'Robbie, you have beautiful big eyes.' Or 'Robbie, you have beautiful pale skin.'354Please respect copyright.PENANABCRyi2277P
354Please respect copyright.PENANALY59xoDi5q
There always had to be an insult tied in there.354Please respect copyright.PENANA9fy4Oa0XY4
354Please respect copyright.PENANAv1bzuV9OAf
I felt tears sting the corners of my eyes and fought them off. I took a deep breath and walked across the room towards the over-sized closet I tried to avoid about 90% of the time.354Please respect copyright.PENANAlRUhJXgFR0
354Please respect copyright.PENANAq58A34U4jN
Tonight would be different. Tonight I'd reinvent myself. Tonight I'd prove that a girl like me IS good enough for a guy like Jax.354Please respect copyright.PENANA3h31De87Lb
354Please respect copyright.PENANAWo9gUILg7Y
Robbie Quinn is a bad bitch.
