The next morning was fucking hell.367Please respect copyright.PENANANDQWgXehkr
367Please respect copyright.PENANAwTY3zrWe0B
I felt as if I had been run over by a damn truck and as soon as the light hit my eyes I was sprinting across the room to vomit violently in my bathroom.367Please respect copyright.PENANAj9MZxHrL5z
367Please respect copyright.PENANA746ixyvHMT
I've never been the kind of girl to go to tons of parties and do drugs. The most I ever did was drink here and there with my brother.367Please respect copyright.PENANA0tKU8uRA6C
367Please respect copyright.PENANAlbs23puxT0
I can't believe I actually did cocaine last night. What the fuck was I thinking?367Please respect copyright.PENANA1unrq7xauz
367Please respect copyright.PENANA9KZ1e7ixAu
Part of me did feel pretty amped up from the fact that I took such a huge risk but the other part of me knew this wasn't me.367Please respect copyright.PENANAxzDGIJf72a
367Please respect copyright.PENANAIcZiahPhel
What was considered normal for me now?367Please respect copyright.PENANAJfTgcDgV1H
367Please respect copyright.PENANAKCaka0WJTn
I have no family, I think I deserve one free pass to do something stupid.367Please respect copyright.PENANAOhwwWdqJ6j
367Please respect copyright.PENANA8bNEr4iPj7
"Hey, Robbie! Are you okay in there?"367Please respect copyright.PENANAqRTGM9xnwI
367Please respect copyright.PENANATDAN78DCIM
I lifted my head weakly as May's voice came from the other side of the bathroom door. "Yes, one second."367Please respect copyright.PENANADjmO64qGKZ
367Please respect copyright.PENANAviYFu2V4sv
I wiped my mouth off and hurried over to the sink to gargle some mouth wash and try to brush the nasty vomit and alcohol taste out of my mouth.367Please respect copyright.PENANAopV0ClOVMe
367Please respect copyright.PENANAPycCQPC4Qp
I caught sight of my appearance and nearly died by how disgusting I looked. 367Please respect copyright.PENANAhYSn7a4KWi
367Please respect copyright.PENANAg2EVTZDVd0
I was still dressed in my tiny black crop top and jean shorts. My hair was a tangled mess and the makeup I had tried to apply was smeared sloppily across my face in a mix of sweat and saliva.367Please respect copyright.PENANAimy5NMXost
367Please respect copyright.PENANAvCxkIibQRr
I groaned and tossed my hair up into a ponytail without brushing it before opening the door to find May waiting patiently.367Please respect copyright.PENANAp78bovJ1sN
367Please respect copyright.PENANAFPNmP60EOU
She looked me up and down, frowning. "What were you thinking?"367Please respect copyright.PENANAdRyin6GaDq
367Please respect copyright.PENANA14aH7vlTVi
"I just wanted to have some fun," I said and pushed past her grabbing the medication and water that had been left out. "Is it a crime to be a teenager, May?"367Please respect copyright.PENANAxybMvNxClX
367Please respect copyright.PENANAYteS1HxwuA
"Well, when you are under a contract-"367Please respect copyright.PENANAaXZQLSu35l
367Please respect copyright.PENANAESvNcavqcg
I cut her off, "Stop! Please. I'm so sick and tired of hearing about the contract and his rules."367Please respect copyright.PENANAKGZdhCF3k8
367Please respect copyright.PENANA2VfXFSXmR3
She glared at me, "Robbie, you knew what this entailed."367Please respect copyright.PENANABPRmRH0HbN
367Please respect copyright.PENANAfV07i2cRRn
"Yeah! Yeah!" I snorted and pulled some clean clothes out of the dresser. "Big, scary Kalon Wolfe out to kill everyone and control them like robots."367Please respect copyright.PENANAR4RFScKps0
367Please respect copyright.PENANAcF9Mh5UQTk
"Without that scary, controlling man you could've been killed last night." She snapped at me.367Please respect copyright.PENANAo667ahKgXN
367Please respect copyright.PENANA7BlsR2J1R5
I stared at her, "What do you mean?" I asked, confused.367Please respect copyright.PENANAJsmn3vprFt
367Please respect copyright.PENANAx2GOB4mDPe
"You don't remember?"367Please respect copyright.PENANAqez67f0QDj
367Please respect copyright.PENANA0BH1nmIbBb
I shook my head, "Not at all... I blacked out after we went on the dance floor."367Please respect copyright.PENANAV4Qszl7qmP
367Please respect copyright.PENANAsqFRPHGoF4
She laughed and sat on the edge of the bed. "You apparently got into an altercation with a very drunk man. Landon said he saw you try to run out a back door but instead, you ran right into Mr. Wolfe himself who was there to bring you home."367Please respect copyright.PENANAhQplakGdEi
367Please respect copyright.PENANAASqaDvTqWM
"He came there?" I asked slowly. I tried to recall last night's events and couldn't seem to really piece much together.367Please respect copyright.PENANA9wDmzXbcjZ
367Please respect copyright.PENANA8NHBULeDeF
She nodded, "Yes, he was absolutely furious. You're lucky he didn't decide on a worse punishment."367Please respect copyright.PENANAg8IUfKbp3b
367Please respect copyright.PENANA5tPbnlJ16G
"Punishment?" I scoffed.367Please respect copyright.PENANAOG46UcmvAB
367Please respect copyright.PENANAxaPRU185kY
Am I fucking five years old? 367Please respect copyright.PENANAWP7Fc0ZpZG
367Please respect copyright.PENANAfcnjAAo972
"You're not allowed to leave for a month," She said seriously. "Even with guards, he wants you to stay here."367Please respect copyright.PENANABKYHcfR7Al
367Please respect copyright.PENANACepssV0YF5
"I'm an adult! This is insane," I snapped and ran my hands angrily through my tangled hair. "What happened to Carlos and Landon?"367Please respect copyright.PENANAsFv8KrrvqR
367Please respect copyright.PENANAX5jf3NFK6W
Her eyes narrowed, "Carlos has been put on a very serious probation and Jax will handle his brother. They shouldn't have influenced you to-"367Please respect copyright.PENANAjbJ3bRfzcN
367Please respect copyright.PENANAX0wmNWXrRg
"Stop there!" I shook my head furiously. "Just because you all think I'm this fragile little girl doesn't mean I'm unable to make my own choices. I'm the one that convinced them to go and I'm the one that said yes to the drugs."367Please respect copyright.PENANAgSQsQUnKVL
367Please respect copyright.PENANADhIlKmMgeZ
"You could've been seriously hurt." She said sadly. Just hearing her disappointed tone was enough make my chest tighten.367Please respect copyright.PENANAXmCwLCDvIi
367Please respect copyright.PENANAYTmfIya9xG
"I'm sorry."367Please respect copyright.PENANAR8GSayy7Qf
367Please respect copyright.PENANAMEq8K1AMs3
She sighed and moved to pat my hand, "I forgive you, but you do need to meet with him today."367Please respect copyright.PENANAphXIL1NQD0
367Please respect copyright.PENANA9r1MEnORnx
"Who?" I asked, but already knew what the answer would be.367Please respect copyright.PENANAAITo2a7DGu
367Please respect copyright.PENANAACzAS7qqJk
"Mr. Wolfe has requested a meeting with you in one hour." She said and stood up from the bed. "I suggest wearing something clean and getting the vomit out of your hair."367Please respect copyright.PENANAxDFhjY5lx9
367Please respect copyright.PENANAfuqkSx2XGf
I frowned and sniffed my hair, "You're right."367Please respect copyright.PENANAlGDgRfNqV3
367Please respect copyright.PENANAERyhX8Ba1C
She shook her head at me and disappeared quickly from my room. I stood there silently for a moment trying to replay last night's events.367Please respect copyright.PENANAoQPnqxDDKd
367Please respect copyright.PENANAIuomQttBR9
Did I really meet Kalon Wolfe? Is that how I got home? What's he going to say during the meeting? 367Please respect copyright.PENANAeE9gV2o70s
367Please respect copyright.PENANAowSHCq1tXk
Just the thought of being face to face with the man who literally made 200-pound bodyguards quake hearing his name was certainly intimidating.367Please respect copyright.PENANAHV3yZ6Ovtr
367Please respect copyright.PENANAVhlux8BIdt
"Keep it together," I whispered to myself as I hurried to the bathroom.367Please respect copyright.PENANAyjgHAMPpX3
367Please respect copyright.PENANAXK4nfJKQOf
The heat of the shower did a good job clearing up my head fog, but I still couldn't recall enough from the club after the cocaine really did me in.367Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5t4hkqO3M
367Please respect copyright.PENANADQd1CkSo6R
I climbed out of the oversized glass shower and studied my features as I wiped the black makeup marks off of my face.367Please respect copyright.PENANA9pzPyScA3O
367Please respect copyright.PENANA1wzsiwRM80
My eyes were blood shot and I looked a little green-tinged. The definition of 'hot mess' certainly suited my morning look today.367Please respect copyright.PENANAXfCtMukhkS
367Please respect copyright.PENANAHJN7aSV7KK
I can only imagine how the boss had seen me last night. I'm just lucky he didn't decide to bury a bullet in my head after catching me in my bull shit.367Please respect copyright.PENANAcVGrzLYzII
367Please respect copyright.PENANAApvDDkK01j
I finished combing out the tangles and freshening myself up as much as I could. I decided on a simple white blouse, a black pencil skirt, and a pair of flats for my little meeting today.367Please respect copyright.PENANAoScRmVV7yr
367Please respect copyright.PENANAlV9ESAx9gN
I took a deep breath and turned to head out of the room just as Mr. Williams entered nearly running into me.367Please respect copyright.PENANA4VvUpXEJCA
367Please respect copyright.PENANA9hkccjGHGr
"Sorry, Ms. Quinn!" He chuckled and helped steady me. "I came to walk you to Mr. Wolfe's office."367Please respect copyright.PENANAGzSripsqgk
367Please respect copyright.PENANAwX9ipyyVZD
"Is it hard to find?" I laughed uneasily.367Please respect copyright.PENANA0bhjusCn8o
367Please respect copyright.PENANAvIG3OFleji
"These halls get confusing."367Please respect copyright.PENANAs7kM5QXJqL
367Please respect copyright.PENANAzNT4RfCctE
I nodded but didn't say anything else as he led the way down the stairs. Ever since I moved in I did my best to keep to one side of the estate.367Please respect copyright.PENANAytktXhjzx3
367Please respect copyright.PENANAJapa6wuZcn
There had even been weeks where I wouldn't see anyone aside from when I assisted May for meals. When she didn't need me, I'd usually hole myself up in my room and just think about Josh.367Please respect copyright.PENANA2izQUrrABa
367Please respect copyright.PENANA5VrFLvgXVP
I missed him so much. I thought about him every single day.367Please respect copyright.PENANAwe79Rqfn3h
367Please respect copyright.PENANA4YXms0EBDu
I'd do anything to trade places with him.367Please respect copyright.PENANAAxsmpIqOZ4
367Please respect copyright.PENANA4RMDjMbFO1
He deserved a long, happy life. He was a good person.367Please respect copyright.PENANAI6OHdOlOc9
367Please respect copyright.PENANA7fb4d4e9YF
I'm just...Robbie Quinn.367Please respect copyright.PENANAqdm3U0wpbE
367Please respect copyright.PENANAgUmJPq0wD6
A loser. A nobody.367Please respect copyright.PENANAayEhHsVwgF
367Please respect copyright.PENANA0lP2u4LTQl
"Alright, Ms. Quinn," Mr. Williams said as we approached an unfamiliar hallway. "Make sure you don't speak until he begins, stay professional, and ensure him there will be no repeat of last night."367Please respect copyright.PENANATX6v8FrOxc
367Please respect copyright.PENANAoj6aAvkZVM
I nodded my head slightly. The nausea was creeping back up my throat again.367Please respect copyright.PENANATHycGAMxah
367Please respect copyright.PENANAFT0K5Bj9J1
He smiled, "It'll be okay, I promise."367Please respect copyright.PENANAvDeLmSDMZf
367Please respect copyright.PENANAD1J7gzrsYo
I gave him the best smile I could muster up in response before he patted my shoulder and headed back down the hallway.367Please respect copyright.PENANANlUwK1KWAy
367Please respect copyright.PENANAXzhAKEugY0
I was alone.367Please respect copyright.PENANA96EdtECZO4
367Please respect copyright.PENANAAf42GbV8O3
Alone and standing in front of Kalon Wolfe's office door. His name neatly sprawled across it on a tiny, silver plaque.367Please respect copyright.PENANAV24ify0bMx
367Please respect copyright.PENANAXTkC5KzD6c
Fuck me. 367Please respect copyright.PENANAYCIGtcFmC4
367Please respect copyright.PENANAfRWcy4oUJq
I reached out and knocked lightly against the door. My heart was pounding so loudly I was almost he'd hear it immediately.367Please respect copyright.PENANAJbxTfRqB12
367Please respect copyright.PENANA1kqm62fGqI
Several moments passed before the door opened and I was greeted by a very unfamiliar face. A young female with pretty onyx curls and dark eyes smiled kindly at me.367Please respect copyright.PENANAgrOkhkIoMF
367Please respect copyright.PENANAkWbYAquW5M
"Roberta Quinn?"367Please respect copyright.PENANAQj4xfyMTal
367Please respect copyright.PENANArW1sgqyYsV
"U-uh. Y-yes?" I stammered like an idiot.367Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5mFxCoXCz
367Please respect copyright.PENANA9J94QMTvfE
She nodded and motioned for me to follow her into the office. Inside it was just as I imagined it would be for a young billionaire.367Please respect copyright.PENANAiKNsYRdJzd
367Please respect copyright.PENANANRVNsfNmxS
He had several stunning paintings hanging on each wall. Some of them portrayed what I only assumed was him laying among tigers. If he was as beautiful as the paintings depicted him, I was in for an interesting afternoon.367Please respect copyright.PENANAyJJZwyJ07F
367Please respect copyright.PENANATLe76D8ySj
"Mr. Wolfe will be with you shortly," The girl said and pulled out a chair. "Would you like anything to drink?"367Please respect copyright.PENANAFpIlbnnwt3
367Please respect copyright.PENANA4kymbrH4As
"Water...please?" I said quietly.367Please respect copyright.PENANA6KfbZNPrMw
367Please respect copyright.PENANA5dgZuclPnw
She laughed a little and quickly disappeared behind another door on the opposite side of the room.367Please respect copyright.PENANAATyqWDfOoH
367Please respect copyright.PENANAYmgMXcGy7W
I sat down in the oversized chair and admired the room. Everything looked to be so perfect and clean.367Please respect copyright.PENANAELSbGCJSlh
367Please respect copyright.PENANAWpia3p2fcD
He sure likes organization.367Please respect copyright.PENANAYV1UsVRIls
367Please respect copyright.PENANA9HAHzzcx5a
"Here you are."367Please respect copyright.PENANAVTZlOo6cZm
367Please respect copyright.PENANAsByd37s9xj
I gasped and nearly jumped out of my seat as the girl returned carrying a glass of ice water.367Please respect copyright.PENANAxSTFZVn0f0
367Please respect copyright.PENANA2V59Qdufg1
"I'm so sorry!"She apologized and sat it on a coaster. "I should've spoken up."367Please respect copyright.PENANAEvBUtzwJ5i
367Please respect copyright.PENANA9Rs35QjZok
I shook my head, "No, you're fine. I'm just jumpy today."367Please respect copyright.PENANAfwQewRzjxj
367Please respect copyright.PENANAyuNfcCyawl
"No, I r-"367Please respect copyright.PENANA2ICxLONJVc
367Please respect copyright.PENANAq1GSELLC0T
"That will be all, Ms. Ramirez," A voice stated from behind me. "Please leave."367Please respect copyright.PENANA3rA0VwDrEV
367Please respect copyright.PENANA90glf6qEux
She looked up at him nervously and mumbled several more small apologies before hurrying out of the room. If she had a tail, it definitely would've been tucked between her legs.367Please respect copyright.PENANAKsjKakdark
367Please respect copyright.PENANA56KYt4NUkK
"Ms. Robbie Quinn," He spoke casually as he moved. "Pleasure to meet you...sober."367Please respect copyright.PENANAFZ4KPaCILG
367Please respect copyright.PENANAA7Z2T96ApA
I tried to laugh a little in response but stopped as soon as he came into view.367Please respect copyright.PENANASMWKmxjz2d
367Please respect copyright.PENANAU7DRZQihIV
He was impossibly perfect. I have never seen a human so unbelievably sexy in my life.367Please respect copyright.PENANA0hAtc6gyWK
367Please respect copyright.PENANAFoIrzM8Zb2
His steel eyes rested lazily on me as he adjusted the edges of his shirt and raked his tattooed fingers through his dark hair.367Please respect copyright.PENANAcpisxvMDJn
367Please respect copyright.PENANAWDvOIUC5hK
I noticed several tattoos scattered across his neck and sides of his skull. Everything about him was so sculpted and put together.367Please respect copyright.PENANAS04ce5RKa0
367Please respect copyright.PENANAqjIjkpYcxG
This was a man of power.367Please respect copyright.PENANAkau2pSOgFW
367Please respect copyright.PENANA5KV5FMKqeV
"U-uh...yes, sir," I said awkwardly. "Nice to meet you."367Please respect copyright.PENANAjRS4fGGZwy
367Please respect copyright.PENANA1p0RFEDOXH
He nodded and sat down across from me, looking entirely too large and muscular for the tiny office chair.367Please respect copyright.PENANA19y9fssXB8
367Please respect copyright.PENANAXAiMLfydpS
"Let's chat Ms. Quinn," He said as he crossed his arms behind his head. I couldn't help but notice the ridges of his arms busting through his suit.367Please respect copyright.PENANAdQid3fps6Z
367Please respect copyright.PENANAoVD5pHLJHe
I nodded nervously, "Yes, sir."367Please respect copyright.PENANAL04tcLgVtm
367Please respect copyright.PENANAHH8cKoyIy6
"Last night..."He started and raised a brow. "Cocaine?"367Please respect copyright.PENANA3NimFlGUsX
367Please respect copyright.PENANA41KvNFOjwb
My face heated up. "Y-yes."367Please respect copyright.PENANAQVyfOpxb30
367Please respect copyright.PENANAJRwboOzTq6
"Carlos and Landon took you there."367Please respect copyright.PENANA11R3fvc4dG
367Please respect copyright.PENANAaznK2SEsBA
"It's not their fault," I said quickly. "Everything was my idea. I wasn't forced into anything...I kind of...forced them to go."367Please respect copyright.PENANAgljyJrF6HF
367Please respect copyright.PENANAVi26JYEaWm
He didn't acknowledge me. "I don't like my employees getting involved in things that could ruin my organization's image."367Please respect copyright.PENANAzIIoe4H8eS
367Please respect copyright.PENANAbWFWAE7VR9
"I'm sorry, sir, "I frowned and looked awkwardly at my shaking hands. "I'll take the full punishment."367Please respect copyright.PENANASG7kFhg43t
367Please respect copyright.PENANAU93x5oFBir
An uncomfortable silence fell between the two of us as my words weighed heavy. I couldn't seem to slow my breathing down and was beyond grateful when he finally cleared his throat.367Please respect copyright.PENANAoomtjDdASA
367Please respect copyright.PENANAkfeFxdap1P
"Very well then," He stated and pushed away from his chair. I watched in silence as he walked across his office and stared out of his window. " Starting Monday, I'd like you to take the assistant role I have open."367Please respect copyright.PENANAFVxfzGXbbd
367Please respect copyright.PENANAZDabcvdEwy
I stared blankly at his back. "I thought that gi-"367Please respect copyright.PENANAcRf57uewoh
367Please respect copyright.PENANAbE4I59D5Dw
He shook his head and turned to face me. My heart fluttering as soon as his eyes locked onto me. "I have several assistants, but I'd like you to take this role."367Please respect copyright.PENANAJO1VQW1ZJh
367Please respect copyright.PENANAhdNW601MI2
"Y-yes, sir."367Please respect copyright.PENANA90K0OzQgIC
367Please respect copyright.PENANAH3AHXauAgo
He sighed heavily and tilted his head as his eyes roamed over me. I felt my body heat up again from his intimidating gaze and instinctively crossed my arms tightly over my chest.367Please respect copyright.PENANAGIwe3056iy
367Please respect copyright.PENANAIZBlzJSBxx
Mr. Wolfe said nothing as he closed the distance between the two of us and placed his large hands around the arms of my chair. I held my breath as he leaned in closely, the scent of his intoxicating cologne washing over me like a wave.367Please respect copyright.PENANA7Miltzin18
367Please respect copyright.PENANAi7zFUHwuKe
"I look forward to it Ms. Quinn." He mused softly. His voice sending a million shivers down my spine. "See you Monday."367Please respect copyright.PENANA1zSHwPsXDz
367Please respect copyright.PENANA10c8OJEEPC
I did my best to force a robotic nod as he moved away in a blink of an eye leaving me breathing unsteady and trying to ignore the pit in my stomach.367Please respect copyright.PENANAR1OcekDDru
367Please respect copyright.PENANAsb6BTTXm0C
"Thank you, sir."367Please respect copyright.PENANAvSoQOfSv36
367Please respect copyright.PENANAg6a4O6Adse
I stood up from the chair and quickly exited the room with my eyes on the floor. As soon as I was on the other side of his office door I let my body slide to the floor as my chest heaved. My head was spiraling and I had absolutely no idea what that was.367Please respect copyright.PENANA19iB1fKrDw
367Please respect copyright.PENANATTd36iQf0z
What...the...fuck. 367Please respect copyright.PENANAfDpmUYaEew
