The next morning was fucking hell.334Please respect copyright.PENANA4321yle2gh
334Please respect copyright.PENANA08sKpKtIFB
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANA5t0nXe8qNC
334Please respect copyright.PENANAEx0Ejf9uiQ
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANA5EFOWgJ6VG
334Please respect copyright.PENANAifCpuRGp71
I can't believe I actually did cocaine last night. What the fuck was I thinking?334Please respect copyright.PENANAb2x16TD5Yy
334Please respect copyright.PENANANFP5ntmZv5
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAbPBLJS7b0i
334Please respect copyright.PENANAXly8NGhE9x
What was considered normal for me now?334Please respect copyright.PENANACakosmF8EF
334Please respect copyright.PENANAebqysJ42Yw
I have no family, I think I deserve one free pass to do something stupid.334Please respect copyright.PENANAvFSrcR5lIV
334Please respect copyright.PENANANZS5iEC0AY
"Hey, Robbie! Are you okay in there?"334Please respect copyright.PENANAC1FA9KGxty
334Please respect copyright.PENANAKtLAHwwbyU
I lifted my head weakly as May's voice came from the other side of the bathroom door. "Yes, one second."334Please respect copyright.PENANA2RPqJaBEL2
334Please respect copyright.PENANAk6IhszdWLI
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAN8g0OaNubp
334Please respect copyright.PENANANAwsryLBI1
I caught sight of my appearance and nearly died by how disgusting I looked. 334Please respect copyright.PENANAWghewXLsij
334Please respect copyright.PENANAOEZLpWf1ec
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAdwKocblgfO
334Please respect copyright.PENANAmdcGMZBNu4
I groaned and tossed my hair up into a ponytail without brushing it before opening the door to find May waiting patiently.334Please respect copyright.PENANApUxqTlQYe1
334Please respect copyright.PENANAeZnNrxSRnb
She looked me up and down, frowning. "What were you thinking?"334Please respect copyright.PENANAV0RZC4ZeKp
334Please respect copyright.PENANAochuW2fSFf
"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?"334Please respect copyright.PENANAZUp3MibpwB
334Please respect copyright.PENANAlcT5c2kWgz
"Well, when you are under a contract-"334Please respect copyright.PENANASr09SwTj1O
334Please respect copyright.PENANAbSVAiKi3C3
I cut her off, "Stop! Please. I'm so sick and tired of hearing about the contract and his rules."334Please respect copyright.PENANAKQCahZw5lW
334Please respect copyright.PENANAwpMgBCQGP9
She glared at me, "Robbie, you knew what this entailed."334Please respect copyright.PENANA0l4w7Wtdqc
334Please respect copyright.PENANAjogQKebR3r
"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."334Please respect copyright.PENANA9DyvprmmiA
334Please respect copyright.PENANAhohQ7wKPqq
"Without that scary, controlling man you could've been killed last night." She snapped at me.334Please respect copyright.PENANAXj1v11nZSg
334Please respect copyright.PENANAM9YrA3PIos
I stared at her, "What do you mean?" I asked, confused.334Please respect copyright.PENANAeELNkgzi4o
334Please respect copyright.PENANA5HZYdV2bOd
"You don't remember?"334Please respect copyright.PENANAHLJAl9RqDZ
334Please respect copyright.PENANAOXvIgUry56
I shook my head, "Not at all... I blacked out after we went on the dance floor."334Please respect copyright.PENANAnojrKApEBb
334Please respect copyright.PENANAlBhej6i1JT
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."334Please respect copyright.PENANAi2NEHUv5xH
334Please respect copyright.PENANAp0ysjdRab9
"He came there?" I asked slowly. I tried to recall last night's events and couldn't seem to really piece much together.334Please respect copyright.PENANAAzTraZUCXM
334Please respect copyright.PENANAcNZJAP3MSJ
She nodded, "Yes, he was absolutely furious. You're lucky he didn't decide on a worse punishment."334Please respect copyright.PENANAcyMspiogtM
334Please respect copyright.PENANA2Grb4qyLCb
"Punishment?" I scoffed.334Please respect copyright.PENANAjoiq02Tsfo
334Please respect copyright.PENANAy4jH7iZnm6
Am I fucking five years old? 334Please respect copyright.PENANA5He501Ii7n
334Please respect copyright.PENANAYdvhv6s6On
"You're not allowed to leave for a month," She said seriously. "Even with guards, he wants you to stay here."334Please respect copyright.PENANAdsIZjfWdaS
334Please respect copyright.PENANA2B7cZ4aT6e
"I'm an adult! This is insane," I snapped and ran my hands angrily through my tangled hair. "What happened to Carlos and Landon?"334Please respect copyright.PENANAfzMT0PEZJ9
334Please respect copyright.PENANAm3Xp9Ubh7F
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-"334Please respect copyright.PENANAewT5Pe2kkK
334Please respect copyright.PENANAvkgg6xceCr
"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."334Please respect copyright.PENANA48lofZBnBA
334Please respect copyright.PENANAzmEBHIm6HL
"You could've been seriously hurt." She said sadly. Just hearing her disappointed tone was enough make my chest tighten.334Please respect copyright.PENANA5BC8o2mD75
334Please respect copyright.PENANA0aUiULuRFp
"I'm sorry."334Please respect copyright.PENANA8sqg7wNQ6u
334Please respect copyright.PENANAUYhW9tNopX
She sighed and moved to pat my hand, "I forgive you, but you do need to meet with him today."334Please respect copyright.PENANAgMCJggez6l
334Please respect copyright.PENANAwM8qqmKTtY
"Who?" I asked, but already knew what the answer would be.334Please respect copyright.PENANARv9gjdJ8qo
334Please respect copyright.PENANAJ56sAoKh26
"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."334Please respect copyright.PENANA85VCoX42DQ
334Please respect copyright.PENANAH5cewqUB4V
I frowned and sniffed my hair, "You're right."334Please respect copyright.PENANAGocjOnJ401
334Please respect copyright.PENANAzetBSVMRTt
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAhIgqkxNmO2
334Please respect copyright.PENANA9nvJT8HClZ
Did I really meet Kalon Wolfe? Is that how I got home? What's he going to say during the meeting? 334Please respect copyright.PENANAzmsAytuMoj
334Please respect copyright.PENANAshHWdwIs3X
Just the thought of being face to face with the man who literally made 200-pound bodyguards quake hearing his name was certainly intimidating.334Please respect copyright.PENANAPmb6FuDXyR
334Please respect copyright.PENANAeHk6sS4UHs
"Keep it together," I whispered to myself as I hurried to the bathroom.334Please respect copyright.PENANAe2aQtrfFaV
334Please respect copyright.PENANAsobCEZpFUW
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANA6MBoNnpeCh
334Please respect copyright.PENANAxiQBqBwAGc
I climbed out of the oversized glass shower and studied my features as I wiped the black makeup marks off of my face.334Please respect copyright.PENANAnqKPcMs7kJ
334Please respect copyright.PENANAjwfiitShEG
My eyes were blood shot and I looked a little green-tinged. The definition of 'hot mess' certainly suited my morning look today.334Please respect copyright.PENANAV58lt8tutf
334Please respect copyright.PENANAg7JH94yD6k
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAd1tEkEv6mX
334Please respect copyright.PENANAhsdYkif71E
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAMrYFuZ1F6y
334Please respect copyright.PENANAxc6AcTRUP6
I took a deep breath and turned to head out of the room just as Mr. Williams entered nearly running into me.334Please respect copyright.PENANARtnFf5HYei
334Please respect copyright.PENANAENHq13ILeH
"Sorry, Ms. Quinn!" He chuckled and helped steady me. "I came to walk you to Mr. Wolfe's office."334Please respect copyright.PENANAxvCBJYBXMz
334Please respect copyright.PENANA7XvM1Zcv0b
"Is it hard to find?" I laughed uneasily.334Please respect copyright.PENANASqg911mKuL
334Please respect copyright.PENANA2tn2gNIUZc
"These halls get confusing."334Please respect copyright.PENANATiPvoGiuCO
334Please respect copyright.PENANAYPn6BltJDE
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANADyERkA4dON
334Please respect copyright.PENANAQtLhQHEqSv
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANArv0c3CqShg
334Please respect copyright.PENANAlLISzwM1Jw
I missed him so much. I thought about him every single day.334Please respect copyright.PENANARUpfJYiv5v
334Please respect copyright.PENANAi8COhisoTf
I'd do anything to trade places with him.334Please respect copyright.PENANAxGNCsCvmfQ
334Please respect copyright.PENANA7UD09AQrqa
He deserved a long, happy life. He was a good person.334Please respect copyright.PENANAeN9AU777zg
334Please respect copyright.PENANAUCBetJvr3M
I'm just...Robbie Quinn.334Please respect copyright.PENANAqiByesfqSB
334Please respect copyright.PENANALymD0VogPV
A loser. A nobody.334Please respect copyright.PENANAiUkkLaVXRr
334Please respect copyright.PENANAwSlFaRn5aU
"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."334Please respect copyright.PENANAsjVVc14YJv
334Please respect copyright.PENANANjMwU1v5up
I nodded my head slightly. The nausea was creeping back up my throat again.334Please respect copyright.PENANAPvxcTbLTTd
334Please respect copyright.PENANA526kCyVvBK
He smiled, "It'll be okay, I promise."334Please respect copyright.PENANAFgOEpy1Q7J
334Please respect copyright.PENANAaZaGxnWQE3
I gave him the best smile I could muster up in response before he patted my shoulder and headed back down the hallway.334Please respect copyright.PENANAo7RYd3T2u8
334Please respect copyright.PENANAN7qwB36bcC
I was alone.334Please respect copyright.PENANACq752UTigP
334Please respect copyright.PENANA37nQLEtZbo
Alone and standing in front of Kalon Wolfe's office door. His name neatly sprawled across it on a tiny, silver plaque.334Please respect copyright.PENANA5wq8LpRn32
334Please respect copyright.PENANASdCZF7VRPr
Fuck me. 334Please respect copyright.PENANAjgVzNRBnCK
334Please respect copyright.PENANA9RtQlOiogY
I reached out and knocked lightly against the door. My heart was pounding so loudly I was almost he'd hear it immediately.334Please respect copyright.PENANAPaC3AeVHzQ
334Please respect copyright.PENANAwhPHo36PGB
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANA2w3CEGakBS
334Please respect copyright.PENANAUVKAdO3ZGH
"Roberta Quinn?"334Please respect copyright.PENANAexfaFoDOj1
334Please respect copyright.PENANA9LAREipBgW
"U-uh. Y-yes?" I stammered like an idiot.334Please respect copyright.PENANAsGqJcnzx6T
334Please respect copyright.PENANAt7fD5N9aLH
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANA1Cwm5u7w80
334Please respect copyright.PENANA3kDYOylETR
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANApPYb8koasR
334Please respect copyright.PENANA0b3AbFOIE0
"Mr. Wolfe will be with you shortly," The girl said and pulled out a chair. "Would you like anything to drink?"334Please respect copyright.PENANAAliUn0B7qz
334Please respect copyright.PENANAjEGF7xhdu8
"Water...please?" I said quietly.334Please respect copyright.PENANA0Q1xTTMQxt
334Please respect copyright.PENANAKob2xHhFnX
She laughed a little and quickly disappeared behind another door on the opposite side of the room.334Please respect copyright.PENANA9JR1u6bcH7
334Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8ClEBZSvS
I sat down in the oversized chair and admired the room. Everything looked to be so perfect and clean.334Please respect copyright.PENANAVUvKDzwvVa
334Please respect copyright.PENANAZObWiqI3vh
He sure likes organization.334Please respect copyright.PENANAOc6l4i9BXw
334Please respect copyright.PENANAvErdP4PjMV
"Here you are."334Please respect copyright.PENANAl4J9cZQoh8
334Please respect copyright.PENANAvZNcrCNvkI
I gasped and nearly jumped out of my seat as the girl returned carrying a glass of ice water.334Please respect copyright.PENANAoPwmgxAwG9
334Please respect copyright.PENANAfPKwtn45ir
"I'm so sorry!"She apologized and sat it on a coaster. "I should've spoken up."334Please respect copyright.PENANA6Ak0wHC9FA
334Please respect copyright.PENANAoaOjUkTuQN
I shook my head, "No, you're fine. I'm just jumpy today."334Please respect copyright.PENANA583PThDNI4
334Please respect copyright.PENANAkRhRpCi6mM
"No, I r-"334Please respect copyright.PENANAdwzKaIFXcW
334Please respect copyright.PENANA0jVeW7VS3e
"That will be all, Ms. Ramirez," A voice stated from behind me. "Please leave."334Please respect copyright.PENANA0Foug3c50t
334Please respect copyright.PENANAb9wfgUv5Br
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAJpPHCGP0Br
334Please respect copyright.PENANAntQLX4xxYF
"Ms. Robbie Quinn," He spoke casually as he moved. "Pleasure to meet you...sober."334Please respect copyright.PENANAljTsvfwdSB
334Please respect copyright.PENANAFcmnXl95ty
I tried to laugh a little in response but stopped as soon as he came into view.334Please respect copyright.PENANAUCgTDTUwaI
334Please respect copyright.PENANAWkSN469pBh
He was impossibly perfect. I have never seen a human so unbelievably sexy in my life.334Please respect copyright.PENANAysVrBOMxlo
334Please respect copyright.PENANA1DMOID63aq
His steel eyes rested lazily on me as he adjusted the edges of his shirt and raked his tattooed fingers through his dark hair.334Please respect copyright.PENANAuctsfVEZ1o
334Please respect copyright.PENANArRCQEGzNQs
I noticed several tattoos scattered across his neck and sides of his skull. Everything about him was so sculpted and put together.334Please respect copyright.PENANAf7PpLLyb9W
334Please respect copyright.PENANAcF1VnGFXug
This was a man of power.334Please respect copyright.PENANAbfR6LJEwr8
334Please respect copyright.PENANABMztSIsTtU
"U-uh...yes, sir," I said awkwardly. "Nice to meet you."334Please respect copyright.PENANA5SxH0QztYC
334Please respect copyright.PENANA1FJWk6K2rI
He nodded and sat down across from me, looking entirely too large and muscular for the tiny office chair.334Please respect copyright.PENANAwHgjAywqER
334Please respect copyright.PENANA4wzMD16DrN
"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.334Please respect copyright.PENANA61bIo6KG9z
334Please respect copyright.PENANAp3kbp5NuUx
I nodded nervously, "Yes, sir."334Please respect copyright.PENANArjGtiaqKxp
334Please respect copyright.PENANAkmi1uVrHre
"Last night..."He started and raised a brow. "Cocaine?"334Please respect copyright.PENANAZzR5Qb26iH
334Please respect copyright.PENANAhBqX8psTk9
My face heated up. "Y-yes."334Please respect copyright.PENANAdR4RW1x2gJ
334Please respect copyright.PENANA47qmgoiOiR
"Carlos and Landon took you there."334Please respect copyright.PENANA48ENaAIs1s
334Please respect copyright.PENANAwk0wO6zF7V
"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."334Please respect copyright.PENANAEXvZWS5RLG
334Please respect copyright.PENANAvCVTknQuLJ
He didn't acknowledge me. "I don't like my employees getting involved in things that could ruin my organization's image."334Please respect copyright.PENANAv48AowwSD1
334Please respect copyright.PENANAbYNvlyGGxl
"I'm sorry, sir, "I frowned and looked awkwardly at my shaking hands. "I'll take the full punishment."334Please respect copyright.PENANAjgNr3wogIf
334Please respect copyright.PENANA9HSLQtByvs
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAbrKOmFVACG
334Please respect copyright.PENANAx95SSPbrDc
"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."334Please respect copyright.PENANAhe6h9PRqBH
334Please respect copyright.PENANANqGKKI3wUw
I stared blankly at his back. "I thought that gi-"334Please respect copyright.PENANAsR2HsGGpKl
334Please respect copyright.PENANAMTwwSMikMu
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."334Please respect copyright.PENANASWSLV3lPXP
334Please respect copyright.PENANAKeXtTLP8HA
"Y-yes, sir."334Please respect copyright.PENANAM0vCuVxBzu
334Please respect copyright.PENANAjAmk7QDINv
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAZhbSC6f2Dd
334Please respect copyright.PENANARA8auqz1tu
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANAVCoCtNJAjk
334Please respect copyright.PENANAOsOPp5nJOq
"I look forward to it Ms. Quinn." He mused softly. His voice sending a million shivers down my spine. "See you Monday."334Please respect copyright.PENANAMwCmDFBPTu
334Please respect copyright.PENANA0akOm3lP9G
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANA1HfO4qrgNw
334Please respect copyright.PENANAHY1xZNt2A4
"Thank you, sir."334Please respect copyright.PENANAaO6oJ9u8Dw
334Please respect copyright.PENANAYhARO0BNur
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.334Please respect copyright.PENANA7JC1sp2W5W
334Please respect copyright.PENANA0pXmT8Ujnp
What...the...fuck. 334Please respect copyright.PENANAGCXdSi70IZ
