That week was a fucking nightmare with Naomi. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflSj9CVCaX
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClds7OQfUT
The blonde, bimbo monster bitch absolutely hated me and she wanted to make sure I didn't forget it.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuU3rRqePNp
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwuk4RVpT6
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKO4xx8qBG
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQrtAhypHN
I usually finished up by noon without any time to even piss, let alone fucking breathe!360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyII7gcO3q
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGKNvBcfO5
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFifCjQMFC
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRYtmByA2E
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSTyy3wtoJ
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYTisOdNwu
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh23doXX8p
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXekN4NxVD
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0HcfImoDw
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkWo2cPa6w
I can't lie, it made me extremely nervous. Just looking over Kalon's extravagant life really put things into perspective.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7OzuHleCr
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddutVExzLE
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGvMizCchs
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsLtY7a6nK
Who the fuck needs to buy four private jets in one month? 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAK0zrn0v59
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nw7Vauy0o
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBZDmAwhde
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSN3RwmLsX
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaPw5PbQvZ
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZntfgX6D5J
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0vPjzDGzI
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqTkfjmyd3
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VfCfkmz6C
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2RPW6ks0z
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRjLEAiZOo
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLSsechAPd
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zRLbi7XNx
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc8HeyOi23
I hated Naomi. I hated Kalon for this job. I hated this damn life.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml6x7jThIk
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlKzYYk9P9
Most of all... I fucking missed my brother. My parents.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn0v2tziTY
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT1aGzbUPt
I never pictured my life like this. I just wanted it to be normal again.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4oupinRC0
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1rwAYeZDd
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZrMq3XlEZ
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrczZGM4O8
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlcJvG360Z
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6gwS1g4Ky
Fucking asshole.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHInFjAFBbR
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZDqGbKFwf
"Let's go, Roberta!"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkXZOd5KQh
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm18uYzRyVx
I groaned loudly and slammed down my blush compact. It wasn't even time for Naomi to harass me yet.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCebQK9pQB
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeSnkyd7sw
"I haven't even had time to get your latte, Naomi," I snapped and ripped the door open.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xia3uQvuI
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLVvZbX5mw
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBLkazqNvA
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4af8qjO04I
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDGDwbsFri
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2hWjlCegF
"I am going to be gone today, but you are to report to the office to assist Axel."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSwKTgsyPH
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ25VYxALT
My brows furrowed. "Axel?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXSp4WpfNF
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5L1SoGekvB
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."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52L8IzUqj2
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9haQsHjOO
"Okay...so what am I doing today then?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwiGgZscAu
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5iNbCfrjG
She looked up at me, annoyed. "Just shut up and walk."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm54LVcmolt
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRKMnVWrB5
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXAOsFmPAg
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx9Bfx2NcR
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9ZdVl57Dg
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeSfUDhQGZ
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5Ceh6YdUg
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhX0dzGamNq
"Naomi! What's up my favorite blonde bitch?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfP3GQgy11
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWFtjS2nO5
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5r3B5FDhn
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR4jAq8HVl
"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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtT18ju2La
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaZtrHxJjr
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7SJ4fXZwu
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVm2wIqFVy
"Nice to meet you, sir," I said politely and approached him.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cKZeHH1SF
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGABMmY6cWg
He reached out and shook my hand. "Axel."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARUMd7qXIA
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbaioaEf9P
I nodded and met his mismatched eyes. One a brilliant blue color and the other nearly pitch black.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnVDavTnvs
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqILncxCmO
"The girls love it." He laughed.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonIClP8BpB
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfNzNhrSDF
I blinked. "What?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq3LqjZuw6
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jq2huzy7U
He smirked and pointed towards his eyes. "It makes me look mysterious."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2BjPQ50rN
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GDCmHcYYX
"Doesn't make up for you being a gigantic douche, "Naomi muttered. "Where's Ramirez, by the way?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfmlh3GFmO
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQpE0C5uGa
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbC9yaIf88
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXyHChzlIg
"Ma'am?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTZLgkc2uv
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2s0s0LfcKk
"Normal order, please. Get on it." Naomi barked out.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvqhexptzs
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aAV83VRoe
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd1PNmofrO
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmID88cODBK
"Oh, no!" I said instinctively and moved to fix them. 360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjp8TZgMMt7
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHeyChQla6
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4bXHFCwuH
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaZgE1Fz9m
His fingers slowly stroked the back of my hand as he turned it palm side up and trailed his nail along the lines there.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZcdev34Tp
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gpCobxOO2
"Beautiful hands."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM025AXqP2J
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7E4iUGOJF
"T-thank you?" I stammered and pulled away.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeYjPetlwH
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFqaq2X0bQ
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxL602yB2kY
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVb6FqpD4Sw
"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."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYPTefhwZE
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpqiyYl8uR
"Play nice," Axel scolded and looked at me apologetically. "You have somewhere better to be anyway."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVedbT6nFL
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmzEURApvx
"That I do," Naomi sighed and looked over at me with a snarky grin. "Good luck."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlktNwCbZGs
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3GSSjIPjk
Axel and I watched as the blonde demon exited the room, chatting away happily on her cellphone as she did.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YEhw0XOVD
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmON6ikJjoy
He shook his head and smiled, "Sorry, about Naomi, I wish Kalon would hire women who aren't secret succubi."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTe9G5uGpCo
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtejZ4uPPY
I shrugged, "I guess it's all part of the job."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT85n8syQrb
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFkoSkNq36
"I suppose," He grinned crookedly. "Would you like a drink?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFvQmnGnuk
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6mEE4wgps
"Am I suppose to be drinking?" I chuckled awkwardly. "I kind of got myself into trouble with your cousin on that one."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9wM3Mc0Jj
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLS97e8LXh
"Ahh, you are the party girl?" He teased and fetched a bottle of champagne. "Kalon sure was pissed about that."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RE72f9Ixl
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaGI2G2ORR
My cheeks flushed. "He told you?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHyzyzMmWQ
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbitioo1Bs
Axel nodded as he poured the glasses, "He didn't shut up about it for about a week. Caused some trouble between the brothers."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvtHwhsoUA
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokeoDGuMbh
"And Carlos?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN95eazYkYE
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO8m90AAcm
"Yeah...Carlos." His lips tightened as he said it.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2Tb4ithui
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6h80kT1jr
"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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFBfSMRsID
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicAAu5iO5x
"Terminated." He said simply and handed me my glass.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡht94LdWvBD
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr5c7dPnMW
"Really? I thought this was a forever thing?" I asked and took a sip.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn57SGdf1eh
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndSvjd4h9Q
"Depends on the situation," He sighed and trailed his fingertip along the edge. "You ask a lot of questions."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡram5wR6TGx
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q5PWMxD3m
"Curious, I guess."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6UoJnKs6S
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajt3SIpPlr
"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."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKd3vAnVOe
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJNgTEDAF7
"Oh, I'll surprise you."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84HiOQRf84
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTuBFGArTa
He smirked. "I don't doubt that, Ms. Quinn."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGD3O2vxYE
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ034D0VdEpu
I met his unique eyes again and felt my cheeks heat up like wildfire. "U-uh, so what are we doing today, sir?"360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUJB3uUXhI
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppJjnY0VUC
He shook his head. "Axel is fine."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88C0nlShg2
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwoUkAQYZ5
"Sorry...sir, I mean Axel!" I stuttered.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACREs4L1Oh
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0yXXNIwDb
He just laughed and tossed me a stack of folders. "Have at it, princess."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mEDVCztzy
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr69x4kAAv
"Just this?" I said as I flipped through it. Naomi usually dumped enough paperwork on me to last half of my day.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx6P899Kg8
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuqhC17t40
"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."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhh365BEI3
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTR5FCCpCrO
"With Naomi, there are no breaks or days off," I said lowly. "I'm completely fine working the full day."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5glGKrzhKY
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9VKu77NvD
"Don't worry about it, I got your back." He reassured and stuck his pinky out. "I promise."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RTKkawGkz
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1RGsihD0F
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A4Yj7v6oG
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNadyoYJsdv
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.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kd5EtXgJb
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL5dXq3ArR
"I like you," Axel said lowly and ran his fingers over mine. "You are different."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEXgfvVRuw
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8Y79fVJRI
"T-thank you." I stammered, my heart racing now.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1Hao1ZUzx
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXTULOHOAy
He chuckled and licked his lower lip. "I'd like to take you to dinner."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAmyIDBbya
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwcwTM7iUW
My breath caught. "U-uh...I'm...I'm not sure... uh."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2rlafntln
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSp7EVdlre
"Just think about it," He said and used his free hand to grab a pen. "Call me when you do."360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlivLlXyBNG
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDVaZJPNYN
I watched in silence as he scrabbled his phone number on my palm, his intense gaze never leaving mine as he did.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJPT2Ho5Nm
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXMI8TPYaH
"Oh...ok..." I started out, unsure of what to say.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpczn1r6bkW
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7LWrBnijr
"Get to work, Ms. Quinn." He said playfully and pushed off the desk.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSwnYTILD2
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvVqEbQLhr
I sat there in complete disbelief as the folders in my hands felt like they were now hundreds of pounds.360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SZMSZY0K5
360Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCs1DaAt4L
