After I had left the office with Axel I was in a complete daze and so confused. I was grateful I had the rest of the day to really think about what had happened.382Please respect copyright.PENANAbedR0FWHye
382Please respect copyright.PENANAwAjEFz5anp
I stared at his number on my palm for what felt like forever. Moments of confidence would hit me and I'd pick up my cellphone like I was actually going to do something.382Please respect copyright.PENANA1FbX0K2rEA
382Please respect copyright.PENANADmHjUBmqoA
I ended my night laying flat on my back watching shitty tv with a bag of popcorn. His number still fresh on my palm as I laid there in my dismay over Axel's offer on dinner.382Please respect copyright.PENANAFyztMfikBj
382Please respect copyright.PENANA62FG0W65kL
He was handsome, funny, and kind. Who in their right mind would say no?382Please respect copyright.PENANAG8g8hjcHe6
382Please respect copyright.PENANAnZkVdzCyn3
Part of me wanted to say 'yes' to his offer right away but then there was that other part of me that kept playing my interaction with Kalon over and over.382Please respect copyright.PENANAeYrWoMq2WM
382Please respect copyright.PENANA2l6nsVMkv7
Him being so close to me that day, driving my heart up, his intoxicating scent washing over me like a wave.382Please respect copyright.PENANAxmeHdAoMKs
382Please respect copyright.PENANAG5mE50CYpB
As much as I wanted to hate Kalon for the situation I'm in, I couldn't seem to get him out of my mind. I knew a girl like me was nothing but a number to someone in his position.382Please respect copyright.PENANAHt1tuagHt2
382Please respect copyright.PENANAmadlE6IcE9
A man like that would never go for a girl like me. My entire life is a god damn joke and I basically look like I'm still fifteen years old.382Please respect copyright.PENANAVz8Qe43WAN
382Please respect copyright.PENANAmSTeeQvcFP
Kalon goes for girls like Naomi. Women who have amazing curves and big, fake breasts.382Please respect copyright.PENANA4pYS5oAmsx
382Please respect copyright.PENANAHRuYgHul29
Women who are absolute bitches to everyone around them.382Please respect copyright.PENANAShgvjP6Tlq
382Please respect copyright.PENANAqH0khEGM9K
I had hoped the right answer would come to me but it never did. I woke up that next morning with a stress headache and stumbled my way through my morning routine.382Please respect copyright.PENANAYk3OxoLSPI
382Please respect copyright.PENANAbctJ5CHSbj
Kalon was supposed to be back from his business trip this morning and despite my own mental torment, I was eager to prove my worth to him.382Please respect copyright.PENANAyewBiETDAF
382Please respect copyright.PENANADE9rcKRzSf
Once my shower was finished I stood completely naked in front of the steamy bathroom mirror and stared back at my own reflection.382Please respect copyright.PENANAadxXjXi7mZ
382Please respect copyright.PENANA2u2NiGaEk6
I looked the same but at the same time, I felt so different. 382Please respect copyright.PENANA11HcSRwSWn
382Please respect copyright.PENANA9iSvAZECti
My skin had a bit of a glow and was the clearest it had been in years. My cheeks were rosy and my hair full of volume and curls.382Please respect copyright.PENANAhJw3N0d3Lt
382Please respect copyright.PENANAHUilkvacLp
I felt like a woman standing exposed at that moment. I felt confident and proud.382Please respect copyright.PENANAZxzFRyF0n9
382Please respect copyright.PENANAg5Zg39OLSw
I felt like...like my mom.382Please respect copyright.PENANAFfmVuDDFsy
382Please respect copyright.PENANAWCl0JFhAYv
Tears hit me as the thought of her came over me. I never thought I would grow into my features so rapidly. The same features she was known for.382Please respect copyright.PENANAEpaRPh3pqu
382Please respect copyright.PENANAgSf2PWUEYS
I used to feel so complimented knowing how similar we were but now it was just so fucking painful.382Please respect copyright.PENANAAtWTpSPEhl
382Please respect copyright.PENANAQwDBQoO8BT
"Brush it off..." I whispered to myself and braced my hands on the counter.382Please respect copyright.PENANAu9FMk1CT7V
382Please respect copyright.PENANAvkIPCbVWPi
My body was on high alert and I could feel nausea starting to hit me from the nerves breaking out all over.382Please respect copyright.PENANAqZVZG1MTUB
382Please respect copyright.PENANAJZNlV2mUC0
Before I had time to dwell on my emotions for too long I turned my attention on my morning routine. 382Please respect copyright.PENANAidW76eFENM
382Please respect copyright.PENANAw7yPW2rUex
I decided today would be the day I took that extra step in really showing what kind of woman I am and how valuable I can be.382Please respect copyright.PENANAYe5nfDp2M9
382Please respect copyright.PENANAeO4ps7rhP7
I straightened my hair for the first time in years and even decided to add some stunning red lipstick with smokey shadow and mascara.382Please respect copyright.PENANAkrt4NtKbTy
382Please respect copyright.PENANAuVSERsYFwg
I swiped a bit of blush along with the sharpest points of my cheekbones and smiled back at myself.382Please respect copyright.PENANAp3vgMG0OCC
382Please respect copyright.PENANAeizbwAWnps
I looked good. Mature.382Please respect copyright.PENANADo9iHglvAc
382Please respect copyright.PENANAQLTOFMFbwx
I sat my makeup brushes down and slipped into my underwear and tight, black dress quickly. I knew Kalon would be in his office soon and didn't want to ruin today by being late.382Please respect copyright.PENANA14HQBCS73K
382Please respect copyright.PENANAKWQS7q6rqW
After slipping on my new heels that I was sure I'd break an ankle in, I hurried out of my room and down the hall. I could already feel my heart pounding loudly in my ears as I anxiously checked my cellphone time.382Please respect copyright.PENANAYvJn7JPo2f
382Please respect copyright.PENANAnLAoVgUBVz
Why the hell did he have to be on the opposite side of a house that is the equivalent of 5 single family homes?! 382Please respect copyright.PENANAHRSh8jTGR0
382Please respect copyright.PENANAyFH2EAmMNi
By the time his office came into view my vision was starting to blur from how out of breath I was. Hopefully, I wasn't already sweating my damn makeup off.382Please respect copyright.PENANAH4t1aYHevM
382Please respect copyright.PENANAwfO19aElNS
I reached out to knock against the door when I heard a sound come from the other side.382Please respect copyright.PENANAdBoUGYfctB
382Please respect copyright.PENANASwORsgWw5m
I pulled back a bit and listened closely for it to come again but after a few moments of nothing I decided it was probably safe to just enter before I really was late.382Please respect copyright.PENANA47I3nlWkMq
382Please respect copyright.PENANARbeY30Hmx9
I pushed open the door, smiling brightly as the office came into view.382Please respect copyright.PENANA2HanGw57u7
382Please respect copyright.PENANAamXxIxv0Po
I got an immediate display of Kalon's exposed chest covered in colorful tattoos as his hand griped furiously onto a blondes head.382Please respect copyright.PENANAjrkFMQ2F2N
382Please respect copyright.PENANAeQZOKqSbhd
He immediately saw me walk in and I felt my cheeks heat up as he continued to pump himself deeper and faster into the girls mouth as she gagged desperately for air.382Please respect copyright.PENANAw4UC4JXnGE
382Please respect copyright.PENANAwCFFsP7Knw
I opened my mouth to speak but stopped when he shook his head quickly and kept his focus on me. I could feel my insides spinning and an all too familiar warmth built up like wildfire between my legs as he fucked me with his eyes.382Please respect copyright.PENANAdhjqextyTk
382Please respect copyright.PENANAzgAu3JivXX
I couldn't take my eyes off of them. He was so incredible with how he performed.382Please respect copyright.PENANA0DqaP8oN6z
382Please respect copyright.PENANA78MjmO9ymd
His muscles rippling with each stroke as he pushed deeper into her throat, his breaths coming out heavy and fast.382Please respect copyright.PENANAWlJyEdrapz
382Please respect copyright.PENANA65zh6BC2qz
His steel eyes roamed over my body, hungrily. I suddenly pictured myself in her place instead. The desire to please him was overwhelming and unexpected as it hit me.382Please respect copyright.PENANAplGwWcfXew
382Please respect copyright.PENANAF5L71A202C
Kalon continued to breath deeply as he kept his eyes on me and bit his lower lip in need. I felt my palms drench with sweat as I braced myself against the doorframe and watched the show come to an end.382Please respect copyright.PENANAIcd0RGiPAq
382Please respect copyright.PENANAff2hSTGijl
His free hand steadied her head and he pushed himself into her fully as he released. His moans began to subside and the girl at his waist let out a small laugh before pushing back onto her knees.382Please respect copyright.PENANAeFWrhWAuTn
382Please respect copyright.PENANAaVkaGLc7RA
I quickly looked away to the floor as Kalon moved in my direction, exposing himself to me. I knew it was inappropriate to be watching this and certainly not professional in any way, but there was a bigger part of me building with desire to see every part of him.382Please respect copyright.PENANAobHevzFo6f
382Please respect copyright.PENANAjouBBynKLd
I wanted to admire his perfection, his strength.382Please respect copyright.PENANAfmYVsfLbkX
382Please respect copyright.PENANANjSKCu7qcQ
"Good morning, Miss Quinn."382Please respect copyright.PENANAA6kAKhhnTO
382Please respect copyright.PENANAg7bospcSDT
My heart seemed to skip a bit as Kalon addressed me still keeping his attention on his shirt as he finished buttoning it up.382Please respect copyright.PENANAQQ8T6bBykE
382Please respect copyright.PENANA10clov9GZo
The blonde gasped and spun around in a haste. As soon as she did, I realized that it had been the blonde she-devil that had been choking on his dick.382Please respect copyright.PENANAaZDwjDKYOK
382Please respect copyright.PENANARvGFKtYtnN
"Are you fucking serious?" Naomi screeched and covered up her exposed breasts.382Please respect copyright.PENANA0N3drYmzCx
382Please respect copyright.PENANAuMAdGRuxk3
"I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was interrupting something," I apologized and kept my gaze on the floor. "Do I need to come back?"382Please respect copyright.PENANAa3PnIdvJiL
382Please respect copyright.PENANACRK7FtZ9kb
I heard the office chair move and Kalon spoke up. "No need! Good morning, I'm excited to get you started."382Please respect copyright.PENANAbtFMvJ6gHw
382Please respect copyright.PENANANntudrCl0l
"Well, I'm out of here. Let me know what happens with the meetings," Naomi sighed and pushed past me, nearly pushing me over.382Please respect copyright.PENANAMakwNsZ9Dq
382Please respect copyright.PENANA4Gvr94XbkX
Kalon and I sat for a few moments in silence as the door slammed shut with her rage fueled exit.382Please respect copyright.PENANAfs4PVjm92h
382Please respect copyright.PENANAgLl8sL2JZd
I took a deep breath and looked back up at him. He had already been staring at me.382Please respect copyright.PENANAgu8CG73zOu
382Please respect copyright.PENANAZF1UcrxDv8
"I'm very sorry for interrupting the two of you. I didn't realize Naomi was your girlfriend, otherwise I -"382Please respect copyright.PENANAWis8g8uUSo
382Please respect copyright.PENANA0jHqSV0O9Z
Kalon put his hand up to stop me. "Please stop apologizing to me and Naomi is not my girlfriend."382Please respect copyright.PENANAdSKix5tmbS
382Please respect copyright.PENANA81TSPPPj4I
"Oh..."My nerves relaxed a bit, "I'm so-" I started out again but stopped when I saw his eyes narrow. "Understood, sir."382Please respect copyright.PENANA469KIGS78j
382Please respect copyright.PENANAzUvnyoogm4
He nodded and raised his arms up behind his head, the curves of his biceps showing through the fabric of his long sleeve shirt. "I'd like you to join me today, I need to attend a few meetings and I'm not the best on keeping myself organized."382Please respect copyright.PENANAI9bnEXSVhM
382Please respect copyright.PENANAF7gUALURUW
"Of course, that's why I'm here."382Please respect copyright.PENANAeRJs5CDXlV
382Please respect copyright.PENANAJMpkDzqxJv
His mouth curved into a crooked grin. "I'm sure you will do great."382Please respect copyright.PENANAfKkTT3xZzo
382Please respect copyright.PENANAbeN99u2q29
"T-thank you."382Please respect copyright.PENANAZdP8ZHrTM8
382Please respect copyright.PENANAqPQ0UpCN88
Kalon nodded briefly and pushed back his hair from his forehead. He looked down at several scattered papers on his desk and fingered through them.382Please respect copyright.PENANASL4g85DrdY
382Please respect copyright.PENANANGAVfTlKpg
"Very impressed with your categorization," He said as he continued to read. "Certainly made my morning a lot easier."382Please respect copyright.PENANAcomQM7wDzX
382Please respect copyright.PENANAE4pVLfJenk
"Thank you...and you're welcome," I smiled a bit at the compliment.382Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZxW20SooB
382Please respect copyright.PENANAV3s2XJ8Mmo
"Anyways, I am going to shower and change into something a little more suited for the day. I'll meet you at your room in about an hour." Kalon said and leaned back, his grey eyes roaming over me382Please respect copyright.PENANABvAx5BSgXd
382Please respect copyright.PENANAFME3eH9Glk
"Of course, sir. I'll see you soon." I responded quickly and hurried out of the room before another thought could cross my mind.382Please respect copyright.PENANA1mKNVkm2Pm
382Please respect copyright.PENANA8nDetCyH8g
As soon as the door shut, I leaned against it and tried to steady my breathing. My head was such a mess.382Please respect copyright.PENANAaeBbcOHEqu
382Please respect copyright.PENANAxq57EPRo7U
I didn't know what Kalon was doing...and what he was doing to me.382Please respect copyright.PENANAWpHYliF6be
382Please respect copyright.PENANAKOPWusAiMR
Something about him was so fucking addicting. It wasn't even the insanely good looks and power, it was just everything about him.382Please respect copyright.PENANAGsMGchBQ93
382Please respect copyright.PENANAsRuwLHDRTH
That next hour went way too fast. I sat on my bed the entire time just thinking about the entire scene that had played out.382Please respect copyright.PENANATPJA5JD2E9
382Please respect copyright.PENANA2L4Shzxcpe
Watching Naomi with him had me in a ball of emotions. I couldn't tell if I was jealous or just aroused by the idea of pleasing him.382Please respect copyright.PENANARArnYyDpWq
382Please respect copyright.PENANAgP5mxWseFL
It felt so wrong to even let that be a thought. He was my boss! He's the reason my life is miserable.382Please respect copyright.PENANADceVYrqDGh
382Please respect copyright.PENANAODgz4AfywX
Despite the mental torture I went through for that next hour when a knock sounded at my door, I quickly dashed across the room to find him standing there.382Please respect copyright.PENANAPH8vjOPYC0
382Please respect copyright.PENANA6yuRQGgqlM
As always, Kalon looked incredible. His hair was styled and swept away from his face, showing off the curves of his sharp cheekbones and grey eyes roaming over me again.382Please respect copyright.PENANAp24Mi7GTJk
382Please respect copyright.PENANAiVQsPjCaRf
"Let's go."382Please respect copyright.PENANANBAGIT5JOA
382Please respect copyright.PENANAKq30SkkES2
I nodded and tried to keep up with his long legs the best I could. You'd think he would take into consideration our drastic height difference, but as his assistant, it was my job to keep up with HIM instead.382Please respect copyright.PENANAB8gGDVALIr
382Please respect copyright.PENANACGlHpneQP7
As Kalon and I exited the front of the manor we were greeted by several of his men. I started walking towards the black Escalade but stopped when Kalon snatched me by the elbow.382Please respect copyright.PENANAGPyTdKKA8H
382Please respect copyright.PENANAO4NPcxbOk6
"What's wrong?"382Please respect copyright.PENANAjQ379iTIOW
382Please respect copyright.PENANAex2yK2cPt9
He shook his head, "I'm driving today."382Please respect copyright.PENANADI0K96AMkA
382Please respect copyright.PENANA6Uscxl0evV
I looked at him confused and a bit shocked that we weren't being escorted by the guards. Kalon was not known for taking his employees on joy rides in his own personal cars.382Please respect copyright.PENANAOIyoBRNJnh
382Please respect copyright.PENANANZgZQRoFYX
If business was involved, it was quick and discreet.382Please respect copyright.PENANAlti5Ai6To1
382Please respect copyright.PENANALRuBnOCmOJ
I kept up with him closely as we rounded the driveway to an open garage where several expensive cars sat. I tried to keep my composure and excitement contained as he stepped inside and waited.382Please respect copyright.PENANA3SEXk40zMR
382Please respect copyright.PENANAOZFg6885j0
"Something wrong?" I asked after several moments of awkward silence.382Please respect copyright.PENANAuT5mkb1LIx
382Please respect copyright.PENANAHrFRMhMSs6
He sighed and glanced at his watch. "Pick a car."382Please respect copyright.PENANA0LCSae596C
382Please respect copyright.PENANAYGrYbgRVYN
I tried to swallow the lump building in my throat and scanned the garage. The task of choosing his car for today was not what I had in mind.382Please respect copyright.PENANABTXrhqI2MM
382Please respect copyright.PENANAl2g6KVydYA
What if this was some weird kind of test.382Please respect copyright.PENANAvlswbgt3Ix
382Please respect copyright.PENANAHxjLfwV4RO
"That one."382Please respect copyright.PENANA6guVEeliQC
382Please respect copyright.PENANAkUwQ2Jupdu
His eyes followed my gaze and a bit of a smirk played on the corner of his mouth when he noticed I picked out the black Bugatti.382Please respect copyright.PENANAFlIYn9O95U
382Please respect copyright.PENANAS9GnGWYGyg
Without another word, the two of us climbed into the sleek vehicle and he brought the engine to life. A deep, low grumble filled the silence as he pulled out from the driveway and onto the road confined by the heavy trees that lined the estate.382Please respect copyright.PENANAAbrOGqzZMW
382Please respect copyright.PENANAnNc34ljjIt
I kept my gaze out the window as he drove through into the city. I couldn't help but clutch nervously at the hem of my dress as the road started to blur more and more.382Please respect copyright.PENANAiLqAKGt5qr
382Please respect copyright.PENANANscjJEQ8Gf
I'm sure Kalon was more than amused by my horrified expression at his need for speed, but I didn't dare give him that satisfaction.382Please respect copyright.PENANACELXZvbra4
382Please respect copyright.PENANA9HfZ2UvU5L
Thankfully, our drive came to an end after a short 20 minutes and the engine was turned off once more.382Please respect copyright.PENANAg22Kl7Xx05
382Please respect copyright.PENANAU3HZAy6Wz0
"You okay?" Kalon laughed softly.382Please respect copyright.PENANA1oJ35SKGeJ
382Please respect copyright.PENANAcLJs8oMxbU
I nodded, letting out a big breath. "You sure like to drive...fast."382Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0g7CtsNHu
382Please respect copyright.PENANANYBADauVaS
"When you have a car like this it's a waste of money to not speed."382Please respect copyright.PENANAdB8BuRGWMj
382Please respect copyright.PENANAz0AP3KMf55
I tried to force a laugh out in response but didn't entirely agree with his rich boy thinking. I met Kalon at the front of the car, cradling my belongings close to my chest as the front of the casino came into view.382Please respect copyright.PENANA4m10qn3H05
382Please respect copyright.PENANAFvCrjytfvZ
He slipped his sunglasses off his face and eyed the guards at the front of the door. "Keep quiet unless I address you. Stay close and take plenty of notes."382Please respect copyright.PENANAbkXRUVFhzP
382Please respect copyright.PENANABp7t1aqAWv
"Yes, sir."382Please respect copyright.PENANAj9Hhc6StR1
382Please respect copyright.PENANAh7awJp7pum
He glared down at me. "It's Kalon."382Please respect copyright.PENANAd703zEposj
382Please respect copyright.PENANAOVDL5hUXII
"Sorry, si- I mean Kalon." I blushed and he just shook his head as we entered through the front.382Please respect copyright.PENANAa2b7KeDRnA
382Please respect copyright.PENANA5dLatRULL0
"Mr. Wolfe! It's such a pleasure to see you."382Please respect copyright.PENANAI6MFMX7Rrd
382Please respect copyright.PENANArPOHpmBUGz
I peeped around his shoulder as an unfamiliar man with blonde hair and a nasty looking scar down the right side of his face came into view. In a way, he reminded me a lot of an older version of Jax.382Please respect copyright.PENANA5xBg5ADQNR
382Please respect copyright.PENANALAaOSjl3z6
"Erik, nice to see you."382Please respect copyright.PENANA3J5o0kV7L7
382Please respect copyright.PENANA4bLhPFEI84
"It's been a minute, man!" Erik cheered and tossed an arm around Kalon's shoulders. "Where the fuck have you been?"382Please respect copyright.PENANAlqq4hRLsnp
382Please respect copyright.PENANAT9rjt1HrzS
Kalon shrugged him off, "Business."382Please respect copyright.PENANA9v9YhMDdUH
382Please respect copyright.PENANAoynw5NLpF7
"Yeah, yeah. Always business with you! Axel shows his face around here more than you do, boss."382Please respect copyright.PENANA5kMAOITv74
382Please respect copyright.PENANAn2AdiqXrbd
Kalon didn't respond and Erik's eyes fell on me hiding behind him. "Woah, Woah! You weren't going to introduce us?" Erik gushed and put his hand out. "Nice to meet you, darling. The name is Erik Krueger."382Please respect copyright.PENANAvWw9XYD6l1
382Please respect copyright.PENANAUonacDOPwp
"Roberta Quinn."382Please respect copyright.PENANAQweNn6mcgp
382Please respect copyright.PENANAhwHtrtBvHj
Erik smiled unevenly. "Where has he been hiding you?"382Please respect copyright.PENANAvT6FpFuVSj
382Please respect copyright.PENANAePZBcFttCn
I chuckled, looking away nervously. "I'm just an assistant."382Please respect copyright.PENANAK2arkBkKB1
382Please respect copyright.PENANAK96v2Y6ODL
"She's trying to do her job, Erik. Stop making my employees uncomfortable." Kalon barked out harshly.382Please respect copyright.PENANALO2FJPmVaK
382Please respect copyright.PENANANSCmXM2nun
Erik rolled his eyes and stepped away, still keeping me in his view as he talked. "Just being kind to the lady."382Please respect copyright.PENANAswJ6xD8Tog
382Please respect copyright.PENANAN78nBWsW6u
Kalon ignored him. "Where's Vinny? This needs to get going."382Please respect copyright.PENANA5AAUllvOag
382Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4tjYh16i7
"VIP lounge."382Please respect copyright.PENANA67WksVGYly
382Please respect copyright.PENANA3Q0dCdZTJ4
Kalon nodded and looked back at me, "Come on."382Please respect copyright.PENANAGFJkRzoB8c
382Please respect copyright.PENANAfDd0rkXD2p
I kept on his heels closely as he led the way through the packed casino. Men in business suits swarmed past us, laughing loudly as they swung their beers around and blew their money at the tables surrounding us. It was lively and girls by the dozen moved around us with silver platters and flapper dresses.382Please respect copyright.PENANAhEecAji0mN
382Please respect copyright.PENANAnBIt0f5e3i
I certainly could see the charm about the place. Despite not fully understanding Kalon's motives, he seemed to be good at one thing for sure.382Please respect copyright.PENANAkBMxTHLrpZ
382Please respect copyright.PENANA0NOozQg1v1
Business and money.382Please respect copyright.PENANAL7LY885Yhw
382Please respect copyright.PENANA4ywd1uvLUN
The halls started to dim as we turned down a red velvet hallway towards a massive room showing VIP in big, gold letters lit up by lights. A man dressed in all black stood in front of a rope blocking the entrance.382Please respect copyright.PENANAg4fBfx14BK
382Please respect copyright.PENANAdxWqFvC9WQ
"Mr. Wolfe." He nodded and moved to the side.382Please respect copyright.PENANAJYMiggCOQw
382Please respect copyright.PENANA008MHWUS63
I tried to push my nerves down as the two of us entered the room together. Loud house music filled the room and there was a small stage in the middle of the room where a stripper was performing topless.382Please respect copyright.PENANA8e5fPgTTvC
382Please respect copyright.PENANAwMbMkmTGu2
The air was hot and full of marijuana and hookah smoke. I watched as Kalon motioned towards a group of men sitting at the back of the room with briefcases laid out on the table in front of them.382Please respect copyright.PENANA6bkh6cwIQD
382Please respect copyright.PENANAxtRzSiz6W4
"Mr. Santoro."382Please respect copyright.PENANAizxtwRwztn
382Please respect copyright.PENANAAZS2WBtuXJ
One of the older men at the table looked up towards Kalon. His cigar hanging loosely between his lips.382Please respect copyright.PENANADpU9p4cKKt
382Please respect copyright.PENANA4FhBNUC0Rw
"Kalon Wolfe," He chuckled and blew out smoke. "Nice to finally see you! I assumed Axel would've been filling in for you today."382Please respect copyright.PENANAJap7qVUUXw
382Please respect copyright.PENANAJcTcWL3wtW
"I got back into town early."382Please respect copyright.PENANALccpjV3pps
382Please respect copyright.PENANA2fDkVyKvh8
Kalon started to move towards the booth and looked back at me. "Sit behind us."382Please respect copyright.PENANA5OiNVQzmYv
382Please respect copyright.PENANA1rS79aRTmG
I nodded and eyed an empty seat at the table behind them and slid into it, keeping the conversation within earshot so I could take notes as he instructed.382Please respect copyright.PENANApPvM57VszG
382Please respect copyright.PENANAtFWEQt0LYI
The men broke out into some boring conversation about rich people things before finally getting into the real stuff. I listened as attentively as I could as they discussed percentages and cuts.382Please respect copyright.PENANAtSuRaHQ4fV
382Please respect copyright.PENANAklo5pca5ji
About an hour into the conversation, I could feel my hand going numb. I didn't know anything about this Santoro fellow, but from what I could tell it sounded like he was really wanting to screw Kalon over.382Please respect copyright.PENANAWh1p6sEnbq
382Please respect copyright.PENANAwL6hqms1vJ
"Hey, beautiful."382Please respect copyright.PENANA1bH5DOouF4
382Please respect copyright.PENANAMngCQbK15e
I put my pen down and looked up as Erik from earlier slid into the booth across from me.382Please respect copyright.PENANA7zWGA70lKs
382Please respect copyright.PENANAnutXJ2Qh2p
"Hey, sorry I'm trying to work."382Please respect copyright.PENANAQIcxqt3hNQ
382Please respect copyright.PENANAIrgBalKPER
He smirked. "Probably pretty boring listening to all of that business chat, huh?"382Please respect copyright.PENANAgqQKdq1SCw
382Please respect copyright.PENANAmApQlCJiTi
I nodded and tried to focus on the notes. "I guess so."382Please respect copyright.PENANADP4ZfCDFyB
382Please respect copyright.PENANA9rWIYmgDZ5
"I bet working for someone like Kalon Wolfe is pretty scary too."382Please respect copyright.PENANAaYZeK7ee7W
382Please respect copyright.PENANAcjYOKKYFxk
I looked up, confused. "What do you mean?"382Please respect copyright.PENANAB2OPjlFoYE
382Please respect copyright.PENANAKsC7scZy0v
He rolled his eyes and leaned closer. "You don't have to play it down. Everyone here is just as bad as he is."382Please respect copyright.PENANApqxgxFpjJo
382Please respect copyright.PENANAW5bHdLgg1O
"Bad?"382Please respect copyright.PENANAdPeYgHB6gl
382Please respect copyright.PENANAe3sexemRqL
"Bad," He mimicked and slid out a cigarette. "Want one?"382Please respect copyright.PENANAHfpqkDuD76
382Please respect copyright.PENANAUVZfqqFPbu
"No thanks," I shook my head. "And I actually don't really know a lot about the family. I know what I signed is unusual, but Mr. Wolfe tends to be pretty private."382Please respect copyright.PENANAdCrZur5cHQ
382Please respect copyright.PENANAO3SKSL1cft
"As he should, he doesn't need girls like you being involved."382Please respect copyright.PENANAc9eqM7Kmxt
382Please respect copyright.PENANAwwhxZmubG8
"Girls like me?" I laughed.382Please respect copyright.PENANABMhPPCir7l
382Please respect copyright.PENANABvtQ2Vk0ZQ
"Pretty and innocent," He winked. "I'm shocked he swapped out Naomi for you."382Please respect copyright.PENANADTHc2gJK4v
382Please respect copyright.PENANASbQfEN3WTG
"Ouch."382Please respect copyright.PENANAh71CIb9gqv
382Please respect copyright.PENANAUyFrnceZe2
He took a puff. "I don't mean it as a negative, cutie. Naomi is a fucking bitch, but a girl like her is definitely cut out for this business."382Please respect copyright.PENANABxpCbCGo7G
382Please respect copyright.PENANAItdYh3cdM4
"Well, why don't you enlighten me then," I smiled and leaned forward.382Please respect copyright.PENANAM9p5ABCdrt
382Please respect copyright.PENANAP9uRyM3NZN
He shook his head and blew smoke out towards me. "I don't think I should piss your boss off."382Please respect copyright.PENANA1OOXz4RNxY
382Please respect copyright.PENANAQjBHrmDjI1
"Why? Would he kill you?" I teased but honestly wanted to know.382Please respect copyright.PENANAagLCHPKAgq
382Please respect copyright.PENANAefKi9cJ9BQ
Erik started to lean towards me again to respond but stopped as someone approached us. His eyes darting behind me.382Please respect copyright.PENANAWgFuRHJJFm
382Please respect copyright.PENANAuFjGJQC0n9
"Let's go, Roberta."382Please respect copyright.PENANA12qD4FrJ65
382Please respect copyright.PENANASfvKEHEm35
I closed my notebook and looked up at Kalon. His eyes still on Erik. He looked super pissed off.382Please respect copyright.PENANA3W8ZSuG8NW
382Please respect copyright.PENANAB6uxnHnUyR
"See you around." Erik nodded at the two of us and moved out of the booth quickly.382Please respect copyright.PENANAWFcu84L468
382Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4ekxt6f6y
Kalon watched as he made his exit and looked down at me, his features stone cold. "What did he say to you?"382Please respect copyright.PENANA6yUAdyjYOO
382Please respect copyright.PENANAgQV9bFl3fw
"Nothing, really." I lied.382Please respect copyright.PENANAej8bMHJmpz
382Please respect copyright.PENANAHDl4mVoSDe
I didn't want Kalon to have any reason to hunt Erik down for something so little. I knew Kalon was not a typical billionaire, I wasn't that dumb. I just couldn't get anyone to really admit the full truth to me.382Please respect copyright.PENANAp6vMBzIZSV
382Please respect copyright.PENANAiR6CwtzDvt
"Don't lie to me, Roberta." He said sternly.382Please respect copyright.PENANADGLIdFjIZT
382Please respect copyright.PENANAkH04t8nbG1
My chest tightened. "I'm not, sir."382Please respect copyright.PENANAMICwEUg39N
382Please respect copyright.PENANAfTEAOYWVxT
He sighed, angrily. "It's Kalon, dammit."382Please respect copyright.PENANAzgdGwjwNbB
382Please respect copyright.PENANAeuTn5ayYSM
"I'm sorry."382Please respect copyright.PENANA9zyjXKoliO
382Please respect copyright.PENANAFWkJ9tTqK5
He pinched the bridge of his nose and motioned for me to walk ahead of him. "Just head out to the car, please."382Please respect copyright.PENANASSjyYGeXBY
382Please respect copyright.PENANAsxPaOLl8Bl
I nodded and made my way out of the room. The tightness in my chest seemed to only get worse and I felt like a fucking idiot. It was my first real day with him and I already was pissing him off.382Please respect copyright.PENANAcpBIwxVMx4
382Please respect copyright.PENANALAqCtxLgMo
I could feel his eyes burning into my back as we walked through the casino. I just knew he was going to report back to Naomi about what a failure I was at this. Maybe he would just off me and end my misery before it got worse.382Please respect copyright.PENANAzHrQNkBDz6
382Please respect copyright.PENANATF2WXII1ZB
The guard at the front of the casino nodded as the two of us started to make our exit towards his car. I really just wanted to go home and cry at this point.382Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4rKq2gMxD
382Please respect copyright.PENANA120HUCpZ4n
I don't know why I even cared about how he reacted to me. I barely knew anything about him and was nothing but a disposable employee to him.382Please respect copyright.PENANAU6BOKr4JHx
382Please respect copyright.PENANAek0SDY52Lg
I'm an idiot for even questioning my feelings towards him. He's my boss, that's it.382Please respect copyright.PENANAogVbJelWRh
382Please respect copyright.PENANAqpvmjdjZOX
"Wait."382Please respect copyright.PENANABY3vEOdSCa
382Please respect copyright.PENANAXtyVlWwrl7
I stopped in my tracks as Kalon pulled me back towards him by my waist. I felt the stiffness of his stomach against my back and looked up towards him, confused.382Please respect copyright.PENANAfeUBytnsBD
382Please respect copyright.PENANAsaRRXFdP6W
Before Kalon had time to even react gunfire begun to ring out around us, shattering the windows. I heard the people around us scream in horror as my body hit the building.382Please respect copyright.PENANAwl3VAgVsUa
