That week was a fucking nightmare with Naomi. 403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2M2N0dLmCY
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdCIeeCpbS
The blonde, bimbo monster bitch absolutely hated me and she wanted to make sure I didn't forget it.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzf284YX3m
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1Ase7zary
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JaTVjTNNc
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKg7DtGQ1c
I usually finished up by noon without any time to even piss, let alone fucking breathe!403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEQ6GGYgUN
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM0cRNcc8t
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZOQryXhJr
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCT73FXrEV
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHXXgNEawR
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvyOY0IfPH
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZF9kYfdPT
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzufHZqeyCv
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuSZM6DsGi
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDI7w4k1U1
I can't lie, it made me extremely nervous. Just looking over Kalon's extravagant life really put things into perspective.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEQkqkAiXq
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWhDnL1aVc
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwoF5wSEjr
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OH2AHrPqi
Who the fuck needs to buy four private jets in one month? 403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyByzUccnYT
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCTlf63JO3
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhkNwYDyEt
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcisc5m2DR
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IsyMZBhN4
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfef28tGrqk
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMESUUIL7ML
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPy0u51qKV
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzby0a5HNJj
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrPibFGYoS
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhc1qEBKly
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzSwbDC5nA
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8rjP0Q2eF
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlieylcbdn
I hated Naomi. I hated Kalon for this job. I hated this damn life.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeARe4QTYz
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbFWl2kMxK
Most of all... I fucking missed my brother. My parents.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPILcQCoWup
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOESp4vdqad
I never pictured my life like this. I just wanted it to be normal again.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KOgI6OaBM
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkG87dLJRF
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1owCWSpRi
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRNkcISGIk
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUq4kf2a3C
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRtSYPLlQo
Fucking asshole.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTjObnWL2F
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJTX1FU9vT
"Let's go, Roberta!"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEzczaUejk
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZgoAG2kqX
I groaned loudly and slammed down my blush compact. It wasn't even time for Naomi to harass me yet.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEFmxuI2FI
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGHKL5rnOj
"I haven't even had time to get your latte, Naomi," I snapped and ripped the door open.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLHv2lKLJt
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnK5PvUKGN
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYM6h7bpND
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzTYFFCLla
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9ktsQzmuF
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT7j3otvvt
"I am going to be gone today, but you are to report to the office to assist Axel."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheVrIHvQEm
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifRwF9EliR
My brows furrowed. "Axel?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKrwYcmyXe
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfZu47Swj9
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."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeLSzyUUJt
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwB4MBlwpAW
"Okay...so what am I doing today then?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j9YstviY2
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwP1ULV3fX
She looked up at me, annoyed. "Just shut up and walk."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy2rlQNDKR
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ld1IemGG8
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdhBxKrK91
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCJTnFAG9Q
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHjIMO88zi
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNMVjiYUsO
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGKQp1gvlP
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW9jWwjGuL
"Naomi! What's up my favorite blonde bitch?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5DIDspXCk
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9N0HuJU6J
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMis1ZROzX
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWo463K7wCY
"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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQdtEdJKPa
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzSwUXaTcy
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFjA2I1SGE
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eiTBzwyg2
"Nice to meet you, sir," I said politely and approached him.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5baqBePl6h
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwNMgF3jcf
He reached out and shook my hand. "Axel."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbKWODMZy2
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLAHZR97l7
I nodded and met his mismatched eyes. One a brilliant blue color and the other nearly pitch black.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQIZmwBKMz
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3AjelyQ7a
"The girls love it." He laughed.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvmUGd60Uw
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsESPa9X9Z
I blinked. "What?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60URqy3JpU
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiD7rlNN8b
He smirked and pointed towards his eyes. "It makes me look mysterious."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvyXFrI2oj
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0TSVITpZT
"Doesn't make up for you being a gigantic douche, "Naomi muttered. "Where's Ramirez, by the way?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23BNeZZuWU
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFp0zNDveK
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaA4ZReZnk
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RwZf8ZQHW
"Ma'am?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXeV9p4phr
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM04gTHpLYA
"Normal order, please. Get on it." Naomi barked out.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡembNQLrymG
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYp0XVid1AL
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalfDryaWOE
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KxWaR1qgv
"Oh, no!" I said instinctively and moved to fix them. 403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuiHuZmOJE
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtd0QvsVq6
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBxpuLOsto
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9epao3ebk
His fingers slowly stroked the back of my hand as he turned it palm side up and trailed his nail along the lines there.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjPRe5NbZy
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUhtEYLUys
"Beautiful hands."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLf46BsNpY
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSaZDH1qYE
"T-thank you?" I stammered and pulled away.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUPGrSZqgU
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXwR0qIMwx
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhQN7CMFg7
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzGCOL3Qcm
"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."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIhwm6W6qQ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ034joMpodp
"Play nice," Axel scolded and looked at me apologetically. "You have somewhere better to be anyway."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmegH7U99Q
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaNArImgRg
"That I do," Naomi sighed and looked over at me with a snarky grin. "Good luck."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjzYmk2u0e
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0YJc0PbNI
Axel and I watched as the blonde demon exited the room, chatting away happily on her cellphone as she did.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoj7yUg1Kf
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxlyQrQIfh
He shook his head and smiled, "Sorry, about Naomi, I wish Kalon would hire women who aren't secret succubi."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUUd1T4fqx
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAlauaJihm
I shrugged, "I guess it's all part of the job."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UTLoVmfje
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVpa9jRlsV
"I suppose," He grinned crookedly. "Would you like a drink?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqNaxLI1P9
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTXGw7fLTA
"Am I suppose to be drinking?" I chuckled awkwardly. "I kind of got myself into trouble with your cousin on that one."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLd3uY4xReQ
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxOsUivDA8
"Ahh, you are the party girl?" He teased and fetched a bottle of champagne. "Kalon sure was pissed about that."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciwCbK5AGe
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lmSiYWWjv
My cheeks flushed. "He told you?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDHnwH2Wzm
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0kqywlQSJ
Axel nodded as he poured the glasses, "He didn't shut up about it for about a week. Caused some trouble between the brothers."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTOIqczV8B
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdp2foFsRg
"And Carlos?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2hNWf7Gk6
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2El5ueSn2O
"Yeah...Carlos." His lips tightened as he said it.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIEclgb4zs
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYzi8LLYHY
"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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQA8TyEA9o
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspXu6LAjUe
"Terminated." He said simply and handed me my glass.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5M5wXQtaE
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLkY3uXLzN
"Really? I thought this was a forever thing?" I asked and took a sip.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCWx5pht3G
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuU76n6EjV
"Depends on the situation," He sighed and trailed his fingertip along the edge. "You ask a lot of questions."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTdRpyPgIq
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNGNPvsWnS
"Curious, I guess."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3d8nQLgjM
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXmKHutrFO
"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."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWtPSCNX2H
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHZozVrJqw
"Oh, I'll surprise you."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjhREdiB4J
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMRLX46mfY
He smirked. "I don't doubt that, Ms. Quinn."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJh9SX6Xwz
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJ2SZP9AeZ
I met his unique eyes again and felt my cheeks heat up like wildfire. "U-uh, so what are we doing today, sir?"403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnpn2aHgi3
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTGWtYlgnO
He shook his head. "Axel is fine."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtgSnwgkBz
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdlTnzwXJg
"Sorry...sir, I mean Axel!" I stuttered.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ApP0m5sdt
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRNlXGxkO1
He just laughed and tossed me a stack of folders. "Have at it, princess."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfGVI96GCB
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVkN4qqPH1
"Just this?" I said as I flipped through it. Naomi usually dumped enough paperwork on me to last half of my day.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemFS1ALqq6
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdmCXwMQ0O
"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."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCXjHCMhjM
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrrExAZl0D
"With Naomi, there are no breaks or days off," I said lowly. "I'm completely fine working the full day."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuY7tenPmo
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtG7hRgB7pk
"Don't worry about it, I got your back." He reassured and stuck his pinky out. "I promise."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQwc9A4S9S
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFf2Qjhjdw
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiczusLZ49Q
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQsiwWeUoo
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.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5ed0P2Iom
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyzuFjnx46
"I like you," Axel said lowly and ran his fingers over mine. "You are different."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpDSiDybAR
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwP9XMcFLsK
"T-thank you." I stammered, my heart racing now.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk7tD3WG5B
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWD954B2m3e
He chuckled and licked his lower lip. "I'd like to take you to dinner."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaY4sLXDnb
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSin6hU9AmY
My breath caught. "U-uh...I'm...I'm not sure... uh."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgE9mnKIfbO
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHg18nwg2Q
"Just think about it," He said and used his free hand to grab a pen. "Call me when you do."403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooOsOdWzAp
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2i2cVlM56I
I watched in silence as he scrabbled his phone number on my palm, his intense gaze never leaving mine as he did.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBLp9OOJ53
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugn45p8Doo
"Oh...ok..." I started out, unsure of what to say.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwYTFEx8yc
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8F2bwjwKGV
"Get to work, Ms. Quinn." He said playfully and pushed off the desk.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEenkSrtWwW
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlhmYvq2n0
I sat there in complete disbelief as the folders in my hands felt like they were now hundreds of pounds.403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJV4yJP0qt
