Kade POV

I don’t know what I expected from Evelyn Mowers, but it certainly was not this. Not only was she gorgeous, which was emphasized by her outfit that fit her curves just right, her last question threw me off guard. It was a bold question, but I couldn’t help but admire her confidence that came through as she spoke.

I by no means thought I was a good man. You couldn’t be when you were the Don of the Italian Mafia. I killed those who wronged me or my family. However, I lived by a specific code, that my father and grandfather refused to live by. Following this code of ethics, allowed me to avoid unnecessary casualties and kept me from law enforcement's radar.

After my father died from a heart attack over a year ago, I was forced to take on his empire along with his reputation as The Reaper. One could not get this name without being considered a monster. Although the reputation did keep my enemies in line, it also meant I acquired relationships like Anthony Ricci, that I did not w

    Evelyn POV:The Hive was not at all what I thought it would be nor were the team members what I envisioned. With RSS prestige reputation, I figured I would be walking into a stuffy, black tie, office with everything in pristine order. Instead I was pleasantly surprised by a welcoming room with people dressed casually.A short curvy blonde named Lennie was the first to say hello. Her face was priceless when she was caught with a piece of pizza hanging from her mouth. Once seated, Lennie overviewed the purpose of the Hive. A tall, skinny male with shaggy brown hair and brown eyes stared at me with a blank expression as he sat across from me. His faded band t-shirt and jeans looked wrinkled as if he hadn't had any sleep in days. If I had to guess, that was Jax. Next to him was a tall red head, a woman with delicate features. She was naturally beautiful which was accentuated with a dusting of freckles along her cheeks and the bridge of her nose. She had a beaming smile and green eyes t

    EVELYN POVAs I pulled up to Domino's Gym, I noticed the familiar vehicles of my team. I was surprised they all beat me when usually I was the first one to show up for meetings. I walked into the main entry of the gym and was greeted by our regular clients. Buddha was in the weight room spotting Arrow on the bench press. As soon as Buddha noticed me, a wide grin filled his face. It was their queue that it was time for the meeting.The conference room was located on the far side of the gym, hidden by a set of double doors that read “employees only.” I placed my hand on the scanner so it could read my handprint. It was a security measure that ensured that no patron would access the area. The scanner beeped and allowed me access through the doors. The bare hallway illuminated as I walked down the hallway that led to the conference room. The conference room was large with a huge oak table sat in the middle. On the back wall lined artillery and tech gear. Adjacent hung a large screen to

    Evelyn POV As I entered the skyscraper of RSS, I was greeted by the friendly face of Lennie. She handed me my badge and guided me through security. One of the security officers chuckled when he saw the contents of my bag. Snoozie slippers, marshmallows, a massive yeti filled with coffee, and a framed picture of me and Alfredo.My face heated. I couldn’t help that I needed certain things in order to function and if I wanted to make this look real I needed to personalize my office space. “Welcome Ms. Mowers. I hope you enjoy your marshmallows.” The officer greeted me. Lennie looked confused until she saw my bag. “You’ll fit in just fine. Don’t worry.” Lennie said, giving my arm a little squeeze. As we entered the Hive, I was greeted by Gwen and Ollie. Jax barely spared a glance my way and continued to tap away on his keyboard. As I got settled, I booted up my work computer and put in my credentials. That’s when I noticed my task list along with the rest of the team. Annoyed as I r

    Kade POV“Who ratted on Ricci’s shipment? I won’t ask you again.” I rested my hands on the two armrests that our current captive was tied to. We had been at this for over 2 hours. We needed to find out if Ricci was the one messing with our shipments now that one of his had been hit. But first we needed to know who attacked Ricci. “I swear man, I have no idea. I’m just a transporter for him. No one tells me anything.” The gaunt faced man cried. His little beady eyes filled with tears. I sighed and scrubbed a hand down my face. I squeezed Machine’s shoulder for him to take over. An evil grin took over Evan’s face. The guy had too many loose screws in his head. But that was why I also needed him. He was notorious for getting information. Twirling a knife in his hand he stalked towards the bloody man in the chair. “We are going to play a little game. It’s called I am going to cut things off until you talk. Don’t worry I’ll make sure that you stay alive until you do.” Machine crouched

    Evelyn POVI walked into RSS Friday morning to complete chaos. Servers were down, phones weren’t working and staff were racing around the building trying to figure out what was going on. I rushed to the Hive where Jax was already seated typing frantically. “What’s going on?” I asked, quickly logging into items I could. When Jax didn’t respond, I repeated myself. “Jax, what the fuck is going on? You can resume whatever beef you have with me after we fix whatever is happening.” He ran a hand through his hair. My voice snapping me out of what he was working on. “A virus was planted into the server. I can’t find where the bug came from but it’s attacking the entire database.”Fuck this was wasn’t good. I couldn’t help but wonder if the glitches I found were connected to this. “Have you tried calling Mr. Romano?” “Yeah but he’s not picking up, and his secretary said he won’t be in until later this morning. The one day that he doesn’t come in early, Armageddon decides to happen.” The

    Kade POV The one day that I did not come to the office early, was the one day that almost cost me the entire company. I paid Ricci a visit this morning to give him a gift. The ears of the transporter that Machine cut off last night. The conversation from there, was less than productive. Once I reached the office I was bombarded with questions, calls, texts, and emails. I was so angry to find out that Evelyn went against an order; however I couldn't help but admire her dedication. She clearly cared about others and their personal information. I knew I was harsh with her and Lennie. I made sure to send Lennie a text letting her know that her favorite donuts from her favorite bakery would be delivered to her this afternoon.I didn’t know enough about Evelyn. Except that she drank more coffee than a human should, she has a cute cat, and wore silly slipper socks.I needed to find out more about her and I knew just the place. —-Evan was all too eager to go to Domino’s with me.

    Evelyn POVThe universe was against me for whatever reason. It didn’t matter that Kaden Romano was the sexiest man I’d ever seen . His ego was enough to dampen his sex appeal. And now, he was in my sanctuary. Bursting my Kade-free zone bubble. Kade stood behind me getting into the first position. The first objective was to get out of a chokehold from behind. Badger demonstrated the moves with Machine who was visibly getting frustrated by each take down. “Ready?” Kade whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine. The smell of his cologne overstimulated my senses. “Yes” the word sounded sharper than I had intended. Focus Evelyn. This isn’t the first hot guy you’ve trained with! His arm wrapped around my throat pulling me flush to him. He wasn’t squeezing hard which annoyed me even more. “If you’re going to train with me, don’t baby me.” I titled my head to look up at him. Any closer and our lips could touch. “As you wish, princess.” He tightened his grip, cutting off my airw

    Kade POVMachine and I limped out of Domino’s gym with me sporting a few bruises and Machine with a bruised tailbone.“Fuck man, I think Badger broke my ass bone.” He rubbed his lower back, trying to ease the pain. I couldn’t hold back my laugh. “Quit your bitchin’, you did this to yourself by antagonizing her.” I clapped a hand on his shoulder. “Maybe you will think before you speak next time.”Machine groaned as he got into the driver’s side of his Durango while I got into the passenger side. –My sleep consisted of dreams of Evelyn in various positions, similar to the ones we did at the defense class. However with less clothes, less talking, and more moans. As much as I tried to stay focused on my intercepted artillery, my mind seemed to wander back to Evelyn’s panicked face when I had my hands on her throat. I was grateful that she was able to work through her panic with me. It was an olive branch I didn’t deserve after the way I treated her in the office. A knock sounded at m

    We slowly got into a routine with our newly formed family. Everything felt like it was slowly moving into place. Except for the radio silence, my sister had all of us on edge. We knew something was brewing. It was just a matter of time. For now, we would continue our lives as normal as we could. I had become an official partner for RSS and was working on liquidating all of Ricci Enterprise with the help of the Hive and my R-Team. The new headquarters and gym would be opening in a couple more weeks which had Buddha, Badger, Bodhi, and Chief extremely busy. I had helped name one particular wing that was designated for our training, specifically the mock missions training. The wing was named “Eye of Arrow” with a looped arrow symbol next to it to signify overcoming obstacles and solutions. Ever since our beautiful baby girl had been born, there seemed to be something going on between Badger and Machine. Both of them would look at the other longingly when the other wasn’t looking. Kade

    I looked at the mother of my beautiful, healthy baby girl. She was asleep on the hospital bed, looking at peace. After a gruesome labor of 28 hours, the woman deserved the rest. She had been such a trooper through the entire thing. Proving that my woman had bigger balls than most men I knew. A knock sounded on the wooden door before Buddha peaked his head in. I narrowed my brows. “How did you get past security?” I asked him slightly. Buddha gave me a broad smile. “I look like security. Didn’t take much. Told them I was meeting my boss to take up a post outside Evelyn’s room.” I rolled my eyes fully understanding why the young receptionist would believe that to be true. He walked into the room with a bouquet made out of balloons and marshmallows. My phone vibrated with a message. When I looked at the screen it was a text from Buddha in the newly made group chat. Buddha 🧘🧘: I have made it to where the target is. Chief 🇺🇸: excellent! Let us know when we can visit. I will be in

    8 Months LaterKade POV “Babe, we are going to be late!” I called out to Evelyn as I looked in the hallway mirror as I straightened my tie. Today was the grand opening of my new club, Oasis that was once called Olympus and owned by Ricci. Machine and I had worked hard making the space into an elegant yet erotic atmosphere. With a color palette of Deep Red and black with accents of crystal, we were able to achieve our goal. Never would this club be home to sex trafficking ever again. Tonight we would be showing our hard work off to our loved ones and the new elite members of the club. “Coming!” Evelyn yelled out from our bedroom. I heard her breathing heavily as she walked down the hall. She held her impressive baby bump as she walked. She looked breathtaking in a black satin floor-length gown that was tailored perfectly to her curves. Her hair was down and soft waves, which were calling me to run my hands through them. Evelyn was officially living with me in the penthouse after pu

    Kade POV Evelyn began to rock her hips over my hardening length as we devoured each other. My hands roamed from her breasts, her back, and then to her delectable ass. I let out a groan as I squeezed both ass cheeks in my hands. I removed my lips from hers and began to leave open-mouthed kisses down her jaw to her throat before standing up while continuing to hold Evelyn in my arms. She squealed at the sudden movement and locked her legs around me koala-style. She ran her hands through my hair as she nipped and sucked my neck and earlobe. I could feel the heat of her core on my waist as I walked closer to the bedroom. I could feel my cock dripping already with precum. I needed to be inside her. I kicked the door behind me and placed my girl on the bed before tearing off my and her clothes in record time. I tried to slow down, but the caveman in me had a primal need that had to be fulfilled. Evelyn spread open her legs giving me the perfect view of her wet pink pussy. I yanked on he

    Kade POVEVELYN 💕Amore mio: Are you home?I did a double take at my phone and questioned whether I was losing my goddamn mind. Sure as shit, Evelyn had texted me for the first time since our last intimate night together. I had just walked into my penthouse when I had received the text and had to sit down on one of the kitchen island stools to make sure I was reading her question correctly. I quickly snapped out of my shock and responded.ME: Yes, you ok?The typing bubble popped up on the phone before disappearing before reappearing again.EVELYN 💕 Amore mio: Can I come over? I need to talk to you.My heart began to pound in my chest. Play it cool, man. Don’t scare her off by coming on too strong. ME: Of course. You are always welcome here, Princess. I walked into my ensuite bathroom to make sure I looked presentable enough. I had been working from home and at the club we had just bought for the past couple of days and felt no desire to get put on a suit. I had a feeling though

    Evelyn POVAlfredo weaved through my legs as I heaved my breakfast into the toilet. “For fucksake!” I grumbled. I rinsed out my mouth and sent Badger a text, asking for her to bring me some soup and saltines. She called me seconds later, talking a mile a minute.“Do you think it’s the flu?” Badger asked over the phone. We were on number five of questions to determine why I was sick.I rested my head on the back rest of the sofa and placed my cellphone on my chest with Badger on speaker. “No. I don’t have a fever or anything.” I had no energy today. In fact, I progressively had been feeling run down for the past week. Badger went silent on the other end of the phone, making me look at the screen to make sure she was still on the line. “Jess?” “Yeah I’m here. I need to ask you something but promise not to freak out?” I rolled my eyes. “We both know you are going to ask regardless.” I laughed at my joke. “That’s beside the point.” “Badge, just ask! Sheesh!” “Are you pregnant?”I s

    Evelyn POVAll but Kade left my apartment. Matt apologized to Kade but also let him know that he knew about Kade’s skeletons in his closet before leaving the apartment. Kade sat on the sofa with Alfredo curled up in his arms. Seeing them together made me want to snap a picture but thought better of it. He was the one that pushed me away. “You know you are going to leave here covered in fur right?” Kade looked up at me as he continued to scratch behind one of Alfredo’s ears. “I missed this guy.” He looked back down at his furry friend. This statement took me by surprise before anger set in. “Kade, I need you to leave.”Kade looked back up at me, surprise in his expression. “What?”“You heard me.” I held the tears back that were threatening to spill from my eyes. Kade stood up with Alfredo in his arms who meowed in protest at the movement. “Evelyn,” He whispered. I extended my arms in a silent instruction for him to hand over my cat. “Don’t make this harder than it has to be Kade.

    Evelyn POV“You’re lucky I’m not pressing any legal action on your ass!” Kade screamed in Matt’s face. Matt stood up and shoved Kade away from him.“Back off ‘Ghost;” He emphasized with air quotes. “I did what I had to.” Buddha clapped both his hands down on Matt’s shoulders and pushed him back down into the dining chair. “We are here to talk, Master Sergeant. No need to get physical.” Buddha stated in a calm voice. I glanced at Chief with a weary expression. This could get out of hand quickly. Matt sighed. “I needed to have Anthony’s files in a vulnerable state so I could access them.” What the fuck?“Why go through all this trouble when you could have asked him?” Machine asked as he took a sip of his beer. Matt scrubbed a hand down his face before looking at me. “You weren’t the only one who observed from the shadows, Evelyn.” My heart sank into my stomach as I remembered vividly how my mother screamed and sobbed when she found out my dad was killed. “Explain.” Chief stated w

    EVELYN POV“I’ll be there as well.” Kade said with finality in his voice. “Wai-wait…N–” I stammered before getting cut off by Kade. His eyes told me not to argue with him. “What time Evelyn? This is a matter of RSS.” His voice was void of emotion. I nodded my head once with understanding. “6:30.” Kade looked back to the rest of the people in the room. “Continue.” He didn’t need to elaborate. Ollie was the next person to speak up as she took the remote from Lennie. “In this frame you can see Matthew take the thumb drive out and replace it with a plastic device that looked like a plug in for a wireless keyboard. This is the device that was meant to store data that he was looking for. From there the damage was done.” We knew the rest of the story and how I was able to fix it. I just hoped that Kade didn’t think I had anything to do with my brother’s actions. —-I went home early today not feeling well physically and mentally.
