Evelyn age 14:

Red and blue lights lit up the dark sky. As I sat behind the railing of our front porch, I watched as chaos consumed the front lawn. Chief Carmichael held my mother as she sobbed and screamed.

“Evie, what are you doing out here?” My older brother Matthew scolded as he headed up the front steps.

When I didn’t respond and continued to observe the scene in front of me, he sat on the top porch and looked at me.

“You are supposed to be inside with Sarah,”He reminded me. My little sister’s name took me out of the trance I was in. I took in the sight of my brother. He was 5 years older, but looked a lot older with his large bulky linebacker Frame. It was almost comical how he almost took up the entire width of the stair. His blue eyes were glassy like he was holding back tears. His short brown hair looked disheveled like he had been running his hands through it.

“She’s asleep.” I whispered. “I needed to see what was going on. No one is telling me anything.” I explained looking back at mom and the Chief. Matthew rubbed his hands down his face and looked at me.

Before he could say anything a black sleek Lexus flew in the driveway.

Matthew cursed under his breath. My eyebrows pinched together as I tried to figure out why my Uncle, Anthony Ricci, was here. He wasn’t a blood uncle, but he was my fathers best friend. He seemed to come from work since he was in a pristine bespoke black suit and tie. Nothing was out of place, he seemed calm and collected while the chaos continued.

He got out of the car and embraced my mother. I’d never seen him hold her like that. But what did I know? I was 14. “Evie…. Dad was in an accident.” Matthew met my eyes. I tilted my head in confusion.

“He’s going to be okay, though right?”

Matt looked down at his hands. When he looked up at me tears started to fall from his eyes. I’d only seen him cry once in my life when he broke his arm.

“No Evie, he won’t be coming home.” He paused, grabbing me and hugging me. “He was killed while on duty tonight. That’s why everyone is here. They are trying to figure out what happened.”

I didn’t know what to say as shock consumed me. I knew it was bad. There was always a risk when dad went out with his partner. As a detective for the New York City Police, violence and death was inevitable.

I closed my eyes as tears threatened to fall. I held onto my brother as we both mourned a loss i couldn't begin to fathom.

    One week before 18th birthday Shit shit shit. I heard the sirens coming in the distance. Quickly typing on the computer keyboard in front of me, I saved the items I needed on a flash drive. Stuffing it in my side pocket of my leather jacket and grabbed some plain pieces of paper from the large conference room to look like I forgot something . I zipped up the pocket as I ran out the back door where I knew security wasn’t.I busted out of my stepfather's office. The skyrise of Ricci Enterprises loomed over me like a beast, just like its owner. I booked it towards my car that was parked a few blocks away. The sirens drew nearer. The cold New York air attempted to steal my breath away by how intense the bite was. My yellow Volkswagen Bug stood out like a sore thumb, but she was my baby. Her name was Bug for short and was the most reliable thing in my life.I threw open the door and hopped inside. Quickly unzipping my pocket I shoved my hand in to grab the thumb drive and quickly stuf

    I went back to my room and flopped on my bed and groaned. The next morning as I pulled into work at Zacks Crab Shack, I was stopped by a tall man in a suit after blocking me with his black suv. I took a step back. I’d seen enough action movies to know this was a government vehicle. “Are you Evelyn Myers?” A deep velvety voice said. “Uh…yeah, that’s me.” I stammered. “Can I help you?” The man came closer to me and stuck out his hand, “I’m agent Derrick Fleming.”I tentatively shook his hand. Scars marred his hands. Although his demeanor was intense, his eyes were gentle. It was clear that he was military from the mere size of him. Tattoos peaked from underneath his suit jacket. His hair was cut short on the sides and longer on the top. Gray started to speckle throughout his brown hair. His features were hard, but his gentle eyes held my gaze as he continued. “I’d like to discuss a potential job opportunity.” I stood there awkwardly as he continued. “Unless you would like to go to

    2 Years Later…My fingers danced across my keyboard as I accessed the security cameras in the warehouse my team was raiding. Six computer screens took up my line of vision on one side of the undercover van I was in. As I accessed all of the cameras I led my team to our destination. This bust would bring us one step closer to completely infiltrate and destroy Ricci Enterprises and their extracurricular business arrangements, specifically in sex trafficking.“Shit it smells in here,” Badger complained through her headset. “Damn Buddha, what did we tell you about eating cheese before a raid!” Arrow added. “Guys, focus!” Chief, interjected. I giggled to myself at my team. Even in a dire situation, such as this, my team knew how to keep things amusing. “Phantom, how far out are we?” Chief asked me as they turned down another abandoned hallway. They called me Phantom, because of my ability to infiltrate the cyber world, while going unseen on the dark web. My hacking skills were known ar

    Pulling into the lot for my apartment building, I took a second once parked to take a couple deep breaths and rested my forehead against the steering wheel. We were so fucking close today. Before I allowed myself to spiral, I jumped out of my car and fast walked to the apartment building. The building wasn’t fancy by any means, but it was secure and inconspicuous. Opening my door, Alfredo, my cream colored cat sat patiently waiting for our daily ritual. I picked him up and held him like a baby. He purred instantly, alleviating some of the tension I held. I kissed his head and put him on my couch to then drape a blanket over him and the top of the sofa to make a little fort. It was his favorite and something we always did when I came home. Some might think I have some screws loose, I just call it being a great cat mom.My apartment was a simple garden style, with 2 bedrooms and one bathroom. Its open concept in the living and dining area made the space seem bigger than it really was

    Present DaySir Mr. Ricci is on line 2” Christine, my assistant, paged into my office. “Thank you Christine,” I replied, rolling my eyes. I had no desire to speak to the man, especially since he called a little over an hour ago, which I ignored. “Romano” I said, hitting the speaker button and leaning back in my office chair.“Care to share with me why it’s taking so fucking long for us to figure who planned the attack on my warehouse?” Ricci boomed through the phone. “Well good morning to you too” I grumbled, knowing how this conversation was going to go. “Oh don’t give me that bullshit Kade, we both know that the pleasantries are long gone. If your father was still alive..”Before he could finish, interrupted, “Well he’s not. So I will have to do. Unless you want to find another security firm that's willing to deal with all facets of your business.” My tone was cool and straight forward. I couldn’t stand the slimy scumbag, but my father had brought Ricci in as a client with a he

    Phantom, we need to talk about your next undercover assignment.” Chief motioned for me to take a seat across from him at his desk.“Tomorrow you will report to RSS (Romano security systems) as a candidate for their cyber security specialist position. “Ricci is a huge client of Romanos and is the best way for us to intercept information now that he’s covering his tracks even more because of the warehouse incident.”We went through my cover story as Evelyn Mower (my mother’s maiden last name). We kept everything as close to the truth as possible so when Romano pulled up my information there would be no way he could find discrepancies. Chief ended our conversation with, “Under no circumstances can Ricci identify you while you are at RSS. It will not only blow your cover but, potentially risk a full out war with the Mafia.” I nodded in understanding and walked out of his office.The next morning I opted out of my usual jeans, converse, and a tee shirt to corporate America's lady boss

    Kade POVI 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

    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.
