Charlotte’s POV
Warren chuckled as me as he wheeled me out of the gym and towards the kitchen. I could hear Daisy’s annoying voice, but right now I did not care.
“Bacon, bacon, bacon” I chanted as Warren pushed me to my spot at the table.
“I told you I would give you bacon as long as you walked both ways” Warren smiled at me as he filled a plate for me. As soon as it was in front of me, I started to dig in. I needed to eat before I had to deal with Daisy, so I chose to ignore her.
“A girl should not eat that much fat” Daisy tried to tell me, I groaned internally as I looked up at her.
“Good job I aren’t no lady then aye” I smiled as I shoved bacon into my mouth. No way was I letting the bitch get to me and ruin my breakfast.
“How did you go this morning” Jack asked walking away from Daisy and coming to sit next to me.
“Good I walked both ways, so

Jack’s POVDaisy was starting to get on my nerves, I think I would need to get Charlotte alone today and talk to her about firing Daisy. I went over and took my place next to Charlotte at the table. “How did you go this morning.”“Good I walked both ways, so now I get my bacon” She smiled up at me.“She was amazing” Warren sat down on the other side of Charlotte.“That’s my seat” Ryan grumbled as he sat down next to Lance.“I did not know we had designated spots now” Warren laughed.“We don’t but I sit next to Charlotte, I am her best friend” Ryan sulked.“And I am her trainer” Warren laughed.“Wow two handsome boys fighting over me, I feel so lucky” She fanned herself with her hand causing all of us to burst into laughter.“They obviously like their women damaged” Daisy huffed from the side.

Grant’s POVAfter everyone left the gym, I grabbed Warren and Lance “Who has the pictures of the women that Jack met?”Warren grinned at me as he handed me a flash drive “Make sure you find out everything you can about her.”“Oh, don’t worry, but the time I am done we will know her favourite colour” I laughed as I walked to my room. I sat behind my computer and inserted the flash drive. Warren had done a good job, I had about twenty clear shots of her from all different angles. He had even managed to follow her to her car and got her registration number for me. He really was making my job too easy. After only a few searches I had her name. I did some more digging and discovered her real reason for been at the warehouse the night Jack killed the rat, she was his sister. I was now certain that she was the same woman that contacted Phillip. She was not going to help us at all, she wanted to hurt Jack and knew that tak

Charlotte’s POVOnce I was dressed Jack wheeled me to the lounge. Warren and Lance were about to watch a movie by the looks of it.“Lance did not tell me it was that bad” Warren came over and started to check my head. “I will kill that bitch for leaving you all alone.”“You will have to get in line for that one” Jack growled behind me.“Get in line for what?” Ryan asked as he set a couple of bowls of popcorn down on the coffee table. He glanced over at me and saw my head. “What the hell happened to Charlotte’s head?”“Daisy left her alone to go try fuck Jack, while she was gone, Charlotte fell over and banged her head” Lance growled.“Where is the bitch now? I want to bang her fucking head up.”“Gone and I told her not to come back.” Jack lifted me out of my chair and placed me on the couch and handed me one of the bowls of popc

Phillip’s POVOnce I was done with my toy, I decided to let her recover for a little bit and went out. I went to the warehouse where Hannah would be meeting The King and found a spot to hide. I listened to their conversation impressed with Hannah’s acting. Even I might have believed her, while they were talking, I slipped away and put a tracker on their car. I knew that they would take it back to a garage. I only needed to know what garage, once I found that out, I could find the name used and see if they had any other properties owned under that name. Chances are that other property would be where they had my Charlotte. The meeting did not take long, and I watched as The King drove off with his men. I watched the tracker move on my phone, once it stopped and did not move again for over five minutes I zoomed in and started searching owner information on the building. Soon enough I had a name and the location of a mansion under the same name. I chuckled as I

Ryan’s POVI glared at Daisy as Jack brought her to the kitchen, I had no idea why Jack let her stay and help. Anyone could see that she treated Charlotte like crap. Suddenly I heard Charlotte coming down the hall chanting for bacon. I was now glad that I made extra this morning, I must have known she would want it. Warren pushed her to the table and instantly started to fill a plate up for her. It would have been a nice moment if Daisy did not open her bitchy mouth and insult Charlotte. I glared at Jack, but he did not notice. He was too busy sitting himself next to Charlotte.“How did you go this morning.” He asked.“Good I walked both ways, so now I get my bacon” She smiled.“She was amazing” Warren told him as the bastard sat down in my seat.“That’s my seat” I grumbled as I sat down next to Lance.“I did not know we had designated spots now” He laughed.&ldqu

Jack’s POVI don’t think that I focused on the movie at all, all I could think about was how perfect Charlotte felt in my arms. I didn’t want this to end, I wanted her to stay here with us forever, with me forever. When Grant called out to me, I wanted to tell him that what ever he had to tell me could wait. But I knew that was wrong, I needed to hear what he had to say. Hopefully what ever he had learnt would help us in ending this shit with Gavin and Phillip. So instead, I untangled myself from Charlotte and then watched her snuggle with Ryan instead. I knew that she did not think of him like that, but I still felt the wave of jealousy. We walked to my office and he once inside he updated me on everything that he had found. I was shocked that she was the sister of the rat and she somehow managed to get someone inside my office. The only bad thing about that was that my office staff was mainly women, it would be near impossible to find out who the rat

Grant’s POVI followed Jack back to the lounge.“I need to talk to the men alone for a few minutes, are you ok if I take you to your room and then come and get you after?” Jack asked Charlotte.“Of course, it’s your house” She smiled up at his as he lifted her up and placed her in her chair. I watched him as he wheeled her back to her room. I turned to notice that the others were all watching him as well.Jack returned and addressed the others. “Grant has found out a lot of information on the girl we met. It turns out that she is the sister of the rat that I killed. She also has a spy in our office.”“Shit, what are we going to do?” Ryan looked worried.“That’s what I need to talk to you all about. The only way that I can think to keep Charlotte safe, is to move her into my office.” Jack told them.“But you do some of your un-legit business in there&rd

Charlotte’s POV“I think I need to fill you in on exactly what we do.” Jack advised as soon as Ryan left.“You don’t have to tell me anything, I am fine been in the dark.”“The thing is I need to move you into my office to keep you safe, you are going to hear things.”“Just get some headphones for me to wear.”“What if I want to tell you?”“I am guessing whatever it is, is illegal since you have so many guns. All I need to know is that you don’t hurt women.”“I would never hurt or sell women, we deal in the supply and manufacture of drugs. Phillip works for my rival, a man who has been trying to take me down for years.”“That’s why you saved me.”“At the start yes”“And now?” I held my breath waiting for his reply.“Now I care about you and want to keep you sa
