The Ganglord’s Girl 220: Special
I'm the happiest woman alive.I get out of bed and I'm practically skipping to the bathroom. Damien was in here earlier, I can smell his shower gel and his shampoo. His scent further elevates my mood. It's a gentle reminder of last night, which was absolutely perfect. I'm tingling all over at the memory of his lips on me, of his tongue in me.I can't stop staring at my ring. I don't think I'll ever get over this moment. Damien and I have been going steady for the past year, and I'll admit that I thought of marrying him once. I never mentioned it, I didn't want him to think I was putting pressure on him. This is a brand new beginning for us. We'll get married in a month–how crazy is that?—and then we can start our own little family. I've been on birth control for the past year, I didn't want to risk getting pregnant again. I wasn't ready emotionally. But after the wedding, I'll take the implant out. Again, it's a fresh start for both of us. Everything is stable now, so why not try agai

What's the point in keeping him alive?The motherfucker saw him at the party, talking to Amelia. It was so quick that he thought he was safe, but he should've known better.

The Ganglord’s Girl 222: Relief
I push that spot of blood on his cuff to the back of my mind.It's nothing. If it were, he would've explained himself. There's nothing off about him so there's nothing to worry about. I remind myself that today is an incredibly special day and we should be celebrating our engagement. We're going out for lunch and it's all going smoothly. It's going to be a marvelous day.We've been holding hands for the past thirty minutes. I don't know where he's taking me, I didn't ask, but I'm sure I'll love it. I asked him about his meeting and he said everything went well. Again, he didn't elaborate, but who talks business when they're supposed to be celebrating? I'm prying too much. I'm making too much of that smudge of blood. It could be anything."I'll have to find a dress soon," I tell him. "Theo is confident that we'll find something tomorrow."He smiles and kisses my forehead. "Don't let her bully you into picking something you don't want. I know how impatient she can be.""I don't mind," I

"I'll be back later.""Okay," she simply says.He gets back in the car and tells Roger to stop by The Lounge. They have to pick up t

It's something else, a bad feeling he can't comprehend. She pauses momentarily. "Does it feel good?""Sure," he responds. She looks at him funny, but finishes the job.
