Damien drops Amelia off at the apartment.He accompanies her upstairs. Their talk over lunch was tense, but necessary. Now he knows about Ethan. Something changed in his brother that night. He has the certainty that he's in some kind of trouble, he just can't figure out what it is. It's only a matter of time before he does.He also knows how she feels about Devon Tyler.He was worried about her reaction. He knew what he had to do, he had no doubts, but Amelia and that man had a bizarre...relationship. He couldn't understand it at first and it infuriated him. They're on the same page, though, and she wants him out of their lives as much as he does. Hearing her say the words was relieving. He'll admit that if she had asked him to release him, he'd release the son of a bitch. He would let him go. He'd do whatever she asked him to.He kisses her at the door. "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
The Ganglord’s Girl 224: Past
He can't believe he's going to die in this miserable place.He has no clue of how many hours have passed, all he knows is that he's lost all hope whatsoever. He's never been this thirsty before in all his life. He can't even manage to scream for help anymore. His body is shutting down, he can feel it. It doesn't help that he hasn't hydrated properly in some days. He was drinking at the party.His hands are incredibly sore. He's been pounding at that piece of metal for a door for hours. He managed to free himself, but it didn't benefit him in any way. He's still stuck in this room. His voice is hoarse now, he can barely utter a word without feeling pain in his throat. This is it. This is the end. This is how he dies.He's gone from feeling angry to feeling like he deserves all this shit that's happening to him. He deserves an end like this. How many people has he fucked over before? He fucked those girls and gave them hope. He promised them that someday she'd work for them but he disca
The Ganglord’s Girl 225: Fears
There are only two weeks and a half left to go before our wedding.I don't know where the time has gone. I'm floating and sinking at the same damn time. We're not even halfway there with the preparations and Theo and Greg have had their first fight only yesterday. Something about the flower arrangements. I wasn't paying attention, I had a lot on my mind.There's something Damien wants to tell me, but I know he's afraid of ruining our wedding plans. I don't care about that, I told him. I can take the truth, no matter how harsh it is. He doesn't have anyone to confide in but me, and I want to support him in any way that I can.It's about Ethan, I'm a hundred percent sure.Ever since I told him about my suspicions, their relationship took a turn for the worse. Just last week they had an intense argument about a decision Damien made without consulting him. They had an agreement, sure, but Ethan hasn't been around much and Damien couldn't sit around and wait for him to show up. Besides, he
The Ganglord’s Girl 226: Falling Apart
Damien kisses Amelia goodbye and gets straight back to work.His words scared her earlier and he vehemently wishes that he could take them back. The last thing he wants is to worry her. It'll only exacerbate her restlessness. He knows she's anxious about this situation and he doesn't blame her, this hasn't been easy on anyone. It's going to get worse, he's certain of it. And there's still a lot he doesn't know.Since he couldn't take back what he said, he did what he could to relax her. He rolled up her dress and ate his way to her heart. He had her moaning his name and writhing in his chair. Her legs shook violently and she fought desperately to muffle her moans. He tasted every inch of her and relished in the familiarity of tonguing her sweet folds. He took his sweet time and he enjoyed every minute of it. For a moment, he forgot that his own blood had stabbed him in the back, that he was slowly dying on the inside. When he was done with her, she didn't mention any of it again. She
The Ganglord’s Girl 227: Tomorrow
I can't wait for Damien to get home.First and foremost, we have to continue our conversation. I want to know exactly what he meant when he said that something might happen to him. He distracted me, but I've given it another thought and I'm not going to let it slide. He wants to wait until after the wedding, but this is different. This has nothing to do with Ethan and Theo finding out. He's talking about death. He wants to marry me as quickly as possible because he thinks he might die. He didn't have to say the words out loud, I understood.And I'm fucking terrified.I'm overcome with the urge to kill Ethan myself. I'll kill him and get this done and over with. Damien will forgive me. Theo might not, but at least this will all be behind us. How dare he sabotage my happiness? How dare he betray his own family? I can't believe Damien and I are related to that prick. I sacrificed myself for my brother, and Damien would do anything to keep us safe. My mother went through hell to keep us a
The Ganglord’s Girl 228: Battlefield
We're waiting for Ethan.By now, Theo knows that something is horribly wrong. She's been drumming her fingernails against the table non-stop ever since she sat down. She's been looking at all of us in the eye. She's not content; I can sense that she feels betrayed in a sense. It seems like all of us here have an idea of what's going on. She doesn't. She's been so distracted by the wedding plans that she didn't notice anything.I can't meet her gaze. I know the lie I told her last night was a necessary one, but we've been getting undeniably close and I didn't even give her a heads-up. I remind myself that this is what Damien wanted and I didn't want to sabotage his plan by opening my mouth. Theo would run to Ethan. He'd find out one way or another and he wouldn't even show up.Who am I kidding, he might not show up as it is.He might know by now about Gillian. If so, then his guess is that Damien knows the whole truth. That's just my assumption, I could be wrong. I hope I am. Damien to
The Ganglord’s Girl 229: Change of Plans
"I feel like I'm in a nightmare," Theo says, blowing her nose on a napkin. "I've pinched myself a dozen times and I still haven't woken up."I keep rubbing her back because I don't know what else to do. What to say. She's bitterly disappointed in Ethan, I could tell by the way she reacted at the meeting. The normal Theo would never say such things to Ethan. He deserved her harsh treatment. Even now, he's not man enough to fix his mistakes. Damien gave him a chance.Who knows if what he said is true? Peneope could be perfectly fine somewhere. I can't believe he acted out simply because he found out that Gabriel Keller was his biological father. He betrayed his entire family because of it, then acted as if everything was fine. I never expected this from him. I thought he was a man of character.Like my Damien.After Ethan left, Damien asked me to escort Theo out because she was crying hysterically, but I think he just wanted to discuss his plans with the men in there. He didn't want us
The Ganglord’s Girl 230: Vows
Theo left with Roger to take care of the last minute preparations.I'm lying in bed and taking deep breaths before calling my mother. I know she won't be happy about this. She hates it when plans change, but there's nothing I can do about it. I'm not sure if I should tell her about Ethan and Damien's feud. Maybe not. Even though she didn't raise Ethan, I know she loves him. It's something we've never discussed, but I'm hoping we'll have the chance to do that when she arrives. We'll spend a lot of time together and it'll be like we were never apart.She answers on the second ring. "Amelia. I wasn't expecting your call so soon. Is everything alright?"No or yes? How do I answer her question? "It's...well, the plan has changed. Damien and I are getting married soon. And by soon I mean tonight."She's quiet for a solid minute. I'm waiting for her to say something and I'll go on from there. She asks, "What prompted the sudden change?""It's complicated," I admit. "I'll talk to him, someone
