"Ah yes. Nelson came to visit us, and informed us you're no longer staying in his home. Such a shame, Jefferson was wanting to visit you... Perhaps since you're no longer staying with your uncle you could come visit us."
Collen snorted hearing the such a shame part. 'No matter how you try spinning it lady, Kendra's better off without her Uncle and most likely without your son all the same.' He thought to himself giving her a superficial smile, which she of course returned in kind. The only difference was her fake smile almost felt genuine... Collen's was more along the lines of a sneer. 'Ah fuck it, my body knew the proper reaction to give.' He thought, giving himself a mental pat on the back.
"And who might this... Charming.. Young man be? My name is Winifred Thomas Kendr

Kendra and Collen were completely engrossed in their kiss. Kendra was past turned on. She had been wanting Collen almost since she first met him. As the pair were kissing Collen and Kendra both began working to remove her shorts. There was a sense of desperation between the pair as their carnal instincts completely took over, while they almost ripped each other's clothes off. Once her shorts were removed Kendra reached for her phone."You're really sure you want to go through with this?""Are you kidding me? At this moment the one thing I'm sure of is how badly I want it, and this will get those assholes off my back too!" Kendra's eyes were wide with excitement. She grabbed for her phone hitting the record button. "Hello Thomas family~! This is Jefferson's fiancé here! Wha- Oooh wow! Holy shit!" She cried out as Collen moved his head down between her legs. "Oh shit! This is going to be a good night!"The next mornin

"Yes Ma'am We're on our way to the clinic Terrance got hurt and we were forced to leave." The leader of the team that had attacked Collen's voice came over the speaker of the phone. Winifred and Benjamin were sitting in the their den receiving the report from her men. She had ordered them to make Collen suffer, she didn't go into specifics how, but the outcome for those who upset her enough to warrant such a response was generally a good one. She had yet to disappointed by her men."Hurt? What do you mean hurt?""He gouged out his eyes and shot him in the knee.""He did what!?" There are two different types of people fight or flight. Some people get thrust into a situation and they're overcome with fear looking for quickest way to escape. Even if someone were to tackle them to the ground, if they fight back usually it's just enough to get away. Then you have the fighters. The ones who will scratch, bite, kick, punch, hell probably insult your mother the en

A few weeks had passed since the first attacks had begun. Benjamin, Winifred, and Jefferson all remained holed up inside their home. And they felt as if they were even further from discovering the cause of all these attacks, and who it was behind them. They were being crippled by the perpetrators. Within the first few days of the beginning attacks, their personal security forces were decimated. They never seem to have a fighting chance. And any other security companies they hired or had a close working relationship with were all attacked on the moment they would depart for the Thomas's home. Soon every company would seem eager to accept a contract from them until they heard it was the Thomas family calling. The men on the other end of the line would immediately hang up on them. Some would even laugh at them even when offered double their usual rates plus all expenses to be paid.It felt as if the world had suddenly turned it's back on the Thomas family. But that was just the

Winifred couldn't believe what she was witnessing. Out of every possibility, out every person on this planet. She never would have guessed everything stemmed back to Collen. She didn't understand how either, her background checks were beyond thorough. If there's a mole on the person's ass it was usually listed in the file."Erm. I don't mean to bother you, but have we met before perhaps?""Ah I doubt it. Though I guess you could say I'm something of a celebrity in Ireland. My name is Michael McDermott. Collen's Uncle.""A celebrity? Like an actor?""No not quite an actor." Michael chuckled to himself.Ogden ran through a list in her mind. 'I know I've heard that name somewhere before.' He had a few contacts in Ireland, and had even done some business there a few times both legal and illegal."Well shall we?" Collen suggested."Ah yes, pardon my manners please follow us.""Grand father why are you even listening to this ba

Alison and Daphne, even Bernard all looked to Evelyn after hearing Kendra's bold declaration."What's everyone looking at me for? She can love whoever she wants to. Just know I'm still number one." Evelyn giggled at everyone's expressions. They were half torn on how to react until now. Of course no one else knew this, but Kendra had actually felt some inner turmoil herself when it came to her feelings for Collen. One day she felt from the depths of her heart she owed Evelyn an apology, both for sleeping with Collen... A few times... The first night alone.. And she wished to apologize for these feelings she felt regardless of the fact there's no fighting your hear, Evelyn was a friend to her. But to Kendra's surprise it didn't bother Evelyn in the least. Her words were. ' If you think you can take his heart, feel free to try.' While some people may possibly see the words as an insult or a provocation, it was merely Evelyn having love and faith in Collen.

It was an early morning.. Well every morning is to early for Sierra. A girl needs her beauty rest you know. It wasn't necessarily unusual for hopeful fans or paparazzi to be waiting outside the doors hoping to spot their celebrity crush, or fishing for a pose or scandalous photograph. Sometimes those types tend to look a little on the shady side as well but eventually after coming to work for so long Sierra was able to get a sense of their personalities, telling the good from the bad, or simply those that are just hopefuls. 'I'm not saying I have to call security or the police every day, but I'm not saying I haven't had to... And that man.. Just looks shady as hell.' Sierra thought to herself looking across the road a man looked both drunk and haggard, and his eyes had been glued to The Garden's doors the entire time since Sierra showed up. It was clear he was waiting for someone in particular, and she couldn't help but have that gut feeling deep down that his intentions were far fr

By the time Collen arrived back at the beach house he discovered everyone was awake, and enjoying breakfast."Hey Collen join us for breakfast!" Alison called out, waving to him from her seat. Generally breakfast wasn't exactly the most enticing meal, and was one he would frequently skip out on.... That being said. 'If this becomes a daily thing for breakfast I may become much more enthusiastic about it." He thought to himself gulping down the saliva forming in his mouth. All the girls were seated at the table wearing lingerie. 'It's an eye buffet!'"Perhaps you should be picking your jaw up off the floor." Evelyn said walking past and smacking him on the butt. She was apparently feeling much more brazen than the rest of the group since she strut past wearing only a thong swinging her braw in her hand,. Alison stared on with her mouth open as Evelyn passed her by, Daphne, and Kendra on the other hand seem to be completely at home with such confidence. When Evelyn arriv

"What?" Collen muttered in shock completely unable to hide his surprise. Out of all the possible reasons that raised to the surface of his brain. Nothing had even drawn near this conclusion. He pulled his head back looking Daphne in the eyes. Her face was over shadowed by remorse. 'She's not lying.' Collen was almost praying she was just having a moment of a dark sense of humor, hoping she would pull away from him and scream 'Fooled you!' But no such thing happened."I remember when he was younger I couldn't stand him. He was always wanting to be around me. If given the opportunity he would try to tag along with me anywhere. I could have said I was going to fight in a war and he would have tried crawling in my duffel bag to come with me." She said silently began crying. "He just wanted to be with his sister! But at the time all I cared about was myself!" Daphne was clinging to Collen like her life was dependent on keeping that grip and began sobbing uncontrollably. Collen did

Elsewhere. "Sir we will be arriving shortly." "Aye. Thanks lad." An older man thanked his driver.. Sitting in the backseat of a luxurious sedan was an older man in dressed head to toe in both style and decadence. His appearance, voice and manners all refined almost to perfection, his aura commanded your attention. Yet he was currently smiling ear to ear like a giddy school boy. "It's been some time since I've seen you this excited sir. Are you sure it's okay for you to arrive without announcing yourself ahead of time?" "Bah. Now where would the fun be in that?" "Well I'm just saying sir. Someone of your stature should be recognized. You're far from a nobody." "Aye I suppose one could argue that, but I've never been one to enjoy my status. Besides there's a young man I wish to surprise." Backstage of the charity event. "Alright hurry now. We only have so much time to fix this disaster." Evelyn stated glancing back over her shoulder while maintaining a brisk pace. "Wait..

Present day."Evelyn!" Tatianna cried out in excitement holding her arms out preparing for a hug. Then there was Aurora. Every time the spotlight managed to find it's way to her, her silhouette managed to shrink. But as soon as the subject changed or Tatianna managed to deflect it away from her, Aurora would begin to recover. But this moment? Her silhouette shrank so much she could barely even be seen as a shadow.'That's Evelyn Constantine! That's Evelyn Constantine!' Aurora was currently in melt down mode. Her face was a bright tomato red. It wouldn't surprise her in the least if steam was visibly bellowing from her ears.'T-Two s-super models... Wait no three! AND I LOOK LIKE THIS!? Dear god Any other day I would pay to be in the presence of these women, but why today of all days do I have to look like a train wreck!?' Aurora clenched her teeth and eyes closed trying her best to prevent tears welling up in her eyes and furthering her disappointing appearance. Her current wardrobe,

"Think you can fuck with us !? Both of you can go to hell!" Sven roared charging at Collen. He was committed to his actions. Once in a while a little blood just had to be spilled. Of course it never did look good in the headlines, and would bring heat down upon all of the gangs in the area. But this was all acceptable. Police attention could be bought, and even if they were to launch an investigation, there was only one thing worse. A loss of respect. If the people you stand above don't respect you, soon the payments begin coming up short, then they'll stop altogether. Soon enough individuals, and neighborhoods will stop complying. That would leave you with two options. First uproot and find another neighborhood who doesn't know any better and crack a few skulls so to speak. The second. You crack every skull that speaks out against you. But at that point you've allowed a wound to fester, and it's only going to get worse. Instead of keeping a firm hand with one or two individuals from

"Huh?" Crutches stood dumbstruck. He had never once so much as uttered a word to Sven let a alone beat him to a pulp and send his car flying into traffic. 'Shit I'm still recovering from having my ass beaten to a pulp, I'm not gonna go out looking for a fight in this condition!' Sven smirked pointing his nose in the air. "As you can see it was a close fight. After kicking his ass I even showed mercy... I was the bigger man, chose to walk away of my own free will.. Then the bastard sucker punched me! And while my head was still spinning he began raining down blow after blow. Absolutely no honor among adversaries. 'No honor among adversaries!? I was never an adversary to begin with! I mean I won't say it's something I wouldn't do, but damn! If I'm going to be accused at least allow me to throw a few punches!' He thought as his mouth hung open bringing a whole to level of dumb to his expression. "Huh?" Tatianna uttered in complete dismay. 'I expected Sven to pull some shady shit in r

"So who are we looking for anyway?"...!!!'Oh shit! I hadn't even thought of that! What the hell am I going to tell Aurick!? Oh hey by the way that's the person who whooped my ass, sent my car flying into traffic, fingered me to the person who's car it hit, and the police! By the way it's also a girl who maybe weighs one hundred and ten pounds top!' Sven thought to himself, his eyes squeezed shut, clamping his hands to his head shaking it side to side. Sure Aurick was a long time friend, and if there's anyone who would possibly let this go it would be him. That being said some times friends are the ones to give you the most shit above anyone else. The closer you were, chances are the more shit you'll take."ERRr.... About that... " Sven mumbled.'Man I'll just have to bite the bullet and tell him what happened. Obviously neglecting to mention the information about how I've been extorting the boss's clients after their debts were paid.'Sven sighed and began glancing side to side loo

"This is bullshit I'm telling you it wasn't my fault! RAAAAH!" Sven roared raking his dinner tray back and forth across the jail cell bars he currently found himself comfortably forced into, and when we say comfortably it was probably as comfortable as sitting on an angry porcupine. "As much as I'm enjoying these fine one star accommodations... LET ME THE FUCK OUT!""For the love of Christ all mighty will you shut up already!" An officer sitting at his desk groaned. Unfortunately he was the lowest ranked officer in their precinct therefore got the desk closest to the jail cells housing all of the lovely intoxicated and angry people who would love nothing more than to shove a stun gun up his nostril. "You know why you're in here!""No! No I don't know why I'm in here I'm telling you it's that -""It was your car that rolled onto a main road correct?""Well yes but it was -""There was an awful lot of money in your vehicle for someone who's records show as unemployed.""So what!?

"Ты хочешь снова упомянуть мою семью!? Я засуну свой кулак тебе в задницу и вытащу твою голову оттуда!" (You want to mention my family again!? I'm going shove my fist up your ass and pull your head back out of it! ) Tatianna roared pivoting on the pads of her foot and driving her knee hard into his ribs.CRACK!Though it wasn't super loud, there was certainly the audible sound of something fracturing or breaking."NYAAAAH!" Sven cried out in agony. He was usually the one doling out the beating not receiving them. To pour a little salt on the wound, it happened this was the first time he ever had anything either broken or fractured. Tatianna on the other hand was trying her best to control her laughter at his noises. She may have seen an anime or two in her time and couldn't help but feel his sounds were that of a cat girl doing the pawing motion.'If this is what passes for a gangster these days I don't ever want to meet who they consider the weak.' She shrugged."NYoo BEITCHEEEEEEE

A few minutes prior to Tatianna's encounter. "Yes boss.. Yes I'm on my way to McDonalds right now.""Ah is it the one the Devine girl works at?" A gruff yet smooth Russian accent came through the phone's speaker."Yes boss that's the one. What can I say it's my favorite." The man driving responded"Haha I can imagine why. It's quite the view if you know what I mean. But that reminds me, their debt was paid off I believe two months ago, you made sure to tell them and give my condolences about Mr. Devine right?""Of course boss. They were very touched by your words and the fact you were willing to knock down their debt to the exact amount borrowed after his death. Very generous if I do say so myself.""Good, good. Keep up the good work Sven. Though I lost that extra money, word will spread how compassionate and great Yuri is. People will flock to me for loans!""Hehe no doubt boss. Ah I'm here now." The man named Sven declared pulling into a parking spot shutting off his car. Sven look

"It's true! I had absolutely no desire to become a model! I was perfectly content working at McDonalds minding my own business when someone almost forced me to become a model." Tatianna declared with a straight face. ...No one present truly knew Tatianna which was currently their biggest dilemma. Assume she's joking and laugh? You could but what if she was being serious? Wouldn't laughing make them downright insensitive?'Sometimes I can't help myself.' Tatianna smirked watching the group look back and forth squirming under the imaginary pressure. "I'm joking. Well about being forced at the very least. Unable to maintain her straight face Tatianna emit a small chuckle her beautiful smile returning to her face.Everyone had been staring at her slack jawed especially James. He himself had never encountered any career models who hadn't grown up with that burning desire to launch a career, who wasn't willing to fight tooth and nail to follow their heart!
