"That clown you're better off without him, he will use you and throw you to the side in the end." Collen shrugged.
"No I mean I'm under contract with him."
"Don't worry, we will take care of that. As long as you show how sincere you are during this week. Just enjoy your time in the hotel Collen is going to set up." Evelyn sighed. "This is going to be a headache."
Sierra ran over to Collen handing him a piece of paper. "Well ladies, I have to make a few phone calls. I'll leave you to it."
The atmosphere had become much lighter after Alexander left. "So will things be ok? I know that guy Tanner seemed to really dislike Collen."
"Oh you don't have to worry about him. I fired him, he was only here to return a favor to his father."
"Do you mind if I ask what happened in the office?"
"Hmmm." Evelyn crossed one arm over her chest and cupped her chi

Alison had swore today would be the day! The day things would finally turn her way, the day she would finally get a real contract with a respectable company. She just would never have imagined that it would begin the way it had. The would be hero Daniel Burgundy actually turned out to be would be molester or worse. The man she had doubts about had turned out to be the hero. One of, if not the most kind person she has ever been fortunate enough to meet.Evelyn had bid farewell to Daphne, Sierra, and Alison a few minutes ago, the girls were now waiting for Collen to finish making his call at Sierra's desk."No....NO!.. Well how about you read the damn caller ID and you will know where I'm calling from, or do you spend all your money of roofies to use on the women you represent you prick! Look I don't care, Listen here Mr. Boggerdeedee If I find out you or your brother come near here again or anyone we represent I will bring the damn building down on top of your head!

"Would you believe me if I said I am the owner?"Alison, and Daphne both turned to look at Collen simultaneously. Collen sat on the bar stool looking to the girls with a calm smile on his face. They both were searching Collen's eyes with their inquisitive gazes glued to him searching for the truth. Their expressions both seem to say the same thing in the end. 'Impossible.''There's no way right? He works a desk! He was being beaten on by the Tanner guy.' At this point Alison could not help but trust Collen almost completely, but this.. This was just too much for her to accept. It would make him a billionaire who was walking around in Blue jeans, rescuing women in danger, placing himself in danger that being said! What billionaire does that?Daphne was having very similar thoughts. She had not been rescued by Collen, had any kind of interaction with him that would make her head over heels for him, or place her trust in him completely. So she was doing her best to ga

Alison and Daphne followed his finger with their eyes. The pair looked up at the ceiling as if their lingering gaze could pierce through the layers of the building standing above them. Daphne frowned. She couldn't help but feel Collen was taking Alison and herself for fools. Any floors above them were all suites of some sort. She even knew the top ones took up an entire floor to itself."And just which floor is it your majesty is staying on." Daphne laughed her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Look I really don't know what your game is, but even if we are new to the industry, even if you are in fact Evelyn's boy toy, the hotel would not simply comp you a suite, plus I doubt she values the sex at ten thousand dollars a night just because you're feeling kind of tired."Collen could only smile. He completely understood anyone having doubts especially about someone they had just met earlier this afternoon. If someone came up to him and said, ' Oh hey by the

All her life Daphne had always been a city girl she was born, raised, and would probably die in the city. Any times she previously took a drive outside the city, was usually in the day time or she had slept. So the view that lay in front of her struck her down to the core. When the elevator came to a stop the doors had opened revealing a rooftop garden like nothing she had ever seen. A river stretched across the rooftop, on one side there was a pool that looked similar to a tropical beach. Beautiful assortment of flower filled the grassy area with the occasional tree underneath the largest one was a small clearing and a bench. flowing out from the elevator a stone path that connected to a small bridge rising over the river, and towards A large glass dome. While all of this was indeed impressive, what truly took her breath away was the sky."It's so beautiful." Fate could not have chosen a more beautiful clear night to present this gift to the eyes. Everyone grows

"If you two would like you can stay the night up here." They had sat down and enjoyed a movie while finishing their drinks. When Collen heard Alison yawn. "Umm." Daphne began to say before Collen held up his hand. "This place has more then one room of course." He laughed seeing the look on Daphne's face. "S-Sorry." "I really meant it when I said I expect nothing in return. If in the future you decide you want some sort of relationship great. If not, no pressure. It won't change how I treat you." Collen shrugged his shoulders. It was far from the first time he had a reaction like this, it would probably be far from the last time either. Alison glanced over to Daphne. "I'm ok with it if you are?" .. "What the hell, why not? Although if you touch Alison, I'll cut your parts off." Daphne smiled confidently. "Oh does that mean you're fair game?" Collen asked teasingly. "Play your cards right." !!

Knock Knock. Daphne and Alison were awoken by the sounds of someone gently knocking on the door. Both of the girls were at first unwilling to open their eyes afraid the night before was nothing more then a beautiful dream. Alison cringed slowly opening a single eye, her eye's immediately shot open and she happily let out an excited squeak before bouncing out of the bed. "I'm coming!" She called out practically floating to the door. 'Guess that means it wasn't a dream.' Daphne thought. She opened her eyes and even she couldn't contain a smile of her own. 'What can I say this girl's attitude is just contagious.' She then heard another squeal of excitement echo out from the hallway. Daphne followed the voices to find a Alison smiling ear to ear while talking with an employee of the hotel. "Daphne! Daphne! Look!" Alison called out. As Daphne stepped out of the hallway A smiling maid gave Daphne a light bow. "Hello, Ma'am. I was instructed by a young Irish

Alexander had waited, and waited for Daphne in his car. Although he had been thrown out of The Garden, he had fully anticipated Daphne would be returning shortly. 'After the way Evelyn was treating her I bet she wouldn't dream of leaving my organization now.' He thought to himself lighting up a cigarette leaning against his car confident she would appear walking through the parking garage her butt shaking side to side as she ran to him crying about what the evil bitch did....'Been quite some time. Wonder if they're still going at her, hopefully she doesn't get damaged beyond repair. I've put to much time and effort into that girl. I'll be damned if I allow her to break before I'm able to recoup my losses.' He watched as car, after car passed him by, person after person, families, hell even a stray dog all passed by him but none were the person he was waiting for. His anger began to quickly build up and it was nearing boiling."What the hell is taki

"You've got to be shitting me!" Alexander screamed seeing the cop turn on his lights behind his vehicle. When the police officer approached, Alexander had his window down and was tapping away with his finger impatiently. 'I know I didn't do anything to warrant this, so what the hell is going on?' "Good Afternoon-" The cop politely began. "What the hell are you doing!? What possible reason could you have for pulling me over!?" "Well sir w-" The cop began just to get cut off again. "Seriously do you pigs just drive around seeing who can fit the most donuts in your big fat gut, then when that ceases to entertain you people-" "Sir plea-" "You see someone who's obviously living a better life than you, So you decide screw those people. It makes me feel like an inadequate fat sack of shit! Let's pull them over!" "SIR! I'll have you know we received reports of a possible drunk driver that both matched your vehicle descrip

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!
