I headed home in my car and went straight to my room. I changed into my black bra and grey shorts pulling my hair into a bun and head to bed to get my luxurious sleep.
The next morning, I got up and headed for the shower and changed into a a khaki green top with a black skirt outlining all of my curves. I topped it off with a dark grey blazer and black heels. I put my phone and keys in my purse slipping four guns onto my body. Like my father says 'You're never too safe'. I got into the car and headed over to the Martinez Headquarter for my meeting.
It was a gorgeous building filled with elegance top to bottom no doubt.
'Hi. Welcome to the Martinez Headquarter. How can I help you today?' said the man at the front desk.
'I have a meeting about buying land.'
'Ok. Can I have your details?'
'Reina Clementine Romano.'
'Alright, head on over there.'
I sat down on a black chair in the corridor. After a couple of moments, a woman approached me.
'Mr. Martinez will see you now.' she said.
I got up and headed towards the door and knocked on it. A disembodied dead smoky voice said 'Come in.'
I walked in and closed the door and made my way to the chair that was in front of him. I felt his eyes trailing me the whole way. Only when I sat down, I had a moment to study him.
I looked into his burning red eyes that could pierce through me. Emotionless like he simply did not give one fuck. The sort that made you recoil by simply standing in his presence. He had a sharp jawbone that looked as if it could cut my skin if I were to trace it. He had jet black haired which was curly giving him a more elegant touch. Quite a handsome man if I might say.
Suddenly, I was snapped out of my thoughts.
'Ms. Romano, you done staring me or do you want more time?' he asked with a straight face with his red eyes looking at me directly.
'You say that as if your eyes don't trail on my own body. Why don't we get on with me buying the land?'.
'Pardon you.' he stated.
'I'm sorry. I didn't realise you were hard of hearing. I said I F Y O U W A N T M E TO BE OUT O F Y O U R U G L Y H A I R , W E S H O U L D P R O B A B L Y G E T O N W I T H T H E W O R K.' I said.
He stared at me in disbelief. Silence fell on us.
'You know what, never mind I will just email you instead.' I said standing up. 'Not like I needed this.'
And just like that I left the room.
What a hideously sexy man! Judging by the look that was on his fact, I'm guessing that no one has stood up to him before.
Anyways I have better things to be doing than dealing with that jackass.
Like the 893 missed calls from my dad.
Best to pick it up before he dies of a heart attack.
'Hi.....'
'REINA CLEMENTINE ROMANO. I TOLD YOU TO NOT GET THAT PLANE OR ANYWHERE NEAR WHERE YOU ARE. WHY DO YOU NEVER LISTEN? YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO YOUR WISE FATH-'
'IS THAT MY BABYY.?' I heard my mum screaming from across the phone.
'How have you been baby?'
'I'm good ma, you?' I replied.
'I'm good. I'm afraid your dad might die of a heart attack if you don't give him any calls.'
'Yeah Yeah.'
The conversation carried on and I fell asleep on the sofa watching Barbie of Swan Lake. it was 2 am and I woke up and headed to the underground fighting arena. God, I love beating the shit out of men.
Tonight's prize was 500k for the last man standing. I entered the arena and out my name on the ballot and placed it into a box. Eventually I was called out. Fight after fight. Only meant victory after victory.
'Tonight's doghouse champion is Rosaline Danvers.'
Of course, I had to make a fake name no one could find out. Once he put my hand I looked into the crowd, and found myself staring into a pair of red eyes. It was him
His red eyes pierced through me and into my soul but I couldn't give him the satisfaction of winning so I glared back with confidence, arrogance and pride rushing through my veins.
As soon as the man put my hand down from the air, I took my gaze from him and walked into the changing room and placed a baggy hoody over my sports bra. A man's presence entered the room.
'Mr. Martinez what can I do for you?' I say without making eye contact 'but may I just say I don't appreciate you stalking me.'
'This my fighting club.' he growled with an authoritive tone.
'Ok and...' I said turning to face him.
He stared at me with rage while clenching his teeth.
'It may be your club, but you came in the day I fight in a club where I am the reigning the queen in the boxing ring. Your choice not mine. So back to the point, what do you want besides the stalking of my gorgeous presence that you feel the need to be around.'
'Number One I am not stalking you and number two I want an apology for your behaviour this morning in the office.'
I stared at him and laughed like the fucking maniac I am.
'Oh wait, you’re not joking.' I said cocking my left eyebrow.
He stepped closer towards me and placed his hands on my hips and spoke
'Darling, one way or another I will be getting an apology you and I both know that.' he whispered leaning into my ear.
I then took a moment and stared into his face.
I edged closer to him
'See that's where you're wrong. So, before I humiliate you, I'm going to ask you to reflect on your obsessive stalkerish behaviour and then report to the teacher to write an apology letter to me. Okay, darling? ' I said with a mocking tone while crushing the bones in his hand and like that I left out of the back entrance.
As soon as I got into my car, I was wary of someone else's presence around him. Not someone else's his. I got my car and started driving and figured that he got someone trailing me. What a fucking nosy cunt!
I swerved my car in multiple direction to get him confused but soon I realised three cars were trailing me. This man is one of a kind. He has no clue who I am but seems to be provoking me.
All three cars came in from different direction. I accelerated to 150mph and spotted a sea and drove straight into it throwing the car over a cliff.
Except the fact I wasn't in the car. I rolled of it the moment I needed them off my trail.
Skilled, aren't I?
I saw their shell-shocked faces with their jaws dropped to the floor and one of them took their phone and made a call. Most likely to be Martinez. Imagine how they would break the news 'oh yeah you know the girl you told us to trail, well she ran her car of a cliff so she's probably dead.'
At least he would think so.
Anyways, after one of them made the phone call they began returning to their cars. Now was the perfect time to strike. I pounced one of them from behind. Strangling him while the other two were talking to each other.
I took my gun and shot the other two men. Don't worry, I didn't kill them. My bullets are laced with poison and won't harm any organs but most likely to black you out for 16 to 24 hours roughly.
I then knocked one of the men out and left with one of their cars. I stopped mid-way my journey burning the car. They were probably trackers or something of this sort on there.
I didn't have a ride but I knew exactly where I wanted to go. And I headed exactly there.
A mansion. A big beautiful mansion
With a lovely surprise on it just for Martinez to open.
There it was. My masterpiece. It was amazing and beautiful.All of the red spray cans were now empty and I was in awe of my talent. Just on his mansion's front porch was speltStop obsessing over me stalkerOk. I know we all have limits but this man just sent three men after me. God knows what would he have done. He obnoxious as hell and he was getting what he purely deserved. I loved the thrills that these kinds of things had on me. A car engine was coming in. It was time to leave.I got in the car and ran it into a lake and made my way home laughing at the image of him being shell shocked at my vandalism. I would pay to see that. I got to the porch and hopped on my motorbike to do a quick hit on Alessandro Mikane. A clever man but has no morals in any sort. This job pays me 300k. I would be a fool not to do it. I stood at the roof of the building and pulled the trigger on the gun. I saw a body drop down and screams everywhere. The guy was a crazy rich whore. So, surrounds him ar
Jax's Point of ViewMy mind was in utter shock in what I had just had witnessed. A woman had just made her way into my office and out of it with total sass. She blatantly called me deaf and walked out. She called me JAX PHOENIX MARTINEZ slow in the head. She clearly doesn't have any clue in who I was. But something about her stood out. Besides her feisty and sassy attitude, she had dark melanin brown skin. She was clearly mixed race as she had the Sicilian hazel eyes just like sweet honey.Her skirt was short and top was worn under a dark grey blazer. It fit perfectly to her physique. She had no problem staring coldly at me in the eyes before walking out. Every woman I have met in my life, name or not, has thrown themselves at me constantly without taking a hint. Reina Romano. The only woman I have met that has not thrown herself at me. She was interesting. And interesting was what I like. As time passed since she left, she was on my mind. I was curious about her.Night quickl
When I said something was going to happen, I meant I threw a glass a champagne over his suit. It looked expensive. Damn how was his broke ass going to afford a new suit. Anyways not my problem.Yeah, best to rewind.He scowled and growled and what not after I stepped on his feet a couple hundred times and at the corner of my eyes, I saw a waiter bringing drinks around. I was like damn that looks good.You know how they say two wrongs don't make a right. So, what would a right (the champagne) and the wrong (Martinez) make.Well, the answer to that is a ruined suit, an angry Martinez and a very happy Reina.He was in total shock so I decided to leave him on the dance floor. People were staring at me like I started a revolution. Maybe I should. A revolution for killing any man named Jax. I could be the leader. I could develop my club into a cult. Eh maybe when I can actually be asked to do this when I ain't lazy.I went to a bar on the same street on the hall at which the ball was takin
It was him. It was fucking him that knocked me out.I'm seriously questioning how much free time he has if he makes it his lifelong goal to have an obsession with me.Could he possibly know, who I am.'So, do I get an answer.' he retorted snapping me out of his thoughts. 'No, you don't' I replied taking my eyes off him and going back to the paperwork that was in front of me. 'Now leave.''Nop' emphasising the 'p' sound.'Fine.' I started filling in the paperwork. He could see I was frustrated and clearly acknowledged that he was the reason since I left the fucking deal with him.He suddenly spoke out 'Who’s the black hunter?''Why did you kidnap me?' I questioned almost instantly. 'Do you know the black hunter?''Who knocked me out?''Why did he kill at my club?'Martinez used the pronoun he. The most common mistake has anyone made but nonetheless I continued.'Did your stalkerish obsession get a bit too high to control you needed to kidnap me?''I don't have an obsession with you
Jax Point of ViewChaos in my fucking club as soon as I walked in. I saw Reina at the bar smiling like a god damn psychopath.She knew something.'The Black Hunter was here.' one of my men said 'all the cameras were hacked and can't be unhacked. Angelo is trying.''Cover it up.' II ordered while my eyes were on her.She knows something and I plan on finding out. I went from behind her and pushed at the centre of the bottom of her neck and she fell backwards.I took her into my arms and took her to the back of the club. She would be out for 6-8 hours and when she does wake up, I will get my answers.I left her at the back in a locked room in case she tried anything. I came back in the morning to check up on her and walked in.Sloan was lying on the floor knocked out and so was Dolan. Where was she?Rage flew by me but the most significant emotion was confusion.How on earth did this woman beat up men who were twice her size? Where did she learn how to fight? How did she fight so we
Reina's Point of ViewElectrical impulses were the only thing that sparked when he brushed his fingers across my inner thigh and knees. I know I should not be liking but I can't help it.He was the only one that did this. I seduce plenty of men but none of them felt like him. He was different but I have no clue how and in what way.Just then, Malik excused himself to go to the restroom.'Get your stinky hands off my clean body.' I snarled grabbing his hands off.'You liked it.' he stated smirking.Fucking hell, the amount of energy it takes me to restrain from killing him will eventually kill me.'I did not.' I growled.'Then why didn't you remove it?''I won't make a scene for you. Narcissus, you're just a cocky arrogant pig that has no life except stalking poor girls like me. ''Nem darling you love the sexual tension.' he said while smiling cockily.Payback's a bitch.When Malik came back, he began talking to both of us once again but once he engages with Narcissus it was the time
Reina's Point of ViewI turned him on and left.God, I love myself. He thought I was quiver at the sense of his touch but let that be a lesson to not play a game with someone that can most definitely play it better than you no matter what.I wish I caught his face on camera it was absolutely priceless.But there was something else there.He wasn't wrong about the sexual tension as much as I would love to deny it. I felt it. He felt it and I also think Malik also felt it. No wonder he got uncomfortable from time to time.We’ll all I could say that it was between two people. One was outstandingly good looking while the other looked like absolute shit. There should be no confusion on who is who.Anyway, I went back to the hotel office to grab some of the paperwork to do at my house. I turned on the tv in the office room.'Good evening ladies and gentlemen, yesterday at 1am in the bar on the Egoless high way the Black Hunter strikes again. The police and detective on these cases are work
Reina's Point of ViewYes, call me crazy.I burned down my own house and hid behind the bushes to makes sure nothing remained.There was nothing remotely special about the place. No memories. Nothing. No significance in my life so why not?I went back to the hotel and stayed at the penthouse in the hotel. Might as well do the killing do the assassination hit tonight then. I took my laptop and researched the guy.I then found out where he would be tonight. Play boy and very extremely popular in Dip and Drinks. The infamous bar for manwhores.Perfect for manwhores but also perfect for criminals.Risky and troublesomeBut I love trouble; gives me the edge that no man or woman has ever given me.I needed something perfect for the seducing part.Bingo.A short silver dress with silver heels and a light denim blue jacket over.I would be able to snatch attention into minutes after I enter the club. I took my car and headed towards the club.I spotted my target and saw his eyes trail across
Jax’s Point of ViewI was on the phone with Angelo when she was dragging me out of that stupid dirty burrito shop. Despite the shop looking infested with pests, the burrito itself was nice. It seems to have a delicious taste no matter how much the presentation sucked. She pulled me towards her while giving me her phone to take photos.All I could hear was Angelo’s voice on the other side but my mind was focused on her. Her jet black hair was the same coconut scent it always was. Her dark brown skin glowed effortlessly. She was perfect in every sort of way. I took photos in every angle, capturing her gorgeous beauty. I could stare at her all day and never get bored; she would always hold my heart in her hands. She could tell me to do something and I fucking would. She literally owns me. She owns every part of me.I cut the phone on Angelo and moved towards her. I sent the photos to my phone before handing her phone to her.“God, the view is perfect,” she sighed under her breath. My eye
Reina’s Point of ViewAs soon as the doorbell rang, there was a gun pointed at Narc’s face and I instantaneously drew out my gun. I looked up to meet one of the most well known criminals in the world.Harlow River Cortez. The woman, who rules most of Europe and South America, has men trembling at the sight of her. Her grey eyes bore onto Jax’s, serious and solemn; if she wanted to she could kill everyone. Started her own legacy in Mexico with the cartel, she then expanded to multiple countries and powerful men bowed down to her both willingly and in fear. Honestly, in the mafia world, she is the most powerful man and everyone knew not to mess with her because she gave no damn to excuses, no hesitation to castrating and no fucks to someone’s worth.France was her territory and whether or not we got the permission from her, we would be killed. So the next few seconds with the wrong words would only cost us our life.“Cortez, lovely to see you again.” Jax stated calmly.“Want to tell me,
I had one chance to win her over and give her a reason to forgive me. I know that she would never fully forgive me and to me that was completely understandable. She owns every single part of me whether I liked it or not. She manages to cause a whirlpool in my mind, only focusing on her, I love her too much to ever let her go.She fell asleep slowly after our conversation in the car, leaving me to my thoughts. I only had two nights and three days before leaving and there were way too many activities to do in the city of love. I had a couple planned already. By the time we reached the airport, she was deep asleep and I had no plan to ruin her peace so I carried her into the private plane and laid her in her seat while, I took the seat next to her.The plane ride went quite quickly and it was around 2 in the morning when we landed in Paris and as no surprise Reina was still fast asleep. She could probably sleep for 15 hours and still want more sleep. I carried her into the hotel and laid
“Language sweetheart and the date will be in Paris”.My mouth gaped open while a couple of butterflies swarmed in my stomach with his gruff voice nicknaming me ‘sweetheart’. Paris. He wanted to take me to Paris: the city of love, the city of romance and the city of everlasting sex. If he wanted to do anything like that with me, it would have to be after I’m dead and in the afterlife because no way in hell would I let him touch me. Not even with 10 foot pole.I hate how he made me feel but I wouldn’t let him come near me again. Not after what he did. He killed me and felt no remorse. Well, not until he realised I wasn’t the rat and it was his own best friend.“I am not going to Paris with you because I have a job over here and some paperwork to do,” I stated plainly and turned on my heel making my way back into the house, but before I could make it three steps his hand grabbed my hips, forcing me to look him in his eyes.“Too late, baby. I’ve already bought some McDonalds chicken nugge
Jax’s Point of View“Dress fancy but not too fancy, Nem. It’s a date,” I said while leaning into kissing her forehead and then left for the door. Heading back to my office, I found Serephina standing outside.“You asked her on a date?” she asked me raising her eyebrows.“Not that its any of your bus-““No, you stupid cunt. It is all of my business if it involves my best friend since you fucked up big last time,” she interrupted giving me a stare.“Ok, fine. Yes I am taking her on a date. Happy?”“No because I want to organise it with Ade,”“Ade?” I questioned.“Adelina, dumbass,” she rolled her eyes.“No, I want to organise it,” I declared in a definite tone.“Ha, fat chance, loser!” she scoffed while turning away. Soon, she realised that I wasn’t joking at all and turned to me. Paused and looked me dead in the eye.“Hold on, you’re not joking,”“No.”“Ok, but take notes mentally while we walk,” she said as she carries on walking in the way to her office, “She hates the colour pink. H
Chapter Ten – ElevatorReina’s Point Of ViewMy eyes fluttered open when the sunlight blinded my eyes through the curtains. I swear to God, I just want to kill myself whenever I can never sleep in. It was honestly the worst thing that could happen to me. Ugh fuck, I’ve got a headache already. I barely even drank anything. No, wait. I did drink quite a bit. I pulled the duvet over my face, forcing the light out of my face. The duvet felt so soft and nice and was the dark interior shade that I loved. Hold on. Pause. My house only has a light interior since I couldn’t find one with a dark interior. Where the hell was I?I instantly shot up from the bed, squinting across the room. The grey lamp which gave a white light, the bedside wardrobe which was carefully organized, and the ginormous bed that I slept in were the same as the room I slept in when I lived with Jax. No. I did not sleep with him and that was for certain. Memories of last night faded back into my knowledge. While graspi
Jax’s Point Of ViewShe grabbed my tie making our eyes hold contact, “Just because I don’t want you, doesn’t mean that I don’t have a dire urge for sex? If you won’t give it to me, someone else will,”The thought of someone else touching her made my blood boil while adrenaline pumped viscously through my vein. It shrouded over my judgment and the only thing I could think about was her and me together. Unbearable. The sexual tension was unbearable; I couldn’t let myself act out and go out with her when that would be too fast and that would hurt her. Her hands gripped harshly on my tie only turned me on more. Reminding me of our past, she wanted power. All the power that she could get in the world but with me. I provoked her power belittled it but when truly her powers were hidden under the most infamous name in history ‘The Black Hunter’. I would be lucky and honored to have her by my side but all that was on my mind at the moment was how much I wanted to hear her say my name while ha
He thinks he can buy his way back into my heart. It just made my blood boil; he can’t have thought that he could do that but yet there was tenderness. A tenderness that warms my heart when he kissed my hand. A gentlemanly side of him that I would doubt anyone other than me had seen. He said he would support my dreams and giving me that amount of land did way more than that. It could provide me my legacy and I would be known and don’t even get me started on the amount of money I could have.Whether he was being sincere or not, life goes on, and right now I had to go to my office to think about what the hell I was going to do? As I made my way upstairs, I ran into Adelina and Seraphina who was at the receptionist’s office gossiping.“Hey, what are you two gossiping about?” I asked them as I gave them a look. Both of them turned to each other.“Someone just went into your office and locked so we can’t even check who it is. So instead we are playing the guessing game,” Ade replied softly,
Jax’s Point Of ViewI own 100,00 hectares of New York. My name was the most powerful here and people fear me but she doesn’t. She never has and never will. Challenged me at every single point that I had seen her; she was a game that I shouldn’t have played. I should have resisted her but I didn’t. The temptation befell me more than you would think. She was worth better than anyone that I had ever met. So, why not make her my equal in everything. What better way to start it than giving her equal power over my land. She’ll deny it for the sake of her pride. It exceeds beyond her. She’ll never admit that she desired the land that I was willing to offer but in front of her board members, who do have the company’s best interest in heart. There was no way she could refuse. So, I organized a meeting, there and then when she left me at the receptionist. In case you couldn’t realize, I’ll do anything to win her back.“Mr. Martinez, what can I do for you?” Rufus, the head of the board.“I have
