Chapter Ten
DOMONIC
Glancing down at my phone I see I’ve been here for an hour and fifteen minutes. “Right. Go ahead, I have to get out of here too.”
After locking up my office, I am stopped at the door by Margo in her glittering silver stars and heavy make-up. Her body is on full display, and I mean full display. After all, she works here at the club and brings in a lot of customers. But I notice right away that for the first time since meeting her, my dick didn’t so much as twitch.
Damn it.
“Where are you going?” She asks, grabbing my arm to prevent me from hedging out the door.
“I’m busy Margo. I already told you that. Get out of my way.”
“Wait!” She purrs. “What about tonight? Can I come over. You left me pretty unsatisfied last night. Too busy with that bitch to take care of me the way you should.”
I have to laugh. This dumb bitch. “Margo, you are not my girlfriend. You know that. It would be best if you stopped coming over until the girl is gone.”
She narrows her eyes at me, crossing her arms under her heavy breasts. “What? Why?”
“Don’t worry about why. Just stay away for now.” Then I leave without so much as a look back.
When I arrive in front of the boutique, I am floored by the sight of Draven across the street laughing with Paul.
Motherfucken traitors. All of them.
DRAVEN
“There’s my ride.” I stand up and grab my bags the moment the Hummer appeared across the street.
Paul smiles, “Okay. So, I’ll see you tomorrow night then.”
I nod, “Yup. I’ll be waiting.”
I cross the street, rolling my eyes at the black windows of the Hummer.
You’re late douchebag.
