Lyon
Chapter 14

I left her in the office after stealing one more k**s; her f*****g mouth, Is magic. She tasted like berries, and the innocent way she played her tongue around mine made me want to run away with her somewhere for a week.

I had barely made it to the shop when I heard Jennifer’s annoying voice.

The f**k is wrong with the Rossetti clan today? Two of them in one day was a cocktail for trouble, and I knew she’d sent her piss-ant of a brother over here earlier, like he was supposed to scare me.

The Rossetti’s were one of the premier families in the state, old money and lots of it.

The thing is, my family was older and had bucket loads more, whereas the Rossetti siblings thrived on that shit and used it for their evil little games, but I could give less than a f**k.

Money in the bank was all well and good, but if your heart was black as soot it didn’t mean shit. I wish I’d known that shit before I’d wet my wick in that Asp. Poisonous bitch.

She came strolling into the shop with her designer wear and the overpowering stench of her perfume. Less is more bitch, didn’t anybody ever tell you that?

She bypassed my guys who were all giving her the stink eye. They hated her almost as much as I did, seeing as how she’d tried to destroy our crew with her jealousy bullshit.

Looking at her now I wondered what the f**k I was thinking for those months I’d been in her clutches. Thank God I’d seen the light before it was too late.

“Well-well, Colton, who’s the mousy little tart you have keeping office these days?”

I didn’t even bother to answer her scuzzy a*s. Why the f**k should I, and who the f**k was she to ask?

“I see you still insist on getting dirty with the hired help.” Every last man had his middle finger up before she was finished with her little insult.

I grinned in her face knowing how much she’d hate that shit. She really thought her shit didn’t stink, but I have to keep an eye on her. Her vindictive, narcissistic a*s could cause trouble, and I’d rather she directed that shit at me than my guys.

“What can I do for you Jennifer, and make it quick I’ve got shit to do.”

“Did you think you could just throw your little mouse in my face without paying the price, and in front of all our friends?”

“Bitch are you off your meds? What the f**k are you talking about, we’ve been quits for months…”

“That’s just a little blip. Everyone knows we belong together. Our families are, like, the leading families in this town. Who’re you going to marry, the sheriff’s daughter?”

She laughed at her own little joke.

“He’s the chief, and it’s none of your business. The f**k!” Bat f*****g shit crazy is this one.

She checked out her manicured nails as she lobbed her next volley.

“Let’s just say the chief and his daughter might not like the repercussions if she gets in my way…”

I was in the bitch’s face before she blinked, and her eyes flashed with fear before she hid it again.

Yeah bitch, remember who the f**k you’re talking to.

“Jennifer, you go anywhere near her and I’ll end you.”

“You wouldn’t dare, my brother…”

I laughed off her half assed threat.

“You think you’ve seen the worst of me, you haven’t seen shit yet. Touch one hair on her f*****g head and you’re done.”
