Heart of a Gun (Book one)

Secrets Within The File

I can feel the warmth of the sun on my face, I roll out of bed and rub my eyes to get all the evident disgust out of them. Then I go over to my dresser and grab a shirt, pants, a jacket, and a pair of shoes. I grab a silky pink spaghetti strap tank with some black ripped jeans, a matching Gucci belt, and a black cropped leather jacket. To conclude the look I slip on a pair of dark grey wedge ankle boots that have three buckles across the front of them.

After I've gotten dressed I head downstairs with the file in hand going to the kitchen, where the boys are sitting and I slammed it down on the island.

"What the hell is this!!?"

"How the hell did you get that file? It was in a secure place."

He stands up immediately walking fast towards me, I walk backwards just as fast to try and find an escape from him but I end up with my back against the wall. I panicked as he slowly inches nearer to my face, as he closes in on me I could feel his heated breath on my cheek. Once there's little space between us there's barely enough room for me to take a deep breath, as he leans in even closer to leisurely whisper in my ear.

"How did you get the file?"

I can see that his eyes have started to trail, leading down to my chest.

"Those are NOT my eyes."

After his eyes snap up and reconnect with mine he retorts back.

"Answer the question."

"I will as soon as you move away from me."

"No, you're going to tell me here and now."

"Alright, all I did was pick the lock of your office, looked in your desk and found the file. It was that easy."

"I don't care how easy it was, that's my personal office no one goes in there but ME."

"I was curious. Is that a crime, BOSS?"

"It might be, have you never heard of the phrase curiosity killed the cat?"

"But satisfaction brought it back. Now it's my turn, why didn't you tell me all of the information in the file when we first had this conversation?"

"That's for me to know and you to find out"

"OH MY GOD, why can't I get a straight to the point type of answer from you? Jeez, Is this all the information?"

"Yes, that's all of it."

With that said he walked away with his head hidden, possibly thinking to himself. I stood there dumbfounded at the brief response that left me speechless. I wonder to myself if it's the truth or not this time.

Later that day, I spent my day swimming in the pool, also sun tanning under the rays of the sun soaking in its warmth. This is the bathing suit that I decided to wear.

When she got out, she noticed that her brother was hanging out with one of the guys from months ago, his name was Jagger...

"Hey, your curves are a seductive temptation."

As the guy says this while laughing with a smirk on his face, then her brother hits him in the arm to signal that, that's his sister. That is when she notices that the guy shouted something at her. She dries herself off, walks up to them and says...

"Here take my towel it looks like you need it more than I do, pretty boy."

I continue walking up to my room to take a shower, before I have a chance to I hear shouting from the living space. I run to see what the commotion is, when I get there he has the guy up off the floor by his neck yelling...

"You've just made the biggest mistake."

"What the FUCK is going on here?" I ask.

"I'm not entirely sure, he just came out of nowhere." Jj replied.

"Listen very carefully, because I'm only going to say this once. Talk about her like that again and I'll string you up with," he pauses to point at me, "that pretty lady's bikini. Are we clear?"

He slowly loosens his grip around the guy's neck so that he can answer.

"Yes sir." He mumbles while scampering away.

When the guy is out of the living space, I get a big glare from him and he tells me something that I'd never thought I would hear coming from his mouth.

"Go put something on already would you, you're distracting my men from doing what they are supposed to be doing." He says this while punching the wall next to my head, at that point I no longer had power over my thoughts.

"Do you think I'm afraid of you? Really, you think it's so easy being the only girl here NO! I'm trying my real hardest here to keep myself from blowing my top off, keeping myself from ringing your scrawny little neck every time I see you. I'm really sorry that your men can't keep their goddamn mother fucking eyes off me for two fucking seconds, just for me to get chewed out by you that I'm distracting them from doing their duty as your goons! Now if you don't mind I have somewhere to be." As I leave him there seemingly speechless.
