We make our way to the center of the dance floor and start dancing. Jazzy grabs my hand and turns her back to me while placing my hands on her hips. "Just move with the flow!" She yells back to me. With that, she starts twerking and grinding on me. I stay still not knowing what to do and shocked that she started dancing on me.

She laughs out loud when she sees me unmoving, "Relax bestie I don't bite." Didn't she just fuck a girl about a week ago? Ah to heck with it. I grip her hips and start grinding with her. She roughly presses her ass to my front while grabbing her tits.

She's feeling this song a little too much.

She stands straight and runs off to a waiter and comes back with 4 shots, two in each hand. "Drink these, it'll help you loosen up." I down all 4 and get back to dancing. Tipsy and all, we start dancing again. She turns towards me and lifts her right leg up on my hip. I grab her right thigh to keep her leg up as we grind onto each other.

She starts kissing my neck as I grab her ass. Looking up I see a group of guys on the staircase staring at us, but one stands out the most. He's in the center and authority radiates off him, it's obvious. He stares me dead in my eyes as Jasmine continues grinding on me. He's dressed in an all black suit and tie. He has his arms folded and I can see that he's wearing an expensive looking watch on his wrist and a couple of rings. There's tattoos on his hands so I assume they go all the way down his arms. I'm a sucker for sleeve tattoos. He has black curly hair and a hard straight cut face. He continues staring at me, so I stare back. Jasmine starts giving me a hickey as the guy tilts his head to the side, as if he was a parent and I just got caught up in a lie. As he tilts his head, neck tattoos are shown. Damn he's fine.

Jasmine notices that I stopped dancing. "What's the matter?" She asks with worry in her eyes. Her eyes follow my eyesight and land on the mysterious man. "OH SHIT!" People turn to look our way as Jasmine starts apologizing for her outburst. I snicker and look back at the staircase to find all the men gone. Well that's not weird at all.

"Do you know who the fuck that was?!?!" Jasmine asks me as she pulls me to the bar. "No but I'm sure you do, considering your reaction when you saw him."

"One shot of vodka," Jasmine tells the bartender, "oh that was only just THE FREAKING ITALIAN MAFIA KING." Jasmine exaggerates loudly.

"Shut the fuck up," I whisper shout. The bartender eyes us skeptically. "Sorry she's had too much to drink tonight." I say to the bartender, referring to Jasmine. He nods his head moving on to the next customer.

"How do you know him?" I ask. "Pfft who doesn't know him?" I stare at her with a straight face. "Oh right. Well he's known for killing basically- not just killing in general but also his killing methods. The guy is so brutal and deadly that most people don't even look him in the eye. Which isn't hard because the guy never pays attention to anyone but his crew. He should pay attention to me. He's so sexy he can-" I tune her out and think to myself about what she just said. He kills people? And not only that but he pays no attention, shows no interest, and looks at no one? Then why was he staring at me?

My train of thought gets interrupted when Jasmine phone rings. "Hello?" She sits as the person talks on the other end of the phone. A few seconds later panic takes over Jasmine's features knocking all the alcohol out of her. "What's wrong?" I ask worriedly. She immediately hops up and grabs her purse as tears fill her eyes. "My dads in the ICU." She says before running out the club. I chase after her to see her hopping in a car and speeding off. Who the fuck was that? More importantly, what happened to her dad?

We took an uber here because we knew we were going to get drunk. The sad part is, I put my phone in Jas purse so she could hold it....which unfortunately means I'll be taking the bus back to my house. The last time I checked the time it was 9:15 and that was before I walked out the club. It takes a good 30 minutes to get to my house via bus. Hope gets dropped off at 10 which means I'll have a good 15 minutes to change out of these clothes and get ready to get out of here with Hope.

Walking to the bus stop I hear talking as I pass an alleyway. I don't look down the alleyway and continue walking until someone yells out something. "Ayo slutty Kaliyah." Of course it just had to be Alex and his friend Josh. Ignoring them, I continue my path until I hear running. I turn to see them right behind me charging full speed at me. I turn back around to start running but Alex steps on my skirt causing me to fall and bust my lip. "Where you thought you was going? Old man ain't here to save you this time is he?" Alex asks as him and Josh laugh and pick me up, each holding tightly onto an arm.

Please not again.

They drag me back to the alleyway as I kick and scream. Alex slams my back into the brick wall causing me to hit the back of my head. He then covers my mouth with his free hand, "Listen here bitch. You're going to shut the fuck up and give me and Josh what we want just like the whore you are." At this point I'm crying and still kicking. Josh elbows me in the head and I start to see black dots. "Yeah that shut her up." He says.

Please. Please not again.

Alex uses his left forearm to hold me up as he starts unzipping his pants. He pulls himself out and starts pulling down my panties as I continue to resist and attempt a scream. This is definitely going to bring the nightmares back.

God help me please. Not again I'm begging you.

As if immediately answering my prayer, 3 shots go off and Alex and I fall to the ground. Looking at him I see him with his head covered but no gunshot wound. I immediately check myself after to make sure the bullet didn't hit me instead. I see no blood and look over to find Josh bleeding out from his neck struggling to breathe.

5 guys walk up. Two of them goes to Alex while the other two goes to pick up Josh's dead body. The shooter walks to me as I am still trying to steady my breaths before I pass out. As he gets closer his face comes to view and I recognize him as the mysterious guy from the club...The mafia king.

He bends and picks me up bridal style while shushing me. He smells nice and I find my breath steadying out and my body relaxing to the sound of his heartbeat. He walks towards a black 2021 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye and places me in the back seat. I start getting sleepy as he cranks the car up and it roars as it comes to life. Should I be going to sleep right now? That's not smart is it? Ah to heck with it I'm sleepy. I drift off as he drives us off into the night.

I need to get me one of these cars.
