Bound

Chapter 4

H. Aaron. S.S.

  After leaving the bathroom where Alex and I had just had our encounter, I went back to the table she was previously sitting at to give my regards. "It was a very nice evening. Thank you for inviting me, but I have to go now." I spoke to Riley without sparing anyone else so much as a glance, though I could feel eyes boring into the side of my skull, willing me to look to my left, but I refused. "You just got here." He pouted. Riley and I have had a complicated relationship but seeing how Alex interacts with him makes me think dangerously, and I have to remember our past so that I don't act irrationally. 

  He was all over her, and I know we just met the other night, but there's something special about her, and I want her all to myself. She's different in every way possible and makes me want to do things I've never thought of doing with anyone. Man or woman. He can't have her. "I know but as you know, I'm a busy man. We'll catch up another time. Happy Birthday." I reached into my jacket pocket and pulled out a black suede box before handing it to him. "I hope you like it."

  With that, I walked away and out of the ballroom, and then the hotel altogether. My car was already sitting outside waiting for me to my surprise. My driver noticed my raised eyebrow as he opened my door allowing me inside the back of the limousine. "I knew you wouldn't be here very long sir." I nodded my head in understanding and thanked him. I really must be a very busy man for him to know we're always on the go. Maybe I should slow down. I'm not getting any younger, and I do get lonely sometimes. 

  My name and building my empire is what's most important to me though. I had a very rough life growing up, and I want to make it so that my children and their children are set for life before they're even born. In order to make that happen for later on, I have to make sacrifices now, whatever it may be. Including love. Despite that thought, I can't help but think back to Alex. Her curvy figure was perfect in every way possible, and her body fit so well against mine as if she was made for me. She's the missing piece to the puzzle that is my life, and I know that already just off of our brief encounters. Well the first night wasn't very brief, and just thinking about her naked body on display for me had my dick twitching in my pants. 

  The way her body responds to me and my touch made me feel so powerful knowing that I had complete control over her, and her pleasure. Me. Only me. I've never been so possessive over anyone, let alone someone I just met a week ago. That being said though, the thought of her pretty little mouth wrapped around another mans appendage had me ready to do the unspeakable. I have to relax. I took a deep breath and shook my head laughing at myself. I really am out of it. We pulled up to the warehouse and my door was opened for me a few seconds later. 

  This was one of my many places that I have to store my product and interrogate enemies that we've captured. I looked up at the building. It was very bleak and unappealing to the eye, but it served its purpose and that's all I needed it to do. I walked in and immediately was met with the stiff warmth that came with the old concrete building. The air was stuffy and caused me to have to try a little harder to breathe, but it wasn't too bad. As I walked further inside, the heels of my shoes clacked against the hard floor, and echoed in the silence. I mentally prepared myself for what I was about to do. It was all necessary for the vision that I had for my future.

  One of my men led me down a dark corridor, past palates of drugs that had yet to be cut and bagged to be distributed. We just got a new shipment in to replace the product we lost because of the mishap with TomTom that ultimately cost him is life. It was a loss for me on all ends. I lost my product, and in turn, my money. Not only that though, I lost one of my men. All of my men are important and valuable to me because they're my runners and fronters, my ears and eyes on the streets, and without them, I wouldn't be able to expand. I cannot solely be the one distributing my product. They bring in customers which could be their friends, neighbors, or even their family. They spread the word about the quality of my product, and most importantly, they distribute, and sell my product.
