Taming Mr. Black

05. Naomi

Oh shit.

What did I just do? I can't believe I just slapped Killian's perverted friend. I stare at the three men, with Killian's perverted friend glaring at me, a murderous glare.

Maybe I shouldn't have slapped him. That was just over dramatic and he had it coming. He's a perverted dirty asshole. How dare he touch me? I have a rule about touching and God, I hate when men, especially men like Killian's friend, try to touch me. And he's also a jerk. Directly throwing it at my face that I was cheap and just pretending to play hard. As much as I hated what I did, because obviously I was gonna lose my job, Killian deserved more respect from me. I shouldn't have slapped his friend right next to him, that was disrespectful.

I turn on my heels and run out of Killian's quarters before I lose my head before losing my job. Debs sees me and tries to stop me, but I don't slow down. I rush straight to the elevator and press my floor button. The elevator opens and I quickly step out. Keiran stares at me as I rush through the crowd and past the bartop barrier.

" Naomi." Keiran calls my name but I ignore him, including the eyes of my fellow workers as I rush into the backroom.

What the hell did I just do?

My mind is filled up as I pull my phone out of my bag and there are countless missed calls and text messages.

" Oh shit. Charlie's birthday." I mutter, pacing around as I scroll down the countless missed calls from mom, Antonio, Rachel, even George.

" Naomi." Rita calls my name as she walks in. " Are you okay?" She further asks.

" Yeah." I answer absentmindedly as I book an Uber. It's past 12: am and hopefully I might get one at this hour of the night.

I grab my bag, ignoring Rita's presence like she's behind whatever stunt I pulled out there. I just wanna leave and go back to the safety of my home where men like Killian Black won't have to make my life hell.

" Sorry Rita, I'm just pretty exhausted right now." I say and walk past Rita to the private restroom to get change.

My mind is filled with so many things right now and Charlie's birthday that I missed. I feel like a horrible person. I totally forgot his birthday was the day I didn't work shift. I quickly change out of my work clothes, fling my bag around my shoulders and step out of the restroom and into Keiran who's standing right outside.

" What are you doing? Where are you going?" He changes his question when his eyes scan my change of outfit.

" Home. I'm gonna call you Keiran, I promise." I tap him on his shoulder and walk past him in a hurry.

I avoid Rita and the other workers's gazes as I walk out of the crowded club. The minute I step outside, I breathe in the cold midnight air. The inside of the club is hot as hell. I pull out my phone to check my Uber and it's close by, so I walk ten feet away from my boss's establishment before he asks men to find me and then they find me outside. I wonder what he's going to do to me. Definitely he's gonna to fire me, that's a fact. He might even make sure I don't get a job elsewhere just to make my life miserable.

That's a thing right? He can't do that right? Or he can? Fuck! Why didn't I think of that? Privileged arrogant fucking Billionaires. And why on Earth did he notice me today? I've been working for that arrogant asshole for over two years now and tonight happens to be the night he notices me. Really? Of all the nights it has to be tonight? Why did he even ask for my name? What's that supposed to mean? Maybe he had a gut feeling I would disobey him and somewhat slap his friend too. My name's just a constant reminder on how he's going to ruin my life.
