Rebelle House

25. Don't Die For Me.

At Rebelle House 6 months later

When I came back to Juniper on my knees, I swore I wouldn't be disobedient anymore.

I swore I would do whatever if I could be supplied drugs, alcohol and that we moved Rebelle House somewhere else as Ronan's body was found with a bullet to his head with no witnesses but seen last having his men pick me (kidnap) but people have a very funny way of seeing things for what they're not.

Juniper already set out to have Ronan killed just called us even accepting my terms with also the penalty of not being punished on the account of not being pregnant anymore due to Ronan killing it.

The rest of the girls jumped ship, escaping, leaving off to some bus only leaving me as Juniper's slush fund.

So instead of four girls bringing all the money it was just me now...alone.

Couldn't blame anyone though, I chose this, I trapped myself in the one place I was so desperately trying to block out.

Now, Juniper and I are in Vegas. Brought her men. Saved up some cash and made business partners with a man named Hodge.

A middle aged man, around thirty one, not married and Junipers type. Rich. Hot. Psychotic.

I was the lead dancer now at his Vegas strip club called Euphoric with neon signs of women in nothing but lacy stockings.

Dancing every night, making suitors, getting high along with it all, the money kept rolling in.

Once Juniper made it known that Rebelle House was now in collaboration with Euphoric, her old clientele followed.

So it doubled since I was half of their favorite from the start.

Now where did that leave the Jorn's?

When they heard, Especially Chad, Will, Aero? They couldn't believe it.

Thought Juniper was threatening me again but leaving with no heads up, in the middle of the night, vanishing? I just figured they would get the hint and just leave me be.

It didn't happen that way for a little while until Juniper had to relocate our location just being more cautious but still staying in Vegas.

So, I'm basically a ghost to them.

Present moment

"Ayla, your hair? How do you get your hair so sparkly?" Zoe, one of Hodge's girls, asks while curling her rainbow extensions.

I show her the OG hair sparkle spray we used in Rebelle House being Juniper's go to for us.

"Nice, think I can borrow some?" She says while putting the curling iron down.

Tossing it to her, I nod, "Have it. I got more back at the apartment."

Smiling, she thanked me and I left to the main floor wearing floral lingerie that only covered tiny areas showing the rest, platform heels and glitter all over but just enough to not look like a damn cheap party favor.

Walking to the bar area, I ordered a gin and tonic with a side of white powder on the side as they're known for doing such things to keep the clients happy but are free to the dancers.

Something I should have told Chad to do, maybe the Jorn's and him would have made a lot more than what they were making when it was just selling out the back of the club instead of in.

"Cutie, how are you?" A new regular says kissing my cheek while ordering a beer.

"Regan, how are you?" I say snorting a line not caring who was watching as I was already known as the powder princess here.
