Double Standards (Part 1)

A Stranger's Eye's

I watched as that amazing creature descended her private jet cocooned by her men. Obviously anyone could assume whoever these men sheltered was very important. However this amazing creature became a thorn in my side over night. Upon learning that she would be making a bid on this land, the land I seeked along with plans of ending Franz Gillo's life rubbed me wrong.

Laney Valor seems to always, and I do mean always put herself in the middle of danger. Fuck, my plans just went out the window as soon as I saw her sashay her delectable ass into this meeting. Ass I'd never forget. Watching as she had ever dick on hard in this room including mine, she swung her delicious body to Franz as he watched her with hunger in his eye's. Luckily my ink pen had a high intensified recorder on it and I was able to weed out their whispered words.

Yes, I would be at that club tonight. Miss Valor had another thing coming if she thought for a second I'd let her walk away with that land. I work alone now except for a few men I hire as needed. That land is exactly why I work alone. For year's I've known this deal was coming. For year's I've known that Franz has worked beside the Russians and my head is number one on their shit list. Faking my untimely death was the only way out. The Russians had gotten to close to killing me that day I went after Ela.

So yea, I went ahead and let them think they snuffed me. Laney would be safe, as well as my family. I was the one they wanted. Every since I killed their second in command at the age of eighteen, they couldn't wait to spill my blood.

Sounds crazy but I'm doing this for Laney as well. After I take out the Russians under this fake name I'm going by, I can return home and claim what's mine. Fuck, I miss her and it kills me knowing the pain I put her through. I'm always watching.

I watch every night as she comes outside spinning waiting for me to appear. I see her holding Conner's son or taking him outdoors to play. She will make a great mother one day. Then there was the night I allowed her to see me in that clearing from the viewing window. When she came running out I wanted to reveal myself so bad then Conner came along. Seeing the look on his face when he saw my brand of cigar was priceless. I wanted to shout "BOO" just to scare the shit out of him. I miss all them fuckers.

Yes, after I complete this mission Laney and I can live in peace without fear. The normal life at last.

Picking out a secluded table in a dark corner I awaited laney's arrival. When I finally spotted her I lost my shit. That tiny leather dress that barely covered her ass could have me on my knees with my face burried in her sweet spot. What surprised me though was I spotted my men near her. Conner and Marcus right by her side. Something wasn't right, she's clearly got something up her sleeve. This was no ordinary date.

Pulling Marcus by the hand, I watched as she led him to the dance floor. What the fuck. They may think I'm dead but I'd still kill a motherfucker. Marcus was grinding into laney's ass a tad to much for my liking. Yes, I will deal with him upon my return.

Then I witnessed a double whammy. Conner stood in front of Laney turning her into a Italian sandwich. Stuffed tightly between Conner and Marcus she whispered amongst them. That's when Franz appeared interrupting their dry humping disaster. I saw the look the three shared as Laney walked away with Franz. A fucking setup. I know those looks that signal be ready. The offer Laney made, the dancing with two men, all a hoax. It all came together now.

Reaching for my gun, I put it on the ready. I don't know Laney's plan but as long as I was here no harm would come to her.

Franz led her to a private booth where he wined and dined her. Laney would laugh, bat those fucking fuck me eye's, and purposely prop her dick sliding cleavage in his face.

Oh, when I got my hands on her, babydoll was going to get it.

She led Franz to the dance floor and put her magic all over him. The bastard even cupped her breast. Laney whispered in his ear and I assumed she asked if there was a private room here judging by the smile on his face and leading her off.

Seeing Laney look across the room and nod her head slightly at Conner and Marcus, I knew for sure shit was about to get real. Then several of my men came into view. Standing, I stuck to the shadows and made my way back.

When I got there it had already started, but not as planned. Franz had Laney forced against his stomach with his arm around her neck and a gun jammed to her temple. Fear clasped my heart as I aimed my gun on Franz. Before I could take action, Laney brought her hand to her chest and whipped my old knife out of her dress. She swiftly jabbed the blade in his side then fell to the floor while her men opened fire on him. By the end the only thing keeping Franz standing was bullets. When the guns ceased and Franz lay in his own blood Laney pulled the deed from his jacket. She rose covered in blood but smiling and waving the deed. But it was short lived as Franz's men busted in with guns a blazing. Conner shoved Laney to the floor and I watched as she crawled her way out. I stood like steel in the middle of the exit waiting for her to crawl to me. Once her head jammed into my legs, she looked up to see what she ran into. Looking down at her I smiled. Laney reversed her crawl into a backwards crab walk as a holy shit look marred her face.

"Hello babydoll".
