Jenalyn: Daring to Defy (#1)[Complete]

Chapter 25: Dane

Wednesday, 12:00 A.M.

"-But that's part of the punishment, Lil Bit. For both of us, for being stupid." I say, trying to keep myself neutral though my chest aches annoyingly.

Jena shifts uncomfortably, wiping the tears from her cheeks before letting a new set fill the wiped spots. "But you know I can't" she goes to say, but inturrupts herself to let out a loud sniffle. "You told me I'd never have to do that!"

I laugh to myself for a second, remembering the earlier days with her and how I'd told her as long as she was mine, I'd never pimp her out. That was before she decided to keep fucking me over for her own entertainment.

Still, I keep my cool and take a deep breath before responding to her. "You give yourself away, babygirl- I just make some cash for it because you insist on being 'mine.'"

Jena's eyes narrow momentarily but she's quick to fix her face. "I didn't suck Anthony's dick, Dane! I don't do that! And you promised, even if I got sent on a ru-"

Her words take a moment to sink in before they rearrange themselves in a way that makes my blood itch to boil with anger.

"What does that have to do with anything, Jenalyn." I say, rather than ask, as lines start to connect in my brain- urging the blood more. I stand to my feet as she wipes her cheeks again, taking a breath before continuing.

"Rob!" she practically yells at me, though the yell comes from a place of pain rather than anger. "You let him-"

I cut her off before she can continue, my mind able to fill in the spots she would had I let her continue. "No." I say, my blood already rushing at a mile a minute through my veins. "Don't go there, Lil Bit. I said-"

I can't even finish my statement. I don't even care to. I'm already halfway to the dresser where I'd placed my keys and takeout from Jena's favorite resturaunt. I grab both, shoving the doggy box into her hands before leaving the room and slamming the door behind me.

12:09 A.M.

Rob is surprised when I show up, barging through his door with a key I had made years ago and never had a reason to use before. I'm so pissed by the time I get here, I stride immediately to the couch where he sits beside Evelyn, and lay a hard punch to the left side of his face.

"What the fu-" he goes to say, only to be inturrupted by the hit itself before continuing. "The fuck did I do!"

Evelyn scrambles from the couch to the hallway, and though I'm usually more cautious of the things I say about Jena while she's around- I don't have a fuck left to give inside of me after the day I've had.

"Did you stick your fucking cock in my girl's mouth?" I scream at him as he pulls himself from the couch to stand across from me. I'm ready to lay another punch, but Rob intercepts- trying to hold my arm down as he grows defensive.

"You let me pay to fuck her, you fucking-" he snaps, only to be interrupted by my breaking his grip around my wrist.

"To fuck her!" I roar, laying a hit on his other cheek- this time drawing blood as the skin splits over his cheekbone. He falls back onto the couch again, but this time stays seated as he holds onto his bloody cheek. "-Not stick your dick in her fucking mouth!"

"I didn't know there was a God damned difference, Dane! Jesus Christ!" he's fast to respond.

I don't know if it's the anger laughing, or his stupidity inflicting the laugh but I can't help it when it escapes my lips.

"When you're taking care of my girls- and some fuck pays for an hour of sex... you gonna let them stick their dick in my girls' mouth, Rob?!" I ask in almost disbelief. It's gotta be the stupidity- though believe me the anger I feel right now is real.

Rob shakes his head, seemingly distraught for a moment before he tries to climb to his feet again. I push him back down though, I'm not doing this shit. "No!" he shouts defensively, "I'm sorry- I didn't know it was a big deal!"

I freeze in my tracks. Even the blood angrily rushing through my veins seemigly freeze as the words escape his lips. He's sorry..?

Where are the snarky comments about how she's a whore, and would excel at dick sucking if I grew some and put her up for it? Where is the sarcastic tone, and the snide remarks about the girl he's hated since practically day one..?

I take a moment to read his stare- too sincere for Rob, and definitely too sincere for Rob talking about Jenalyn...

"The fuck you mean, you're sorry?" I ask after a moment, letting out a breath I didn't know I held in and lighting a cigarette I'd pulled from my pocket.

Rob's face grows confused, but he's quick to respond. "I'm sorry, dude! I didn't know it wasn't a thing-"

I blow out a cloud of smoke, literally having to replay his words in my head to make sure I'm not going completely insane here.

He said it again...

"You're sorry?" I ask, trying to make sense of it in my head though something just isn't lining up right. "The fuck did you do to her that's got you sorry? What the fuck did she say to you?"

Rob's face grows even more confused, but I'm not buying it. My blood is already rushing through my veins again.

"What? You force your dick in my girl's mouth then wanna feel some type of way about her?" I snap after a second, pulling him from the couch with one hand just to deck him again with the other.

Rob doesn't say anything.

He doesn't say anything, and it pisses me off even more- because Rob would say something. Any other time, he'd make a slick comment about how I'm the only person in my feelings over some whore.
