Phoenix

chapter n i n e. Noah Denvers.

"All you can offer her is a life full of danger and luxries that can only be recieved with a gun to a head." Reagan harshly whispered, trying to not wake up my angel from her slumber.It didn't take much for my blood to boil,but I decided to keep my mouth shut until they all spoke.My eyes settled down the line of my closest friends resulting in Oakley, he being the next one to enlighten me with his opinions.

"She's a little girl, she can't offer you nothing." Oakley quietly said, trying his hardest to not anger me, but he failed.My fist clenched as his words, Phoenix didn't need to offer me anything, but her attention...maybe love.I would be the one with the offers, the offers to make her the happiest girl alive, so what if she was a little girl? She can be my little girl.

"I don't know what to tell you...I can tell that you've already taken a huge liking towards the girl, so there is nothing I can say than to just be careful." Lucian said, making Reagan and Oakley's eyes widen.I only smiled, Lucian understood me which honestly is the reason he is my best friend, he was always understanding with me.

My lips turned into a glare when my eyes landed on a quiet Fox, who had a busted lip and black eye after what he did to my little girl. I was still angry with him, but kicking him out the group and house was a serious action that we couldn't take at the moment, so instead I taught him a lesson with my fist.

"I have only seen her from the back, a little glimpse of her face that was covered by her hair, so I can't such much on her,what age she looks like or what I can determine of the kind of person she is, so I say go for it.Sixteen year olds look like twenty year olds now a days, so go for it, just don't get caught." Fox said, not breaking eye contact.I nodded, liking his choice of words that he proably only said to get on my good side again.

What made Oak, Lucian and Fox jump in suprise was when Reagan slammed his fist down on the table,"That kid will bring not only you, but all of us trouble Noah." Reagan half yelled through gritted teeth.I quickly stood up, making the chair I was sitting in fall back onto the ground and I hovered over Reagan, showing him that I am the one with power.

"Don't forget who's the one maintaing you.I won't allow you to disrespect me especially in my house. Learn your place before I take it away from you." I spat at him, making him shrink back. He lowered his gaze in shame, my men only watching him slouch in his disgrace.

I stormed out the kitchen, taking long strides towards my bedroom and when I reached the bedroom I was ready to slam the door until I remembered and saw the angel in my bed.I quietly, slowly closed my bedroom door and began to tiptoe towards my king sized mattress. I looked down at the sleeping beauty in front of me and I felt all the anger in me slowly vanishing from my bones when the outside of my fingers gently stroked her cheek.I stroked her cheek for about five minutes until she began to stir in her sleep, proably sensing the tickling sensation on her face.

I laid down next to her, watching as she slowly pulled herself from the slumber she had fallen into.I felt a smile forming on my face when her sleepy eyes landed on me, it was only midnight meaning her golden locks were a mess, she was wearing pajamas that I made my maid buy earlier and her reflexes were slow.But, even like this she can beat any beauty queen pageant. She's so beautiful.

"Why are you awake?" She asked me in her morning voice that made me shiver.I couldn't even answer her, just wanting to look at her and proving my theory right-- that innocence shines brighter in the darkest of morning.

I couldn't help, but stare at her beautiful wide mossy eyes that screamed out different emotions, her red lips the color of cherry slightly parted revealing those little pearly buck tooths that screamed child, and even though her innocene was marching itself before me, my desire also showed itself.The plain white t-shirt hung dangerously low revealing cleavage, enough to drive me insane.I imagined them, filling up my hands as I whispered sweet dirty nothings in her ear as she breathless said my name.Her long legs were exposed to me through the tangled blankets, they looked smooth, perfect and mouthwatering. That bum of her's taunted me as well, but then again simply the desire I held for her was taunting me since the minute I laid eyes on her.
