Chapter 1 -
Frankie
He walked around the club checking everyone was doing their job this club was everything to him on the surface people saw the no nonsense attitude focused on business, it was sad the way women threw themselves at him, desperation flowed off them like the cheap perfume they wore, a sad truth he came to realise not long after he opened the club women with their ideas of bagging the rich bad boy in hope of tying him down I dont fucking this so they dont know me or even really want to they just see dollar signs and what it can get them, not what they think i may want or need.
Tonight felt different he could see the women dressed trying to impress the guys in suits who think they are something to get in their pants and wring their wallets dry, whores trying to be classy in dresses they can't afford to keep, guys like me see it everyday but some of these guys think they've hit the jackpot bagging one of these sluts. Un clenching my fists I could feel the ache in my knuckles for the fight last night I should have gone to the hospital they are more swollen than this morning fuck but the feeling of fighting, my bare knuckles hitting flesh gets my adrenaline pumping makes me feel alive thats why ive fough in the underground since I was 18 and how I came to buy this club but that is a story for another day.
Shaking my thoughts I notice a shady looking asshole huddled in a corner with a redhead whos shaking her head and trying to pull away from his hold on her arm.
I calmly walk over to check it out "You ok babe"she looks up with wide wild eyes "Y-Y-yeah I was just trying to leave" she pull her arm again "let me go""Hey" mr shady shouts as i get inbetween them "I just bought you a drink you can't leave, and who the fuck are you ?"He trys to push past me to get to her as she starts to back away "Dont think so slick""Who the fuck you think you are buddy, I bought her a drink she owes me a dance" he trys to grab her again"I dint wan tha drik asshooooo wha di yo mi drnk" she slurs "You ok there babe you drunk to much" she shakes her head a negative and starts to sway i gently take hold of her to stedy her as I grab my cell and the shady dude starts to back away"Dont fucking move asshole"
Shooting a text to Dane I grab the redhead round the waist"You ok babe" I reasure her, her eyes roll back in her head and she starts to go limp in my hold fuck.Dane moves through crowd I nod to the shady asshole "shake him down see if hes got drugs"He nods and grabs shady drags him off the the back as I pick up red and take her to my office laying her on the couch checking her pulse.I call the e.m.t and call jake on the door telling him send them to my office when they arrive and call the cops, fuck just what I need
Getting a text from dane saying the dude has pills in is pocket I tell him to keep him in store room the cops are on their way.
I walk over to her he hair is over her face I use my finger to gently move it away she is really pretty, beautiful even free of make up and just a hit of perfume is on her skin. There's a knock on my door I open it to see the emt I let them in and explain what I think has gone on they check her over and i grab her purse to get her i.d and get her to the emt truck "You coming" the emt guy says to me"Er yeah" what the hell, ill check she's ok then leave.
Er rooms are fucking depressing the smell, the people and the atmosphere don'tdon't really make ya wanna het better, ive been waiting outside her room wheile they run test apparently she has no emergency contact on file 'just fucking perfect' I did find out her name tho Leighton DeMarco if that ain't a hot chick name o dont know what is.
Mr Connors your friend is waking up. "Great"I walk in the small room she looks tiny on the giant bed I'd say no bigger than 5ft 1 and a hundred pounds wet 'shit', she looks up at me blinking "Do I know you" she whispers softly 'shit again'"No babe you were in my club getting shit from some asshole" She looks at me confused "What do you mean""I was doing a sweep of the place, saw a shady guy giving shit to you I intervened hes in the cop shop nowhe had drugs in his pocket""Oh my god, thank you""No problem babe just doing my job""Well thank you, erm I didnt get you name""Frankie"She smiles at me and boom, feels like ive been kicked in the chest"Thanks Frankie you saved me" she says quietly, I just squeeze her hand."Did you find out who the asshole is""Yeah boss, saw his licence, Mark Davis, lives in a shitty apartment block about 10 blocks from the club, hows your girl?"Fucker "she ain't my girl Dane"
He just laughs "she spoken to the cops yet""Nope she's just woke up, find out when he's out on bail""Got it boss man" I hung up and just stood ouside her room thinking what to do next when the nurse from earlier came by"Mr Conners, I dont want to worry your friend Miss DeMarco hasnt got any insurance I dont want to worry her after tonight events but she cant stay here if she cant pay and the police officer that was here said he would be intouch when she wakes up and knows what happened to give her statement"
Shit "ok ill talk to her""Thanks, I hate that part of my job"I just nod and knock on her door"you good babe" she just looks up at me with her big green eyes 'fuck'"Nurse just came by, you have no insurance"She nods and puts her head down"I quit my job when I found out my boyfriend was cheating on my with his secretary, we work for the same company, thats why I was at the club I was ment to meet him to get back the apartment keys, lost my insurance when I quit the job" Fuck what a asshole to cheat on a girl like her "it's ok babe ill take care of it""You dont have to do that Frankie, I'll call my brother Jude is a pain in the ass but he'll help me out, god knows he owes me"Well the way I see it I do, she was in my club getting drugged up by one of my shithead customers, im glad I saw what was going on it actually hurts to think what could of happened to a pretty woman like Leighton, an idea pops into my head
"You need a job babe?"She looks wide up at me and nods"Right need someone to do orders, book private partys, answering calls and shit I dont wanna do and when you can afford to pay me back were even, but if you like the job you can keep it sound fair?""Your offering me a job"
"Yeah need someone to sort shit I dont like, been doing it since the last girl quit I fucking hate it""Yeah ok ill do it but I dont wanna work the bar I dont like bars"Yeah I got the impression she hadn't been around to many places like the club before just for the fact she accepted a drink for some guy she didnt know."Youll be in the office babe no worries" "Thank you so much Frankie"
I think this will be a nightmare I cant stop looking at her, fuck shes hot has a rockin body, but quite and shy its fucking cute and cute aint sommething im used to, shes nothing like the women ive kicked outta my bed before, but I want her if I have to give her a job to get her I dont give a fuck"Right seeing as your good gunna settle up the bill and find out when we can break you outta this joint"She juat giggles fucking giggles yep totally fucking cute im screwed
