Ross POV

I had to put her on a sleeping hold. It broke my heart to have to do that to her. Especially to her. I've done it to so many people before but I never thought I would do it to her! She was just so out of control.

I called Monique and told her to meet me here. I needed her now. She was out shopping but I needed her right away. I left Eden there sleeping and went to get ready for the party. I wasn't going to cancel it just because Eden had a bad day. I mean she had to understand that business was important to me. How else would I afford to live the way I do if I dont work? I can't do a simple job. I wouldn't be able to afford my lifestyle. She had to understand. Lucky for me Monique understood everything. She was becoming more of my go-to person while Eden was becoming a nag.
I don't know what was going on with her. She was never like this. She was always so calm and sweet I could talk to her about anything.

I never told her what I actually did. I never told her that all my family and I are part of a secret mafia-style world. We make our own supplies in our secret underground lab. I have a scientist, a chemist working on that day and night. Our supplies are sold all over the world. Shipped and sold. We have our own boats that take it to their destinations. We work with the local police to cover our tracks and pay them very well for it. That's how I am able to afford the way I live. I know is not right but it is the only thing I know. Eden will never approve of it. She only thinks I am part of a motorcycle gang. But in part is true. We do own motorcycles but is much more than that.

Monique, on the other hand, knows what I do and is okay with it. She lives a comfortable lifestyle as well. She is from a middle-class family so she is used to having good things. Eden is poor so she doesn't know what it's like to have nice things. She will never understand.

I went to my room got dressed in an all-black ensemble. Black like my soul.

I went downstairs to the party

I went downstairs to the party. I wasn't going to allow anyone to ruin my night. Yes, I loved Eden but she had to understand how things were. How I was. I wasn't going to change. I wasn't going to leave my life. I wasn't going to stop being the leader of something like this. People respected me. Looked up to me. Following my orders, my men are loyal to me. I became addicted to the attention and respect I got. I wasn't going to stop. I stood in place when I saw Monique with like 7 of her friends equally as gorgeous as her.
