"a business party?" how do you have a business party within the drug lord community?
"Yes, a business party" he replied
"Don't take this the wrong way, but how do drug lords have business parties?" I finished making pancakes and placed them on a plate with some scrambled eggs for Damon and myself. He laughed as I placed the plate in front of him
"Babe, Im a business man too" he took a sip of coffee "I own a merchandising business, it was handed down to me from my father" I guess I shouldn't be surprised that I don't know what he does, however I vaguely remember him mentioning a business before
"So you own a bar, a merchandising business AND you're a drug lord?" I tried my best to not sound as dumbfounded as I actually am
"Yes" he smiled before taking a bite of his food "there's still a lot you don't know about me princess" he's right, I still have a lot to learn about him yet I feel like he knows everything about me already
I sat down next to him with my food in front of me and began digging in, I hadn't eaten all morning and at this point I'm starving
"so will you come with me?" he smiled over at me, watching me stuff my face. I made sure to swallow my food before responding
"of course" I spoke after gulping down my hardly chewed food
"Good, why don't you have Alisha come over so you two can go get you a dress for tomorrow night" I'm assuming I have to dress nicely and I don't have a dress for that now
"That would be great!" we both finished up our food and Damon took the plates to the sink "I can wash those" I spoke as I pulled my phone out to text Alisha
"Its okay, the cleaning ladies will be here around noon"
"you have cleaning ladies?" holy crap this man has money
"Yeah, they come every day at noon" he spoke so nonchalant
"Well okay then" I laughed as I typed my message to Alisha
Alisha! I need you to come shopping with me!
"Do I just give her your address?" I paused in the middle of my text
"I can send a driver for her if you want" hearing that I went ahead and sent the text to see if she would be up to coming with me in general
He laughed when a surprised expression showed on my face
"Get used to it baby" he came around behind me and kissed my upper shoulder
Shopping? Of course!!
"Ill send the driver" he spoke when he saw Alisha's response
"Damn he's rich rich" Alisha whispered in my ear as she hugged me, causing me to laugh a bit
"You're telling me" I whispered back
"Good to see you again Alisha" Damon walked up behind me
"Likewise" she smiled back "I like him" she whispered to me, loud enough that he heard her
"My driver will take you guys to the store, I have some things to take care of here" he kissed my cheek
"What if h-" I began to speak but he knew what I was going to say
"Tony is going with the driver, they're going to be stay close to you at all times" he spoke softly in my ear so that Alisha wouldn't worry
"Am I able to tell her?" She's my best friend..I have to tell her
"If you trust her, I do too" he smiled
"So where are we going?" Alisha finally spoke up after the awkward conversation Damon and I were having
"The driver will take you to the Versace store, you should find something nice there" again he spoke so nonchalantly
"As if we could afford that" Alisha spat out in laughter
"Its on me" he winked as he handed me his card again giving me a kiss on the cheek
"Dame I can buy something myself from a different store" I mean is he crazy!? Versace!?
"I want you to wear the best tomorrow, you can always go somewhere else after you buy a dress for tomorrow"
"Okay enough talking, lets go!" Alisha has always been the kind of person to love shopping, Tony walked up to us at the front door
"Are you ready Miss Jones?" He spoke up, I could tell he was eyeing Alisha
"Call me Rachel Tony, and this is my best friend Alisha" I gestured to my left to where Alisha stood
"Nice to meet you Alisha" he extended his hand out to take hers, he kissed the back of her hand
"Nice to meet you too Tony" I could see her blushing
"Ill see you when you're done babe" Damon pulled me to him and pushed his lips onto mine..I wasn't used to PDA, Tanner never liked it
"Thats the one Rachel!" Alisha screeched as I walked out of the dressing room in a stunning gold backless dress
"I think so too!" I admired myself in the mirror, it hugged my body beautifully and flared out a little bit above the knee
"It looks lovely on you" the woman that works here made her way to where we were "you know that dress was made for the model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, people loved it so much that a few more dresses were made" this thing must be expensive
"She'll take it!" Alisha announced before I could ask how much it was
I took the dress off and handed it to Alisha for her to take to the front desk and slipped into the simple outfit I came in
A cute white cropped top with olive green form fitting cargo pants and white sneakers

"That'll be $3,395" she said with a smile on her face, I handed her the card Damon gave me "I'll need to see your ID"
Oh crap
"That's my boyfriends card" I looked over at Alicia who looked just as worried as me
"It says Rachel Jones on it ma'am"
What?
I quickly reached into my purse and saw that my card was in my wallet, how could that card have my name on it? Without saying anything else I handed her my ID, she glanced it over and then swiped the credit card.
"Perfect I'll just need a signature" she handed the receipt over to me and it really did say my name on it. I quickly signed it and handed it back to her
Tony took the dress from my hand and followed behind us
*not a super interesting chapter but I think it was necessary for whats to come*
