Tied Together [Book 2 In The Dom and the Daddy Series] ON HIATUS

Chapter 1: The first Meeting

Hello everyone!
This is the story of how Mew and Gulf met and fell in love.

If you haven't read
The Dom and the Daddy
I would highly suggest reading it first as it will help the flow of events.

This first chapter starts out 5 years ago when Mew and Gulf first met.
The story will flash back and forth between past and present but I'll give you a heads up so don't worry 😉

"Seriously why do I have to take out the trash? It stinks out there!" Mew complained for the millionth time.  Zee just smirked "You're the bouncer. It's in your job description.  You get paid to take out the trash!" He said with a smile and a shrug as he wiped down the bar. Rolling his eyes Mew said "I get paid to throw out the 'two legged' variety of trash.  This is just nasty!" He said as he grabbed the two black bags of garbage and headed toward the back door. 

"I'll be so glad when your loan comes thru and we finally quit hopping from one hell hole to the next and concentrate on building your dream club.  I swear the first person I hire is someone to take out the trash."Mew said as he reached the door. Zee just laughed "I should hear something by tomorrow and if all goes well we can close on that property uptown by next Monday." Zee said as he dried the shaker in his hand.  Mew sent up a silent prayer that Monday come quicker.

Zee and Mew had been working at this hole in the wall club for just under 2 months and as far as Mew was concerned that was 1 month and 29 days too long.  Mew knew that Zee was determined to learn anything and everything he could about the club and bar business from the ground up, he just never assumed that would include a gutter like this.

Having met in high-school Zee and Mew had developed an unshakable bond.  Zee had helped a soft-spoken Mew overcome his shyness and face down the bullies that had him targeted. While Mew had tutored Zee and helped the clueless jock graduate with honors.

Never wanting to be a victim again, Mew began strength training with Zee and joined a boxing gym near his house.  Zee had trained in both Aikido and Muay Thai since he was old enough to walk and specialized in joint locks and holds.  Together they became an intimidating pair.

Although Zee could be sitting in the lap of luxury right now running his dad's advertising agency with Mew as his head of accounting, he was determined to make a name for himself in the club scene.  Since graduating from college with a business degree, four years ago,  Zee had been dragging Mew from one bar or club to another collecting knowledge and saving money along the way. 

Zee's dream was to open a club that would draw in all manner of clientele with great music, a fun atmosphere and an amazing bar.  Mew was set on helping him achieve that dream so here he was taking out the trash.  Friendship can really stink sometimes.

The alley was mostly dark except for the 2 street lights at either end of the block.  Dumpsters for each business lined the narrow path on either side. The smell of wet garbage, stale beer and urine assaulted Mew's nose as he pushed open the back door.
