Jane's p o v

When I turned back to Papa, he had fixed his face with a smile, his thick hand outstretched to me.

Emily appeared from nowhere and politely pulled the pregnant purse from my grip.

I hope I didn't get this girl in more trouble. She had taken her time to inform me of the programm and still I payed no attention to the party and forgot it was time for the dance.

As I strolled up the aisle with Papa's light hold around my wrist, I couldn't help but perceived the man's displeasure. The way he had said it. I hated that word as much as it sacred me. Why hadn't he just said that I forgot to follow the order of the program instead saying I failed to.

It was scary coming from him. Had I embarrassed him? Who cares? I didn't fucking ask to be here!

I straighten up my face as I near the space that was reserved to be the dance floor.

He lowers his hand carefully on my waist, maybe he was a trying to avoid contact with my bare back. Everyone else takes their partners but Papa and I don

    JANE My hands were constantly tapping at the table as I watched the clock. It was already a few minutes to midnight. Quinn should've been back by now. I paced back to my room and slithered up my bed, hugging my legs. When my eyes fell back to the reading table, they lingered for a while. I'd probably wake up to meet him sitting up there in the morning. Watching me.But he wasn't.The door pushed open and Emily hurried in, packing up my curtains for the late morning.Something didn't feel right. "Is Quinn back?" I asked."No ma'am," She said quickly and hurried into the bathroom to get my bath ready.I shake my head, getting up. "Why isn't he back?" "I don't know, ma'am. It's not in my place to know. He's usually away this much... Sometimes," she bends down to fix the bed sheets, her bob hair falling down her face."If something happened to Quinn, tell me!" She stood her face tightening suddenly."El jefe is a strong man. Nothing would happen to him," She said that she was ass

    QUINNVenice pulls over beneath the sky’s blackened canopy, near the flickering streetlights. I drop my hoody and step out, my movements slow, until I slid into the seat beside her.“I bet I never asked you this before,” she said, eyes forward. “You sure about this?”“Yes.” I cock my pistol and her gaze linger on me with clear readable doubts. “You found this man for me. Shouldn’t I be the hesitant one?”She exhaled. “Yeah. He’s the one. That’s Igor. But I’ve never seen you hunt someone down for someone else. Rather people do it for you.”“He wronged me,” I said, pushing the gun back into my pocket and pulling my hood up. “I told you before.”“You’re doing it for that girl, aren’t you?”I bit down on my lip for a few seconds before reaching across her side of the door and pulling it open. “I owe you one, V.”She shrugs. “Nope. You only owe me my balance.” She stepped out of the car.I reached for my pocket and stretched out a card to her. She stands eyeing it for some seconds."Have M

    JANE As the coffee steamed up in my face I rubbed my temple slowly. It was still very early with nothing but the warm lights slipping through the kitchen windows.I took a sharp sip of my coffee and pushed the cup between my hands laid flat on the table.Just then, another pair of hands slides forward at each side of my arms and I feel Quinn's warmth behind me."Sneaking up to drink?" He murmured."It's just coffee."He leaned back, heading for the fridge in matching cardigan and joggers. He returns with two bottles of water and sits opposite me."So, the meeting from last night... Have there been other news?""Well, neither of us have spoken yet but I'm pretty sure there'll be. Soon," a bottle squeezes in his grip. "You amazed me again - you did really great last night.""I'm good," I raise my cup to him. "at what I do.""Except you almost ruined it in the end.""Ruined it? I just had a drink and the next thing you bundled me out. What's the point of going to the club if I can't dr

    QUINN"I'm gonna have to ground you now," I said, breaking out of her spell and drawing back."And how would you do that?" She staggers to her feet. "Lock me up in here and make sure I read twenty books in two days?""That'll be fair."She giggles and continues drawing close to me. "What if I make it up other ways?" Her hands slide slowly across my sides and her lips stand before mine. "Did you really think anything was gonna happen with me and that Mateo guy?"I pushed my mouth to her ear. "You wouldn't cause you know you have me to come home too and I'm just enough.""Oh, please!" She pushes me off and steps past me. Like a bodyguard, I'm turning around to watch her.She stood still before the closet, and stopped tugging at her sleeves."I wanna undress! Are you just gonna stand there and watch too?"I don't move an inch. She sighs in defeat and walks back to me. Standing with only a little space between us, she turns around and sweeps her curls to the front. "You might as well j

    QUINN“You vouch for him?” Vetrova nods towards me.Lucia’s gaze didn’t waver. “Of course. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t.”She lifted the third glass to her lips, sipping slowly while I watched her from the corner of my eye.“Manuel Rodrig’s house is a citadel for the Family,” she continued calmly. “And I have his support.”Her hand slid onto my thigh. “We have his support.”“Now imagine,” I folded my arms and leaned forward, resting them on the table, “approving this alliance and having me in this circle. It's just like having Rodrig, himself. Lucia's with us - Rodrig's with us.”“Liability, No?” Lucia asked lightly, reaching for the glass Mateo just re-filled at the center of the table for her. “Asset, Yes?”“I control the highest branches of underground channels in the country,” I added. “Imagine the progress - for all of us.”Vetrova stroked his beard slowly. “You do have a point, Quinn. Your power matters.”“All power does,” I replied evenly, leaning back as Lucia pulls the glas

    QUINNI stepped out of the Jeep and held the door, Lucia’s voice pulling me back just before I shut it.“You sure I shouldn’t come yet?”“No.” I slid my black shades over my eyes. “If things go well, you might not need to come at all.”“You need me there,” she murmured, but not moving an inch.“Let’s hope I don’t.”I shut the door and headed into the clubhouse with only Mario behind me.If I had my way, I wouldn’t bring her to places like this. I didn't have these worries till now. These men weren’t enemies, of course. But that’s what I’d thought last time.She’d been quiet lately. Avoiding my eyes. Speaking only when I asked. That night I wrapped her in my arms after forcing her to talk about her father. I thought she’d finally found comfort in my arms. But then she pushed me away, as if angry, unsettled - like she hated how easily I’d cracked her open. Refusing to succumb to affection I didn't have but was willing to give. As if the affection frightened her more than my violence.Tw
