Married to my Ex's Father: A tale of revenge 61
The street outside the bar was half lit, half forgotten. The neon sign above the entrance buzzed like a tired insect, flickering between blue and nothing. Jason pushed the door open and stepped into a wall of warm air and noise.The place was crowded—packed enough that shoulders brushed when people turned, glasses clinked every few seconds, and the smell of beer and wood polish hung thick in the air. Rafe’s Bar was always busy after nine. It was the kind of place where people came to lose themselves, not talk about the things that broke them.Jason didn’t belong here tonight, but he didn’t know where else to go.Rafe was behind the counter, moving with the energy of someone trying to do five tasks at once—pour a drink, wipe the counter, yell at a drunk who kept knocking on the jukebox, and laugh at a joke someone shouted from across the bar. He was a big man with broad shoulders, a beard starting to grey, and eyes that always seemed to know too much.He spotted Jason immediately.One

"We'll have to let you go." Selene continued. Jason's jaw almost dropped to the floor. "No, please you can't fire me. I...I was only trying to protect myself.""I understand that. But keeping you here will be at the detriment of my business and I need you to understand that."Jason fell onto his knees clasping his hands in front of him, "please, I beg of you, just give a chance, I promise I'm going to be on my best behavior." He pleaded. Selene shook her head. "No, Jason, I'm sorry but I have to let you go.""Please, you can't do this. I really need this job. I need it to survive!" Jason tried to make her understand but she was adamant. "You know what, just give me a second." Selene said, she reached into her drawer and took out an envelope. "Here, have this." She said, "This should have been the amount I would have paid you after you'd worked for a month."Jason's eyes fell on to the envelope. He was devastated that his pleas had fallen on deaf ears. "Go on, take it." She probed

Jason hadn’t even been at Velvet smoke for a full week, yet the place already lived under his skin like a fever. The music. The strangers. The smoky air that clung to everyone’s lungs like something earned, not breathed.Tonight, he was working floor duty—running drinks, keeping drunks in check, helping the dancers to and from the stage. The dancers strutted on stage with glitter on their skin like constellations, and Jason, despite knowing better, kept catching himself staring too long at the ones who smiled at him.“Jay, table six!” Maria, the bartender, shoved two glasses into his hands. “They’re already pissed off—hurry.”Jason nodded, weaving through the crowd, keeping his shoulders tight to avoid drunken elbows. Velvet smoke always felt like it pulsed—like a heartbeat made of bass and lust.But tonight, something was off.Table six was occupied by three men in expensive suits. The kind of men who didn’t come to clubs because they were lonely, but because they liked to be kings

Logan gave her a wry smile, setting his drink down. He couldn't explain it but that very thing that drew him to hwe snapped. He didn't find her appealing that much anymore. "Any problems?" Lena asked after a an awkward silence had ensued between them. "Give me a minute my dear." Logan said, taking out his phone to dial the same number before he left the room. "Give me a minute." Logan repeated before he left the room. “Vince,” he said flatly when the line connected. “You there?”A low chuckle came through the speaker. “Always, Mr. Logan. How’s my girl treating you?”“Lena?” he said, his voice laced with disinterest. “She’s… fine. But not exactly what I had in mind.”There was a pause on the other end. “Oh? I thought she’d fit your taste. Soft voice, good figure, obedient.”“She’s decent,” Logan replied, swirling the whiskey in his glass, “but not clean. Not the kind I asked for.”“Clean?” Vince repeated, amusement creeping into his tone. “You mean untouched? Those are rare commod

The new city breathed money the way old cities breathed dust. Neon lights bled into the wet streets, painting reflections like wounds. From the top floor of the Horizon Tower, Logan watched the skyline burn with industry. Inside the conference suite, the air was a low hum of tension. Seven men sat at the table, all sharks in different suits—import barons, fuel smugglers, data brokers. None of them spoke first. Not while Logan poured his whiskey. The sound of liquid hitting glass was almost ceremonial.He didn’t sit right away. He let the silence stretch thin, the kind that made men clear their throats just to prove they were still alive.“Gentlemen,” Logan said finally, in a smooth voice, practiced. “We’ve built rivers of money. But rivers dry when the climate shifts. Ours is shifting.”They waited. None of them understood yet if this was a warning or an opportunity.Logan walked to the panoramic window. His reflection was sharp enough to cut. “The government is draining our channels
