Lacey and I glance at each other, "I have no idea what you're talking about." I tell her with a straight face, if anyone looked in my car they'd know we stopped off at most gas stations along the way and refueled with anything and everything.

"Mrs. Brady, we're having a wonderful dinner this evening, would we ruin that by eating crap?" Lacey goes overboard with the lie, her lips twitch with a barely concealed smile.

Mom laughs as she shakes her head, "You two are as bad as each other, I don't know which one of you is the bad influence."

"She is." We both say as we point at each other.

Mom just shakes her head, "You two." She says, before turning to walk into the house, "Come on, let's get you inside, and I can show you to your rooms."

I gasp when I reach the front door and catch a glimpse of the inside. Classy. It's the only way that I can describe it. The floor to ceiling windows add so much light to the hall, and it's a huge hall at that, dominated by a marble staircase. The walls a

  • Step Too Far: Ruined By Him   Chapter 12

    Getting out of the car, I gaze at the abandoned lot and curse. I'm going to have to find a new place to hold my meetings, somewhere the feds don't know about. Walking into the lot, the chatter that filled the room is now a deathly silence, every man's eyes are on me as I walk in. I have thirty-three men, and I glance around the room at them. The newest members are at the back, they’ve probably heard rumors of what’s about to happen. They’re about to get a rude awakening. The men that have been with me since the get-go, the ones that called me Boss before I had the title are lean, well kept, and smartly dressed. Whereas the men that have been here since my dad and gramps were boss are overweight, balding and insubordinate.Fucking Ulric has a smirk on his face as he stands with his arms crossed. That look he has further adds fuel to my anger. I purposely stride toward him and everyone between us parts like it's the Red Sea. Only Cage and Darwin stand beside him; they had better move wh

    I smirk. This is going to be fun. "He's not going to know what's hit him."As we get outside the club, there’s a black sedan across the street. Fucking feds, always up in my business. They're trying to find anything on me to put me inside. I'm not that fucking stupid."Mr. Brady," Johnson calls out, that guy is really busting his chops to try and pin something on me, he's a rookie fed, and he's hoping that if he can get me in the can, it'll make his career. He'll be a legend, bringing down the biggest drug lord in America."Mr. Johnson, don't you have anything better to do? Like going home to your family?" I smirk, the fucker is a loner, his wife left him because he was fucking his co-worker. So he spends his evenings trying to find anything to bring my organization down.His lips thin into a tight line. "You going anywhere nice?"I give him a cold stare, "That would be none of your business. I'll see you around, Mr. Johnson." I climb into the back of the Bentley Continental, Jagger c

    LeviThe sound of my cell ringing has me looking at Jagger, "It's my dad, tell everyone the meeting is in an hour, anyone not in attendance better be dying or else they're going to wish they were." I say through clenched teeth."Will do Boss." He tells me with a smile. The man is a fucking sadistic sonofabitch. He comes across as a sweet southern boy, but in actual fact, he's a stone-cold killer. He's my right-hand man, everything he does is on my say so."Hey, old man, everything good?" I ask as I answer the phone, noticing Jagger's smirk as he leaves my office, he'll have the boys rounded up and ready for a meeting. If anyone disobeys, he'll deal with them."Less of the old, thank you. I'm just calling to see what time you'll be here in the morning?"I close my eyes and silently curse. Shit, I forgot about that fucking breakfast. "Sorry Dad, there's been a change of plans. I won't be there for breakfast.""What do you mean you won't be here for breakfast?" He growls. The old man's p

    Harrison laughs, "Yes, two hundred. We never did celebrate our wedding properly and tomorrow night is a party to do just that."Damn, that means that we have to attend."As I was saying..." Mom continues, "It's a formal party which means you both need new dresses."Lacey and I look at each other and smile. New dresses, that's fine, we can make a day of it. "Cool, we'll go shopping in the morning.""You can take Barney. He'll be your personal chauffeur for the day. Also, he has my credit card so you can buy whatever you want."I instantly shake my head, "Thanks for the offer, but I thought Lacey and I could have a girls day and go shopping and relax before the party.""Tina," Harrison says, there’s a warning to his tone giving my mom a pointed look."Renae, listen to Harrison, okay? He's being nice and wants to treat you girls to a new dress." Mom tells us and gives Harrison a soft smile. I'm confused, I have no idea why she's so dead set on us spending his money, that's not who I am,

    Renae“Renae, Lacey. Dinner’s ready.” Mom calls out, and I glance at Lacey, her pale skin is so noticeable in this light, as is the dark circles under her eyes. I wonder if my appearance is as haggard as hers? All I want to do is get in the shower and then collapse on the bed. Maybe even sleep for a week.“Ugh food,” Lacey groans and I can’t help but laugh, “don’t say it, Renae.” She warns me.I laugh harder, “I told you not to eat anything else.” I smirk at her as she climbs out of the bed. “Coming, Mom,” I yell. Harrison hasn’t come home yet. I’ve been keeping a close eye on the window.“Do you think your mom would mind having a housemate?”I shake my head, “For the fifth time Lace, I don’t think Harrison and Mom want you crashing their newly wedded bliss.”She pouts, “This house is amazing. I want to live in it forever.”This house is indeed amazing. There’s a freaking swimming pool. I’ll be making use of that while I’m here. Lacey found a wooded trail that she wants us to run tomo
