Dash POV
“Seriously? A college party?” I let out and Jagger shrugs. Usually, he is the one who does this type of job, but today I am the unlucky bastard who has to deal with kids. I owe him. I promised I would do something for him. That’s what happens when your twin brother gets shot saving your fucking life.
Jagger is the enforcer in our fucked up world. We belong to the MOB and I am the boss’s right hand. So usually Jagger needs to deal with this situation, scare some people, and beat them up, but today is my turn. I hate doing these types of jobs, don’t get me wrong. I enjoy beating some people and violence is always the answer, but when it comes to parties like this… I hate doing it, there’s too much to lose and I usually tend to get into some girl’s bed.
As I said before, we are twins. I can’t see anything similar between us, but everyone says we look exactly the same with just different haircuts, but I don’t see it. Jagger is a miserable bastard while I enjoy life and I enjoy getting lost in pussy. We couldn’t be any more different.
Jagger was born a whole twenty minutes before me. He was born naturally and then I decided I didn’t want to be born and they had to take our mother to the operating room and take me out. What can I say? I was stubborn even before I was born. Jagger always behaves like an older brother, even though we are fucking twins.
One thing you don’t see every day is that we are twins, but we were born on different days. He was born before midnight and I was born after midnight. I think that makes us even more special. Growing up, kids used to tease us and Jagger never took it lightly.
“Tenth floor,” Jagger says and I roll my eyes and open the car door, stepping out. The kid throwing this party has bought a stupid amount of drugs from one of our local dealers and hasn’t paid, even after the dealer paid him a visit he still won’t pay so it’s up to me now to rough him up a little.
I walk straight into the building without being asked for identification or anything. I assume the party is getting wilder, and he doesn’t care who shows up to have fun, so I assume it will be okay for me to show up. When the elevator dings and the doors open, I can already smell the pot. Fair enough. My partying in college was a lot harder, and I know he is partying hard as well. The amount of coke and heroin this guy bought is enough to get everyone in here high and have some leftovers.
I step inside the apartment and my eyes scan each room and I immediately spot the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life. She is dancing on top of the dining room table, her hands moving up and down her body while her movements make every guy in here drool. She is holding a red plastic cup while everyone around the table claps and chants for her to strip.
I can see three girls looking horrified, and there are two explanations for it. They are either the girl’s friend or they hate her. I shrug my shoulders, walking past the sea of people and walking up the stairs. I need to find the guy and I know looking down from the balcony is the best way. You would never think the apartment was an open space like this from the outside.
I rest my elbows on the railing as I stare down and I spot the bastard. He is the one up close to the girl dancing on the table, his phone up as he records, and something in me twists. My smile disappears as I hear a girl purr in my ear. “Wanna have some fun?”
I wrap my hands in her arms and push her lightly away from me. She is so out of her mind she won’t even remember partying tomorrow. Her eyes are bloodshot red and I take a deep breath as I walk past her and down the stairs again.
Moving fast between the people around the table trying to get to the guy, I stop when the girl falls and I extend my arms to catch her. Her eyes dart to mine and she offers me a small smile before she curses under her breath and pukes all over me and down herself. Fucking great. That is all I need.
I close my eyes for a few seconds, trying to control my anger and when I open my eyes again, her eyes are scanning my face. Her hand moved up and down my cheek as if trying to memorize my face. My leather jacket and all of her clothes are covered in vomit, and I swear I could spank her ass for drinking this much and getting to this state.
“Oh my God, thank you,” a blonde girl says as she approaches me after I hear everyone booing and moving away from the passed-out girl who is now sleeping in my arms. “I am so sorry about that,” another girl with blue hair says and I nod.
“This way,” she says, pushing away from people while I scan the room, not being able to find the bastard again. “Fuck,” I hiss and the three girls look at me and they all offer me an apologetic smile. They are all too fucking young for me, but the sleeping beauty is in my arms. Fuck, she is gorgeous, probably the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, and her skin is so soft and before she puked all over me, she was smelling amazing.
The girls guide me up the stairs to a room with a bed in the middle. I look around, not liking the place, but I place her limp body on the bed and the girls start thanking me. The girl with the blonde hair is a little handsy trying to remove my jacket, but I wave her off. I came here to do a job and I am going to do it.
I remove my jacket and throw it on the floor of the bathroom that is adjacent to the room. There’s no saving it. I roll the sleeves of my black shirt and watch as the girl sleeps in the middle of the bed while her friends remove her clothes as she protests. I try to avoid staring, but I can’t. She is perfection. Even when she is slurring.
I leave the room without saying anything else, trying to get my head back in the game and I scan the entire apartment looking for the prick and I can’t find him. He either saw me and sniffed trouble or he is in one of the rooms fucking some girl.
I grab a bottle of vodka from the shelf and bring it to my lips as I walk up the stairs again. Maybe I should’ve checked upstairs first, but I needed to put distance between myself and the sleeping beauty. As I walk out of the kitchen, I see her friends all chatting to some guys and I frown. Where is the red-haired goddess? I walk past them, ignoring their words, and rush up the stairs. I open the door to find her under the guy I was looking for. Her sleeping body is under his while he kisses her neck and anger bubbles in me and when I close the door after I step inside the room, his eyes focus on me.
“Bro, can’t you see the room is taken?” The guy says, and I move fast to him, gripping him by the collar of his shirt, slamming my fists into his face. I can hear the crack of bones breaking and his screams are loud, but the music is louder and for once I am glad about that.
The guy screams in agony, trying to push me away and right now I don’t know if I am ending his life or if I am just breaking a couple of limbs. The bastard cries in agony when he falls on his knees and I place my boot on his leg and press, hearing his bones break and he screams in agony again. Fucking Pussy. he needs to grow a pair if he wants to be a big bad wolf.
I can hear the sleeping beauty shifting on the bed and when I look at her, she is mumbling something in her sleep. She is completely out of it. I can see her top pulled up, exposing her breasts and something in me shifts and a blinding rage takes over again as I grab the guy’s hair and slam his face against the wall. “The Reaper says hi,” I whisper in his ear. The sleeping beauty is not wearing the same clothes as before. She is wearing something clean and I am grateful for that. I walk to the girl and fix her clothes before grabbing her in my arms and taking her away.
I might be a man-whore, but I would never take advantage of a woman. Men like that can’t be called men. They have to be called weasels. I am seeing red the entire time I have the girl in my arms carrying her down the stairs.
I always hated college parties, even when I was in college, but things in England worked a little differently and the guys we surrounded ourselves with would never dare touch a woman without her permission. I don’t take myself too seriously, but if there’s something that makes me lose my cool, it’s this. A damsel in distress because a guy is trying to attack her, instead of protecting her.
I get out of that apartment without anyone stopping me. This fucking generation is lost. No one stops a stranger carrying a passed-out girl out of the house. I shake my head as I try to calm my anger and it does calm down as soon as the sleeping beauty wraps her arms around my neck to be more comfortable.
She weights less than I thought; she is light as a feather and my cock decides it’s a good time to say hello, her body against mine feels right and I need to start thinking about my grandmother in a bikini to make it go down. There’s something about the girl that makes me feel this intense need to protect her.
Jagger POVEntering the elevator, I press my key card to the reader and the doors close immediately. I hate sharing the elevator with people, so I like to come early, before everyone is supposed to start. Today is a bad day for me. It’s been ten years today since my life changed and made me the man I am today. The elevator doors open and Janet looks at me with a wide smile. I look at her, shaking my head slightly as I walk to her desk and she offers me a cup of black coffee. “Good morning boss,” she says and I raise an eyebrow, looking at her and her shoulders slump as she looks at me. “What? Can’t I try to make your day a little better? Today is your dark day after all,” she says and I nod slightly, offering her a small smile. I don’t smile a lot lately, I don’t have a lot of reasons to smile, anyway. “Every day is a dark day,” I correct Janet, and she crosses her arms in front of her chest giving me her sassy attitude and I nod “Thank you for the coffee,” I tell her and her entire
Dash POVStanding at the altar waiting for Grace to walk up to me is making me more nervous than I have ever been in my life. Waiting for her to walk to me in her wedding dress, ready to make me her husband, is the weirdest feeling ever. The past year I have spent showing Grace how much I love her and how important she is to me. The Bridal March starts playing and I look at my brother, who is standing next to me while I adjust my jacket. Fiddling with my hands seems to be helping with the anxiety of seeing Grace.Everyone stands up and then I see Grace walking towards me next to her mother. The veil is covering her face, but I can see her smile underneath. Once they stand in front of me, Marie kisses me on the cheek before offering me her daughter’s hand. I hold Grace’s hand, bringing it to my lips before I remove the veil from her face and her eyes shine with happiness, but it soon disappears when her eyes move from me to my brother standing behind me. “What happened to Jagger?” Gr
Dash POVOne year laterOpening my eyes as I feel the sweat dripping down my face and my heart beating fast makes me sit up straight immediately. I look around the room, remembering I am in Jagger’s house. Today is my wedding day and Grace came up with the whole shit. I am not allowed to see her before the wedding kind of crap.I tried to explain to her that superstition made no sense, not when we lived together and shared a life already, but she made me promise I would respect what she wanted. What can I say? The girl says jump and I ask how high. I am entirely in her hands and she can do whatever the fuck she wants with me that I will allow her to. Pulling up a pair of shorts that I left on the chair, I walk out of the room towards the living room to find my brother with an ice pack against his lip. I raise a single eyebrow as I step closer to him and chuckle as his bruised face appears behind the ice. “Holly shit, Grace is going to fucking kill you, and those bruises won’t be any
Dash POVI open my eyes and immediately regret doing so. My mouth is dry and my vision is blurred. I move my hands up and down my face, trying to wake up, but the headache makes me flinch. I groan in frustration and when I move; I feel something next to me in bed. No, no… Fear strikes and I stand still, not wanting to look at how much I fucked up last night. Getting drunk is one thing, but hooking up and ending up fucking a random girl is an entirely different kind of fuck up. A fuck up, I will not forgive myself. Gathering the courage to look after taking several breaths, I move slightly to see Grace sleeping next to me. I look up and then look at my side again, sitting up on the bed in one movement. Not believing my eyes, I smile, but at the same time freak out a little. How the fuck did I end up in bed with Grace?I look around the room, not recognizing it, and then look down at my body to find a pair of green boxer shorts I have never seen in my life. What the fuck? Looking arou
Grace POV“Grace, dinner is ready, sweetheart,” Mom says as she opens my bedroom door. I nod my head slightly without lifting my head from the pillow. “I’m not hungry,” I whisper back as I feel a single tear roll down my face. I have been crying on and off since I left Dash’s house. Everything he has told me, plus everything else that happened, has taken a toll on me. It’s like my brain has gone into overdrive and shut down. Refusing to cope with what is happening.Mom takes a deep breath as she sits on the edge of the bed, resting her hand on my legs. I look at her and I can see the concern plastered all over her face. “I am worried about you,” Mom says, and that is the last thing I want. She doesn’t deserve to be feeling this. She has gone through so much, I hate putting another thing on her back. Mom looks like she has aged years in the last few days. The betrayal, the divorce, my dad’s death, and my kidnapping have taken a huge chunk of her life away. “Sorry Mom,” I say, sitting
Dash POV“What do you mean, you do things that would make my skin curl? What do you mean by that?” Grace asks and I close my eyes for a few seconds and when I open them, her eyes widen as if she is finally understanding everything. “I am innocent Grace, and I will make sure no one comes back to hurt you,” I say, and she stands up so fast it makes my head spin. “Careful, you can’t do that,” I say, but she ignores me as she paces around the living room. “Are you telling me you are like Parisi?” Grace asks and I stand walking to her. I place my hands on her neck and her eyes meet mine as I caress her skin lightly with my thumb as I shake my head. “I am nothing like that fucker, I don’t traffic women, I don’t rape women, I don’t force them to do things they don’t want, and I sure as hell don’t hurt innocent women,” I add and Grace’s eyes widen again as her hands fly to touch mine. Her hands gripping mine but she doesn’t push away. “I am not like him, but I am not innocent,” I say and s
