I squeezed my nails into his shoulder and muttered, "Vincent!" I was absolutely terrified. He gave me a look I had never seen before while carefully taking my hand away from me. 

Those eyes radiated pure hatred. I was baffled as to how someone could become so gloomy so quickly after being so nice and cheerful, so my eyebrows furrowed. What transpired? As he turned around in just his boxers, the older guy absorbed Vincent.

 "I allowed you to come here to learn, boy, and you have the nerve to sneak out of a family gathering to play stripper for your little whore?" I immediately glanced behind me when the man pointed at me. My jaw fell. Wait! Did he just refer to me as a whore? 

"Who the fuck are calling a w. .." Vincent's hand slammed over my lips before I could finish.

 "Don't speak!" he commanded in a voice I had never heard from those lips before. I had the urge to hit him, but I was still paralyzed with terror. He faced these men to speak to them.

 "Leave! I'm right behind you," Vincent ordered, and my heart raced. The older man's eyes darkened even more as he asked, "Are you telling me what to do? " There were death stares everywhere, and I swear they were about to shoot one another. 

"Don't make me say it again," Vincent commanded, and this time everyone complied. I didn't like how his whole demeanor shifted to that of a ruthless despot. This wasn't my Vincent. "Not smart, Cuz."

 "I don't care, Caelum," said the attractive guy who was walking beside the older man. Vincent responded with a frigid stare. 

"Take it easy!" He's an old dinosaur who hasn't had a decent fuck in ages. 

"Caelum, I think his cousin," gave him a sly grin that made me consider they might murder the old man. 

"I don't doubt you would enjoy that, Caelum." If you want, we may teach him his place. Bring my men back to my house. I'll be following you men closely," he commanded. My men? That was odd. Why were they his troops? What made them his men? This made no sense at all. When everyone had gone, Vincent gave me that playful grin once again.

 "Am I bipolar?" he wondered as he saw the dread in my eyes. "I'm so confused," I could only say. His hand covered my cheek, and his eyes were full of affection. 

"I'm sorry, baby. " Two minutes ago, I didn't know who he was. They were gentle and nice. "I need to leave. Would you let Isaac and Manuel drive you home?"

 "What? Why?" I didn't need to leave. My friend's bridal shower took place in this room. I admit that I wasn't particularly close to her. I still didn't have to go. "I dislike leaving you alone, particularly with naked men dancing around. 

"Can you just listen, and I'll explain more tonight?" he begged me with his eyes. I glanced around the room and saw that everyone was still motionless, staring at us. In any case, I had the impression that I was no longer welcome in this place.

 "Okay!" I said quietly, but the anger was obvious on my face. "Hey, you're my girl. Don't pout. " He leaned his lips close to my ear. "I'll make it up to you when I climb in your bed tonight. I promise, baby." I couldn't help but smile a bit. He always knew how to bring me the utmost happiness when we were in bed together. I teased him by saying, 

"We see how good you say sorry, and maybe I will allow you some pleasure too," as I kissed his lips. I kissed him as he smiled, then I gave his lower lip a bite. 

"Fuck, baby! I need to go." His huge hands grabbed my hips and then pulled away.
