Everyone soon arrived back at the hotel. A lawyer had quickly arrived at the scene to assist Cody in seeing everything goes over smoothly. Shortly after another driver had been sent to collect Collen, Daphne and Alison before anybody with cameras could arrive. When they got back to the hotel everyone separated to get cleaned up and ready for the party. Originally Alison and Daphne were both extremely hesitant since they didn't have a dress to wear and from what they heard on the phone, quite a few high profile individuals would be there. Collen informed them any party he has with close friends or employees were almost always casual and not to worry. Elsewhere in the offices of The Golden lining.Alexander was laid back in his office chair holding an ice pack to his face. By the time he had come too outside The Northern Garden, everyone had left, he had lost a tooth, and someone had stolen his wallet, even his damn shoes! As much as he wished to marc

"Ms. Tatiana!""It's such an honor  to meet you in person!""I didn't think it possible, but you're even more beautiful in person!""Marry me!" Tatiana strode into the room with refined grace without even trying, it was something as natural as the flow of water. Her wavy dark honey blonde hair draping past her shoulders flowing over her lean body, her posture straight, an aura of confidence exuded from her. She was everything a model and a man could want, what's more she knew it, that being said she never would allow such things to go to her head. She was simply confident in herself, not arrogant. She neither believed herself superior nor allowed the attention to inflate her ego.  The extent of people's reactions all varied, though in the end every one of them was positive. Everyone present found hard to peel their gaze away from her, no it was mentally painful to do so! Her very presence demanded the spotlight without asking

'HAHA this fool's even standing here laughing at himself. God this guy is pathetic!' Charles thought to himself. 'I'm having the night of my life thanks to this fool! Not only will I most likely be leaving with a famous model tonight, but this man's been pure gold as far as entertainment!' He was proudly giving himself a mental pat on the back when he saw the shadow of an object swinging inward from his side. Charles turned his face just in time to recognize a bottle being swung in at his face...."Huh?" The moment he mumbled this mind went blank.SMASH! Collen watched as Charles's eyes rolled back into his head after the bottle shattered over his head."Aah!" People cried out in surprise spreading outward trying to get away from Collen and the unconscious Charles.  A wave of fear washed over the crowd. Very few remained calm and composed."Collen!" Daphne and Alison rose to their feet in surprise"Tatiana, Daphne, Alison,

"Go fuck yourself." A broad grin spread across Patrick's face. 'I've been in this business for years. You think you're the first person to try intimidating me?'  Patrick had been dealing drugs for more then ten years. People like Collen were a dime a dozen. Whether defending their friends, trying to impress their girlfriends, or trying to keep their addict girlfriends clean. It didn't matter if they were expert fighters or not. Sure Patrick had taken plenty of beatings in his time that's just how things were. But in the end, none of the people had the balls to dirty their hands and kill another man. In his business whether it was competition, customers, or white knights, he had his life threatened again and again, does it look like he's dead? Nope. "You know... I was kind of hoping that would be your response." Said Collen giving him a nod and a cold smile. 'Alright here comes the beating, time to clench the teeth." But to Patrick's surprise no punch ever came,

Collen stood up untying the girl's hands giving them a reassuring smile. "Remember the most important thing is to always stay calm. Running around screaming doesn't do any situation good."  They both gave him a nod "Ok you two stay there for a minute, pretend you're still tied up also close your eyes." 'What kind of idiots leave people in a room completely unguarded?' Collen thought to himself, the men had stuffed them into the room, yes there was no way out apart from the door they came in through, but you don't know what the people are doing on the other side. Even if you're in the middle of a fortress a screw up like that will bare grave consequences.  "H-Hey H-Help! She's trying to bite her tongue off so she won't be raped!" Collen cried out as if desperate to get help, even stammering over a few words. "So much for screaming not doing any good." Alison whispered. The door slammed open two men rushing into the room. "What the hel
