The Dare Harley Laroux Novels & Stories

A quick glance to make sure that his best piece was under lock and key and he was ready to go. “So where are the bad guys? Who should I spank? " They left the femme du jour while she was straightening her clothes and joined her colleagues. Across the street the spectacle was still the same, only that the girl's upper body was half bared. The strap of the dress had been pushed down over the shoulder. “A peep show? Why didn't you call me earlier? " Christian was his best friend, his brother, but at that moment Dareon would have liked to build one for him. The brush-brush was lucky that his anger was mainly directed at the young Hegedunen and ... that Xandra did the work for him.

The ladies had come swarming in their droves, as Dapo had thrown the cash around. It was a wild party filled with orgies that were better left than said. Dapo himself had a swell time with these free women. Dare had made sure the girls who came were not prone to scandalous behaviours by hand picking them himself. When it was close to midnight, Dare told the driver that brought the girls to return them back to where they had been picked from. After the last of the girls had left, Dare pulled his friend toward the bedroom. "Son of a gun, your big day is just in a few more hours!" And he gave a raucous laughter.

"It's just Charles and Jax. They went crazy over a dare." I glared at Miller. The grinning fool was trying to exonerate himself when he was the one holding the video two minutes ago. "Just a dare. That's what it is now, huh?" I formed a fist and took a threatening step toward him. Sloane held me back again, pulling hard on my jersey. "What's it gonna be, Jax?" Charles finally spoke. He was slightly out of breath, but the wicked smile had returned. "Do you take the dare, or do I email this to your dad tomorrow morning?"

I went dare, regretting instantly as he said, "Sing the school anthem backwards." I butchered it, voice cracking, them howling with laughter, Jaxon clapping, "Epic fail!" Ryker's truth next, me asking, "Worst fear?" He muttered, "Losing control on a shift," serious for once, mood dipping, but Jaxon lightened it quickly with his next dare, making Kael do push-ups with Jaxon on his back, failing hilariously after five. We kept going, laughs mixing with the rain's roar, but tensions underneath, until Jaxon decided to heat things up.

I drew a hard line when it came to taking three shots of whiskey, and I wouldn't let anyone pressure me into crossing it. Cigarette still between his lips, Lennox tossed the torn napkin back into the hat. "Pick again." Damn him and his movements. My blood heated at his confidence, a perfect match for my own. I made another choice. "Truth," I read the neatly written question that I believed belonged to Kaleb. "What's your greatest fear?" I paused for a moment, not needing much contemplation. "Watching someone I love die." Lennox rubbed my back beneath my shirt, and as the others made their bets, Perry lost his last die and picked the dare to take three shots of whiskey.

They kept insisting I had a hidden romantic agenda, trying to frame the Dawn family. "You have Adrian as your backing and never told us! You never considered us family, right? Now that your father's paralyzed, you target Maris. How can he possibly recover? You—" I hadn't expected Liora to get dragged into this. My expression darkened, and I cut them off sharply. "If you don't leave now, I'll call security. Maris and I broke up long ago. Her life or death is none of my concern." Finally, the hospital security escorted them out.

Zach suggests, "We really should show all of the warriors the videos of serious fights they have been in. That might make them think twice about repeating Gus' mistake" We all laughed and went to get our motorcycles. While Kayla and I put our chaps on, the guys just stared at us without making a sound. I bent down to put my boots on, and I heard a growl. I laughed, "What did I say about that this morning?" Damien laughed, put his hands up, and started pointing at Zach, "it wasn't me!" I laughed as Kayla pointed at Zach, "we talked about this too!" I laughed as I put my helmet on, "Let's go before someone gets in trouble". We all started our Harleys and left.

Paxton said, "So, you guys don't want the million dollars anymore?" Harvey replied, "The one million dollars is mine. Why wouldn't I want it?" Paxton asked, "Yours? It's not yours until I give it to you." He had been following Xander for many years. He had seen all sorts of people. But he had not encountered such a shameless person as Harvey. He thought, 'He has so many negative traits indeed.' Lauren nudged Harvey. "Hubby, if he wants to see the video, just let him see it. There's no harm in letting him take a look from a distance."

Occasionally all three. Even if my difference was minimal, it made me seem different from everyone else. Since Darius had rescued me from my father, I promised to preserve his secret. I quickly discovered that he intended to save me by securing me to the wall of his bedroom. "I'll let you handle it," Harley says, tucking his metal clipboard under his right arm and reaching for the doorknob of the door he just closed. With his back to us, he reaches around it and stops short of yanking it open.

It was seriously starting to creep me out until I got to the witness stand. As soon as I was sworn in, I sat down and immediately locked eyes with Daya. I smiled, then turned to the prosecutor, waiting for him to start speaking. He approached to stand in front of me, “Would you please state your full name for the court?” I nodded, “My name is Harlequin Marie Cross. Everyone just calls me Harley.”
