“You will be…just not by me.”
“What? Gage –”
“Don’t. Move.”
I stick my head through the door and waveRazor over, giving him a peek inside.
“A gift for you, my brother.”
He looks to the heavens and bites his lip. “Iever tell you I love you, brother?”
“Make it quick. I’ll wait for yououtside.”
But not before I stop in the men’s room andwash my hands. I suddenly feel very dirty. While waiting, my minddrifts to Raven. That shit she pulled this morning had me cominglike three times in the shower. Just feeling her body tremblebeneath me was like nothing I’ve ever experienced before. Andwaking up next to her? I wouldn’t mind doing that every day. Not atall.
Razor exits the building with a huge grin onhis face. “Thank you, my brother. That was a fine piece ofass.”
“Crazy as fuck, though.”
“I know. That’s why I’m seeing her later.” Hegrins as he slips his aviators on.
“You’re a sick fuck, Razor.”
“Don’t I know it, Prez.”
CHAPTER 4
***Raven***
You know in the movies where someone walksinto a room, a record scratches somewhere, and everyone stares atthe newcomer? Think MJ walking into the nightclub in the beginningof the “Smooth Criminal” video. That’s exactly what happened. All Iknow is, one moment Chrissy and I are playing pool, hanging outwith some of the guys, and the next moment it’s dead silent. I lookup and everyone is staring at the door. I’m bent over the pooltable, so I straighten and turn around. I wish I hadn’t though,because I’m staring into the blue eyes of Death himself. Gagestands there, shaking with barely restrained rage, his eyes lockedon me. He’s a volcano about to erupt. I swallow hard.
“Where thefuck…are your clothes?” Heshouts.
I swear his voice echoes through my entirebody.We’re back to this?What I’m wearing is perfectly fine– shorts and a bandeau. Jeez, even Daddy wasn’t this anal. Before Ican say anything, he storms up to me and grabs my hand. Withoutstopping, he drags me behind him to his room, pushing me inside andslamming the door behind him. I haven’t even regained my balancebefore he grabs me again and forces me against the wall.
“What the hell, Gage?”
“Have you been drinking? Smoking?”
I roll my eyes. “No, Daddy.”
“I swear to God, woman. Don’t test me!”
“How?”
“You’re out there practically naked!”
“I am not!”
“You like that, huh? Being a fucking tease?”He asks, getting into my face.
A tease?“How dare you –”
I cringe as he slams his palm on the wall bymy head and closes his eyes, trying to rein in his anger.Okay,I think it may be in my best interest not to push him rightnow.
“Just cover up, Raven,” he says, his wordscoming through clenched teeth.
“I don’t have anything else. This is allChrissy brought.”
