A grin grows on Kenzo’s face. “Scotch it is then.” He snaps his fingers, calling over a server, and then places our order before continuing to run those dice across his knuckles, faster and faster, until they’re almost a blur. “So did she do it, mate?”

“She did,” I admit with a smile. “Pay. The. Fuck. Up.”

“Shit,” Kenzo growls. “You really are a fucking bastard, you know that?”

“So I’ve been told,” I retort smugly, accepting the glass of scotch offered to me on a tray. “Five thousand. Cash only.”

“Motherfucker,” he grumbles, snaking his hand inside his jacket and pulling out a wad of cash wrapped up in a rubber band. Stripping the rubber band off, Kenzo counts out five thousand bucks in hundred dollar bills and pushes them across the table. I snatch them up greedily and tuck them inside my own jacket pocket. “She got caught?” he asks, curiosity getting the better of him.

“Like a ho catching a trick,” I tell him, swirling the ice in my glass.

He smirks, rolling the dice in his palm before sliding them back into the pocket of his suit jacket. The band of his wedding ring catches my eye. I wonder if Roxy is at home now. I’m betting she knows exactly where he is and can’t wait for him to fly back. I can see the impatience in his eyes as well. None of the Vipers like to be away from their girl. They may be the kings, but she’s their fucking queen. “How bad was it?” he inquires, amused.

“Comical,” I admit, taking another sip of my drink. “She stuck out like I thought she would. But damn, it was hot seeing her in handcuffs,” I comment on a sigh. “Actually, in an odd turn of events, she was freed from jail and applied for a job as our new assistant, no doubt undercover for the police.”

“And?” He rolls his hand, gesturing for me to continue.

I smile. “We fucking hired her.”

He laughs and downs the rest of his drink, calling the server over for another round. She hustles off, and Kenzo raises an eyebrow at me as he regards me with a knowing look. “Does she know?”

I shake my head. “That it was me who hired her in the first place? Fuck no. And neither do my brothers.”

He chokes on his drink. “Fucking hell, you prick! Maddox is going to lose his mind when he finds out.”

I shrug. “It’s Rogan I need to watch out for. Fucking hacker might make my phone stop working or my computer explode or some shit.” Kenzo salutes to that. We toast and take drinks from our glasses.

“So what happens to her now?” he questions, frowning and pulling out his phone for a moment. A wide grin overtakes his face, and he shakes his head and replies before pocketing it and returning his attention to me.

“Now? My options are limitless. Whether she likes it or not, I own her. And by the time I’m done with her, she’ll either be begging for me to keep her or pleading with me to let her go. Regardless, I’m going to ruin that girl, so even if she does manage to escape my grasp, she’ll never be able to look at another man again without seeing my fucking face.”

That, I can promise.
