“Yes,”
“Aww, and why all white?”
“It screams elegant, regal, powerful. All white and all black is just chef’s kiss,”
I open the car door for her, get in, and head to the address she provided.

My stomach is in knots from wondering how Jaasiel is going to handle what I know I am going to need to do. I have given Max a million chances, and he has fucked up almost every single one of them. Once I handled my business tonight, this will determine if Jaa and I remain together.
Jaasiel stops in front of the venue, but before he can open my car door, Luca is there.
“Boss, he’s inside still. Luke is keeping an eye on him.”
“Thank you, Luca,” Jaasiel comes around the SUV, looking at Luca like he wants to slap him. “Luca, this is Jaasiel. You’ll respect him like you respect me, understood?”
He nods his understanding, “And the business?” he asks.
“He is the same as me.”
“Understood, boss. Do I call you boss, Sir, Jaasiel, or by your last name?”
“Jaasiel is good.”
“What happened?”
“He’s drunk or high or both. He was loud and belligerent and threatened to hit her. She called me and I had Liam give you a call, so here we are.”
“Sonofabitch! Okay, clear the venue.”
“Already done.”
“Good,” I say, walking into the building. I see Luke standing in the hallway, and I know Max is in the room. As soon as I reach the room’s threshold, I see how he has trashed the room. He is ranting and raving to Liam about how he didn’t do anything wrong.
The triplets, that’s what I call Liam, Luca, and Luke. I say they are triplets even though they are not related at all. They let Amy know I would call her in the morning.
“Max,” I say, getting his attention.
“Boss, I didn’t do anything!” he says immediately.
“My mom would say a hit dog will holler. I didn’t even say anything, and already you are trying to defend yourself. What happened to the room, Max?”
“I was just frustrated; I didn’t mean it. Please don’t fire me, I need this job.”
“Then how come you haven’t acted like it? You have fucked up one too many times, and now you are affecting my money, and that is unacceptable. I am going to take the cost of the shit you destroyed out of your final payout, and you are no longer an employee of Black Diamond Talent Acquisition.” As I am talking, I notice Jaasiel has taken a seat where he can watch me but also watch Max and intervene if he needs to. He won’t need to, I can hold my own, and if not, that is why I pay the triplets what I do. I slip my hands into my pockets and slide on my rings. I can tell by the look on Max’s face that this is about to go left. Yeah, this is going to let me see if Jaasiel will really be okay with my job.
“You bitch!” he screams, charging at me. Jaasiel begins to move, but before he can, I plant my feet, pull my right hand out of my pocket, reach back, and punch him in the face, smashing his nose and causing blood to spew everywhere, including on my white suit. I knew when I put this suit on, it was going to be trashed. He screams, grabbing his face with both hands to try to stop the blood from gushing. The look he levels at me is pure murder, and he rushes me again, and this time I punch him on his left ear, followed by an uppercut and a knee to his face. Once he is down, I lift my leg and kick him before crushing the fingers on his left hand. Both my hands are bloody, I gather my pants legs and pull them up so I can squat next to his face. Both of the brass knuckles on my hands are dripping blood as I tell him, “I would have made sure you had more than you could’ve ever dreamed, but you couldn’t get out of your own way to succeed. I will help as much as I can but what I won’t let happen is my money or business get fucked up. Too many other people rely on this business to eat, pay bills, and support their families, and your selfish ass is not going to destroy that. Liam, Luca, and Luke are going to take you to the hospital so you can get patched up. I’ll take care of the bill, and you’ll get what’s left of your pay after I take the cost of my suit out, and you are still fired.” I stand back up, slide my rings off, handing them to Liam before turning to see what I expect will be disgust on Jaasiel’s face, but when I look at him, all I see is heat in his eyes.Is he turned on?He walks over to me, kissing me hard before he asks, “Are you ready to go home?”
Jaasiel
She is sexy as fuck right now, covered in blood and squatting by the man she just beat the shit out of. When he rushed her, I thought for sure I was going to have to six feet his ass, but when she punched him and shattered his nose, I noticed the brass knuckles. I sat back and let her handle her business. Being with a Gideon automatically means you have to be able to handle yourself; we have made more than a few enemies, and most of them would not hesitate to go after our women to get to us. I have to ask Atlas where he gets all of True’s weapons made so I can have a new set of knuckles made for her.
We get home, and I take her straight to the bathroom, strip her out of her ruined suit and me of my clothes, and put us both in the shower. I take my time and wash her, making sure I get every trace of blood off of her, taking care of her. I turn the shower off and wrap us both in towels as I carry her to bed, pulling back the covers and getting in holding her in my arms until we both fall asleep.
