I gave in and began doing what I was best at.
Crime.
Corruption.
I started working for some of the dirtiest bastards in the city until one day I looked around and I was the one everyone feared. I was the one running things. The men I once worked for now worked for me, and I did what needed to be done to climb to the top.
Taking care of business.
Making money.
The things I did for money would sicken other people, but thankfully, I had a good head on my shoulders, and instead of staying in that life of crime and corruption, I contributed to a future where I would no longer have to answer to anyone ever again.
Everything I made on the streets doing the dirty deeds that most couldn’t stomach went back into my future. Running the tables with my knowledge of the games and doubling my money every day, I gambled until finally, I was living the penthouse life and owned a casino of my own.
It was dirty, but it got the job done.
Word on the street was that people still feared me, my name still whispered in the back alleys and underground gangs, and that was exactly how I preferred it.
Fear me.
Respect me.
The lobby was teeming with people, the night picking up as the sun settled and the moon rose. A group of troublemaking drunks stumbled toward the blackjack tables, and I nodded at Jerome, the security member closest to me, directing his attention toward the group. I had a feeling he would be clearing them out within the hour.
He nodded back, letting me know he understood, and discreetly spoke into his wrist, warning the others to be on guard. Kade and I ran a tight ship. Bullshit wasn’t tolerated, and I could sense the assholes a mile away.
I turned toward the elevator and waved my access card before pressing the button for the top floor. The green glass side of the elevator allowed me to look down over the casinos and bars as I rode it to the penthouse floor. The doors opened to Kade’s and my own personal lobby space, which was a sizeable masculine space between our two top-floor penthouse condos.
Dark leather furniture filled the space, looking out at a wall of windows framing the Vegas skyline. I moved through the lobby to my door, and I waved my access card to unlock my door.
Pushing the heavy door open, I was welcomed by the dark comfort of my home. Not wasting any time once I entered my place, I went into my massive master bathroom, stripped naked, and took the coldest shower I could stand, washing away the grime of my travels and shocking my primed body with a blast of cold.
When my hard cock softened, I breathed a sigh of relief. I wasn’t sure how long I could continue this way, starving my body of the things it desired, but I feared the moment I folded and had to start my time over again.
By the time I climbed into my king-size bed, the city outside the wall of windows was ablaze with the lights. Resting my arms behind my head, I gazed out at the night around me until finally, sleep swept me away, and I was able to find real relief in my dreams.
