Tiny snaps a finger and orders one of the guards outside the room, “Clean this up.”
A large man enters the room, the one who I overheard talking about how he’d love to fuck me in every hole. I grab the top of the headboard and use all my might to kick him in the chest. “Stay away from me you raping bastard!”
Tiny’s dark eyes narrow on us. “Enough,” he shouts and comes between us. His brow furrows as he looks between us. “What do you mean?”
“Don’t let him touch me again. I’ll do whatever you want, but please,” I whisper. “I can’t be around him.”
I look away from him and think about Uno and how badly he would have wanted our child, giving me the fuel that I need to make what I am about to say believable. Tears burn in my eyes and I look back to the two of them. “The first week I was here…you left for a meeting. And he…” I let out a sob and grab Tiny’s arm, digging my nails into his skin. “He raped me. The whole time he was doing it he said he was going to put his child in me and laughed about how you’d be raising his bastard thinking it was yours.” Fury crosses Tiny’s face and I smile on the inside.
“You did this!” Tiny roars. “You touched what was mine? You defiled her body with your pathetic cock.” He grabs him between the legs twisting his dick and the man’s face goes ashen.
The large man stares at me, anger rolling off him. “You know me, boss. I would never disrespect you.”
“Ask the other guard he has bragged to him about wanting to rape me. Ask him,” I cry.
Tiny calls the other guard into the room and questions him in Italian. A language I don’t understand. Smoothing his features, he appears eerily calm as we all wait for his verdict. I’m scared but I try to keep in character which isn't hard as I am mourning for another child Uno will again never know or get to hold.
What feels like minutes but is merely seconds tick by. Tiny looks to me. “I’m sorry.”
The big bastard gloats, shooting me a smug smirk right as Tiny turns to him and grabs his head. He kisses his cheeks. “I have treated you like a brother.” Then without hesitation he pulls him into a hug and stabs him in the back with a small blade in the kidney. The man’s eyes widen as the reality of his own death hits him.
It kills me to do so but I allow Tiny to take me to the bathroom and run me a bath. He is being tender and sweet. Apologizing to me for what his man did to me and I play my part. I play the victim and use it to my advantage to create a bond between us. I use it to gain his trust.
Later, I am laying on the sofa in the TV room. Tiny’s mother, enters the room, dismissing my guard. “My son is gone to a meeting, so we can speak freely.”
“Sorry, I don't follow what you mean.”
“I know what you did. That baby I bled out of you wasn't Hector’s. It was your ex-husbands. Don't try to deny it. I would have done the same. This proves to me you are a good match for my son and when the time comes I will give you my blessing.” With those final words, she leaves the room and a moment later my guard returns.
Chapter 15
—Uno
For the first time in my life I’m a single man. The first few weeks after I sent Steph away I was lost and didn’t know what to do with myself. I threw myself into reinventing the Cherry Room and now the place is finally turning a profit. Hades was impressed with the work Melissa has done on the place and gave her a position as the daytime manager, so she can be home with Jimmy in the evenings. She still dances on Friday nights because she needs the extra income.
I’ve been living at the clubhouse. I try to avoid thinking about Stephanie, so I don’t go home. I haven’t set foot in the house we shared in over six weeks. I stay here where I can get lost in easy pussy and no one judges me for it. I’ve nailed the easy pussy part but it’s losing myself that could use some fuckin’ work. I thought there could be something between Melissa and me, but she’s made it clear she doesn’t want anything to do with me outside of work. I look down at Carmen, who is currently on her knees attempting to deepthroat my cock like a fucking champ. Bitch can suck dick. I’ll give her that, but my mind still drifts back to Stephanie and I squeeze my eyes tight, attempting to block out the guilt. But she’s always here in the back of my mind.
Yanking Carmen’s hair, I hit the back of her throat, makin
g her gag. Tears burn in the corners of her eyes as she stares up at me through her lashes. I fuck her mouth hard and deep, chasing a release. An escape from my mind but it’s not helping. She’s not who I want. My cock softens, and I pull away.
“Did I do something wrong?” The whore hugs her arms to her chest wearing a look of disappointment on her face.
I cup the back of my neck. “It’s not you. Just got shit on my mind is all. I’ll catch up with you later.” I dismiss her and fall back on the bed, staring up at the ceiling. My phone vibrates on the nightstand. Glancing at the screen I see Melissa’s name flashing.
“What’s up?”
“Um…I hate to bug you and if you’re busy I will find someone else, but there’s a water leak or something. I tried to take a shower and it was barely dripping.”
“Do you know how to turn the water off?”
“No.”
“Alright. I’ll be there in twenty.” The call ends and I shove up off the bed and grab my jeans from the floor. Melissa took me up on my offer to stay in my mother-n-law’s house. I don’t charge her any rent. She just has to keep the utilities paid. I don’t expect the crazy old bitch to come home anytime soon. I grab a shirt off a nearby chair and shrug my arms through my cut and light up a cigarette as I shove my feet in my boots.
It takes me around thirty minutes to get to Melissa’s. I had to stop for gas and more smokes. I pull up and park to the side of her car. “Hey you.” Melissa waves from the front door. I stomp up the wooden steps and Cleo, my mother-in-law’s pussy cat, comes running out the house with Jimmy chasing after her trying to grab her tail. “Jim Jam I told you to leave that poor creature alone. If she wants you to pet her she’ll come to you!”
I chuckle and grab him before he can dart past me. “Where’s your shoes, bud?” He presses against my chest trying to wiggle out of my arms. “I need you to help me shut the water off. Think you can do that?” He nods. “Go get your shoes.” I put him down and tell Melissa I’m going to the shed to get some tools.
