Page 4 of His Sunshine Baby

“Your sister is back?”

“Yep! The dress is from her shop.”

“I should have known.”

Daniel’s sister is only a few years older than us, but she already has two clothing stores. She’s a hard-working, self-made woman. Most importantly, she loves dressing people up, even more so than her brother. No wonder Daniel picked this dress.

“Come on, let’s get going, gorgeous!”

I barely have time to grab my favorite earrings before Daniel pushes me out of our apartment. It takes me a few seconds to adjust to the high heels while we walk to his car, and he chuckles. I ignore him, and once we finally reach his car, I check myself in the mirror. I’m satisfied with the light makeup, but I still can’t get used to being half-naked. Why does he care so much aboutwhat I wear tonight? Usually, a pair of black pants and a fancy bareback top are enough.

Daniel starts driving, and I notice the direction we’re headed is odd. I frown.

“Did you forget the way?”

“Nope. We are not going to Pepe’s bar.”

“Why not?” I ask, annoyed.

He could have told me before changing our plans!

“You need a break from the clan, baby. The Alpha’s been on your back nonstop these days, and he’s going to fuss again if someone sees you partying. And you know the guys always talk.”

I can’t say he’s wrong. Last time, a pair of guys told Xavier, and the next morning was hell. He scolded me for hours because I went partying before a training day.

“Those guys were just pissed because I ignored them,” I sigh.

“I know, baby, but I’m not letting those idiots be jackasses to you again just because you aren’t acknowledging their stupid flirting. I’m taking you somewhere we will be at peace.”

I sigh again, but damn, Daniel is right. No matter what, my uncle finds any possible excuse to scold me. Moreover, he always knows when I go out and which clubs I go to. I know this is our territory, but still, sometimes I wish I was part of the main White Moon clan instead of the Opal Moon clan. Clark Hamilton, the White Moon Alpha, treats me way better than my uncle Xavier.

“Alright Danny, where are we going then?”

“A new club! The Rain. Brand new, and anyone can attend.”

“I didn’t know there was a new nightclub opening. Is it in the Latin district?”

Daniel looks a bit embarrassed and focuses on his driving a bit too much. What is he hiding now? It doesn’t look like he’s headed to the Latin District or even staying within the White or Opal Moon territories. We’re almost at the border!

“Daniel, where are we going?”

He ignores me and starts humming. Is he kidding me? I turn the stereo off, one thing he hates, and glare at him.

“Danny!”

“Fine! It’s on the Velvet Moon territory.”

“The Velvet— Have you gone mad, Daniel Lewis?”

What is he thinking! This is basically jumping into a whole of problems!

The Velvet Moon belongs to the Black brothers, the most dangerous trio in this city and for miles around it! I’ve never seen any of the three brothers, but I’ve heard plenty enough to know this is madness. The eldest of the Black brothers is the King of this city and the most dangerous brother. Not only is he known to be impatient and violent, but the guy also murdered his own father, who was a butcher himself! The second brother is famous too. He is the one meeting the other packs on behalf of his brother and is depicted as cold, ruthless, and unforgiving. “An iron hand in a velvet glove,” that’s where his pack’s name comes from! The youngest brother is somewhat of a mystery, mostly because he’s too young for any position.

The Velvet Moon territory, what is he thinking?

“Calm down, baby! It’s an open event, anyone can go! And it’s super close to our border too. If anything happens, we’ll be out of there in a flash. I promise,” says Daniel.

“Daniel, if—”
