Page 26 of Property of Big Daddy

In the end she gives her some lowlights and a trim.

Daisy barely spoke ten words to us, leaving the conversation to Cecilia and me.By the time we’re done, Big Daddy is back with a guy he calls Lunatic.The way he looks at Daisy and stands close without crowding her is protective and sweet and I wonder if there’s something between the two of them.

Big Daddy pays Cecilia her full rate and then some before sending her on her way.

It’s a Saturday and I don’t work tomorrow, so when he asks me to stay the night, I agree.This is my first time on his turf and I’m curious to observe him with his club.

Chapter Ten

“You’requiet,”Inote.

“I’m taking it all in.”

“It’s not always this loud and chaotic.”

“Why do I doubt that?”Gwynee sucks down more of her fruity cocktail Gail made her.She hangs around sometimes on weekends when shit gets wild.She’s Dunnie’s Ol’ Lady and the mother of Kidd, who is next in line to prospect once he’s twenty-one.Gail’s request.Not mine.I respect her wishes, but she can’t keep him from following in his old man’s footsteps much longer.

He’s practically a legacy as long as he doesn’t go and fuck up too hard.

Music filters through the sound system and I pull Gwynee into my lap, needing her close as we watch the scene around us.She leans back against my chest, and I grip her thighs, spreading them slightly apart so she can feel the erection in my pants right at her ass.I’m thinking about fucking her right here, with no one the wiser as to what we’re doing in our dark corner.

“You ever fucked in a room full of people before?”I slide a hand under one of her tits, over her shirt, giving it a squeeze.

“No,” her answer comes out like a pant.

Fuck me, my sugar baby is already worked up at the thought of it.

Before I get the chance to make the fantasy a reality, my niece Lucie shows up and with her is one of the women I used to fuck.I’m going to string her up and tan her damn hide for this.

Lucie smiles at us as she marches toward us with Becky in tow.

“I’m busy, Lucie,” I warn, my tone low and lethal.

Gwynee stiffens in my hold, sensing the change in my mood.

“Look who I ran into while in town.You remember Becky, the woman you’ve been dating for the past six months?”

All color drains from Gwynee’s face, but I tighten my arm around her before she can make a run for it.

“Hey, BD.”Becky licks her lips and the sight of her pisses me off.She knew the score.We fucked once a week, if that.When I told her to lose my number, that also meant to keep clear of my club and my fucking family.I made the mistake of being seen with her at Shooters when Lucie was there a few months back.She misread the situation and thought Becky was my woman, but I told her as much.She’s just pulling this shit out of whatever spite she has toward Gwynee.

“Get lost, Lucie.I’ll deal with you later.”My niece looks put out that she doesn’t get to stay and watch the drama.

Hero comes over and leads her away.I wish he’d fucking claim her already and put a fucking baby in here to calm her ass down.He says he’s not ready to settle down and I can’t force him.I mean, I could, but I won’t.

With Lucie out of my face, I focus on getting Becky the fuck out of here before she ruins shit for me with Gwynee.

“Thought I told you we were finished.”

“I know, but I ran into Lucie and…”

“Lucie doesn’t speak for me.”

“I’m sorry––I didn’t know you wouldn’t want to see me.”

“Bullshit.I was with my woman when I called and ended it.Told you straight up we were done.Before that, I told you how it was.Did I ever bring you here?”

“Well, no.”
