Jax Point of View
Chaos in my fucking club as soon as I walked in. I saw Reina at the bar smiling like a god damn psychopath.
She knew something.
'The Black Hunter was here.' one of my men said 'all the cameras were hacked and can't be unhacked. Angelo is trying.'
'Cover it up.' II ordered while my eyes were on her.
She knows something and I plan on finding out.
I went from behind her and pushed at the centre of the bottom of her neck and she fell backwards.
I took her into my arms and took her to the back of the club.
She would be out for 6-8 hours and when she does wake up, I will get my answers.
I left her at the back in a locked room in case she tried anything.
I came back in the morning to check up on her and walked in.
Sloan was lying on the floor knocked out and so was Dolan.
Where was she?
Rage flew by me but the most significant emotion was confusion.
How on earth did this woman beat up men who were twice her size? Where did she learn how to fight? How did she fight so well?
If I wasn't curious before I sure was now.
'Boss you called.' Angelo stated as he walked in.
'I want to know where Reina Romano will be today,' I demanded.
'.... Sure.' he hesitated.
Within the next hour, he came back and told me that she would be in her hotel.
She's probably trying to buy land since I cut the deal off with me.
Short tempered and stubborn.
I wanted to see her so I rounded up majority of my paperwork and headed over to the Romano hotel.
I walked in 'Where's the CEO's office?'
'On the 5th floor but first you need an appointment sir.' the receptionist in her mid-thirties said.
'No need.'
I walked up the stairs and barged into the office door.
She was sitting on a spiny chair in front of her office. It was grandly decorated with a couch and pictures across the wall. could clearly tell why her hotel was voted the best international hotel company.
She was talking to a girl with purple hair undertones and blue eyes.
'Ms. Romano. He came in with no appointment.' the receptionist said.
'it's alright Mrs. Larson.' she said with a gentle tone dismissing her.
She then snapped her eyes to her friend.
'Adelina leave.' she sternly commanded.
'As you please baby.' she retorted sarcastically.
She gestured for me to come and sit on the couch in front.
I had a good look at her. She was wearing a full black outfit which pulled out her creamy brown eyes. It was a black top and jeans with a black cardigan on top. She wore a matt black watch that fit the outfit perfectly.
'How did you do it?' I demanded coming forward to her.
'Do what.' she asked innocently.
She was playing dumb once again.
'Beat and bruise up my men.'
She blinked at me blankly.
'I don't get an answer then.' I scoffed.
'Nop'
My eyes were burning the red in them.
I am so close to snapping her neck in half.
'Who's the black hunter?'
'Why did you kidnap me?'
'Do you know the black hunter?'
'Who knocked me out?'
'Why did he kill at my club?'
'Did your stalkerish obsession get a bit too high to control you needed to kidnap me?'
She's obnoxious more than I thought.
'I do not have an obsession with you.' I stated coldly.
'Then why the questions?'
'I want my answers.'
'Curiosity killed the cat.' she snapped back at me.
'A cat has nine live, Nemesis.'
'That's my name now?'
Nemesis. That was the perfect name for her. She was the enemy not any sort of ally in any way.
'guess so.'
'Well, Narcissus you best get going since the Black Hunter has never is never and will never be any of your business.'
'So, you know him?' I growled leaning forward.
I took her chin and guided her to look into my eyes.
She was different. She never bowed down to me or any other man. I can't put my hand on it but she's not like anyone I have ever met.
She scowled and threw my arms off her chin.
She pointed at the chair 'there is the door.'
'I'll leave now but trust me Nemesis I always have got my answers.' I whispered and walked up to the office door.
'Sure, will remember Narcissus.' she muttered.
Narcissus. Perfect, she had a fucking nickname for me as well.
She was looking for a deal so I asked Angelo to search for whatever client she would like to buy from.
'Boss she's having dinner with Malik Savan.' Angelo said.
Just then when I was doing paperwork, Sloan walked in.
'Please tell me you aren't following this girl.'
'She knows something and I want to know.' I calmly said.
'You can just let someone else deal with-’ he began.
'She beat you up and I want to deal with her personally.'
'Personally' he mimicked.
I glared at him 'just because you're my best friend does not mean I will hesitate to use you as my punching bag. Clear?'
'Crystal' he said wriggling his eyebrows.
Just as I walked out, 'Try not to fall in love.'
'Fuck off.'
He howled with laughter as I left.
I walked into the restaurant after a half hour drive.
I saw Nemesis and she looked beautiful no doubt. I could see a couple of men eyeing her up. She was talking to Malik.
She was wearing a two-part top and skirt which came together with brown heels and a beige bag. She was no doubt stylish.
'Malik, long time no see friend.' I approached them and began a conversation with the man.
'This is Ms. Romano and Ms. Romano this is Jax Martinez.'
'We've met.' she commented in a melancholy tone.
'That's wonderful. Why don't you join us for dinner?' he asked me.
'I would love that.' I quickly relied before she could jump in to say something.
Time to bring hell to Nemesis' life.
We took our seats. I took mine with Nemesis by my side and Malik on the opposite facing us both. Clearly, she did not like the seating but she had to go along anyways.
He started talking about the land length with the details directing all the information to her and she was carefully paying attention adding along with more question planning how she would use the move.
Malik called the waiter to order and while he did that I leaned into her ear.
'You use your initiative and you're intelligent. Sounds like you're the perfect to keep a secret like the Black Hunter.' I whispered.
She scowled.
'And for the lady?' the waiter asked clearly eye fucking her.
'I'll have spaghetti bolognese please.'
'Mmmhm. Any drinks?' He said while his eyes roamed onto the rest of her body.
'She'll have a scotch on rocks, won't you Nem?'
She clearly was frustrated with me but agreed in the end with a simple nod.
I was observant especially when she was around and clearly already knowing her favourites.
'So Jax how is business right now?'
'It's alright.' I began and continued on talking.
While Malik was talking, I could see Nemesis staring out of the window clearly bored out of her mind.
I slowly creeped my hands against her knees and she gulped.
I have an effect on her and damn I love that she reacted to my touch.
I went ahead and traced my fingers on her knee and made my way up, making circles. I wasn't making eye contact with her since I was listening to Malik but I hadn't forgotten her.
Reina's Point of ViewElectrical impulses were the only thing that sparked when he brushed his fingers across my inner thigh and knees. I know I should not be liking but I can't help it.He was the only one that did this. I seduce plenty of men but none of them felt like him. He was different but I have no clue how and in what way.Just then, Malik excused himself to go to the restroom.'Get your stinky hands off my clean body.' I snarled grabbing his hands off.'You liked it.' he stated smirking.Fucking hell, the amount of energy it takes me to restrain from killing him will eventually kill me.'I did not.' I growled.'Then why didn't you remove it?''I won't make a scene for you. Narcissus, you're just a cocky arrogant pig that has no life except stalking poor girls like me. ''Nem darling you love the sexual tension.' he said while smiling cockily.Payback's a bitch.When Malik came back, he began talking to both of us once again but once he engages with Narcissus it was the time
Reina's Point of ViewI turned him on and left.God, I love myself. He thought I was quiver at the sense of his touch but let that be a lesson to not play a game with someone that can most definitely play it better than you no matter what.I wish I caught his face on camera it was absolutely priceless.But there was something else there.He wasn't wrong about the sexual tension as much as I would love to deny it. I felt it. He felt it and I also think Malik also felt it. No wonder he got uncomfortable from time to time.We’ll all I could say that it was between two people. One was outstandingly good looking while the other looked like absolute shit. There should be no confusion on who is who.Anyway, I went back to the hotel office to grab some of the paperwork to do at my house. I turned on the tv in the office room.'Good evening ladies and gentlemen, yesterday at 1am in the bar on the Egoless high way the Black Hunter strikes again. The police and detective on these cases are work
Reina's Point of ViewYes, call me crazy.I burned down my own house and hid behind the bushes to makes sure nothing remained.There was nothing remotely special about the place. No memories. Nothing. No significance in my life so why not?I went back to the hotel and stayed at the penthouse in the hotel. Might as well do the killing do the assassination hit tonight then. I took my laptop and researched the guy.I then found out where he would be tonight. Play boy and very extremely popular in Dip and Drinks. The infamous bar for manwhores.Perfect for manwhores but also perfect for criminals.Risky and troublesomeBut I love trouble; gives me the edge that no man or woman has ever given me.I needed something perfect for the seducing part.Bingo.A short silver dress with silver heels and a light denim blue jacket over.I would be able to snatch attention into minutes after I enter the club. I took my car and headed towards the club.I spotted my target and saw his eyes trail across
Reina's Point of ViewI felt like something hit me.But that was overtided with all the fury waving over me like a storm. Anger. Red. His eyes were red and my fury matched his own.He seems pretty engaged in a conversation with her as she twirled her own hair.I may have just been angry but I had to act rationally and with my brain and not let my emotion interfere with my actions.One thing that pa taught me.I left.I didn't care about him.Not now. Not then. Not ever.But there was a gut feeling down there.Something telling me he was more than just a man I knew but something else.Ignored.I have to look out for myself.That's how it has always been.Myself before others. I learnt that the hard way.I went to go outside. He wants a reaction he isn't getting one. Not from me anyway. He claimed me and then left to get a lap dance from another women. I had a cigarette in my hand puffing it aggressively while I was trying to find my car.It wasn't there. Not where I parked it but
Jax's Point of ViewAfter my little moment with Nemesis at the club, I watched her every moved until a brunette decided it would be the perfect time to sit on my lap.Just as I was talking to her with disgust on how desperate she was for a lay I lost my vision on her.Only 10 minutes later I had found out she had left.I see there is no point in being here since my reunion with Antonio had finished.I went to grab my car only to see three of my tyres punctured and the whole car was keyed in a straight line.Guess who? Nemesis, obviously.She has revenge, but little does she know that I can play it better than she has ever seen before.So, I took my phone out and called one of my men to come and drive me home. And they did as I said.I entered the house and went straight for the garage.I heard footsteps which intrigued me and stepped faster to see who it was.I walked in and all I see was blown out tyres and scratched windows.I know it's her. Once again, she outplays me.She will ne
Reina's Point of ViewI opened my eyes. I looked around and I saw Narcissus driving a car.Oh Lord.I haven't seen him since I jumped out of the window after humiliating him once again. I think that is my hidden talent.I saw him at the club where he was blatantly staring at me as if I killed all of his family.He watched the whole commotion incident from a very far distance.But the last thing I remember is cutting the call on Serephina because I heard footsteps.His footsteps. And he attacked me from behind.And now we are here. In his car. I looked at my hands and legs.They were chained to the car's door.What idiot has a chain in his car? Of course, he does.They were thick chains that I would not be able to get out with and it was an absolute no from me because the owner of the fucking chains was sitting next to me.God, it very genuinely sounded like I was a dog and he was my owner. I was on a fucking leash so that he could control me.What in the literal world is going on?
Reina's Point of ViewIn case you haven't realised, I lie my way out of things like these.It was a thing since I was little. You have to know the secrets.They know if you're lying according to your heart pulse. And when you are lying your body automatically picks up his pulse. So, you have to make your body believe every lie as if it were a truth.Just like pa said 'lies roll of my tongue.'He was in shock. He kept harassing me to seek answers about who the Black Hunter was but I had apparently didn't know anything about it.He looked at the polygraph tester. 'You best not be lying to me Steven or you are dead meat.' he growled viciously at the man.'I'm not boss, I promise you I'm reading it right.'The polygraph test is never wrong but it can be outsmarted and that is exactly what I did.'Let's try something else then.' he stated.'Do you like me?''What does that have to do with the Black Hunter?' I questioned as it took me by surprise.'Answer it Nemesis.''No.''Truth.''Do yo
Jax's Point of ViewI carried her in my arms and put her back in the car. Oh, how tempted I was to not chain her up and gag her. She didn't know the Black Hunter. The polygraph test never lies so she must be telling the truth. No way in hell can anyone outsmart the test.It was the most reliable way of finding out of information.Ok maybe not, there is the torturing side of it all but I wouldn't dare lay a hand on her on any women in any sort of cases with no exception to the case.But she knew something that is meant to be a secret and I plan on finding out.After all, I am the most ruthless guy in the whole of America.So, I needed to be close around her so I can keep a personal eye on her.'Sloan, tell the men to get Nem-Reina Romano's belonging out of her house into mine and then burn the whole thing.' I ordered and cut the call before any of his sneaky remarks could be heard.I held a cloth to her face which would sedate for about 6 to 7 hours at the least.Enough time to get he
