Chapter 13
Danielâs POV
It couldnât be true.
What was I?
Daniel Lockwood the owner of several underworld drug companies and the one who is feared throughout the underworld, their mafia was tricked by a stupid affection for a blond bitch.
My blood ran cold when I looked back at the sour thought, my brother Luke had to save me. I never asked for help, fuck I didnât need help from my brother and my poor wife.
Why the fuck didnât she tell me?
She did, you were just a stubborn bastard who didnât listen.
I punched the bag again, and again, and again until my knuckles were slowly seeping red and the pain hit my side. Two fucking weeks, it took me two fucking weeks to get out of my stupid trance and get moving.
TWO.
FUCKING.
WEEKS.
This made me punch the bag even more, whatâs worse is that I didnât even get to see Sidney. Hell, I wasnât sure I wanted to see her but for some reason her image couldnât be erased from my mind and it fucking stung so much.
Every time I thought of her, bitter memories come back I needed to get laid, and fast.
Stripping off my shirt, I headed for the shower bumping into Nate on the way. The guy didnât look half as good as he use to, we needed to go out and have fun I thought.
âYou need to find her,â Nate clicked his fingers in front of me, âwho knows where she could be and how...,â he drifted off and wore a pained looked on his face. Clenching my knuckles I held my anger in,
âNo,â I replied coldly, âshe went off on her own and itâs not our fault, get ready in ten minutes weâre going out,â I slapped his back lightly and jogged upstairs to my room.
What happens if your enemy gets to her ?
No one wants her, sheâs better off hidden and out of trouble. The cold water ran down my skin as I stood in the shower letting the aqua droplets hit against my skin, I wasnât going to sit around anymore because that wasnât how Daniel Lockwood was known.
Cold.
Ruthless.
Unforgiving.
Iâll be just that.
Iâll show people that just because one blond bitch stabbed me in the heart didnât mean anything to me.
Iâll show them what happens when people mess with me, a bullet will pierce their soul and blood will pour out mercilessly. Pulling over a grey shirt, some black jeans and my black jacket I made my way out towards my brilliant selection of cars.
Twirling the keys in my hands I smirked, girls get ready for the new and improved Lockwood on its way. Grinning as I hopped into my Ferrari I looked over towards Nate who was still looking gloomy which made me angry,
âDude stop being so glum,â I groaned, âtonight weâll have fun okay?â Nate nodded his head but was still in his own trance.
We arrived at the club, pushing past the crowd I could feel the girls hungry glare on me while some didnât hide their affection as they tried touching me. Smirking and winking at them I headed to the VIP entrance with Nate closely behind me who wasnât enjoying the attention just as much as I was.
Looking around I saw that most people were aware of my presence and came to greet me, just how I liked it.
âGo and get laid man,â I told Nate before heading towards the bar myself, ordering four shots I sat with my allies and started talking.
âGuess whose back in town?â one of the guys asked, drowning my second shot I slammed it on the table and asked,
âWho the hell is back in town?â I smirked; no one could ever live if encountered with my gang. We were known for never leaving anyone alive; ruthless we were just how I liked it.
âOur old friend Victor,â my blood ran cold, the music slowed down and memories flashed back.
âHow dare that bastard come back?â I growled, kicking the chair back up I grabbed any girl and dragged her outside with me.
âAww whatâs wrong baby?â her voice made me cringe but I ignored it as I explored her mouth, impatiently I asked her,
âYour place or mine?â she giggled waving her keys in the air she had a driver, impressive.
We slid in the back and I didnât waste any time, she moaned at everything. This girl needed to shut up, we hurried into the apartment and into the bedroom in no time.
She stripped off her clothes and was now lying in her bra and panties; she kissed me like her life depended on it. Every time I touched her I was reminded of Sidney, her strawberry scent, angelic voice and flawless body.
Fuck, focus Dan you are not with her. She isnât here and you canât have her anymore.
We had sex five times, until the woman passed out. I lay next to her, thinking about what just happened.
Getting out of the bed, I grabbed my clothes sliding them on easily. Even after getting laid I couldnât get Sidney out of my head I needed her in front of me right now, but most of all my conscious told me something I didnât want to hear.
Victor will get her before you, just like heâs always done.
Clearing my head, I walked out on the streets for half the night until I made a decision. I was going to keep a close eye on her; if anyone was going to have her it was going to be me. This time I will not be beaten at my own girl.
Sidneyâs POV
I was stressed, my head was about to explode any minute but I had to keep on working; I needed the money at any cost. Gulping down the whole glass of water I hung up my apron, signing out of my cafe duty. This was my third job, one at a cafe the other at a book store and the last was I dreaded the most was at a club.
Sighing I walked down the dark street towards the club, the music was already blaring and slutty women with dresses barely covering their butts where trying to get in.
Disgusted I headed towards the working entrance, punching in the pin code I was allowed to enter in no time. Upon my entrance I was greeted with a mid-forties looking man who held out the uniform in one hand and a cigarette in another.
Holding my breath, I signed the sheet and took the dressed nodding my thanks. Coughing as I reached the changing room, I stared at my reflection in the mirror. What had become of me?
My eyes wore a tired look, my face looked physically drowned and my back was killing me every second I breathed but still ignoring everything I changed into the dress which was a little tight, the way they wanted every waiter to dress and applied the makeup in the room.
Looking half decent, I went out to do my last job. Only another four hours to go then you can go home at eleven.
Home you ask, yes I had managed to get a small room on rent but it wasnât big. Heck, it hardly had any extra space, just a bed and one small draw it was smaller than the size of a box room but I was grateful. I had to be grateful for it, unless I wanted to go back into the warehouse I slept the other night.
Drinks, thatâs all people ever ordered. Plastering a fake smile on my face I headed out, my hair bounced up and down to the beat of the music which wasnât half bad. Slutty girls, gangs, sweaty bodies you name it they were all in this club.
Two hours of serving drinks I was exhausted, and I wasnât even doing much. My body needed to restore its energy; it wasnât until after my break that I headed out.
It didnât just drain my energy, it broke me down. Everything stopped, there stood Daniel with his arms wrapped around a random girl sticking his tongue down her mouth, I felt used.
A single tear of regret rolled down my cheek, I stood there paralyzed watching as she giggled at a question he asked her. They both hopped into a car that came up onto the curb, he tugged her into the car and it whisked away.
I stared into the distance as the car started up, slowly driving away from me as it got smaller and smaller until no more of it was left to see, nothing but the cold empty night.
âHey gorgeous,â a guy slurred, wrapping his arms around me I froze as his hands moved lower until I twirled around.
âLet go of me,â I struggled in his tight grip, his nails dug deep into my skin and I was sure that tomorrow there was going to be a bruise there. My whole body felt limp, more tears fell down as I tried to get out of his grip but he had me trapped against the wall.
âYou donât know how hot you look,â the guy stammered, âI want to bang you right here,â his hands grabbed my thigh but I screamed out and before I knew it he was on the floor.
âAre you deaf?â another voice spoke, âThe girl said no,â he punched the guy on the floor again before he passed out. Slowly he came over to me; I was shivering against the wall and clenched my eyes.
âHey, I wonât hurt you,â he touched my hand and I pulled back wincing, he was hard to read but I decided that I couldnât be bothered to care anymore.
âT-t-thank you...,â I said, he leaned forward and picked me up bridal style, I clutched onto him for dear life burying my head in his neck.
âItâs Victor,â he whispered, âand your very welcome,â with that I fainted, not knowing what was awaiting me.
