Vanessa

It's 10:30 a.m. and I slowly descend from the car in the parking structure, the place where I'm meeting Shane.

Up until now, I still haven't been able to figure out what Dominic could be up to. He gave up so easily yesterday.

With me are four buff bodyguards, shielding me on all four sides at all times. I never want to get too comfortable while I know that Carmella could be up to something and all these assumptions have only been fueled by all the things Dominic has said to me.

Lowering my shades a little, I spot Shane standing in a corner with his hood over his head as he paces back and forth.

The sight of him is already infuriating but for now, I need to keep my composure until I can determine the right moment to act.

Just as I get closer, he notices me and licks his lips.

"I finally get to see you again, sexy."

The bodyguard on my left in the front, attempts to swing into action and Shane flinches as he takes a step back, but I stop my bodyguard when I tell him there's no need for that yet. He stops, unclenching his fists as he nods.

"Wow, your bodyguard was ready to fuck me up, huh?" Shane scoffs, acting cocky now that he won't be harmed.

"I still can't believe I had to come all this way just for you," I say to him. "What do you think you'll gain by doing all this?"

"Money, isn't it obvious to you? But you know what? I wouldn't mind having you as well. You were all over me that night at the club."

I wave my finger dismissively. "I don't even remember that part. I was drunk."

"It doesn't matter. You were still all over me until that bastard decided to ruin it. I'm curious. The fact that you came here to meet me, aren't you ashamed of yourself for covering up for him? I've come to realize the most wealthy people of this fucking world have no morals."

"Look who's talking." I smirk.

"Enough bullshit. It's a Friday and I intend to spend this cash like I don't give a damn about anything in this world, so hand it over now or I go to the press with what I know."
