Killer Crown 44 Chapter 44: Kingdom Krashing

"Any questions ma'am?"

"Just call me Kaz and uh, why is everyone looking at me?"

He chuckles nervously,

"That's because you're the first lady and you're working here...at the wear house."

"Well I suggest you all get used to it, because until I find what i'm here for, i'm not leaving!"

I make sure I speak loud enough for all the men to hear,

"Now, what should I do first?"

"Toni, ven aquí!"

(Toni, come here!)

He waves over a tall, s.h.i.+rtless, and muscular man with jet black hair and sparkling pale blue eyes. He jogs over towards us and holds at his hand,

"Sup, i'm Toni."

I take his hand,

"Kaz."

"Entonces eres la esposa de Ricky, ¿eh? Ese hijo de puta afortunado."

(So you're Ricky's wife, huh? That lucky motherf.u.c.ker.)

"Oye! She's you're new boss, show some respect."

I giggle and little bit,

"It's fine, I don't mind. Shall we go, Toni?"

"Después de ti hermosa."

(After you beautiful.)

We spent the rest of the day talking and going over what to do.

It's been a few weeks now, Toni and I really connected, I felt as if I made a real friend. He's kind and a little flirty but I don't mind, his intentions are pure.

***

"Just listen! I've almost got her. She has no idea that it's me, she thinks i'm her friend...hold up someone's here."

'Toni?'

He opens the old door of the office and steps inside. He tires to slide his phone back into his pocket without me seeing.

"¿Qué sigues haciendo aquí, cariño?"

(What are you still doing here, honey?)

"Oh, Toni. I was just finis.h.i.+ng up these files. What about you?"

He tires to slide his phone back into his pocket without me seeing.

'Why was he trying to hide his phone and who was he talking to?'

"Sometimes I stay here when everyone else leaves. It's kinda nice when it's empty."

"Really? It's creepy as h.e.l.l at night."

"Heh, c'mon. I wanna show you something."

He leans up against they door frame showing off his toned arms.

"Y-yeah, sure."

'What the h.e.l.l?! Why am I so nervous?'

He leads me to the loading docks and sits at the edge,

"Sit."

He pats the ground and sit down beside him.

"Now what is so nice about this?"

"Look up hun."

He tilts my head up towards the sky. It's filled with stars s.h.i.+ning like diamonds and moon is full. It looks extra bright tonight.

"Wow...this just,"

"I know. Not so creepy now is it?"

"No..."

We happen to lock eyes. He lingers but I look away,

"I should get going. Ricky's probably looking for me."

I get up to leave but he grabs my hand,

"Hey, don't leave now! We were having a good time."

"Maybe next time Toni, i've really gotta go."

"Ah ok. Well can I at least give ya a ride home?"

"I'll be fine, thanks though."

I turn to leave but I can feel his eyes piercing the back of my head.

's.h.i.+t, it's him. G.o.dd.a.m.nIT WHY HIM?!'

I call down a cab and get in.

"Where to ma'am?"

"The Hernandez Mansion."

***

"Hey babe, how was work? Any new information?"

I flop down on Ricky's lap,

"Today was my last day. I know all I need to know."

He plays in my hair,

"Really?"

"Mhm, do you know Toni?"

"Uh, he's the tall one with a tan right?"

"Yup. He tried to 'get me to stay late', if ya know what I mean."

"I'll kill him."

"No need, tomorrow i'm going back to pick up my things. I'm sure he'll be there so i'll use his attraction towards me to my advantage."

"Hmm, I don't like that Kaz."

"Doesn't matter. I have to do this and besides, Lina wants me to meet her tomorrow so we can plan the wedding."

He grins,

"G.o.d I feel like a little kid. I'm so excited."

I giggle a little bit,

"I'm excited too. You should come too."

"I'll drop by. Where you two meeting?"

"The cute little cafe down town."

"Ah, I know which one you mean."

He stands up and puts me over his shoulder in the blink of an eye.

"I'm guessing that you like to do this to p.i.s.s me off."

"Pretty much."

He smacks my behind,

"Hey! Don't do that!"

"Why not? You're mine."

***

"Buenos días, BB!"

(Good morning, BB!)

"Ahh, h.e.l.lo Kaz! You seem to be in a good mood today."

"Aye, today's my last day."

"Oh. Wait, does that mean you've found the-"

"Indeed. But please don't tell anyone else, I don't want to draw any attention to myself."

"V-very well."

I head over to the office and waiting for me inside is him.

"Mornin' gorgeous."

"Hey."

He gets up from behind the desk,

"Hey, what's up with you?"

"Nothing. I'm fine."

"I have six sisters, I know don't mean that. What's bugging you hun?"

"It's just..."

'Quick, think of a lie!'

"This girl I know. She's been in this relations.h.i.+p with her boyfriend for a year now and she just doesn't think that the chemistry they had when they first met us gone."

"Hmm."

"I'm sorry. My problems aren't yours."

"What, no. Back home I hear a lot of this talk. So what uh,"

He moves in closer,

'Dumba.s.s, this is way too easy.'

"What do you think is making her change her mind about him?"

"She says it's because of another man."

I bite down on my lip.

"Oh really?"

He reaches over and locks the door,

"And uh, is does she really want this other man?"

"Positive."

He leans in for a kiss but I turn away last second,

"Toni, I...I can't do this."

He puts his hand on my waist.

"So don't, let me do it for you babe."

'G.o.d, I wanna just strangle this f.u.c.king creep!'

I push him away from me,

"I think she'd leave him if she knew..."

"Knew what?"

"If she knew what he was hiding."

"Kaz, let me ask you a question. If your friend' knew everything about 'the other guy', she'd leave her boyfriend and get with me-I mean the other man?!"

"That's exactly what she'd do."

"Well tell her I said to meet him here."

He scribbles down an address on a sc.r.a.p of paper and puts it into my back pocket, making sure he rubs down on my a.s.s.

'Disgusting a.s.shole. You'll pay for this."
