Coming Home For Christmas

"BESIDES, IF YOU DON'T LIKE HOW I LOOK THEN JUST ‘WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE WHAT OUR PRINCIPESSA LOOKS LIKE BECAUSE HER OUTFIT IS WAY SEXIER THAN MINE, SO MUCH SO THAT IT MAY CAUSE YOU TO HAVE AN EMBOLISM!" "WHAT?" Thanks Cassidy, you b***h “I take it Cassidy hasn't leaned the Omerta yet" Isay while rolling my eyes and rubbing my forehead in frustration as Logan chuckles slightly

“Babe, I don't think the Omerta works here considering it's a code of silence and Klayton was gonna see what you look like regardless of whether Cassidy threw you under the bus or not" "Hmm, I guess so" “LACEY OLIVIA ANTONELLI CARPENTER BLACK, GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!" Klayton growls and I close my eyes while groaning Great just f=****g great You know my cousin is really pissed when he throws every name associated with you out there when he addresses

you "DON'T KEEP ME WAITING, PRINCIPESSA!!" Urgh!! “Let's go, babe, it's better to rip off the bandaid than hesitate" “You're right" Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. wy I grab hold of my bag making sure I've got everything before accepting Logan's waiting hand and leaving our bedroom Iwas feeling even more anxious than I was before and I knew it was because my cousin was gonna hit the roof when he saw my outfit which isn't that sexy or risque, it's just revealing which won't sit well with Klayton

“Relax babe, you look beautiful" “Thank you, baby" Logan pecks my lips before we descend down our stairs Ikept my eyes focused on anything but the angry, dominant Don who was waiting at the bottom of the stairs for me

Even when I heard an angry groan coming from Klayton, I still didn't look at him because [ was afraid that I'd either lose my footing or I'd become so nervous that my legs would turn to jelly and I'd fall down the stairs “You've got to be kidding me, is this your f***g idea, kitten?" “Of course it was” Cassie says proudly earning another groan from her husband “rk my life, Cassidy, she looks like a fucking."

“Say it, I dare you, Klayton Antonelli" Cassidy glared at her husband who matched her glare with one of his own as his jaw clenched together “Lacey looks stunning and her outfit is perfect for tonight” “Thank you, Cassie, you look gorgeous as well” “Thanks, babe” Cassie said whilst smiling excitedly She's wearing a bright red, bodycon mini dress which has got two

Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. wy straps crossing over her boobs and going around her neck like a halter top showing off some major cleavage and the girl had the nerve to say my outfit was sexier

She's paired this dress with a pair of silver strappy heels With the straps wrapping around her ankles and a silver clutch bag Cassie's also wearing a wig which is similar to mine except her wig is black, her make-up is a natural look with some silver eyeshadow and a black cat eye on her eyes and bright red lipstick and her nails are bright red as well “You look like a Russian spy, Cass” “Thanks, Lo" Cassie says while posing with her hands on her hips as she pouted her lips

“So, care to explain why you've got us wearing wigs and why we're matching in red and black?"

“Red and Black are Trevor's favourite colours and the wigs are just for fun" Cassie says with a wink and I smile at her “How do you know what that asshole's favourite colours are?" Klayton growled at his wife who rolled her eyes in annoyance at him “Katerina told me" "How is Kat?" “She's coping”

“Yeah as well as a person can when they've found out their spouse is a lying sack of s**t" Cassie snarled Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. we “So, what's the plan for tonight?" Logan asks as his hand tightens against mine I knew he was feeling anxious about tonight and I wanted to give him as much comfort as possible, so I closed the space between us and wrapped my arms around his waist as [rested my head against his chest

“Well, Lacey is gonna leave with Eddie who should be here in around ten minutes” Klayton said while looking at his watch

"Once they leave, we'll follow them to the club and that's when the games begin” “And everything's set up, right?” “Yes, everything is set up, Lo, all of our men are in their positions both in and outside of the club, Marcus is also there with Layla's friend in an SUV to make sure everything runs smoothly and that nobody out hacks them if that's even a word and the software is set up as well to assure we're in constant control of Trevor's system” Klayton says and Logan lets out a breath “Idon't like this" “I know you don't and neither do I but they'll be safe, they'll be surrounded by us and our men, not to mention

we'll always be able to contact them which reminds me, here you go, girls” Klayton says as he hands Cassidy and myself something which looks like a popcorn kernel “What the hell is this, Klay?" “It's an earpiece, we'll be able to hear everything through these and communicate with each other as well” Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. ga me"

“Wait, you're telling me this teeny tiny thing can do all of that?" lask in shock “You'll be surprised what something small can do, Lacey baby, trust Cassidy says earning a glare from Klayton as Logan chuckles behind his fist I would've scolded my husband but I received a phone call from Eddie which immediately caused my body to stiffen

"Hello" “Hey, I'm outside, are you ready?" “As ready as I'l ever be" Isay whilst putting the earpiece in my ear “I'll be out in a minute" "Ok, Lace" Thang up the call and grimace in disgust at him calling me Lace “That man gives me the creeps”

"T know but you only have to deal with him for a couple of hours, principessa and then you never have to see him again after that" “I hope 50" I say before kissing Logan "Ok, scoot but before you do, pin this to you" "What is it?" "It's a brooch with a camera installed in it so that we can see everything you see”

Jesus I guess Cassie was right and you really can do a lot with something so Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. WZ small "You can see everything? even when I pee?" ask with a smirk and Klayton grimaces "Yes unfortunately just cover the camera up when you do that, Lace” “Gross”

I'scrunch my face up in disgust matching Klayton's expression as Cassie and Logan chuckle “Anyway, I better go, I don't wanna keep captain creepy pants waiting any longer" “Ok, be safe, babe" “Twill Ikiss Logan one last time before leaving our home I closed the door and had to take a deep breath in and slowly release it to keep myself calm when I heard a whistle followed by Eddie's voiceCòntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“Damn girl, you scrub up well" “Thank you, Eddie” I'said through gritted teeth as I tried my hardest to smile naturally which wasn't easy considering Eddie was currently looking me up and down with a dirty smirk on his lips and with what I assume is lust in his eyes “After you, my lady" Eddie says as he holds the car door open for me “Thanks” I get in the car as ladylike as I can without flashing Eddie

Once we were both in the car, the driver set off and my nerves started to get stronger Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. wy “So..what's gonna happen when we get there?" “Trevor has given me strict orders to take you to one of his VIP rooms and he's asked me to watch over you until he's available to come and be with you"

“Wow, 50 I got all dressed up looking hot just to sit alone in some room?" I ask feigning annoyance and anger "It's not just some room, sweetheart, Trevor's VIP rooms are always grand and it's got a balcony as well so you can look out at the rest of the club” “Sounds like fun" “Oh trust me, honey, it will be" Eddie whispers in my ear earning a very angry response from my husband which luckily alone I can hear

"GET AWAY FROM MY WIFE, ASSHOLE!! AND STOP CALLING HER PET NAMES!!" Relax baby, please relax Do you want some champagne?” "Sure" Hopefully, some champers will help calm my nerves “So tell me, are you friends with Trevor?” “Of course not, why do you ask?"

Eddie scoffs as he hands me my drink “Well because you work for my cousin and you're offering to take me to his enemy's club so that I can give myself up to him...if we hadn't caught the mole already then I'd think you were him" I'say with a slight chuckle as I watch Eddie whose body had stiffened Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. YY at what I said “Are you ok?" “Yeah, I was just thinking about something, that's all”

"What were you thinking about?" I ask Eddie who looks at me with a conflicted expression “It's just something Klayton told me...I didn't think he was serious but then I realised he was" “What do you mean? what did Klayton say?" “He erm..well, I told him about you planning to give yourself up to Trevor. felt guilty about talking you into it and hoped Klayton would be able to stop you but he..he said...” Eddie drifted off and I acted like I was desperate to know even though I knew he was talking out of his ass

“Klayton told me he didn't care" "What?" “You heard me, Lace, he said he doesn't care if you give yourself up or not, actually, I think his words were if she wants to be a reckless b***h who wants to enter the lion's den and end up raped or murdered then so be it" Wow “I never f***+g said that Lacey, I swear it" “I know, Klay"

“Huh, what did you say?" Suet, / didn’t mean to say that out loud I thought to myself as I looked up at Eddie who was looking at me confused Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. oa

"I said that sounds like Klay...people think he isn't a heartless bastard with the ones he loves, specifically me but he is" “I'm sorry, Lace” “Don't worry about it, 'm done with Klayton Antonelli" Tsay as I finish off my drink We arrived at the club around thirty minutes after setting off and my eyes widened when I saw the gothic-style building with red lights set up to light it up perfectly, a red carpet which had a huge line of people standing on it and from where I'm sitting the windows either looked like they were tinted or they had some really good curtains or blinds

because they look as black as night “We're here, are you ready?” “Yeah” I'say while nodding my head “Good, let's go" Eddie gets out of the car and comes around to my side to open the door

He offered me his hand which I hesitantly accepted because a mixture of booze and nerves was making my legs feel like jelly “Why is everyone wearing masks?" I ask Eddie as he leads us over to the entrance “Anonymity, not everyone who likes to come to s*x clubs wants everyone to know that they like to go to s* clubs” “Then why come?” Task him and he chuckles

“Because of the thrill and the adrenaline rush you can get from being in a place like this"

“Are you being serious?" “Of course I am, s* is a rush in enough itself but s*x in a place like this is a whole other level” /f you say so “Hey, is the boss in?" Eddie asks the doorman and he nods his head “He's just arrived" “Good” “Enjoy your night Mr Leone and Mrs Black"

The doorman says as he opens the door for us We headed inside and I was glad it was so dark in here because my cheeks were redder than my lipstick when I saw what was going on in the club “I think these people are taking Usher's song a little too seriously” “Ever heard of exhibitionism and voyeurism?” “Huh, have I heard of what?" Task him and he chuckles

“Exhibitionism and voyeurism...some people like to f**k in public and some people like to watch” “Kinky fuckers” Isay with a smirk and he laughs "Come on, sweetheart" Eddie grabs hold of my hand and takes us to Trevor's VIP room which was void of life thank god “Wow, this place looks like a sx dungeon with a bar"

"It's nothing you haven't seen before" Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. LY He says and I narrow my eyes at him in confusion “What do you mean by that?” “Your boat, remember?" Oh +k yeah How could I forget about that?

“Well, this is nothing like what Logan and I have got, for example, there isn't a balcony where peeping toms down below can watch us” “Trevor likes the thrill of being watched, Lace, especially when he's with a beautiful woman” Eddie says whilst licking his lower lip “How would you know what he likes?" Task him and he scoffs “Look around you, sweetheart, any man who has clubs like this must have one hell of a kinky side to him"

That's true “Anyway, I'm gonna go and get the guest of honour himself, you just stay here and make yourself comfortable, ok, we'll be back soon” “ok Eddie leaves the room and I let out a breath as I walk over to the balcony and place my hands on the metal railing Iwas alone for a few minutes before I heard the door opening and I closed my eyes as dread filled my stomach thinking it was Trevor but it wasn't, it was someone else

"Hey there, Lacey" I turned around and saw a strange man wearing a silver mask, black pants, shoes and a bow tie but no shirt giving me a glorious view of his buff tattooed body Chapter 52 - Extra Insurance. a “Who are you? and how do you know my name?" “Let's just say I'm Cassidy's extra insurance for tonight" He says with a smirk and I narrow my eyes at him suspiciously

“Really? and does Cassidy's extra insurance have a name or should 1 just call you hot shirtless guy?" I ask with a smile earning an angry groan from my husband which I chose to ignore “You could” He said with a chuckle as he walked over to me and grabbed hold of my hand before lifting it up to his mouth and kissing my knuckles “But I'd much prefer you call me Carter instead"
