The club opened, but Victoria’s mood had dampened. She needed to relax before she headed downstairs to check out how things were going. She walked to Brandon’s room and sat next to him. Taking his hand in hers, she kissed his palm. She didn’t know what came over her, but she needed to feel his warmth.
Victoria laid next to him and looked at his almost perfect feature. “Please, come back to me” she whispered before drifting off to sleep.
She didn’t know how long she was out, but she felt some movement next to her. That woke her up right away and looked up to see Brandon looking down at her with a smile. Her heart was doing somersaults, and she couldn’t help but kiss him. She was desperate for his lips and she didn’t waste time in wanting to try them.
“How long was I out?” He asked with a raspy voice. Victoria stood up and took a glass of water from his end table and handed it to him to soak his dry throat.
“Not long, but it felt like that for me” she said as she helped him sit up. He put a strand of hair behind her ear and leaned for another kiss, this time it was a desperate one and she got carried away and before long she was straddling him. They were lost in each other’s touch that they had forgotten for a moment he was wounded. He started taking her top off and she had to stop him.
“Wait, we can’t do this. You’re wounded and I don’t want to hurt you” she said, but he didn’t care. Victoria put her hand on his chest and looked at him apologetically.
“Okay, I’m sorry I got carried away myself. I just can’t have enough of you. I want to make you mine, Victoria. I love you,” those three words made her freeze in place.
“What did you say?” she asked, shocked at his confession “Brandon, you can’t say that. You can’t love me, we are just having fun”
“But I do. I have since the first day I’ve started working for you. It was love at first sight and I know you feel it too, but you’re too stubborn to admit it. I can see the way you react to me, the way your body reacted to my touch the other day in that bathtub”
“It was a normal reaction. Any man who would touch me down there would cause that” she said, trying to deny how much he affected her. She was about to leave, when he held her back.
“Please honey. Let me have this moment, I want to feel you, to touch you”
“Brandon stop, I promise when you feel better we can do all those things, but now you need to recover” she said, getting off him and putting her top on, “and when we do, I am sure you wouldn’t want to end it” she smirked at him, helping him lay down again. He chuckled softly and a sharp pain case to his chest.
“I’m sorry, my love. I guess I’m a brute” she said, why was she showing this side of her? He was just another guy who worked for her. One she was dying to have on top of her. No feelings allowed, then why was her heart beating fast every time she was near him? And why was she highly worried when Rogelio carried him inside, wounded?
"I have been the only one left to make you feel good. I am sure the DJ already had you" she sensed some jealousy and couldn't help but laugh. She walked to him and leaned, brushing her lips on his.
"Yes, he did. Just earlier actually, but to be honest, I can't wait for you. And I am going to tell you something, you are not the only one left to make me feel good. You made me see the clouds the other day," she claimed his lips again. He pulled away and cupped her cheeks.
"I can't wait either, but I want it to be special. I told you already, I don't want s*x, I want to make love to you and I am sure you won't have enough and will come back for more," he said grabbing her hair and pulling her back to him.
"Cocky much? I thought that was William's job" she said, making him laugh through the pain.
"I can be too, honey. But for you, I can be many things" those words made her smile and she couldn't hold it anymore. She sat on him again and started grinding against his pants, making him groan.
"Let me take over, okay. You just relax and enjoy" she said in a husky voice. She undressed again and helped him out of his pants. She put her head on his neck and started attacking him with kissed and love bites, like marking him as hers.
A knock interrupted them, and she groaned in frustration. Rogelio was standing by the door.
"Am I interrupting something?" he asked as Victoria looked at him with murderous eyes.
"Yes, in fact you are. What is it?" she asked, getting off Brandon, leaving him with blue balls and putting her clothes on.
"A fight broke out and we need you down there" he said as she walked past him, giving him an angry glare. He looked at Brandon, who shrugged his shoulders and gave him a smile.
"If you want her that bad, at least wait until you recover" he said, shaking his head and following her. Victoria headed downstairs, and her guards were holding the guy who started the fight. Everyone knew Victoria's reputation, and the guy was shaking in fear.
"Easy, love. Why are you shaking? Do I scare you?" she asked as he nodded, looking down. She approached him and whispered in his ear, "you know I don't like when people start trouble in my club. Not only my reputation goes to trash, but the other patrons can't enjoy a good night out. My property also gets damaged, and you have no idea how much it costs to buy them again"
"I am sorry, Miss Cervantes. I won't cause trouble," he said.
"Of course you won't. Because you won't come back here anymore. And you should be thankful it is not convenient for me to call the cops. So do me a favor, honey, and leave," she patted his cheek hard enough to deliver the message. He quickly stood from the chair they had him and ran out of the club.
"Well, people. If you want to keep having fun, you are more than welcome to. If not, the door is right there, you can go," she said, signaling William to resume the music. Patrons forgot about the fight and kept dancing.
"Good control, baby" Rogelio said, and she just shrugged her shoulders.
"Of course, everything that belongs to me is under my control. Don't you forget that, baby" she said as he grabbed her by her waist and turned her around while pinning her against the wall.
"And what if I tell you, I want to be in control of you," he said and that made her give him a smile full of sarcasm.
"That is where you are wrong. You won't be able to control me. Get off that cloud now, or you might fall"
