Axel P.O.V

Maverick was extremely pissed off early this morning. Apparently someone had blew up his shipment of drugs costing him hundreds of thousands of dollars. Not only did they interfere with his drug operation, they also beat some of his high end strippers. To say he was furious would be an understatement.

I had to go investigate the issues with the strippers. Apparently guys in Presidents mask beat a couple of the girls up. They gave them black eyes, cracked jaws and broken ribs. Mav wants me to head over to Kitten Claws in a couple days, he said something about waiting until the heat died down.

Maverick was becoming suspicious of any and everyone. I can't say I blame him considering only a select few people in the club knew we were silent partners of Kitten Claws. I brought the cigarette up to my lips and filled my lungs with its cancerous toxics.

Transparent vapor formed in the air, slapping me back in the face as the wind refused to blow the smoke in a different direction. I was currently on my balcony relieving some stress from my tense body. An instant calm invaded my lungs, I plugged the cigarette in between my lips as I took my jacket off.

The club had all of our jackets custom made by a one of a kind creator. The club attire came in shirts, pants, vest and jackets. My jacket was different from majority of Dark Howlers, the only people who jackets were close in resemblance to mine was the top of the food chain members.

A big black wolf on the back with Dark Howlers on the top and California at the bottom. On the front was our patches my specific jacket had Vice President and my last name on the left. On the right was our city and second generation. The second generation patch was so everyone knew I was Mavericks kid.

Although Maverick isn't my real father he taught and raised me in his image and as far as I'm concerned he is the closes thing to a father I'll ever have. He'll always have my loyalty above all others. I finally finished my cigarette, after putting it out and dumping it in the ashtray I went to see what was taking Manny so long.

"Wow I can't believe it Ax actually got laid," I heard Manny talking. Was he talking to himself? "I always thought he was gay and didn't want to get caught so he pledged celibacy."

"He definitely is not gay." I froze. Shit I thought as soon as I heard her voice. I didn't expect them to get here as quickly as they did.

"Damn it that means I lost the bet." He groaned as soon as I rounded the corner and found myself in my living room.

"What bet?" I questioned.

"The bet questioning your sexuality." He responded nonchalantly. He turned around on the couch and looked at me with mischievousness.

"I'm not gay," I replied before slapping the back of his head and grabbing a beer off the table. "Just because I don't go sticking my junk in any and every willing girl doesn't make me gay."

"True but you and Nate have a very affectionate relationship." He raised an eyebrow at me.

"Alright Pinocchio," I rebutted. Manny loved arguments he called it live entertainment. I popped opened my beer and was getting ready to down the bottle when I felt two pair of eyes on me. "Shit."

The girl on the right I have never seen before, she had blue eyes, blonde hair and appeared as if she was curvy under the loose fitting black shirt and baggy joggers. Reign was sitting next to her, her hair was different today it looked puffier and held no curls.

She appeared nervous as she brought her bottom lip in between her teeth. Her leg was bouncing up and down as she avoided making eye contact with me. I scrunched my eyebrows together, maybe she's nervous because one night stands aren't suppose to meet after they have sex.

Maybe she was nervous because she cheated on her boyfriend. Well I guess he is her boyfriend considering he kept texting her all day asking her where was she and telling her how much he loves her. Jensen, I believe that's his name considering the prick couldn't stop texting her.

I slept with a girl that's in a relationship. I was unsure how to feel, sure I've slept with taken women before but this felt different I felt different. I sighed it's not any of my business I can't afford any complications right now anyway. I have way too much going on last thing I need is to be in the middle of a lovers spat.

The blonde nudged Reign in her side causing Reign to nudge her back. They held a mini stare down before the blonde rolled her eyes and looked at Manny who was talking about something completely irrelevant to this situation. Reign smiled at the mini victory revealing her dimples she had no problem showing me this morning.

A light chuckled came out of me as I threw my head back and gulped half of the beer bottles.

"So I guess you do always get what you want?" I raised an eyebrow at the question I directed at her.

"Always is too strong of a word let's go with ninety five percent of the time."

""Ninety nine percent." Her friend mumbled.

"Why not a whopping hundred percent?" Manny asked.

"I can convince my brother to cave on a lot of things but sometimes he denies my wishes." She shrugged as soon as she replied.

I tilted my head to the side and tried to figure Reign out. She was a funny, and chill girl no doubt and I enjoyed her company. For some reason I could hear Maverick voice telling me to be careful who I trust. I pushed the old fool out of my head as I realize I was probably overreacting.

I tend to overthink and analyze everything which is partially why I'm the Vice President because of my smart decisions. I was drawn to this girl and for some reason I wanted to get to know her. For once in my life I was going to take a leap of faith without examining every detail.

"You probably would like your phone back?" I questioned.

Her eyes widen before they narrowed. "Yes I would like my cracked phone back."

"I got it in my room," I raised an eyebrow. "You remember the way?"

She gave me a skeptical look. "Yes I remember the way."

I watched her as she stood up from her spot on my black couch. My eyes traveled down her body as she walked passed me and brushed her hand across mine as she headed towards my room. Manny had replaced Reign as she slithered up against her friend and began hitting on her.

While they were distracted, I followed behind Reign. She was pulling her IPhone off of my charger when I walked into the room.

"What are you doing?" She spoke as soon as she turned around.

I was currently blocking the door so she couldn't leave the room. "Negotiating."

"I don't think you understand the rules for one night stands." She replied as she placed both hands on each sides of her hips.

"One night stands must be a regular thing for you." I replied with a hint of anger.

"Actually," She was now standing in front of me with a look of fire in her eyes. "You're my first and last one night stand, because so far one night stands seem almost as complicated as relationships."

"Have another drink with me?" I asked.

She scoffed. "I can't."

"Why?"

"Axel you're a great guy," She said as she slipped her hands in her pink jacket. "My life is way to complicated right now."

I stepped closer to her, one arm was placed around her waist and the other one was behind her head. I pulled her closer to me, she wasn't short by a long shot maybe around five foot eight. I leveled myself so my lips graced her ear as I whispered my request in her ear.

"One drink," I whispered in her ear. "If you don't want to get drinks call me. I took the liberty of calling myself so you would have my number."

"How did you unlock my phone?" She questioned.

"Manny."

"Are you going to elaborate?"

"Maybe," I responded. "Maybe not, give me a call and I might tell you."

After saying my peace we stared at one another before our alarms started blaring. Alerting us to our awaiting phone calls. I sighed and released her from my grasp and answered the phone.

"What?" I answered.
