Chapter 8

Ever since my last conversation with Wren, over a month ago, she has been on my mind. I've tried to shake her from my thoughts by keeping myself busy with work, but that only made it worse. Her views of me being this huge playboy actually bothers me and I have to thank Reese for that. Normally, I don't give two shits about what people think of me, but with her I do.

However, I have managed to talk to Reese a few times since my visit and told me him as well as Wren, have been swamped with work themselves. He also informed me that he is well aware that I am not calling to check in with him, but with Wren. How he manages to see right through me has always surprise me.

Since I'm finally caught up with work, I decided now would be a great time to check in with him. I grab my phone from my desk and find Reese's number. Just as I was about to call him, someone knocks on my office door. I wonder who that could be?

I placed my phone back on my desk and lean back in my chair. " It's open!"

The door opens and Penelope walks in. Honestly, she is the last person I want to see. Penelope, is one of my highly recommended dancers and the occasional booty calls that I have been a voiding for weeks now.

"What can I do for you Pen?" I sigh.

"I've missed you! I haven't seen you in weeks," she pouts and walks seductively around the desk, placing herself between it and me.

She slowly lifts herself so that she is sitting on my desk. "Don't you miss me baby?" She spreads her legs wide for me to see her freshly shaved sex. This would normally be a turn on for me, but it isn't anymore.

She smiles down at me and begins around her perfectly manicured fingers between her fake breast, to her stomach until she reaches her core.

"You know you want to fuck me," she tells me and begins to rub herself.

Really I don't.

She reaches into the top drawer of my desk and retrieves a condom. I lean forward, placing my hands on her knees and glance up at her. The pleasing look on her face, that normally satisfies me, triggers something deep within me. Somethings she's not going to like.

I push her knees together, and lean back in my chair. "Get off my desk," I tell her harshly. The smile she once had was replaced with a scowl and her once last filled eyes are now cold.

"What?" She asks in disbelief.

I know I didn't stutter.

"Get. Off. My. Desk."

She slides off my desk and straightens her black dress that barely covers her. I can't believe I found that attractive.

"What is wrong with you," she hisses.

The last time I checked, I don't have to answer to anyone. I stand from my seat and look down on her small figure.

"I don't want to fuck you right now. Actually, I'm done with this!"

Hurt crosses her face. She knew coming into this, that 'this' was just a fling. No strings attached. She opens her mouth to say something, but is cut off by a knock at the door.

"This better be important."

The door knob jiggles. Pen, must have locked the door when she shut it. I sigh and make my way to the door swinging it open.

"Hello, brother," Reese says with a smile on his face as he pushes past me. My eyes widen in horror as Wren comes into view. She smiles shyly at me as Reese pulls her by the hand behind him. Reese, stops in his tracks when he sees, Penelope. He turns and gives me a confused look. I know what he's thinking.

I shake my head a little, hoping he gets the hint that I did not have sex with her and he does. He winks and turns his attention to Penelope.

Reese sniffs the air, "I smell smut."

"You're just jealous you can't have all this!"

Reese laughs, "Trust me I'm far from jealous!" He pull Wren close.

Penelope eyes Wren up and down. A look of disgust crosses her face.

"Is this your new whore of the week?" She asks ignorantly, never taking her eyes off Wren.

"Excuse me?" Wren takes a step towards Pen.
Reese quickly steps between the two woman putting distance between them.

Wren looks to me. "What was it you said back at Sam's? Oh yeah, why don't you keep your dog on a leash!"

Reese bursts into a fit of laughter. Penelope stares at Wren completely stunned. She didn't expect that and neither did I. After a moment, she storms pasted me muttering, "This isn't over," and slams the door.

I clear my throat, "So...ah, what are the two of you doing here?"

"Wren's children are with their father this weekend and since she's never been to New York, I figured we would take a little trip," he tells me and sits in the chair across from me.

"I wish you would have called," I tell Reese, giving him a pointed look.

I look at Wren who is trying her hardest to look everywhere but at me. "Um, Wren, you don't have to stand, please sit," I gesturing to the couch along the wall.

She glances at the couch and back at me. "No thanks! I'm good," she states with disgust. Fine if she wants to stand, let her stand.

"Here love, you can sit here," Reese offers, patting his knee.

She gives him a warm smile and sits comfortably on his lap. I watch as he wraps his arms around her giving me a smirk.

I'm starting to get the feeling, Reese is rubbing this in my face to piss me off. And it's working!
Wren sits quietly, again she avoids looking in my direction. Her actions alone are starting to get under my skin. I don't like being ignored.

"Where are you guys staying?"

"We haven't decided yet!"

This keeps getting better and better. "Well that settles it then, the two of you are staying with me," I gather up my papers and stand.

Now she doesn't have any other choice but to acknowledge me. Wren's head snaps in my direction. Her eyes are wide. I knew that would get her attention.

"Sounds good to me," Reese agrees and taps, Wren's thigh. Wren stands so Reese can get up.

I had to take a double take at Wren's clothing.
There was just so much going on that I didn't even notice she was wearing a skin tight black, cold shoulder jumpsuit with a mesh insert around her abdomen. Showing off her fit body perfectly.

She is absolutely stunning. I pull my gaze from the natural beauty and walk to the door, opening it for them. Wren, exits the room first and of course she's followed closely by Reese.

I close the door, locking it, and walk down the hall.

"Oh, I brought Wren through the side entrance but, I promised to show her the club before we left, if that's okay?"

"That's fine with me. I have to give a few papers to the bar manager anyway."

The music from the club gets louder the closer we get. Finally we make it to the club entrance.

"Well, here you go," I hold the door open for them.

This club is set up a bit differently than the one Reese runs in Pittsburgh. This one only has one floor, as Reese's has two. Other than that, they are pretty much the same.

Reese, takes Wrens hand and slowly guides her through the dancing crowd towards the bar.

"Oh. My. God!" A female voice yells as we pass.
A woman grabs Wren by the arm stopping her from moving.

What the hell?

"You're Sugar," the woman shouts over the loud music.

Wren smiles sweetly at the woman. "Um, yeah, I am," Wren, looks at the woman's hand still holding onto her arm.

"Oh, sorry," the woman apologizes and removes her hand. "I seen one of your shows in Pittsburgh, and you were amazing."

Wren smiles again. God her smile is beautiful.

"Thank you, I'm glad you liked it," She tells the woman sweetly. Why is she even wasting her time talking to this woman?

"Are you performing here tonight?" She asks Wren with hope.

Wren laughs, "No, we are here visiting my friends brother and I'm just a fill-in dancer.

The woman pouts in disappointment. Reese clears his throat gaining Wren's attention.

"It was nice meeting you. But I really have to get going. I hope to see you in Pittsburgh." Wren yells over her shoulder as Reese pulls her by the hand.

We reach the bar and I hand the bar manager, Ryan, a few papers for him to go over. He does a double take at Wren and his eyes widen.

"Holy shit, you're Sugar!" Does everyone here know who she is?

Reese laughs, "Ryan here is a huge fan of yours."

"I've seen all your videos online," He squeaks out like a little bitch.

Wren laughs and extends her hand to Ryan to shake his hand. "Actually, the name's Wren, and its nice to meet you."

Before letting go, he kisses her hand. I tense at his action and Reese laughs loudly. I snatch her hand from his and give him a look. "Okay, you met her now you can go!"

He spares one last glance at Wren before getting back to work. I really don't like the way he looked at her.

I look to Reese, "We can go now!"

Reese nods his head and glances down, then back to me and raises his eyebrow. I look down at my hand, I completely forgot I was holding hers.

Without looking at Wren. I pull her gently by the hand and lead her back through the crowd and in the direction of the exit. Wren's grip tightens around my hand as she gets many cat calls from men all around us as we pass.

"We need to get her out of here," Reese yells from behind me.

The word has spread that she is here and now everyone is trying to get close to her.

"How do all these people know me?" Wren shouts over the music.

When we exit the club my car is already waiting for us. I quickly open the door and usher Wren into the back seat. Reese quickly sits in the passenger seat and shuts the door. I hop into the driver's seat and speed in the direction of my penthouse.

"Does this always happen to you?" I ask her, looking at her through the mirror.

"No, not at all," she says with wide eyes.

Reese chuckles, "You can thank everyone who posts photos and videos of you on our website."
I cant believe she doesn't know this!

"Why would they act like that? I'm a nobody!"

"Your also very popular with the fight club too," He tells her.

What the hell does she have to do with the fight club? As if, Reese could read my mind. "She's one of the ring girls."

"Oh!"

I pull up to the car garage and enter the PIN number. Within seconds the gate opens allowing us to enter. I park and we all exit the car. I lead them to the elevator and push the button to the top floor.

"I live on the top floor." She nods her head, acknowledging me.

"Where are your bags?"

Wren sighs, "The airport lost them."

I chuckle. I have had that happen multiple times and it sucks.
