Mason

Part 13: Clubbing

"Because you're beautiful, smart, funny, witty, and even stubborn." I sigh and look at my food

"But you would say the same for Grace." I play with my food

"Stop thinking about Grace, Emma. I care for you." He strains "we can make it work." He said

"How?" I ask "when somewhere out there I know my Dad is looking over me and telling me not to fall for a gangster." I say

"But he knows that if you love someone you should be with them."

"But I don't love you, and you don't love me. You only care." I take a bite and so does he

"I know we can make it work." Mason says, I sigh

"Okay." I say "we can try." I say.

After we finished eating we went back to the car going back to the cabin.

"Get dressed in this." Mason throws me black tights and a cropped spaghetti strap shirt. I put it on and put my boots on too. "First we're going to meet up with someone. Lance has to come."

"Is Trisha going to come?" I ask putting on matte lipstick, dark red,

"No, she doesn't want to be apart of it." He said

"Am I going to be in danger?" I ask

"No." He said "come on, we have to get Lance." He grabs my hand and we go down the stairs and back into the car. Lance gets in the back seat and we go to a place.

We stop at a mansion and we go inside. Mason grabs my hand, it feels more of a safety than a couple hold, we walk upstairs and into an office

"Mason!" The guy sitting at the desk says, he looks at me and grins "you got yourself a beauty." The guy says getting near me, Mason gets in front of me so the guy couldn't touch me

"Yeah." He said "we're here for business." Mason says. Mason lets me sit down and he stands next to me.

"Emma." Someone says then whistles, I block out Mason and everyone in the room. I look around to see him at the door, Mason grabs my hand bringing me back to reality.

"Is she okay?" The guy asks

"I'm fine." I say and they keep doing business.

"Okay, Emma, listen closely." Mason says in the car "when we get to the club, you will follow me, Lance will be with some other person and you won't leave my side unless I tell you so." He finishes, I nod my head yes.

Mason intertwined our hands and we go inside the club. It's filled with the smell of sweaty bodies and alcohol. Mason pushes past the people and go to a little corner

"Mason, why don't you sit down and your lovely guest." A deep voice says, we sit down in front of a real buff man with scars on his face.

"Rodney this is Emma, Emma this is Rodney." Mason says

"Well, nice to meet you Emma." Rodney says and I nod, Mason grabs my hand from under the table

"Rodney, where's my money?" Mason immediately asks

"There was a mix up with the drugs, they got another person to give them it." Rodney says

"And where's my money?" Mason asks again, his hand holds mine tighter

"I'll get all two-hundred thousand." Rodney says "also, you might not want to squeeze so hard on her hand, she's so skinny and fragile I could even break her." Rodney says. Mason let's go and whispers in my ear
