The bass from the music is all-consuming.
It feels like the beat is coming from inside my chest.
I never quite got used to the volume in clubs .
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*make the way through the throng of grinding couples*
Drunk girls shaking their asses,
Obnoxious douchebags wearing too much cologne with a mountain of gel in their hair.
One even has his button-up parted ,
So he can show off the gold chain dangling on his hairy,
Scarface is a role model very few manage to do justice to when they imtate him.
They can stick their faces in a pile of coke ,
But don't exhibit the same fitness while doing so.
My hood is pulled over my head,
As I make my way up the metal stairs.
The same metal steps Addie climbed up not too long ago ,
With another man's hand wrapped around hers.
I enjoyed sawing off that hand ,
Would definitely do it again.
When I reach the landing,
On the half moon couch is Max with his legs spread,
while his head is kicked back with his eyes closed.
Her thong pulled to the side ,
Baring her p**sy eating up Max's c**k for all to see.
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*arch a brow*
Umimpressed with how low she has to bounce.
Addie would never have that issue.
A pair of twins sit on either edge,
Receiving their own treatment from a girl.
I step back in the shadows,
Screwing on the silencer piece.
The bass is milder up here ,
But a bullet zipping by your ear will draw anyone's attention.
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*take aim & shoot*
The bullet an inch away from Max's head.
Pushing the poor girl off him ,
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*say calmly*
" Hey ,"
while the twins move into action,
Reaching for their own guns ,
While Max quickly yanks up his slacks to cover his how flacid d**k .
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I'd appreciate it if you tuck the guns back in your pockets along with your d**ks ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" None of you are my type."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I only have one,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" & she's got pretty light brown eyes & a penchant for dangerous men ."
When one of the twins doesn't listen,
Continuing to pull out the gun ,
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*fire off the shot next to his head too*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*turn eyes to the girls*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I want you beautiful ladies to see yourselves out ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" & never speak of this again , yeah ?"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I have the memory of an elephant, especially with faces ."
These women will never see the wrong end of my gun ,
But it sure as hell would make my life a lot harder,
Run out of the room like there's a Rottweiler nipping at their bare a**es.
Max ( Arch's friend )
" Who the f**k are you ?"
Max ( Arch's friend )
*spits*
" Where the f**k is security ?"
Max ( Arch's friend )
*a hand resting on the gun in the back of the pants*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*laugh*
" Security from this club ?"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" You know,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" For someone who has some pretty seedy dealings ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" You're a co**y son of a b**ch for not having your own damn guards."
Max ( Arch's friend )
*sniffs with indignation*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*smile wider*
he's still struggling with loyalty,
That pesky power vacuum now that the Talaverras are wiped out.

Zade Meadows ( ML )
" Couldn't get any loyal guards ? "
Max ( Arch's friend )
*snaps*
" Mind your f**king business ,"
Max ( Arch's friend )
" Who are you,"
Max ( Arch's friend )
" & what do you want ?"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*trot over to where he's sitting*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*& take a seat next to him*
I just sat on a beach chair on a private island with a pina colada .
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*then press the cold metal of the silencer to his temple*
I'm riding on the fact that,
At least these two bozos will show him a shred of loyalty.
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" Does it freak you out when someone pops up out of nowhere ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" & threatens your life ?"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I'll admit , I was a bit more direct ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" but the intention is the same ."
The twins' eyes shift to each other.
Max ( Arch's friend )
" What the f**k are you talking about ,man ?"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*say , nodding head towards the table*
" I'll tell you why I'm here ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" When the three of you set those purdy little guns you got riding up your a**holes on the table there."
The twins look to the Max for direction,
When he nods they listen.
That have a shred of loyalty.
Let's see how long that lasts,
When someone who is clearly in over their head is running the show .
A bead of sweat drips down Max's forehead,
As he follows my directions,
Nearly throwing the weapon on the table from his anger.
The other two follow suit,
One twin picking his up from the ground,
The other sliding his out from the back of his pants ,
Before setting them on the table with Max's.
Indicating this isn't their first rodeo ,
Where a gun is in their face .
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" Adeline Reilly & Daya Pierson ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" Those names ring any bells in those empty head of yours ?"
Max ( Arch's friend )
*eyes round at the edges slightly*
Enough to reveal recognition.
Max ( Arch's friend )
" Never hear----"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*cut in*
" Here's the thing about liars ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I really don't f**king like them ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" They kinda make me twitchy actually."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" Do you want me getting twitchy when my finger is on a trigger ?"
Max ( Arch's friend )
*lips tighten into a hard line*
Max ( Arch's friend )
" Your girl was involved in best frie---"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*cut in again*
" & here's the thing about assumptions ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*grinning when Max snarls with irritation*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" They're baseless,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" & most of the time ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" you're really f**king wrong."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" Addie doesn't anything to do with Archie's death."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" But I do ."
Max ( Arch's friend )
*head jerks towards him*
Max ( Arch's friend )
*but is deterred by the gun still firmly pressed against Max's temple*
Max ( Arch's friend )
*grits teeth*
Max ( Arch's friend )
*chest heaving with fury*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*smile as his body trembles*
Max ( Arch's friend )
*hisses*
" What , is Addie an ex or something ?"
Max ( Arch's friend )
" You get jealous she wanted Arch instead ?"
Those two really were besties.
They sound exactly alike when laid on their deathbed.
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*shrug , unbothered*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I did get jealous ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" But she's certainly no ex ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" Your best friend was a sh*t person."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" You sorry pieces of s**t may get off on slapping around women ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" but can't say I find enjoyment out of that ."
Max ( Arch's friend )
" I'll f**king kil---"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*interrupt for the third time*
" You're not going to do s*it ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" You're a tadpole in an ocean of sharks ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" & you have no f**king idea who I am ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" but you're about to learn."
When Max's eyes meet mine ,
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*flash the teeth*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*pull out the phone*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*click the play button on the awaiting video*
Max's father sits in a chair with a gag in his mouth.
Sweat & tears rum down his face ,
As he looks at the camera with all the fear humankind has ever known.
The two of them are as close as a father,
Sharing the same interests in drugs,
Tossing around women for the hell of it .
His father rambles behind the gag ,
I have no plans to kill the man.
while he's a shitty human,
He wouldn't be any good to me dead .
Not when he's going to be the leverage hanging over Max's head.
I came awfully close to walking in here ,
But then I'd have to kill all their families too ,
My girl doesn't like it when I do that.
Now that Addie's on their radar ,
The more of them I kill ,
The more enemies I make not only for myself,
The dickhead who has my gun pressed to his head ,
Because I killed his best friend.
I don't have the goddamn time to deal ,
When I have Great White's floating around,
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" He's not dead , so settle down."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" No need to yell ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" My ears are sensitive."

Colourful expletives spill from his mouth ,
Tap the silencer on the underside of his chin hard enough to make him bite his tongue .
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" As long as you leave Addie & Daya alone for good ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" Daddy dearest will continue to live a long , healthy life."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I don't want to see goddamn hair out of place on either of their heads , you feel me ?"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I know everything about you, Max ,"
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" & your two helpers over there too ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" I know where you eat , sleep & s**t ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" & I will watch you until some other sorry a**hole puts a bullet in your brain ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" You pickin' up what I'm putting down ?"
His blue eyes narrow into slits ,
It's the equivalent to throwing a bunny at me ,
But whatever makes the a**h*le feel like Elmer Fudd .
I stop the video of Max's sniveling father & stand ,
Keeping my gun trained to him .
Specifically on his d**k .
Most men would rather die than live without a dick.
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" We have a deal , Elmer ?"
His brows plunge at the name ,
but he doesn't question it .
Having a gun pointed at your family jewels changes your priorities sometimes.
Max ( Arch's friend )
" Yes."
Max ( Arch's friend )
" As long as you let him go ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*flash a wide smile*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
" He's already on his way home ."
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*turn to leave*
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*walking back over to the staircase before his voice stops me once more*
Max ( Arch's friend )
" Hey !"
Max ( Arch's friend )
" You never said who you were ,"
Max calls from behind me ,
His voice is still packed full of unbridled anger .
Turning to look over my shoulder ,
A feral grin curls my lips ,
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*say with wink*
" You can call me Z ."
Laughing from the look on their paling faces.

Random girl
" Mr. Forethright, welcome to Pearl ,"
Random girl
*ushering him into the dimly lit foyer*
She's dressed in a plain black blazer,
Her hair pulled back into a tight bun .
A serene smile is on her face ,
But her bright blue eyes are missing their sparkle.
The baby blue colour is lifeless,
it's my first clue that ,
She's seen too much in this place.
I enter into what looks like a foyer with gold tiled flooring,
Gold framed pictures of the founding members of the gentlemen's club line the walls.
A bunch of f**king r**ists line the walls.
Probably still riding the high from r**ing a little girl or boy.
They all look the f**ing same to me .
Zade Meadows ( ML )
*walk down the hallway*
the creepy men staring at me from either side the whole way down,
While music with a heavy bass emanates from somewhere ahead of me.
I'm keeping the earpiece tucked safely away in my jacket,
It took five minutes to get in this godforsaken place,
Because Detective Fingers from security wanted to thoroughly investigate my a**crack .
I had to spend several minutes lecturing him ,
If his fingers brushed up against my a**hole one more time.
After walking down Ra*idt Alley ,
I Walk into a massive room,
Filled with couches & poker tables .
Men lounge on the couches with women draped over their laps ,
Shaking their a**es or t**s in their faces .
At the back of the stage,
A woman is currently humping a pole,
While men are throwing dollar bills at her.
A full bar is off to the left of that ,
Where several men in business suits sit,
Drinking glasses of alcohol.
Probably fifty-thousand-dollar .
Scotch that tastes like a** .
They probably enjoy that taste,
Since they think their own farts smell like flowers.
Women in scantily clad clothes roam the room ,
Pretending to laugh at their lame jokes &--- what the f**k ?
A woman stands at a poker bar holding out her bare arm ,
while a**h*le stubs out his very lut cigar on her skin.
My face drops when I see that ,
A**h*le is Mark Seinburg.
Smoke sizzles from her flesh ,
but she doesn't move an inch .
In fact, she doesn't even flinch.
Anger punches through my chest.
I force myself to stay calm ,
As I walk over to the table,
Acting more interested in the game ,
I notice she has a blank look on her face ,
Much like the hostess that greeted me .
The smell of burnt flesh fills the area.
One di*khead even waves his hand in front of his nose dramatically,
As if it's her fault it smells.
A gazed look in her eyes.
The entirety of her arm is covered in burn scars .
All in different stages of healing,
Plenty of fresh burns from tonight.
As if she didn't just have a cigar stubbed out on her flesh.
After looking around at the women,
Not only does it keep them complaint ,
But they probably won't remember the majority of the s**t ,
Refusing to crack from the anger swirling in the depths of my chest.
Keeping eyes on the table,
