Lily had just stepped out of the shower when her phone rang. "Hello." She
said when she answered, wrapped in a towel.
"Hey, what are you doing tonight?" Daria, one of her friends from the club, asked.
"Nothing. Why?"
"Come to Lust with us again tonight."
"Oh, I don't know." She sighed.
"That hot guy you were dancing with all night might be there again tonight."
The thought of seeing Deacon again immediately changed her mind. "Okay, I'll go. But I'm not staying long."
"Good. See you at eight thirty?"
"Yeah."
"Great! See you then." Daria said and hung up before Lily could say another word.
"Yeah, see ya later." Lily mumbled as she hung up the phone. Her thoughts quickly went to Deacon and a smile slowly came across her face. She walked towards her room to get dressed and pick the perfect outfit to wear to the club. Before she made it to her room, the phone rang again. She turned around and walked back over the phone. "Hello." She said, the smile still on her face.
"Hey, baby." A man's voice said.
Her smile quickly faded. "What do you want, Gunner?"
"Is that any way to speak to your fiancé?"
"You're not my fiancé, Gunner. We broke up."
"Okay, you're still mad. How about I take you out to dinner and we can talk."
"No, Gunner. I don't want to go to dinner with you because every time we get in a fight, you convince me to go somewhere with you and you end up saying something to make me feel bad about leaving you. Then when I come back, you do the same shit over and over again."
"Fine, don't go with me. It doesn't matter 'cause you will be mine, forever, even if we have to do things the hard way." He said and hung up.
She put the phone down with a shocked look on her face and got dressed. **************************************************************************** ***********************************************
Deacon had decided that he would go back to Lust to see if Lily would come back. He was sitting on a couch with Quinn and Mercury in a corner when she walked in.
"I don't see why you did just suck her dry last night, Deac." Quinn said.
"Yeah. It's not like you to let them go like that." Mercury agreed.
"Shh." Deacon said. "There she is."
"She's hot, man. It's gonna be a shame to kill her." Quinn said.
"Yeah, yeah." Deacon responded unconsciously as he stood up and walked over toward her.
"Can I get a shot of tequila?" She asked the bartender. She slammed her shot and turned. She jumped when she saw Deacon standing in front of her. "Deacon. Hi."
"Hi, Lily." He said and flashed his seductive smile. "You wanna dance?" He asked and extended his hand.
"Yeah." She took his hand and followed him to the dance floor. After about an hour, she stopped, out of breath. "I need to take a break."
"How about a drink?" He asked.
"Yeah." She said. She led him toward the bar but stopped and turned around when she saw Gunner observing the club from the bar. "On second thought, it's getting kind of late and I have to get up early tomorrow to go to work."
Deacon could smell her fear and looked toward the bar to see what had scared her so bad as she headed to the door.
She had hoped Gunner didn't see her, but he did, and was now stealthily following her. She only lived three blocks away so she had walked to the club. She walked out of the club and headed down the street. Gunner stalked her until he was sure no one standing outside the club could see them then he grabbed her and pulled her into a dark alley.
"Let go of me!" She screamed as she fought to get free.
He slammed her against a wall hard and pinned her against it by her throat. "I told you, you're mine. This would be so much easier for you if you'd just stop fighting me."
She squirmed to try to break free from his grip before finally lifting her foot, kicking him in the groin. He moaned in pain and let go of her throat. She tried to run but he grabbed her by her hair. He slammed her against the wall again and punched her hard, splitting open her cheek below her left eye. She fell to the ground and he quickly pinned her down with her arms by her side so she couldn't hit him.
He punched her again. "I'm gonna teach you never to leave me again!" He growled and punched her again. "You're mine, you bitch!" He said, continuing to punch her. He finally stopped after knocking her unconscious. He grabbed her by the collar of her jacket and pulled her up close to his face, "see what you made me do?" He said calmly. Then he stood up and reached down to pick her up but Deacon grabbed him from behind and threw him down the alley. He hit the wall of a building and landed hard on the ground.
"Quinn, take her to the limo." Deacon said.
Quinn picked her up and carried her to the limo waiting for them outside the club, followed closely by Mercury.
Gunner stood up and threw a punch at Deacon's head. He dodged it and kicked him in the stomach, sending him flying backwards into a pile of trash. He fought to stand back up but by the time he was up, Deacon was already gone.
"Hey, what are you doing tonight?" Daria, one of her friends from the club, asked.
"Nothing. Why?"
"Come to Lust with us again tonight."
