3:55 p.m.

Eliot, Kelly, and J.C. sat in the back of the house discussing about the mysterious box from this morning. Jake was with the ladies, trying to calm them down.

"Are you sure you didn't have any problems in Miami?" Eliot asked as he watched Kelly pace back and forth.

"Any problems we had I dealt with them. Do you think I would-"

"I don't care what you think cause I wasn't talking to you.", Eliot said, cutting J.C. off.

"We had no problems in Miami. Nothing serious…I mean…most of the people we dealt with were Miami's locals. This had to be someone from California.", said Kelly

There was silence among the men until J.C. had an idea, "What about Cassio?" Eliot head turned his head at the name as J.C. continued, "Remember about two months ago he came at you about something your Pops gave you before he died? He did say he was going to get it from you one way or another.

"The first way must have been me and Bonnie's the other.", Eliot thought.

Kelly thought about it and said, "Damn J.C. you're right. You know I forgot about that foreign bastard.", Kelly lit a cigarette and took a long drag., "Well if the fucker wants to play, then I'm ready. I'm gonna go back to Miami with Jake and get everything I need to take this fucker down. J.C., I want you to stay here with Kane and the girls. If he tries anything here, he has to deal with my best guys first. I'm still coming back in a few days. You two call me if anything happens. Got it?"

Eliot and J.C. nodded their heads and Kelly went back in the house to get Jake for their trip back to Florida. Eliot remained in his seat, thinking. Everything was started to cloud each other. If Kelly went to war with Cassio, he could find out about Eliot. It wasn't that he thought he couldn't handle himself against Kelly's guys. He's already planned out how to handle each and every one the goons. But running would mean he couldn't finish the job for Cassio. And not finishing a job for Cassio isn't the smartest thing to do.

"So Kane…", J.C. started, interrupting Eliot's thoughts, "Before I get comfortable, which rooms did you and Bonnie share? Don't wanna ruin any routines around here.", he finished with a smirk.

Eliot looked at J.C. for a moment before walking towards the door. He stopped in front of the door, "We have someone trying to kill Bonnie and all your worried about is where my dick has been for the past month? Ya know even for an asshole like you, I'm surprised." Eliot said before walking back to the house. J.C.'s words reminded him of his lack of trust he had for him back in California.

7:36 p.m.

J.C. had just got of the phone with the boss. Apparently the deal didn't go as smooth as it was suppose to and he had to leave Miami for a while. He told him to stay put until further notice. Coming from the study upstairs, he saw Taylor sitting in the living room, doing a puzzle. He hadn't got a chance to talk to her because someone was always in the way. But with Kane and Francine gone and Bonnie asleep upstairs, he decided to introduce himself.

"Well Ms. Taylor I don't think we've had the chance to talk. I'm J.C., Kelly's top man."

"You say that as if that's suppose to mean something.", Taylor replied, not looking from her puzzle.

"It does mean something. It means that I'm best at what I do

"Actually means that you're the best at being his bitch." Taylor said with a matter of fact tone.

"And just what the fuck does that mean?" J.C. was starting to get angry

Taylor puts her puzzle down and looks at him, "I think you know exactly what the fuck I mean. All you do is shoot at the first head that Kelly points out. You sit back and watch as he destroys lives with that white shit that he stuffs up his nose and probably yours too. And then you two fuckers have the audacity to believe that your on top of the world and suppose to be on top of every girl in it. So to sum it all up for you, because I got a feeling that all that shit has made you a little slow, you're a worthless piece of shit whose head is so far up Kelly's ass that if he shits, it's coming out of your ass first."

J.C. was beaming by the time Taylor got finish, who seemed unbothered by his obvious change in attitude. He got up a walked away from the couch and Taylor started on her puzzle again. Their conversation had irritated her so she decided to go to her room. She left her puzzles on the table and walked to the stairs. Before she could start walking up, she was pulled away and thrown against a wall. Her and J.C. were a breath apart.

"You know…I usual will beat the fuck out of anyone who talks to me like that", he started, "But for you…I'll let you make it up to me. Very slowly."

Before Taylor could react, he forced his lips on hers. She squirmed and tried to wiggle her way out but he had her closed in. When she opened her mouth to scream, J.C. slid his tongue in. Feeling his tongue moving around in her mouth, she slammed her teeth down and landed right on his tongue. J.C. stopped to scream as he back away. Taylor got off the wall and walked up to him to kick him right in his manhood. Now he was really crying out. He was so focused on his pain that he tripped over the end table and fell on the wood floor.

"What the hell is going on here?" Bonnie asked as she came down the stairs.

"Um….nothing…he fell." Taylor said. She didn't want to tell Bonnie what really happened. Especially since she didn't have any proof.

"Well maybe he shouldn't be walking in the dark.", Bonnie flicked on the light, "J.C. are you okay?"

"I'M FINE. JUST TRIPPED…", he replied as he stormed off, giving Taylor a dirty look as he did.

"What's his problem?" asked a confused Bonnie

"I have no fucking idea." Taylor responded as she and Bonnie went upstairs.

4 days later, Per Se Restaurant 8:27 p.m., 15 days left

"Well I am glad to have all of our close family here with us. And Kane, J.C., and Jake too.", the table laughed, "It makes this such a happy event. So…I'm proud to say that after three years of dating, me and the gorgeous Bonnie Mirboni are getting married!"

The table began clapping and smiling. Eliot, Francine, and Taylor were all at the table, smiling and clapping. But all three were slightly disappointed for different reasons of their own.

"Mom, I know you're going to love the ring. Show it to her, Bonnie."

Bonnie nodded, went into her clutch, and put on her engagement ring. Everyone took notice of it immediately, especially Eliot. There it was: The Blue Moon Diamond. He was both surprised and relieved: relieved that Kelly actually had the ring and surprised at what he's doing with the ring.

"I can see Kane likes it." Eliot heard Kelly say, which stopped him from staring, "What about you mom?"

Everyone looked at the small older woman who was crying tears of joy.

"It's still as beautiful as I remember. Your father would be proud of what your doing with it." his mother said between the tears.

"Well family, let's celebrate! After this were going to the hotel so that you guys can settle in." Kelly said as he sat down.

"Why are we going to a hotel?" asked Taylor

"Well sis, I'm checking you, Miss Francine, Jake, and Kane into a hotel so me and Bonnie can have the place to ourselves." Kelly replied.

"Don't call me sis. You're not in the damn family yet." Taylor responded while taking a drink of champagne.

"And why am I staying in the hotel? Who's going to be there with you two if something happens?" Eliot asked

"Did you forget J.C. was here? We'll be fine." said Kelly.

Eliot didn't ask no more question because Kelly ordered for food to be sent to their table. Eliot listened as Bonnie, Francine, and Kelly's mother talked about the plans for the wedding.

"Oh I think you should have the wedding this fall, right here in New York.", Kelly's mother suggested

"That would be perfect! And maybe outside so the leaves could like fall down in our background!" Bonnie said excitedly.

"Yeah the falling leaves would be perfect with the flying bullets." Taylor added casually.

"And why on earth would there be flying bullets?" asked Kelly's mother

"Cause your son has so many enemies, they're gonna try and wack him the first chance they can get." Taylor said

The whole table stopped eating and looked at Taylor who continued eating her food

"And why we're on the subject, I suggest the dress be made with bullet proof material. Oh! And Bonnie, you may wanna get insurance on your little fiancé over there. Ya know, just in cause someone has a lucky shot." Taylor said. She looked at everyone, shrugged her shoulders, and continued eating.

"The food here is delicious, Kelly", she finished

By now, everyone's expression was different: Kelly's face was glowing with anger and annoyance, Bonnie looked both surprised and calm, Kelly's mom was shocked, Francine smiled nervously while silently apologizing, but Eliot and Jake's heads were down. Mainly because they were trying to keep in their laughs.

"And the crazy thing about it is, this is just the start of the night.", Jake whispered to Eliot.

Mandarin Oriental Hotel 10:16 p.m.

"Congratulations, Ms. Mirboni." Eliot said from behind Bonnie

She turned around and smile, "Why thank you, Mr. Kane."

"Are ready to become a misses?"

"I said yes, didn't I?"

"That doesn't mean that your ready. You could of just been caught up in the minute"

"Well if you must know, Mr. Smartass, I've been planning this since I was nine years old. And I plan on sticking to that dream."

"Well this is far from a dream, isn't it."

"If you say so. Speaking of dreams, you get to sleep tonight without me being in the next room. How will you ever live?"

Eliot laughed, "I'm not sure but I'll make it." Bonnie laughed

"Aw, you two are cute. Are you sure you said I do to the right guy?", Taylor asked as she observed the two of them

"Haven't you said enough tonight?", said Bonnie

"Hey don't get mad at her, she's the only reason I enjoyed myself tonight." Eliot said, remembering Taylor's bold statements at the restaurant.

"As much as I enjoyed being your source of entertainment, I'm going to bed. Too much to drink in such little time." Taylor gave Bonnie a hug, "Even though I hate the bastard and secretly wish he would catch a bullet right between the eyes, if he make you happy then it makes me happy. Congrats big sis."

"Thanks, Taylor. That means a lot coming from you." Bonnie said while getting teary eyed.

And with a pat on Eliot's back, she left the lounge and went to her hotel room.

Taylor's Hotel Room

Taylor got off the elevator and walked to her door to swipe her room door open. She walked in, not bothering to turn on the light, and close the door. She was beginning to take off her dress when she heard the front door finally close.

"It's just now closing? That's weird. " She thought to herself.

She took off her dress and tossed it on bed. Just when she about to undo her bra, she felt someone grab her hair and put her arms behind her.

"Need help with that? Let me give you some assistance." the mystery man threw her on her bed and yanked off her bra, exposing her breast.

He came at Taylor quickly as he tried to yank off her underwear with his hands. Taylor was scarred but refused to go down without a fight. When he continued to pull of her underwear, she punched him everything she had. Every punch landed perfectly against his smooth head. It slowed the guy down but not stopping him completely. Her final blow came the hardest when she hit him with her hand with a golden ring on it. The guy stumbled back, giving Taylor her first opportunity to run. She grabbed a robe and ran to the door. The guy caught her and threw her hard to the floor. He tried to come towards her but she kicked him right in the face. He went stumbling hard against the wall, screaming in agony.

"You broke my nose you fucking bitch! Now you're really going to pay.", the guy said as he grabbed her by her neck.

Taylor finally recognized the voice. She couldn't believe she didn't see this coming after their first encounter.

When he picked her up, he forced their lips together as he kissed her roughly. Taylor began scratching his face and she assumed it worked because he finally stopped the kiss. He threw her to the wall where she hit her head hard, making her slightly dazed.

"Oh you little…it's okay though. Cause believe it or not, this is turning me on."

He grabbed her by her neck again and forced her to her knees. He unzipped his pants and revealed a lot more to Taylor than she wanted to see. Forcing her mouth open, he pounded himself into her mouth. Taylor almost threw up right then and there but she refused to let him win. She closed her eyes and did the only thing she thought to do. She slammed her teeth down on his manhood and listened as he screamed in excruciating pain. Feeling him remove himself, Taylor took off running out the door and into the hallway. She banged on every door but no one answered. She ran to the elevator and repeatedly pressed the down button.

"TAYLOR! I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!"

She heard that and started panicking. She continued to press the down button, praying that the door would open before he recovered. Thankfully, the door opened and she hopped in and pressed the lobby button. The doors closed just in time as she saw him trying to stop the doors from closing. Going down, she could hear him banging on the doors as she silently prayed she would get to the lobby before he could.
