Celebrity Playboy - Episode 35&36
(Love...•••In•••...Trouble)
______________
Kenzie looked up as the door opened, and the fourth brother stepped in.
Killian Alpha.
Priceless aura, deep soulless eyes, f+çking dominating presence.
There are traces of beards on his jaws, but they're cleanly shaved, leaving just the stubbles.
He's as dangerously handsome as Kenzie has been hearing, but he can say it out right here and now that he's more handsome.
Maybe because he and his brothers are older.... They're all 35 right now, and he's 20.
It makes perfect sense since they're 15 years older than him, but the strange thing is ... He's not a lil bit scared right now.
He has chewed away all his fears since he the brothel...he overcame it, and right now, there's nothing to be scared about.
He knows it's a sin to not be scared of them, but commiting a few iniquities wouldn't hurt, would it?
He's not a simpleton either.
Instead of going to his brothers, Killian walked straight to him, and he had to stand up to meet him face-to-face.
Thankfully, they're the same height, so the equation is perfectly balanced.
"Yeah, Kenzie Torrance" he said rigidly, and Killian's brows dipped as their eyes mirrored.
"You're not leaving this place with your boss's goods. We have no intentions of letting go of his bags" he muttered.
"There's no reason for that. He never trespassed across the borders before, and he always payed his dues accordingly" Kenzie replied without fretting.
The other three brothers reclined into their chairs, watching the show with the same glint in their eyes.
They're enjoying this.
"If I say his goods aren't crossing the sea, then it's going no f+çking where, young boy" Killian snickered.
"And I insist, that I leave this place with the goods,, by all means possible" Kenzie replied, and Killian made a show of getting a gun from the table.
He took a step back, aiming straight for Kenzie's face.
"It's a pity your whores won't get to see that handsome face anymore...you should say your last prayer, Kenzie Torrance" he muttered, and Kenzie smirked.
"You won't kill me"
"How sure are you, bastard?" Killian slipped his finger under the trigger.
"You can't, I see it in your eyes" Kenzie replied boldly, and Killian started pressing the trigger, bit by bit.
The lever pulled slowly, and the brothers have this intrigued smile on their faces as the time counted.
Tick, tock...
One sec...
Two....
At the third sec, Killian pulled the trigger, and the bullet flew across Kenzie's right ear, then it rammed into the wall behind him, creating a dent.
Killian lowered his hand, and a manic smile covered his lips when he saw Kenzie still standing there.
"Bravo!" Hardin clapped.
"You're a warrior, boy" Jordan smiled, and Killian walked to him.
He patted his shoulder twice, the smile still intact on his face.
"You proved the news I've been hearing about you right, dude" he said, and Kenzie smiled slightly too, then everyone took their seats.
Zade seems like the neutral one just like he has heard. He'd neither happy nor sad as he got the papers out.
Kenzie signed for the exchange of goods, and Killian made a call to the port immediately for the release of Lord Steel's ship.
"No need to go to hotels, you can have a palace-like room here, and you're invited to our couples dinner. It's happening tonight" Jordan said.
"Couples?" Kenzie raised his brows.
"You get to meet our wives, well except one person here who's probably planning to sign up as a Catholic Father..." Hardin grinned, and Zade shot him a death glare.
"Are the rumours true? He's unmarried?" Kenzie smiled.
"He's single to stupor" Killian replied.
"He sold his heart to the vultures actually" Hardin added.
"Out of my Den, everyone " Zade ordered, and Hardin began laughing.
Kenzie had to join them in the laughter cos they're so hilarious.
Who would have thought the pillars of Italian Mafia who're feared all-over the world are this lively?
They left Zade in the Den, and a maid showed Kenzie to his large room.
It's paradisiacal just like Hardin said earlier.
First thing he did was getting his phone and dialling Hazel's line on FaceTime.
It's like she has been waiting cos she picked almost immediately.
He walked into the balcony when her face came to view.
She's in the annex, in the bathroom, naked!
"You took your phone to the bathroom?" He smiled, watching her curves.
"I didn't want to miss your call" she replied, wrapping a total on her body before grabbing the phone from wherever she hung it at.
"How was it? Did you meet them already?" She asked, entering her room.
"Yeah, and the deal is finalized. I should be back by tomorrow" he replied.
"Should?" She blinked.
"Will" he replied, and she smiled, dressing up without taking the camera off her body.
He couldn't stop staring, and when she began attaching ribbons to her hair, he chuckled.
"You dunno how to do that...they always fall off"
"It's not my fault" she pouted, and he laughed before he could hold it.
"Why ribbons though? Are you going out this late?"
"Not really, Natty invited me to the second mansion but I'm thinking of saying no. We can talk all night, don't you think? I don't want to end this call" she replied, sitting on her bed.
Kenzie was about to reply again when Killian came in behind him, and he had to turn to meet his eyes.
"Coming closer" he said.
"Sure" Kenzie replied, and he joined him.
He smiled when she saw Hazel's face on screen.
"Your girl?" Killian faced him.
"Yeah" Kenzie replied immediately, and Hazel blinked.
"What happened to the rumour about how you break hearts and win trophies?" Killian frowned
"That was before her" Kenzie replied, and Hazel blushed.
"She's cute" Killian nodded.
"I know" Kenzie replied, and Killian's brows tightened when he saw blood coming out of Kenzie's nose.
"You ok?" He asked.
"I'll call you later, sweetheart" he quickly told Hazel, making sure to hide the blood from her before cutting the call.
Killian ordered for tissues, and Kenzie got rid of the blood.
"Is it a terminal disease? Are you dying soon? You'll break the heart of that girl?" He said.
"I'll be fine" Kenzie replied, folding his fists.
"Yunno... keeping things has never been of any benefit...speak up and lessen the weight. I know your mother did bullshit to you" Killian said, and Kenzie doesn't look surprised.
He must have made some research.
"But my late father Malachi did worse to me, and here I am now. I made sure he watched the growth of the four of us before he gave up the ghost by himself " Killian explained, and Kenzie looked at him.
"You're still young, and resourceful, there's still time to run. Did you tell the girl how you feel yet?" Killian asked.
"Haven't thought about it" Kenzie replied.
"Then start thinking about it, I'm telling you this as your newfound brother " Killian said, and Kenzie chuckled.
"Hey there!" A soprano voice filtered into their conversation, and Zinnia entered the balcony.
She didn't change, still the same milk skinned lady and pretty face, but she's heavily pregnant right now with the third child.
"Little flower" Killian quickly went to carry her, and they shared a kiss right in front of Kenzie.
"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Zinnia alpha" Kenzie smiled.
*
NEW YORK, TORRANCE ESTATE*
The game is currently so hot in the second mansion.
Livia is playing snooker with Eminem, and the rest are just cheering them on, the mansion so loud.
"I've been meaning to ask...what school do you guys attend?" Natty asked.
"Baron college" Austin replied.
"Are you bullshit-ing me? Our Baron college?" Eminem dropped his stick.
"Your? You attend Baron in France too? Wow! How come we haven't met in school before?" Austin said.
"It's a small world" Hope said.
"I really wish I can meet this Kenzie guy seriously...he's a legend" Austin said.
"Nothing great, just a d∆ck who breaks hearts for trophies" Livia rolled eyes.
"Not anymore, he got trapped already, and his girl is in this same house" Eminem replied.
"What!" Livia and Austin chorused.
"Let's meet her, where's she?" Livia dropped her stick too, and Hazel immediately came in.
"There are guards by the gate, asking for Livia and Austin" she announced, and Livia groaned.
"I knew dad would find us! Urghh!"
She grabbed her bag, and Austin followed her out of the room.
Eminem quickly ran after them...
"I'll call you, Livia!" He shouted.
"I'm the one at fault for giving you my line" she replied, and he laughed as she went out of sight with Austin, then he rushed back in.
"Hazel has an account already. Quick! Pick your phone and follow my girl on IG...post her handle on your IG too for more follows" Natty told him.
"Handle is Hazel underscore Queens" Hazel said.
Hope followed her already, so Amber, Lee and Eminem did same.
They posted her link on their walls, and her followers started increasing.
Surprisingly, Miguel followed her too, and when she looked up to him, he left the room.
"He followed me" Hazel muttered.
"Miguel is weird, don't forget that" Natty replied, and she laughed.
"So how are you holding up? You don't miss Ken?" Hope asked.
"Madly, but we still spoke some minutes ago" Hazel smiled.
"That d∆ck! He called you but not us?" Eminem said jealously, and they began laughing in mockery.
*
PENNY'S PLACE*
After dinner with her family, Penny retired to her room with a low spirit.
She has been calling and texting Amber after they left the store earlier, but she hasn't been picking up nor replying, and that got her restless.
She can't be giving up, right?
She's the only person she has to rely on in the band, and she's not that close to Katherine, she'd have went to her...
The buzzing of her phone interrupted her thoughts, and immediately she checked the message, she rushed out of the house.
She met Katherine waiting in front of it, and she smiled.
"How did you get my number?"
"That's not important right now. What's important is that tomorrow is Hazel's last day on earth" Katherine said.
"What! Y... you're... killing...her?" Penny stuttered.
"Yes, and we need your cooperation" Katherine came closer, and Penny swallowed.
"What do i have to do?"
*
ITALY*
"Kenzie Torrance? My hubby told me a lot about you even before you arrived" Zinnia replied from Killian's arms.
"Cool" Kenzie smiled.
"You both have so many similarities when he was your age though, but the only difference is that you smile...this jerk here doesn't" Zinnia said, and Kenzie laughed.
"Stop it" Killian replied.
"I'm not lying" she made innocent faces, and Hardin barged in
"Dinner is set, you should come meet the rest of the ladies " he said.
Kenzie immediately followed them out of the room, and on their way to the dinning, he texted Lord Steel about the deal finalization.
They arrived at the victorian-like dinning, and he was surprised to meet two other beautiful women.
He recognized them as Britney and Karen Alpha immediately.
Karen is on Jordan's laps, and Hardin gave Britney a kiss immediately.
The way they love their women is insane, and Kenzie instantly began wishing he brought Hazel along.
"Welcome to the legendary Alpha family!" Britney said dramatically.
"Kenzie Torrance, you're quiet popular" Karen smiled as they all settled for dinner.
"Don't worry, I told the maids to make your meal extra salty, I know about your disorder" Killian told him.
Kenzie was about to reply when the last members came in.
Alyssa and Bruno!
"I can't believe y'all started the dinner without us, cheating! Kill-boy I trusted you" Alyssa said.
"When is she gonna start addressing me what respect?" Killian rolled eyes.
"When you die" Zade replied.
"Shut the f+ck " Killian snickered, and Hardin began laughing with Britney.
"Welcome Kenzie Torrance" Bruno smiled at him, and Kenzie returned it.
"You're spending about one week here right? I need tips on how you earned your trophies" Alyssa said, and Kenzie chuckled, feeling a riot in his head already.
He's only trying his best to smile and engage.
"So how many girls do you want tonight? I can ship in girls for you and organize orgies" Hardin said.
"He has a girl, bastard" Killian rolled eyes.
"What!" They all chorused except Zade.
Their united 'What' made Kenzie's headache worse.
"Argh!!" He grabbed his head, and blood came out of his nose again.
"Captain" Jordan stood, and Kenzie fell from his chair to the ground unconscious.
Everyone stood, and Killian snapped his fingers.
"Five guards, right now!"
Five guards rushed in, and Kenzie was rushed out.
*
NEXT DAY, TORRANCE ESTATE*
Hazel couldn't sleep throughout last night.
She waited for Kenzie's call throughout, but it never came.
She doesn't even know weather to be mad at him or worried.
She called him too, and his line has been off
What exactly is going on?
"His line is still not going through?" Maria came in.
She's aware of her sleeplessness.
"Yeah" Hazel muttered, and Maria sat beside her to stroke her hair
"He's fine... he's Kenzie Torrance anyways" she said, and Hazel smiled, then Penny came in.
"It's been a while Penn" Maria stood.
"I know, right?" Penny smiled, and Maria left the room for them.
"Heard Kenzie is outta the country, you must miss him a lot" Penny said.
"You can't ghost me for days and suddenly come here then expect me to talk to you Penny. Life doesn't work that way" Hazel stood.
"Look I'm sorry...I know I acted salty like a bî+ch and I deserve it, but i didn't want to involve you in my family crisis. My father's farm got confiscated and...
"What! And you didn't tell me?" Hazel interrupted with a gasp.
"I'm sorry" Penny made faces.
"I'll go see him, right now" Hazel got her back and led the way out of the room.
"Doesn't mean I forgave you though" she said.
"I understand " Penny replied, coming out after her.
"Where are you girls off to?" Natty met them at the garage.
"Penny's place, to see her parents" Hazel replied.
"You can take Kenzie's car" Natty replied, ordering a driver to drive them.
*
THIAGO ALEJANDRO'S CASTLE*
"I don't understand... we're grounded just because we visited that estate? I honestly think you're doing too much! Is it a sin to be the daughter of a mafia? Hahaha! Not funny!" Livia said dramatically, jumping down the stairs.
Thiago is in the living room, and Austin is sitting with him.
"Seriously? Just manage it, it's only today anyways" Austin said, and Livia rolled eyes.
"But somehow...the girl who came last yesterday looks like someone I know" Livia narrowed her eyes.
"She's one of the new member of CADENCE, Hazel Queens" Austin replied.
Livia immediately got her phone and went online.
Immediately she saw Hazel's pictures, she gasped.
"Wait! Isn't she the carbon copy of the woman we're looking for?" She said, and Austin quickly joined her.
"Now that I'm looking at her attentively, she's...
Thiago was already with them before he could finish, and he only took a glance at the picture before storming out of the house.
"Dad!" The two ran after him, meeting up at the garage.
He drove himself for the first time, roughly out of the castle.
They drove another car after him with the guards, and they literally fled into Torrance estate.
They met Anna and Hugo at the garage when they arrived, and immediately they came out of the cars, the couple glared at them.
"Thiago? What are you doing in my house?" Hugo scowled.
"Welcome back, boss" Maria rushed out of the annex, and Thiago couldn't believe his eyes.
"I knew it, finally" Livia smiled.
"You're a genius!" Austin said.
Maria was about to take Anna's bag from her when her eyes met with Thiago, and she has a rerun of that night in her head immediately.
She staggered back, and Thiago rushed to catch her.
"So romantic!" Austin gushed.
Hugo and Anna exchanged glances.
"I found you" Thiago said.
*
A MART*
"Are you sure you have enough money to shop? I can give you some" Hazel said, and Penny smiled.
"I have enough, I'm getting only a box of sugar " Penny replied.
She actually suggested they branched at the Mart on their way to her house, and here they are.
"Can you help me pick it? Need to use the restroom" Penny suddenly said on their way to the shelves.
"Sure" Hazel smiled, and Penny left.
Hazel checked her phone for any text from Kenzie, but she found none, and she sighed sadly before returning the phone.
She picked the sugar box.
*
Penny met Cole and Katherine waiting when she entered the restroom, and she heaved.
"Are the dynamites set? She's inside already" she said.
"Yeah, all good. We need to get outta here in two minutes" Cole replied.
Katherine nodded.
At once, they all left the restroom, and together with the other staffs of the Mart, they escaped through the backdoor.
Cole and Katherine actually settled the Mart owners already...they payed triple for the building and the goods inside.
*
Hazel went back to the payment column to pay for the sugar, but surprisingly, there's no single attendant in sight anymore.
The Mart is so dry, and she looked around in awe.
"What's going on?" She muttered.
"And why is Penny taking so long?"
She was about to go to the restroom in search of her when the Mart door bursted open, and she was shocked to the bones to see Lord Stee.
He came in with Natty, Miguel and Eminem, then several other guards from the empire.
"Out!" Steel yelled, and Natty pulled her hand.
"Where... What... are we... Natty what's going...
She was choking on her words as Natty ran out of the Mart with her and the others.
Lord Steel was the last to come out, and immediately he did, the Mart blew up right in front of them, and Hazel fell on her butt in shock, her heart falling at her feet.
"Arghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!" She screamed out in fright.
Natty had to kneel in front of her and hug her face to her chest protectively.
Lord Steel sighed, watching the burning Mart with a slight smile.
He remembered his promise to Kenzie before he travelled to Italy...
FLASHBACK, TWO DAYS AGO*
"I won't move an inch from New York if you don't promise protection over her" Kenzie said, sitting in front of him.
"Natty and the guys are enough to protect her" Steel replied.
"Nope. Her greatest enemy right now is your daughter and her boyfriend. I want you to protect her, YOU" Kenzie insisted.
"Granted, captain" Steel replied.
BACK TO THE PRESENT*
"She escaped!" Katherine announced at the back of the burning Mart.
"What do you mean?" She was in before I came to meet you guys!" Penny replied.
Cole rushed forward and took a peak at the front of the mart.
He gritted his teeth when he saw Hazel in Natty's arms.
"Shit! Let's get outta here" he ran back, and Penny began shaking as they got in the car as fast as possible.
Cole drove roughly down the road, but they couldn't move further when they were crossed by a limo.
"Crash into it!" Katherine shouted desperately.
Before Cole could do that, several other cars surrounded their car, and Penny began crying.
"What's going on!!! What's happening!!!"
Cole's hand fell from the wheel when Thiago Alejandro came out of the obstructing limousine, followed by Livia and Austin.
TBC.
