015 He Is Bad News
Scarlett’s POV
Working on my script for the whole day, I was drowning in an unfamiliar sense of satisfaction. I have put ” family” as the core of my life for so long, that I forgot the fun of living for myself.
When I finally put it down, I almost missed my date with Aurora. Hurrying out of her place, I got to Nightingale 10 minute
to 8. I prefer being early.
I wish I didn’t.
Nightingale is the biggest nightclub in town. Best place for entertainment for any and everyone, so long as you can afford a drink. We used to come here all the time in college, enjoying its “safe hour” for a little alcohol and a lot of fun.
8 pm to midnight, four hours of light, fun music with drinks and chats and snacks. Safe hour. Because after midnight, the heart–pumping DJ would get up there and boil this place into a crazy porridge. Drugs, sex…You name it.
But tonight, the safe hour is not safe, for me.
I ordered a non–alcohol at the bar. I regret coming in the moment the bartender shoots me that weird glance. I should have waited for Aurora, outside. It might be “safe hour“, but it’s still a nightclub.
And trouble found me even before I could get my drink.
“Miss Fuller?” With too sweet a smile, a young man – a boy – scooches up to me almost pasting his body
– to my legs, “Boss wants you. Please.”
I frown at him squeezing distance out between us. He has no sense of a proper manner and I have to
leave the stool to dodge him.
“Who is your boss?” I grip my phone tight, not sure if 1 should call for help. This is not the sa women, not to mention a pregnant one.
He grins at me, then turns his head as a hint. I follow his sight to look.
Gabriel fucking Fuller.

I really shouldn’t have come tonight. But then again, if he wants trouble with me, I wouldn’t be safe even if not at a nightclub.
Gabriel is Jack’s only son, and Ava’s only big brother. And I’m pretty sure to him, Ava is his only sister, too.
He is her real minion.
didn’t do them, cause he was my brother who lived under the same roof with me, he would spread rumors about how I cheated my way through anything I did better than Ava.
