Desmond
“Talk to me Graham”
I was well aware that I should not be keeping tabs on Kennedie, she had her private life away from me, but I was just going to delude myself into believing that this was just me protecting her.
Graham sat down on one of the chairs legs raised to the top of my table “Now tell me Alpha Desmond how long are you going to keep me as your butler?” he asked with a dry facial expression.
“As long as it takes asshole now tell me what I asked”
Graham was my beta and my best friend but for now, he was the butler and everything guy, not the position that he would like to be in, but hey, it is what it is.
“She was a mess when she came out of that guy’s apartment what is his name again?” he asked.
“His name is Andrew Graham… just do your f*****g job”
Sometimes I wondered how Graham was even my beta when he was the single most nonchalant person that I knew in this world. I mean this dude did not care about anything in the world.
But he was strong, and he had a good heart.
He was also the only one who knew how to how to handle me, and so that was a bonus I’ll give you that.
Graham rolled his eyes “anyways, Kennedie attempted to serve him divorce papers but it seems she can’t something that has to do with the Peterson Grand Hotel” he said.
I could feel my teeth grinding “I knew it, from the moment he came to me telling me he had this business idea for transforming the hotel and the surrounding land into some kind of make-shift city” I said.
Graham almost choked “he came to you?” he asked.
I nodded “dead straight”
Now Graham was really interested in the conversation. “Does he know who you are or does he think we don’t know who he is or…” he trailed off.
I shrugged “I don’t know but if there is one thing I know, it is that I am going to keep my enemies real f*****g closer that’s what” I smirked “besides, I’d be killing two birds with one f*****g stone. I would be able to keep a f*****g eye on plain f*****g drew and I would also help the little menace with her revenge”
“I still don’t know why you are helping Kennedie with that though, it isn’t your responsibility” he said.
When I really think about it Graham was right, I only promised her dad that I would help keep her safe and not help her get some revenge like some fiction s**t.
But for some reason, I still wanted to do it and who knows, maybe some kind of benefit could be in it for me.
I was a proud selfish bastard and I never did anything for free.
And so the only reasonable reason I could give was “you will see in time Graham” I said confidently like I knew what the hell I was even doing, I didn’t yet but I would soon enough. I was Desmond Knight after all.
“Well you should-”
Graham was interrupted by a knock on the door “I am coming in Desmond” Kennedie said.
I did not have to tell Graham what to do, he rolled his eyes before he quickly stood up stood beside me.
“Seriously you owe me for this Desmond” he said for like the millionth time.
Kennedie strolled in, unconscious of her surroundings before she just plopped down on the chair with a wiry fierce look on her face.
“Let us talk revenge” she said.
I smiled before turning to Graham “please excuse us” I said
Graham bowed his head “yes master”
Kennedie snorted but rolled her eyes when it met mine.
This f*****g girl.
“So you final made the right decision” I said the moment that Graham walked out of the door “I though that you would never come around”
Her eyes had a burning fire within them “I want them both to suffer until they have nothing left… I want them to hurt so much more than they ever hurt me” she said.
I never knew that Kennedie could have it in her., so much anger, so much raw passion that was just waiting to be unleashed and I was not going to lie, it was kind of hot.
I nodded my head “I can do that for you” I said.
Kennedie nodded “that is good”
She cleared her throat, her eyes had an uncertain look in them like she was nervous… I hated that. I wanted her bold at all times and so sure of herself even if she did have a filthy mouth.
“Whatever it is you can spit it out” I said.
“I f*****g hate that it is you that I am saying this to but I need your help Desmond” she said.
I scoffed “wow, how humble of you” I said sarcastically.
“I need to borrow some money from you, just so that I can buy back my shares to the hotel from my dickhead ex” She said “but I am not going to just freeload form you though, I will pay you back as soon as I can”
“And how do you expect to do that hmm?” I asked “pay me back I mean”
She quickly retreated back into her shell “I only asked for some damn help Desmond not for you to insult me” her tone sounded bitter, frustrated.
“I am not trying to insult you in the slightest” I said, “I was just worried”
She shrugged “I will find a way… I always do” she said.
“I have a way that I can help you out” I said.
Her eyes looked hopeful “please” she said.
“Let me have control of the hotel” I said
“W-what?” she asked like she genuinely could not make sense of what I was saying. I continued “look, I have the funds that you don’t let me have the hotel and when it is good enough I will sign it back over to you” I said.
It made perfect f*****g sense, in my head that is.
Kennedie stood up suddenly “f**k you Desmond!” she spat.
“What did you say?”
She scoffed “you know I thought that you were at least a bit different, but as it turns out you are the f*****g worst” she said.
“I am only trying to help you”
“That hotel is the only thing that my father left to me!” there were angry tears running down her eyes “why do you think that I will just give it to you?”
I shrugged “that is the only way Kennedie” I said.
“You know what just forget it” she said,
“What are you even talking about?”
“Forget it all the revenge, the fact that I ever asked you to help me forget everything” she said.
“You will not be able to do this without me” she said.
“I will be out of your house tomorrow” she said.
“Kennedie-”
“And I hope we never cross paths again asshole” she said and with that she was out of the door, banging it shut behind her.
Well, damn.
