Chapter 137: Forming a Cult
Amahle gazed upon the news, which kept talking about the car chase that one of her targets was involved in, while sipping on a white claw. At the moment, she was relaxing in a cheap motel room. The young African beauty had initially thought that she made good progress with Alex, but now…
Now she was absolutely furious as she pulled out her phone and dialed the number of her contact. When she heard Richard’s voice on the other end of the line, she was quick to admonish him for his foolishness.
“This wasn’t part of the deal, Richard…”
Richard had a smug tone in his voice as he explained his careless actions that had brought national attention to their little contract. Though he wasn’t pleased with the results of the hitmen who had so brazenly made an attempt on Alex’s life, he was convinced that he had ultimately done the right thing to ensure the death of his ex-wife and her asshole of a son.
“It was never specified in our contract that it was exclusive to you. Besides, it’s not that I don’t trust in your abilities. I just simply believed that opening the job up to the public would guarantee results. You shouldn’t be so angry, after all, you already got paid. Why do you care so much? ”
Amahle’s voice turned hostile as she spoke with emotion for the first time since Richard had met her.
“Yeah, I got paid to do a fucking job! And because of your recklessness, that fucking job has just become a lot more difficult! I’m not even going to mention the fact that the feds are now watching Alex, and everyone close to him, while trying to find out who is responsible for this attack.
What I’m concerned about is the fact that my targets are now dug inside that fucking penthouse like a couple of ticks. I couldn’t get past their new security measures, no matter how hard I tried. Even if I disguised myself as a maid, and tried to infiltrate the penthouse like that, they would be able to figure out that I’m not on the payroll of the casino before I even got close to the targets!
Thanks to you, there is no way I’m going to be able to complete this job in the timeframe I gave you! I’m going to have to coerce somebody they know to infiltrate their penthouse and take surveillance photos for me.You’re just extremely lucky that there is one person Alex knows who is pissed off at him enough that he might do this for me. Though whether or not Alex will actually allow him in his home is entirely up to chance!
So… After I find a way to finish the job, I want you to lose my number, because I am never working for you again. And make no mistake, I will be informing my peers that working for you has been a complete and total disaster! Good bye Richard, I will contact you when the job is done….”
After saying this, Amahle hung up where she cursed beneath her breath.
“Fucking idiot!”
After saying this she looked over at the list of people that Alex and Diana might let into their home, who also had a grudge against one or both of them, that she might be able to convince them to perform some basic reconnaissance on her behalf. Naturally, the only figure who fit these criteria was none other than Chad, who Amahle now planned to approach the next day after his football practice ended.
—
Neither Emily nor Alex went to school after being discharged from the hospital. Instead, they returned to their homes and stayed there. But Emily had grown increasingly paranoid while alone in her home, and had routinely been texting Alex.
The simple idea of him responding to her texts made her feel safe. To the point that Alex had just invited the girl over to the penthouse to stay with him and his family for the duration of this crisis they now found themselves in. He did this without even asking his mother. Which was something that would only serve to make her angry.
After Diana had taken over the Egyptian themed casino and resort. She had chosen the top floor of one of the casino’s twin towers for her own personal residence. Which she converted into a super penthouse. The luxurious duplex had multiple rooms, all of which had king-sized beds, and its own pool. It also had a kitchen, a full bar, and a variety of other amenities.
To put it simply, even if Alex had to be locked up inside such a place with six beauties by his side. It was probably the best place for him to do so. Because of this, the penthouse could easily accommodate another few guests.
And thus, Emily hurried over, where she spent most of the day with Alex, Diana, Shannon, Kristina, Madison, and Jade. Who due to her interactions with Alex, had been invited into the palace until this nasty business blew over in fears that she might end up a potential target of the assassins.
The atmosphere was awkward, as until now, Emily and Shannon were not on good terms, and Jade was extremely possessive of Alex, despite what little time they had actually spent together. So much so that she would absolutely not leave the man’s side. And gave Emily a menacing glare every time she tried to get close to Alex. This caused Shannon to smile and tease Jade in an attempt to get close to the girl.
“Oh, my? Isn’t this cute? Little Jade is so possessive of my man… As adorable as this is, I hope you won’t be offended when my nephew and I share the same bed tonight.”
Everybody except Jade was aware that Alex had multiple women by his side and that he was romantically and sexually involved with several of his family members. And though Emily gave Alex a dirty look when Shannon said this, Jade was the one who actually lashed out at the milf.
“What are you saying? Why would Alex sleep with an old hag like you? You lie!”
Shannon wore a sadistic smirk as she walked up to Jade and got in her face, while flaunting her exceptional assets before informing the girl that she was indeed in a sexual relationship with her nephew.
“I have already given my heart, body, and soul to Alex. I am his until the day I day. Isn’t that right, dear?”
Alex was not actually paying attention to the conversation. At the moment, he was just drinking beer and watching TV. Despite all the amenities within the penthouse which he could be enjoying himself with. Or the multiple beauties whose bodies he could use. Sometimes a man just needed some peace and quiet.
Not that such a thing was remotely possible when you were surrounded by women. Still, he at least attempted to do so. And while he was zoning out, and watching an ongoing fight in one of the world’s B tier promotions, Alex simply nodded his head and responded to his aunt’s question like a zombie.
“That’s right…”
Jade quickly grabbed hold of Alex’s arm and forced the man to pay attention to her. There was almost a puppy dog look in her eyes, as she pleaded with Alex not to abandon her. Especially not for an older woman like Shannon.
“Alex… Please… Don’t leave me for that woman! I can’t live without you!”
This had succeeded in getting Alex’s attention. And in response to this, he simply looked over at the girl and cocked his head, before asking what the hell she was talking about.
“Jade? What the hell are you talking about? Didn’t I tell you? Aunt Shannon is one of my many lovers, in fact currently, including you, I have twenty-one different women who I am romantically involved with. Including everyone in this room besides Emily.”
Both Jade and Emily’s jaws dropped as they looked at the three blonde beauties, and their red headed relative with complete and total shock on their faces. After all, Emily had no idea that Alex was fucking Kristina and Diana, in addition to Shannon and Madison.
However, before the two young women could ask just what the hell was going on, they were alerted by security that they had some unannounced guests. Diana picked up her phone and looked at Alex in shock before informing him of just who was waiting outside the door.
“Alex… Your girls are here….”
Alex didn’t fully grasp his mother’s words and asked her to clarify. After all, the last thing he expected was for his other women in Korea to fly out to Vegas without notice.
“My girls? What the hell are you talking about, mom?”
The woman looked at her son with a pedantic expression before explaining to him exactly what she meant.
“Your women… From Korea….”
The moment Alex heard this, he jumped out of his seat, knocking over a bowl of sour cream and onion potato chips as he did so, while freaking out.
“What? What the fuck? What the hell are they doing here? Hold on, are you certain? Let them in. I need to scold these fucking bitches!”
After saying this, Diana informed security to let the sixteen women inside, all of which ran over to Alex and hugged him. Sixteen different questions bombarded Alex at the same time, all of which were approximately the same thing.
“Oh my God! Alex, thank god you’re alright! We heard you were involved in a shootout! You’re not hurt, are you?”
Alex had never been so compelled to strike a woman before in either of his two lives… Well, that was not entirely true, and in fact, he had so many times. The difference was the reason for his anger this time around was not because his women had wronged him in any way, or were simply being annoying.
But because these dumb bitches had just entered what he considered to be an active Warzone, and were now, by virtue of visiting this penthouse marked as potential targets by the many would-be assassins who wanted to kill him and his mother.
Alex was furious that his lovers would put themselves in such danger, all to see if he was okay. I mean, a simple phone call would have sufficed. Because of this, he was quite literally grinding his teeth, which was not a habit he normally had before scolding the women for their absolute recklessness.
“Do you fucking idiots have any idea of the amount of danger you have put yourselves in by coming to visit me right fucking now? Get the fuck back on whatever plane brought you here and go back to South Korea, where you are safe this instant!”
All twenty-two of the women were stunned that Alex had reacted this way. They had never actually seen the man get this angry before. In fact, even Alex was surprised that he cared so much about the wellbeing of other people. But it was because his anger was out of concern for their wellbeing that all of his women fell silent with guilty expressions on their faces. That is until Diana spoke up on their behalf.
“Well, hold on Alex… That’s not fair. These women came all this way just to check to see if they were alright, and your first instinct is to yell at them? That’s not how I raised you!”
Alex had to completely force himself to remain calm, as he explained the situation quite clearly towards Diana, and all the twenty-one other women who were listening to him.
“Mom! For fuck’s sake, somebody is trying to kill the both of us! There is an open contract on our heads with a collective total of fifteen million fucking dollars! Every criminal in this godforsaken city is going to try to gun us down.
And some of them are not above taking hostages to force us to reveal ourselves! By coming here now, all of my women are in danger! Hell, for all we know, the jet that Hee-Young chartered to get them here has had a bomb planted on it by now!”
Alex then shifted his gaze towards all of his women, who were astonished to hear this news. Someone was trying to assassinate their man? Each and every one of them had different expressions. Some were furious, some were horrified, others were just simply happy that Alex was okay.
As for Emily, Jade, and Shannon, this was their first time meeting Alex’s many women, and stared at them all with their own complicated emotions on display. Emily felt angry that Alex had so many women besides her.
Meanwhile Shannon was comparing her looks with the beautiful Asian Milfs who were only a few years younger than her, and felt defeated by doing so, while Jade was looking at these women as if she were going to kill all of them.
After all, Alex was her savior. And from the girl’s perspective, he was the only person she had in her life. He belonged to her; he was her everything. She couldn’t stand the idea of all of these different women trying to steal Alex away from her.
Alex could tell that something was seriously wrong with Jade, and thus he approached her in an attempt to console her.
“So… I may have forgotten to mention that I have plenty of women who love me… Jade… Calm down… They’re not going to steal me away from you… Nor do you have to compete with them for my affection.”
Jade began to look down at her feet while Alex held onto her shoulders. There was a difficult expression on her pretty face. Almost as if she struggled to come to terms with the idea that Alex had so many women who were also in love with him.
But, at the same time, she could understand why. If he was willing to go to such lengths to help a stranger in need, then she could only imagine how he had managed to win all of these women’s hearts. With this in mind, she actually began to smile as she grabbed hold of Alex’s hand and nuzzled her face in it.
“You really are an amazing guy… I am truly unworthy of you….”
Alex smirked when he heard this, before taking Jade into his own embrace and lecturing the girl about the hatred she continued to have for herself.
“That’s not true at all… You’re just as amazing as I am, Jade, and I am glad you are a part of my life. Now, how about you introduce yourself to your sisters properly?”
Sisters… It was a term Jade was not used to hearing. As an only child, she had always been alone. At first, she wanted to murder these different women who surrounded the man she worshipped as her savior.
But the way Alex called them her sisters, and the curious expressions they had on their faces, almost as if they were genuinely interested in welcoming her to the fold. It made Jade rethink her jealousy. Thus, she was quick to introduce herself, with a rather anxious expression on her face.
“Hello… I’m Jade… Jade Graves… Alex is… He’s my savior… So…. If being with him means tolerating the lot of you… I guess I’m okay with sharing. Please take care of me!”
Jade was literally bowing before the other women in Alex’s harem as she said this last part, which caused them all to surround the girl and compliment her.
“She’s so cute! Daddy, can we keep her?”
Sakura’s shameless statement made Jade blush in embarassment. Meanwhile, the other girls all complimented Jade in far more normal ways.
“I love your hair! Is that you natural color?”
Alex took a step back and watched with pride as Jade and his harem began to become properly acquainted. This included those who she already knew. Meanwhile, Emily stood by his side and made a comment on what should otherwise have been a heartwarming scene.
“You know… I’m starting to think that you have formed a cult with all these women….”
In response to this, Alex simply chuckled before issuing a warning to his old childhood friend.
“You just watch yourself, or soon enough you will be on your knees worshipping me as your god as well!”
This remark caused the young cheerleader to blush and avert her gaze. After such a shameless remark, Emily longer found it amusing to mock Alex for his harem.
