SHORT STORY: PLEASE LEAVE COMMENT. THANKS Nicholas James, known to everyone as Nico, stirred awake in the dim light of his bedroom. The morning sun struggled to penetrate the heavy curtains that veiled his suite in an upscale Houston high-rise. At 24, Nico was the epitome of privilege and power, a scion of the James family, steeped in old Texas wealth and political clout. His father, Conner James, was in the midst of a heated campaign for the governorship, a campaign that Nico relished as his chance to solidify his dominance over those who dared to challenge the James legacy. He turned over, grimacing as he noticed the woman sprawled next to him. Her dark hair fanned out across his pillow, and the faint scent of her perfume lingered in the air, mingling with the staleness of last night's revelries. Nico ran a hand through his tousled hair, already feeling the weight of the day's expectations pressing down on him. He reached for his phone on the nightstand and dialed a number ...
Shawn Peters leaned back in the plush leather chair, his muscular frame relaxed yet exuding the kind of quiet confidence that filled the dimly lit VIP section of the club. The black tank top he wore clung to his chest, emphasizing every sharp line of his perfectly sculpted body, each tattooed arm resting casually on the armrests as if he had nowhere better to be.

Chase Routledge stood in front of the mirror, the dim light casting eerie shadows across his chiseled features. His sandy blonde hair fell perfectly into place, framing a face that, while handsome, was marred by an unsettling intensity in his deep-set eyes. He wore a snug blue polo shirt that clung to his muscular chest and arms, the fabric barely containing the brute strength underneath. His jeans, a faded blue, were tight enough to showcase his powerful legs, hinting at the menace he carried in every step. As he buckled his leather belt, the buckle gleamed under the flickering light, adding to his intimidating aura. He grabbed his black leather jacket, slinging it over one shoulder with a practiced motion. Standing there, he looked every bit the part of the alpha male he envisioned himself to be.
