Nic and Joey drove around town then back to Las Vegas Boulevard where he took her to Suite 6. This was the Suite where he would usually take girls when he wanted to sleep with them. He opened the door and announced, "We're here!"
Joey looked into the Suite. "Is there something special about this suite?" she asked playing naive.
"This is where I bring girls." Nic replied jumping on his bed.
"Is this how you want me to pay you back?" she asked trying to look shocked although she was expecting it from the rumors she heard about him. Nevertheless she was feeling this second thought about him until now.
"Yup." Nic said taking off his jacket to throw it on the sofa that was a few feet from his bed.
Joey now believed everything she heard about Nic. He only wanted girls for their bodies, just like every other man. When he was done using them, his kind act would go away, typical of men. She was disappointed thinking she almost fell for his act. She felt like such an amateur.
"Come here." Nic called to her as he took off his pant belt.
She didn't know if she should go with it or not but she couldn't spoil her father's plans so she slowly took off her jacket. She didn't know why but at that moment she was hesitant on taking off her clothes. She had taken it off countless times in the past in front of other men, but at that moment she felt reserved.
She was taking so long thinking and taking off her coat that Nic got up from his bed to get her. "Come here, I want to show you the different games we'll be playing."
Joey looked at him strangely, "You have games! What kind of sicko are you?" she asked somewhat irritated. Why was she irritated, she didn't know. Maybe beause she almost fell for his act, maybe becuase she was starting to like him. Maybe.... she kept wondering to herself.
Nic blinked his eyes looking at her. "Yeah I have Tetris, Super Mario Brothers, Mario Kart and more. How sick is that?" he asked surprised by her reaction.
Joey covered her mouth. "Oh... I.... I didn't..." she said feeling somewhat embarassed.
"What were you thinking?" he asked her with a sly grin.
"I thought you wanted me to repay you with sex." She blurted out then closed her mouth quickly blushing.
Nic laughed. "I can have sex with any girl and it doesn't cost more than a few hundred, why would I waste a few thousand just to screw you?" he said jokingly.
Joey didn't find it so funny but she had to go with the good girl act and turned around, pretending to be mad.
"Don't be insulted." He said trying to persuade her.
She turned back around and looked at him. "Only if you promise to listen to me for a whole week." she said.
Nic thought about it for a moment and nodded. "How about if you beat me in one of these games, then I'll listen to you for a week." he suggested.
Joey turned back around and smiled, "You'll listen to everything I tell you to do?" she asked.
Nic nodded, "Yup everything!" he said assuredly.
Joey smiled, "You're on!"
They played games for the rest of the night and each time Nic let Joey win. He didn't know why but he didn't want to just have sex with her and forget about her. He never felt this way. Another secret he had was his games which he didn't share with anyone except Louis and Ekin. And at the moment he shared them with Joey.
Joey was excited wining each game. It felt good to do something other than have sex with a man. She never experienced that either. Most of the time the deal was for her to sleep with some man and seduce him into a trap with Simon. Today she was playing a game fully clothed and enjoying it.
That night they fell asleep by each other's side after a long night of video games. Nic wrapped his arms around Joey as he slept and she cuddled into his embrace.

About an hour later a figure appears on the balcony of Suite 6. It was obviously a man from his figure and body. He manages to easily slip the balcony sliding door open form its lock. He enters slowly and softly avoiding any sudden sounds.
He lifts his gun to shot Nic in the head when Nic suddenly stirs and another head is seen lying on his chest. The gunman freaks and nearly drops his gun. He scrambles to get out of there before he can be detected.
Once outside and safe on ground floor he removes his mask to reveal it's Stephen. He looks around for anyone that saw him and notices nobody, so he runs off.

[ THE NEXT DAY ]
Frankie wakes up and finds Annie in his bed. She's obviously naked and so is he! He jumps up waking her. She looks at him with sleepy eyes. "Morning." She says sheepishly.
"What are you doing here?" he questions her. His face is full of shock and surprise.
"I brought you and Marco home yesterday after the wedding banquet. You two were very, very drunk." She replies and turns around on the bed.
"Get up what do you think you're doing?" Frankie screams trying to pull her up.
Annie smirks, "What are you afraid Marco will see me in here?" she questions him.
Frankie suddenly realized that Marco is in the other room and if he sees Annie here in this condition he would freak. "You have to get out now or else Marco will find out."
"I don't care." Annie replies.
"Oh please, please leave. I don't even know how this happened." He says looking around for his clothes to put on.
He tries to stand up but he is absolutely nude underneath so he sits back down to cover himself. Annie laughs at his attempt. "Don't try to cover it, I've seen it all and enjoyed it yesterday, nothing special about it." Annie jokes.
"Turn around!" Frankie orders her.
Annie pretends to turn around. Frankie gets up to get his clothes and Annie turns around then pounces on him. They both fall on the bed. She laughs hysterically and starts to kiss him. At first Frankie pushes her away but then he is just a man and cannot resist a woman's tender lips.
He wraps his arm around her and welcomes her kisses. Annie giggles as she realizes she has won him over. They continue kissing and Marco suddenly opens up the door.
He is petrified at what he sees. His mind is spinning and is heart is tearing up inside. The pain, the hate, the jealousy all roared up inside and he punched Frankie. Annie covers herself up with the bed sheet and jumps from the bed.
Annie slaps Marco once more. "Stop this nonsense!" she screams at him. She helps Frankie up and caresses his face. "Are you okay." She asks in pouting voice. Frankie pushes her hands off him.
Annie walks over to Marco, "Get out of here! I never want to see you again!" she yells.
Marco is stunned by her anger towards him. He gives Frankie one last evil stare as he runs out. Annie walks back over to Frankie. She wraps her arms around him to kiss him. He pushes her way. She laughs and give him one last kiss on the cheek before she gathers her things to leave.

Nnadia wakes up and looks around the room. She realized that she was in her new house with Ekin. She looks over at him lying besides her. She touches his chest. He has many scars. They're very rough even though they were from long ago. She figured they were probably very deep. She looks at him and smiles to herself. Suddenly she realizes what she's doing. She's admiring Ekin's body!
She couldn't. She can't. She shakes her head trying to get these thoughts out of her. 'He's a Wong Nnadia, don't even think about it.' she tells herself. 'You don't love him.' she tells herself. 'You have...." she was saying when EKin woke up and interrupted her thoughts.
"Hi honey!" he says to greet her.
Nnadia tries to smile with him. "Morning." She says.
"This is our first morning together, let's stay in bed." Ekin suggest.
"No we have so much to do for the restaurant and casinos. There's no way we can rest right now." She replies looking at Ekin.
Ekin playfully pouts. "Let's just stay her and enjoy the day."
"No!" Nnadia insists and tries to drag him off the bed. She tries to lift him only to have him fall on her.
He refused to get up. "I'm going to squish you so you can stay on this bed with me." Ekin says playfully and pretends to press her down.
Nnadia screams playfully, "Let me go!' she shouts.
"Never." Ekin replies and starts to kiss her. Nnadia kisses him back and after a short while she gets up from the bed.
"How does breakfast in bed sound?" she asked him playfully. "I'll make it." she added.
"Suit yourself. I'll eat anything you make!" he replied.
"Okay," Nnadia said getting her robe on and walking out of the room.
Right when she was leaving her room, she saw Ada coming out of Louis's room. She's confused and shocked. She didn't realize Ada came home with Louis last night. Ada sees her and freezes. She looks away unsure of the situation they are now in. Nadia was about to walk up to Ada and question her but Louis interrupts them.
"How could you forget your bra?" Louis said coming towards the door. Ada gasped unsure how Nadia would react. When he reached it he saw Nnadia and greeted her too. "Morning Ah So (sister in law)!"
Nnadia smiled at him and said, "Hello Ye Suk (2nd brother in law)" she said to him then looked over at Ada before she looked back at Louis again. "Do you mind showing me the kitchen? I wanted to make your brother breakfast."
"Sure!" Louis says and looks at Ada. "Why don't you stay for breakfast?"
Ada shakes her head, "No I couldn't possibly stay, I would be intruding." She replies.
Nnadia looks at her and insists, "No you must stay for breakfast. You can help me."
Ada realizes that Nnadia wanted to talk to her and nods, "If you insist."
"I do." Nnadia says firmly.
Louis smiles. "Great, I'll show you the kitchen. You can have the cooks prepare it."
"No, I rather do it myself, it'll be more meaningful." Nnadia replies.
Louis smiles happily that his brother has made such a good choice. He places on arm over Ada as the three walk to the kitchen. When they arrived Louis introduces Nnadia and Ada to the head cook then Nnadia tell him to inform Ekin that they would be eating in the dinning room together so Louis leaves. Nnadia also sends all the cooks away saying she wants to make the food all by herself.
Once everyone was gone Nadia turns her attention to Ada. "Why are you here?"
Ada is nervous and not sure what to say. "I came home with him last night. I don't know what came over me. I was confused. I couldn't help it."
"You weren't required to sleep with him."
"I wanted to."
Nnadia was shocked. "Do you like him?" she asked going through the cupboards.
"I don't know. All I know is he makes me feel very special. He has this charm to him. I don't know how to describe it." She says with her hands against her forehead.
Nnadia looks around. "It's okay," she says to comfort Ada. "We'll all be okay. Don't worry we're going to get out of this and we're all going to be okay. The Wong brothers will help all of us."
"How about Kristy?" Ada questions. "She's the only one that hasn't come close to one of them. Louis is suspicious of her."
"Don't worry, we'll help her too. I would never let anything happen to her."
"I'm afraid we're getting ourselves in too deep. No mission has ever gone this far."
"It's ok, this will be our last mission. I'll make sure of it." Nnadia reassures her.
Ada nods. Then they heard Ekin and Louis's voices and pretend to get pots and food from the refrigerator to cook.
Ekin walks in first. "Nice to know my bride wants to personally cook for me." he says walking over to her, wrapping his arms around her waist and kissing her on the cheek.
"I'm surprised you were willing to get out of bed." She remarks.
"Well I guess I had to get out of there sooner or later." He said then walked over to Louis who was standing next to Ada. "You should be proud, you're the first girl he brought home." Ekin teases Ada.
Ada coyly blushes and Louis nudges his brother. Ekin and Nnadia laugh.

After breakfast Louis drops Ada off at her supposed home and drives back to one of the Casinos. On his way he notices a girl running rapidly across the street. A man is chasing her and she is throwing things at him. When he gets closer he notices its kevin and Kristy. He immediately drives over to them and stops his car right in front of Kristy. She is shocked to see him. His car almost ran into her and she pauses. Cars are beeping them because they've just blocked a portion of the road. But Louis doesn't care.
Kevin catches her and yells, "Fuckin bitch! You got some balls, making me run this far!" he says picking up his hands to hit her.
Louis immediately catches it. "What the fuck are you doing?" he questions.
"Hey Dai Lo! I didn't see you!" Kevin says letting his grasp of Kristy go.
"What's going on?" Louis questions him.
"This fuckin cunt right here doesn't want to spread her fuckin legs!" Kevin remarks.
Louis smirks. "Get out of here. I'll talk to you later." He says to Kevin.
"But the bitch..." Kevin was saying filled with anger but he was cut off by Louis's stern disapproving look. Kevin fidgets jmupily and shouted. "You gave her to me and told me I could fuck her!" Kevin yells.
Louis stares at him again. Kevin shakes his head and rummages through his hair. "What the fuck?" he asked with irritation. "Hell with it then!" he said noticing Louis's expression.
"If she doesn't want to fuck you, leave her alone." Louis demands.
Kristy observes the two. More cars were honking and getting upset. Many already went around them. Kevin has no choice but to leave because he can?t go against his boss. He reluctantly leaves pissed off.
"Are you okay?" Louis asks her.
This is the third time Louis has saved her. Tears were forming in her eyes. She didn't know what to think of him. One minute he was so easily able to give her up to another man but the next minute he was protecting her. Her heart was more confused than ever. She wondered if there was a reason he did all this or was he just teasing her?
Louis noticed her tears and quickly motioned her into his car. "What happened between you and Kevin?" he asked as they started driving. Kristy got into the car without answering him. She looked at him blankly.
Louis tried again, "Tell me what happened between you two. I thought you fucked anyone who provided the money." he asked brutely. She refused to say anything.
Louis was losing his temper. "Am I talking to myself?" he asked with irritation. She still didn't talk. She didn't want to answer him because she didn't know what to say. "Hello?" he asked.
About 30 seconds past. "Talk to me, now!" he demanded.
Finally Kristy spoke. "Stop, let me out." She persisted trying to open the door.
"Stop it!" he yelled, "What you trying to do, kill yourself?" he asked stopping her from opening the door. The car swayed somewhat out of control.
"Let me out!" she demanded in a higher tone of voice.
Finally Louis stopped the car and Kristy quickly jumped out. Louis ran after her. "What the hell are you doing?" he yelled running after her.
Kristy refused to answer him and kept running. Louis wasn't a slow runner and she wasn't really trying to run away from him so he caught up with her very quickly, grabbed her, and forced her to look at him. "What's going on with you?" he asked he panting from all the running.
"What do you care!" she yelled struggling out of his grasp.
"You were once my woman. I have the right to care." he responded matter-of-factly.
Kristy chuckled. "It's men like you
"You can so easily throw me to another man, why must you treat me this way?"
Her question came as a shock to him. He never realized how much he cared about her. At first he thought she was just another girl to sleep with. But now he questioned his emotions for Kristy? Suddenly he wondered what Ada meant to him.
