The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Potentially unsafe
Jason woke up in less than three hours just as soon as the alarm he had set went off. He pushed himself up from the bed and went into the bathroom to have a bath. It was already past the twentieth hour, and there were a lot of thoughts still running through his mind while the water from the shower streamed down his body. He got out as soon as he was done and put on a fresh pair of black suits, brown shoes, a Rolex watch, and a silver necklace to match. He applied to one of the colognes in his collection, and after he had looked at his reflection in the mirror in front of him for a long time, he nodded in satisfaction, and then he walked to the cabinet beside the bed where he grabbed his phone and the card given to him by Larry Bardolf when he invited him to his club after the auction. Jason was determined to find out the kind of involvement Larry had with his father, and when he heard that he had an affiliation with the man who almost killed his Grandfather, his strong will wa
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Club Luna
It took them close to an hour to get to their destination, and as soon as James drove the car into the vicinity of the tall building, he parked a few meters in front of it while the other guard quickly got down from the car and opened the back door for Jason. “Thank you…” Jason stepped out of the car while the guard shut the door, and walked beside Jason toward the entrance of the club which boomed with deafening sounds of disco music that was accompanied by disco lights of several colors that emitted from every little opening in the building. Club Luna was the biggest club in Granada Hills and even beyond. It was a place where highly profiled men came to spend money and to see beautiful ladies who didn't mind showcasing several parts of their bodies just for the amount of money they were going to earn at the end of each party that usually listed all through the night. Apart from the casino and the pool that were in some parts of the building, there was also a VIP room that no o
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Striking Resemblance
Larry observed the men for a while, and he could see they were not so comfortable with the presence of the strange younger man even though he appeared to be very rich. “Calm down, guys. I know what you all are thinking, but I assure you, he can be trusted.” He said with an assuring smile on his face, but some of the men found his words really hard to believe. “Mr. Jones and I had a great time at one of the auctions I attended this month, the last one actually. He won me in a bidding, or should I say I let him win me? He was very persistent, and I really liked that style.” Larry continued while he went to a couch close to Jason and sat down without taking away the smile on his face. “You have absolutely nothing to be worried about, he is one of us, do not look at his young age. I can assure you that he is one of us.” Larry concluded, looking at the other six men one after the other. Some of them nodded in agreement, while the rest who were still not convinced gave Jason suspici

Jason leaned forward almost immediately, and so did the ladies seated at both sides who had their hands all over him. “Mr. Jones? Is everything alright?” The man asked again without taking his eyes away from Jason who cleared his throat before giving him a response. “Yeah! Absolutely, everything is alright!” He responded with a firm tone even though he avoided the man’s eyes afterward. “Maybe he has eyes for that fine young lady with you!” One of the men standing close by said with a smirk, and almost everyone laughed at his words excluding Jason who felt a bit embarrassed. “I don’t mind exchanging her with one of those ladies seated close to you. I love that one with the red lingerie, she is going to really mourn loudly!” “Oh, come on, Mr. Hernandez! You really cannot take your eyes off anything pretty! You should be focused on the beautiful lady in front of you!” Larry said to the man whom Jason had been looking at, but he scoffed at him and pushed the lady rocking him awa
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Man for the Job
Jason turned to look at Philip the moment he saw that Larry was out of sight, and he could see that the middle-aged man seated on the table in front of him was intoxicated even though he tried not to be in full control of himself. “Mr. Hernandez?” “Yes! Yes!” Philip answered at once, looking at Jason who leaned forward to him with a smile on his face. “I think I am interested in joining you guys,” Jason announced with a smile of certainty on his face, hoping that his expression was convincing enough. “Really? Are you sure about this?” “Yes! I am certain of it!” “But you didn’t even give it a thought…” “I don’t think that would be necessary, Mr. Hernandez. Who needs to give such an opportunity a second thought? Especially when it is being handed on a platter, and can even be taken away at any moment.” “You are right! I like you, you know the right things to do!” Philip chuckled excitedly while struggling to keep his eyes open as they continued to close under the influen

Jason remained seated on the couch until he saw the ladies who were instructed by Larry to keep him company returning with excited chuckles. Repulsed by their sight, Jason quickly got up from the couch and turned to look at James who understood what he meant. Quickly, James walked up in front of Jason and then pushed the two ladies aside, preventing them from laying their hands on him with their long nails that had different colors just like the rainbow. “Let’s get the hell out of here, James,” Jason said as he looked at the ladies with a smirk on his face while they staggered backward after James had pushed them away for the second time when they attempted to get closer again. James gestured to the other guard who joined him at once, and they started to walk away from the VIP lounge with steps that almost seemed like running. “Are you leaving already, Mr. Jones? The party is just about to start!” One of the men still in the room said to Jason, lifting his glass of whiskey, bu
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Young meets Old
Jason went to his Grandfather’s door the next morning and knocked twice before he listened attentively with his left ear leaning closer to the door. “Come in.” Lord Walker’s voice resonated from inside the room, and Jason pulled the handle of the door before walking into the room. “Good Morning Grandpa.” He greeted the old man who was already seated on his wheelchair with a magazine in his hands. “Jason? You are back.”“Yes, Granda. I came back last night.” “Oh, yes. Harry said you were going to be back last night when I asked of you. I was wondering where you went to.” “I had to take care of something, Grandpa.” “Mmh? Something more important than your old man?” “Of course, not. You know you are the only one I have left apart from my son. You can’t possibly think that I would forget about you.” Jason grabbed the seat close to the table by the corner of the room and sat close to his Grandfather who dropped the magazine on his legs and placed his hands on top of it. “S
The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. Familiar Enemy
Jason was very anticipatory to hear something positive the moment his Grandfather cleared his throat just before he leaned forward to give him a response. “I am sorry, Jack. I am sure that the name Creed rings a bell from the past, but I am still unable to figure it out.” Lord Walker sighed softly while he kept both hands on his leg and looked at Jason who nodded without being able to control the disappointed look on his face. Jason took in a deep breath which he let out slowly before lifting his head to look at the old man who was sorry that he couldn’t give him the answer he desired. “That’s okay, Grandpa. I am sure that you would have told me if you remembered something.” Jason sighed heavily, and then he forced a smile on his face while he battled with the conflict that nestled in his mind. Lord Walker stared at him for a while, and when he couldn’t get rid of the curiosity that Jason had ushered into his body, he was forced to speak up. “Is there any problem? Why are yo
