The Sins of Anna
Chapter 78 Shady Lady 30.2

****

When I stepped outside, A black Lexus sat out front with it's engine running. Not waiting for the driver to get out and open the door I descend the front stairs and climb in giving orders to the driver as to where they were taking me. The driver nods not turning around. The drive it quiet as I look out into the dark streets only lit by the street lights. I we pass Hashiro Corp. Was Ren still there working? Was he off entertaining another high maintenance actress who thought she was too good for her job and needed coddling. Was he handling meetings for new commercial projects? When would I stop thinking about him so easily? The street lights became less and buildings began to look more worn. I glance out the window at a couple on a corner my eyes naturally notices the exchange and slide of hand. One was selling, one was buy. We where in the part of town I generally in the part of town I stayed clear of and for good reason. David had always warned me that woman innocent like me would go missing in this part of town. I chuckle at my thoughts woman like I use to be. I wasn't the stupid naive woman I had been in the past. Sad part is back than I would have been terrified and insecure everything I am seeing now and have seen I would have run in panic to get as far away as I could. I also would never have gone looking for trouble. Now though I pinch myself to make sure I still feel pain but this I feel nothing, nothing but completing the objective.

The car pulls up in front a small club. A red over hang cups the door which is illuminated by a red light. On the door in gold lettering red straight down Shady Lady. This was it. The door handle was a golden silhouette of a woman stretched provocatively. I open the door stepping in. The music deafening me for a second. I look around taking in the scene. Woman bouncing around in skimpy lingerie of all different styles clinging to the arms of gentleman, some caring trays with alcohol bottles and glasses to serve, and some heading to what looks like a back room behind a thick black door near the back of the building. Outside it had looked small hit inside inside I noticed two floors. I stroll over to the bar where a cute little blonde who to me looked barley 18 in a pure white see through robe, black push up bra and black panties that barley covered anything could be seen under elegantly walked over smiling.

"Are you a new hire?" she asked smiling from ear to ear giving me a once over. I look at myself subconsciously. I had come dressed to impress not sure what to expect. The maroon crisscross choker neck ribbed v-cut Halter top did show off a lot, paired with the Black mini skirt though I made damn sure was long enough that I could hide a thigh harness under it strapping one of my guns to the inner thigh and on out thigh on both legs is a very this almost undetectable blade so sharp its like a doctors scalpel.

"No sorry, I'm just a customer. is IT okay that I'm not a guy? I ask bashfully. The girl blushes but her eyes almost look excited.

"Please do let me know if you decided to buy any services tonight." I don't miss the new sexiness she added to how she spoke. I order a drink for now, from the girl who I learn is called Jenny. I don't see my target, hell considering I don't even know who sent me the message but I damn well could assume who it was. I didn't see him either. I begin making my way around all the black leather couches, and tables and whined my way to the up stairs I look around making sure I'm not being followed.

Upstairs was much like down stairs except the seats had curtains to close them off from prying eyes. One by one I pass by. I decided to just take a peek, What the hell do you think your doing. The noise made me jump and my hand that had been holding onto one of the curtains flings it open in surprise on accident. Surprising the inhabitants as well. Problem was They now all had guns pointed at me and at Ren who stood behind me. He was the one who had just scared the fuck of of me.

" Sorry about that boys." I say winking at them trying to play it off cool, as if I was one of the hostess. I bend down enough to let then look down my top putting my hand on the gun in front of me pushing it down to be lowered. I lick my lips. "I was trying to show Lord Feng here a good time I hadn't realized his normal spot was taken I do hope you can forgive a newbies mistake." I say sweetly.

"Yeah sure, sweet cheeks but when your done with him make sure you come back." the one whose gun I lowered said as he directs the rest to do the same.

"Sure thing handsome." I say before I close the curtain. I turn seeing an amused look on Rens face. I punch him in the gut watching him double over couching a little but laughing as

I walk away. But he quickly catches up.

"I asked what you where doing in a place like this?"

"Oh, who knows, maybe I just needed a little stress release." I say tossing my hair behind my shoulder.

He grabs my wrist and pulls me back I slam hard against him. "If you need stress release you can ask me for that." I glare up at him.

"Oh can I? Last time I checked. You where out still even at this late hour and you smell of cheap french perfume." I watch as he subconsciously smells himself and curses.

"These are two different matters, there's no way you're here for that, so tell me what the hell you doing here? You're making some pretty big splashes lately and people are starting to notice. You want enemies you're getting them. " He growls shaking me like a child that won't listen.

"I'm not a fucking child Ren, I can take care of myself. You made sure of that." I growl back. "Why are you here how did you know I was here?" I asked but as soon as I did, the answer came. "God damn it Jack." I whispered to myself.

"Yeah you got everyone fucking worrying about whose toes your stepping on."

"Once I finish my objective you won't have to worry about it anymore." I growl lowly to where only he can here.

"And what is your goal here Anna?" His voice now matching mine. I bite my lip looking away. "Angel face what is so important you couldn't wait for someone to come with you and you even told Jack not to come because you knew it was dangerous." I turned back to him bewildered. Had Jack told him everything about our conversation.

"Well; if I might interrupt I'd say she was probably meeting me Ren darling."
