Don't toy with me: sexiest man of the year

A CONDITION

Angela looked up in tears, and upon seeing Antonio, every drop of them ceased. She didn't want him to see her in such a vulnerable state. “Big brother-in-law is here, I told y'all suckers!” Jace snapped proudly, two fingers pinching his nose trying to control his nosebleed. “Jace, shut up. Mr. Antonio, you are not needed here,” Angela snapped. He is nothing different from them, she thought. Jace's jaw dropped. “Sister?” Anthonio's face was expressionless. “Who the hell do you think you are, dude! Are you a member of this family? Now if you are not involved with this family's bitch, I will advise you to be on your way while you still can,” the leader said with a smirk, both hands tucked into his pocket. Antonio looked down at him with a disrespectful look, as if he was looking at a child due to their height difference. Then he turned to the first man, who seemed to have recognized him and was sweating profusely in terror. “You can do whatever you wish with the family, I don't care, but don't lay a finger on her… not a scratch,” he ordered, pointing at Angela. Each one of them looked confused by his statement. The loan sharks tried to understand his guys giving them orders. Angela was surprised that he didn't want anything to happen to her. Jace was confused about how he wouldn't let them harm Angela but the rest of them. Then he sighed and covered his face with a palm. “This bitch really getting me in positions I hate to be in,” he groaned inwardly. The little man was triggered when Antonio addressed his subject, ignoring his own question. “How dare you ignore me! You little piece of shit!” the little man yelled furiously. Antonio opened his eyes and glanced at him tiredly through lowered lids, still, he didn't say a word to him. It made the man crazy with anger. “You piece of shit, who do you think you are to look at me with such expression? You may be tall, but I—” “Boss, boss… one second please,” the first man interrupted, his body trembling. The leader turned angrily. “Eh? What is it and why are you shaking like a leaf?” “Boss... this... man... he looks like... no... I believe he is Mr. Antonio Montero, the famous billionaire and actor,” he whispered. “And so what!” the leader yelled, even more triggered, then he turned to Antonio. “Listen, kid, it would be sad if I had to cut your pretty little flawless skin. Now step aside, this is no movie scene or film tricks or a beauty contest. Ever had a bottle or knife stabbed in you? This is not your place, pretty boy.” “Boss, boss,” the second man interrupted him. “What!” “Sir, he was a martial arts champion as a teen. I heard some rumors that he is also involved with high-ranked mafias,” the first man replied in a whisper. “You think martial arts is all a game, fake shit! I am an athlete too!” He turned to Anthonio. “All I see is a woman with a man's body. Listen, kid, do yourself a favor and leave here immediately (addressing his men) you two idiots, enough of being a wuss, take the kids from that bitch.” “What did you just call me?” Anthonio asked calmly, taking a step forward. Someone grabbed his shirt from the back. His eyes stabbed the hand then moved to the face. “Don't cause trouble, Anthonio, I said I will handle it,” Angela said, her body visibly shaking. Antonio's brows raised to his hairline in surprise. He turned around to face her. “Handle it?” He chuckled then leaned close to her ear. Angela frowned. “You mean by trading the twins to them, nice genes, they will make nice sex toys and baby machines.” A slap landed on his cheeks hard. It made the men flinch in shock, their eyes widened and mouth opened. “Sister!” Jace gasped. It was so hard it cut the skin of his soft lip, so it started bleeding, that makes it the first cut on this man's body. Antonio licked his bleeding lip. “Not bad, Freckles,” he smirked. “Get out of here now, and don't ever involve yourself with my family,” Angela yelled, her eyes soaked with tears. Antonio's glance shifted to her brother, who shook his head crying in disagreement to Angela. “Whatever, have fun,” he turned dryly and headed back to his car. “Sister please, you have to let him help us, for goodness sake he is your man!” Jace snapped angrily. He is not here to help, he will never help with no condition attached, Angela thought. She looked back at Anthonio, there's no need to let her hatred for him get in the way and put her nieces in grave danger. “Now bitch, the money or we will take those two with us, your choice, we are no joke, you are wasting our fucking time, bitch!” “Can you give me a minute,” Angela pleaded. “To get 80,000 bucks? Sure, your twins will be in our custody until you get the money.” “Don’t lay a hand on them,” Angela snapped angrily then she sighed. “Jace, please do your best to keep them safe, I will talk to Anthonio,” she said and walked towards the car, the men's glances followed her. Anthonio saw her approaching. “Ha, faster than I expected,” he said to himself. Angela stood by his window side, he opened the door. “Look who's back! What could be going on in that little mind of yours that would bring you back to me after what you did back there?” Angela buried her face in shame. “I… am sorry… I shouldn't have reacted like that, please I need your help... I need the money you promised to pay me for the contract.” Anthonio scoffed. “Are you out of your mind! You haven't even done anything to earn a penny, the contract said you will be paid at the end of each month, this is no month end!” “I know, please, I want an advance payment,” she pleaded, her face still down. Anthonio folded his hand. “Very well, I reject your request.” Angela looked up at him helplessly. “But…” “Bitch, if you need money, go work for it, I am not your personal ATM, do I look easy to you?” He replied dryly. “Sister!” Jace shouted. Angela turned and found the men forcing the twins out of Jace's arms. “You guys, I am getting the money, okay!” She yelled angrily. Quickly she dropped on her knees in front of Anthonio, tears rolling freely down her cheeks. Anthonio raised one brow, curious. “Please, I will do anything, just save my babies from those men, please, I will pay you back… I am ready to do anything!” She pleaded. “Ready to do anything, huh? That sounds interesting,” Antonio grinned. Angela opened her eyes widely. What am I getting myself into? Again! “Well, if you agree to my condition I will help you.” “I will do anything, until I pay you back then I am off the hook,” Angela replied. “Yeah, whatever… until you pay me back,” he replied. Angela had chills from his reply, his voice made it clear. He knew there's no way she would pay such an amount in such a short period of time. “So you are in for the deal.” “Yes.” He smirked and knelt down on one knee, with two fingers he held her chin up. Angela met his eyes and swallowed convulsively. “No matter the time or place, you will spread your legs for me when I say so, that's my condition, can you do that?”
