Broken Angel

Chapter 15


As Damian and Jai drove the coastal highway, Jai thought about a question he’d wanted to ask then finally did so. “Did you ever date anyone you had been with? Not as a client. I mean personally.”

He looked over at him then answered. “Only one.”

“Ashton.” Jai simply said.

Damian nodded and answered. “Yeah. But that is in the past, Jai. You are the only one who matters to me now, personally.”

Jai touched his hand and replied with a smile. “I don’t care about that. I was just curious is all. I mean, you haven’t really told me much about you. I want to get to know who you are, better. You and Ashton are close friends and I know that. I just feel like a third wheel whenever you two are around each other.”

Damian took his hand into his own then said as they turned off the exit for the Marina. “What Ash and I had in the past is just that. The past. We both have different lives now. What happened back then, was strictly because of work, nothing more.”

“How did you meet him?”

“About a year after I went to work at an agency in Shinjuku for Kielan. When I began working as an escort, I started out as just a date companion for businessmen and women. I met Ashton one night while my date and I was at a convention meeting that this woman was to attend. He was working as a floor waiter and we got to talking. One thing led to another and we ended up back at his place and I lost my payment from the lady I was to accompany all evening, because of my carelessness.”

“So he was your first time then?” Jai asked smiling a little.

“Hah. He’d like to think so. But no, he wasn’t. I was his. But, don’t tell him I said that or we’ll end up with burnt food until he gets over it.”

Jai laughed. Damian grinned parking the Jaguar at Kielan’s apartment then climbed out. After grabbing their bags from the back they headed down the docking bay to where Kielan kept his yacht.

Once reaching it, Jai said as Damian held out his hand. “I’ve never been out on the water before. I won’t get seasick will I?”

“Hardly. We won’t be actually going out on the ocean, just in the bay so the waves won’t be too bad there.” Jai nodded and took his hand then stepped onto the platform and down onto the floor. Damian continued as he led the way towards to cabin stairs. “Watch your head when you first go down these, it’s kind of low.”

Jai followed him and did as he was instructed. Once stepping off the third step, his jaw slightly dropped. The place he saw before him looked like a miniature apartment. Brown wood paneling spread through out the space along with dark blue carpeting that covered the floors. A living room space sat to his right and a kitchen was just ahead of him on the left with what appeared to be a small bedroom, straight ahead with curtains that were pulled back and tied. He spoke finding his voice again. “This is gorgeous. Does Master Kielan actually stay on this?”

Damian smiled at his formality then responded walking up to him. “Don’t let him hear you call him that. He just likes Kielan.” Jai nodded. “Yeah he does stay here whenever the weather is nice enough for boating. Otherwise he stays at his apartment, which is were we parked the car. Although Kie works in L.A., Marina Del Ray is where he actually lives. Not to bad, is it?”

“No, it’s perfect. Have you ever wanted one of these?”

“I’ve thought about it. But I have enough upkeep with the estate to douse my desire for one. Kielan’s lucky in that, because he has several people who help him maintain the properties that he owns. I don’t know how he does it all.” Damian answered sitting down on the blue seating section.

Jai walked over and knelt down in front of him then asked. “I know that he owns an agency and a club. But you said properties. Or are those it?”

“He inherited several businesses from his father, when he passed away two years ago. His mother didn’t want them and chose to sign them over to her sons. Besides owning an exclusive agency, which he started here on his own with the help of a friend of his. Kielan inherited a nightclub and a hotel. But the newest club that we went to was his own creation and had nothing to do with his father. He has three brothers who inherited their own properties as well, but I’ve only met Seth and Trace.”

“What about the one in Tokyo?” Jai asked.

“He sold that one to another friend of his before he left Japan and move back here to be with his family.”

“Is it okay if I ask you something concerning Kielan?”

Damian caressed his face then stated with a smile. “Baby, you can ask me anything you want. I don’t wan hid hide anything from you. The more you know about me, the better I’ll feel.”

Jai nodded then asked laying his head down on his lap. “How did you meet him?”

Damian placed a hand on Jai’s head then answered softly running his fingers through his dark hair. “That honor actually goes to Tara’s dad. I had been working for his agency for about three years and when she and I had our falling out, which I told you about, I chose to go to a rival service. Well, that service belonged to Kielan. Mr. Takashi found out about what had happened between his daughter and myself, as well as why, and he was not too pleased with her. He had never allowed his members to use domination with his clients, and it was actually a rule all of his members had to uphold. Either they did, or they were gone. His strict policy on the matter caused Tara to ignore the rule and did so anyway. I didn’t care for it myself, still don’t now and told him about what she was doing. After he confronted her about it, she took it out on me and I left. It wasn’t too long after my doing so that someonom Kom Kielan’s agency called me saying that he had wanted to meet me. That I had been recommended to him by another host service.”

“Wow. Tara’s dad recommended you to a rival service? Wouldn’t that be considered bad business?”

“Under normal circumstances, yes. But Mr. Takashi had known Kielan for about ten years. Kie had started out working for him and had always considered him a friendly rival, when Kie began his own agency. Mr. Takashi did whatever he could to help him out when his service first started up and in return, Kielan did the same for him. The Takashi name was like royalty in that area and anyone who is recommended by him or one of his agencies in general are set for life, pretty much. His places set the standards high and most would work to compete with him, because of it.”

“How old are Kielan and his brothers?” skedsked looking up at him.

Damian replied. “Seth is the youngest, followed by Tracey. Then it’s Kielan and their older brother. He’s the only one that I’ve never met. So I don’t know anything about him. Why, do you want Kielan?” smirking a little.

“No.” Jai stated with his own then added moving into his lap. “But I do want to know whatever you had learned from him.”

“Is that so?” Damian grinned looking into his eyes.

“Yeah. It’s so.” Jai answered back moving his hips slowly across the soft material of Damian’s shorts.

Damian sighed kissing him deeply. He could feel his shaft responding to the teasing gestures then said breaking it with softer ones. “I think, before we get too carried away here. We should undock and head out to the bay.”

“Why?” Jai asked with a playful pout.

He smiled tracing his lips with a thumb. “Because, out there we won’t be interrupted by anyone and you won’t be able to get away from me.” Jai flicked his tongue across it then finally agreed, freeing the one below him and stood up. The dark haired bass player stood as well and added tilting his chin up. “If I’m not careful, I’ll end up turning you into who I used to be.”

“What’s so bad about that?”

“Because, I love you just the way you are, kitten.” He replied kissing his lips tenderly. Jai then nodded and disappeared up the stairs. Damian said quietly to the empty cabin. “Kie. I don’t want him to ever be like I was. What should I do?” He half expected a reply from his friend but when not receiving one, he shook his head then climbed the stairs as well and out on to the deck. Damian watched Jai while the other stood near the front of the medium sized vessel, taking in his small muscular frame that wore shorts and a sleeveless tank top. After a few seconds, he walked towards him putting his arms around Jai’s waist and kissed his neck.

“Excuse me, my lord. But I have the information regarding what you had asked Julian to find out and he dropped off some photos for you as well.”

“Ah good, some news that I can lighten my mood with. Please, tell me.” Seth said pouring a drink. He then asked turning around. “Photos?”

“Yes sir. That is what it’s in the white envelope. The other information about Damian’s new keep is that the young man is scheduled to work the dinner hour at Bellows Restaurant until closing, this Saturday. Should I make special arrangements for you to attend?”

Thanks, Avery. I’ll look at the photos during my evening soak. As for the restaurant, I personally won’t be going because the kitten knows me. Jin and Julian will be in my place.”

“Of course my lord. I shall go and ready your bath.”

“Avery. Before you do. How is Miss Tara doing?”

“She’s fine sir. Just some cuts but nothing too severe. I removed the restraints she wore to tend to her then afterwards gave her something to help her sleep.”

“Very well. Just keep an eye on her. The last thing I need right now is for Tara to escape and go running to Kielan. Or her father.”

“Yes my lord. Anything else?”

“Yeah. Actually. I have someone that I want you to locate for me. Hold on and I’ll give you the address.” Seth said rummaging his desktop then added handing the paper to the other. “This young man works as a model and since I know you used to be a photographer, maybe you can coax him into doing some work for you. Here.”

“You want me to lure this young man here, sir?”

“Yes. Please see to it that he is. I will deal with the remainder of the quest after that.”

Avery studied him silently then finally answered. “Very well, my lord. I shall do as you ask.” Then left closing the door behind him.

“Don’t cross me Avery. I’ve known you for far too long to lose you now.” Seth said to the vacant room. He then grabbed the white envelope and opened it then studied a few of the contents within. He smiled brightly and said walking towards the door. “Erotic shit. I love it.” And walked out of his office.
