Part 1

The shrill ringing of the phone finally penetrated the deep slumber of Lex Luthor, bald, billionaire playboy, President and CEO of LexCorp. He growled when the image of a certain feisty and very, very naked blonde reporter began to recede from his mind and reality began to set in.

Damn! Lex exclaimed as he turned over onto his side and blearily glanced at the clock. 3:00 AM.

“This had better a fucking emergency!” Lex muttered as he vividly remembered the image of Chloe Sullivan’s glistening body as she writhed underneath him screaming his name in pleasure. Clearly remembering the desire in her vivid green eyes and the seductive smile on her lips, Lex felt his body harden painfully and the image stayed with him for a few seconds before the ringing of his cell phone interrupted. He sat up in his large king-sized bed and turned on the light.

“Luthor!” Lex answered by way of greeting, a plan forming in his mind on how to verbally decimate whoever was calling.

“Lex?” a soft feminine voice came through the receiver. Lex stopped breathing for a moment. Shock reverberated throughout his body and he felt his mouth uncharacteristically hang open.

“Lex, are you there?” the voice once again questioned when Lex didn’t immediately reply. Shutting his mouth with a snap, Lex shook his head in wonder.

“Lana?” Lex questioned still uncertain if he was hearing the voice correctly.

“Lex! Oh, Lex! I’m so glad you are there.” Lex heard relief fill her voice.

“Lana? What’s the matter? What is going on?” Lex asked hearing other voices in the background.

Where in the hell is she? And at 3:00 in the morning.

“Well, Lex…You see…” Lana’s voice drifted off. Uncertain of how to proceed.

God, Lana, this is no time to act the delicate young miss. Tell him already!...a familiar disgruntled voice called from far away.

“Chloe?” Lex murmured. Confusion evident on his handsome features.

“I’m trying…Will you give me a minute? You just can’t spring this on him.” Lana replied her voice slightly faded as she answered Chloe.

Yes you can! This IS Lex Luthor! Not Clark Kent! If anything, this should be a brief stroll down memory lane.

Was that an insult? He asked himself.

“Chloe… he’s on the phone.” Lana muttered in a slightly lower voice not realizing Lex could still hear her clearly.

Bossy little bit. Ain’t she? … An unfamiliar male voice chimed in.

“Tell me about it! Try living with her.” Lana answered the male voice, her voice filled with exasperation.

Ouch! Bummer! …another male voice chimed.

Hello…In the same room…Thank you!…Don’t you have something to do? Chloe sarcastically exclaimed.

“Lana, what is going on?” Lex asked once again trying to get control of the conversation.

“Well Lex…” Once again her voice drifted off.

Lana, sometime this year please!

“Lex, you see…” Lana began only to be interrupted by Chloe’s voice.

Oh, for crying out loud! Give ME that phone!...Chloe griped.

Lex heard a brief muffle before he heard the sensual voice of the object of his x-rated dreams.

“Lex. Chloe. Lex, we need you’re help!” Chloe went on in a no nonsense tone.

“All right! For the last time! What is going on?” Lex growled as his frustration was beginning to mount.

“Hey! Do not take that tone with me, mister! I’m getting there.”

“Chloe!!” Lex stressed her name while trying to control his temper. Chloe Sullivan was the only woman who could thoroughly exasperate him one minute and want to ravish her the next.

“Okay! Geez, don’t get your britches in a twist! We need you to come down to the Metropolis PD Precinct on 39th and Ocean. We’ve been mistakenly arrested and we need you to bail us out.” Chloe said disgustedly.

Miss, there’s no mistake about a prostitution charge…one of the male voices explained.

“Do you mind? I am TRYING to have a conversation. Go file some reports!” Chloe huffed into the phone.

Oh God! This is a nightmare…Lex heard Lana’s voice moan with despair.

“Jail? Jail!” Lex’s voice rose another notch. “What do you mean you’re in jail?”

“Lex, hon, Actions first…Questions later…So put on whatever you have to and get down here quickly…Okay…Bye…Oh, Lana wants to talk with you…” and with that Chloe was off the phone.

Why the little witch!

“Lex?” Lana voice came once again through the receiver.

So Officer… Burrows, is that correct?...Lex heard Chloe’s voice as she began to question one of the police officers.

Yes miss…Officer Burrows responded.

So, Officer Burrows, would you like to comment on the rampant corruption taking control of the Metropolis Police Department? Chloe asked innocently.

“Hurry!” Lana groaned as she hung up the receiver.

Lex stared into space as the insanity of the situation hit him. Somehow he was not surprised that the spunky blonde reporter was the ringleader of this mess.

Probably instigated the whole situation. Prostitution! Just then the true meaning of the words Chloe uttered about it being a ‘stroll down memory lane’ hit him and he couldn’t help the grin that formed on his face. He almost felt pity for the officers on duty. Chloe Sullivan was a force to be reckoned with and he was actually looking forward to clashing with spunky blonde.

***********

“I can not believe this! The incompetent bastards! You’ll hear from my lawyer!” Chloe Sullivan roared as she glared at the bars before her.

“What lawyer?” Lana asked.

“I don’t know. They always say that in the movies.” Chloe shrugged.

“Chloe! This is serious!” Lana cried her patience begin to slip away.

“What? I’m not supposed to exercise my freedom of speech by stating the simple truth!” Chloe exclaimed.

“Chloe, you’ve done enough ‘exercising’ of speech for one night!” Lana voiced as she dropped her head into her hands.

“Lana, don’t worry. Lex will be here very, very soon.” Chloe cheerfully exclaimed.

“It’s a good thing he’s is staying in Metropolis for the weekend. What would we have done if not?” Lana asked horrified.

“Well there’s always your Aunt Nell? Or Clark.” Chloe replied cheekily. Lana glared at her.

“You’re actually enjoying this, aren’t you? We are in JAIL! JAIL! I can’t believe this. I, Lana Lang, am in jail! And for Prostitution! Me! A prostitute.” Lana yelled.

“Lana, dear, I think the way you are dressed may have had something to do with it.” Chloe grinned. The other two women in the cell chuckled at Chloe’s remark.

“I can’t believe I let you talk me into that crazy scheme of yours.” Lana jumped up from the bench she had been sitting on and began pacing the small cell.

Chloe’s hands immediately went to her hips.

“I…” Chloe began “Did not TALK you into anything? You insisted on coming with me remember.”

“Only because you insisted on going off on this deranged scheme of yours. But you know you’re right. This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have come.” Lana’s voice shook.

Chloe rolled her eyes. PLEASE! She is such a drama queen!

“Lana, we’ve only been here for a little over an hour. Don’t you think you’re overreacting just a tad bit?”

Lana turned towards Chloe and narrowed her dark eyes.

“Overreacting! No I don’t think I’m overreacting! WE ARE IN JAIL! And what’s worse was we could have been upstairs with the officers, comfortably awaiting Lex but NOOOO…You HAD to go there. You had to start accusing them of corruption! You HAD to piss them off. Well I hope you are FUCKING happy!” Lana screeched.

Chloe stood still for a moment. She had never seen Lana Lang totally loose her temper before. It was quite strange…

“Lana, do you know that when your pissed off you’re left eye begins to twitch uncontrollably?” Chloe asked.

“Aaaah! Shut up! Shut up! Do NOT talk to me!” Lana moved to sit back on the bench.

“Jesus! Would you please shut the fuck up!” a tall bleached blonde had stood up and shouted at Lana. “How in the hell do you deal with her, Chlo?” The bleached blonde turned in Chloe’s direction.

“What can I say? I am a saint, Rox!” Chloe teased, her green eyes were twinkling merrily.

“That’s for sure. If it was me, I would have stuff something down the princess’s throat a long time ago.” She glared in Lana’s direction. Lana stepped back a little.

A wicked gleam shone in Chloe’s green eyes.

“Hey, Roxy, where do the ladies in these cells take a leak?” Chloe asked looking around the cell. Lana immediately shot up from the bench. Disgust marring her lovely features.

“Chloe!!!” Lana screeched at Chloe’s and the other ladies laughter. Chloe couldn’t help it. Lana was just too easy.

“Chloe!” Lana screamed making Chloe laugh even harder. Tears began to fall from her eyes.

“S-Sorry Lana, but I just had to do it!” Chloe breathed out between her laughter.

“Well I’m glad someone is enjoying themselves.” A deep, husky voice called out sending shivers down Chloe’s spine.

“Lex!” Lana cried. She rushed towards the bars. “Lex, I’m so happy to see you. Please get me out of here. She’s totally lost it! Will you quit laughing?”

Chloe tried to get her laughter under control but it was very difficult. Lana Lang was to the point of totally losing it and she loved every minute of it. Ah, Clark, you should see your Perfect Princess now. Aaaah! He’d probably cry. She grinned at Lex. Lex couldn’t control the smile that formed on his face. Chloe was so adorable.

“Hi Lex! Glad to see you made it.”

TBC...

*************

Part 2

Patience, Lex! Patience! Lex thought to himself as he looked at the furious blonde before him. He had thought she looked adorable in the jail cell until he got a good look at the outfit she was wearing. She looked anything but adorable. Starting with the black six-inch heels she was wearing, his eyes slowly traveled up her long legs clad in sheer black nylons to a barely there black mini-skirt. Her very low cut red halter top didn’t improve his mood.

He could kill her.

Her wild hair and makeup completely her look. Chloe was dressed for sex. Plain and simple. The fact that she left her house dressed like that made Lex want to throttle her. It also didn’t help that he was painfully aroused as he looked at her.

Shit!

“Have you lost your mind? Absolutely not!” He growled. Lex, Chloe and Lana were put into a private room while his lawyer, whom Lex had asked to come down to the station, dealt with the release papers.

“I told you she’s insane!” Lana exasperatedly said throwing up her hands.

“Excuse me! I wasn’t the one two sticks shy of the loony bin just now.” Chloe glared at her roommate. Lana’s whining was grating on her last nerve.

“That’s because you’re the one driving me crazy.” Lana shouted.

“I’m driving you crazy. How exactly am I doing that? Earth to Lana…Not everything is about you.” Chloe gasped at the last part.

“I do not do that!” Lana whined yet again.

“Ha! You think the world resolves around you and your so-called miserable life. Well newsflash…It doesn’t. So get over it already.” Chloe callously went on.

“You bitch!” Lana shouted.

“What!” Chloe said jumping the few feet that separated her from the pink menace. Her intention was to rip out all of the hair on the pink menace’s head strand by strand. Unfortunately, Lex interrupted her plans.

“Ladies. Please. We are getting away from the subject.” Lex said getting in between the two women. He held Chloe by the waist and was surprised to discover how strong she really was. Chloe, meanwhile, was wriggling in Lex’s grasp. Her fingers were itching to get around Lana’s throat.

“Chloe, my answer is no!” Lex went on when Chloe had finally calmed down a bit.

“Why not? They are my friends!” Chloe growled back. She quickly broke away from Lex and turned on him with her hands on her hips. The action only served to emphasize her shapely form and Lex found it very difficult to concentrate.

“Uh…Exactly, how is it that you became friends with prostitutes? And where in the hell is your father?” Lex shouted as his frustration, sexual and otherwise, rose with the feisty blonde.

“They are my friends. Roxy and Sin helped me out of a tight spot a long time ago. I won’t leave them here.” Chloe bellowed. His control begin to slip.

“Do I really want to know how they helped you out?” Lex asked that question more to himself than to Chloe.

“Look…some nasty men where chasing me and Rox helped hide me until they left. That’s all. Nothing to lose sleep over. Now, are you going to bail them out or not?” Chloe replied shouting the last sentence.

Lex couldn’t believe he was even having this discussion. The little minx was going to drive him insane. Okay, time to take control of the conversation.

“Would you mind telling me how both of you happen to be down here and dressed like that?” Lex went on.

“Yes I do!” Chloe crossed her arms across her chest. The action crushed her breasts together. Lex was at a loss for words. He couldn’t help but stared down at the creamy globes. Wonderful!

Chloe noticed his eyes moved away from hers and followed were they traveled.

Her mouth hung open. Is he looking at my breasts?

When she brought her eyes back to his, she noticed a gleam in his eyes.

Lex is looking at my breasts! Should I be upset by that? She asked herself.

“Chloe! What are you doing down here?” Lex continued keeping to the subject at hand although it was very difficult to remember was the subject was.

I wonder if that globe would fit perfectly in my hand…Lex thought.

Damn! Focus! With Chloe, I need to use all of my concentration.

“Uh…Fine! Roxy tipped me to a new drug that hit the streets a few weeks ago. Two friends of hers have already died because of it. Naturally, my reporter’s instincts kicked in and I told her I’d help with finding information about it.” Chloe explained.

“So, in other words, this is the story of a lifetime for you and you wanted to out-scoop everyone.” Lex sighed. Why was he not surprised?

“That too!” She grinned.

Lex felt as if his head was going to burst. Gabe should be the one dealing with his daughter.

“Where is your father?” Lex asked again voicing the question that plagued his mind. Chloe actually had the decency to look uncomfortable. She began to fidget. Lana too looked slightly uncomfortable.

“He’s home.” Chloe said looking everywhere but at Lex.

“And why is he not here?” Lex went on. Chloe was definitely not making eye contact.

“W-Well…Uh…He doesn’t know…” Chloe went on. Lex closed his eyes and breathed deeply.

“Chloe, what does your father think you are doing right now?” Lex began again.

“Goodness, Lex. What’s with all the twenty questions? If I had known I was going to be grilled, I would have called Clark.” Chloe said grouchily.

“You ungrateful brat!” His voice rose a few notches, “I should leave you in here to rot!” Lex growled.

“No! Don’t do that. Please. Chloe!” Lana interrupted quickly.

“Fine! Leave! Go ahead! See if I care!” Chloe yelled back.

“Chloe! I am not going into that cell. Now stop being so damned stubborn!” Lana’s own soft voice was anything but.

“All I ask is that you to bail out my two friends. What is so DAMN difficult about this request? If it’s about the money, I will find a way to pay you back in full!” Chloe shouted.

He was going to strangle her. He was going to wrap his fingers around her lovely throat and squeeze.

Chloe closed her eyes. She took a deep breath in order to calm herself down.

“Please. I can’t leave them there.” She asked in a much softer tone.

Lex closed his blue-gray eyes and silently cursed. Fuck! Why did she have to use that tone?

There was a knock on the door and Lex’s lawyer came in.

“Well, they’re all set and free to go.” His lawyer said. Chloe looked at him one more time. Shit! I’m going to regret this.

“Carter, get the other ladies who were in the cell out too.” Lex sighed.

“Yes. Thank you! Thank you!” Chloe was so happy that she threw herself at him wrapping her arms around his neck in a tight hug.

Lex was stunned for a few minutes before he wrapped his own arms around her. The feel of Chloe pressed tightly against him felt so right. Chloe realizing what she had done quickly pulled herself away. Her face was red with embarrassment.

Lex was disappointed at the loss. He didn’t want to let her go.

My life is never going to be the same. Chloe was going to turn my orderly world upside down. As he thought this, Lex found he didn’t mind it so much.

A few minutes later, Chloe’s two friends walked in. Chloe gave them a huge smile as they looked the room over quickly, disgust marring their features when they took in Lana.

“See. I told you.” Chloe grinned. Both ladies shook there heads.

“She’s still here. I thought you would have chucked her in the nearest cab by now.” Roxy growled.

“You know there is no need to be rude. I have had a very rough evening.” Lana whined.

“Okay, princess, let’s get one thing straight. Anymore whining and I’m shoving my foot in your mouth.” Roxy threatened as she edged closer towards Lana.

“Uh…I really hate women who whine. They drive me nuts!” Sin added her two cents. Lana couldn’t believe she was getting reamed out by these two women.

“Ladies, please.” Lex said hoping to avert a brawl in the room. The way the two women and Lana were eyeing each other, Lex didn’t feel like getting caught in the crossfire and he knew Chloe was going to be no help. She’d probably help her two friends.

Both ladies of the night turned their attention to the only male in the room.

“Wow!” The bleached blonde called out as she looked Lex over with dark, calculating brown eyes.

“Lex, I’d like you to meet Roxy.” Chloe motioned to the bleached blonde, “And this is Sin” A shorter dyed red head with piercing blue eyes smiled seductively.

“So you’re Lex Luthor.” Roxy continued as she walked toward him and began to circle around. Lex noticed her friend Sin was raking him over with her blue eyes.

“Not bad. Not bad at all.” Roxy grinned wickedly.

“Yum-my!” Sin purred licking her full lips. Lex felt heat flood his face. He now knew what it was like to be a piece of meat on display.

“Shit, Chlo. He’s even more gorgeous than you said.” Roxy cooed. Chloe eyes widened and her face became scarlet. Fuck! I am SO going to KILL her.

She refused to meet Lex’s gaze and instead concentrated on glaring daggers at her friend.

Roxy, who had circled behind Lex, winked at Chloe. Lex, on the other hand, smirked in Chloe’s direction. So she thinks I’m gorgeous.

“Yes, Chlo. Talk about delish!” Sin said still maintaining her purr.

“Okay. Okay, you two. Leave him alone. His head’s big enough as it is…” The moment the words left her mouth, Chloe could have bitten her tongue.

FUCK! SHUT UP, CHLOE!

“Really…Is that right?” Roxy grinned as her eyes instantly traveled to the spot between Lex’s legs.

“Mmm…I’ll say.” Sin also let her gaze travel downward. By sheer will power, Lex forced himself not to cover himself. Where the hell was his lawyer?

“Roxy!” Chloe’s voice held a warning tone. She liked her friends very much but the way they were studying Lex made her very uncomfortable.

Roxy looked over at Sin and winked. “Okay. Okay. I know when a man’s taken.” Roxy grinned at Chloe direction. She is SO going to die! Roxy was causing trouble on purpose.

“Thank you very much, Mr. Luthor. I really appreciate you bailing us out.” Roxy said.

“Actually, it was Chloe’s request.” Lex countered.

“That’s my girl.” Sin grinned at her friend.

“Chlo, Eden’s Gate’s going to be hit.” Roxy said seriously.

“Eden’s Gate?” Lex asked. What the hell would Chloe want to know about that place?

“Really? Do you think you can get me in?” Excitement laced her voice.

“NO! You are not going to Eden’s Gate!” Lex yelled. She is insane if she thought he was going to let her visit a place like that.

“And how do you know about Eden’s Gate?” Chloe asked. Roxy and Sin smiled knowingly at each other.

“I-I’ve heard things. Nevermind. You’re not going.” Lex said.

“Uh-huh!” The doubt in her voice evident before she went on, “Don’t mind him. So do you think I can get in?”

Surprise shown on his features. She brushed him off. Him!

“Chlo, with your looks. You’ll have no problem getting in.” Roxy smiled.

“Great! Then it’s a plan.”

TBC...

Should I have let Chloe kick Lana butt? :blinkkiss:

Guys, WHO CARES if Lana is even in the same universe when Chlex interation like that is going on. she can go through the whole "No one's ever there for me and they treat me like like a doll. Its not like I'm helpless and need to be rescued from freaks and bad boyfriends every episode" rant and I would berely notice.

The Lark, Lavishly Happy

Still a great funny story! Wonderful update. I can't wait to read more. Chloe blowing off Lex after he bails her and her friends out of jail was priceless.

[Clannadlvr]

*dances happily*

I love this! This is such a humorous take on the Chlex relationship, especially with the obvious attraction between them getting in the way of Chloe's story. *grins*

And can I TELL YOU how sexy overprotective Lex is?? *sighs*

Oh, and it would be totally unfair to have Rox and Sin go after Lana. Lana would be dead in two seconds. It would almost take the fun out of it...almost.

Write more soon!

[sydsvaughn]

the mood I'm in right now, Chloe could pulverize Lana and I'd do a happy dance of joy.

Sorry, the violent tendencies are now under control.

Seriously though, LOVED this chapter. Sin and Roxy simply rock and I love the whole 'looking over Luthor' conversation.

Can't wait to see where this is going!!

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?

[Lady Aquitaine]

Hi All...Thank you so much for liking my story :wub: Well here's part 3...I hope you all enjoy....

**************

Part 3

After another heated debate it was decided that Chloe and Lana would go back to Lex’s apartment. Before Roxy and Sin went on their way, they pulled Chloe aside.

“Chlo, he’s a dream.” Roxy purred looking in Lex’s direction. Lex was staring intently at them wondering what they were up to. Roxy couldn’t help but wink at him. His eyebrows rose in answer.

“Girl, do not let that man out of your sight! Especially with that one around. I’ve seen her type before.” Sin murmured disgustedly as she looked in Lana’s direction.

“Thanks. I’ll try to keep your advice in mind.” Chloe laughed and Roxy rolled her eyes. Chloe could be very stubborn and very stupid when she wanted to be.

Maybe she could do something about that…Roxy suddenly smiled as thought occurred. “Okay Chlo. I promise we’ll talk later.” Roxy also went on to promise in a much louder voice to give Chloe a call during the week about Eden’s Gate.

“Rox, I’m right next to you! There’s no need to shout.” Chloe said cheekily. Roxy just glared at her. Then she rushed Sin into the awaiting cab.

“What gives?” Sin asked once they were settled.

“Well, I just had a wicked idea for Chloe and her divine Lex. Want to have some fun?” Roxy grinned. Sin grinned in response. She so loved it when Roxy was bad.

“I’m in.” Sin purred as the cab sped away.

Lex’s frown was very severe as his blue-gaze took in a laughing Chloe discussing her plans for Eden’s Gate.

There is no way in hell that he was going to let Chloe go to that place. Absolutely not! But remember, this is Chloe. Can you really stop her when she has her mind set? NO! He sighed.

Lex resigned himself to the fact that he just may end up have to paya visit to Eden’s Gate. Damn! What the hell is she getting him into?

The car ride to Lex’s apartment was silent. Lex, Chloe and Lana seemed to drift of into their own little worlds although Chloe wanted to wring Lana’s neck. Not only was Lana sitting in the passenger seat right next to Lex, but in Chloe’s opinion, Lana was being just a little too friendly.

Chloe’s eyes narrowed as she saw Lana’s brown eyes flutter in Lex’s direction. Since Lex was driving he didn’t catch Lana’s actions.

“Is there something wrong with your eyes?” Chloe said maliciously. Lana’s face turned red and she quickly looked away.

Tramp…What the hell happened to Clark? Chloe though evilly. Anger swelled within her, every time she caught Lana smile at Lex and Lex, the big jerk, did not help matters by returning the smile. Men! So not fair. Did they actually fall for that damsel in distress shit!

Yep! Perfect example: Clark!

They finally arrived at Lex’s apartment complex. Chloe, being the independent minded woman that she was, immediately opened her door and jumped out of the car. The atmosphere in the car was stifling and she desperately needed the fresh air. She took a deep breath and turned to see that Lana remained in her seat.

Oh ppplease!

Chloe’s blood pressure rose a few degrees when Lex, being the consummate gentleman that he was, opened the door for her and helped her out. Lana smiled prettily yet again at him.

UH…MEN!

Chloe disgustedly turned her back on them and stormed into the building. Lex watched her enter the building with an amused expression. Now what was her problem?

When Lex and Lana finally caught up with Chloe at the elevators, Lex was surprised at the glares that Chloe was giving him.

Women! Who in the hell can understand them?

The ride up the elevator was uncomfortable for Lex. Chloe was treating him like he’d committed the ultimate sin and Lana was uncomfortably too close for his taste.

I’ll be happy when I can drop these two crazy women at Gabe’s. Poor man! I definitely don’t envy him.

They entered Lex’s massive apartment and Lana immediately cooed in pleasure.

“Lex, this is wonderful!” Lana sighed. Chloe, on the other hand, snorted and mumbled something under her breath. Lex inhaled deeply as he counted to ten.

I am a very patient man. I will not strangle the little witch. I will…not strangle…the little witch…he thought to himself as he forced his hands to remain at his sides.

“Lex, I really need to take a shower. The stench from that jail cell was overwhelming.” Lana moaned.

Chloe rolled her eyes. “Whatever! You make it seem like you’ve been there for days. It was two hours, Lana. TWO HOURS! Must you be such a drama queen?” Chloe growled.

Lex held the grin that wanted to break out on his face with all his power.

“Must you be such a BITCH!” Lana shot back.

“You know…you’ve been throwing that word around too much lately. I hear it one more time and I’ll show you exactly what kind of a bitch I can be.” Chloe’s voice softened menacingly.

At the look on Lana’s face, Lex knew he had to head off yet another argument.

How do these two live together?

“Lana, I’ll show you to your room. It has its own private bathroom for your pleasure.” Lex said politely.

Lana gave Lex a huge grin as she followed Lex out of the room. She turned and smiled smugly in Chloe’s direction. Chloe grit her teeth. Patience. Must have patience. I will not let that prissy bitch get to me! Chloe growled.

Lex opened the door to the room Lana was staying in. Lana purred with delight.

“If you need anything, just let me know.” Lex said quickly. He wanted to get to Chloe quickly. He wouldn’t put it past the impossible minx if she was planning some sort of escape.

“Thank you so much Lex. I really do appreciate this.” Lana smiled at Lex. She had edged closer to him and gave him a chaste peck on the cheek. Lex’s was momentarily perplexed.

“Your welcome.” He said quickly closing the door. Well that was strange. Lex shook his head as he hurried to the main room where he left Chloe. Fear gripped him as he thought of what she might be doing right now.

Suddenly from out of nowhere he crashed into a small figure. Instinctively he reached out. His hands grabbed Chloe around the waist before she fell back.

“Ouch! Shit!” Chloe cursed as his strong hands wrapped around her waist. She stood still. Wow! They were warm. She found herself at eye level with his chest. She gazed at it in awe. Geez, he really was very broad. Look at those shoulders! Double wow!

Chloe eyes widened and her face grew warm when she realized she had been staring at his chest for a long while. She quickly looked up at him and was stunned by how close his face was to hers. She could see the silver flecks in his blue-gray eyes. “T-Thank you.” She swallowed nervously. Lex still had yet to let her go.

“Your welcome.” He said softly with his trademark smirk on his face. Chloe’s felt body heat intensified as she continued to gaze up at him.

Lex in the meantime was thoroughly enjoying have the blonde temptress in his arms again. Wonder what she tastes like? Lex’s eyes drifted towards her lips. They looked very soft and inviting. The urge to kiss her was overwhelming his senses. Should I?

Chloe’s body had suddenly flared into an inferno. What does he kiss like? Should I?

They stood still gazing at one another for a few moments when the spell was abruptly broken.

“Lex?” Lana’s voice rang out. Shit! Bitch! Chloe thought as she quickly pulled away from his arms. Her face was scarlet and she couldn’t meet his eyes. I could kill her!

Lex had never wanted to throttle someone more in his life at that moment, than he wanted to throttle Lana Lang. Damn! Would Chloe have let me kiss her? She looked like she wanted me to kiss her. Shit! I was so close.

Lex clamped his lips together and closed his eyes. He took a couple of deep breaths in order to calm himself down. When he felt reasonably calm, he opened his eyes only to find Chloe gone. Damn! He growled in frustration. Now where did she go?

“Lex?” Lana called from the hallway. Lex turned and stopped still. Lana was in the hallway wearing nothing but a towel. What in the hell is the matter with her? He asked himself.

“Yes, Lana?” He was proud to note that his voice sounded normal.

“You seem to be out of shampoo. Can I borrow some more?” Lana’s voice was whisper soft and Lex had to strain to hear her. Shampoo? Shampoo. Lex shook his head. This was going to be a very long day.

**************

Back in the main room, Chloe paced up and down. What had just happened? She was in Lex’s arms and it was heavenly. But that can’t be possible. No! I can’t feel things for this man. No! He is absolutely out of my league. Impossible!

She was so concentrated on her thoughts that she did not hear him enter the room. He leaned against the door frame and crossed his arms in front of him. She was so damn cute! He thought. He watched her frown and grimace. She seemed to be having an internal conversation. Chloe was a bundle of surprises to him and it was very refreshing to Lex.

“Chloe…” He said her name softly and she stopped in mid-stride. She turned to face him and simply gawked. Oh god, why did he look so damn good?

“Lana can be a handful.” She said weakly. Should she do anything? Should she pretend nothing happened? Damn! I wish Rox or Sin were here.

“Yes. But she’s manageable.” Lex forced himself to remain where he was. Chloe looked as if she was going to bolt at any minute.

“Oh! Um…Lex, I really want to thank you for everything you’ve done tonight. I know it can’t have been easy…” Chloe realized she was starting to ramble. Rambling. That’s all she needed.

Lex slowly moved closer. “I would do anything to keep you safe.” He said sincerely and her throat closed tightly. Wow! Did he just say that?

“Ah…Thank you.” Chloe couldn’t say anything else. How do you respond to a statement like that?

Lex came to stand before her. The soft light coming through the window shone on her beautiful face. He saw the exhaustion begin to set on her features.

“Why don’t you get some rest?” His voice was even softer than before. Chloe felt as if she were caught in some magic web. She couldn’t seem to move.

Lex’s hand softly traced her cheek. She felt as if she’d been burned. She visibly jumped at his touch. His hand fell to his side.

“Come on. I’ll show you to your room.” He turned quickly. Chloe had no alternative but to follow. Stupid! Stupid! The man touches you and you jump. Now he probably thinks you can’t stand his touch! IDIOT!

Lex finally stopped before a door and opened it. With a grin and an exaggerated flourish of his hand, he let Chloe enter first. Chloe stopped and stared in wonder. The room was beautiful. It was decorated in soft yellows and dark blues. Her favorite colors. It was as if the room was designed just for her.

“Lex, it’s beautiful!” Chloe grinned at him. Lex felt an answering grin on his face. He had wondered what she would say about this particular room. When he had it done, it was with her in mind. At the time, Lex thought it was wishful thinking. Now he was not so sure. Maybe it was fate...

“Thank you.” He cleared his throat. “The bathroom is over there. You’ll find plenty of towels and linens in the closet by the shower. I’ll find you something to wear, if that’s okay.” He shut the door before she could answer. Lex stood there for a moment.

What the hell was wrong with me? Was I just babbling? I’m Lex Luthor. I don’t babble. With a shake of his head in disgust, Lex left in search of finding clothes for Chloe.

He came back a few minutes later with a one of his t-shirts and boxers. Chloe was already in the shower and a vivid image of her wet and naked body rushed into his overheated brain. It was quickly followed by the image of him naked with her in the shower, pounding himself into her welcoming heat. He groaned at his heated thoughts. Shit! This was going to be a really long day.

************
Back in his room, Lex gratefully took off all his clothes except his boxers. He just need some sleep. He threw himself on his bed disgustedly. What the hell was he going to do? Chloe was occupying his mind almost exclusively.

I have to get her out of my head! But how in the hell can I do that when she haunts my dreams?

Lex closed his eyes as sleep finally claimed him. The last image on his mind was Chloe’s beautiful smiling face.

He dreamed of her. She smiled down at him and she slowly ran a finger across his lips. He felt his body harden. Her fingers traveled down his neck, towards his chest where she stroked him and squeezed.

Chloe. God, how he wanted her.

He felt her lips upon his chest and heard himself groan. Chloe. His hands sank into her hair. He wanted to kiss her. He heard her groan as his hands caressed her hair.

Chloe…Wait…Could it be?

Lex opened his sleepy eyes, smiling at the feel of the woman draped on top of him. Chloe.

When he looked deeply in her eyes, shock raced through his body. The eyes he was looking into were not green. They were brown.

“Lana?”

TBC...

I should have let Chloe kick her ass... :hammer:

[Clannadlvr]

NOOOOOOO!!! Get that SLUT off of Chloe's Lex!!!

*grr...*

Oh, and I love how he redid the room just for her. *sighs*

And they are both so tongue tied around each other.

Squueeeeee!!!

Please update soon. I love this!

[xadie]

:blush: Oh god,

I know I'm going to be the only one who feels this way, but how embarrassing for Lana when she realises that Lex is completely uninterested in her! Come on now, people, have some compassion, haven't we all made idiots of ourselves at some point? Am I the only one going 'ouch!'? But then you know I don't hate Lana as much as most, and Lana in this fic is particularly pain-in-the-assish, so whatever.

Chloe, top as ever. Loved this ch - more soon?

xadie xx

[Blaire023]

*rubs her eyes with her fists*

MY RETINA'S THEY BURN!!!!!!!

~B


PS. Yeah, but now Chloe can come in the room and kick her ass, and then lex would have to be her slave for all eternity for saving him from the pink menace. Which I absolutely love the nickname btw. ;)

[asharnanae]

*rubs her eyes with her fists*
MY RETINA'S THEY BURN!!!!!!!



:tease: damn Blana the mental pinkness of doom!

[autumngold]

I'm sorry, but Lana is such a bitch!! How dare she invite herself into Lex's room!! Now Chloe is never going to trust him!! Please let Lex have Lana killed!! No more Lex and Lana please!! :chlexsign3:

[hfce]

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! HOW COULD YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :puke: :puke: NO LEXANA PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! :crygreen:




Hope :crygreen:

[LarkLuthor]

Yea! New chapter! I love the Lex focus in this fic. Your "wicked" series is more Chloe oriented. Which deffinitely isn't a bad thing when well done, but Lex is a more complex fellow and thus more interesting.

The Ludicrous Lark

[ColumbiaBlue]

OH MY GOD!!! No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no!!!!!

OH MY GOD NO!!! Just... no!

*ahem*

That was SO wrong on SO many levels! I think I'm going to be sick.
:puke: :puke: :puke:

For the love of God and all things Chlex, please, fix it!

Loving the rest though, BTW!

~Manda :blinkkiss:

[Béatrice]

What? That bitch!!! How dare she?:mad:
She has to pay for harassing Chloe's Lex. What about throwing her out of the window?
Please update soon.

[LaLa]

:puke: :puke: ok, ok, i'm OK! I'm probably hallucinating, that's all because there is NO WAY that i could have read that sort of thing! I mean , common! lexana! the pink menace! the one and only blana in all her decadence and puky princess glory!!!

it's the big conspiracy against us, great, wonderful and VERY beautiful ladies that we are, the chlexers!

i want a spectacular blana kicking of her ass! NOW! :die: :evilpuke:

xoxo LaLa - and please, not Blana! urgh, i'm feeling squeashy again!- :evilpuke:

[Jenmar]

So Roxy and Sin have a plan, huh? <rubs hands together> This should get good.

Lana making a fool of herself by throwing herself at an uninterested Lex. I would love for this to set up oodles of misunderstandings and tension between Chloe and Lex so they have more than mutual attraction and hesitancy to work through before getting it on. Excellent part to a great story. Update the next part as soon as you&#39;re ready.

[Nicki]

PLEASE PLEASE LET CHLOE KICK LANA&#39;S ASS I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IE. Please update very very soon, I can&#39;t believe you left it there that is so mean :devil:

[MissMed03]

Lana needs a serious ass whippin&#39;&#33; Great update&#33;

[vardaquareien]

Ok right now I&#39;m hoping that Lex pulls the fairy princess up by the hair and then physically throws her out...then yells at her...Chloe hears the ruckus and comes running...seeing his Chloe after the terrifyingly horrific experience of waking up to Blana he rushes to her and imbraces her then drags her off to his room...they fuck all night.

Ah that&#39;s better...I just had to get rid of the horrific image you left us with&#33;&#33;&#33; Please update this soon coz the princess has got to die&#33;&#33;&#33; :die:

[Kit Merlot]

I can not WAIT for Lana to get a nice, solid beat down&#33;&#33; I love how Lex is all about the Chloe--THIS IS GREAT :biggrin:

Well done :chlexsign2:

[Lady Aquitaine]

Hi All...Thank you so much&#33; I have to tell you that I&#39;m having a ball with these two...So here is part 4 and I hope you enjoy... :biggrin:

****************

Part 4

“Lana&#33; What the –” Lex shouted quickly throwing Lana off him in shock. Lana fell backwards onto the floor and landed with a thud.

“Oww&#33;” she cried rubbing her sore bottom. Lex stood up quickly and jumped a few feet away keeping plenty of space between him and the brunette. His eyes roved over the scantily clad body and while he appreciated the view (A/N: People, remember he is a man&#33;) he was more worried about Chloe walking in on him. For some strange reason, he knew this would not sit well with the feisty blonde.

“Lana? What are you doing here?” Lex whispered softly. He had to get her out of his room. Chloe couldn’t find her here. Wait a minute…Is that fear? Am I afraid of the petite blonde?

Hell no&#33; I am Lex Luthor. President and CEO of LexCorp. I am not afraid a little minx. But when Lex thought about her legendary temper, he thought it better to be safe than sorry.

Quickly walking over,(Luthors did not run), to the other side of the bed he ripped off his bed sheet and tossed the sheet to Lana.

Lana caught the sheet, staring confusedly at Lex. Lex impatiently rolled his eyes. Figures he had to explain it step by step with her.

“Cover yourself up. Now&#33;” he said slowly. Lana slowly stood up and wrapped herself in the sheet.

“Lex? I don’t understand. I thought you wanted me.” Lana’s confused gaze took in his well toned body and she drool began to form in her mouth. Lex was really something to behold. Tall, well shaped, long legs. Lex looked like he could rock a woman’s world. And she definitely wanted her world to be rocked.

“What&#33; What in the world gave you that idea?” Lex shook his bald head trying to figure out if this was some kind of alternate world. It must be. Or maybe he’s still dreaming.

“In the car…you were giving me the eye. I thought you liked me.” Lana purred softly.

He could only stare at her in amazement. And here I thought Chloe was the crazy one.

“No, Lana.” He began as if he was talking to a child, “While I like you…I don’t LIKE you. Not in that way. Besides, Clark is my friend.” Lex began. He noted that her brown eyes turned hard with anger.

“What does this have to do with Clark?” Lana scowled.

“Look, I can’t talk about this while you’re dressed that way. Go put some clothes on. Go&#33; Go&#33;” Lex grabbed her by the arm and practically shoved her out the door.

“But – But…” Lana could only say before Lex shut the door in her face.

“Good God&#33; What is going on? Wait a minute…I just threw Lana out into the hallway with nothing on but my bed sheet. Fuck&#33; Chloe&#33;” He opened the door quickly to find Lana (Yep&#33;) still standing there. God, this girl was dense.

“Lana, your room is calling you.” Lex growled. Again he grabbed her by the arm and opened the door to her room. He shoved her in the room and slammed the door shut. Lex shut his eyes and ran his hands over his face. Could this day be any worse?

“What are you doing?” Chloe’s voice called out.

Shit&#33; It just got worse.

“Chloe…” Lex began only to have his voice drift off. This really did not look good.

“Lex, what are you doing in front of Lana’s door practically naked?” Chloe asked her voice remarkably calm.

“Chloe, it’s not what you think&#33;” Lex said.

“Oh really. So you’re a mind-reader now. All right, Lex Luthor, why don’t you enlighten me?” Chloe still went on in that calm voice. Lex couldn’t believe the situation he was in. It was as if the world decided to turn topsy turvy with one phone call.

“I – Well I was…I – Fuck it&#33; Lana came to my room to try and seduce me. I threw her out. When I opened the door she was still standing there. Still can’t believe how slow she is by the way. So I threw her in her room. And if you don’t believe me, well FINE&#33;” Lex threw up his hands and storm off to his room. He knew what it looked like. Chloe’s not an idiot. Hell, he would believe the worst.

Fuck&#33; Damn&#33;

Walking into his room, he ran a hand over his bald head in frustration. How in the hell did he get into this mess? How was he going to make Chloe see the truth?

“Okay.” She said from the behind him. He turned quickly at her voice. Chloe was leaning against the doorframe wearing his t-shirt and boxers. She looked adorable in his clothes.

“Okay?” He said. Was he hearing her correctly? What exactly did that mean?

“Yes. I believe you.” Chloe grinned at the confusion on Lex’s face. She almost laughed. He looked so lost.

“You believe me. Of course. You believe me.” Lex was still confused. What was she up to? This is Chloe. She just wouldn’t believe him so easily. His blue-gray eyes narrowed in suspicion.

“Yes, Lex. I believe you. And now, I’m going to go get some sleep. We’ll talk later. If I were you, I’d lock the door.” Chloe winked at him closing the door as she left.

Lex stood there uncertain of what to do. He felt as if he’d just been punched in the gut by this slip of a woman.

She believed him. What did she mean by that? She’s up to something. He could feel it. This was Chloe…She just wouldn’t let it go.

He paced around the room wondering if he should just simply confront her. She has to be up to something. Lex paced around for a few minutes when a loud crash reverberated around the room.

Oh shit&#33; He was right. Chloe was up to something&#33; He rushed out of his room and headed straight for Lana’s door were shouts were coming from. When he ran in, he saw the place was a complete mess. Lex found Chloe straddling Lana on the floor and pounding Lana’s head fiercely against it.

“Cheap tramp&#33; You stay away from Lex&#33;” Chloe yelled. Lana own yells were mixing with Chloe. He stood still for a moment. (A/N: Again, let me remind you, he is a man&#33;) The view was interesting to say the least.

Not now&#33;

He shook his head and immediately rushed over to Chloe and plucked her off of Lana.

Chloe struggled fiercely in Lex’s grip. “You walking pink nightmare&#33;” Chloe screeched. Lana meanwhile had managed to get up.

“Pink nightmare&#33; Well at least no one would ever call me a wallflower&#33;” Lana screamed.

“Wallflower&#33; Why you cheap hoochie&#33; I am so going to enjoy ripping out that dull, flat hair of yours out, strand by strand and then I’m going to shove it down your throat&#33;” Chloe shouted while trying very hard to get out of Lex’s grasp.

“Lex, you let me go right now. This little tramp is about to get the biggest ass whooping of her life&#33;” Chloe growled.

“Ha&#33; I’d like to see you try. Do you think your so-called ass whooping would be a little better than that horrible dye job you’ve got going?” Lana taunted.

“Dye job&#33;” Chloe gasped. “That’s it&#33; You and me&#33; Right now&#33;” Chloe shouted. Chloe’s fist were flailing so much that she mistakenly caught Lex in the eye. Searing pain caused him to Lex go of Chloe.

Oww&#33; Shit&#33; What in the hell&#33; That hurt&#33; I’m going to kill these two.

Chloe lunged for Lana again. She caught Lana’s head in a tight head lock.

“Dye job&#33;” Chloe roared as she yanked a handful of hair from Lana’s scalp.

Lex managed to get his pain under control. Again he caught Chloe in his arms, this time clamping his arms around hers. Chloe couldn’t move.

Seeing that Chloe was being held back by Lex, Lana lunged forward. Her fist caught Chloe straight in the jaw. The motion caused Lex to loosen his grip on Chloe and Chloe once again slipped out of his grasp. She threw herself at Lana and her small fist connected viciously with Lana’s eye. Her next fist hit Lana squarely on the jaw.

Lex tried to intervene again. This was ridiculous&#33; He stepped in between Chloe and Lana only to be caught in the crossfire. Chloe’s fist connected solidly with his gut. Lana foot connected with his shin.

“Oww&#33; Fuck&#33; ENOUGH&#33;” Lex bellowed in a furious rage. Both women stopped and stared in stunned silence. He stood there hopping on one foot with one eye beginning to swell. Lex turned a murderous look upon Chloe. Not intimidated for one second, Chloe glared right back.

“You will stay in your room. You take one step out of this room and I swear –I swear – I will tie you to this bed.” He yelled at Lana.

“You come with me&#33;” He grabbed Chloe by the arm and yanked her from the room slamming Lana’s door behind him.

“There’s no need to manhandle me, you big jerk&#33;” Chloe shouted as she tried to break Lex’s grip on her arm. He only tightened his grip. He had never been so angry in his life. He was going to strangle her. That or just put her over his knee and spank the living shit out of her.

Wait…that’s an interesting idea.

“Let go of me&#33;” Chloe screamed. Lex looked down at her and grinded his teeth. Chloe Sullivan was the only woman who could get him so riled up in so little time. And dammit, his eye was beginning to hurt like hell. He could feel it swelling.

Lex did not say a word as he stormed down the hall. He shoved Chloe into her room and slammed the door behind him.

“Lex Luthor, how dare you manhandle me?” Chloe attacked him at once. She was fuming. She was beating the pink menace to a pulp and he had the audacity to stop her.

“Enough&#33; I have had it&#33; Since three o’clock this morning, you have been nothing but one pain after the other.” He roared. These two women were going to drive him straight into a mental institution. And at this point, he’d probably welcome it gratefully. At least he would have some peace&#33; How in the hell does Gabe deal with this shit? The first thing he was going to do when he got back to Smallville was give Gabe Sullivan a big, fat raise and a twelve year old bottle of scotch. The man deserves it&#33;

“I’ve been a pain&#33; I do you a favor and this is the thanks I get&#33;” Chloe shouted back. Lex just looked at her not able to say a word. Count to ten, Lex. Remember, you&#39;re known for that legendary patience.

“Favor&#33; How is getting into a brawl with Lana doing me a favor?” Lex asked trying to control his rising temper. The little witch was putting the entire blame on him. He couldn’t believe her nerve.

“I was warning Lana to stay away from you. Or is it that you prefer that pink menace to stalk you?” Chloe growled.

“Believe it or not, I was handling things&#33;” Lex growled right back.

“Oh yeah&#33; You really were handling things&#33; What were you going to do? Hide in your room until she went away&#33;” Chloe taunted.

“You know I just can’t talk to you right now. I just can’t. Words are simply beyond me.” Lex shook his head. His eye was hurting, his head was pounding, his stomach and shin were killing him and here he was arguing with the most stubborn, infuriating woman he’s has ever met. What the hell was the matter with him?

“Words are beyond you&#33; Whatever&#33;” Chloe screeched. Lex eyes narrowed and did the only thing he could do in a situation like this.

He grabbed her by the shoulders and roughly pulled her to him.

“Chloe Sullivan, just shut up and kiss me&#33;” He said before his lips descended upon hers.

TBC....

I know...I had to go there but Lana was really getting on my nerves... ;)

[Jenmar]

I loved the full on catfight between Chloe and Lana, it was hilarious to read. And the soon to be Chloe/Lex smoochies...<sigh>. Excellent chapter.

[slayer44]

What is with Lex?&#33; He should have just stood there and enjoyed the sight of Chloe beating Lana to a pulp. But I&#39;m still happy, cuz that&#39;s what Lana deserves&#33;
OoOo, don&#39;t stop there, it&#39;s getting to the really good part. :)

[Clannadlvr]

NOooo&#33;&#33;&#33; You can&#39;t stop it there. Need update, Stat&#33;


He had never been so angry in his life. He was going to strangle her. That or just put her over his knee and spank the living shit out of her.

Wait…that’s an interesting idea.

I love that&#33; I think it&#39;s so great how you&#39;re playing out the whole girl on girl fantasy in Lex&#39;s head. Priceless&#33;&#33;

[Blaire023]

- or a very furious Chloe punches Lex in the face. :blush:

Please update soon.

[BlushingRose]

Ummmmmm....wow....

Can&#39;t say I don&#39;t enjoy reading about the Pink Princess being pummeled...what an idiot.

But if you keep Chloe in character, I&#39;m with <can&#39;t believe I&#39;m saying this&#33;> her punching him in the face and slamming/locking the door. Smut later...but not now. Plus, we&#39;ve still got she-who-needs-to-be-in-a-cab-headed-back-to-Smallville to deal with...

RA

P.S. Okay, I know some of you have had more than your fill of this, but it&#39;s SNOWING here&#33; :yay: :yay: :yay: All of a sudden, I&#39;m getting plot ideas for a Chlex short story based on the song "Winter Wonderland"...

[Lady Aquitaine]

Hi All...Sorry I&#39;m late with this part...Here is Part 5...Hope you enjoy...

****************

Part 5

Lex Luthor had experienced many sensations in his short lifetime but he’s never, ever experienced the incredible searing pain that has gripped him at this moment. And it is all due the little blonde witch before him. He couldn’t believe what she did. She kneed him. She actually kneed him right in the balls.

She’s crazy&#33; A lunatic&#33;

“I’m so sorry Lex.” Chloe softly said. Lex collapsed onto the floor groaning in pain. He had a gentle hold of his family jewels. Chloe was trying to help up.

“What is the matter with you? Are you trying to kill me?” Lex asked in a weak voice.

“It was a reflex action. I’m really sorry.” Chloe said in very squeaky voice. Lex ears picked up an underlying tone in her voice. He managed to look up at her and saw that her eyes were alight with an emotion. Laughter. She’s laughing at me.

I will kill her&#33;

“Does my pain amuse you?” Lex managed to finally get out. The pain was subsiding a bit.

“No.” She squeaked again turning her face away from him. Lex eyes narrowed as they took in her shaking shoulders. Dammit, she is laughing&#33;

“This is not a laughing matter&#33; I may not be able to have children.” He growled.

This time she couldn’t hold back. She collapsed next to Lex on the floor in a fit of hysterics. His face was clouded with anger. The little hellion&#33; He slowly managed to pull himself up off the floor.

“Lex – Please…” Chloe couldn’t finish as her laughter overtook her again. She couldn’t believe she had kneed Lex Luthor right in the balls. Roxy and Sin would be so proud of her before they’d start in and call her an idiot.

Lex couldn’t believe the turn of events. Up until she kneed him he was in heaven&#33; That is the word that ran through Lex’s mind when his lips slowly devoured Chloe’s. He felt as if he’d died and gone to heaven. He still remembered the heat created as their tongues collided with one another. He had to have more. He deepened the kiss to explore the recesses of her mouth. Her groan only served to inflame his senses. It was the most exhilarating kiss he has ever experienced. Then in a flash it all went away, only to be followed by the most excruciating pain.

“That’s it&#33; I have had enough of you two&#33; I am sending you both home to your father’s. I need to get away from you crazy women&#33;” Lex growled as her laughter began to subside.

“Lex you have to understand…when you grabbed me I went into auto mode…I mean what the hell is that matter with you? You just don’t grab women like that…” Chloe finished chuckling.

“Correct me if I wrong, but I seem to recall for a brief moment that you responded to the kiss. Forgive me, if I took it as a sign that you welcomed my advances.” His voice was dangerously low.

“Uh…well…I…” Chloe was at a loss for words. He was right. She had responded. And boy was that one hell of a kiss. But then surprise and fear overtook her. What the hell was she supposed to do?

“Never mind&#33; I don’t want to talk about it. I –“ He couldn’t finish. He needed to get away from the adorable blonde who was propped up on her elbows on the floor. Looking down at the angel before him, she looked anything but. Chloe looked more like she was hit by a Mack truck. Her jaw was swelling to three times its size, already it was turning a dark blackish-purple.

“Lex I’m really sorry. I—“ Chloe was cut off as Lex held up his hand to stop her flow of words. He turned around and stormed out of the room.

Oh my God. What in the world is the matter with me? The most sexiest man ever kisses me and I knee him. I kneed him…Chloe thought. She felt the rise of laughter once again swell within her. She collapsed again in a hysterical fit.

*********

“God Damn&#33; This town is fucking small.” A familiar voice exclaimed in a loud voice.

Chloe was sitting in the Beanery when she heard Roxy’s familiar voice. She looked up at her two friends. Sin, right behind Roxy, looked around in distaste.

This is what they call low key…Chloe thought. She smiled at the two ladies.

They looked totally out of place in the small café. Roxy was wearing short red strapless dress with black fish net stocking and matching red six inch heels. Her bleached blonde hair was left loose in wild disarray and her makeup was excessive as usual. Sin was dressed in much the same condition wearing a short black mini-skirt and a very, very low cut black tank top though her red hair was pulled back away from her face. She, too, was wearing black fish net stocking and matching black six-inch pumps. The two ladies of the night glared at the patrons as they walked by; though Roxy couldn’t resist blowing kisses to some of the more handsome male patrons she passed.

Chloe smile turned into a grin then grimaced in pain. Her jaw was still hurting.

“Fuck, Chlo&#33; What in the hell happened to you?” Roxy asked as she sat across from Chloe. Sin, who had sat beside Chloe, tenderly moved Chloe’s face to take a better look at the bruises.

“Shit, Chlo. That’s one hell of a bruise.” Sin whistled.

“It’s nothing. I’m glad you guys made it. I was beginning to wonder…” Chloe said shaking her head.

“Nothing&#33; I wouldn’t call that nothing. And don’t worry about us. Sin car may be the ugliest thing on four wheels but it’s dependable.” Roxy quipped winking at Sin. Sin just glared at her friend.

“So who’d you get in a scrap with. Don’t tell me it was Lex&#33; I want details. Leave nothing out&#33;” Roxy said warming to the subject.

“It’s nothing…really …” Chloe began but at Roxy’s scowl, she thought it best to speak. “I got into a fight with Lana. There are you happy.” Chloe sighed.

“Wait…You got into it with the princess. Fuck, Chlo&#33; Please, please, please, tell me she looks worse than you. If she doesn’t I swear I will have to beat you for letting yourself get ass whipped by that prissy bitch&#33;” Roxy begged. Chloe couldn’t help the grin that formed on her face.

“She’s worse. How does a black eye and a busted lip sound?” Chloe cooed.

“Hot damn&#33; I taught you well.” Roxy cheered. Sin and Roxy gave each other high fives while Chloe just rolled her eyes.

“Where is she? Can I take a look?” Roxy pleaded looking around the Beanery like a madwoman.

“Wrong café. Can we please get to the matter at hand?” Chloe asked. Roxy disappointment was very evident on her face.

“Well, at least tell me why you two got into it. It was her bitching. That’s it&#33; Finally got to you. Personally, I would have stuffed her down the nearest drain pipe a long time ago.” Roxy said matter-of-factly.

“Rox&#33; I’m sure you don’t want to know that.” Chloe said.

“Fuck yeah&#33;” Roxy replied with a grin.

“Okay…Fine…Lana tried to sneak into Lex’s room and you know…” Chloe’s voice trailed off as she was still not able to form the words. The thought of a practically naked Lex and that practically naked pink nightmare was enough to turn her stomach.

Roxy’s face was clouded with confusion for a split second before the true meaning of Chloe’s words hit her.

“What&#33; That SLUTTY BITCH&#33;” Roxy shouted at the top of her lungs. Everyone in the café turned their heads in their direction.

“I told you&#33; Didn’t I warn you about that bitch? I knew she was a SLUT the minute I laid eyes on her&#33;” Sin yelled.

“Could you two please keep your voices down? I live in this town, you know.” Chloe lowered her voice to a whisper.

“You want me to take care of her, Chlo. I’m so itching to get my hands on that prissy bitch. Say the word, Chlo. Just say the word and I’m SO there.” Roxy growled.

“It’s fine, Rox. I can deal with her. Can we please get to the subject at hand? Eden’s Gate…remember.” Chloe tried to change the subject quickly.

“Not so fast…What did Lex do?” Roxy asked curiously.

“Oh that…Lex threw her out&#33;” Chloe couldn’t help the grin that formed on her face.

“No way&#33;” Roxy and Sin said in unison. “Go Lex&#33;” Roxy cheered. They hi-five each other again.

“Okay, now that that is over with, can we get on to the business at hand?”

“Fine…Well, from what I’m heard, the owner of Eden’s Gate is not being to shy about the new drugs. Word has it, that he’s having them created special.” Roxy voice suddenly hardened.

“Okay. So what’s the owner name? I’ll see if I can find something on him.” Chloe pulling out a pad of paper and a pen from her purse didn’t question Roxy sources. Roxy natural ability to filter out accurate information astonished Chloe every time. She gave up trying to find out how Roxy did it.

“Apollo Jones.” Roxy answered. Chloe looked up with a smirk on her face.

“You’re kidding right. Apollo?” Chloe asked.

“I know. He has something of a god complex. The name of Apollo’s new drug is…get this…Apollo’s Liquid Gold. Can you believe him? I mean come on…he really does think too much of himself. And let me tell you he is not all that.” Roxy said in a snide voice.

“Liquid Gold, huh? Whatever&#33;” Chloe shook her head.

“Any way, word has it, he’s going to have some of this drug at his club tonight but it’s very pricey.” Roxy voice suddenly slowed a bit.

“Do you think I can get my hands on it? I want to see if I can get it examined.” Chloe had been writing down some notes so she missed the looks Roxy and Sin were giving each other.

“Nope&#33; I heard that Apollo’s a cheap bastard. And while he may want to fuck you, he definitely won’t hand the Gold over. At least not for free.” Sin said.

“Okay. So what are we going to do?” Chloe looked up this time.

“Well…I have this idea…you see Apollo may not sell it to you but he would definitely sell it to…” Roxy’s voice drifted off.

Chloe looked from Roxy to Sin when then didn’t go on. Realization suddenly alighted Chloe’s features as it dawned on her just where Roxy was going.

“NO&#33;” Chloe shouted. Patrons nearby turned again to stare again.

“Chloe, it’s the only way. Apollo would kill at the opportunity to sell to Lex Luthor.” Sin purred.

“NO&#33; I won’t do&#33; I can’t.” Chloe said quickly.

“What do you mean by you can’t? What happened?” Roxy asked suspiciously.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Chloe shrugged nonchalantly. Sin eyes narrowed.

“Chlo, what happened?” Roxy asked again.

“Damn&#33; Well, while I fought the pink nightmare, Lex plucked me off her.” Chloe began. Roxy noticed Chloe was mangling it a napkin she had in her hand.

“And well he was furious and pretty much dragged me back to my room.” Chloe continued slowly as the events were replaying in her mind.

“And?” Sin asked.

“Well, we argued…And…” Chloe paused still not believing what she had done.

“Enough with the fucking drama&#33; What?” Roxy growled impatiently.

“He kissed me.” Chloe said. Roxy was taken aback. She and Sin looked at each other in confusion.

“Is that all? God, Chlo, don’t do that. I thought you kneed him or something.” Roxy said in relief. Her relief was short lived at Chloe’s guilty look.

“What&#33; You kneed him&#33;” Roxy yelled.

“Are you crazy?” Sin shouted as well.

“Shhh&#33; What did you not understand about keeping you voices down?” Chloe asked sinking down in her seat a bit.

“Have you lost your mind? What the hell made you do something stupid like that?” Roxy screeched.

“I couldn’t help. He grabbed me and my instinct kicked in. It just happened.” Chloe answered.

“This is all your fault&#33;” Sin suddenly yelled at Roxy. Roxy glared right back but couldn’t disagree.

“Fuck&#33; I did teach you to damn well.” Roxy said petulantly.

“Can’t we do this without Lex?” Chloe asked hopefully. The glares she received from her friends answered her question.

“Chlo…I hate to say this…But you have got to swallow your pride and ask this man for help&#33;” Roxy said.

“No&#33; He’ll probably strangle me on sight. For crying out loud, he sent Lana and me home in separate cars right after the incident. That’s how furious he was. He said something about needing to get away from crazy women.” Chloe’s voice shook at the last part.

Roxy looked quickly in her direction. She noticed Chloe’s eyes were twinkling. Roxy felt laughter well up inside her but she tried to remain firm.

“Chloe Sullivan. This is not a laughing matter. You kneed…the poor…guy…” Roxy gave up. She couldn’t control the laughter. Sin joined in the laughter.

“You do know you’re going to have to fix this. We do need his help.” Sin said once she had managed to control herself a bit.

“Yeah, Chlo. You’ve got to fix this.” Roxy grinned.

Chloe groaned. She knew Roxy and Sin were right. She was just not looking forward to this meeting with Lex.

Fuck&#33; Fuck&#33; Fuck&#33;

TBC...

Please don&#39;t kill me...Smut is on the way... ;)

[ColumbiaBlue]

She actually kneed him right in the balls.

GAH&#33; :huh: She did WHAT?&#33; When Lex *fucking* Luthor kisses you, the appropriate reaction is NOT kneeing him in his special no-no place&#33;&#33;&#33; You rip off his clothes and ravage him right there&#33;

Chloe needs therapy... I mean, serious therapy.

Loved it&#33; :wub: Update soon&#33;

~Manda :blinkkiss:

[asharnanae]

:biggrin: heheheheheheheheh&#33;&#33; I think that must be the first time I have ever know Lex to get kneed in the balls&#33; fantastic surprize, oh I just couldn&#39;t help a laughing fit of my very own. More soon, please&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; :worship2:

[Clannadlvr]

Woo hoo&#33;

Ok, I have to disagree with Columbia here. I mean, Lex just ASSUMES that any woman he kisses is going to swoon into a puddle at his feet. Ok, he&#39;s right, but that&#39;s besides the point. Hmmm....Lex....lips....sigh...

*smacks self in head to end daydreams about sexy man*

ANYWAY...Chloe just gave him a helpful reminder, i.e.- knee in the family&#39;s jewels, that he just can&#39;t assume that every girl wants to be kissed by him. Right?

Ok, ok, ok, you&#39;re right. STUPID CHLOE&#33; NOW GET BACK TO THE MANSION AND GIVE THAT MAN SOME LOVIN&#39;&#33;&#33;&#33;

[MagnusXXN]

This is just.........she kicked him in the......... :crygreen:


"Sudders"


That was just wrong. Evil Chloe&#33; Evil&#33;

Write more soon.








): )

[Sab_Luthor]

wow that was such a great update
but man chloe can so STUPID sometimes i swear clark is a very bad influence to her
sin and rox on the contrary are very good i love the fact that they push chloe to go to lex
and chloe my girl you have to swallow your pride and beg lex to forgive you
update soon please

[BlushingRose]

Ummm...okay...four words come to mind here:

Slapping--yes. Racking--NO&#33;

And for her to laugh about it after she did it?&#33;?&#33;?&#33;?&#33; :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:

I&#39;m reminded of a rape self-defense course I took...the male teacher was explaining to us how to deal with an attacker from behind. The volunteer he was using for the demonstration looked at him and said, "I&#39;m not supposed to do that now, am I?" The instructor promptly backed up three feet, and we all laughed until we cried...

I know that Chloe is impulsive at times, but there are better ways to let someone know you don&#39;t want them to kiss you :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

AMEN to that&#33;&#33;&#33; She...and...how...? I&#39;m in shock that anyone would be able to resist sexy&#33;Lexy snogging them. I mean personally I&#39;d be a puddle&#33; :drool: I can&#39;t believe that she&#39;d laugh though while he was in so much agony&#33;&#33;&#33; Poor guy&#33; If I was a male I dare say I would have been wincing right throughout this chapter&#33;

Once again I luv Sin and Roxy&#33; I luv the whole idea of Chloe needing Lex&#39;s help for her story&#33; Is this part of Roxy&#39;s plan to get Chloe and Lex together?

[LarkLuthor]

I know most of the people around here are impatient, but to me smut scenes are much better after a long angsty "I love you, I hate you, you are absolutely nuts and drive me totally crazy&#33;" scenes. So, moral of the story, you&#39;re right on track. Keep it up.

The Loving Lark

[SexInStilettos]

love the update, and you are doing a wonderful job on developing roxy and sin, i wish i had friends like them...please update again

[hfce]

Chloe :nono: Chloe :nono: Chloe :rolleyes:



Hope ;)

[Val]

OMG I just loved this&#33; Chloe beating Blana up&#33; YAY&#33; :biggrin:
Bad Chloe for kneeing Lex though, poor guy&#33;

I want more&#33; Especially more kissing&#33; :biggrin:

[Blaire023]

LMFAO

You know, there are some good points made in the feedback. Plus, come on girls, it was a reflex. She&#39;s been caught off guard by a few too many meteor freaks, uh, hello, body heat suckage.

Maybe she had a flashback and just reacted on instinct. Course if Lex Luthor was kissing me...*eyes Sabby and her whip warily* ...yeah, I&#39;d knee him too. GO CHLOE&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

~B ;)

[autumngold]

Thank you for the promised smut&#33;&#33; Lex deserves something good after being kneed and punched&#33;&#33; Thanks for another great update&#33;&#33; :chlexsign4:

[Béatrice]

Hahahahahahaha. :lol: It was too good Chloe who kneed Lex. Poor Lex&#33;
I&#39;m sure she did this in order to find a better way to apologize (you know how evil she is&#33;&#33;). Lex will be very pleased to see Chloe begging him.
Please update soon&#33;&#33;&#33; :worship2:

[zenfro]

hehe. really funny.

please update soon. :biggrin:

[Cheryl]

I&#39;ve been internet deprived for a good week now, and just caught up with this fic, so lemme just say one thing: ROTFLMFAO&#33;&#33;&#33; :worship2:

She kneed him? She actually KNEED him?? Man, I don&#39;t know if it&#39;s a good or a bad thing&#33;&#33; Yeah, I know, she kneed Lex &#39;fuck-me&#39; Luthor, but at least he now knows not to just expect something of Chloe. You think he&#39;s ever been kneed before? This little incident will certainly be branded into his mind. ;)

Anyways, where&#39;s the update? Huh? C&#39;mon, where is it?? :wub:

[Lady Aquitaine]

Hi All...I&#39;m really sorry I am very late with this part. It&#39;s been crazy...So here is part 6...I really hope you like.

******************

Part 6

“Fuck, she was in that car for a long time; I thought she’d never leave.” Sin remarked curiously as her blue gaze took in Chloe’s little red beetle disappearing from her sight.

Both ladies of the night were sitting impatiently awaiting Sin’s car to properly warm up before driving back to Metropolis.

“I would’ve done the same. I mean, think about it. Only Chloe would knee Lex Luthor in the balls and then ask him for help. But, if I know Chloe, she’d probably demand that he help her.” Roxy grinned.

“You don’t think he’ll hurt her?” Sin asked as a frown formed on her face.

“Nah&#33; The man’s crazy about her. But…he will make her sweat a little. I can see him doing that. And to tell you the truth she deserves it for being such a fucking idiot.” Roxy chuckled.

“I know. When a man like Lex Luthor kisses you…you don’t knee him. That’s just not right. What was she thinking?” Sin shook her head in exasperation.

“I’m going to have to have a serious conversation with that girl and set her straight. When Lex Luthor kisses you, honey, you kiss him back and fuck him like there’s no tomorrow.” Roxy said in a serious tone prompting Sin to laugh. They both laughed for a few minutes before worry began to gnaw at Sin.

“I’m not sure about letting Chlo go to Eden’s without us.” Sin worried. Roxy grin left her face as she looked at her friend’s expression.

“You know we can’t be there. Apollo will probably kill us on sight. It’s got to be this way. Besides, Delilah will be there.” Roxy’s grin returned to her features at the last statement.

Sin grinned also. “Good. Should we have warned Chlo, about Delilah?”

“No…Delilah told me, she’d fill Chlo in when she arrived. She’s also promised to keep an eye out for Chlo and Lex.” Roxy chuckling became laughter.

“From the way you are laughing, I have a feeling Delilah said she’d help with Chlo.” Sin chuckled.

“Yep&#33; Delilah said she’d love to help. She’s a romantic a heart. But the damn woman wouldn’t tell me what she had in mind. It’s driving me crazy this not knowing. I can’t wait to find out.” Roxy quipped.

“Shit, I wish I could go. I really want to see what Delilah’s up to.” Sin sighed disappointedly.

“Don’t worry. Delilah promised to tell us everything.” Roxy said.

Sin’s car finally perked up and after a disgusted look from Roxy, Sin drove off though both women were wearing huge grins on there faces.

***********

Lex sat on his couch brooding in his study nursing a scotch. He was looking into the fire trying to squelch the restless feeling that had overcome him since returning to Smallville. His restlessness increased with the passing of time.

It’s quiet. Too quiet. Damn&#33; This is her fault&#33;

Lex arose disgustedly from his seat on the couch. He couldn’t believe it. He was bored. BORED&#33; After what he had been through with that blonde hellcat, Lex thought that all he needed was some peace. That was not the case. He was so fucking bored.

Shit&#33; I could kill her right now&#33;

Lex began to pace. He needed to see her. He realized that as he began to devise a way where he can drop in on the hellcat.

He could always say he was looking for Clark. Yes. That would be good. She’d totally believe that. An image of Chloe’s face staring at him with disbelief plastered on her lovely features had him gritting his teeth.

Damn&#33; That wouldn’t work.

Lex stopped his pacing as he heard a commotion coming from the front hall. What now? Who cares? It’s something.

A regal looking elderly butler entered the study with a harried expression on his face. Lex almost grinned. Lex had never seen his butler looked flustered.

“Yes, Danvers.” Lex remarked curiously.

“Mr. Luthor, there is a Ms. Sullivan asking to see you. Actually sir, it’s more like demanding to see you.” Danvers informed.

Chloe. Why does this not surprise me?

“Mr. Luthor, will you see her?” Danvers asked.

Lex paused for a moment. Elation was racing through his body. Chloe was here to see him. Why? What did she want?

“Mr. Luthor? Will you see Ms. Sullivan?” Danvers asked again.

“No. Tell her I’m very busy. Danvers, be sure to stress that I call her in the next week or two.” Lex said trying to hold back his amusement. Danvers’ face visibly paled.

“As you wish, sir.” Danvers turned and left Lex’s study. Lex almost clapped his hands in anticipation. He grinned as he imagined the shock on Chloe’s face.

The anticipated explosion made him laugh.

“What&#33; What do you mean HE’LL call me in the next week or two?” He heard Chloe shriek.

Because he was laughing so hard, he couldn’t hear Danvers’ reply.

“LEX LUTHOR&#33; YOU ARE GOING TO SEE ME THIS MINUTE OR I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN ROOM BY ROOM AND KILL YOU&#33;” Chloe screamed at the top of her lungs.

“Ms. Sullivan, this is most undignified&#33; Excuse me&#33; Come back here&#33;” Danvers’ voice rose as Lex heard footsteps.

Lex knew he had to rescue his butler. He squelched his laughter and managed to calm down a bit. He masked his face to show amused detachment.

Before he could take a step the door burst open and Chloe strode in. Anger was clearly written on her face. He stopped still at the sight of her. She was so beautiful when she was angry. Her face was flushed and her eyes were brilliant emeralds. Even the purple bruise on her jaw couldn’t detract from her loveliness.

“Is there a problem?” Lex asked pleased that his voice remained cool.

Chloe glared in his direction.

“Problem&#33; Yes there is – What the hell – I mean no&#33; No. There is no problem.” Chloe said very quickly, remembering why she was there. She calmed herself a bit. This was not going to be easy.

Lex’s blue-gray eyes immediately narrowed in suspicion. She was up to something. Chloe’s voice had started out in a growl then turned sugary sweet.

What is going on in that mind of hers? Lex thought instantly on guard.

“Lex, I need to speak with you. Alone&#33;” Chloe glared at Danvers who was stationed at her side.

“Fine.” He turned and sighed, although secretly he could barely contain his excitement. She has something brewing.

Chloe couldn’t say anything for a moment. How was she going to ask? Was he still angry? Of course, you fool. Men don’t take it very well when you knee them in their privates.

Lex watched the indecision on Chloe’s face and frowned. Chloe was usually straight to the point. That’s one of the reasons he was so attracted to her.

“Chloe? Is there a reason why you’re here?” Lex questioned.

“First off, I want to say how sorry I really am for…you know…” Chloe began. She still didn’t have a plan. Oh well, I guess I’ll play it by ear.

“You forgiven.” Lex said magnanimously. Chloe eyes narrowed. He didn’t have to say it that way.

Oooh&#33; If I didn’t need his help, I&#39;d be so out of here&#33;

“T-Thank you.” She managed to say through her teeth. If he wasn’t certain before that she was up to something, he now had his proof. Chloe definitely would have ripped into him for that last comment.

“Is there anything else? I’m very busy at the moment. I call you and we’ll schedule an appointment.” Lex went on. He loved baiting her. Lex realized that whatever she was up to, she had to be nice to him.

Let’s see how far I can go before she cracks…Lex thought evilly.

Chloe closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Breathe…Breathe…

“Y-Yes. I need your help.” She said after a moment.

“What kind of help? And for that matter, why should I help you?” Lex asked slowly edging closer.

“Well you see it’s about Eden’s Gate –“ Chloe began.

“NO&#33;” Lex cut her off. He should have known. He should have known that she would never let this go.

“Can I please speak? God, so rude&#33;” Chloe sarcastically said.

“Of course. But my answer is still NO&#33;” Lex growled.

Chloe looked like she was going to spit fire as her face turned a horrible shade of red.

“I need your help.” She went on trying to maintain control of her rising fury. “The club owner has a shipment of drugs…”

“Oh well, that’s different. Hell NO&#33;” Lex shouted. He be damned if he was going to let her get involved with drug dealers.

“Will please just let me finish, you sonofabitch?” Chloe yelled back.

“Fine&#33; Go ahead&#33; By all means, finish.” Lex’s tone turned magnanimous again and Chloe’s hand itched to smack him on his smug face.

“The drugs are very expensive and he won’t sell to me but ---“

“He will sell them to me. Is that right?” Lex finished her sentence. Chloe nodded her head airily.

“No&#33; End of discussion.” Lex voice held hint a finality. Chloe was about to argue when she suddenly threw her hands up.

“Okay&#33; Fine&#33; I don’t need you help. I will find a way to get Apollo to give me those drugs. So go to hell, Luthor&#33;” Chloe turned and was half way to the door when she felt his hand clamp on her arm and swing her around to face him. His face was clouded in fury.

“You are not going&#33; I won’t have you risking your life&#33;” Lex growled as his face was inches from hers.

“Yes, I am&#33; And you can’t stop me&#33;” Chloe shouted back. Lex knew she had a point. She was the most stubborn woman he had ever known. Short of tying her to his bed…the scintillating thought almost made him grin…Concentrate&#33;

He knew he was going to have to help her. She was not going there by herself. Suddenly an evil thought formed in his mind.

“Fine&#33; I will help you…” Lex’s voice drifted off as she gave him the most beautiful grin he’s ever received from her.

“But…You will owe me and after this, I expect to collect your payment in full.” His voice lowered huskily as he inched his face closer to hers.

“Bastard&#33; How dare you?” Chloe’s happiness was quickly washed away at his words.

“The choice is yours, Chloe. Take it or leave it&#33;” Lex went on ruthlessly.

Fuck&#33; How can he do this to me? Chloe silently yelled to herself. But she needed his help. Damn him&#33;

“Fine&#33; I will pay you in full when this is over.” She grit out. Lex smiled evilly.

“Good. And as a deposit…” His voice drifted off as he abruptly pulled her to him. His lips claimed hers in a brutal kiss. Chloe felt as if she were in a raging storm. His tongue tore inside of her mouth to mate with hers. It was a possessive kiss. Lex was staking his claim once and for all. Chloe was going to be his. And only his.

As abruptly as he pulled her to him, he let her go just as quickly. He looked at her bruised lips and felt his already hardened body harden even more.

She was his.

“I will pick you up in an hour. Do not keep me waiting.” With those words Lex turned and left the room.

I second that, I have this feeling things wont go too well at that club... But at least he is with her&#33; :biggrin:

[S.Ann Smith]

yay&#33; an update&#33;&#33; but I agree with Kris & Val, I don&#39;t trust Delilah.

love how Lex is toying with her, and am eagerly awaiting the "Payment" ;)

[Jenmar]

Ooooh, smoochies&#33; Good chapter. I loved Lex saying &#39;no&#39; without even listening to her and driving her nuts.

[MagnusXXN]

Lex is playing a dangerous game. Perposly baint a girl that kicked him in his......well you know, just the day before.

I swear, that bald billionair is a gluttion for punishment.

Write more soon&#33;&#33;&#33; :yay:








): )

[Lover]

“Okay&#33; Fine&#33; I don’t need you help. I will find a way to get Apollo to give me those drugs. So go to hell, Luthor&#33;” Chloe turned and was half way to the door when she felt his hand clamp on her arm and swing her around to face him. His face was clouded in fury.

“You are not going&#33; I won’t have you risking your life&#33;” Lex growled as his face was inches from hers.

“Yes, I am&#33; And you can’t stop me&#33;” Chloe shouted back. Lex knew she had a point. She was the most stubborn woman he had ever known. Short of tying her to his bed…the scintillating thought almost made him grin…Concentrate&#33;

He knew he was going to have to help her. She was not going there by herself. Suddenly an evil thought formed in his mind.

“Fine&#33; I will help you…” Lex’s voice drifted off as she gave him the most beautiful grin he’s ever received from her.
that was the best part&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; Looooooooooooooooooove it&#33;

Hi All...Here is the next installment...I hope you like...

******************

Part 7

They arrived at the club two and half hours later. Chloe for once did as she was told and was waiting for Lex on her porch wearing a big overcoat. After she jumped in the car, Chloe quickly filled him in on Apollo and his liquid gold. Lex was still not happy with her foolishly risking her neck. Damn stubborn woman&#33;

They pulled up to the entrance of the club. Eden’s Gate was a tall building with four floors. The outside was painted black. Nothing else adorned the building except for the neon yellow name which shone brilliantly against the background. The line to get in was over two blocks long. Chloe watched at Lex got out of the car and walked around to her passenger side. Her green eyes raked him up and down slowly. God, he looked good.

Sexy. Gorgeous. Suave. These words ran through her mind as she took in the way he was dressed. Black. He wore a pair of black Armani slacks, a black Armani shirt, and a short black leather jacket that reached his thighs. Chloe bit her lip and she found it hard to think. The car was becoming uncomfortably warm. Her insides were heating up and a suspicious dampness formed at the junction of her thighs.

He opened the passenger door and helped her out. She gratefully took off the big overcoat she wore and threw it in the car. When she looked at his face, Lex blue-gray eyes were bulging with anger. He couldn’t believe the outfit she wore. The short black clingy spaghetti strap dress clung to her in all the right places. Desire arose within him as he looked down to glimpse a tantalizing view of the tops of her breasts. Damn&#33; Is she crazy? The thing barely covered her ass. And her breasts…she’s really got some nice…Stop that&#33;

Chloe’s black thigh-high heeled boots and black choker completed her look. Her short blonde hair was spike at the ends and her make-up was not heavy. Lex noticed that she even managed to cover up her bruise.

“Ms. Sullivan, after this we are going to have a long discussion about your wardrobe&#33;” Lex growled in her ear as Lex threw his keys to the waiting valet.

“You seem to want to do a lot after this is over, Mr. Luthor.” Chloe taunted as she gave him a sunny smile. They walked to the entrance and everyone turned there way. Lex Luthor was known on sight. His bad boy days were legendary on the strip. The bouncer recognizing Lex immediately let him through. Lex took hold of Chloe’s hand and electricity shot up her arm. His hand was incredibly warm against hers. She wondered what they would feel like caressing her body.

Stop&#33; I am here on a mission…Mission&#33; Chloe thought.

As they entered the club they were immediately hit by the heat generated by the masses on the dance floor gyrating to the music. Eden’s Gate had a policy of anything goes as long as you didn’t get caught.

Her brows shot up as she looked around. It was huge. Each floor was pretty much packed with people as they looked down onto the dance floor. Chloe could see that each floor held special rooms. She wasn’t close enough to see in the rooms and her natural curiosity instantly perked up.

“Keep close.” Lex’s lips were right at her ear because of the music causing Chloe to shiver at the deep husky tone. Lex noticed the telling action and smiled.

“Cold?” He teased in her ear. Chloe just shook her head while trying to get unruly emotions under control.

“Lex Luthor&#33; You sexy beast&#33;” A husky sensual feminine voice called out suddenly. People around them turned to stare at Lex and Chloe. Chloe turned towards her left to gaze upon the most beautiful woman she had ever seen. Tall, ethereal with long midnight black hair that fell down her back and sparkling violet eyes. The woman had a body that most women would kill for with curves in all the right places. She smiled seductively at Lex before she threw herself in his arms, kissing him deeply.

Chloe’s mouth hung open in outrage. Oh my god&#33; The slut&#33;

Lex, stunned for a moment, was about to pull the woman away when she broke the kiss and whispered in his ear. “I’m a friend of Chloe’s, please play along.”

Lex looked over at Chloe’s outraged face and almost grinned. “Does she know that?” he whispered while pressing the woman tightly to him. The urge to goad Chloe was irresistible.

“She will be in a few minutes.” The woman chuckled pulling away slightly. She wound her arms around his neck and grinned.

“And I should trust you because…” Lex smirked seductively. He could feel Chloe’s seething rage roll over him in waves.

“Because Roxy and Sin are very good friends of mine. I’m Delilah by the way.” Delilah still smiling pulled away from Lex.

“Delilah, what a wonderful surprise&#33; I didn’t think I’d see you tonight.” Lex said aloud for the sake of those listening. As he turned towards Chloe his smirk turned into a grin at the furious look on her face.

“I thought you said you’ve never been here.” Chloe growled at him while glaring at Delilah with her hand on her hips.

“I haven’t. Delilah and I are old friends from my club days.” Lex shrugged.

Delilah laughed as she latched her arm onto Lex’s. “Come on. I’ve saved you the best seat in the house.” They walked off leaving Chloe to follow him.

She was going to kill him very slowly. Chloe imagined herself taking him by the throat and squeezing the very life out of him.

Maybe if I gut him open like a fish…Chloe thought.

They arrive at a booth well away from the dance floor. They were in the VIP section. The booths were luxurious. Soft, velvet and comfortable. They were all filled with sports personalities, actors and actresses, even a rock star or two.

Delilah sat down gracefully with Lex sitting right beside her. Chloe, still fuming, slid in next to Lex, though she made sure to keep her distance. She really wanted to strangle him.

Realizing what she was doing, Lex snaked an arm around her waist pulled her forcefully her against him.

“No. No. No.” He breathed against her ear as he shook his finger at her. She gasped at his treatment and only willpower restrained her from biting his finger off. Lex almost laughed at the fury on her face.

Hmm…I’m going to have some fun tonight…Lex thought mischievously.

With his lips still close to her ear, Lex licked her ear shell. Chloe jumped. The hand at her waist began to caress the small of her back. Her eyes closed of there own free will and Chloe could only feel the sensations Lex’s hand was causing. They traveled up and down her back very, very slowly.

A soft moan escaped her when she felt his hot breath on her ear again. “Chloe, tonight, I am in charge. Is that understood?” his lips traveled down to her neck.

“Uh...huh.” she groaned not really concentrating on Lex’s words. His lips were suckling on her neck, his teeth gently grazing her skin. An inferno raged within her.

“Now, be a good girl and listen to what Delilah has to say.” He whispered. The present came rushing back to Chloe. What did she just agree to? Did she just agree that he was in charge? Did he just say be a good girl? She glared daggers at Lex. He winked back.

“I am so going to kill you when THIS is over.” Chloe growled at him. Lex’s eyes turned dark with lust.

“Only after I collect on your debt&#33;” His said silkily. Chloe knew what he meant and the inferno within her raged out of control. An image of her and Lex in his bed appeared in her mind. Did she want that? God, yes&#33;

Delilah who had been watching them the whole time hid her grin. These two are so obviously into each other. Why did Rox ask her for help with these two?

Chloe managed to take her gaze away from Lex and looked over at the beautiful woman. She silently groaned. She was even lovelier up close. Perfect&#33; Just fucking perfect&#33;

“What?” Chloe asked petulantly causing Delilah to smile.

“Hi Chloe. It’s finally nice to meet you.” Delilah’s husky voice was even softer. Even though the music was covering most of their conversation, she didn’t want to take a chance at being overheard.

“Oh, I am so happy to meet you. Really I am&#33;” Chloe said sarcastically.

“Roxy and Sin rave about you all the time.” Delilah went on.

“What?” Chloe gasped in shock. She was not expecting this. “Why didn’t they tell me?” she went on angrily. A little warning would have been great.

“I told them I’d talk to you when you arrived. I’m here to help.” Delilah smiled. At the look of disbelief on Chloe’s face Delilah turned to Lex, “Lex, could you give me a few minutes with Chloe?” Delilah asked sweetly. Chloe eyes narrowed.

She maybe Roxy’s friend, but Chloe still didn’t like the way Delilah was looking at Lex.

“Sure. Would you like a drink?” His tone was huskier than Chloe had ever heard. She didn’t like it one bit.

“Yes. I’ll take a club soda.” Delilah purred. At least it sounded like purring to Chloe. I’m going to kill Roxy and Sin. This is the last thing I need.

Lex turned and looked at Chloe expectantly. “And you my sweet. What would you like?” He inched his face closer to hers. Her eyes drifted towards his sensual lips as they smirked at her. What would I like? Do I really have to answer that?

“I’ll have whatever you’re having.” She edged closer to him. His eyes darkened and his sensual smirk turned into a seductive smile.

“Are you certain you can handle what I want?” He whispered. They stared at each other deeply for a few seconds. The atmosphere between them was electrically charged. Chloe could only nod. Words seem to be a problem at that moment. They were stuck in her throat.

“Hmm…I guess we’ll have to see about that.” Lex whispered again as his lips hovered slightly above hers. She just gazed at his lips. Damn, she wanted to feel them again? He really is a good kisser. His lips are so soft and his tongue…

“Chloe…I have to get the drinks.” He smirked. Chloe immediately came out of her trance. She quickly scooted out of her seat not meeting his eyes. Shit&#33; Lex followed at a slower pace. She heard his laughter as he left to get the drinks.

Damn&#33; Damn&#33; Damn&#33;

When Chloe sat back down, Delilah took the opportunity to slide closer to her. “Now listen, because I really can’t talk long. Apollo will be here in a few minutes and I wanted you to have some background. Apollo is a cheap bastard. You already know that. But he’s also a suspicious prick. He’s going to be very suspicious about you two. Lex hasn’t been on the scene for a while and he’s going to wonder why Lex picked his club.” Delilah muttered quickly.

“Why would he be suspicious of us coming to this club?” Chloe asked.

“Lex has never stepped foot in this club before. And he’s probably wondering why. This is a good thing for us because he’s going to think Lex found out about the Gold.” Delilah looked around quickly. She saw Lex returning. Okay Rox. I promised.

“Now, if you’re going to play at being Lex’s girlfriend. You’re going to have to show Apollo. When he gets here he’s going to study you two intently. You’re going to have to put on a little performance just for him. Once Apollo’s satisfied, he’ll invite both of you to his private rooms.”

“O-Okay. Sorry. Wait…What do you mean by show him? Exactly what am I supposed to do?” Chloe asked slowly.

“Darling, do I have to explain my meaning of ‘show him’?” Delilah smiled at the red that seeped into Chloe’s face.

“Oh&#33;” was all Chloe could say.

“As soon as Apollo gets here, give him a little show and then I suggest a dance.” Delilah grinned.

Lex arrived with the drinks. He handed Delilah her drink. Then he sat down next to Chloe and set Chloe’s drink before her.

“And for you, my sweet, here is your Screaming Orgasm.” Lex said trying to keep a straight face. Chloe gazed at the drink then at Lex. Her green eyes shot sparks at Lex. It didn’t help that picture of her crying in pleasure was now cemented in her mind. Shit&#33; Fuck&#33;

Lex was enjoying himself immensely. She looked as if she was going to throttle him any minute.

“Why you – you –“ Chloe was about to launch into Lex when a deep voice interrupted them.

“Delilah&#33; There you are. I’ve been looking for all over you.” Apollo Jones had finally joined there little group. Now the fun was about to begin.

TBC...

What do you think? Was Lex in rare form or what? :eyebrows:

***************

Part 8

“Why, handsome, I’ve been here all the time.” Delilah purred as she patted the seat next to her. Apollo Jones smiled. His silver eyes and extraordinary white teeth shone brilliantly against his smooth ebony skin. As he sat down, Chloe noticed how tall and powerfully built he was.

Could this be a problem? No…She thought shaking her head. Lex could take him…I think…Of course he can…Oh God…Quit it Chloe…This is no time to lose your cool…Chloe silently berated herself.

Apollo settled himself next to Delilah and turned his attention upon Lex and Chloe. Lex noticed an intense gleam in Apollo’s eyes as they raked over Chloe’s form. A surge of jealous anger rose within Lex. His own blue-gray eyes hardened. Lex’s arm wrapped around Chloe’s waist and he pulled her towards him. It was a possessive action. A message for Apollo. Chloe belonged to him.

Chloe had noticed Apollo’s interest in her and for once did not fight Lex. In fact she felt better knowing that he was so close to her.

Apollo noticed Lex’s behavior and smiled slightly. Hmm…Interesting….

“So, Dee, aren’t you going to introduce me to your friends?” Apollo’s deep voice held a hint of amusement.

“Only if you promise to behave yourself.” Delilah teased. Chloe’s green gaze fell upon Delilah. Admiration for the beautiful woman flowed within Chloe. One would never think that Delilah wanted Apollo’s downfall as much as Chloe did.

“For you, anything.” Apollo grinned though his eyes were centered upon Chloe. Chloe felt Lex’s suppressed anger and she squirmed a little at the way Apollo was looking at her.

“Apollo Jones, this is an old friend of mine, Lex Luthor.” Delilah’s husky voice flowed smoothly.

“Mr. Luthor. Welcome to Eden’s Gate.” Apollo nodded in Lex’s direction. Lex only nodded in return. Though he hid his anger wonderfully, Lex was itching to rip Apollo’s throat out.

“And this is Lex’s girlfriend, Chloe Sullivan.” Delilah motioned in Chloe’s direction.

“Chloe. A beautiful name for a beautiful lady.” Apollo’s silver eyes gleamed even more. Chloe saw the mild lust within and unconsciously pressed herself tighter against Lex. This, she did not expect. Lex hand tightened around her waist.

“Nice club you have, Mr. Jones.” Lex was very proud that his voice remained calm.

“Call me Apollo. Thanks. It’s come a long way from the shithole it was when I first bought it.” Apollo murmured looking around. Eden’s was his pride and joy.

“Please call me Lex. I understand from Delilah, this is the place to see and be seen.” Lex chuckled as he too glanced around the crowded club.

“Yeah it is. Lots of celebs find there way here one way or the other. You could say they’ve followed the golden trail.” Apollo chuckled.

Chloe’s ears perked up at Apollo’s last statement. He wasn’t even trying to hide the fact that he dealt drugs. Arrogant bastard.

Because Apollo wasn’t looking in her direction, she allowed a scowl to grace her features. She was looking forward to seeing him behind bars.

A slight nudge at her foot brought her back to the present. She looked over a Delilah who was giving her the eye. It was time to put on her show. Suddenly Chloe nervousness increased tenfold.

Now&#33; It was time&#33; Shit&#33;

She looked down at her drink and took a fortifying gulp and almost choked. What in the hell was in her drink? Never mind…It helps.

She took another gulp. It didn’t burn quite as much this time and she started to actually feel a little better. When she looked down, she noticed that it was almost gone. Damn&#33; Okay&#33; Think&#33; What should I do?

An idea suddenly came to mind. Keeping her gaze on Apollo while he and Lex were making small talk, she trailed her fingers over the hand Lex had around her waist.

Lex stiffened again at the slight contact. He felt her fingers glided over his softly and slowly. It was the most heavenly feeling he ever felt.

Stop it Chloe…I need to think…Lex thought silently. He felt uncomfortably warm and found that his pants were suddenly tight around his hips.

Chloe had felt him stiffen and a small smile appeared on her face. Wow&#33; What power&#33; Hmm…Time for some payback&#33;

Chloe’s fingers drifted from his hand and slowly found there way to his thigh. She let them travel up and down the muscular thigh while still paying absolute attention to Apollo. Lex found it hard to breathe. What was the little witch up to? Her touch was beginning to drive him crazy.

He placed his other hand upon hers to stop her movements. He needed to keep alert. Chloe’s actions were definitely not helping.

Chloe slipped her hand from his and let her fingers travel again. This time they found his hard length. She lightly touched his hardness and Lex controlled the urge to jump.

Dammit, what is she doing? Lex thought as his teeth clamped together in order to control his rising desire. His body heat arose quickly. He felt a strange dampness at the back of his neck. He couldn’t believe he was sweating. The little witch&#33; He was going to strangle her.

Lex removed Chloe’s hand from his hardness and shook his head sternly at her. Apollo caught the action and curiously wondered what was going on.

Meanwhile, Delilah was biting her lip to keep from laughing. She could clearly see the battle Lex was fighting to keep from losing his composure.

Chloe just grinned at him innocently. He frowned in return. What the hell was she up to?

“Mmm…Baby&#33;” she groaned as her lips pressed against his ear but still audible for Apollo and Delilah to hear.

Lex’s eyes widened at her. What in the world was wrong with her?

Delilah quickly took a drink of her club soda in order to hide the laugh. Go Chloe&#33; Roxy and Sin would be so proud.

“Baby…I want to have some fun&#33;” Chloe’s tone was seductive. Lex wanted to throttle her. The look in his eyes told her to stop whatever she was doing. Chloe bit her lips then ran her tongue over them. The fire within Lex raged out of control. He found himself squirming a bit.

“Chloe…” His swallowed visibly. He could deal with an angry Chloe. He could deal with a Chloe who was ready to rip his insides apart. He wasn’t so certain about a teasing, seductive Chloe. Damn, those lips are calling to me…he thought as his gaze focused on her slightly swollen lips.

Chloe licked her lips again very slowly. Lex traced the slow movement of her tongue. He body was painfully alive. Shit&#33;

“Lex…Let’s have some fun&#33;” she repeated as she took hold of his free hand and slowly studied his long, strong fingers. These fingers can produce the most wonderful sensations…Chloe thought before an evil grin formed on her face.

Taking his middle finger, Chloe slowly rubbed it back and forth. Up and down.

He was dying. There were simply no other words for what Chloe was doing to him. He was slowly going up in flames.

She lifted his finger up toward her eyes to get a better look. Should I? Hmm…To quote her good friend, Roxy: Fuck Yeah&#33;

She took the length of his finger in her mouth and slowly sucked on it. She slid it out of her mouth were her tongue drew slow circles around the tip of his finger. She repeated the process again.

Lex was so hard he was in pain. Fuck&#33; I’m going to kill her…Control… Lex…Control…You’re the one in charge tonight…Remember…

She repeated the process again only this time she took two of his fingers in her mouth and sucked hard. His mouth dropped open.

“Lex…I want to have some fun&#33; Right now&#33;” Chloe purred mimicking Delilah’s voice. Delilah could barely contain her laughter. Poor Lex didn’t stand a chance.

“Don’t you want to play with me?” Chloe teased him. Lex’s eyes were dark with desire and he burned to answer that question.

Relief flooded him when Chloe mercifully let go of his fingers. It was short lived. He felt her lips on his neck. The noises she was making at the back of her throat almost made him burst in his pants.

Shit…Chloe…

She pulled away from him with a feral smile on her face. “Because I…want to play…with you.” She purred again moving suddenly. Chloe straddled him and pressed herself up against his hard length and rubbed herself up and down. Lex was completely lost.

Placing her hands on his bald head she slowly rubbed them back and fourth. She slid them down further and began to rub his neck. Lex closed his eyes.

For the love of God, Chloe, stop…he thought weakly…

The sensations were too much for him. He was doomed.

“So what do you think? Are you up for the game? Do you think you can take me on?” She grinned. Her hands traveled back up to his neck and pulled his head towards her cleavage. Lex felt her wonderfully soft globes press against the sides of his face and he groaned in pleasure. He hands snaked there way up her thighs, cupping and squeezing her ass cheeks. Chloe groaned.

“Cause I definitely think, I can take all of you.” Chloe pulled him back and put her hands on the sides of his face. She ran her fingers across his lips. Her lips hovering over his mouth.

“And later on, I believe I’m going to need a much stronger Orgasm. How about you? Would you like a Blow Job? I heard they’re delicious.” Chloe taunted.

Lex could only stare at the blonde on his lap. His pants were unbearably tight.

“But first, how ‘bout a dance?” She un-straddled his hips and slowly stood before him. Lex couldn’t seem to move as he looked at the beauty before him. She crooked her finger at him then turned and walked towards the dance floor. She found a spot just outside of the dance floor. Turning in his direction again, Chloe smiled wickedly and began to move.

Wow&#33; I didn’t know she could move like that&#33;...Lex silently said.

Chloe began to move to the music. At first she gyrated her body slowly to follow the beat. When the beat picked up so did her movements. She moved up and down. Far down. Lex’s eyes followed her hips. They moved back and forth, up and down teasingly. He was entranced. She could rival any of harem dancer.

Chloe danced for one man alone. Lex. She loved the way he was looking at her. It made her feel alive for the first time. As she continued to dance, she suddenly felt a hand at her waist.

“Hey there darlin’, need some company.” A masculine voice whispered in her ear. She turned to see that a strange man had appeared behind her and was pressing himself against her. Chloe was about to pull away, when the strange man was suddenly pulled off her. Lex had grabbed the guy by his shirt and threw him across the dance floor. The man crashed into several dancers. Lex walked over to him and the glare Lex gave him was deadly.

“Touch her again and I’ll kill you&#33;” Lex growled. The man immediately recognizing Lex wanted no trouble with the bald billionaire. He quickly stood up and left. Lex turned to look at Chloe’s shocked form standing at the spot he left her. Stalking over to her, he took her by the waist and pressed her to him. His lips claimed hers in a searing kiss. His tongue dove deeply in her mouth to mate with hers. It was a deep, possessive kiss. Lex was making a statement with that kiss. Chloe was his. Only his.

Chloe was lost. What started out as payback turned into a desperate need.
She wanted him. She wanted him so much it hurt. Her body was in flames. The jewel at the apex of her thighs throbbed painfully. She wanted and needed him to put out the fire within her. When the need for air claimed them, they pulled slightly apart. In unison, they both moved to the music. Chloe was lost in the private world she and Lex had created.

They continued to dance like that for a long time.

Apollo who had watched that display in awe turned towards Delilah. He grinned.

“You’ve been holding out on me.” He said. Delilah’s delicate eyebrows shot up.

“How so?” She asked teasingly. She knew what he was talking about.

“I didn’t know you knew Lex Luthor.” Apollo said gazing once again at the couple on the dance floor. His eyes focused mainly on the blonde in Lex’s arms. Chloe Sullivan. Lex was a lucky man and Apollo suddenly wanted to get to know her better.

“You never asked. When I ran into him and told him about this place he sounded intrigued.” Delilah shrugged her delicate shoulders. She saw were his eyes were focusing and frowned slightly. Perhaps Chloe was too good at her performance.

“Interesting. When they’re done with their dance, have them come up to my rooms. There a party in full swing and I believe Lex might like it and more…” Apollo’s voice drifted off. He was still staring in Chloe’s directions.

I wonder what it would be like to have her all over me like that…Apollo grinned at the thought.

He turned towards Delilah and kissed her cheek. “Remember. My rooms after their dance.” And with that he stood up and left. Delilah felt a feeling of dread set in. She didn’t like the way he grinned at Chloe.

“Damn&#33; What’s he up to?” Delilah muttered. She shook her head. Don’t worry about that now. Need to keep a clear head and a careful eye on Chloe…she thought.

Her attention turned back to the couple on the dance floor. They certainly put on a good show. She grinned suddenly. I can’t wait to tell Rox and Sin about there not so innocent friend. Chloe could teach them a lesson or two.

When the couple finally made there way back to the table, Delilah looked up at them, her grin widening.

“Showtime&#33;”

TBC...

[Shay]

http://users.pandora.be/eforum/emoticons4u/crazy/685.gif That was hot. I half expected Chlex to do each other on the dance floor.

I can&#39;t wait for the next part.

Shay

[Kit Merlot]

That was an excellent chapter :biggrin: I am also worried about Apollo--he better not even THINK about hurting Chloe. Lex will kill him&#33; Delilah seems cool--I &#39;m glad she&#39;s going to look out for Chloe--makes up for kissing Lex in front of her&#33;

Well here is the next installment...I hope you enjoy...

Part 9

Lex and Chloe followed Delilah towards Apollo’s private rooms. As they entered the elevators, Delilah had briefed Chloe and Lex on her plan.

“Let him make the first move. Remember, you two no nothing about the Gold.” Delilah said quickly.

“How do you know, he’ll bring up the Gold?” Chloe asked.

“Trust me. Apollo will bring it up. He’s an arrogant son-of-a-bitch. The man loves to brag about himself.” Delilah said in disgust. She looked at Chloe speculatively, “Ah…Chloe…About these rooms…” Delilah was suddenly unsure of how to proceed.

Understanding dawned on Lex as he gazed at Delilah. He hadn’t thought about what they might see once they entered the rooms. How is Chloe going to react?

“What about them?” Chloe said a little impatiently. All she wanted to do was get into those rooms, get the Gold and get the hell of there. Fear was beginning to set in and her nerves were on edge. It was fine to talk about getting the drugs, but it was quite another to actually do it.

Fuck&#33; I forced Lex into this. What the hell was I thinking? An image of her article in the Daily Planet flashed through her mind. Shit.

“Well, they’re a bit…” Delilah was flustered for the first time in her life. How does one explain the depravity of Apollo’s rooms? She had been in them a few times and they were enough to make her sick to her stomach.

“What Delilah is attempting to say…is you might see things that may shock you. If his club policy is anything goes, imagine what his private rooms will be like. Are you sure you’re up for it?” Lex asked looking down into Chloe’s green orbs. He hated the thought of Chloe going anywhere near that asshole or these rooms.

“I’ll be fine. I promise.” She found it hard to tear her gaze away from his. She smiled reassuringly as she palmed his cheek with her hand. Lex softly touched her lips with his fingers.

“I will always protect you. You know that, don’t you?” Lex asked. He wanted to be certain Chloe understood he would never let anything happen to her.

Chloe was touched and comforted by the sincerity of his words even if the independent side of her was crying out that she could take care of herself.

Delilah felt her throat constrict. She, too, was oddly touched. Loathed as she was to interrupt, she cleared her throat loudly.

“Okay, then. I’ll bring you to Apollo and you will have an hour in these rooms. That is all you are getting. After an hour, I’ll come get you and you two leave as quickly as you can. I’ll have a diversion setup that will keep Apollo’s busy. Are we all set?” Delilah asked quietly as the elevator doors opened. Chloe and Lex nodded. They finally arrived at the rooms at last. Chloe couldn’t believe they were actually there. She took a series of deep breaths to calm her nerves. She looked up at Lex and marveled at the fact that he could remain so cool and composed. But then this was Lex. She was just happy that he was by her side. She didn’t want to think what would have happened if she had come alone.

I definitely can’t tell him this last thought. I’ll never hear the end of it…

Chloe would have been surprised to learn that Lex was anything but cool and composed. Long ago he learned to mask his emotions, but his insides were churning at the thought of Chloe being in danger. Taking a hold of her hand, he gently squeezed it.

Delilah gave them one last long look before opening he door. As they passed by her, Delilah and Lex shared a meaningful look. In Delilah’s violet eyes, Lex read ‘Keep her safe…’ He nodded to acknowledge that he got the message. The rooms were large, spacious and luxuriously furnished. The first thing Chloe noticed was the large glass wall before them. She could clearly see to the other side of the club. If you look down, the people who resembled ants danced the night away to the music.

Delilah caught the direction of Chloe’s stare. “Apollo has this god complex. When he looks down onto the dance floor, it makes him feel like he’s omnipotent. Or at least that’s what he said. Personally, I think he saw one to many Star Trek: Next Gen episodes.” Delilah rolled her eyes as she quietly informed them of Apollo’s quirks.

“Welcome to Apollo’s Den of Iniquity. Whatever&#33;” Delilah sighed. Chloe felt like she walked into a roman orgy. The place was filled to the brim with people. Drugs of all sorts were being taken. She noticed people were snorting, smoking or injecting. Empty bottles of Rum, Vodka, Whiskey and Tequila littered the floors and any space available. Her face turned a deep shade of red when she saw men and women or women and women involved in a series of sexual play on the many huge couches sporadically placed around the rooms. Dance music from the dance floor played loudly in the rooms and people were drunkenly dancing to it. Lex became uncomfortable at the scene he was witnessing. A feeling of suppressed violence permeated the air. He pulled Chloe closer to him. Damn&#33; If anything happened, how was he supposed to keep her safe?

As they followed Delilah, Chloe stared around her in wonder. Wow&#33; I didn’t know anyone could bend like that…Chloe thought amazed.

Lex studied the room intently. From what he could see, there seem to be only one way out. But with a man like Apollo, Lex had the feeling that another exit existed. He just needed to find it. Just in case.

Delilah was a few feet ahead of them working her way through the crowd. Lex’s hold on Chloe’s hand tightened as he followed. Suddenly a figure launched itself at Lex forcing him to break his hold on Chloe. The force of the launch propelled him towards the wall. Lex looked down at the figure and saw that it was a small redhead with intense brown eyes.

“Mmm…Aren’t you delicious.” The redhead purred. She ran her fingertip across Lex’s lips.

Chloe, a few feet away, was about to protest when she felt a hand clamp down on her wrist. She was pulled backwards, the force turning her around. A brunette smiled evilly at her.

“Where are you going darling? The party’s back here.” The brunette cooed as she pulled Chloe along. Chloe started to fight back when she felt another hand clamp on her other wrist. A blonde gripped her wrist in a surprisingly strong hold.

“Let go of me&#33;” Chloe yelled but the blaring music suffocated her protests. The two women dragged Chloe along until they came to a door. The brunette opened the door and both women pushed Chloe through. Chloe was couldn’t believe what just happened. She heard the door lock behind her. Shit&#33; Turning around quickly, she banged on the door.

“Open the fucking door&#33; Let me out right now&#33; Lex&#33;” Chloe screamed at the top of her lungs.

“Ms. Sullivan…Did you enjoy your dance?” A familiar voice called from behind her. Shit&#33; The fear she had been holding back spread like wildfire throughout her body. Apollo. Fuck&#33;

***********
Lex was having a hell of time prying the redhead off him. As he pried he quickly looked around to make certain Chloe was all right. She wasn’t in sight and a rising fear began to grip him. Chloe&#33;

“I wonder what you taste like.” The redhead attempted to kiss Lex but he pulled her roughly away from him.

“Ooooh&#33; I love it rough&#33; Come on baby, show me what you got&#33;” The redhead laughed seductively as she tried once again to get close to him.

Delilah stepped in between them. “He’s off limits, Angie.” Delilah purred menacingly.

“Delilah, darling&#33; He’s really delish&#33; How about we share?” Angie brown eyes had a steely gleam to them.

“I said he’s off limits. Go away&#33;” Delilah’s voice hardened. Lex looked around frantically for Chloe. She was gone.

“Delilah, Chloe’s gone&#33;” Lex said trying to look through the sea of people. Delilah was in shock until her eyes fell upon Angie’s smug face. Apollo&#33;

“Where is she?” Delilah growled as she stepped closer to Angie. Lex heard Delilah’s question and looked down. Delilah was now face to face with Angie.

“Sorry, doll. Have no clue what you’re talking about.” Angie cooed. She started to turn away when Delilah gripped her by the arm.

“Where is Chloe, you cheap slut?” Delilah’s hold on Angie tightened painfully.

“Fuck off&#33;” Angie growled as she tried to break free of Delilah’s grip. Delilah’s hand suddenly flew through the air and connected painfully with Angie’s cheek. Angie stumbled backwards.

“You are going to tell me where Chloe is right now&#33; Or I will make sure your face is not so pretty in the morning&#33;” Delilah shouted.

“You bitch&#33;” Angie yelled as she held her cheek. The other side of her face suddenly burst in pain as Delilah slapped her again.

“Tell me&#33;” Delilah yelled. Angie pointed towards the other direction. “They took her to the storeroom. Apollo’s there.” Lex who had been waiting by impatiently suddenly felt as if someone had punched him in the gut. The wind seemed to be knocked out of him. Chloe&#33; Lex bolted as fast as he could with Delilah on his heels.

****************

Chloe looked about her frantically. With the exception of the black light the room was dark. Apollo’s silver eyes, enhanced by the black light, gleamed evilly at her.

Shit&#33; I have to get out of here&#33;

Chloe tried the door once again. It wouldn’t budge. She turned around and noted that Apollo was walking towards her. She moved away quickly.

“What do you want? Are you crazy?” Chloe yelled. Apollo slowly stalked her. His grin matched the evil in his eyes.

“I asked if you enjoyed your dance. I wondered if you’ll dance for me like that.” Apollo’s deep voice was husky with emotion. Chloe didn’t want to think what that emotion was.

Okay…Girl…Think&#33;

“I enjoyed it very well but I only dance for one man and you’re definitely not him&#33;” Chloe retorted. She kept backing up. Her thighs suddenly connected with the edge of a table. Fuck&#33;

“We’ll see about that.” Apollo laughed softly. He held up a syringe with golden liquid inside. “How about a little fun? I can make you fly higher than you’ve ever been.”

“Sorry. Not interested.” Chloe tried to move left but found that way was blocked by a large cabinet. “You know, Lex will be here any minute.”

“I think he might be a little busy with Angie. He’s a Luthor. One bitch is as good as another to them. So you have me all to yourself.” Apollo said huskily.

“Why in the hell would I want you, when I have a man like Lex?” Chloe snorted. The evil smile Apollo wore left his face. Chloe felt his hand hit her cheek. The blow stunned her.

“No fucking bitch is going to talk to me like that&#33;” Apollo growled. He slapped her again and the force of the blow propelled her backwards. Chloe fell back towards the table. The blow stunned her already stunned senses. She tried to move but found that she couldn’t. She felt his hands roam all over her body, touching her breasts, thighs… Repulsion threatened to overwhelm her. She almost lost it when she felt him press himself against her.

Have to concentrate&#33; Don’t lose it&#33;

He yanked her arm severely and she felt the prick of the needle.

NO&#33;

The liquid poured into her and for a moment nothing happened. She thought it must not have worked when she suddenly felt herself floating higher and higher than she’s ever been.

Lex…she tried to yell but it came out as a whisper.

*************

Delilah, knowing where the storeroom was, cut in front of Lex. He threw people out of his way as he frantically followed. Chloe&#33; He had to get to Chloe&#33; They arrived at the door. Delilah found it locked. Lex pulled her aside and kicked the door open.

Rushing into the darkened room, he found Apollo bent over an unmoving Chloe. Rage raced through him like lightning. A roar of outrage escaped him as he leapt at Apollo. Both men went crashing to the floor. Apollo caught of guard, was not capable of fighting Lex. Lex’s anger seemed to give him the strength of ten men. He hit Apollo in the face once, twice, three times and kept pummeling at Apollo until Delilah’s voice finally penetrated his angry mind.

“Lex, we have to get her some help. Please&#33;” Delilah cried. Realizing she was right he let go of Apollo and stood up quickly. Ignoring the oozing blood on his hands, he ran towards Chloe, gently taking her in his arms. When he saw the bruises on her face, the need to kill Apollo resurfaced.

No&#33; Chloe needs him. He’ll deal with Apollo later.

“Lex, I’ll guide you to the back way. Once your downstairs, wait for me. I’ll bring your car around.” Delilah said as she turned and left the room. Lex followed at a quick pace. They stepped out of the room to the curious stares of the jaded people in the room. He saw a bloodlust in their eyes. He needed to get out of there.

Delilah showed him to the backstairs and he descended quickly.

“Hold on, honey. We’re going to get you help. Chloe, please hold on&#33;” Lex whispered in her ear. Chloe didn’t move an inch. He arrived downstairs and only had to wait a minute or two when he heard the familiar roar of his car. Delilah raced up to them and stopped abruptly. Lex gently placed Chloe in the car and then climbed in after her. He tenderly settled Chloe on his lap.

“The hospital’s about twenty-five minutes away.” Lex said.

“No&#33; No hospitals&#33;” Delilah held up her hand when Lex was about to protest. “They will think that she did this to herself and notify the police. Is there someone you can call?”

Lex nodded. “I have a phone in the compartment right next to your arm. Can you dial a number for me?”

“We’ll take her to Roxy’s place. Roxy is only ten minutes away.” Delilah said as she found the phone and dialed the number he gave her. Lex was not about to argue with her.

Delilah held up the phone to Lex’s ear. “Toby. Lex. I need your help. Can you come to…” he paused for a moment as Delilah gave him the address. “126 High Street in the south side. Don’t argue with me. I promise to make it extremely worth your while. Thanks. You have ten minutes.” With that Lex nodded to Delilah who hung up.

Delilah put the car in motion and sped off. His hold on the limp woman in his arms tightened and he prayed with all his heart that they weren’t too late.

[sydsvaughn]

So glad that we got Lex beating on Apollo. What a sick man that club owner is, but thank goodness Lex was there to rescue Chloe. I&#39;m sure it&#39;s not going to be easy, especially once Lex realizes the drugs involved.

Did I mention this story only gets more intriguing and good as it goes? Please say another update is soon on the way. Please?? :)

[Jenmar]

Great story&#33; I know Toby can make her better. I hope Lex, Delilah, Roxy and Sin all team up to take out Apollo, he deserves it&#33;

[SinnerSaint]

You must update soon please &#33;&#33;&#33; Pretty please with sugar and whipped cream and even caramel topping &#33; :yay:

[Clannadlvr]

Oh my gosh&#33; Poor Chloe...and if she&#39;s been given liquid gold...this could be VERY bad.

The element I really liked about this chapter was the difference between Lex and Chloe as they walked through the private room. While Chloe was amazed with what she saw, the reporter in her taking in everything around her, Lex realized their danger. He had been "on the scene enough" in his wild days not to be fazed by the debauchery- he understands the danger beneath.

Really cool&#33;

[Val]

Poor Chloe&#33; Oh that bastard Apollo is SO dead&#33;
C&#39;mon, update this soon I need to know that Chloe will be ok&#33;

[autumngold]

**************

Part 10 - A

They arrived at Roxy’s apartment house. Delilah parked the car haphazardly. She leapt out of the car quickly and sped around to help Lex with Chloe. Gently she held Chloe in her arms as Lex quickly jumped out. He scooped up Chloe and they ran to the front steps. She found the key to the apartment house quickly and let them in.

“Third floor&#33;” Delilah yelled as she held the door for Lex. Lex rushed up the stairs. When he arrived at the door, he impatiently used his foot to bang on it. Delilah reached his side in seconds and she also banged on the door with her hand.

“Rox&#33; Open up&#33; Emergency&#33;” Delilah yelled. Roxy who had stayed in due to stress and worry over what was happening at Eden’s, opened the door quickly upon recognizing Delilah’s voice. Delilah raced in with Lex following close behind her.

“What the hell happened? Chlo&#33;” Roxy yelled.

“I’ll tell you all about it later. Where can we put her?” Delilah answered. Roxy motioned for Lex to follow her.

“Put her in my room.” Roxy as she led them into her bedroom. Lex followed with Delilah and Sin in tow. He gently laid Chloe on the bed.

“Delilah, what the hell happened? You were supposed to watch out for her&#33;” Sin growled.

“Roxy, I have a doctor coming here. Can you let him in? His name is Toby.” Lex said cutting off Sin’s protests. Lex took a closer look at Chloe now that she was settled. What he saw made his rage rise to the point where he couldn’t breathe properly. Her face was covered in purple and black bruises. Her top lip was split from the force of the blow Apollo had given her. He tenderly brushed back her hair. His rage mounted as frustration settled within him.

Damn&#33; This was not supposed to happen.

Roxy, who had left the room when Lex informed her about Toby, was back almost immediately. A short, balding, portly man followed her in. He nodded towards Lex but his gaze immediately went to Chloe.

“Goodness, Lex&#33; What happened?” Toby asked as he moved immediately to Chloe’s side.

“Toby, she was fed a drug forcefully. The drug’s still in the experimental stages so its properties are still unknown.” Lex responded as he was sat by Chloe’s side.

“Does this drug have a name?” Toby asked, as he proceeded to examine the young blonde woman before him.

“Liquid Gold.” Lex responded as his hand softly touched Chloe’s cheek. Toby looked up quickly.

“The Gold&#33; I know this drug. You are not the first person to call me on account of it. Highly dangerous.” Toby informed Lex. He quickly opened his medical bag and some supplies. He laid a syringe and some medicine on the night stand by the bed.

“What does this drug do?” Lex asked fear gnawing away at him.

“It’s a form of freefalling. The user flies higher and higher for about forty-five minutes to an hour. Then suddenly crashes at an alarming rate. Almost like jumping out of a plane. I was told it was the ultimate rush. The problem with this drug is for users who are not accustomed to the freefalling…the so-called rush causes to heart to pump almost triple its normal rate and leads to cardiac arrest.” Toby quickly filled the syringe.

“What I am giving this young woman is a medicine to counter the effect somewhat. It’s a form of sedative that works specifically on calming down the heart rate. But it’s still not a hundred percent. We’ll have to keep a close eye on her. How long ago was this drug given?” Toby asked.

Delilah checked the time. Thirty minutes have passed already.

“Thirty minutes.” She informed Toby. Toby nodded.

“Toby, before you give her anything, could you draw a vial of blood from her? The drug is in her system and I want it analyzed in order to come up with an antidote.” Lex explained when Toby’s eyebrows shot up. Toby quickly agreed with Lex’s assessment. He found that he was receiving more and more calls for overdoses on Liquid Gold. He drew her blood then filled the syringe with the sedative and injected it into her.

“Lex, I suggest you get ready. She is going to need you when she crashes. Talk her through as she’s crashing. Keep your voice calm and steady.” Toby advised.

Roxy, Sin and Delilah looked at each as fear, worry and anger reflected in their gazes. The thirty minute wait was unbearable. Chloe’s body began to jerk uncontrollably when she started to crash. Her breath caught as pain twisted throughout her system. Lex held her down and began to whisper softly in her ear. Toby held Chloe’s legs down. She tried to cry out in pain but found that she couldn’t speak.

“Shhh…I’m here, sweetheart. It’ll be okay. Come back to me…” Lex whispered.

After what seemed like hours…Chloe’s body slowly began to relax. Her breathing settled and the pain abated somewhat.

“That’s it. Come back to me. We still have plenty of arguing to do. Come back to me my feisty hellcat. Please.” He whispered.

“That’s good, Lex. Her vitals are beginning to stabilize. In a few minutes her heart rate should have slowed down enough.” Toby softly informed.

But Lex was beyond hearing. Once he started talking he couldn’t seem to stop. Chloe couldn’t leave him. She couldn’t. He wouldn’t allow that. After fifteen minutes, Chloe’s body had stabilized a bit. Toby examined her one more time. Satisfied with the results, he started to pack his things.

“Keep an eye on her for the next five hours. If anything happens, call me immediately. She should be fine afterwards. She’ll be a little sore but for the most part she’ll make a full recovery in a day or so.” Toby said.

Roxy, overcome with emotion, threw her arms around Toby. Sin followed suit. Toby shocked by the action didn’t know what to do and just stood still.

“Thanks, doc&#33;” Roxy’s voice was hoarse with emotion. Toby simply nodded.

“Rox, Sin, why don’t you let the man go.” Delilah said softly though she too wanted nothing more than to hug the man who saved her friend’s life.

“Sorry about that.” Roxy said trying to get her emotions under control. “Here I’ll show you the way out.”

Sin followed Roxy out and Delilah took the seat Toby had just vacated. Her violet eyes filled with tears as they gazed down at Chloe’s sleeping form. Lex lay down next to Chloe and held her body close to him. She was going to be fine. Chloe was a fighter. He had never felt so relieved in all his life.

Roxy and Sin came back in with three lounge chairs. As they silently set up the chairs, Roxy and Sin made themselves comfortable. Delilah soon joined them. Now they all waited for Chloe to wake up.

*****************

Lex heard the soft groan first. He had dozed off for a few hours but her groan instantly awakened him.

“Chloe?” he whispered. She groaned again. Happiness swelled within him.

“Ladies, wake up&#33; Chloe’s coming to.” He said hoarsely. One by one, Roxy, Sin and Delilah woke up. They all closed in around Chloe.

Her eyes opened slowly. The first thing she saw was shining blue-gray eyes filled suspiciously with moisture. Chloe smiled slightly. That can’t be. It must be her imagination. She tried to speak but Lex still her with his hand.

“No&#33; Talk later. Rest now.” Lex said. Chloe slowly nodded her head. She looked around her and saw her three friends grinning down at her. Roxy’s grin widened as tears in her eyes threatened to fall.

“Hey, kiddo. Glad you’re okay but Lex is right&#33; You rest up now.” Roxy said. Chloe smiled at them. She closed her eyes and quickly fell back to sleep.

“Excuse me.” Roxy voice was hoarse. Overcome with emotion, she ran out of the room. Sin and Delilah followed her out.

Lex softly kissed the woman in his arms. As she sleepily settled herself closer to him, he smiled down at her and felt his eyes closing. Within minutes he was instantly asleep.

Outside the room, Roxy was wiping the tears from her eyes. Anger, rage and the need for revenge burned within her. Sin and Delilah said nothing as they sat with her.

“Delilah…Tell me everything that happened. I want to know how this drug ended up in her system. Then we’ll see about some payback&#33;” Roxy said in a steely voice.

Delilah nodded and proceeded to tell her of the night’s events

Lex awoke to the sounds of muffled noises. Instinctively he reached for Chloe but found the space empty. Opening his eyes, he gazed around the room. She was gone. Chloe&#33; He his body stiffened but Lex forced himself to relax.

Calm down&#33; She’s fine…He thought.

He rose from the bed and followed the muffled sound. As he crossed the apartment, he noted that Delilah, Roxy and Sin were gone. The muffled noises grew louder and he came to a door slightly ajar. Opening the door softly, he found Chloe sitting on the bathroom floor. Wrapped in a towel, she was soaking wet and had stuffed a small towel into her mouth. Her shoulders were shaking uncontrollably as she gave into the hysteria.

“Chloe…” Lex said softly trying not to startle her. She looked up quickly and Lex saw the redness and puffiness of her eyes were. How long had she been sitting there? His heart instinctively went out to her.

“Lex…What are you doing here?” Chloe quickly wiped at her eyes trying hard to compose herself but failed miserably. Lex sat by her side and softly caressed her bruised face.

“I-I tried t-to w-wash his t-touch away. But I can’t.” She moaned as she gave in to another fit. Lex noticed that patches of her skin were rubbed raw and he gathered her in his arms. He sat in silence simply holding her while Chloe gave in the hysteria within her. His teeth clenched and his eyes burned with fury. Apollo would pay. Lex was going to make certain of that. Ideas formed in his mind of how Apollo would pay.

Chloe, feeling much better, stopped crying after a while and found that she had drenched Lex’s shirt with her tears.

“Sorry. I—“ Chloe began but Lex cut her off with his fingers.

“Don’t. I don’t care about the shirt. I care about you.” He told her. Chloe nodded not certain how to respond to that. Apollo’s image of him pressing himself against her flashed through her mind. She closed her eyes trying to erase it but the image was too strong. She opened her green eyes quickly. She needed to counteract Apollo’s touch with something else. Another man’s touch. Lex’s touch. The only touch she ever wanted.

“Lex, please, touch me. I need you to erase Apollo’s touch from my mind. I need you to burn it off me. Please.” Chloe began softly placing her hand on his cheek.

“Chloe, you’re not --- “ Lex began but was cut off by her lips. Chloe kissed him softly.

“Please, Lex. I don’t want to feel him again. I want to feel you. Please…Don’t make me beg.” Chloe groaned against his lips. Lex was at a loss of what to do. She wasn’t ready. He couldn’t. But she felt heavenly in his arms.

“Please…” She said one more time. Lex knew he was doomed. He could never deny her. He tenderly returned her kiss, careful not hurt the sides of her face or the split lip.

Her tongue was soft and velvety. She kissed him with wild abandon and he reveled in it. His body burned with suppressed desire but he knew he had to go slow with her. He let her proceed at her pace. The small press of her hands on his chest drove his senses wild. She pulled away and gazed deeply into his eyes.

“I want to make love to you. Are you up for it?” She teased with a small smile. Lex felt an answering smile tug at his lips. Chloe always did have to be in control.

“Mmm…Now that is an interesting question…I’m not so sure…” He teased back and she let out a little laugh. The sound went straight to his heart. Chloe was going to be fine.

“Perhaps, I can help you make up your mind.” she arose suddenly. Smiling seductively at him, she walked out of the bathroom. Lex arched an eyebrow, knowing he had no choice but to follow. He followed her to the bedroom they shared. Closing the door behind him, he leaned against it and crossed his arms. He watched as she stood in the center of the room. She crooked her head to the side and smiled again. Then she let the towel drop to the floor. Lex’s intake of breath was audible.

Chloe was perfect. Aside from the bruises on her body, she was simply perfect. Petite with curves in all the right places. She was made for loving. He stood there; eyes taking there fill of her beautifully naked body. Chloe face showed a little doubt when finally he moved. He walked slowly towards and gently took her in his arms. He kissed her tenderly and heard a groan in the back of her throat. His arms tightened about her. He felt her stiffen a bit and loosened his hold. He was suddenly unsure if this was right. Perhaps they should wait until she was healed.

“Don’t you dare stop&#33;” Chloe growled against his lips. She pressed her supple body against his and all hesitation on Lex’s part was gone. He felt her slowly unbutton his shirt. She parted it open and gazed at his chest.

“Mmm…Wow&#33; Even better than I imagined.” Chloe sighed. Lex body stiffened in response. She imagined him like that.

She kissed his chest softly. Her lips were like feathery touches against his skin. He closed his eyes as the sensation threatened to overwhelm him. He felt her take of his shirt. Her small hands then moved to his pants. She unzipped them and let them fall. She gazed at him. Lex in his boxers was incredible. Better than she imagined.

He kicked away the pants and stood there while she gazed at him in much the same way he gazed at her. Chloe softly touched the noticeable bulge in his boxers. Lex gasped as the feeling.

Shit&#33; Slow&#33; You have to go slow…he thought to himself. She was not helping matters, especially when she stroked him through the material. He put his hand over her hand to stop the motion.

“Chloe…” He said hoarsely. She looked up and grinned. Lex saw the mischievousness in her eyes. She cupped him fully and he groaned in response. He was slowly losing the battle.

“I was right…You do have a big head…” Chloe teased. Lex looked down at her and glared. She really was not helping. He placed his hands on her shoulders and turned her around. His eyes took in the graceful arch of her back as he ran his fingers up and down. Her shiver made him smile. Lowering his head, he pressed kisses on her shoulders. His tongue slid across her shoulders then down her back. He knelt behind her and let his tongue slid back and forth at the small of her back.

“Shit&#33; Lex&#33;” Chloe moaned. Still on his knees, he turned her around. She stood proudly before him. His mouth descended on one creamy globe. He sucked it into his mouth.

“Lex&#33;” Chloe screamed in pleasure. He tasted, nibbled, sucked and stroked. Chloe had never felt such extreme pleasure. Lex’s lips trailed heatedly from one nipple to the other where he proceeded to worship the neglected globe. Her hands caressed his bald head and neck as she pressed herself closer to him.

His lips moved away from her breasts. He smiled at her small protests but they died as his lips trailed downward. They trailed past her stomach, down to the very core of her. Chloe’s golden curls glistened with moisture and ran his fingers softly through the curls. She cried out as his touch. His fingers found the center of her, heated and throbbing. He caressed her with his fingers. She almost lost her balance. The pleasure was so intense. He nuzzled his nose against her curls and inhaled deeply. Her scent drove him wild. His lips soon followed. He pushed his tongue through her wet curls and kissed her throbbing jewel. He held her still when her legs would have given way. He gently took her jewel between his teeth and sucked her. He kept on the erotic torture. Teasing and licking. Rubbing and nuzzling. The blissful pleasure that had been building within finally broke through and her body stiffened in response.

Her climax was incredible. She floated higher and higher. She threw her head back and shouted her pleasure as her body convulsed. Lex pulled back to watch her and he marveled at the beautiful sight before him. He slowly stood and held her when she began her descent. Her legs gave way and he scooped her up in his arms. He carried her over to the bed. He settled himself next to her and took her in his arms.

“All I have to say is…Wow&#33;” Chloe laughed. He leaned down and kissed her once again. Chloe was again lost to the sensations only Lex created. She felt his hardness against her and tugged on his boxers.

“I really need to take these off.” She pushed him onto his back. With a smile Chloe removed the offending boxers. Her gaze ran up and down his body. He was beautiful. From his strong, broad chest to rock hard thighs, he was simply beautiful. She moved to settle herself on top his chest and placed soft kisses on him. Her hand moved to hold his hardness and she wanted nothing more than to taste him. She began to move towards his hardness, but Lex stopped her.

“Another time.” He said simply and pointed to her bruised lip. She frowned down at him and he winked.

“Don’t worry. There will be many, many more times.” He grinned. She allowed a smile to show on her face.

“My, that’s very cocky of you. What makes you think I’ll want to have sex with you again? I mean you could prove adequate.” Chloe taunted.

“You little – “ Lex growled as he quickly flipped her over. He settled himself between her legs. Chloe laughed. “I’ll show you adequate.” He said. He guided himself to her entrance. She felt him enter and moaned her pleasure. Slowly he entered her until he felt her barrier. With a deep breath, he quickly pushed his way through and closed his eyes in delight as her tight passage closed around him. Chloe stiffened in pain but soon the pain gave way to the wonderful feeling of Lex inside of her. He held himself still until she became accustomed to him. Chloe started to move against him and Lex found himself joining her. They moved in unison. He thrust in and out of her.

“Oh god&#33;” Chloe groaned into his ear. The sensation of being inside was wonderful. He went faster and faster. Harder and harder he thrust inside her.

“Chloe&#33;” He groaned. Her passage was so tight and he increased his speed. When he felt himself beginning to come, his hand traveled towards her jewel where he stroked her until her own release was upon her. They both climaxed at the same time. Her passage ruthlessly closed around him and his body shuddered with delight. He collapsed on top of her. Movement was not an option at the moment.

After a few minutes, Chloe laughed softly. “Mmm…I’ll grade that as a B-. Good effort&#33;” she teased.

“I guess I’m going to have to better next time.” He growled in her ear as he felt himself stir again.

“Yes. You are most definitely going to have to do better. But remember, there’s always extra credit.” She nipped at his ear.

And he showed her again that Luthors always achieved perfect scores.

*****************

Part 11

Roxy, Sin and Delilah returned to the apartment a few hours later. Dawn was just beginning to break and they were all satisfied with their night’s work. They had discussed a plan of attack against Apollo but found they needed more information. And what better place to find out information than on the streets of Metropolis. Sin and Delilah threw their weary bodies on the couch. They sighed in pleasure as they took of there heels.

“By this time tomorrow, Apollo’s name won’t mean shit.” Sin remarked with a small smile on her face. Her blue eyes gleamed with a vicious light.

“I’m still shocked about the information we found out.” Roxy, who was sitting a chair opposite the two, said softly as she began to massage her weary foot.

“We’ll tell Lex everything tomorrow. We’re going to need his help for the second part.” Delilah closed her eyes and settled back on the couch.

“Do you think he’ll give us a problem?” Sin asked as she too settled back.

“No. He’s just as pissed off as we are. He really cares about Chlo, which reminds me, I’m going to check on her. I’ll be right back.” Roxy said as she walked quietly towards her room. A minute later she was back with a huge grin on her face.

Sin and Delilah opened their eyes and looked at her questioningly. “Chlo’s okay?” Sin asked.

“Yep. I think she’s okay. But, if you ask me, I think it was the action she got last night that probably helped her a lot more.” Roxy’s grin widened even more.

“What&#33; No way.” Sin and Delilah responded. They both leapt from the couch and silently ran towards the room. Sin opened the door softly and both peeked inside. Chloe was sleeping on her side pressed against Lex. His arm was wrapped protectively around her waist. Sin and Delilah’s eyebrows rose when they saw very clearly through the sheets how naked the couple was. Delilah almost laughed at the pleased look on couple’s faces. Sin closed the door.

“Aww…They look so cute together.” Delilah said once she was back in the living room.

“All right, Chlo&#33; Way to score&#33;” Sin said in a much more practical tone.

“Our little girl’s not so little anymore.” Roxy said sadly. She looked at Sin and Delilah for a few moments. “So, what do you guys say to teasing the shit out of her tomorrow?” Roxy softly laughed.

“Sounds like a plan.” Sin joined in. Delilah couldn’t help but grin. Poor Chloe&#33; She was going to be in for it.

**********************

Chloe awoke slowly to the noises coming from outside the room. She grimaced at the pain that quickly raced through her body. Damn&#33; She tried moving her stiff shoulders when the hand at her waist tightened. Memories of last night flooded her mind. The image of certain bald billionaire was most definitely center stage.

Mmm…Lex...

She closed her eyes when she felt his lips against her ear. “Morning.” He whispered sending chills down her spine. She felt him smile against her ear.

“Morning, yourself.” Chloe responded burrowing closer to his warmth.

“How are you feeling?” His hot breath beside her ear was turning her insides to jelly.

“Hmm…I could be better.” She purred seductively while wiggling her ass against his shaft.

“Is that right? Why don’t we see about making you better?” His husky voice lowered an octave.

Chloe let out a groan when his hand went exploring all over her body. His fingers gently grazed over her breast. He cupped the creamy globe in his hand and flicked his thumb over her nipple. She gasped at the intense heat his touch created. He took the nipple and rolled it between his fingers.

“Ohhh&#33;” Chloe moaned. Her breath caught as his fingers left her breast and burned a trail downwards. His hand caressed her stomach then upper thigh. Chloe felt herself growing wetter with every touch.

“Oh god&#33;” she murmured when his fingers found her curls. They delved into her secret garden and Lex marveled at how wet she was.

“Lex…” she groaned softly, loving the feeling his strong fingers were creating. His hardness pressing against her back increased her dampness. Slowly he stroked the core of her while his tongue licked the shell of her ear. Chloe was lost to the sensations. Little by little, his fingers stroked her jewel inflaming the fire within her into an inferno.

“God&#33;” she growled into her pillow. She was having a very difficult time keeping her voice down.

“Chloe…that’s it…let it go…” Lex whispered. He loved looking at her while she was in the throes of passion and his body burning with pent up desire.

The pressure was rising higher and higher within her. Suddenly, she felt him enter her from behind. He filled her completely and the feel of him was wonderful. He began to move and Chloe lost all rational thought. He thrust in and out of her while his fingers continued to weave their magic on her jewel. Faster and faster he thrusts. Their heavy breathing was the only sound in the room. Chloe lifted her leg slightly to give him better access and his thrusts deepened. Beads of sweat formed on both of them his thrusts increased in speed. Faster and faster he went.

“Yes&#33; That’s it&#33; God, you feel so good.” She growled. His magic fingers stroked her, teased her, rubbed her and pulled at her.

“Lex…you…this…Ohhh&#33;” she said softly at a loss for words. The rising pressure within her suddenly bursts and she felt herself climax. Lex lost his own battle when her passage closing tightly around him. His release was powerful as he came.

They both lay there for a few minutes. Their breathing labored and heavy.

When they finally drifted back, Lex pressed her closer to him.

“So, how did I do? Did I earn the extra credit?” His husky voice against her ear teased. She smiled in answer. In her book, he rated an A+++. She decided to have a little fun.

“Hmm…For Performance…an A-…For Technique…a B-…For stamina…well that merits a C+…Hmm…All in all you rate… a B+.” She giggled when he growled against her ear.

“You, my little witch, are going to regret you started this rating system?” He said kissing her neck. She yelped when he took a gentle bite.

“You cad&#33; How dare you harm my delicate person? I should toss you out of this room&#33;” She said primly.

In answer to her statement, Lex’s let his fingers do the talking. She felt the soft touches against the side of her stomach and jumped. No&#33;

“No&#33; Lex&#33; Don’t you dare&#33;” Chloe screeched but Lex was merciless. He tickled her until she couldn’t breathe.

“Bastard&#33;” she growled as she found herself flat on her back. He settled himself on top of her and grinned.

“All’s fair…” He said cheerily and her eyes narrowed. He was so going to pay. Before she could plan an attack, a knock at the door interrupted there play.

“Get your lazy asses up, you two. We’ve got coffee.” Roxy’s voice called from the other side of the door. Lex noted in amusement that Roxy said the magic word. Chloe all but pushed him off her in her efforts to get at the steaming liquid.

“Coffee&#33; Yeah&#33; How I’ve missed you&#33;” Chloe squealed as she quickly rose. She gasped suddenly when a flash of pain spread downwards from her face.

“Hey&#33; Don’t overdo it. You’re not a hundred percent yet.” Lex held on to her shoulders as she took in a series of deep breaths.

“Yeah&#33; Yeah&#33; I know.” Chloe agreed in an unfriendly fashion. She stood up slowly and slapped Lex’s hand away when he tried to help her.

“Do I look like a fragile flower?” Chloe yelled at him. Lex managed to hold back a grin. Chloe was back to normal.

“Let me think about that. No, you’re definitely not a delicate rose. Hmm…I believe you’re more a prickly cactus.” Lex responded. Chloe glared at him for a few seconds before picking up her pillow and whacked him in the face with it.

“Whatever&#33;” Chloe snorted as she turned and left the room. After she left, Lex let himself smile. He really loved it when she was feisty.

Chloe felt like she was floating towards the heavenly scent and found Roxy, Sin and Delilah sitting around the small kitchen table. After she and Lex settled themselves comfortably around the table, Chloe couldn’t help but smile at the fact that Lex Luthor was sitting in Roxy’s kitchen as if it was nothing out of the ordinary.

He smiled back. Chloe brought her attention back to her friends who were grinning like fools at her. She glared instead as she felt the blush creep up from her neck to flood her face.

“So…” Roxy began but stopped at the death glare Chloe was giving her. Definitely later…she thought.

“How are you feeling, Chloe? Do you want to talk about what happened?” Delilah asked. Chloe shook her head not wanting to think about it. Not yet.

Roxy looked at Lex and Chloe for a few minutes before finally broaching the subject.

“We’ve come up with a plan to get at Apollo. The first part of our plan is already in motion but we will need Lex for the second part.” She began. Chloe gazed intently at her friend. Half of her wanted revenge for what Apollo had done. The other half didn’t want her friends in danger because of her.

“Rox…” Chloe began but stopped when Roxy raised her hand.

“It has to be.” Roxy said interrupting whatever Chloe was about to say.

“After what he did to you, did you honestly believe I’d leave him standing?” Lex questioned when Chloe turned his way.

Chloe shook her head. She should have known that something would be done. She just wasn’t comfortable getting into a war with Apollo.

“Don’t worry, Chlo. We’ve got friends who’ll back us up.” Sin grinned suddenly.

“Okay. From the top. What did you do?” Chloe asked. Roxy began her explanation.

“Delilah ran through what happened. From Angie tackling Lex, to those other two skanks tossing you into that room with Apollo.” Chloe nodded and motioned for Roxy to go on.

“First, we needed to find out what was up. Delilah went to her friends at Eden’s. Sin and I went to friends who work around that area.” Roxy began.

“Do you remember Dix? She said to say hello. Anyway, Dix told me that Apollo was laid up and not seeing anyone. Rumor has it he’s royally pissed off. He’s even saying that he was jumped by two or three rival gang bangers.” Roxy laughed at the outrageousness.

“Of course, we set Dix straight and told her the real truth. Dix had a ball hearing that Apollo got his ass beat by ‘a rich, white boy’.” Sin joined in the laughter.

“Dix said we’ve given her a wonderful treat and she couldn’t wait to tell her girls. That’s when it hit me. I asked Dix if she’d have her girls spread it all over the east side. Dix said it would be her pleasure. She told me that if we needed help, we could count on her.” Roxy said.

“So then,” Sin began her part, “Rox and I decided to go pay a visit on Shondra on the West Side. If there was any dirt on Apollo, Shondra would definitely know. She told me,word on the street was, that Apollo has a silent partner.” Sin said taking a sip of her coffee.

“What?” Chloe asked. She and Lex were entranced by the information her friends were unloading.

“Yep. He’s got a silent partner. And word has it, this silent partner is actually the top guy. Apollo is nothing but a front.” Sin snorted disgustedly.

“Damn&#33; That means that Apollo’s not the one producing the Gold. Fuck&#33;” Chloe slammed her hand down.

“I’m not so sure. When I went to Eden’s, from what I heard, Apollo’s little operation seems to be his own. I don’t think his silent partner is aware of Apollo’s side business.” Delilah frowned.

“Shondra said that she’ll dig into Apollo’s business and she’ll let me know what she has. I also told let is slip about Apollo getting his ass beat. Shondra promised me everyone in the West Side would know by this afternoon.” Sin said taking another sip.

“Why would she want to help? I mean, I know Apollo’s a prick but…” Chloe asked but Sin quickly waved away her question.

“Shondra has issues with Apollo. I won’t go into details. Let’s just say she’s not opposed to having his ass tossed into the river.” Sin informed.

“Remind me to hire you ladies for LexCorp. With the information you’ve just provided me I will be well armed against Apollo.” Lex remarked in awe. Delilah blushed a little at the praise. Sin and Roxy simply grinned.

“There’s more.” Delilah began. “My friend informed me that Apollo has broken with the silent partner. Apollo’s furious with you, Lex. Your beating him has severely damaged his reputation. Even though he tried to cover it up, there were still some witnesses who have happily been spreading the gossip. Apollo wants to take you out, but his silent partner has practically forbid him to do anything to you. I heard that Apollo has cut all ties and decided to fly solo.” Delilah added.

Shit&#33; Can Lex deal with Apollo? What could Apollo do to someone like Lex? Chloe thought suddenly uncertain about the whole situation.

She felt her hand being gently squeezed and found that Lex had taken hold of it while still centering his attention on Roxy. She squeezed back very grateful.

“There something else you should know.” Roxy began. Chloe closed her eyes not liking the tone of her voice.

“When we met up with Delilah at Eden’s, we decided to pay a little visit on Angie and the two skanks.” Roxy said a bit slowly.

“Let’s just say Angie and her friends are not so pretty any more.” Sin’s voice darkened as she said this.

“Fuck&#33; Don’t you two have enough to worry about? I’m glad you made them pay but doesn’t this make things worse.” Chloe groaned. Roxy smiled gently.

“I would never, ever let anyone get away with hurting you, Chlo. We’ve got the bitches. Now, all we need is to get the asshole.” Roxy voice was fierce with emotion.

“And you Delilah, I don’t think you can go back to Eden’s. What are you going to do?” Chloe asked. Delilah smiled and shrugged her shoulders.

“All right. I’ve heard enough.” Lex spoke up. All eyes went towards him. Four pairs of eyes ranging from curious to irritate gazed at him.

“It’s obviously not safe for you all to stay here.” Lex began.

“Thanks for the newsflash&#33;” Chloe interrupted with a snort. Lex frowned at her before proceeding.

“I want you all to pack your things, that includes you Chloe, and stay with me at the mansion.” Lex announced. Silence greeted his announcement. Four pairs of eyes stared at him in stunned shock. Then the shock wore off.

“What&#33;” Delilah said.

“No way&#33;” Roxy yelled.

“Uh…Uh…Won’t do it.” Sin growled.

Lex held up his hand for silence. They all glared at him. Shit&#33; Now he understood where Chloe gets that stubbornness of hers.

“I want you to stay for a little while. You can all still keep in contact with your friends but I would feel a little better if you were at the mansion. It makes everything easier if we have a main base of operations.” Lex said.

“A mansion…Hmm…You know it might not be so bad.” Delilah began.

“Delilah, they call it Smallville for a reason. The town itself is probably a block long.” Roxy said disgustedly.

“Uh…And those people. I have never seen that much flannel in all my life.” Sin shuddered at the thought.

“Don’t you think you’re exaggerating just a little?” Delilah threw back.

“No. Can you imagine me in flannel? I’d rather be shot point blank.” Roxy grimaced as an image of her in flannel flashed through her mind.

Chloe couldn’t hold back the laughter at the picture. Roxy in flannel was just too hysterical. All three women gazed in her direction as if she had lost her mind.

“Actually, Rox, I have a friend who loves flannel. He has some shirts that would be perfect for you.” Chloe teased. Roxy glared.

“But if not flannel, I’m sure Lana would mind parting with some of her pink outfits.” Chloe grinned wickedly. Roxy and Sin shuddered then glared even more fiercely at her.

“You are a brat&#33; And because you are behaving very bratty, I have a question for you.” Roxy said slowly. Apprehension suddenly raced through Chloe’s body. What is she up to?

“I wondered…Is Mr. Luthor as big as he looks? Now that you have first hand knowledge and all.” Roxy smiled winking at Lex.

“Yes&#33; Very big&#33; And aren’t you jealous?” Chloe shot back not embarrassed for a second. They all laughed as they gazed at Lex. He felt himself blush and all the women laughed even harder. The three ladies of the night proceeded to tease Chloe about her newly acquired knowledge. Chloe took it all in good stride. The conversation then changed to technique. Lex’s face reddened even more.

Damn&#33; Perhaps, I should have kept my mouth shut…Lex sighed in resignation.

Hi All...I am soo very, very sorry this has been delayed...Please forgive me... :worship2:

Here is the next installment...Hope you enjoy...

*************

Jaded – Part 12

Lex looked at the scene before him and almost groaned. Trying to get four women ready in two hours was tantamount to parting the River Nile. He couldn’t understand how women who proved to be ruthless and determined could completely lose it at the thought of packing one simple bag. Arguments flared and the women scurried here and there.

“Can we please get going? The car will be here any minute.” Lex shouted over the noise and stopped when he was given murderous glares by all the women.

“Now listen…we are going to Smallville…SMALLVILLE. Can you please try to keep the clothing at a low key level?” Chloe returned to her argument with Roxy.

“What are you saying? I have to suffer just ‘cause we’re in that god awful town.” Roxy growled back with her hands on her hips.

“I’m saying that you could bring some jeans and some regular shirts. What in God’s name are you going to need black fish net stockings for?” Chloe held up the stockings in her hand.

“Those are my favorites.” Roxy gasped as she took them gently from Chloe’s grasp. Chloe rolled her green eyes.

“And what the hell are you going to need these for?” Chloe asked holding up a bunch of garter belts.

“Give me that…You never know what could happen.” Roxy said as she took the garter belts and threw them in the bag.

“Why don’t you just throw your vibrator in while you’re at it?” Chloe said disgustedly.

“That was the first thing I put in the bag. I never leave home without it.” Roxy saucily shot back.

“Here are some jeans.” Sin produced proudly. Chloe rolled her eyes again and prayed for patience.

“I said jeans, Sin. Those are daisy dukesl&#33;” Chloe growled.

“They’re still jeans.” Sin remarked with a frown on her face.

“What?” Chloe asked shaking her head a little. She couldn’t believe she was having this conversation.

“Never mind…Listen here, missy…What would you have us dress like? Nuns?” Roxy yelled as she began stuffing her short skirts into the bag.

Delilah couldn’t help but laugh which earned a glare from her three friends.

“Sorry…I don’t know what got in me…” Delilah said trying to control the bubbling laughter.

“Enough&#33; I did not realize when I said you have two hours to pack that…that chaos would ensue&#33;” Lex shouted as they arguments finally made him lose his patience.

“You have ten minutes to get ready. If you are not ready within that time span, I will toss you all into the car and leave with what you have. Got it&#33;” Lex yelled as he turned and stormed out of the apartment. He had to get away from these crazy women.

All the women looked at his retreating back as if he had lost his mind.

“Bossy…ain’t he?” Roxy quipped into the silence. Chloe couldn’t help by smile.

“Yes…But isn’t he so cute when he’s behaving manly.” Chloe shot back. All the women looked at each other and laughed as they continued packing.

“Okay, ladies. On a serious note, as soon as we get to Smallville part 2 of our plan will be put to action.” Delilah went on once the laughter died down.

“Lex will be in charge of Part 2 – Strip the bastard of all his cash.” Sin cooed as she rubbed her hands together.

“Mmm…Lex will make sure the son of a bitch has his club taken away. Not only that, but I hear some law suits are going to be filed against Mr. Jones and his club. Shutting down the place until further notice. With no money at hand, and his club closed down, Apollo will find himself suddenly destitute. No even his precious Gold will cover his loses.” Delilah said silkily.

“And once that happens, then we can proceed with Part 3 – Throw the bastard to the Wolves. I hear the wolves of Metropolis have been waiting eagerly for him and we really shouldn’t disappoint them.” Roxy purred.

“Mmm…I can’t wait to see that prick get a taste of his own medicine. For everything that he has done, I wish I could rip him apart myself.” Sin growled nastily.

“Don’t worry, Sin. We have friends who will happily oblige us…Apollo will pay for everything that he has done. We’ll make certain of that…” Roxy grinned.


There was silence in the apartment for a few minutes as the women were all lost in thought.

“For heaven sake, can we please get a move on?” Lex growled as he stormed through the doors. The women were snapped out of there dark thoughts. They looked towards Lex’s frustrated face and laughed uncontrollably. Picking up there bags, one by one they passed Lex and winked. Chloe was the last to leave and Lex caught her in his arms.

“They are going to drive me crazy, aren’t they?” Lex asked as he pressed her closer to him, placing his chin on her forehead.

“I guess, Mr. Luthor. We shall just have to wait and see…” Chloe replied saucily as she stepped out of his and smack him on the ass. She added a wink to her very evil smile.

God help me…Lex thought as he followed her to the car.

****************

Other side of town…

“I don’t care what it takes&#33; I want that cocksucker brought to me&#33; I’m going to teach the prick a lesson. Do you hear me, Dieger? Bring him to me&#33;” Apollo Jones shouted at the top of his lungs to one of his lieutenants.

“Apollo, shit, man you have got to calm down. Do you know what you’re saying? You’re talking about Lex Luthor. The man is protected.” Dieger reasoned.

“I don’t fucking care. That piece of dogshit is going to fucking die&#33; No one does this shit to me and gets away with it.” Apollo screamed. Taking a large glass object from his desk, Apollo flung it at the mirror on the far wall. It shattered into tiny pieces.

His face was a mess. A torn fucking mess that Lex Luthor caused. It was severely bruised and distorted. Long gashes marred the once smooth skin. Several swelled balls had formed around his eyes and cheeks. That bastard knocked out his two front teeth and his lips had multiple splits on them.

Shit&#33; I’m going to fucking enjoy ripping out your fucking heart out&#33; When I get my hands on you…

“Find him&#33; Bring that bastard to me. I don’t care if he’s still pretty. The boys can do whatever they like. I just want him alive long enough for him to see me fuck his bitch and then cut his dick off&#33;” Apollo yelled.

“Okay, man. I totally understand you’re pissed. But you’ve got to think. I’ve been outside and I don’t know how word leaked but your rep ain’t shit. Soon, the rival gangs are going to make a move. You have got to think about that first.” Dieger began reasonably.

Apollo took another object from his desk and threw it at Dieger. Dieger managed to duck in the nick of time.

“I know exactly how word leaked. Which is my next order…Find Delilah and those two whores Roxy and Sin. They were the ones who spread the news. The two whores you and the boys can take care of. Delilah, you bring to me. I want to deal with that lying bitch myself.” Apollo growled as he tried to calm his raging fury.

Fuck&#33; He needed a hit. Just a bit of the Gold…

“Fine, Apollo. We’ll get those bitches for you. But you’ve got to lay off Luthor.” Dieger replied smoothly.

“I SAID I WANT LEX LUTHOR&#33; YOU WILL BRING HIM TO ME&#33;” Apollo grabbed Dieger by the shirt collar and slammed him against the wall.

“Fuck&#33; Apollo, stop and fucking think&#33; You can’t touch him. Remember what ‘The Man’ said. You go after him and he’ll take it personally. Do you really want a war with ‘The Man’?” Dieger tried reasoning once again with his boss.

“Fuck that piece of shit&#33; I told him to go screw himself. I don’t need him any longer. I’m Apollo Jones. Everyone fears me&#33;” Apollo growled. Dieger looked into the silver eyes and saw the brimming insanity behind them.

Apollo was going to bring them all down. It was time to jump ship.

“Find Luthor and his bitch&#33; Once I finish with him, then that blonde bitch will see what fucking a real man is like.” Apollo growled. Dieger couldn’t move as Apollo still held him.

“What the fuck are you waiting for? I gave you an order.” Apollo yelled. He kicked his lieutenant in the stomach.

“A-Ap-pollo. Think. Y-You’re s-signing you o-own d-death w-warrant.” Dieger groaned painfully.

“I said find them and bring them to me&#33; Now, get the fuck out&#33; The next time I see you…it better be with those two fucks and that lying bitch in tow.” Apollo kicked his lieutenant once again.

Dieger crawled towards the door. With the help of the door knob, he stood himself up and left. He planned to get as far away as possible from Apollo Jones. But first he need some quick cash…

Apollo gazed out the window of his office once again. His silver eyes were shining with fury and hate. Lex Luthor was going to pay for what he did. Apollo would see to it. And then, he was going to have some fun with Lex’s bitch. And after he was done, he’d let his boys have at her…After all it was only fair…

******************

The tall distinguished slightly older gentleman opened the door to the private study very slowly. His dark blue gaze searched the dark room for the master of the house and found him sitting behind his desk gazing off into space. The laptop before him was flickering with the many changing numbers from the stock market.

Entering the room silently, the gentleman softly approached the desk.

“Sir…” He stopped before the desk. When the master of the house did not respond, he repeated himself again.

“Sir…We have some rather disturbing news.” The distinguished gentleman remarked uncomfortably.

“Yes…What is it?” the master of the house asked in a deep voice.

“Apollo Jones, Sir. Reports say that he has completely gone over the edge. I’m afraid he will not be any further use to you.” The distinguished gentleman informed shuffling from one foot to another. He hated giving his master such troubling news.

“Damn&#33; I had hoped to use him a little while longer. Is he going to heed my warning?” The master of the house responded as his fist hit the desk.

“No, sir. Mr. Jones is beyond hope. His addiction to the drug he has created is finally overcoming him.”

“I know. I still want to feed him to the sharks for going behind my back&#33;” the master retorted.

“Sir, if I may, I believe Mr. Luthor may have some help. Reports are filtering back that Mr. Jones reputation has severely suffered. Already rivals are forming to, as they say, ‘take out’ Mr. Jones.” The distinguished gentleman looked almost amused.

“Excuse me? Help? How?” The master of the house replied nonplussed.

“I received word from one of Apollo’s lieutenants. In exchange for some pocket money, which I have given him, he has informed me that three prostitutes and Mr. Luthor’s girlfriend are assisting him with Mr. Jones.”

The master looked up very confused. “Prostitutes. A girlfriend. I did not know Lex was seeing anyone.”

“Mmm…Neither did I. But he has told me that Apollo is hunting these women now.”

“Interesting…Very interesting…It seems I may have underestimated Lex.” The master leaned back in his chair. The turn of events were flowing rapidly in his mind. The master’s dark eyes were alight with amusement.

“Sir, what would you like to do?” The distinguished gentleman asked curiously.

“If I know Lex, he’s going to go after Apollo financially. That’s what I would do. So we shall provide Lex with some help albeit invisibly.” The master grinned.

“As you wish. And if Mr. Luthor can not handle Mr. Jones?” The distinguished gentleman asked.

“If Lex can not handle Apollo, then I’m going to intervene. I will teach Apollo Jones that it is not wise to play me for a fool.” The master responded with a deadly gleam in his eyes.

“As you wish, sir. Will you do the honors personally?” The distinguished gentleman asked.

“Yes&#33; I will take care of Apollo Jones&#33;” The master of the house smiled maliciously.

TBC...

So what do you think? Gotta love the ladies... :blinkkiss:

[Clannadlvr]

mwhahahahah&#33; ooohhhh I love the master of the house&#33; Apollo is going to get what&#39;s coming to him&#33;&#33;

I second the lionel idea, that was what i was thinking the whole time, for two reasons, one was he knew that &#39;Mr. Luthor&#39; was Lex, without the guy saying so and two, he called him Lex, not Mr. Luthor. plus the ovious part, this is something that the MB would be involved in. :biggrin:
Can&#39;t wait for more, hurry up on that update.

[Queen Of Tact]

Yeah&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; U updated&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; *HUGS*

[vardaquareien]

Ok before this update I&#39;d been thinking that "The Man" was Lionel but seeing as the servant called Lex Mr Luthor, that blows that theory out of the water&#33; Like Rose Ann The whole older gentleman and master really reminded me of Bruce and Alfred...hmmm I wonder what they&#39;re doing mixed up in all this?...if it is them&#33; Very interesting&#33;&#33;&#33;

[SexInStilettos]

omg this is so great...but u are such a tease&#33; :tease:

[ColumbiaBlue]

Taking a large glass object from his desk, Apollo flung it at the mirror on the far wall. It shattered into tiny pieces.
Apollo, two words: anger management. Now that that&#39;s out of the way, great update&#33;&#33;&#33;

the master guy sounds like lionel
Yup, thinking the same thing.

Update soon&#33;&#33;&#33;

~Manda :blinkkiss:

[LarkLuthor]

More? Please?

[gina]

Great update&#33; Woah, Apollo is really psycho and scary. I hope Chlex and the girls put their plan into action before he has the chance to do anything to them. I can&#39;t wait to see his demise&#33; And I&#39;m very curious to see who this "master" is.

Please continue this soon&#33; :)

[Lady Aquitaine]

Hi All...It seems like I&#39;m apologizing for my delays...Once again I&#39;m sorry to have kept you all waiting...Here is the next installment...I hope you enjoy... :biggrin:

****************

Jaded – Part 13

“FUUCKK&#33;” A roar reverberated throughout the office followed by a series of crashes as Apollo Jones overturned his large desk in one swipe. Following this he picked up his heavy desk chair and flung it across the room.

“That son of a fucking bitch&#33; Piece of fucking shit&#33;” Apollo roared to the few people in the room who cowered and ducked the flying objects being thrown about.

“Apollo, what are we going to do? The city wants us out of here by the end of the week.” One of Apollo’s men asked quickly. Apollo’s silver gaze fell upon the man who spoke.

“Where in the fuck is Dieger? Why is he not dealing with this shit?” Apollo asked as he forced himself to take deep, calming breaths. He needed to think. What was he going to do? His club. How could they shut down his club?

“Dieger turned chicken-shit and split a few days ago.” The man who had spoken up responded again. All the other people in the room seemed tongue tied.

“Shiiiit&#33; That fucker&#33; Find that bastard and bury him. I don’t ever what to see him again. Has anyone been able to find out where Luthor or those bitches are?” Apollo looked around the room. Everyone shook their heads afraid to speak.

“They’ve split. Luthor…his girl…Delilah… They’ve skipped town. Even the two whores have disappeared.” The man replied.

“Shit&#33; Shit&#33; Shit&#33;” Apollo paused for a few seconds. “All right here’s the deal. The two whores had to have had some friends. Find those friends and get them to talk. If you have to beat the shit out of some then do it.” Apollo silver eyes narrowed as he gave these orders. Most of the people in the room blanched.

“Some of these friends may have protectors. If we go after them, we’ll risk a war and I know for a fact that the Snakeman protects the Westside girls. Are you sure you want to get into it with him?”

Apollo looked at the spokesman for the group. His silver eyes gleamed maliciously.

“What’s your name?” Apollo asked though his not knowing names was no surprise to the people in the room.

“Ah…Donnell.” Donnell responded slowly. Apollo smiled at Donnell as he approached him.

Donnell had been staring intensely into Apollo’s face and therefore did not notice the gun that Apollo had slipped into his hand. Apollo pointed the gun and shot point blank.

Shock filled Donnell’s features as he fell to the floor. Apollo looked around the room waving the gun.

“Anyone else want to question me?” Apollo asked. The others in the room looked at the dead body on the floor and then at Apollo. No one spoke a word.

“Find out where the two whores are. The whores will know where Luthor and the other bitches are. Got it. Now get the fuck out and clear this shit off my floor&#33;” Apollo turned his back on the body and walked towards the large window that overlooked Metropolis’ Southside as men jumped to do Apollo’s bidding. A hatred so intense burned within him. Luthor and those sluts were going to pay. Apollo allowed a smile to form on his face as images of how he would make them all pay ran through his mind… And he’d start with the cause of it all…Chloe Sullivan.

********************
Luthor Mansion… A few days later…

Lex smiled triumphantly as he hung up the phone. Part two of the master plan was in the works. Eden’s Gate had been shut down due to a series of law suits filed against the club and his smile increased when informed that due to a series of health code violations the club will not reopen until further notice. Perfect&#33;

What did surprise him, however, was the criminal investigation that was underway as evidence of Apollo’s Liquid Gold mysteriously found their way to the police. How could that have happened? Lex’s feeling on the police or their investigation methods were not particularly high and he knew they were not smart enough to find this particular drug…even if said drug fell on top of them with a sign reading Liquid Gold… No…This is someone’s doing… But who?

Nevertheless Apollo’s assets were frozen pending investigation and his demise would be soon. All Lex had to do was keep Chloe and her friends safe until the bitter end. Which was easier said than done. Signs of unrest were taking a hold of the ladies. Lex had not allowed them off the property and they were all immediately chafing at the strict rules he imposed upon them. Especially Chloe. Lex practically threatened to tie her down in order to get her to follow his rules. A wicked smile appeared on her face when he shouted this and Lex couldn’t help but grin. One day he was going to have to try that particular idea out…

Lex also had to increase his butler’s salary in an effort to compel his butler not to quit. Although with these particular ladies…any sane man would quit after an hour.

A knock at the door interrupted his thoughts. Chloe came in with a sunny smile upon her face and curiosity brimming in her eyes. The bruises on her face had faded to dull red marks while her lips had healed and were slightly scabbed over.

“What are you doing?” She asked looking around inquisitively and Lex could clearly see the wheels of her mind turning. Chloe was like a hawk in search of prey. Thank goodness she was his girlfriend. He could almost imagine the interesting tidbits…Wait…Girlfriend? Girlfriend… He smiled at the woman before him. Her eyes were currently on the documents he had spread out on his desk. She was trying very hard to read them without being too conspicuous. Chloe was his girlfriend. Was she just that though? No…She was more than that...

“Lex? What’s wrong? You look like you swallowed a toad.” Chloe eyes finally focused long enough on him and concern filled them immediately. Rushing over to him, she placed her hand on his forehead.

“Hmm…You’re a bit warm…But I don’t think you have a fever. Are you feeling well? Should I call a doctor?” Chloe hands were on his cheek as she gazed into his eyes. Her green eyes narrowed as they gazed deeply into his.

“Your eyes look clear and you don’t seem shaky. Why are you not speaking?” Chloe hand grasped his chin and she shook it gently.

Lex still could not speak. If anything were to happen to her…How could he live without her…Am I…

“Okay…Now you’re beginning to worry me. Lex, what’s wrong? Dammit, say something?” Chloe gently shook him. A gasp escaped her as Lex wrapped his arms around her waist and settled her on his lap. The smile he gave her was so tender it went straight into her heart and almost brought tears to her eyes. God, she was getting sappy…

“I’m fine…I was sorting some things out.” Lex spoke softly still unable to believe his discovery. How had she done it? How did this nosy, stubborn, opinionated reporter capture his heart completely?

He grinned at her suddenly. I, Lex Luthor am in love with Chloe Sullivan. But did she feel the same? Was this a fling to her? The grin left his face just as quickly as it appeared. How does she feel? She’s never said anything.

“What in the world is the matter with you? You are acting even more strangely than your usual norm and believe me for you that is saying a lot.” Chloe asked as she watched the many expressions on his face. That fact that he allowed these expressions to show caused her to worry.

How do I find out? Lex thought …Perhaps if I…Hang on…Did she just insult me?

“What was that?” Lex’s voice turned smooth as honey. His eyes were alight with a fire. Chloe loved to tease him. He was so cute when riled.

“Nothing. Nothing at all.” She smiled mischievously. Lex was not convinced. A knock on the door interrupted their banter. Danvers walked in and quickly stopped as he gazed at the couple. His face flushed a bright red at his stupidity for interrupting the intimate scene.

“Sir…I apologize for the interruption.” Danvers went on in a shaky voice.

“It’s fine Danvers. What is it?” Chloe was about to stand when she felt Lex’s hand stray from her waist to caress her upper thigh.

Well in that case…she thought as she settled herself closer towards his shaft causing Lex to groan softly in her ear. Chloe held back a grin. The tightening of his hand on her thigh told her she would pay dearly once Danvers left.

Chloe couldn’t wait for his retribution. Hmm…This desk seems nice and sturdy…

“Sir, Ms. Lang is here to see you.” Danvers responded in a much sturdier voice.

Lex felt Chloe stiffen in his arms and almost groaned in disgust. How could he forget? The quarterly reports. Damn&#33;

“Lana is here. How nice.” Chloe responded proud that her voice remained normal.

“Chloe…She is here because of Talon business. I am co-owner remember.” Lex’s voice held a hint of amusement.

“And you could not meet her at the Talon during business hours because…” Chloe growled softly in an effort not to lose her temper. Lex was right and it irked her that she could not say anything.

“With everything that has been happening, I thought it best that she come here. Thank you, Danvers. Please send her in.” Lex informed Danvers while trying to get Chloe to stand up. Chloe proved stubborn once again. She refused to budge from her very comfortable seat.

“What are you doing? Do you honestly think I’m going to leave you alone in the same room with that doe-eyed tramp?” Chloe hissed into Lex’s ear. Lex sighed as he prayed for patience. How on earth could Chloe be jealous of Lana Lang? Yes…Lana was very pretty. But Chloe was beautiful, amazing, dazzling…She should know this by now.

“Chloe…” He began but she firmly shook her head.

Chloe watched as Lana gaily strolled in. Her gaze took in Lana’s outfit and she almost jumped from Lex’s lap. Lana obviously thought this was more than just a regular meeting if the low-cut soft pink top that clung to her upper torso and her skin tight jeans were any indication. Chloe also noticed Lana’s hair was arranged in curls about her face and her makeup was perfect as always.

Damn&#33; The little hussy’s done some prepping…Chloe thought maliciously and a bit insecurely.

Lana stopped suddenly when she spotted Chloe on Lex’s lap. She forced herself to remain calm. “Chloe. How nice to see you here.” Lana said serenely.

What in the hell is she doing there? Lana thought.

“Lana. How are you? How’s the eye?” Chloe replied smoothly although she almost yelped at Lex’s pinch.

“Be nice.” He whispered in her ear. She turned to glare at him with a look that said ‘Are you kidding?’

“Lex, I have those figures for this quarter’s profits and I have some questions regarding…ah…Chloe, would you mind…This is kind of private.” Lana smiled a little vindictively. Chloe’s mouth dropped open at the audacity of the pink nightmare before her.

“Excuse me?” Chloe growled angrily when she was able to speak. Lex, knowing another confrontation was brewing, was about to intervene when Danvers once again knocked and entered the room.

I must remember to give him another raise…Lex thought in relief.

“Excuse me, Sir. Ms. Sullivan, your presence is requested in the solar room. They said it is rather urgent.” Danvers said in his very dignified voice.

Chloe closed her eyes as indecision marred her features. She didn’t want to leave Lex alone but she also needed to find out what was wrong. Damn&#33; The doe-eyed slut wins out.

“I’ll be right there.” Chloe answered. She turned in Lex’s direction. Concern was already on his face.

“I’ll go with you. Lana can wait.” He told her quickly but Chloe shook her head.

“Nah…Don’t worry. If it’s anything serious…I promise to come get you.” Chloe smiled at him. His warm hands cupped her cheeks.

“You had better.” Lex said seriously and he kissed her tenderly. When he pulled back, Chloe saw a gleam in his eyes. Was that…Is that…

She stood up slowly with a confused expression. Does he… Oooh…Could he…

She walked out wondering if what she had seen was true. Lana grimaced as Chloe passed her. A slow burning anger engulfed her body. Damn&#33; Damn&#33; Damn&#33;

******************

Danvers led the way to the solar room. Chloe took that time to reflect on her feelings for Lex. What did she feel? Okay…Let’s think about this. Do I love him? She smiled quickly at that foolish question. Of course I do&#33; She loved him so much it was almost painful at times. Did he love her? What was that look? Should I tell him? No&#33; Not yet&#33; I can’t… Maybe I just imagined it… Of course I did… It was just wishful thinking…

Chloe arrived at the large solar room still perplexed about the look Lex gave her. She looked around and noticed that Delilah was the only person in the room sitting on a lounge chair. Her loose dark hair fell about her as her head was pressed in her hands.

“What’s going on? Where are Rox and Sin? I thought you all wanted to see me.” Chloe asked softly as fear slowly spread throughout her body. Delilah quickly looked up and Chloe saw the sadness and fear in her violet eyes.

“They’re gone, Chloe. They left for Metropolis and I don’t know if they’re ever going to come back.” Delilah whispered.

TBC...

Oh no... :ohmy:

[BlushingRose]

Oh no is definitely right&#33;&#33;&#33; :ohmy: :ohmy:

Love this chappy...love that Lex and Chloe are slowly coming to realize they&#39;re in love with each other.

And :hammer: need I say who that is for?? What an idiot...

I still think it&#39;s Bruce that&#39;s behind Apollo&#39;s troubles. Doesn&#39;t sound like MB&#39;s style at all.

One question...<yes, I&#39;m "Ms. Picky"...live with it, LOL>...how does Gabe feel about Chloe staying at the mansion rather than going home? It would be nice if you could give us a little insight into that in the next chapter. Maybe the evil PP :hammer: can say something in her conversation with Lex. Just for continunity purposes, pretty please? :)

Great, great, story...I can&#39;t wait for the next update&#33;&#33;

Hi All...Here is the next installment...I hope you all enjoy it very much... :biggrin:

*****************

Jaded – Part 14

“What&#33; What do you mean they’re gone and you don’t know if they’re coming back? What the hell happened?” Chloe screeched in disbelief. They wouldn’t be that stupid. They couldn’t…

“Yes. They left about a half hour ago.” Delilah began to pace as ideas began to form in her mind.

“Delilah&#33; How could you just let them go? Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Chloe stop Delilah’s pacing as she gripped her shoulders.

“You’re kidding, right? You actually believe I can stop Rox and Sin once they have their damned mind made up&#33;” Delilah shouted back angrily as the firm control on her patience loosened a bit. Chloe face turned bright red as she backed off immediately. She understood what Delilah meant. Once those two had their minds set, not even Chloe could talk sense into them. And to be perfectly honest, she was exactly the same way. But what the hell were they going to do?

“What happened?” Chloe asked in a calmer tone. Okay&#33; Got to think of a plan&#33; Can’t go off the deep end…she thought.

“Roxy received a call from one of Dix’s girls. The Snakeman has demanded that they get their asses down there quickly. Dix and some of the other girls were severely beaten by Apollo’s men. Snakeman’s pissed off and he wants an accounting of what in the hell is going on. It’s a huge mess.” Delilah violet eyes closed as the horrors her friends were going through flashed before her.

“Snakeman? Sounds charming. And why is he called Snakeman?” Chloe asked sarcastically as she tried to soak up as much information as possible.

“He’s called that because of his large boa constrictor tattoo that run’s from one arm, across his back and down his other arm. He also has matching rattle snake tattoos on both his front and back torso.” Delilah informed.

“Lovely picture. But I thought Rox and Sin were independent. Why in the hell are they cow-towing to this Snakeman?” Chloe questioned.

“Chloe…Staying here is fine for now but Roxy and Sin are eventually going to have to go back to Metropolis and resume their lives once everything is over. How are they expected to go back to the streets with the Snakeman hunting them down?”

“Damn&#33; Why couldn’t they just wait for me? I would have gone with them.” Chloe growled her own mind began churning. Rox and Sin had a forty minute head start…

“I wanted to go, but Roxy nixed that idea. Rox was very adamant about not wanting you to chase after her. She wants you to stay here where Lex can protect you and she made me promise to keep an eye on you.” Delilah rolled her eyes at this ridiculous thought and her voice held hint of exasperation.

“Right&#33; Whatever&#33; Did they honestly think I was going to sit around twiddling my thumbs and do nothing?” Chloe snorted causing Delilah to smile for the first time since Roxy and Sin left. Chloe was a fighter just like them and Roxy must have been crazy to think that Chloe would actually stay put.

“I’m glad you said that because if we leave now, we can catch up to them and the Snakeman.” Delilah began eagerly.

“Good. I’ll tell Lex…” Chloe’s voice drifted off and she frowned when Delilah shook her head. Crap&#33; She had to tell Lex… She promised.

“No&#33; We’ll leave him a note and he can follow. We need to move around quickly and inconspicuously. With Lex in tow, he’ll give us away. I mean let’s face it…there are not that many sophisticated, bald billionaires in Metropolis. Lex would stand out like a sore thumb.” Delilah had grabbed Chloe’s hand and was rushing her out the door.

“But…but…we have to tell him. He will be furious if we take off without him. Have you ever seen him furious? It is not a pleasant sight.” Chloe responded uneasily as Delilah dragged her to the front hall.

“I’m telling you, Chlo, it is better this way. Trust me.” Delilah paused to grab a set of keys on the table by the door.

“Delilah…What in the hell do you think we are going to do? What if Apollo catches us?” Chloe tried for reason but found that Delilah proved as stubborn as her friends.

“He won’t. Snakeman will protect us.” Delilah said firmly.

“And how do you know that? I’m not so sure I should trust someone who goes by the name of Snakeman with my safety&#33;” Chloe dug in her heels.

“He will. Trust me. Snakeman will protect us…plus I’m leaving Lex directions on how to get there. Now, are you coming or what?” Delilah’s voice lowered as she wrote a quick note to Lex and left it in place of the keys. Chloe wanted to kick herself. She really did not have a choice. Roxy and Sin were her very best friends. How in the hell do I get myself into shit like this?

“Damn&#33; Yes&#33; Yes&#33; I’m coming. Lex is so going to kill me once he gets his hands on me&#33;” Chloe moaned as she followed Delilah out the front door.

**********************

The master of the house sat brooding in his darkened study. The only light in the room was coming from the fireplace he was currently focusing his dark intense eyes upon. An image of the two slain bodies was forever etched in his mind. The two people who had meant the world to him. His parents. Killed by an unknown assailant.

Damn&#33; He had been so close…He thought. After years of spending a considerable amount of money to find a name for the murdering thief, word had reached him of a club owner who was telling quite a story. A story of how in his much younger days he ran with a certain crowd and in this crowd a certain thief gained his ‘stripes’ by ‘popping’ two very important and very wealthy vics.

At first he didn’t know whether he should trust the information. Was this just bullshit? But when this particular club owner mentioned these vics were killed outside a theatre…

Apollo Jones knew the bastard and had been so close to giving up a name…If only he had had more time…

There got to be someone else who had to have known…Apollo couldn’t have been the only one…

“Sir…We have a problem…” The distinguished gentleman said in a grave voice as he entered the study. The master looked up thankful that his dark thoughts were interrupted though his dark eyes turned wary when his gaze settled on the distinguished gentleman.

“What’s wrong? What has happened?” The master asked hating the hoarseness of his voice.

“Our reports have indicated that the ladies who were assisting Mr. Luthor have left his mansion.” The distinguished gentleman informed.

“What&#33;” The master slammed his fist onto his desk. “What in the hell were they thinking? When was this?”

“Two of the ladies left an hour ago…The other two left a half hour ago… The last two were spotted heading out of Smallville and in the direction of Metropolis.” The distinguished gentleman responded.

“What happened to make them leave?” The master asked as he gathered some papers on his desk.

“Our reports indicate that Apollo Jones’ men have been attacking friends of the three prostitutes. I believe a call may have been placed to the ladies staying with Mr. Luthor.” The distinguished gentleman went on.

“Damn&#33; Do we have a track on any of them?” The master of the house asked as he stood quickly walking around his desk.

“Not the earlier two. The last two are being followed as we speak.” The distinguished gentleman replied.

“Does Lex know about this? You don’t mention him leaving.” The master replied as strode briskly from his study and followed a series of halls.

“I don’t believe so. Reports say that he is still in the mansion.” The distinguished gentleman replied as he followed the master of the house.

“Can you find out where the call was made from? That will give me an idea of where to start.” The master asked as he stopped before a large wooden paneled wall.

“I have already begun a trace. Once I receive the coordinates, I will give them to you in the car.” The distinguished gentleman answered.

The master of the house pressed his hand on one the wooden panels. It depressed into the wall and the large wall slid open before him.

“Sir, the prototypes are not ready…” The distinguished gentleman voiced worriedly as he followed the master.

“I understand and I won’t be using them. I will however take one or two gadgets with me. Call me as soon as you receive any information. Also, give me two hours head start. If Lex still remains at the mansion, place a call to him…Make certain he can not trace it back to us.” The master said as he grabbed the gadgets in question.

“As you wish. Sir...Master Bruce…Please be careful.” The distinguished gentleman said fretfully.

“I always am. Remember, Alfred…two hours.” With that last statement, Bruce Wayne jumped into his custom made black corvette and sped off.

********************

Lex’s patience with Lana Lang was at an end. He had been enclosed with her for two hours and he nothing had been accomplished. He noticed that she kept casting him coy and suggestive glances and tried his best to ignore them. As she sat in the chair across his desk, Lana positioned her body to show off her assets and he became frustrated with the brunette. But Lex was also frustrated with the fact that Chloe had not returned which surprised him considering her animosity towards Lana. He couldn’t shake the feeling that something was very wrong… A tingling sensation formed in the back of his neck and he kept rubbing at it.

“Lana, why don’t we call it a day? We’ve done a quite a bit.” Lex lied as he realized he’d say anything to get her out of there.

“Good. I don’t think my brain could handle any more complicated numbers.” she laughed softly as she batted her eyelashes at him. Lex was very tempted to roll his eyes. Lana was definitely not Chloe when it came to witty replies.

“Interesting… Well I have to get back to Chloe.” Lex said as his uneasiness increased.

“Chloe, huh? I didn’t know Chloe was staying with you. Does Gabe know his daughter is staying here? I mean, you do know how this looks…” Lana remarked snidely while gathering her papers. Lex’s blue-gray eyes narrowed at her not so hidden meaning and a fierce anger rose quickly within him.

“Not that it’s any of your business but due to special circumstances, Chloe and her friends are temporarily staying here and I’ve spoken with Gabe and he is fine with it. If I hear anyone allude to Chloe in any, shall we say, ‘negative way’, I will know exactly where it came from and deal with it accordingly.” Lex responded calmly though his eyes told a different story. Lana shrank away from the icy blast and quickly spoke to reassure him.

“I didn’t mean it like that. But you know how people will talk. I wouldn’t want Chloe’s reputation to suffer like that. It doesn’t look well that Chloe’s shacking up with you and…” Lex’s fist hitting the desk stopped Lana’s prattling and she jumped.

“Lana…I understand that you mean well, but frankly, it’s none of your damned business. And if I hear you or anyone else malign my girlfriend…you will have me to deal with. Is that understood?” Lex remarked coldly. Chills spread throughout her body at the frosty tone of Lex’s voice. She nodded her head simply.

“Good. Now I really have things to do. Danvers will show you the way out.” Lex growled as he dismissed her quickly. Lana had sorely tried his patience. He will not allow anyone to speak of Chloe in that way. Speaking of Chloe…What is she up to? Lex stood up with the intention of seeking out his lady when the phone rang. He was about to let it go to voice mail when the tingling sensation behind his neck increased. Making a quick decision, he picked up the phone… “Luthor.”

There was silence for a few seconds when a voice responded, “Mr. Luthor…Your lady friends are in danger and they need your help.” Before Lex could utter a word, the caller hung up. He stared at the phone for a moment or two as the words sank in…Chloe…She wouldn’t…

Lex quickly rushed out. “Danvers&#33; Danvers&#33;” Lex shouted as he started searching the rooms. Nothing&#33;

“Chloe&#33; Where in the hell are you? Chloe&#33;” Nothing. No one responded to his calls. The house was eerily silent. He rushed to the front, intending to check on the cars when the note caught his eye. Quickly scanning the contents, his blood pressure rose.

Lex, by the time you read this Chloe and I will be in Metropolis chasing after Roxy and Sin. Here is the address where we can be found. We’ll talk when you get here.

Delilah

P.S. – Chloe wanted to bring you but I canned the idea…Please don’t be angry with her…

Don’t be angry&#33; Has Delilah gone insane? Have they all gone insane? Damn, stubborn, crazy women…I am going to strangle each and every one of them.

Chloe…How the hell could she leave? Without him&#33; When I get my hands on her…

Lex didn’t give himself time to give into the wonderful fantasy of wringing his girlfriend’s neck. He was busy trying to find a set of available car keys. When he finally located some, he was out the door in a flash all the while praying that God would keep the woman that he loved safe and sound.

Please…

TBC...

So what do you think? Has everyone gone crazy? :ohmy:

[Clannadlvr]

Hmmm....so this is Bruce when he&#39;s first becoming Batman? If that&#39;s the case, it certainly explains why he isn&#39;t the deadly calm, cold, vigilante we&#39;ve come to see. Nice touch&#33;

tisk, tisk, on the four ladies...don&#39;t they realized that Apollo is nuts?&#33;

Please update soon&#33;

[MissMed03]

This fic is so great... I love Roxy and Sin, and I&#39;m glad you made Lana into the conniving slut that we all (at N.S. net) know and hate.

Lex loves Chloe and Chloe loves Lex and for some reason I think the master is Lionel . Maybe that&#39;s just me, but he seems like the type to get involved with someone like Apollo.

BTW, Apollo Jones... funniest name. He sounds like a mob boss from south central, LMAO&#33;

This fic is marvelous. U usually update soon, but I&#39;ll just request it again for good measure. UPDATE SOON&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

[Val]

Argh I can&#39;t believe they left without Lex&#33;
Yay fro bruce helping though&#33; Now I need an update soon and Im hoping Apollo&#39;s death is in it&#33; Damn bastard&#33; :tease:

[Lady Aquitaine]

Hi All...Sorry...Sorry...Here is the next installment. I hope you all enjoy... :biggrin:

**************

Jaded – Part 15

Chloe looked about her apprehensively as she quickly followed Delilah along the darkened streets of the Westside. The neighborhoods became progressively worse and Chloe wished for the tenth time that Delilah had not parked so far away. But Delilah wisely pointed out that driving a brand new, state of the art, black Porsche was calling needless attention to themselves.

Damn&#33; I have gone crazy&#33; That is the only explanation I have come up with for coming into this sleazy territory to meet with a pimp at his headquarters regarding a drug dealer and her prostitute friends. Insane&#33; This story was simply to fantastical to believe. It would even make a decent book.

“We’re almost there. Try and look like you belong.” Delilah paused while giving Chloe the once over. “Also try and keep a low profile. If Snake asks, I’m going to tell him you’re a working girl.” She took in Chloe’s appearance and shook her head. Delilah mussed up Chloe’s hair and opened several top buttons on Chloe’s blouse.

She even went on to pinch some color into Chloe’s pale cheeks while Chloe took a series of deep breaths. Keep it together, Chloe…she thought. This was just another research investigation.

“Don’t worry. While Snake may be a bit intimidating at first, he’s okay.” Delilah reassured smoothly although she herself was having a few doubts. She knew Snake would not hurt her but this war with Apollo was definitely not something he anticipated and it was pretty much shoved in his face. How he would react to this was anyone’s guess…

Both ladies began to walk casually as they approached a large, brown building. There were several working girls standing in front of the building while others came and went.

As Chloe got closer, her mouth dropped open. The building was definitely not what she had expected it to be for a man who calls himself the ‘Snakeman’. And this is a surprise how…Chloe asked herself silently.

“Umm…Delilah… You do know this is a funeral home.” Chloe voiced a bit uncomfortably.

“Uh…huh…I know.” Delilah muttered as she studied the comings and goings of the headquarters intently.

“Well isn’t that just peachy&#33; Not only is Lex going to kill me but I am going straight to hell&#33;” Chloe growled softly so only Delilah could hear.

“Will you stop being so melodramatic&#33;” Delilah hissed quickly.

“Melodramatic&#33; Delilah, they’ve named this place ‘The Last Hurrah’. What kind of a name is that for a funeral home? Have they no respect for the dead?” Chloe hissed back causing Delilah to chuckle at her outrage.

“Chloe, to operate from a funeral parlor is the perfect cover. The police would never think to investigate a funeral home let alone raid one.” Delilah explained quietly.

“But it is still a funeral home.” Chloe growled yet again.

“Shhh…” They had arrived at the front door. Two of the ladies looked their way suspiciously. Delilah’s face remained impassive and she was proud to note that Chloe’s face showed no emotion at all.

“Whatcha want?” One of the ladies asked as they stepped closer to Delilah giving her a strange look.

“We’re friends of Roxy and Sin. They asked us to meet them here.” Delilah said smoothly. One of the women looked Delilah over for a few minutes before turning her attention to Chloe for a few minutes. She made clucking noises with her tongue while studying Chloe.

“Don’t look like much.” The lady commented matter-of-factly. Chloe gasped, not certain whether she should be offended or relieved.

“Snakeman’s inside.” The lady informed them though still clucking in Chloe’s direction. Delilah had to pull Chloe along as Chloe was busy glaring at the lady. Delilah shook her head at Chloe and they entered the building as if they had not a care in the world.

The inside of the funeral parlor looked like what Chloe might expect a funeral parlor to look like. A large opened room was before them with dark walls and matching furniture. Chloe noticed the few coffins lying around for show and wondered if they were truly just for show.

“Delilah, please tell me there are no dead bodies in those coffins…” Chloe moaned as her very active imagination conjured coffin lids opening and zombies rising from them. I’m going to hell…

Sturdy oak chairs lined several walls while pictures of landscapes graced the walls. Several ladies of the night as well as some dangerous looking men looked up at the newcomers. The men took the time to leer in Delilah’s direction. Chloe even received a few leers herself.

Hmm… Don’t look like much, huh&#33; I still got it…Chloe thought.

In the far right of the room a man stood suddenly as his attention focused on them. The confidence he projected and the air leadership about him totally pegged him as the Snakeman. He was definitely not was Chloe thought a pimp would look like.

He was tall, broad shoulder with long dark hair that he wore tied back. He wore white shirt with dark jeans that clung snugly to him and a long black leather duster fell just below his black combat boots.

“Well…well…well…Now this is a surprise.” The Snakeman smiled as he strode forward to greet the women. Or more exactly to greet Delilah.

“Etta May…I should have known you would have shown up.” Snakeman sighed in a low voice. Chloe eyebrows shot upwards. She turned towards Delilah and struggle to hold her grin. No wonder she changed her name…

“Etta May…” Chloe began but the severe glare from Delilah cut off her remark. Chloe once again returned her attentions to the Snakeman. He seemed a lot safer at the moment.

“How many times do I have to tell you not to call me that, EUGENE?” Delilah growled. The Snakeman paled for a few minutes before he grabbed Delilah’s arm and led her away from the curious crowd. Chloe followed after them quickly clamping her lips shut while struggling to contain her laughter.

“Et- I mean Delilah…Don’t call me that&#33; I am the Snakeman and I have a reputation.” Snakeman growled back. Delilah simply snorted.

Chloe took the time to study the Snakeman as he was quietly arguing with Delilah. Obviously they knew each other well and for a pimp, he seemed kind of normal. Normal. What the hell is normal?

He was very handsome in a ‘fallen angel’ kind of way. But his eyes were his best feature as they were a deep violet-blue. She had never seen eyes quite like his. His face was strong, with high cheekbones and a strong jaw. There was something about the face that seemed familiar. Chloe turned her attention towards Delilah. She looked again at the Snakeman then at Delilah as dawning realization hit her full force.

Oh my God&#33; He’s her brother&#33; Brother&#33; Chloe forced herself to remain calm. This was certainly not what she expected. Damn&#33; A little warning could have helped.

“Etta May…As soon as you’re done, I’d like a few words with you…” Chloe interrupted the conversation.

The Snakeman turned his attention upon Chloe. To have that violet-blue gaze concentrate fully on her was a bit disconcerting. Chloe forced herself to stare back.

“And who, beautiful, are you?” Snakeman asked as a smile appeared on his face. Chloe felt as if the breath were knocked from her. Wow&#33; That was one hell of a smile.

“I-I…ah…” Chloe found that she could not concentrate. Well, that was certainly articulate…she berated herself as heat flooded her face.

“She’s a friend. Therefore off limits.” Delilah voiced quickly not liking the seductive smile Snakeman was bestowing on Chloe. That was the last thing she needed...

Snakeman’s smile turned into a slow grin as he fully concentrated upon Chloe. Chloe forced herself to remain unaffected by his actions though it was very, very hard. Mercifully for her, Snakeman turned his attentions back to his sister.

“Delilah, what have I told you about coming into this territory?” His deep voice asked hoarsely.

“I know…I know…But I’m here because of Roxy and Sin.” Delilah sighed. Chloe studied the two siblings and wondered what was going on between them. Hmm…There is definitely a story here…

“Yes…Those two…And I can’t wait to hear what they have to say.” Snakeman responded with curiosity and slight disgust.

“What do you mean by ‘you can’t wait’? Aren’t they here?” Chloe asked quickly realizing just then that Roxy and Sin were no where in sight.

“Rox and Sin aren’t here yet?” Delilah asked as realization hit her.

“No. I haven’t seen them at all.” Snakeman replied directing his gaze towards his sister. He noticed the sudden paleness on his sister’s face.

“B-But they left before we did… Delilah…” Chloe tried to get her emotions under control. Terror began to slowly spread throughout her body. Please…no…

“Dammit…Come on.” Delilah grabbed Chloe’s hand and started for the door.

“Where in the hell do you think you are going?” Snakeman’s sudden grip of Delilah’s arm stopped both of them in their tracks.

“Snake…They are my friends…” Delilah began but he cut her off with a wave of his hand.

“I know that&#33; Why do you think I put up with them? Delilah, what is going on?” Snakeman asked gruffly. Delilah was split in half as to what to do. Should she involve Snake? Would he help? Roxy and Sin… They needed any help they could get. Coming to a quick decision, Delilah slowly relayed all the events that had taken place though she had decided to leave Lex’s and Chloe’s names out of explanation.

Snakeman sensed that Delilah had not been quite upfront in her story. He frowned at her and was about to demand the full version when a slow buzzing erupted around the room as there was a commotion from outside.

From the Eastside… Shondra… Eastside girls here…

Chloe could hear the whispers amongst the men and women in the parlor. Shondra. That’s Sin’s friend. What would she be doing here?

Delilah and Chloe turned towards the doorway as a heavily bruised woman was carried in by two ladies. A chair was brought forward quickly for the beaten woman to sit on as some of the ladies started to assist her.

“Never mind me&#33;” Shondra growled. “Roxy and Sin need help&#33;” She continued as she slapped hands away from her.

“What&#33;” Delilah shrieked as she and Chloe rushed through the crowd and came to stand in front of Shondra.

“What happened?” Chloe was amazed her voice was steady when she asked this question.

“I-I met up w-with Rox and Sin on their way here.” Shondra’s voice wheezed heavily as she took in several deep breaths. “T-They wanted to g-give me and my girls a heads up on w-what was happening here. We started talking when all of sudden we were jumped by those bastards&#33;” Shondra murmured in disgust as she held her torso.

“Are you saying Apollo’s men jumped you?” Snakeman asked this question as he came up behind Delilah and Chloe.

“Was I speaking in another fucking language?” Shondra snipped back. Snakeman’s violet-blue gaze narrowed as he managed to barely hold back his anger.

“What happened to them?” Delilah intervened quickly. This was not the time for petty arguments.

“They were snatched by those assholes and left me on the street to rot. But before they left, I heard those pricks talking about taking the girls back to Eden’s.” Shondra said hoarsely as she grabbed her heard. It felt as if it were about to burst.

Chloe’s face turned even paler than before. If Apollo has them, God knows what he’s doing to her friends.

“Well… Are you going to sit on your asses all fucking day or are you going to help them?” Shondra looked up wearily in Snakeman’s direction. Snakeman frowned at the challenge in Shondra’s voice but he nodded his agreement.

“Give me ten minutes while I gather some men.” He said to Delilah and Chloe quickly before he suddenly started to shout orders. Everyone in the room scampered back and forth. Soon five, six, seven men were gathered in the hall with more still arriving.

Chloe nerves were a bit frayed as things were progressing beyond what she imagined. God, how she wished Lex was with her. Why did she ever leave him behind? Stupid…Stupid…Shit…Okay…Calm down…Mental breakdown can wait until later…

“Dee…Maybe you should…” Snakeman began but Delilah and Chloe both viciously shook their heads and glared at him.

“We are both going and there’s not a damned thing you can say about it.” Delilah’s voice was laced with steely determination that the Snakeman could not refute.

“Fucking Hell&#33; All right…Just stay low&#33;” Snakeman growled back as he and his small army headed out the door. Delilah and Chloe hurried to keep up. Eden’s Gate was about to receive a lot of unwelcome visitors.

*******************
Eden’s Gate…

“Apollo? Apollo…Man wake the fuck up&#33;” Someone shouted at him. Apollo heard the voice from far away. He was still flying high on his Gold he was loathe to let the rush go.

“Apollo…We got them whores downstairs. Man wake the fuck up&#33;” the voice shouted again.

“Forget it, Rone. Man’s to fucked up to care.” Another voice called out. Rone looked at his boss in disgust. Fucking piece of shit&#33;

“What are we going to do with them bitches?” the other voice questioned quickly.

“Just keep them until Apollo wakes his sorry ass up. Fuck&#33; Asshole can’t wait until everything’s over to fry himself. Shit&#33; Come on, Koug, let’s tell the boys to lay off them. We need them alive for Apollo to question.” Rone ordered uncomfortably. The last guy who tried giving orders that Apollo didn’t agree with got himself shot.

“Lay off&#33; Are you fucking shitting me? The boys hadn’t even had a taste of them whores. You want them to lay the fuck off?” Koug asked in shock.

“That’s what I said. And if they die before Apollo can talk to them, then the fucking boys can tell Apollo why the whores are fucking dead.” Rone remarked snidely.

“But Apollo said we could do whatever we want to them sluts.” Kougar voiced again.

“I know that shitbag&#33; But Apollo still hasn’t found the rich fuck or his two cunts&#33; And he said the whores know where they are…So since they are here, Apollo can get to personally question them. Now quit fucking questioning me and let’s go.”

“Shit&#33; All right&#33; But after Apollo’s done questioning…I get the first taste…” Koug growled. And with some further grumbling Koug followed Rone out of the office.

*****************
The Car

“Sir…We have another situation.” Alfred voice came over the small screen in the dashboard of his car.

“What is it? I’m almost there.” Bruce asked increasing his speed.

“Well sir, you may want to change direction. It seems a large group left the coordinates and are now traveling in a direction due south. From my calculations, I’d say they were heading to Eden’s Gate.” Alfred informed.

Bruce Wayne cursed quickly as he banged a u-turn and headed south. He was twenty-five minutes away from the club.

“A large group?” Bruce questioned as raced through a series of red lights.

“Yes, sir. We still can’t confirm what happened but this large group seemed heavily armed and two of the ladies were in this group.” Alfred said gathering as much information as possible.

“So, my guess would be that this is a war about to break. And the first two ladies who left? Do we know where they might be?” Bruce asked but Alfred shook his head.

“No sir. I’m afraid we lost touch with them.”

“Keep trying all of our resources. They must be somewhere. And Lex? Where is he at the moment?” Bruce swerved the car quickly to avoid hitting a transit bus.

“He left Smallville a half hour ago. He should be arriving in Metropolis in about twenty minutes. Add another ten minutes to reach his destination which is surprisingly the same as yours.” Alfred informed while keying information into his computer.

“Alfred, have you been tapping into Lex’s GPS computer again?” Bruce asked in amusement.

“Guilty as charged, Sir.” Alfred allowed a small smile to grace his face.

“Well…Keep an eye out for him…I have a feeling he’ll head my way soon after he arrives. Alfred, can you also try and find out what happened to spur on this large group.”

“Yes sir. I am gathering the information. As soon as I receive the news I shall inform you immediately. Until then…Good Luck.” Alfred signed off.

Thanks… I’m definitely going to need it…Bruce whispered at the blank screen.

TBC...

[Lady Aquitaine]

Hi All... Here is the next installment...I hope you all enjoy...

*************

Jaded – Part 16

The Last Hurrah...

“What do you mean they are not here? Where in the hell have they gone?” Lex asked trying to keep as tight a leash on his temper as he possibly could. What is it with these women? Does Chloe want to kill me? Is that it?

His legendary patience was gone and it did not help matters that his fear had become unbearable when he glanced at the beaten woman who was being assisted by her fellow ladies of the night.

“Exactly what I said. They…ain’t…here&#33; So take your prissy attitude out the fucking door&#33;” One of the ladies responded not the least bit intimidated by Lex Luthor.

His blue-gray eyes narrowed in frustration and he ran a frustrated hand over his bald head. Damn&#33; These women were not talking. He needed to find Chloe soon. His sense of urgency doubled within the last ten minutes.

Dammit, Chloe…You had better be all right…You better be…

“I just need to find out where they have gone. Is there any information you could give me? I’ll give you two hundred dollars if you tell me.” Lex pulled out his wallet and withdrew two crisp one hundred dollar bills. A calculating gleam glowed in the dark eyes of the woman.

“Make it five c-notes and you have yourself a deal.” the woman responded with a grin. Lex looked at the woman long and hard. He was desperate and she knew it. Opening his wallet again, Lex extracted three more crisp bills.

“Wait a sec…You’re that guy…” Shondra spoke up at last. When Shondra spotted the rich white boy she immediately passed him off as another john. But things began to click in her mind once he started asking question about the two girls that left with Snakeman.

“Excuse me?” Lex asked glad his attention was diverted from the rude woman before him though he made sure to keep a tight grip on his cash.

“You’re him. Shit&#33; I should have known. No one who looked like you would make a big stink about some working girls.” Shondra grinned suddenly.

“Fuck&#33; I almost had it.” The rude woman growled. She made sure to give Shondra a glare but Shondra never noticed as her attention was completely taken by Lex.

“Yeah&#33; Sin told me all about you. Hey ladies, this is the rich boy that kicked Apollo’s ass a few days ago.” Shondra’s voice seemed to echo in the now quiet room as she made her statement. All the women suddenly forgot what they were doing as all eyes focused on Lex.

“That was my doing.” Lex responded proudly. He was normally not a man given to violence but the bastard touched Chloe and deserved the beating and more.

“Wait…I remember…Dix was spreading it around…You beat up that piece of shit because he hurt your girl, right?” Another woman questioned.

“That’s so fucking sweet.” Another woman sighed. All the women in the room now closed in a bit on Lex and he became nervous for a few seconds.

“Yes, Apollo drugged then beat my girlfriend. I’m just glad I found her when I did.” Though it was true, Lex added the last sentence figuring if it got him the information he wanted…

A series of Awww’s sounded throughout the room.

“So what are you doing here asking about the two girls that left with Snake?” Another woman asked.

“One of the women is my girlfriend and the other is her friend. I’m trying to find them and keep them safe but they are making it very hard for me.” Lex murmured disgustedly.

Another chorus’ of Awww’s went throughout the room and Lex almost rolled his eyes. Shondra had studied Lex intently for a few minutes. She found that she was impressed by him which a very hard thing to do. Shondra’s been a working girl for years and her opinion of the opposite sex was not the nicest.

“Okay…I’ll tell you what you want to know, rich boy…But don’t make me regret it.” She paused to give Lex a hard stare. At his nod, she continued, “They went to Eden’s.” Shondra informed him.

The shock on Lex’s face must have shone because Shondra quickly went on to explain what had taken place before he arrived.

“You’ll find your lady and her friend there. But you had better hurry. Snakeman does not stop to ask questions. Especially when he has a gun in his hand.” Shondra said. Lex paled at the thought of Chloe being caught in a gun battle. What if…No&#33; Can’t think of that&#33;

“Thank you.” Lex said quickly, flashed a grateful smile and quickly placed the money in Shondra’s hands. He was out the door before she could say anything.

Only one thought clouded his mind…Please… Do not let anything happen to her&#33;

****************
Eden’s Gate…

Pop. Pop. Pop. Chloe and Delilah were currently hiding behind one of the fallen tables close to the entrance of the club. Snakeman and the others were spread out sporadically and involved in heavy gun fire with Apollo’s men. Chaos and madness seemed to reign.

Upon arrival, Snakeman divided his group up into three parts. Two parts would enter the club via the escape exits while the main part would enter via the front entrance.

Snakeman’s plan was basically to shoot first and questions could be damned. Chloe tried to speak up about this ridiculous plan but Delilah intervened.

“Don’t&#33; It’s the way it works down here. Let Snake handle Apollo’s men. We’ll find Rox and Sin and get them out of there.” Delilah whispered.

“What if…What if they…” Chloe couldn’t finish the words. The thought was too horrible to imagine yet now it flooded her mind.

“NO&#33; We will not think like that. Rox and Sin are okay. We just have to get to them. Got it&#33;” Delilah said firmly. Chloe nodded her head and hardened her resolved. Delilah’s right…Now was definitely not the time to start losing it…

Pop&#33; Pop&#33; Pop&#33; Another volley of shots seemed to fly over them. They were stuck behind a table waiting for the shots to slacken off a bit. Chloe could hear the cries of pain as if they were yelled into her ear. Bodies went flying everywhere as men fought each other.

“We have got to do something. We just can’t sit here.” Chloe shouted above all the noise.

“Follow me.” Delilah shouted back as she pointed towards the bar. Crawling on all fours, Delilah led the way slowly with Chloe following behind. With a scream both women fell to the floor as shots rang out above them. Chloe could hear them whizzing by her head.

“Are you okay?” Delilah shouted. Chloe simply nodded. Words were beyond her at the moment. She had to keep moving. It was the only way she could get through this.

Both women crawled towards their destination when Chloe felt something fall on her causing her to loose her balance. She crashed to floor with a heavy weight on top of her.

“Delilah&#33;” Chloe yelled as she struggled to wiggle out from under the weight but found that it was not budging. A bloodied hand appeared before her face. Fuck&#33; This is not happening&#33; Please tell me I don’t have a dead man on my back&#33;

“Delilah&#33; Help me&#33;” Chloe shrieked as repulsion and bile spread within her.

Delilah hearing the cry, turned and her violet eyes widened. What in the world?

She crawled over to her and tried to pry the body of Chloe. It wouldn’t move. The body must way over 250 pounds.

“Delilah, this asshole is too heavy and I can’t breathe. Hurry&#33;” Chloe gasped as she tried to move the body from her. Delilah tried to push him off Chloe but it wouldn’t budge.

“Chloe, we’ll push him together on three.” At Chloe’s nod, Delilah started to count. “One…Two…Three…” Chloe pushed upwards with all her strength while Delilah pulled. It still wouldn’t budge.

“Chloe…One more time…This time I’m going to come around from the other side.” Chloe nodded weakly. Delilah counted again and both women pushed with all their might. The body finally budged and Delilah quickly pulled it off Chloe. Chloe gratefully heaped in lungfuls of air.

“You okay?” Delilah asked. Chloe nodded. “Come on…We have to keep moving.” Delilah yelled. Chloe nodded again and they once again made their way towards the bar. A crash before them stopped them quickly.

Two men crashed into one of the tables. They were both wrestling with a gun. Delilah quickly stood up and yanked Chloe with her. She did not want to be around when that gun went off. They ran towards the bar.

“Wait…There…By the VIP booths…What’s that?” Chloe stopped quickly pointing in the direction of the booths. Delilah focused her gaze on it. Through the mess of it all she saw two bodies lying unmoving on the floor. One of the bodies had Roxy’s distinct bleached blonde hair.

“NO&#33; Please…” Delilah yelled as she bolted in the direction of the booths with Chloe right behind her.

****************

Pop&#33; Pop&#33; Pop&#33; Apollo groggily came awake at the sound. Pop&#33; Pop&#33; What was that? He thought as he tried to shake off the confusion that clouded his mind. The effects of the Gold were fading slightly and he was tempted to shoot up again.

Pop&#33; Pop&#33; Pop&#33; Fuck&#33; Those were gunshots&#33; Here? Can’t be… Pop &#33; Pop&#33; Realization of what was going on hit him. His club. Gun fire in his club. What the fuck?

Apollo rose unsteadily to his feet. He walked towards his desk and switched on the monitor. The screen came to life and his silver eyes widened at the mess his club had turned into.

Shit&#33; He watched as his men fought with men unknown to him. Who in the hell would fucking dare? Damn&#33;

Opening his top draw of his desk, he pulled out a silver 9mm barretta. Making certain it was fully loaded, he walked out of his office with gun in hand. His club was overrun by assholes and it was obviously up to him to fix the fucking mess.

****************

Chloe and Delilah reached their two friends within minutes. Chloe checked on Roxy while Delilah checked on Sin. As soon as Chloe reached Roxy, she nearly cried. Roxy was unrecognizable with all the black bruises and cuts to her face.

Chloe softly pulled Roxy’s blonde hair away from her face. “Rox…” she whispered finding her throat suddenly closed off. Please God, let them be okay… I-I can’t lose my friends…

Chloe ripped off a piece of material from her shirt and began to wipe off the blood and dirt that covered Roxy’s face. Roxy stirred slightly, causing her to smile.

“Rox&#33; Rox, it me&#33;” Chloe said in a much stronger voice. Roxy heard the familiar voice from far away and managed a smile/grimace. She should have known.

“Chlo…” Roxy managed weakly and tears sprang into Chloe’s eyes. Chloe nodded quickly. Realizing Roxy couldn’t see her acknowledgement she spoke hoarsely “Yeah&#33; It’s Chlo…”

Roxy opened one eye slowly as the other was swollen shut. Her brown gaze focused on the blonde before her. “Damn, you’re stubborn.” Roxy whispered.

“Damn right&#33; Now don’t try to move. Delilah’s checking on Sin and…” Chloe started but stopped quickly when Roxy started to move.

“Sin…She got the worst of it. Chlo…we have to get her help…” Roxy inhaled sharply as a pain so intense settled into her ribs. She cried out and fell back unable to move.

“Rox&#33; I told you to fucking stay still&#33;” Chloe growled. She gingerly touched the area that Roxy was holding. Roxy flinched a few times but Chloe was relentless in her examination. Broken. Her ribs were broken. Chloe couldn’t tell how many though. Roxy was going to need a stretcher. How?

Chloe looked in Delilah’s direction. Delilah was speaking softly to Sin. A small smile graced her face when Sin replied to something she said. How were they going to get their friends out of here? Chloe thought. Delilah’s eyes met hers and within them Chloe could see the same questions. Chloe looked around her area. There must be something. Think&#33;

Suddenly a shadow fell upon both women. Chloe heard Delilah cry out and quickly turned in her direction. Delilah was slumped over Sin. Blood was streaming from her hair, down her forehead. Oh my God&#33;

“Delilah&#33;” Chloe yelled but her yell turned into a scream as a sudden fire sprang throughout her head. Chloe felt her hair being yanked and her head was viciously pulled back. Familiar gleaming silver eyes met hers. A cruel and evil smile appeared on his face causing shivers of fear to race throughout her body.

No…

“Well…well…well…” Apollo said as he jerked her head back even further. “Look what I found&#33;”

TBC...

**********************

Jaded – Part 17

Eden’s Gate…

Apollo Jones could not believe his luck when his silver eyes fell upon the blonde who was the cause of all his troubles. Chloe Sullivan was here, within his reach and he almost laughed with delight.

The little bitch…Mine…All mine…

When he arrived downstairs his intention had been to shoot as many assholes as he possibly could. But all that changed with the appearance of one little blonde.

Walking in her direction, anticipation burned within him. The anticipation of hearing her scream in pain was almost as good as any rush he’s gotten with the Gold and he couldn’t wait. He finally reached his prey and with the butt of his gun he pistol whipped Delilah in the head and used the same butt on Chloe then reached out to grab a handful of soft hair. The fear in her eyes as she recognized her attacker, inflamed him even more. He was actually rock hard as he saw her fear grow.

“Well…well…well…” Apollo said as he jerked her head back even further. “Look what I found&#33;”

He yanked her back viciously and dragged her with him towards the elevator. Apollo noticed a thick greenish fog had formed but he didn’t pay any attention to it. He had better things to concentrate on. Chloe tried to free herself but the hold on her head was too painful.

When the doors opened, Apollo shoved Chloe hard against the wall. Her back cried out in agony as the breath was knocked out of her by the impact and his hand closed around her throat. He pressed his face closer to hers.

“This is all your fault, bitch&#33;” Apollo growled low. Chloe tried to speak but his hand on her throat tightened. Her fist connected with Apollo’s face and she had a brief satisfaction of seeing his head whip backwards. His hands tightened even more.

“You’re going to pay for that and for all the shit you have caused.” Pain exploded in her head as he banged the back of her head painfully against the wall.

Chloe’s world was starting to go black with lack of air. Got to hang on…she thought.

The doors opened and Apollo threw her out of the elevator. She landed painfully on the floor a few feet away, gasping for air.

Have to get… Chloe moaned as she started to slowly crawl away…

“Where do you think you’re going? The fun’s just starting.” He grinned as he moved to grab her.

****************

Bruce Wayne arrived into bedlam. Those were the only appropriate words for the chaos and madness that had taken over the club. Since his prototype was not ready, he decided to make due with dark clothing. He checked his long coat for all the hidden gadgets he had taken as well as a black 9mm. He made certain to wear a bullet proof vest under his black shirt and his black pants clung to him snugly just as he liked. Before entering the club, he put on a black ski mask to cover his identity.

Looking around, Bruce shook his head. I’ve got to do something about this…he thought.

He took out some vials filled with a greenish liquid and threw one of the vials into a crowd of fighting men. The vial smashed into little pieces and from it, a greenish smoke arose and a dense fog soon formed. Bruce threw two more vials in opposite directions creating the same effect.

Soon men became disconcerted and confused by the thick fog. Suddenly the sound of sirens could be heard softly and shouts of “Five O” quickly spread throughout the club. Men began to race from the club as if it was on fire.

“Five O&#33; Five O&#33;” The shouts continued. Bruce smiled as he placed a small but very powerful tape player on one of the still upright tables. This should do the trick nicely…

Now to begin his search… Putting on a pair of night vision goggles that allowed him to see clearly through the fog, Bruce began to scan the area. Where are they? Alfred had reported that none of the ladies had left the club.

He continued his scan the club when his dark eyes widened. Bruce adjusted his goggles to get a clearer view. Apollo was dragging a blonde by the hair into the elevator. Damn&#33;

He took off immediately for the elevators but was too late. The doors had closed before he was halfway. When he finally reached the doors, he looked up to see which floor the elevator stopped on. It was on the last floor.

He raced up the stairs two at a time all the while praying that he was not too late.

*************

Chloe knew she had to get away from Apollo. She tried to stand up but found it impossible. She felt his hands as they grabbed at her shirt and she lashed out with her foot. It connected with solid flesh causing his hands to quickly come off her. Chloe turned to look and saw Apollo kneeling on the floor holding his crotch. She grinned when she realized that she kicked him in the balls. Bastard&#33;

Get out of here&#33; She yelled quickly to herself and could have cheerfully hurt herself for the precious lost seconds. Chloe ran down the length of the floor searching for some means of escape. Too late. She realized that the stairs heading back towards the dance floor were on the opposite side of Apollo. That would mean she’d have to double back and pass him. An option that she did not have. No&#33; Must move on…

Each door she passed was locked and when she put her shoulder to them they refuse to budge. Damn&#33; She continued running. Finally, she spotted a set of stairs the led upwards. When she closed in she noticed that the stairs led to a catwalk and the catwalk spanned the length of the club horizontally to the other side. Chloe raced faster than her legs have ever traveled. Her breathing had become harsh and a painful stitch developed at her side but she forced herself to keep running.

Closer…Almost there…If I can get to the other side…

Suddenly a hand closed around her arm and yanked her viciously backwards. Chloe lost her footing and she crashed to her knees painfully. With the crash, Apollo found that he too, lost his footing and tripped over Chloe’s form.

He fell a few feet away from her and tried to grab her feet. Chloe kicked out at him and her foot connected again with solid flesh. This time she connected with his face. Apollo recoiled in pain as he heard a crack from the area around his nose.

Fuck&#33; The little bitch broke my nose&#33;

Chloe didn’t waste time lying there. She got up again and ran for the stairs leading to the catwalk. Taking the stairs as fast as she could she found herself on a very narrow catwalk. Chloe looked down towards the dance floor. It was a long way down. Run&#33; Quit dawdling…

Chloe ran. She was half way to the other side when again Apollo grabbed at her. She managed to escape his grip but as she ran over some loose wires one of them caught in her feet and she trip on the wires. She fell hard to the floor of the catwalk. Apollo’s hand gripped her arm painfully as he forced her to stand upright. Chloe lashed out with her fists and legs. She was definitely not going to make it easy for him.

“Asshole&#33; Dickless wonder&#33;” Chloe shouted as she fought her attacker.

“Cheap slut&#33;” Apollo growled as he tried to pin her arms down but she proved surprisingly strong.

“Let her go&#33;”

*******************

Lex arrived at the club and wondered what in the hell was going on? Men were fleeing the scene as if demons were on their heels. He ran into the club and was momentarily taken aback by the thick fog within the club. He began to scan the club but found that nothing could penetrate the fog. Shit&#33;

“Chloe&#33; Chloe&#33;” He shouted her name. He moved into the club slowly careful not to trip on fallen men. Damn&#33; How am I going to find her?

“Chloe&#33;” He yelled once again. Once the club was drained of men, it became eerily silent. What the hell happened? Where is she?

Suddenly a gun shot shattered the silence followed a few moments later by a piercing scream. Lex looked around but saw nothing. Another scream broke through. Chloe&#33;

The scream sounded as if it were coming from up above. Lex looked upwards and paled at what he saw.

“Chloe&#33;” He yelled as he rushed up the stairs.

*****************

“Who in the fuck are you?” Apollo turned quickly and yelled at the stranger in the black ski mask. The blonde in his arms still fought him but he managed to restrain her by placing her in front of him and holding a gun to her head.

“I said let her go.” Bruce said calmly. He slowly edged forward. Apollo’s hold on Chloe tightened causing her to cry out softly.

“Why the fuck should I do that?” Apollo laughed evilly. Bruce noticed Apollo’s silver eyes were gleaming with a maniacal light. So…Apollo had completely succumbed to insanity…

“Because if you don’t, your death will be very, very painful.” Bruce responded brutally. He understood that men like Apollo spoke and respected violence.

“You’ve got balls. I have to say that. But, I’m going to have to say no.” Apollo responded before he fired the gun. Bruce managed to duck and roll in time and felt the bullet whiz by him.

Chloe couldn’t help but scream. NO&#33; I have to do something&#33; Taking advantage of the fact that Apollo seemed to be preoccupied with the stranger, Chloe stomped her foot painfully down on Apollo’s foot. That brought the desired effect. Apollo’s grip on her loosened and she used that to elbow him painfully in the ribs. The breath was knocked out of him. Chloe tried to run but he still had hold of her.

“Stupid bitch&#33;” He wheezed. She began to fight him in earnest. Bruce stood up and rushed towards the fighting couple when he noticed that the catwalk was not a place to hold a fight and it shifted suddenly causing everyone to lose their balance.

Because of the shift, Chloe and Apollo lost their balance and both fell suddenly forwards towards the railing. Chloe tried to grab onto the railing but with Apollo’s weight crashing into her she felt herself go over the railing.

Bruce watched in horror as the struggling couple fell over. The blood drained quickly from his face in shock. NO&#33; He rushed quickly over to the spot and looked over the railing. The blood managed to rush back into his face. Chloe was holding onto the wires that had been kicked over the side in her struggle with Apollo while Apollo was holding onto her feet.

“Please…” She whispered. Chloe could barely say a word so great was her fear.

I don’t want to die&#33; Lex&#33; I haven’t told him how much I love him. I can’t die without telling him that&#33;

Apollo’s hold on Chloe’s feet was slipping. NO&#33; This was not how he was supposed to go out. Chloe tried to kick her feet away but found that her grip on the wires slipped once she struggled. She quickly stopped any movement.

Apollo’s grip on her feet slipped again until he was barely hanging on. If I go, I’m taking the little bitch with me. He tried to grip her foot tighter but in doing that his grip finally slipped and Apollo Jones, owner of Eden’s Gate and drug dealer, fell four flights towards his death. As he hurtled towards his death one thought was preeminent in him mind…the blonde bitch had managed to beat him and he landed with a thud on the dance floor of his precious club.

Chloe’s grip on the wire began to slip. Burns were scorched into her hands but she refused to let go.

“Hang on Chloe&#33; You can do it.” She yelled at herself as her arms began to burn with the strain of holding on.

“You’re going to see Lex. You’re going to tell him that you love him with all your heart&#33;” Chloe yelled aloud but cried when her bloody and sweaty grip on the wire slipped even more.

I love you, Lex&#33; I always have and I always will. I love you&#33;

Chloe cried silently as her grip finally gave out. She felt herself fall through the air. LEEEEEXXXX&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

Suddenly strong arms gripped her around the waist and she felt herself suddenly stop in mid air. “I’ve got you.” A deep voice whispered in her ear and Chloe gratefully pressed herself tighter to the man holding her.

Bruce had only a few seconds to react when he saw the blonde fall. He quickly took out a gun with a clamp on the end. Attached to this clamp was a thin wire he had especially made. It was designed to hold over five hundred pounds yet still weigh no more than a regular handgun. He fired the clamp at a secured beam and once it was tied he propelled himself over the edge. Because of the way he was falling he caught up with the blonde quickly and caught her with his right arm while his left hand gripped the gun in a tight hold.

He paused for a few seconds to gather his thoughts.

“I need you to grab onto me and don’t let go. I need both hands for what I’m about to do. Can you do this?” At the blonde’s nod, he waited while she secured herself onto him.

“All set.” Chloe simply nodded again not able to speak. Bruce let go and quickly dug into his pockets where he took out another gun similar to the one he was holding. He fired it towards a wall on the other side. When it connected, Bruce pressed a button to recoil the wire and soon both, Chloe and him, were whizzing through the air in a matter of seconds. They landed safely onto one of the floors.

A few minutes passed before Chloe could move. Bruce had stabilized her on her feet but she found she couldn’t let go. He held onto her while the panic attack she was experiencing subsided. Chloe finally got a grip on her emotions and pulled away.

“T-Thank y-you.” She said in a shaky voice. Lex. Have to find Lex…

“You’re welcome.” The deep voice responded. Chloe looked up into the face of her savior. It was completely covered up by the ski mask except for the eyes. They were dark, intense yet friendly as they gazed down at her.

“W-Who are you?” Chloe asked.

“A friend.” Bruce responded with a smile underneath the mask. Chloe could hear the smile in his voice. She was about to ask him another question when a familiar voice called out.

“Chloe&#33;” She turned and saw Lex running up the stairs towards her. He was the most wonderful sight she had ever seen and without a second thought, Chloe found herself running towards his him and into his outstretched arms.

Lex wrapped his arms around her tightly. Never was he going to let go. She was safe. When he had seen her dangling in the air, his heart almost gave out.

“Chloe…” Now that he had her in his arms, he found that he could barely speak. His emotions were so great that they threatened to overwhelm him.

“I thought…I didn’t think…” Chloe began to sob. She was in Lex’s arms. She was in his arms and she never wanted to leave them.

“Shhh…Hush…I’ve got you…” Lex whispered soothingly as he placed his chin on her head. Chloe tried to stop her crying but the more she tried to stop the more she found herself sobbing even more.

“Sweetheart…shhh…It’s okay…You’re safe…” Lex soothed. After a few minutes, she finally calmed down a bit to pulled away slightly and looked up into his beautiful face.

“I love you. Lex. I love you so much&#33; I thought I would die before I told you…” Lex quickly quieted her with his lips. The kiss was so sweet and tender that Chloe felt tears roll down her cheeks again. His lips felt like heaven. A heaven that only Lex could create. She kissed him back with all the love and passion she felt. He pulled away slightly to settle his forehead against hers. He breathed in her scent, loving the feel of her against him as he loosened his hold on her.

“Never leave me again&#33;” His voice shook as he made this statement. Chloe nodded her head before she pressed herself tightly against him. She loved him so much and she was never, ever going to let him go.

TBC…

So what do you think? :yay:

PHEW&#33;&#33; YEY for Bruce... yey for revealed feelings.... Yey, Apollo is dead&#33; :biggrin: :dance:

[vardaquareien]

Wow&#33; Action packed and romance all rolled up in one chappy&#33;&#33;&#33; Great Job&#33;

I love the way Bruce is pre-Batman. He is only just becoming what he is destined to become.

The way Chloe&#39;s thought&#39;s were only of Lex as she was about to fall was just beautiful&#33;&#33;&#33; He was the only thing that she could think about, and the fact that she loved him...awwwwww&#33; :wub:

...and the bastard Apollo got what was coming to him&#33;&#33;&#33; :yay3: Whoooo-hoooooooo&#33;

[scifichick774]

Yay Bruce&#33; Man, I love him. But you know, even though he&#39;s the hero and all that, I&#39;ve got to say how proud I was of Chloe for fighting Apollo the whole time. Seems like in the comics, the victim (if she&#39;s a woman) only puts up a fight for the first few minutes and is then overpowered - which is lame. Nicely done. More soon please.
