Thursday

---

My palms were sweaty as i drove through the gates of the Shadow walker mansion. I gazed at my reflection cocking my head to one side. My blonde hair was transformed and i was now a black head. No length was taken off but just extensions to make my hair a little more bigger and well curled. I climbed out of my car looking down at my outfit. For my first counsel 'meeting' i did not fancied myself up; i went quite the opposite wearing a pair of black jeans that stopped at my ankles, black combat boots. A white misfit shirt that tugged around my waist with a sliver belt around it. And how can i forget the black widow chain around my neck.

Licking my lips i knocked a several amount of times before a man opened it. "Black widow." He whispered lowering his head. "I am Master Danny."

I held up my hand with my brow arched. "Please, Maxine and don't lower you head to me, i am not God." I stated. He gave a soft laugh and shook my hand gracefully. "Thank you Danny." I whispered as he opened the door for me. Hello Shadow walkers. "Where is Andrew?"

"Awaiting." He mumbled waiving through to the dining hall. "So is the others." Seemed i was a tad bit late for my part. I walked in great hall as my breathed hitched. Oh dear. There they all sat. I gulped hard giving a tight smile to each one. "Here." Danny snapped startling me leading me to the end of the table. Why am i at the end?

Andy walked in but stopped dead in his tracks seeing me. I could not help but give a small smile to him. He lowered his head and chuckled softly sitting way, way, way across from me. "Alright lets get this fucking meeting started." Ella interjected walking in with a glass of wine. "Maxine you look dashing,"

"Thank you." I nodded crossing my arms on the table. Everyone seemed at ease with their self. Jake, Christian and Danny was seated on my left as Jinxx, Ashley and some dude i don't know was on my right. Wait am i the only girl here? Well plus Ella. I looked up seeing Andy leaning back in his 'Game of thrones' Chair circling his finger to and fro on the large black table gazing at me.

"Lets get the shit out of the way." Ella grumbled. I had to admit, each one of them were handsome as hell. Well Andy for me was extra ordinary. "Alex." Who. "Any damages?"

The guy's name who i know knew Alex stood up and flipped his hair back making me arch my brow and making Andy give a soft laugh. "fifty eight million." He said dryly.

Fifty eight million worth of damages? What kind of damages? "Oh wow, that's minor." Ella breathed in relieve. That kind of amount is minor? Are they shitting me? "Gentleman.This is Maxine Jones, but call her Black Widow. She will be my heir." She placed her hand on my shoulder caressing it smoothly. "New-York editor in chief, her mother is the senator, and of course she has a perfect record." She directly turn to me. "How do you treat your employees?"

"Uh... they don't like me cause i speak the truth i treat most of the them like crap." I admitted. "They think i am in my position cause i used to date one of the best lawyers in New-York and that my mother is a senate. Needless to say i do have a degree journalism from Columbia. And a black belt in torture."

Ella shivered as closed her eyes. "A woman after my own heart." She cooed making the dominants looked at her like she was insane. "Max you are the black widow, treat them," she waved to the dominants. "Like crap, i honestly don't care what-"

"I want to disband rule 54 from the book." Andy groaned standing up.

Huh? "You joking!" Ashley bellowed turning to me and than back to Andy.

Jake's eyes light up and so did Ella's. "Really sir?" Jake asked with a laugh. "That's amazing."

"You have to have a reason Master Black." Alex the cool and calm one said sipping on his whiskey. "A valid one." Who the hell is this douche.

"Because of her." Everyone turned to me as Andy pointed. Oh dear. "Because i want her."

"This is absurd!"

Screaming began to wonder down the table making me all dizzy. Ella leaned in and kissed my cheek softly. "You can do whatever you like. So show me i did not make the wrong choice." It was more than a warning. A finger trailed down my chain to the spider. "You are Queen not them."

Son of a bitch. I slowly stood up pushing my chest out. "I am so scared its not even funny." I said to myself before grabbing Jake's glass throwing it hard on the wall. "Enough." Everyone stopped with shocked expression. "Now, please stop yelling you are making me loose my calm." I breathed brushing my hair back. "Lets get one thing straight here okay; even though i am new and whatever i am entailed to disband all of you just for a fun, and don't make me spite you just out of principle. So shimmer down before i throw another glass and this time it will not be on the wall but your face." I gulped hard turning to Ella who has a look of approval on her expression.

"Black widow what do you think we should do about the submissive's disobeying or in fact sleeping with other dominants?' Christian said with a small smile. Is he trying to make me scared of in fact run away, cause that's exactly what i am feeling now.

Uh.... "I have met one; a sub if you say. And it came under my consideration that there is men who can't behave, the subs are behaving better than you. There is a thing called talking to one another, understanding. Yes this is a BDSM club. But what you and your sub have is also a fucking relationship. You idiots don't get that. Its all about fuck fuck fuck- Can i get some water please."

Just like that Juliet came in handing me a glass of water. "Mistress."

"Another thing," i grabbed her hand pushing her to me. "I have made friends here, Juliet here is one them." She lowered her head and gave a small smile. "Don't call me Mistress, don't call me malady or whatever because i am not old. Call me Black widow in front of guests, but in the streets or in public," i turned to Ashley. "Its Maxine. Or Max. You can go now Juliet." She gave a nod and walked out. "Some of you don't like me.I agree, i am not a very likable person but rest a sure that i am your new boss, and i am intending to beat the living shit out of you if you if you disobey me. And i only have one rule. Just one." I leaned on my hands gazing at each one them. "If your sub use the safe word; you comply. I don't want bleeding noses, black eyes or any bruises on the girls. They are human not animals. Are we understood?" No one answered. "Do you want me to suck venom into you cause ya know i am the black widow."

"We understand." They all said. "Black widow the party is tomorrow." Danny interjected.

"I will not be attending. Andrew is still the 'King' as you say he will arrange everything."

"I am not." He mumbled leaving with 'what' expression. "I will be joining Miss. Jones this weekend in Southampton." You are inviting yourself? To meet my entire family? Are you insane.

"I am still here this weekend so i will take over." Ella said with a huge smile on her face. "Adjourned them." She whispered.

Uh how? "Get the hell out of my sight." I said, All stood up and walked out of the room. I crashed down on the seat holding my head in my hands. "I was so mean."

"You are a dominant. You have to be." I looked up seeing Jake still sitting there with a small smile. "Good job Max." He grabbed my hand and kissed it softly. "And thank you for you know Ella and me."

"Of course anything for you." He gave a nod and walked out. I looked up seeing Andy gazing at me with his head cocked to one side. "I sucked."

"You kinda did." He laughed. "But you scared them. I am impressed."

"So you are coming with me this weekend." I breathed biting the bottom of my lip.

"Yes, you were planning to invite me when we were in my office, But you stopped. Why?"

"I thought you would say no." I admitted blushing crimson. "Cause we are not together,"

He gave a chuckle and removed a large black book, he flipped through the pages removing his pen from his trouser pants. Slowly crossing out something he closed the book. "We are now."
