#WeWriWa Teaser 6 - Naughty Fairy Tale #8sunday Jack and the Jean Stock


Here's the next 9 from Jack and the Jean Stock. Last week, we left poor Jack with a gun pressed to his ribs. Here's what happens next ...

A quick blast of a siren rent the air, followed by red and blue lights swirling across the brick walls in the alleyway. It was enough to send the dealer sprinting down the backstreet into the darkness, leaving Jack to face the consequences alone.
 

“Fuck!” Jack hung his head and pocketed the goods. He stood stalk still as he heard the cruiser pull up, blocking the alley.
 

He heard the car door open and braced himself for whatever might come next.
 

“Freeze, hairball.”

Instinctively, he put up his hands. 

From behind, a large, hairy knuckled hand encircled his wrist and yanked one arm behind his back.




Blurb:


Strapped for cash and drowning in his ailing mother’s medical debt, the one bright spark in Jack Castor’s life is working his dream job for a specialty clothing manufacturer that caters to large men. Although his personal life is all but nonexistent, career-wise, he thrives under the tutelage of his friend and father-like mentor, Cronus Gigandet, a gigantic man with a heart to match. But when Cronus dies suddenly, the company’s future is thrown into uncertainty.


Titan Gigandet, Cronus’ wayward son, a giant of a man in his own right, is furious when he learns his father has included his upstart protégé, Jack, in his will, leaving him equal shares in the family-run factory. Reluctantly, Titan rescinds his own self-imposed exile and returns to a company in turmoil.
 
The gloves come off, and the major players fight for control. With the shareholder’s agreement about to run out, decisions concerning the business need to be made, and quick. But Jack and Titan clash at every turn. The pair is so at odds, the quarrels rapidly become physical, but fists soon give way to angry, forbidden kisses. Though the blazing new attraction does nothing to quell the antagonism or distrust between them.
 
While battling to save the company, Jack’s mother takes a turn for the worse. Just when it seems like all hope is lost, Titan unearths a stunning find.
 
Could this new discovery be Jack’s ‘golden goose’ or just the beginning of the end to everything Jack holds dear?
