she rolls her eyes. it’s cute, sibling bonding or whatever it is he thinks he’s doing by coaching her on how to blackmail though she’s perfectly capable on her own. “okay nikolai, i’m not stupid, i know how to blackmail someone, alright?”
“then why the hell are you asking?” he shrugged. “don’t get all fucking salty when i answer the shit you asked in the first place.”
she grins. ignoring his first comment about her unaesthetic looks. nikolai is attractive to kenna, so everything he says flows smooth as butter, melting her as she bats her eyelashes at him. “oh yeah? i think that sounds like a great idea.” she winks, inching a little closer to him.”what’d you have in mind?”
the million-dollar smile only grew when the girl agreed and he clapped his hands. “first i gotta get you out of here.” he stood up and waited for the girl. “all you need to know is it involves alcohol and you won’t be home until very late.”
she pauses for a moment. a genuine expression that showed she was in the middle of a thought. “yep, one person…for now.” she shrugs, never know what can go south, she makes a mental note of it. “monthly, duh, let’s not be silly.”
nik nodded and considered the additional information. it still wasn’t enough. “yearly can be really rentable too,” he pointed out and shrugged. “just take into consideration how much money the person has. you need to ask for a good sum but not something it will be hard for them to pay.”
she’d been studying all night. “if i read one more chapter of this…” she pauses. the advanced biology textbook glaring at her in her hands. “if i look horrible it’s because i got three hours of sleep and feel horrible.”
“you do look horrible,” he spoke with no qualms. “it looks like you need me, penney. let me take you to have some fun tonight. it will do you more than a few hours of sleep.”
“how much money do you think someone could make a year from blackmail alone?” her tone nonchalant as if this was your typical every day curiosity. “think big here, large scale secret - type of money.”
“it depends,” nik shrugged. he was as unbothered about the question as his sister was. “are you blackmailing only one person? are you getting paid monthly or yearly?”
