Jin's gazed-out vision came back into view once he felt a warm hand grace his cheek. A warm hand he knew well but no longer wished to be touched by. His pale blue eyes flickered a few times before his full attention was brought back to reality. The warm hand belonged to Heath. His pimp, for the lack of better words. Jin didn't expect to see him here tonight. It was Thursday. He was never here on a Thursday. 

A pass of panic ran through Jin as he sat there at the end of the bar. The drink that was ordered for him was untouched. Suddenly, wondering what happened to require Heath to come to find him like this? Was Jasper okay? His face didn't show the worry he felt in the center of his chest. He also knew he hadn't done anything wrong himself to warrant an unscheduled visit. 

Heath ran the club they were both currently in. Along with a few others over the city limits. All by different names and under different management for the day-to-day operations, but he was the top alpha in all of them. He also had his hands on many other things that weren't as accepted. Jin smiled as he looked up, his face more or less guided by Heath to do so. 

"I don't pay you to sit on your ass all night," Heath smirked. He tightened his grip along his chin. "Even if you're an exotic. And one of my personal favorites." 

Heath gave him the same look he always did when he told him that. Jin was referred to as an exotic for two reasons. One, he was part Asian. His mother was Koren making Jin an Asian American, first-generation. Number two, he was an omega. A male omega. So if one wanted to get more specific, he was a fucking unicorn in this world. 

Jin was one of Heath's top exotic's, which they both knew. He brought in a lot of money for him, so some of the others under Heath's care thought of him to be a special case. That Heath treated him differently due to his rarity in the world. Jin liked to think otherwise. He was treated no better than the rest of them. However, he did receive a bit more attention from Heath. This attention, he was pretty sure, was what others thought to make him a special case. Jin also pulled in more loaded clients than the others, which allowed him to be more selective of who he brought into his bed. 

Wincing as Heath squeezed on his chin, smirking at the dominance he was asserting over him. There was no need. Jin was compliant in all that he did for Heath. He was the superior one between the two of them, Heath a true breed alpha. Heath found his fun in showing Jin he had full control over him. Not allowing the role Jin played with other alpha's to cloud his head in the slightest. Heath's smirk lasted only a few more seconds before his attention was pulled, dropping his grasp. 

"I need you tonight," Heath commented and stood up straight, motioning to someone behind him. 

"Can I see him?" Jin finally spoke with a hesitation in his voice, arching his perfectly trimmed dark eyebrow. 

Heath cut his gaze quick at Jin, smirking that twisted grin of his. Lately, whenever Jin asked to see Jasper, Heath brushed him off or gave some lame excuse; as to why he couldn't. It caused the worry and many other feelings within him to only grow bigger. It had been over a month now since he last saw Jasper in the flesh. 

Their usual night together wasn't till Sunday. Heath played with all of his favorite toys throughout the week. Those who worked under him saw the ones that made it into the weekly slots as the top escorts. Jin has held his Sunday placement since he's come to work for Heath. Anything outside of that day was a favor that was to be owed. This was at least the arrangement they had. He wasn't sure about the others. 

Jin thought the least he could do was let him talk to Jasper. Also, Heath pulling him from the floor tonight would cost him. He had a few regulars that came in every evening, so he was expected. Unable to miss out on his regulars. 

Over the past few months, Jin had cut back on who he was willing to see. A move most sought to be stupid on his behalf because he was the most popular one at this location. Most felt he should reap it all in while he still could. That any day a younger, more exotic omega could walk through the front doors and take his place. 

He had his reasons as to why he pulled back on the clients he took. The last newcomer, Jin, had almost cost him his life, well more his freedom. The alpha hit a rut midway through their night together and almost marked him. It was the closest he's ever come to be marked by anyone, even Heath. It honestly scared him, unable to imagine what his life would be like when the last bit of freedom he did have was taken from him. 

Heath surprisingly didn't have much to say about the change. Jin was unsure if he's even come to notice the change at all. He still pulled in the same amount each week as he was before. Simple price change for a little something extra to make it worth it for all of his regulars. 

"Just put that seductive smile on and follow." 

Heath had nothing more to say about it. Not even glancing back to make sure Jin was there because he knew better than to go against him for any reason. He led the way back to his office. Jin thought it was just Heath being Heath and wanted a little something extra for this week or that his usual Thursday night plans got canceled. 

That thinking got tossed out the window once they got to the office. Someone was already waiting in there. Waiting in Heath's personal chair as if he owned the club himself. Jin thought this had to be someone of importance for the simple fact Heath didn't make a scene about his place being taken by another. 

"My top requested." Heath motioned to Jin. 

Jin nodded his head slightly, acknowledging the male, his dark bangs brushing over his brow as he leaned. 

Heath then motioned for the male to move from his seat. Personally, knocking his booted feet off the end of the desk. 

"No bonding. Is my only rule, Ezra."

"You told me that already." 

It was Heath's only rule, but it wasn't all of Jin's personal rules. They got to set their own rules. Which were to be respected, or the client got kicked out. Heath seemed to give Ezra the green light on everything but his one rule causing a lump to form in Jin's throat.
