Joanna Dimarco was born to a working class Italian family on the south side of Chicago. She was the sixth child brought into this world by Sal and Liza Dimarco and the only girl. Liza was delighted she finally had a daughter who could pass on the vast knowledge she possessed to future generations. She loved her five boys with all her heart. But she couldn't share her secret desires or the delicious family recipes she had compiled over the years with her sons. Now that she had Joanna her life was complete. Sal of course was happy for Liza. Being the only female in a house full of males wasn't easy for her. Having Joanna to pamper and spoil would be a huge comfort to Liza. But he wasn't exactly thrilled over having another child. To him she was merely one more mouth to feed. That is until the nurse cleaned the baby up and laid her in Liza's arms. He took one look at Joanna and knew they had been blessed with someone special. She was the most beautiful child he had ever seen in his life.

Sal was aware that every parent felt their child was something special. It was human nature. But in this case it was absolutely true. There was an aura around Joanna that seemed to glow as bright as the sun. She was positively gorgeous. Which totally surprised Sal. For hundreds of years the Dimarco clan were considered to be average looking. None of the males could be described as ruggedly handsome and there certainly wasn't any stunningly beautiful females. They always married within their station so it remained that way for several centuries. Joanna was clearly an exception to the rule. And as each year went by she got more and more beautiful. On her sixth Birthday, her father jokingly said she was purely a Diamond in the ruff. The family loved it so much the nickname stuck. Joanna was suddenly being called Diamond Dimarco. And it fit her perfectly.

Sal was very protective of his beautiful daughter. He couldn't bare the thought of Diamond being molested or raped or even mugged. So when she turned eight years old he signed her up for every Martial Arts class he could find. Diamond took to it like a fish to water. She quickly learned Japanese Karate and Jujitsu along with Chinese Kung Fu and Tai Chi. They were followed by Korean Tae Kwon Do and the French style of foot fighting called Savate. But Sal wasn't satisfied. So he hired instructors to teach her the fine art of boxing and the grappling art of wrestling. Ten years later she was finally able to convince her father she could handle herself in any dangerous situation. Sal was tightly wrapped around his beautiful daughters little finger and unable to deny anything her heart desired. So he relented and gave in. She kissed him on the cheek and thanked him for understanding.

Her favorite relative while growing up was her Uncle Paulie. He was exceptionally funny and he doted on Diamond like she was his own daughter. But Paulie developed a gambling habit and she began to lose touch with him. One day while she was shopping she happened to look through a window and saw her Uncle Paulie sitting on a bar stool crying. She went in to find out what was wrong but he said he didn't want to talk about it. Diamond was head strong and wouldn't take no for an answer. Paulie kept telling her to get out and leave him alone. So Diamond took matters into her own hands and hauled him out to her car. He was slobbering drunk and easy to handle. When he realised he wasn't going to get rid of her he broke down and told her the truth. He was about to lose everything he had including his family because of his addictive gambling habit. Diamond decided to help Uncle Paulie straighten out his life. Whether he wanted help or not.

Diamond dragged Paulie to his house and sat him down with his wife and kids. She explained she was going to help her Uncle break his gambling habit and forced Paulie to apologise to his family and beg for their forgiveness. His wife didn't really want to leave him but she said she couldn't continue to live the way they were if Paulie didn't stop gambling. Diamond assured her he would stop and told the woman she would make sure Paulie kept his promise. Then she got right in her Uncles face and stared a hole through him with her steel grey eyes. "If I find out you have broken your promise to me and them you'll wish you were dead. I'll set one of your dining room chairs in the middle of the street in front of this house and drag your naked body out there. Then while all of the neighbors are watching, I'll throw you across my lap and blister your bare ass with a razor strap until it's raw and bleeding. Understand?" She sternly asked. Paulie was trembling like a leaf in a strong wind and having trouble swallowing. He knew Diamond was not only capable of carrying out her threat, she would do it without a touch of regret. "I swear D.Diamond. I'll keep my promise and make you all proud of me." He softly whimpered. "Good. Then it's settled." She said with her hands on her slender hips.

Diamond took Paulie down to Gamblers Anonymous and had him sign up. Then two nights a week she would pick him up and drive him to the meetings. After six months she allowed him to go on his own when he gave her his word he wouldn't falter. Just in case, she had friends and other family members keep an eye on him and report back to her. But Paulie kept his word and kicked the habit within two years. She was extremely proud of him. Paulie had to sell his Hardware business to pay off his gambling debts. So he was having a hard time providing for his family. Then he suddenly got a brilliant idea that couldn't possibly miss. He wasn't the only sucker out there who was gambling away his hard earned money. So he decided to take advantage of their addiction and become a bookie. He set up shop at a back table in a bar his cousin owned and started out small. His business quickly grew until he was one of the most popular bookies in town. He was even handling most of the high end betters who used to do business with his former bookie. Which was sometimes a problem.

Rich guys who laid down hundreds of thousands of dollars on numerous bets were generally the toughest people to collect from when they lost. Even though they had more then enough money to cover the wagers. Most of his clients would eventually pay up when they wanted to place another bet. But there was a couple of guys on his books who were filthy rich and used to doing things their own way. Brock Peters was one of those men. He made a fortune in textiles by the time he was twenty four and his ego grew larger then his net worth. It didn't bother his conscience at all if he could make a buck by putting thousands of people out of work. That was their tough luck and no problem of his. He refused to follow any rules but his own and didn't hesitate to fire anyone who failed to obey his orders. Unfortunately Brock had no idea how to pick a winner and very seldom won. However collecting from him was like pulling teeth. Especially if he was positive he had bet on a sure thing and couldn't understand why he lost. Which happened quite often. Paulie always allowed Brock as much time as possible even though it was bad business to let a client slide for several months. But this time Brock was convinced he had somehow been screwed and refused to pay up. So Paulie was left with no other choice. His oldest son who worked with him in the Hardware store was a large man with bulked up muscles. So Paulie sent him over to collect Brock's debt. A few hours later his sons battered body stumbled through the door and collapsed. Paulie rushed him to the hospital and made the necessary phone calls to the family relatives.

Diamond was relaxing in her dinning room drinking her morning orange juice. She had just finished reading the daily newspaper and was sitting on her window sill looking out the window. Mornings were her favorite part of the day. She smiled as she watched the birds flit back and forth with twigs and other small items clutched tightly in their beaks. They were hurriedly building their nests so it would be ready for their young who would soon be arriving. The peace and tranquility of her morning was interrupted by the ringing phone. Diamond let out a soft sigh and went to answer it. After hearing what had happened she quickly dressed and grabbed her keys on the way out the door. The family was worriedly sitting in the waiting room while the young man was being patched up. Diamond over heard Paulie explaining the details to his wife and got intensely angry. Brock had let him in on the pretense he was going to pay up. But when the door was shut, he set two beefy body guards on his son and they worked him over good. Then Brock threw the badly beaten man out and warned him never to come back. Diamond pulled her Uncle aside and told him she would handle the situation for him. Paulie knew he could never talk her out of something when her mind was made up. So he told her to be careful.

Diamond relaxing on the window sill enjoying her morning.

Diamond was sexually dressed for the part when she knocked on the door. The black skirt hung just below her knees and tightly hugged her well defined hips. A matching black jacket was over her slender shoulders which covered the white ruffled blouse that barely kept her firm breasts from spilling out. Black mesh stockings and five inch black spiked heels completed her outfit. A smile appeared on her luscious lips when she thought about her favorite toy which was nestled in the briefcase she was carrying. Mr. Brock Peter's was going to get the surprise of his life after she dealt with the two pricks who roughed up her cousin. Brock Peter's opened the door and was immediately stunned by her radiant beauty. "Mr. Peter's. I have a lucrative business venture I would like to discuss with you." She said with a honey dripping voice. Brock wasn't used to people showing up at his door with business propositions. And he certainly didn't need the money. But he couldn't take his eyes off of the beautiful blond and had no intention of letting her get away. "It would be my pleasure Miss. Please come in." He replied with his best smile. Diamond smiled back and brushed against him as she stepped through the door. Peter's got a whiff of her perfume and nearly shot his load when her gorgeous body touched him. "Please follow me to my den where we can talk over your proposal." He said as he led the way. The click clack of her spiked heels was clearly heard on the marble floor as Diamond followed her quarry with a smile. The man had no idea he was about to be drawn and quartered.

Peters offered her a chair and settled into his own behind the desk. "Now then. What can I do for you Miss...?" He asked questionably. "It's Miss Dimarco. Diamond Dimarco to be precise. But you can call me your worse nightmare. Which is exactly what I will be when I'm finished with you." She replied glaring at him. Peter's just laughed. "I've certainly got to hand it to Paulie for coming up with a total surprise. But does he actually believe I would simply hand over the money to a beautiful woman when his goon failed to handle the job. The poor mans more delusional then I thought." "Oh I don't want you to give me the money asshole. I want to take it from you. Very painfully I might add. Let's call it added incentive for what your men did to my cousin. Where are they by the way? I wouldn't want them to miss out on the fun. They need to be taught a valuable lesson in humility. And I'm an excellent teacher in that department." Peter's merely laughed again. "You really are something beautiful. It's a shame my boys will have to mess up that pretty face of yours." He pushed the hidden button under his desk and two burly males instantly walked into the room and closed the door.

"Meet Sledge and Hammer sweetheart. Two of the best body guards money can buy." He said pointing to the huge black and white men. "That's not their real names of course, but I have a sense of humor that won't be denied." He turned to the two large men and waved his hand. "Show the lady out Gentlemen. She's overstayed her welcome. She made the mistake of pissing me off and you know how I get when that happens. So you have my permission to be as physical as you like." Diamond calmly rose to her feet and looked over the two men coming towards her. Sledge and Hammer were your typical body guards. They were as big as a house with shoulders as wide as the front end of a car. They had bodybuilder frames with tree trunk legs and telephone pole sized arms. Diamond placed her hands on her hips and smiled. "I hope your mothers are near by boys, because you're going to need a shoulder to cry on when I'm through punishing you."

The two mountain men looked at each other and shook their heads as they attacked. That was the last time they were able to see clearly. "WHAP!" The side of her shod foot slammed into Hammers jaw with a perfectly executed arc kick that sent the burly man stumbling to his left. Then she dodged Sledge's murderous punch and snatched his arm out of the air. She used his momentum against him to flip the large black man over her shoulder. "SLAM!" The house shook like it was in an earthquake when his enormous body hit the floor. His temple was immediately met by a sharp kick from her pointed toe. "WHAP!" Diamond left him lying there in a stupor while she went after Hammer. He had righted himself and was baring down on her with destruction on his mind. "WHAM!" A high heeled shoe buried itself deep in his mid section when Diamond's smooth, tanned leg snapped forward like it was shot out of a cannon. "BLAM!" Then his nose was shattered and several teeth were broken when she grabbed the back of his head and yanked it down to meet her fast rising knee. Hammer flopped to the floor with a whimper. She returned to deal with Sledge who was climbing to his feet. Brock sat there in shock while he watched Diamond handle his men with ease.

Sledge threw a monstrous punch with mean intentions which she was easily able to avoid. Their muscle bound arms were so big and heavy they weren't capable of throwing a punch with any speed. "SMACK!..SMACK!" Two quick jabs bloodied his nose and swelled up his top lip. Sledge growled and tried to sweep her up in his massive arms to crush her female body in a bear hug. Before he realised it, his left arm was clutched in her hands and he was suddenly sailing through the air from a picture perfect Judo throw. "SLAM!..CRASH!" A floor lamp and an easy chair were completely destroyed when his huge frame plowed into them. Hammer was up and staring at her with murder in his eyes. Diamond was swaying her feminine hips as she approached to remind him it was a female who was going to turn him into a coward. Hammer wasn't impressed or frightened by her tactics. In fact, it seemed to make him more angry. He drew his ham like fist back to deliver a powerful punch that would shatter her bones. But the slow and cumbersome male never got to chance to throw the devastating punch.

"SMACK!..SMACK!" A lightening fast left jab and right cross landed with extreme accuracy and spoiled his plans. Then Diamond grabbed his right sleeve while he was distracted and quickly spun him around until his back was to her. She snatched his left sleeve with her other hand and stretched his huge arms out behind him. Her gorgeous right leg shot up to brutally drive her foot into his back while she roughly pulled on his trapped arms. "POP!..POP!" His broad shoulders slipped out of their sockets. The big man screamed and nearly fainted as he collapsed to his knees. "AAIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" "WHACK!..WHACK!" A Karate chop on each side of his thick neck dropped him in the floor out cold. Peter's made a break for the door when he saw Hammer go down. But the blond female warrior stepped in his path with a smile. "Unh unh unhhh." She said wagging her finger. "No leaving the room until class is over." Peter's opened his mouth to protest but she quickly snapped it shut with a potent uppercut. "CRACK!" He was sleeping like a baby when he landed in front of his desk.

Sledge was shaking his delirious head and rapidly blinking his eyes as he staggered to his feet. But his face was met by a fast moving foot before he could clear his vision. "WHAP!" He flopped back in the floor like a lifeless rag doll. Diamond lifted his right arm and got a firm grip on his wrist. Then she nudged him with her foot until the big man was coherent enough to understand her. She placed her spiked heel directly on his Larynx and rested the toe of her shoe on the floor beside his neck. "If you struggle to much or try to escape I'll puncture your air way and you'll choke to death on your own blood. Blink your eyes twice if you understand." She threatened. A frightened look spread across his face as he quickly blinked his eyes. "Good boy. Now I'm very upset with you over of the terrible beating you gave my cousin. I tend to lose control of my fiery Italian temper when I get upset and the people responsible usually get hurt. In this case I'm afraid that means you. So grit your teeth and lie as still as you can or my spiked heel may accidentally poke a hole in your throat."

She grabbed his thumb and roughly bent it back while viciously twisting it. "SNAP!" The mans body spasmed when the bone snapped like a twig and her spiked heel momentarily cut off his breathing. His face turned red and his eyes bugged out. "I warned you to lie still you stupid son of a bitch. Are you so retarded you can't follow simple orders?" She asked chastising him. Sledge quietly laid there while tears slid out the corner of his eyes. "Now concentrate this time and don't move." She scolded. "SNAP!" His index finger was now broken. Sledge willed himself to remain still and amazingly accomplished it. But the tears pouring from his eyes increased. "That's much better. Maybe you do have a brain after all." "SNAP!" A gurgling whimper escaped his throat and he cried even harder when she broke his middle finger. But he managed to keep his large frame still. "Good boy. You're learning." She praised while breaking his ring finger. "SNAP!" Sledge mercifully passed out. "SNAP!" Diamond broke his little finger and dropped his limp arm.

Diamond slapped Brock awake and dragged him to his feet. "Let's you and I have some quality time together while your boys are getting their beauty sleep." She said while patting his cheek. His face turned snow white when Brock saw his body guards out cold on the floor. "Please M.Miss Dimarco. I'll open my safe and give you your m.money right now. Just don't hurt me." He pleaded. "Oh I'm certain you'll give me the money before I leave here you whining piece of shit. Plus interest for pain and suffering. Which is what you're about to experience for the next few hours." An ear piercing scream filled the air when she drew back her fist. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" "SMACK!" His nose was instantly shattered. "SMACK!" Now his lips began to swell. "SMACK!..SMACK!" Both of his tearful eyes were in extreme pain. Brock completely wilted in her grasp. If the man had any courage or fighting spirit it had abandoned him long ago. But that didn't sway Diamond from her mission. She had no sympathy at all for the chicken shit bastard.

"CRACK!" The powerful uppercut sent his body sliding across his desk and down to the floor below. Diamond casually strolled around it and yanked him back up. His eyes were tightly shut and he was wailing like a broken hearted child. She wrenched his arm up his back and smiled while she repeatedly slammed him against the wall face first. "SLAM!..SLAM!..SLAM!..SLAM!" Then she whipped him around and threw him across the desk this time. Brock was frantically trying to crawl to the door when she planted her foot on his ass and shoved him down on his face. "There's no escape for you asshole so you might as well accept your fate and stop trying." "Please Miss Dimarco, I'm a very wealthy man. I can give you more money then you've ever seen in your life. Just stop hurting me." He begged. Diamond simply ignored him while she hauled the sobbing man to his feet by the hair. "WHAP!" The sole of her shoe flattened his broken nose to his face and dropped him like a sopping wet dish rag. Blood splattered all over the floor.

Brock was dazed and disoriented when she picked him up. But he was coherent enough to try and push her away from him. Diamond laughed at his pathetic attempt and easily slapped his fumbling arms out of her way. Then she opened up and cut the defenseless man to pieces. "SMACK!..SMACK!..SMACK!..SMACK!..SLAM!" Brock hit the floor and bounced. "Come back here weakling. I'm not through with you yet." Brock was totally out of it and had no idea he was about to be thoroughly annihilated. "SMACK!..THUD!..THUD!..WHAP!..SLAM!" The brutal kick to his jaw knocked him against the wall. When he caromed off she turned her back to him and reached behind her to grab the back of his neck. A slight bend in the knees while she roughly pulled down and he went sailing over her shoulder. "SLAM!" He was lying there barely conscious when Diamond curled her fingers in his shirt and lifted his upper body off of the floor. "You better never" "SMACK!" "Give another order" "SMACK!" "To hurt any member" "SMACK!" "Of my family" "SMACK!" "Again." "SMACK!" "Is that clear asshole?" "SMACK!" She noticed Hammer was stirring so she dropped his battered unconscious body and turned to meet her next victim.

The big man was grimacing because of his dislocated shoulders as he plodded towards her. He suddenly stopped and attempted to kick her between the legs. Diamond slid to her left and caught his trunk size leg while it was in the air. She quickly lifted it higher while driving the side of her foot into the heel he had planted on the floor. The huge man hung in the air for a split second before he came crashing down on his back. "SLAM!" The house shook on it's foundation again. Diamond flipped his semi conscious body over and put him in a Boston crab. The unbearable pain woke him up in a hurry. "AAIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" The poor mans bulky legs were totally useless when she finally released him. He could only whimper when she lifted him to his knees and wrapped him up in a sleeper hold. He was sound asleep in less then a minute. Diamond decided to work on Sledge a little more before waking up Brock.

She stretched the big black mans left arm out from his body and sat down in the floor. After jamming her left foot in his arm pit and her right against the side of his neck, she got a firm grip on his wrist and nudged his chin with her foot until his eyes slowly opened. "Wakey wakey wimp. It's time to do a little aerobic stretching." Before he could utter a word, she forcibly pulled on his arm and savagely twisted it. The pain instantly registered in his brain and his mouth flew open when his muscle bound arm broke at the elbow. "SNAP!" "AAIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" "I think you over did it muscle head. You should be more careful when you're working out." She teased. Sledge just laid there and cried. Diamond dragged the sobbing man to his feet and smiled when she saw the fear in his tear filled eyes. With a broken arm and five broken fingers he was completely defenseless against the beautiful blond tigress.

Diamond thoroughly enjoyed herself while she put the large man through hell. His over sized body was bent, flipped, thrown, twisted, squeezed, stomped on and battered. Then his face was beaten and kicked until it was completely black and blue and swollen up like an air filled beach ball. He passed out several times but was quickly woken up so he could feel every bit of the torture she was inflicting on him. When Diamond threw his unconscious body in the floor he was completely broken. With Sledge and Hammer out of the way it was time to show Brock her wonderful little toy and teach him some discipline. She opened her briefcase and took out the half inch nylon rope she brought. Brock was still sleeping peacefully while she stripped him naked and threw him up on his desk. She tied his hands behind his back and his legs together. Then she cut a long piece of rope that stretched around the bottom and top of the desk and tied it across his back to keep him pinned there. Diamond took her toy out of the briefcase and sat down in the chair in front of his desk. She nudged the side of Brock's swollen face with her foot until his eyes flew open.

Diamond showing her favorite toy to the begging millionaire.

Brock saw her bending the dangerous looking riding crop in her hands and instantly began begging while heavy tears poured from his frightened eyes. "You.. can't.. do.. this.. M.Miss.. Dimarco. I.. beg.. you. Please. Don't.. use.. that.. on.. m.me." "Stop being such a baby. This little toy of mine barely stings. Why you might even find you like the sensation it gives you when it cuts into your skin." She said with an evil smile. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" "Please.. Miss.. Dimarco. I'll.. give.. you.. anything.. you.. want. Money.. furs.. jewelry. Anything.. you.. desire. I'll.. even.. stop.. placing.. bets.. with.. Paulie.. so.. he'll.. never.. have.. to.. worry.. about.. me.. again. Just.. don't.. humiliate.. me.. with.. that.. thing. "You've really beginning to upset me asshole. Threatening to take the food right out of my family's mouth is a very serious offense. Now I'm afraid I'll have to double the punishment you were going to receive." "AAWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! HAWWW! HAWWW! HAWWWWWW!" Peters simply broke down and bawled.

Diamond stood and slowly walked around the side of the desk. Brock's frightened tear filled eyes followed her as far as they could while he laid there and squalled. She placed her soft palm on his bare ass and smiled when he jumped like she had touched him with a hot flame. "You're very tender back here Mr. Peter's. This might hurt you a little more then I thought." She teased. He knew it was useless to beg so he merely laid there and cried his eyes out. "Oh well. We can't let minor details stop us from fulfilling our duty. You've been found guilty of being a worthless piece of shit who has no morals or conscience. The sentence for that despicable crime is a harsh and very painful lashing. I have been appointed to carry out that punishment with extreme prejudice. So let's get started shall we?" Peter's was wailing like a banshee before the riding crop struck his ass.

"SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!" The little whip rose and fell like an unstoppable machine. Brock was painfully surprised a female could generate so much power with such a slender arm. The nasty looking riding crop was cutting deep into his soft flesh and leaving an angry criss crossed trail of bleeding welts. Brock's continuous screaming was loud enough to wake the dead. But Diamond was immensely enjoying herself. "SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!" She gave him twenty vicious licks before stopping to let the pain and humiliation flow through his trembling body. Diamond strolled around to the front of the desk and lifted his head so she could look into his tear filled eyes. "Now that wasn't to bad was it?" She asked smiling. Peter's just closed his eyes against the shame he felt and continued to cry. "I don't know about you but I think it's getting a little warm in here. Do you mind if I make myself more comfortable before we resume." She laid the blood stained riding crop on the chair and peeled off her clothes.

The beautiful Diamond ready to resume after getting comfortable.

Her perfectly sculpted female body was truly a thing to behold as she half nakedly stood there in the brightly lit room. It was absolute conformation that God's hands had crafted a creature of elegance and beauty when Diamond entered this world. The black bra and panties combined with the black mesh stockings and black high heels heightened the illusion she was a strict and ruthless disciplinarian who warranted fear and expected obedience. Which is exactly what she was striving for. Just as she finished undressing, she heard soft moaning coming from the two body guards who's destroyed bodies were lying where she left them. She decided they should feel the bite of her whip as well. Sledge and Hammer offered no resistance while Diamond ripped their clothes off and dragged them over to the desk. Their huge limbs were so severely damaged that Diamond didn't bother tying their hands and feet. She merely loosened the rope which was wrapped around the desk and tied all three of them down with it after throwing their battered bodies next to their crying boss. They meekly laid there and sobbed without any thought of trying to escape.

"Alright Gentlemen let's get back to the business at hand. The three of you have been very naughty boys and deserved to be justly punished for your crimes. There is no appeals. So pleading for mercy will not save you." "SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!" The three males were howling like a pack of hyenas while the devilish riding crop ripped their skin to shreds. "SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!" Diamond paused for a moment after giving each one a vicious lash to let the searing pain sink in. When their loud screams died down to soft weeping she let them feel the sting of her favorite toy again. "SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!" The top of the desk was quickly flooded with their heavy tears. Steady streams were flowing to the floor on all sides. "SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!" Diamond finally gave them a short reprieve and went around to check on them.

She sat down in the chair in front of the sobbing men and crossed her shapely left leg over her right. As she was swinging her leg up and down the shoe slipped off of her heel and dangled from her cute toes. Diamond was bending the painful riding crop in her strong hands while she glared at her crying victims and sternly spoke to them. "You had better learn from this lesson and behave yourselves from now on. No more bullying and beating on people until they end up in the hospital. I won't put up with it. If I even hear a rumor you've worked over someone like you did my cousin there won't be any place you can hide from me. I promise you Gentlemen, you don't want me coming back. So mind your manners like good little boys or else. Is that understood?" Poor Sledge and Hammer immediately agreed to follow her instructions. They were willing to do anything she asked to escape the dominate blonds wrath. But Brock never said a word.

Diamond giving the men a stern look to intimidate them.

Brock was a completely broken man who had flat given up. He was off in his own world of self pity and unaware of anything going on around him. But silence was unacceptable to Diamond. She wanted his solemn oath he would become a better man. And she was damn sure going to get it before she left there. She placed the tip of the riding crop under his chin and lifted his drooping head. Her steel grey eyes bore into his and the frightened man was close to pissing all over himself. "I asked if you understood what I just told you. And you better answer me wimp, or I'll strip the hide off of your back as well. Now speak up." "Y.Y.Yes ma'am." He mumbled through quivering lips. "That's better. Don't make me wait for an answer again. I'm not in the mood for any foolishness. Now let's finish up so we can all get on with our day." The three men dropped their heads and cried while she calmly walked around behind them.

"SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!..SWISH!" Twenty minutes later she untied the sobbing males and ordered Sledge and Hammer to remain where they were. She dragged Brock off of the desk and hauled him over to the wall safe. He tried to walk as gingerly as he could but Diamond was keeping a brisk pace. After he opened the safe, she took the hundred thousand he owed and twenty thousand more for wasting her time. Brock didn't argue. When she raised her hand to pat him on the cheek he nearly fainted. She snatched him by the ear and got right in his ashen colored face. "You no longer have the privilege of phoning in your wagers. Drive down to Uncle Paulie's place of business and put cold hard cash on the table when you want to place a bet. And be very polite. Do we understand each other?" She asked in a no nonsense tone. "Yes m.ma'am." He meekly replied. "Good boy. Now come with me." Diamond took him back to the desk and allowed him to lean against it. She reached into the briefcase and handed him a can of salve and a roll of gauze to help soothe and protect their raw, bleeding asses. Then she dressed while they did their best to cover up their wounds without causing themselves to much pain.

When she was ready to leave she ordered Sledge and Hammer to stand in front of her. They instantly scurried over as fast as their battered bodies and painful asses would let them. Diamond handed each of them a card and placed her hands on her slender hips. "Take this card down to Uncle Paulie's after you've healed and tell him I sent you. He needs debt collectors and I won't always be available to handle the slackers. But I'm giving you fair warning and you better pay attention. Try being a little more subtle. Threatening to do bodily harm will usually convince the welcher to pay up. Beating on him or her is not always necessary. Only use violence as a last resort. Is that clear?" "Yes ma'am. And thank you. We had already decided to quit this job anyway." Sledge told her. "Yeah. It's way to dangerous." Hammer added with a weak smile. Diamond couldn't stop herself from grinning. "Good boys. Then maybe I'll see you later." She turned and left without looking back.

Two weeks after being completely humiliated by the beautiful blond, Sledge and Hammer showed up at Paulie's. Diamond convinced her Uncle to give them a job. But she made them work for half pay until they proved they could be trusted. They were smart enough to keep their mouth shut and agree to her terms. The two burly men became Paulie's full time collectors while Diamond handled the special cases. Brock Peter's continued to place bets with Paulie and brought a wad of cash with him about twice a week like she ordered him to. He even smartened up and picked a few more winners. As for Diamond, she enjoyed her life as a part time debt collector. It was easy money and the job paid well. But her main concern was taking care of the family. After hearing what she did for Paulie, the other family members began calling her when they had a problem. And she would quickly and effectively solve it. So if you're ever in south Chicago and happen to meet the Dimarco family, I strongly suggest you treat them with the utmost respect. Or their beautiful blond protector will pay you a visit. And if she comes knocking on your door, praying won't help you at all.

The gorgeous Diamond Dimarco, protector of the family.
