Chapter 7
Lovie’s piercing scream tore me from the coma her gushy pussy and the alcohol we drank placed me in. My eyes popped open ready to protect her. My shock washed over me like a bucket of cold water when I saw Aisley standing over the bed in a beige trench coat. She had the belt untied, so it revealed lacy lingerie underneath.
“What the fuck is that bitch doing here?” Lovie hollered while wrapping her naked body in my silky sheets.
I wanted to admire how fucking good she looked, but I had bigger issues to focus on right now. Aisley was messing up my plans to feel the inside of her at least one more time. When I didn’t respond, she turned to me and did what she did best… assume some shit.
“You fucking this bitch too? Huh? Is that why she’s half naked standing over your bed in the middle of the night like a lunatic?” She kept rattling off question after question, never giving me the chance to say shit.
I leaned back against the headboard and ran my hand down my face. A nigga didn’t feel like dealing with this shit right now. Whack! Lovie hauled off and slapped the fuck out of me. I barely had time to prepare myself before her little ass jumped on me. I couldn’t stop myself from laughing every time she swung on me, trying her best to fuck me up.
“Chill, Trouble. It’s not what you think,” I explained, but she wasn’t hearing it.
She tried to swing on me again, except this time, I wrapped her up in a bear hug, forcing her down on the mattress on her side. I placed multiple kisses on every inch of her skin I could reach.
“You crazy as fuck, boe.” I chuckled, which made her start bucking, trying her best to escape my vice grip. “I’m laughing ’cause you really think you can beat my ass. I don’t wanna fight with you, Lovie Dovie. I promise it’s not what you think it is, and I’m going to handle it. Just chill ’cause you not going anywhere.”
“Fuck you, Romani! I’m going the fuck home. You got me fucked up if you think I’m just going to be another bitch on your roster,” she spewed angrily.
I gripped the front of her neck and placed my lips on her ear.
“I’m going to fuck you so good you’ll be begging for some shit like this to happen again. I’ll even do it right here in front of her if you want me to.”
I could feel her heart racing underneath me. She knew what I could do to her body, and the thought intrigued her. I placed a kiss on her cheek then released her to focus on Aisley. The look I gave her had her stumbling backward because she knew better than to pull something like this. I wasn’t even sure what would convince her to show up like this. She only had access to my place for emergencies. It was clear even letting her see my dick was a mistake because it fucked her head up. Once we were in the living room, I went in on her.
“Yo, Aisley, what the fuck are you doing in my crib like this? This shit is not cool. You know we have a strictly professional relationship.”
She suddenly found her voice and replied with attitude.
“What’s professional about letting me suck your dick?”
I chuckled with a shake of my head.
“You didn’t suck my dick you were trying to eat it, and I don’t mean that in a good way. It was one time because I needed to get my mind off some things, but baby girl, I stopped you because it was terrible. I thought it was understood it would never happen again.”
She scoffed. “All niggas love my head, so I know that’s a lie.”
I scratched my head unsure of how to respond to that.
“You must only fuck with niggas that are paralyzed from the waist down because I promise your dick sucking skills are so trash that they should be reported to authorities because you need to be locked the fuck up for life.” I shook my head, realizing we were getting too far off topic. “Fuck all that though. I’m going to need my key back, and your things cleared out of the office by the end of the day.”
Her mouth popped open in shock. “You’re firing me?”
I nodded. “Absolutely.”
She rushed toward me. “What? Why? I need this job. You can’t do this. I’ll sue your ass.”
I shrugged. “Do what you must, but I promise it’s a battle you won’t win. You’ve officially abused your position, and I’m not okay with it. Neither is the bad bitch you found me cuddled up with. Now, that’s some head I want every day for the rest of my life, not that shit you were doing. Chewing on my shit like a dog with a bone...”
She fell to her knees in front of me and placed her hands palm to palm. Her eyes took on a doe shape as she looked up at me. I could see the tears forming.
“Please don’t do this. I’m sorry. I can make it better. Let me suck your dick and fix it. I’ll never do this again.”
I realized she really had some loose screws. Why would she offer to do the very thing I already told her I didn’t like? Why was she offering it up when I already said I wanted Lovie? I was completely puzzled but couldn’t even fully process it because Lovie came marching down the hallway. She was fully dressed in her outfit from yesterday and beelining for the front door.
“Aye, where the fuck you going?” I questioned her as I followed her right behind her.
I forgot all about Aisley because this was way more important to me. I reached for her arm to stop her, but she snatched away.
“I’m going home. I’m not doing this with you. I heard y’all talking. I knew there was a reason she was always weird to me. It’s because y’all are fucking.”
“Now what damn conversation were you listening to because I never said I fucked that girl. She tried to give me head, and I didn’t like it. It was only once.”
“I don’t care if it was never! She’s too comfortable and feels entitled to your dick. I’ve dealt with enough hos like that to last me a lifetime. I am good.”
I pushed her up against the front door as she reached for the handle.
“I realize she’s too comfortable. That’s why I just fired her. And the only woman entitled to my dick is you because I wanna feed you every inch rather rain, sleet, or snow, morning, afternoon, or night.”
She spun around and pushed me back with all her might. Because I was caught off guard, I stumbled back a few steps. She opened her mouth to say something, but her eyes went behind me, and she decided not to. I had a feeling Aisley was standing back there. She turned and snatched the door open. Big Ned had towed her car over, so it was out front. She raced to it without saying another word. I decided to let her go, because as long as Aisley was here, she was not going to believe a word out of my mouth. As I watched her go, all I could think about was how to make it all better. I couldn’t see myself doing life without that little firecracker now that I got to experience all of her.
“Aisley, give me my key, and get the fuck out,” I demanded without taking my eyes off Lovie’s car disappearing out of my iron gates.
I could hear her shuffling behind me until she was standing in front of me. She tried to speak, but there was nothing else to be said. I held out my hand. My key was dropped seconds later. Stepping back inside, I shut the door in her face and locked it.
I wasn’t sure what I was going to do to fix things with Lovie, but it became my priority for the day. I was going to start by looking in the two places I knew she could be. Somehow and someway, this day was not ending without me having a talk with her. I needed her, and not having her wasn’t even an option for me. I would do whatever it required.
By the time I made it to my bedroom I caught the last of my phone ringing. Walking over to my nightstand I picked it up to see who’d called me. My blood immediately began to boil when I saw it was a missed call from The Glenn. There was only one person behind those walls who would be calling me.
I plopped on my bed, staring at the phone. A minute later, it began vibrating again, and I fought against the part of me that was always searching for his mother’s love. Knowing she could never provide me with it was the deciding factor that kept me from answering. But now I found myself caught in the past, and darkness began to crowd the corners of my eyes as I was sucked back into my darkest days. I knew the only thing I could do now was shut down shop. It was the only way I knew how to deal with the pain.
