“Bring yo’ pretty ass here, KD. You know this dick ain’t got nothing but love for you, baby.”
I relaxed in his arms as he stroked me mercilessly. The screams of passion leaving me were taking me even higher than I already was. My own damn voice was turning me on more. His grunts were taking me there too, not to mention his dirty ass mouth. He wiped his face and said, “I swear yo’ pussy was blessed by God, girl. This some heavenly shit, and it’s magically delicious. Fuck! Let me taste this shit again.”
He pulled out of me, and I squirted at least five feet. I had never seen my body do no shit like that. “See what the fuck I’m talking about? You gotta be a fucking angel in disguise.”
After his words, he went in face first and slurped every ounce of liquid my pussy excreted. He had to be a damn vacuum in a former life with the way he thoroughly sucked my shit.Shit!“Rhodes! Fuuuuuuck, baby!”
I came all over him again, and he stood and pushed inside of me. I clawed at him, probably leaving scratches all over him. “Karima… look at me, baby.”
I opened my eyes and stared at him in his tormented ones. The tears instantly fell down my cheeks. Something was telling me he was about to break my heart. This couldn’t be happening. I wouldn’t be able to endure this shit. I tried to get away from him. His dick slid out of me as I twisted my body beneath him.
“Karima! Look at me!” he said forcefully.
I stopped and stared at him, allowing the tears to cascade down my cheeks. “It’s only temporary. I don’t know how you knew what I was about to say. I can’t risk something happening to you or Roselynn. Until this problem is addressed and resolved, you being close to me isn’t safe. You could have died tonight! That would have killed me! I need you to understand, baby. Please.”
I jerked away from him and ran to the bathroom, locking myself inside. My head was pounding, begging for relief. I needed Rhodes to hold me… love me through this shit. There was no way I would be okay without him. I couldn’t understand why he would think I would be.
After cleaning up, I left the bathroom’s confines to find him seated on the couch, fully clothed. I took a deep breath and went to where he was and picked up my clothes. He stood and reached for my hand, but I avoided him. I glared at him and said, “I hope you know what the fuck you’re doing.”
“Honestly, I don’t. I just know that I want you to be safe. Being around me isn’t safe. That’s a no-brainer.”
I angrily swiped my tears away. “Maybe this should be permanent. I hope you can live with yourself after this. I wish I would have never given you another chance. I’m tired of being heartbroken. I’m already associated with you. Either way, I’m in this shit. Whoever the fuck they are, know where my parents live.”
I quickly got dressed as there was a knock on his door. He quickly went to a closet and got a gun. It was much bigger than the one he had in his truck. He turned to me and said, “Go back to the bathroom and lock the door.”
I rolled my eyes and walked off. Now he was being over the top. If somebody was here to take his ass out, they wouldn’t be knocking on the fucking door, giving him time to defend himself. When I heard a woman’s voice greeting him, I left the bathroom and went back to where we were previously. It was his aunt.
“Karima!”
“Hey, Missus Kimiko,” I said somewhat dryly as I hugged her.
When I pulled away, her eyebrows were lifted. She turned to Rhodes, as if silently questioning him. I grabbed my phone and purse and said, “Take me home. It seems your Rhodes only lead to heartbreak.”
I’d had enough of today. I was beyond ready for the shit to be over. I went to his kitchen to wait for him, doing my best not to cry. Glancing at my phone, I saw I had over forty new messages. I rolled my eyes, wanting to delete the entire thread.
“See you later, baby,” Mrs. Kimiko said.
I gave her a tight smile, not knowing if she’d ever see me again. Rhodes grabbed his keys, so I walked out of the house. He quickly grabbed my arm, pulling me back to him. “I hate to see you upset, KD.”
“Well, quit making me that way!”
“Why can’t you see that I’m doing what I feel is best?”
“Because you didn’t think it through! It’s bullshit!” I jerked away from him and said, “My family is meeting at the family barn tomorrow. I guess you can go see what they are planning to do. I won’t be there. Since you want me safe, I’ll be locked up in my fucking house.”
“Man, you fucking overreacting.”
“Am I? Huh? I swear, you the only nigga that can make my fucking Henderson show up, front and got damn center.”
I stormed off to his truck, as he used his remote to unlock it, and got inside. I was steaming. My phone started ringing. When I saw my daddy’s number, I knew he would probably be inviting Rhodes to the meeting. I sent him to voicemail and texted him Rhodes’s number. They could have that shit. I was done with all of it.
CHAPTER12
RHODES
“He stole their turf. So that nigga thinks that money is his. If he found you, he’s not gon’ stop until he has you, just like your people. I hate that for you, man.”
I rolled my eyes as I listened to Percy explain shit to me. He was a childhood friend of mine that I’d somewhat reconnected with when my parents got killed. I hadn’t talked to him but two or three times since their double funeral, but I needed to know what I was up against. If anyone knew, I figured it would be him. If by chance he didn’t know, he could surely find out a lot quicker than the Hendersons could.
