“I forgot to mention, Dr. Johnston will be flying out this evening and will continue to do your weekly checkups, so don’t get any fucking ideas.”

The elevator dinged before the doors opened. I hurriedly walked in, not caring that Manny was glaring at me again. I had to get the fuck out of there.

Chapter 16

Luther

Iwatched Addison’s ass unintentionally bounce as she damn near sprinted out of the room. If I wasn’t so in love with Denise, I would’ve made her my own. Addison and Denice had so many similarities that it was impossible not to recognize – smart mouth, independent, and pure. All they needed was for someone like me to break them into submission. Blood rushed to my dick with the thought of both of them on all fours on my bed.

I briefly closed my eyes and exhaled, attempting to calm the monster in my pants. I had to stay focused and stick to the plan. Within a month from now, Addison would be shipped overseas, and Denice will be married to me. I win.

“Xavier, any news from the trio and my beautiful Denise?” I asked, leaning against the doorframe of my office.

“No, just the same old same old. Ashlynn has been working in her new salon while Nicholas has been at the tire shops with her dad. Well actually, I heard her dad was heading back home to Cali and leaving Nicholas to take care of the shops. In my opinion, I think he’s doing really well. Way better than that dumbass, Bobby – may he rest in shit.”

I stared at Xavier. “I don’t give a damn how well the shop is doing. I’m not making any money off of it anymore.”

“Damn, my bad bro! I was just saying.”

“Yeah, anyway, what about bitch ass Ayzo?”

“He’s usually at the shops with Nicholas, or at Denice’s office, but that’s really it. Either Ayzo is super boring and sits around their house or he’s good at staying undetected. I mean, Nicholas and Ashlyn have been trying to stay hidden. They take different routes to work and make sure to observe their surroundings for the most part, but they aren’t that good at it. Ayzo on the other hand, that motherfucker is good.”

“Well, would you expect anything less from The Shadow? He must be the one showing Nicholas and Ashlynn how to observe their surroundings and not keeping the same routine.”

Xavier nodded. “That makes sense. We’ve been doing a decent job with keeping up with the pair but eventually, they’ll get better and then it’ll be harder to keep eyes on them. I think we need to make a move now before we lose track.”

I waved my hand, dismissing his suggestion. Sure, I could have ambushed Ashlynn and Nicholas, but it wasn’t time yet. I had to wait on the word from Mama K. Besides, without knowing Ayzo’s whereabouts at all times, our plan to finish what was started a year ago wouldn’t work. Plus, Ayzo wasn’t the onlyperson I didn’t have constant eyes on. I knew Seojun’s ass was around here somewhere, but the fucker stayed hidden in plain sight.

While he was playing hide and seek, Seojun managed to kill damn near everybody who crossed over from the Jaguars to the Cobras. I mean, I knew he was unhinged, but he’s single handedly slaughtered almost 50 men within the year. I used to pray for him to come out of hiding, but I didn’t think he would come out swinging so hard.

Thankfully, I still had the last five ex-Jaguars, who were close to Seojun, by my side. They knew how to get all of his money, massage parlors, escort houses, and community on my side. On top of that, they knew where the majority of his safe houses were. When I took over all of his territories across the Midwest, Seojun had no choice but to flee. The first two years were blissful, and I was on top of the world. I had money and power in the middle of my palm, and nobody could touch me.

This was all thanks to Mama K. She told me the truth about my past and came up with the plan to take back everything that belonged to me. First, I needed to blend in with the community. So, I started up a financial advisor business. Of course, it was fake and I used the money I made from my brothel houses to transfer in and out of there. To complete my image of a businessman, I needed a wife. I already knew who I wanted. Hell, I wanted Denice all to myself again. Imagine my surprise when I found out that Ayzo’s bitch ass was back in the picture. I wanted to be upset when I saw him at the bar with Denice a few months back, but it actually set everything in motion.

I took a pull from my blunt and exhaled. When Mama K gave me the plan, I was more than happy to oblige. When I learned the truth, I wanted Seojun to understand the why behind me ruining his life just like how that motherfuckaruined mine. She designed a strategy that was specifically for Seojun that she had in the development stages for years but when I saw Ayzo, it was finally ready to execute. I wanted to make all of their lives a living hell and taking the Jaguars from Seojun was just the beginning. Once I got rid of his little close-knit family and made sure no one else was by his side, then I’d go in for the kill. However, before we could get the plans in full motion, I needed to get Addison out of the way. Once I sold her to Mr. Omba, I would have enough money to take Denice and leave the country and we can live happily ever after while everyone else laid in their final resting place.

I motioned for Bruno and X to follow me as I headed back into the office. Sandy was still in position on her knees, where I left her. I’m glad that her back was facing Addison, or I would have to reveal who my closest informant was when it came to her behavior. When Cindy and Sandy told me that Addison was leaving with that other friend every morning to clean houses, I didn’t really give a damn. Hell, as long as she was keeping her legs closed and not messing with another nigga, she was good in my book. The only reason I got pissed off about the situation was because Bruno wasn’t paying attention to Addison. He literally had two task for his job – watch over her by keeping her a safe distance from niggas and driving her around. That’s it! So, for him to not even notice that she was gone every morning made me want to pistol whip his big bitch ass.

My phone chimed and I noticed it was Mama K. It didn’t matter what I was doing, I always stopped to answer her.

Mama K: Denice has been looking good and will be your perfect wife. You deserve her. Once your last assignment is gone, you can take her for yourself.

Me: Does that mean I can finally take out all of the trash?

Mama K. Yes. I’ll be down in a few days and then we can kill them all.

A wide smile spread across my face as I sat my phone down. I had been waiting for so long to get the ball moving and it was finally time.

“Sandy, go sit on the sectional but take the rest of them clothes off. You’re gonna be going to work in a second, I just need to handle something with Bruno.”

She nodded as she did what she was told. I smirked when I noticed Bruno’s ass watching her from the corner of his eyes.

“You see something you like, Bruno?”

He snapped his head back in my direction before he cleared his throat. “No, no sir.”

I huffed out a chuckle as I sat on the edge of my desk. “It’s okay, man. That’s what she’s there for. I’m not like your form boss, Seojun. You can participate in the merchandise as long as you pay. However, I won’t charge you this time.”
