Chapter 13: Devyn
It took me a few moments to calm my nerves when I got to my SUV. I was never one to fight over a man, but I wanted to wring Skylar’s neck. She ruined what could have possibly been between Kadeer and I. Oh, and Kala needed to be put in her place. Part of me blamed Kadeer for her behavior because he spent so much time trying to be the good guy that he was not putting his foot down when it came to Kala and her antics. I had only spent a few hours with her, and I knew that she was not being disciplined like she should have. I didn’t play that when it came to my kids. They knew where their place was, and they stayed in it. Sterling and I did not play that.

As soon as I sent the text to Devyn, I immediately regretted it. It’s not that I didn’t want to see her because that was furthest from the truth. Just from the short time of knowing Devyn, I could honestly say that she was what I needed in my life. She gave me something to look forward to. For years, my life had become one big routine of work, my children, and sleep just to start it all over again the next day. I wasn’t complaining one bit about my girls. After meeting Devyn, though, I realized all this time that Zion was right. I was a grown man, and it was OK for me to have a woman in my life. The best thing about it was that Devyn wasn’t just any random woma

Waking up to strong arms around me was a familiar feeling. I relaxed for a moment and enjoyed the feeling until I realized the arms that were making me feel so safe at the moment did not belong to my Sterling. They belonged to my Kadeer. My Kadeer, I thought to myself. It could have been the wine or the high from my orgasm talking when I agreed to give things with Kadeer a go, but I knew I couldn't back out because Brena would kill me, and Kadeer had already proven that he wasn't going down without a fight. No matter how much I tried to

“OK, Mr. Roman. We’re finished here. The process may take a while, so expect to hear back from us within a few months,” the friendly loan officer informed me. “OK, sounds great.

I felt like Kadeer’s girls being taken away was my fault. I felt so guilty that I tried to break up with him again, but he was not having it. Kadeer assured me that I was not to blame for Skylar’s childish behavior. I still felt bad and wanted to do everything in my power to help him. I just didn’t know what that was yet, but it was sure to be good. I couldn’t fathom going a day without my kids, so I knew Kadeer was going out of his mind. “Dr. Parks?” I heard, Dr. Cherry Moreau, head of the English department, call out my name. I was in my office, getting settled

Meeting Devyn’s father and brother for the first time under those circumstances was not what I intended. At the end of the day, I had to put my pride to the side and do what was best for my girls. I was just thankful that Devyn’s family was willing to work with me financially. Once everything settled down, I planned on making sure they had their money. As I pulled up on Skylar’s street, I parked a few houses down from Skylar’s house. It was the day she was going to get served, and I wanted to witness it. I wasn’t trying to be petty. With everything that had been going on, I needed to be sure that she actual

Kala coming to me with such a big issue warmed my heart. I had yet to go through getting a period with my own daughters, so doing it for Kala would be perfect practice and a great bonding experience. Our first interaction wasn’t the best, so I was honored that she came to me for something so important. Part of me felt bad that she couldn’t share the experience with her own mother, but she needed some there at that moment. I just happened to be that person. I wasted no time heading to Walmart to pick up the necessary items needed for a young girl’s first period. I also got the items to make my
