Tabitha:

I was outside with Drew, his hand on my waist as he comforted me. My eyes stung, my throat burned, but I was going to be fine.

Drew sat me down on the porch and waited for me to catch my breath. I smiled at him with teary eyes, and he chuckled.

“I really have no idea what to do,” he said. “I would bring you water, but that was what you choked on. So that would be a bad call.”

I laughed, even though my throat felt like sandpaper. He was nice to talk to. Pleasantly chatty and was very invested in his career in cuisine. As much as I had been facing him for most of dinner, I was only half-listening.

On my shoulders, I could feel Enzo’s jealous glare. I ignored him, but heard the times that he tried to come to Natasha’s aid when she was getting chewed out by her dad. I kept a straight face the entire time, but inside, I was grinning like that cat in Alice in Wonderland. And here I thought that I was going to have to be the one to show her up. Cheers, Mr. Bolden.

    EnzoI was fuming, but I couldn't resist the way she looked up at me from across my knee. Her skin was soft and supple. I planted a soft kiss on her right cheek and watched her shudder. She looked so fucking beautiful like this. I reach into my pocket, a smirk on my face. I stopped at the shop to buy it. It was already connected to my phone. I hit the on button and the ball vibrated with a soft hum. I placed it on her soaking sex and she screamed and squirmed on my lap. I held her in place. "You aren't going anywhere, Princess." I pressed it harder on her lips and watched her toes curl and twist while she bit my trousers to keep from screaming. "E-E-Enz..." She gasped and gripped my leg. Her body stiffened. The desperate little thing was already close to her climax. I chuckled softly. Like I would ever let that happen. I pulled it away and turned it off on my phone. She was panting, shivering. I smiled. I was nowhere near done. "Relax, Princess." With my fingers, I spread

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    114. Tabitha

    Tabitha:I had never had such a boring day in my entire life—sprawled on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling and babbling to Nora and Emily. Nora was in much better spirits. She had just gotten news from Gregory that they had returned his licence. They had decided that it was an error, a false report. I said nothing and simply listened to her laugh, giggle and drool over Gregory. I was happy for her. I just hoped that Gregory was worth it. Emily, on the other hand, was, for about an hour, hounding me about details of the casino. “I have always wanted to go to the Vogue,” she had said, like an enthusiastic puppy, “but I heard that they are super exclusive and only let people with crazy money in.”I laughed. It was very exclusive, and as happy as I was for winning one game, I didn’t think it was a place that I wanted to go back to again. Just thinking about it made me smell the whiskey and cigars all over again, and a shudder rippled through my body as I remembered the stares I got

    Enzo:My finger hovered above the keyboard. I wasn’t sure how long I had been frozen in that position: eyes blankly looking at my laptop screen as my fingers floated above the home keys. I was exhausted. I had barely gotten any sleep last night. I couldn’t stop thinking about the casino, about how the Consigliere touched and smiled at Tabitha. I didn’t know him well, but I knew him well enough to know that he wanted something from her. What drove me crazy was that I hadn't the slightest idea of what it was. He wanted something. If there were unfinished business with the Red Mafia, Vincent would have told me before he died. “Fuck!” I hissed and slumped back in my chair. My hand wiped my face, and I heaved a heavy sigh. It was exhausting. The last thing I needed was the Mafia on my tail. I had worked so hard to keep my hands clean and avoid business with them, but now I’m dragged, and it was all because of Vincent. The laptop screen went black, and I took that as a sign to close it u

    Tabitha:The cashier did a double-take at me, his hand still hovering above the chips that he was supposed to be counting for me. “Are you sure that you are the one who won all of this?” he asked again, looking at me nervously and then around me. I nodded, but as I tried to turn around, the man who had escorted me stopped me with a hand on my shoulder. “Keep looking at the cashier,” he snarled, and a shiver ran through my spine. That was when I heard it: The whispers, the slight rowdiness of the room. Some men were whispering, and a few waiters were giving me dirty looks through the corners of their eyes. I had walked into this place with so much awe, but slowly, I could feel the fear creeping in. “I want to get my money and go, Sir,” I said, urgency in my voice as I moved closer to the booth. “I assure you that I won fair and square.”But still, the cashier hesitated. His eyes moved from me to the chips, to the room that was slowly getting rowdier by the second. I heard a few cha

    Enzo:Why did she pick tonight of all nights to be a brat?! I looked at my cards. My mind was racing, but my face was as stiff as a board. I had played poker to know that I had a shitty hand. I was not going to win, unless by some miracle, but I couldn’t fold. The Consigliere had taken away that option. Tabitha refused to make eye contact with me and stared blankly at her cards; her expression was unreadable. She was way too deep in the game to pull out now, and I knew she wasn't going to fold. She was just going to stay in the game to piss me off. Fuck!The turn round started, and the dealer took five of spades from the community pile. Tabitha bet twenty thousand in the pot. The Consigliere immediately raised it to fifty thousand dollars. The air was suddenly uneasy. “Call,” I said blankly when it got to my turn, and the Consigliere smiled at me, his eyes expressionless. I hated it. The man after me flopped, and the person next to him called, his voice cracking slightly, but not e

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    110. Tabitha

    Tabitha:I said nothing and simply snatched my arm from his grip. I was still mad at him, and I didn’t want him touching me. The Vogue Casino was bright—too bright. My eyes hurt from the neon lights of the signboard. At the entrance, a tall man in a suit that was a bit too small for him stood with a book. He looked at the couple in front of us and, without even a second, he called the guards to drag them away. I watched in horror as the man and his girlfriend were pulled away, the lady screaming hysterically at the top of her lungs. “Next!” the man called, and Enzo and I stepped forward. The man took one look at us and let us in. My heart was racing. He didn’t even ask our names.I had only seen casinos in movies, and now, I was right inside one. The lights were dim, and the smell of whiskey was thick in the air. All around, I could hear men cheering with joy and groaning from losses. Chips clicked, cards were everywhere. It was both intriguing and terrifying. Enzo and I had barely
