JACKIE
My blood boiled with rage and jealousy. So if I hadn’t come in when I did, Keith would have had his way with that bitch.
She was in the exact position I wanted to be, desperately; bent below Keith Von Quavo, with my lips wrapped around his huge cock.
Keith didn’t know this, but I had seen his cock in its glory.
More than once.
I had watched him when he didn’t know I was, and wished every single time that he could slide into me and pound me ruthlessly until I climaxed.
Keith had the sexiest cock I had ever laid my eyes on, and someday, it would all be mine. He would plunge into me while I moaned his name, and afterwards, I would swallow his cum.
“Jackie,” Keith snapped, bringing me back to reality.
My nipples tightened with arousal, and I craved for Keith’s firm fingers to squeeze them tightly. I wanted to experience that bittersweet taste of pain and pleasure.
“Have you even been listening?” Keith asked me.
My head was so filled with illicit thoughts and imaginations of Keith that I couldn’t fathom what he was saying.
“Listening to what?” I asked dumbly.
Keith hissed in irritation.
“You dragged me out here but can’t even concentrate?” Keith asked.
I bet he was pissed off and irritated simply because I stopped him from fucking that little girl’s brains out when it should have been me.
“Is this a joke or something?” Keith asked further, getting more and more pissed and irritated.
“No, it’s not,” I responded.
I had to say something without sounding like an idiot.
“Then where the fuck is your mind?” He asked me.
“It’s right here,” I answered.
“You know what, let’s just get to the institution. I can’t deal with all this right now,” Keith said.
Well, it was better for me, because then it would give me the change to wish and daydream about Keith without interruption.
But I couldn’t stop thinking about her.
The more I thought about her, the angrier I became. I had never been jealous of any woman that Keith fucks around with, because I knew that it was never serious. He was allowed to exercise his dick, but I owned it.
I owned it, and soon enough, it would be a reality.
I couldn’t ask Keith anything about her, because he obviously wouldn’t respond to it. I tried in his study, but he wasn’t playing along. Keith claimed that he had never told me about his personal business, but he lied. On the contrary, he had never been discreet about it.
So why was she different?
What was so special about her that he wouldn’t answer a single question about her?
Keith and I had not just been business partners for years, but also close friends. I always felt that after screwing half of the women to his satisfaction, we would end up together.
That was how it worked, right?
I had seen it play out several times before. Two close friends always end up together. After being with other people, they would come to realize that there was no one else for them other than the friend who has been in their lives all along.
Keith would not be different, and I would not allow a girl young enough to be in college come in and take what’s rightfully mine.
I had to cut short my thoughts when we arrived at the institute, run by Keith and I.
Von Quavo had set it up originally, and when expansion came, he bequeathed it to us. Actually, Keith’s ideas and hard work had caused it to expand in ways that Von never expected. He wanted to swindle Keith when it became intense, and there was some sort of misunderstanding. At that time, I was away on training, so I didn’t really know what occurred in detail.
By the time I got back, I simply believed that it had been resolved, especially when Von officially handed it over to Keith and me. People rumored that it was my connection and relation with Von that made him include me in it, but I know that I have also been hardworking.
We met Saint Alexander waiting for us.
“Thank God you got here right on time. I was beginning to worry,” Saint said.
“You could have called,” Keith said stiffly.
Like he picked mine.
He probably wouldn’t have answered Saint’s call because he was busy with that young girl.
“Jackie assured me that she was going to come here with you,” Saint said to defend himself.
Keith stormed into the institute, and I knew that this was him swinging into action already.
Saint turned to follow Keith but I stopped him by grabbing his hand.
“I have questions,” I said stiffly.
“About Keith?” Saint asked.
“Yes,” I answered.
Saint sniggered.
“I knew it…it always has to be about Keith with you,” he said lightly. “I don’t know why you keep denying to yourself when we all know that you are madly in love with him,” Saint added.
“I am not in love with him,” I snapped.
It was a lie, but Saint was Keith’s best friend, and I didn’t want to complicate things between Keith and I until I was sure about how Keith felt about me.
“Who is she?” I asked Saint tightly.
He smirked but didn’t say exactly what was in his mind.
“I bet you asked Keith and he didn’t say, right?” Saint asked me.
I didn’t like how lightly Saint was handling this. Deep down, I felt that there was something I should be worried about going on, or about to go on, and I didn’t like it. I didn’t like things getting out of my control.
“Don’t play this stupid game with me,” I cautioned Saint. “Tell me who she is, right now!” I demanded from him.
“Mia Artwoods,” Saint simply said, but that wasn’t enough for me.
“Who is she to Keith?” I asked him.
“I don’t think I have the right answer to that, but if he bought her from the sex house for one hundred and fifty million, then you should be worried,” Saint revealed.
I thought I was going to pass out right there and then.
What did I just hear?!
KEITHMia’s question took me off guard.“Why would you ask me that?” I asked her worriedly.“All the rules to keep me caged in here,” she responded, tears gathering in her eyes. “I am not keeping you caged, Mia,” I told her, broken to see her tears.“Then what is this about?” She asked painfully.The sound of her voice made my chest hurt badly. I had come to care so much about her that her pain had become mine. I wouldn’t have said anything to her. Before now, I would have let her believe whatever it was that she wanted to believe. As long as I was keeping her safe, I didn’t give a damn how she felt about it, but it wasn’t like that anymore. The last thing I wanted was to see her crying.“I am just trying to protect you,” I told her.“From what? Protect me from who?” She asked deeply. Then before I could give her a response, she added, saying, “You already bought me, so what else?”Her words pierced my heart. Mia had gotten this all wrong. She had no idea what lay ahead of her out th
MIAEver since I realized that I was strong enough to stand and walk, I had been waking up with so much joy and energy.“I can’t wait to use the library today!” I said with bubbling excitement.Now, I wouldn’t be so bored because there would be something to do. I was so excited that I could barely remember Athena’s outburst. However, I noticed now that she didn’t share in my excitement.“What’s wrong, Athena?” I asked her worriedly.Athena looked at me, and I could see sadness in her eyes. “I shouldn’t have acted the way I did yesterday, and I am sorry,” she apologized deeply, melting my heart.“I am not angry, Athena,” I told her.“Are you sure?” She asked wistfully.“We are friends, Athena, why would I be angry?” I asked her.Her eyes caught the time and she gasped.“What is it?” I asked again.“You are to have breakfast with Mr. Keith in his dining room,” she told me.I looked at her with shock.“That sounds like an instruction,” I said.“When Mr. Keith called me to his study yes
KEITH “I don’t want Terrace to be the one to call first,” I told Cain. “He might just be suspecting something if he happens to call first and I deliver the news,” I added.A part of me still felt skeptical about the whole thing. Cain had initially come up with a story.“All you have to do is tell Terrace that we delayed in getting back, so as you promised, you had to send one of your bodyguards to find them. Unfortunately, he found out that we had both been killed. As a matter of fact, he was only able to escape by sheer luck, and as a result of that, he couldn’t get their bodies,” Cain had stated.“You want me to lie to Terrace that you are dead?” I had asked Cain, surprised at his story.I had to ask him deeply and carefully because I felt that he hadn’t thought about the story thoroughly.“Yes, boss,” Cain had answered, confirming that he knew exactly what he was saying. “Why would I do that? Do you have any idea what that implies?” I had questioned Cain deeply.“Yes, I do, boss,
JACKIE “Why would I want to do that?” She asked me, her voice too loud for comfort.“Can you not raise your voice?” I pleaded with her but she sized me up with her eyes.If it wasn’t for what I needed, she would have had her hair pulled right away, and she definitely would be at her doctor’s for a couple of days. Men didn’t even dare speak to me like this, or stare at me with disdain, much less women. Even Madeline Dmitrii couldn’t stand my power. “Ma’am, you are wasting my time and I don’t even have it to give in the first place,” she retorted.Then she made to walk past me into the tavern, but I was faster. I grabbed her with one hand, and before she could scream, I covered her mouth with my other hand. Then I dragged her effortlessly to my car, shoved her in and pinned the door. Before she could unpin the car lock to get out, I was already inside the car, and I pulled out my gun.“I wouldn’t do that if I were you,” I told her just when her finger was about to reach for the car l
JACKIEI sat on my desk, trying to get some work done, but it just wasn’t working.“How do I get something to give Keith?” I kept asking myself.This was the question that had been running through my mind for days now. The good thing was that Tessa was out of the way, so I didn’t have to worry about that, and just yesterday, I spoke to Bertha, and she already agreed to do it…heartily.However, I still wasn’t satisfied. How could I possibly be? I felt like I was in the dark not knowing what was going on in Keith’s mansion.Had Mia recovered?Had her condition gotten worse or better?How about Keith’s murder issue?What exactly what going on?“Arghhh!” I yelled in agony, almost pushing off everything on my table to the ground.This was all too frustrating. Calling Keith was not even an option because he hardly ever took my call. Since the last time I called and I didn’t have any tangible news to give him, he had barely taken my call or called me back.“He is giving all his damn attent
KEITH “Are you going to get some rest?” I asked Cain.He had been thinking nonstop since our last conversation, and I feared that he was going to have a migraine from it.“The clock is ticking, boss,” Cain responded.“We have until evening to tell Terrace about Julian’s death, and that is enough time if you ask me,” I said.However, deep down, I was equally worried.I had also been thinking, but for the life of me, I couldn’t come up with something convincing enough. Terrace sent his best bodyguard to me. Julian was probably as important to him as Cain was to me, and I could already imagine how he would take it.It could be as worse as finding out about my involvement with what happened to Don Milano.“What I want is for you to get some rest. The more rested you are, the faster you will heal,” I added.“I am fine,” Cain insisted.“But I need you to be at your best,” I told him. “I only killed Julian, not get into war with ten mafias,” Cain responded.He was playing around with me, a
