"What? You fuck her too?"
"Prettiest titties I ever saw, but she couldn’t fuck her way out of a paper bag," Bobby said.
Black shook his head and opened the office door. Bobby followed him in.
"Black; Bobby," Sherman Williams said and stood up to shake hands. He had been running numbers out of that store for years. Sherman also had a reputation for keeping his mouth shut and his ears opened.
"What’s goin’ on, Sherman?" Bobby asked.
"Money. Lots of fun and lots of money. Same as every other day. What brings you two high-rollers up here?"
"You heard about Kenny?" Black asked.
"Yeah, I heard about it. Shame, too—dirty shame. Kenny was good people. Honest as far as that goes in this business."
"You heard anything about who killed him?" Bobby asked him.
"I ain’t heard shit about Kenny. But I tell you what I have been hearin’. And I can’t say that it had anything to do with Kenny, but I keep hearin’ it from a lot of people—people who know what’s up—that something big is gettin’ ready to go down around here," Sherman told Black and Bobby.
"That does us a lot of fuckin’ good," Black said. "Something’s gonna happen, something big, but you don’t know what."
"Sorry, Black, that’s all I got, but I’ll let you know if I hear anything else."
"You do that."
"Have you talked to Luke?"
"No."
"I did hear that he was with Kenny last night when it happened."
"Why didn’t you tell us that shit before?"
"Sorry," Sherman said as he watched Black and Bobby walk out.
CHAPTER SEVEN
When Nick got to JR’s, Rain was more than ready for him. She was all over him as soon as he walked in her office. Once she had gotten her fill, Rain got dressed and ready to go. "You don’t mind if I ride, do you?"
"No, come on," Nick said and turned around. Rain followed him out of the club and to his car; neither had much to say to the other while they drove. Rain sat and stared out the window, thinking about what Blue had said to her. I know he must be rollin’ over in his grave ’bout the shit you doin’.
When Rain was young, JR took her everywhere with him. That’s why she was so much like him. Back then she was daddy’s little girl and there was nothing m
ore important to Rain than pleasing her father. But as she got older things began to change. Rain was always in trouble and her brother Miles, the straight-A student, became JR’s favorite. No matter what Rain did to impress him it was always wrong. "No, Lorraine, do it this way," she remembered JR telling her so many times in her life.
She knew her father wouldn’t approve of what she was doing. It was always like that. If it wasn’t exactly what JR wanted it was wrong. But JR was dead and Rain had to do what she knew how to do; what she’d always done. Having money and power behind her just made things easier, and her association with Nick gave her that power. It was the perfect arrangement except for one thing.
Wanda Moore.
Whenever Rain would get a little too comfortable with Nick, Wanda would always come along to jerk her back to reality. It didn’t bother her when they first got together. But every time Nick would get out of her bed to go be with another woman, it would remind her that Nick was Wanda’s man and she was just the bitch he was fuckin’ behind her back.
"What we doin’ here?" Rain asked when Nick pulled up in front of Clay’s Garage.
"Something’s goin’ on and there are people that don’t think I know what’s goin’ on."
"Bo."
"We’re here to show them that I know everything," Nick said and got out of the car. Rain put one in the chamber and followed Nick in the building.
