“Consider it done,” Rilwan responds.
My dad rises from his seat, his eyes blaring, his chest heaving in anger, we both know who has the power. “You’ll destroy men’s careers for a cheating woman?” he shouts. I don’t blink.
“I gave you the option to call them off, the end of their careers is on you.” We stare each other down, neither blinking. Both frustrated with each other.
“I will destroy a thousand men for Jade, like I said before, I don’t joke when it involves Jade, and for the record, not like you care. I’m certain Jade isn’t cheating and there’s an explanation for that picture.”
Without a word to me, he heads for the door, dialing on his phone. I can tell he’s trying to call the men off before Rilwan gets to them. I give a loud grunt. I can’t believe him; he has some men following Jade. I pace in my office to control my anger.
I can’t work now. I look out at the beautiful beach. I don’t want to call Jade, but I do anyway.
“Hi Gent.”
“Milady.”
“Is everything okay, you don’t usually call at this time, are you okay Naseer?” I can hear the concern in her voice.
“I’m fine, just wanted to hear your voice. What’s that noise.”
“I’m at a restaurant with my cousin Yomi. He surprised me today, he just got engaged. I’m having dinner with them. I’ve spent the day with them.” That’s the answer I’ve been searching for the fake vampire cousin.
“Is that the cousin that tries to bite your neck like a vampire?”
“The same,” she says laughing “I’m surprised you remembered.”
“Then he’s the same one that kept you from me in Texas and refused to give me your number.”
“Yep, it’s him and I just told him about us, and he promised not to tell Aunty Lara.”
“Maybe, we’ll like him a little.” she laughs.
“Naseer, can we talk later, they are ready to leave. I’ll call you when I get back to my room.”
“Okay, Jade, tell your cousin congratulations.”
“I will, bye my gent. Talk soon.”
I hung up. I would love to hold her right now and kiss her senselessly. I know there is an explanation for the picture. That’s all they could get, and my dad rushes in here with information that means nothing. I’ll apologize for shouting at him but no apology for protecting Jade.
NASEER
Ittookanotherweekbefore I could return to my Jade. My uncle was right, we found the hidden money in between the details, though smart we managed to uncover it, and the cabinet member was immediately removed.
As soon as I found the answer, I raced to the airport with Rilwan. By the time I landed in Chicago, it was late, but I didn’t care. Jade had her bags ready. I’d missed her so much.
Jade is sleeping, I have ravished and possessed her body repeatedly. I’m watching her sleep. I’m not happy about her plans. She’s going to Lagos for the summer and her cousin’s wedding, then to South Africa to visit her aunt and uncle that’s two months that I won’t get to see her or longer depending on how my schedule shapes out. Which for the most part is unpredictable.
Raheem calls stating he’s not feeling well he wants me to attend the meeting atTHE HOUSEan exclusive club of men and a few women, where we trade industry secrets and get richer daily without having to break a sweat.
But something else gets traded that’s not formally written ‘Sex’The members bring partners, if another member shows interest in said partner it becomes free for all. They can approach unless the said partner is wearing a gold beaded bracelet that was incorporated after, a partner’s wife was solicited. It caused a big rift and new rules were created to eliminate another rift.
I don’t want to take Jade to this gathering, and I don’t want to leave her here for roughly eight hours. Jade will either leave or grab her laptop and mentally lock me out. We barely have enough time together as it is. I don’t want her to leave. I exhale my frustration.
I’ll take Jade with me. I’m not missing out on spending time with her. I decided to call Raheem.
“Nas.”
“How are you feeling?”
