Chapter 10
Neo
Uncle and I were seated at the small kitchen table drinking coffee while Neeky cooked breakfast. I had no idea she could cook, as we were never in a domesticated situation.
Since arriving in the island, I’ve been preoccupied with finding the man who iced her parents that we haven’t spent much time relaxing. Before arriving, I had no clue where to look or who to question. It was sheer luck that Mass Joe was in a confession mode when I arrived.
When we finished this business, I planned to take some time alone with her, getting to know each other. I want our affection to grow deeply, becoming unbreakable.
However, today was the day I would deal with Rusty, and afterwards, deal with the politician. We could have easily done both at the same time, but I wanted to give them both my undivided attention.
“Breakfast is ready,” Neeky announced cheerily.
Neeky dished ackee and saltfish, with fried dumplings, and set before us, then dished her own and joined us. The meal was delicious, and I had her bring me seconds.
“I’m stuffed,” I groaned. “I love ackee, I need to take some back with me to Italy and I need a good cook.”
“Your mom can make it,” Neeky suggested.
I laughed. “My mom? In the kitchen, making Jamaican food?”
“She can’t cook?”
“Listen, my mom has been a DeLuca princess since she was a kid. My father said that my grandfather spoiled my mom ever since they met when she was thirteen.”
Neeky shook her head. “That doesn’t mean anything.”
“Neeks, if my mom knows how to boil an egg, I’ll eat my own sock.”
We all laughed at my mom’s inability to cook. Not only did grandad spoil her, but my father was also no different. For a man as dangerous as he was, he sure knew how to let her get away with anything. Sometimes I wonder if he feared my mom.
Uncle reached across the table to pat my hand. “What you plan on doing with the man?”
I stood and pushed my chair back. “Right now, Imma take shower.”
“Neo,” Neeky called after me when I walked away. “We’re serious. What you plan on doing?”
“Babes, Imma take a shower and we roll. OK?”
After my shower, I dressed in a royal blue suit with a crisp white shirt and a silver tie. I met Neeky in the living room and she was also dressed – tight jeans, burgundy top, and black heels.
“Wow you look sexy.” I grabbed her waist and pulled her to me. “I could ravage you right now.”
“Later Baby, let’s deal with the demon. Shall we?”
I knew she was anxious to serve Rusty his due justice, so I kissed her deeply then released her. We walked hand in hand to the room. The man keeping watch, stepped away from the door to allow us entry. Squeezing her hand, I asked her if she was ready as her hand was shaking.
“I’m ready.”
I pushed the door and we entered. Rusty was still tied up and gagged, the bag had been removed from his head, but he was blindfolded. He was lying on his side and appeared to be asleep when we entered the room. One of the Kings nudged him with his foot.
“Wake up, you fool,” the King said.
Rusty raised his head, and the king removed the gag and blindfold. I moved the few paces that separated us and came to stoop beside him.
“Yuh ready for some fun, Rusty Cock?” I sneered.
Now that the blindfold and gag were removed, he blinked and opened his eyes wide. Our eyes made four and I looked the into deep dark soul of evil.
