Duke kissed his teeth, “QUIT PLAYING WITH YO COUSIN!”

“YOU GET THE FUCK OUT, HOE! I’m okay and I’ll think about it.”

“Thank youuuuuu! I’m grabbing clothes and going to Duke’s. Please answer your phone when I call you! Theres something else.”

“Bye. And lock my bathroom door!”

She looked around, “What the hell were you doing?”

“BYE DEVYN!”

Rolling her eyes, her pretty self spun around, heading out of the room. Once the lock turned and the door shut, I finally unclenched my legs, throwing the cover back. Tears ran down my cheeks as I covered my mouth, cracking up laughing.

“G, you almost fucking killed me!”

“I thought you wanted to die in between my legs?”

“You see I wasn’t fighting back.”

I chuckled as Kenzo slid up my body with his face red as hell. A moan escaped my lips before we even kissed each other. Warm air from his nose tickled above my lip as we both pressed into each other. I sucked on his bottom lip, moaning at the taste of my own pussy. He chuckled softly.

“You taste good...don’t you, Crybaby?” I nodded my head. “Come here, baby.”

He got up on his feet, pulling me up from under my arms. Our eyes never left each other’s as he pressed me to the headboard, lifting one of my legs until my foot was against the headboard above me. I couldn’t help but smirk at the flexibility we both knew I had. He shook his head and chuckled before leaning down, kissing me again.

My chin lifted up, allowing his hand more access to grip my throat. He slowly slid my body up by my leg and neck. I called out loudly as he slid me back down onto him, pressing his body into mine. My leg that was lifted immediately began to shake. He groaned as our warm bodies smashed together. He started pulsing his hips into me.

“Ohhhh shitttt!” I moaned out.

He licked up my foot and to my toes, putting them in his mouth. Instead of pushing in and out, he kept himself deep in me, thrusting repeatedly. My hands roamed all over his strong ass back. My lips kissed up and down his chest. Fuck.

I threw my leg not in the air around his waist. He picked me up even higher, slamming me back onto him. My nails dug into his shoulders as I tried to find a way to brace myself. To take it. Opening my eyes, I found his already opened, watching me. A satisfied yet hungry look on his face. He knows he fucks me good.

I held his beautiful ass face in my hands. Our foreheads fell together as we stared into each other. So many words were unsaid between us. So many feelings unexpressed. The truth was that I don’t know what will happen to Kenzo and I. I don’t know if our relationship will change forever. I just know I don’t want anyone else. How can I get over this pain? How can he?

“I’m cumming, Kenzo...” I whispered out of breath.

“Cum with me.”

Our lips pressed together as our bodies shook with love and fear. I held onto Kenzo, afraid to let him go. Afraid to live without him. He gripped onto me just as tightly, sharing that same fear.

We remained tangled up until both of our hearts returned to their normal speed. Kenzo slowly dropped into the bed, releasing my leg and pulling me into his chest. I could feel his eyes on me as mine closed.

I can explain but just know I don’t have to because this my nigga regardless!

Me and Kenzo didn’t speak nor see each other for two very strong weeks. I almost died when he blocked me while locked up. Like G, what the fuck was I supposed to do or feel knowing he was walking around Chicago a free man and I still couldn’t have him?

We take death dates very seriously. His brother’s was at the beginning of the third week without each other. I couldn’t have him like I wanted and his mama was keeping her promise. So I said fuck it. I flew in her, K2, Micah and Piper. I paid for a nice ass hotel suite. Her and I cooked together, making an entire feast for her to pack up and take to Duke’s. I also gave her my car to use for the surprise. Devyn pretended she was tattooing all day.

After cleaning the apartment, I just leaned onto the island. My heart ached at the thought of not being with him. I finally understood why he was so hurt he wasn’t seeing me before my parent’s death date. Any happy or sad memories, I’m supposed to be with Kenzo for.

The music playing through the apartment suddenly shut off. I looked towards the couch where my phone was but instead found K3 holding it. A minute went past before I realized he was really standing there after not seeing him. He had his key from Duke of course, but only for emergencies since Devyn lives here. He took a step towards me as I took one backwards towards my room.

“Kenzo... You’re supposed to be with your family.”

“You are my family, Cassandra. What you did for me and my brother...seeing my mother, father, and especially my dead brother’s daughter outside of jail...”

He began walking towards me as I walked backwards. His eyes were glossy and red rimmed. I gasped a little watching him snatch his shirt and beater off.
