“I won’t stand by and let this guy hurt you. If he threatens you again, if he shows up at your place or at Bliss, you better fucking tell me and Emerson immediately. You got it?” he scolded. She nodded her head slowly, and then Stone leaned down and kissed her softly on the lips.
They both heard her belly rumble, and they chuckled.
Stone smiled against her lips. “Hungry?”
She nodded her head.
“Let’s eat, and then we’ll do dessert all over again.”
She smiled.
“Sounds perfect to me,” Emerson whispered then kissed her fingers before he rose from the bed.

“So the bitch didn’t scare too easily, huh?” Marty Mollicone asked his nephew, Vince.
“No. She didn’t. And those guys you hired to do the drive-by, fucked up by using bullets besides firecrackers. I thought you were going to be discreet?” Vince asked.
“She’s ignoring the threatening notes. We’ll start making some phone calls and see if that shakes the bitch up. Are you making any progress getting her to come around and forgive you?” his dad, Butch, asked.
“No. But I think I might be able to come up with a way that will get her to trust me again, and fall back into my arms,” Vince told them.
“How the hell are you going to do that?” Marty asked as he folded his arms in front of his chest. His gold watch and gold bracelets clanked together in the movement. The man’s belly seemed to be getting fatter and fatter every time Vince saw him.
“Well. There are these two guys who have been coming into Bliss.”
“Two guys? Who are they? Are they trying to move in on the store and the building?” Marty asked, leaning forward in the seat.
“Let my son talk, will ya?” Butch interrupted then gave a wave to Vince to continue.
“Well, these two guys have been sniffing around. Toni went out with them one night. I found out, harassed her at her apartment, and threatened to hurt them. She, of course, saw the two guys anyway.”
“Wait. You said two guys? So which one is she banging?” Marty asked.
Vince inhaled through his nose and clenched his teeth. Butch gave Marty a light slap to his chest. “Cool it. Can’t you tell his heart is broken? The bitch is fucking some other guy when she belongs with Vince,” Butch stated.
“Two guys,” Vince said then exhaled before running a hand over his face.
“What?” Marty asked.
“Son, she’s fucking two guys?”
Vince nodded his head. Marty whistled as he leaned back in his chair.
“It’s the quiet ones you have to watch out for. Damn, she must be something else in the sack,” Marty added.
“Anyway, I caught this chick watching the two guys outside the building when they were visiting. As a matter of fact, just this morning, the woman was there today. I made some calls. Turns out she’s got a lot of money, and she wants the two guys.”
“So what? You planning on playing cupid or something and intervening?” Butch asked.
“No. The two guys are fucking loaded. They buy out companies and rebuild them or sell them for profit. They also start franchises.”
“They are after Antoinette’s business!” Marty exclaimed.
“No, they’re not. They are interested in landing my woman. They’ve been with her nearly every night the last two weeks. I can’t even get into her place.”
“So what’s your fucking brilliant idea?” Butch asked.
