~~~Chapter 29~~~
Sitting with my arms folded, at the foot of our bed, I was pissed. My whole family was over at Riah’s house, celebrating Sin J’s win. However, after me and Malice left the arena, we headed home, because Malice was on complete bullshit.
“You really used to fucking with these peons, cause aint no way was you supposed to let that nigga get that fucking close!”
“He was behind me, and was catching me off guard!” I argued.
Malice leaned down, getting directly in my face. “I don’t give a fuck! You should’ve been slapping him, before I had the chance!”
I gulped, before softening my tone. “It was a lot going on. I didn’t have time to process everything.”
With his lips angrily curled, he poked my forehead with his index finger. “You lucky that I aint fucking you up.”
Feeling extremely emotional, a few tears rolled down my cheeks, as I sniffed. “I apologize if you feel like I disrespected you. That was never my intention.”
He remained directly in my face. “And it’ll never happen again, right?”
I nodded.
“And you cut off all contact with that nigga, like we discussed, right?”
“Yes.”
He stared at me.
“What?” I asked gently.
“If I find out that you lying to me…you’on wanna know, Jaylah. I’m telling you.”
I sighed. “Khamere, you and me both know that I aint on shit. You’re literally with me everywhere I go. I don’t even think about that man.”
“You better not.” He leaned in and kissed my lips. “My bad for being so rough with you. I just need you to understand, Jaylah. I’ll give you the world. Literally anything you ask for is yours. And all I want is your love and unwavering loyalty. It’s us and nobody else. I don’t care what the situation is, you ride withme.”
“And I do, and I will,” I responded with no hesitation.
He hesitated. “You saying that now…but this shit might be put to the test in ways that you never imagined.”
I licked my lips. “And that’s fine too.”
He smirked. “Okay, I hear you. Now, let’s talk about what your sister was saying.”
I snickered a bit, as his intense ass was still directly in my face. “Do you gotta be so close?”
“Yeah. Until I get the answers I need. What was she talking about?”
I sighed. “She asked if I was pregnant.”
“Well, are you?”
“Really?”
“Yeah, really. Answer the question.”
I shrugged. “I don’t know. I haven’t taken a test.”
He gave me a side eye. “But you haven’t had a period in a minute.”
I nodded. “I know.”
