Kindle Notes & Highlights
Since Naheim had found out about me and Kincaid, his feelings were hurt. I had made his chest hurt and he couldn’t take it that I could get back at him and the lick hurt that much more.

While Tasha stood over me, I thought maybe the music had been too loud and added in with how loud it was in the restaurant, maybe my hearing was messed up. I know good as hell that this woman did not just say she was pregnant by my husband.

“Oh my goodness, Capri!” Lottie shrieked, as I jumped from my seat and sent my fist crashing right into Tasha’s mouth.

He knew how much both Tasha and Ella hurt me, and he decided to add to the hurt. It was bad enough that I had to deal with Ella being part of my family, but then to hear that Tasha fucked my husband and was pregnant by him pushed me over the edge.
Joie had her whole life ahead of her and now she was just a body in the ground. My heart hurt every day when I thought about her. It was hard not to think about her because she meant that much to me. People always complained about teenagers using the love word and how we didn’t know what it meant. I knew what love was because I loved Joie and wanted forever with her.
Timmy fucking raped her and then shot her because she told the truth about the shit. I knew something seemed off with Joie after the party. She distanced herself from me, and whenever I was with Timmy she never wanted to be around.
as if he couldn’t be a worse human being smh tasha fucked this boy’s life but timmy continued that shit and went into overdrive
Erin was going to be the perfect mother because she was so caring. I could wince and she would be ready to try to solve my problem within that second. I never appreciated her until I had almost lost my life. Everything she had been preaching to me about, she was right about. She had told me that Timmy was no good and I called her a hater and even talked shit about her.
I knew he would die before he allowed harm to come her way. Erin had never been big on dating, so seeing her in love and so submissive to Capone, it was like witnessing another woman. Erin always had to be in control, and now she allowed Capone to run things, while adding her two cents every once in a while.
I walked over toward him and rushed into his arms. He slowly put his arms around me and rubbed my back, kissing me on the head. “Thank you, Capo.” “You never have to thank me, Kid. I always got you… alright?” I never had a father figure because mine was taken from me. Capone was the closest thing I had to having a father figure that I could look up to. He wasn’t just concerned with my sister. He cared about all of us as a whole.
Clear as day, Timmy was caught mid stride across the street near the corner store. Tasha didn’t have any other kids, and Timmy damn sure never mentioned a brother from his father’s side. All the hair on the back of my neck stood at attention, while the hate pierced through the beating of my heart. My heart went still as I studied the picture. He faked his death while Joie really had to be buried. He gets to walk around like everything is all good while I had to bury the love of my life.
I wanted to tell Capone about Capri, but I also wanted to respect Capri’s wishes. Even though me and her brother was engaged, my friendship and sisterhood with her was important. I was learning how to navigate both of the relationships without mixing them together. Capone had told me things that he didn’t want his sister to know, and I respected that.
“Oh, my. The baby,” I kneeled over, holding my stomach while feeling guilty for using our child as an excuse. Capone stopped in his tracks and rushed over toward me. “What’s the matter, Baby? You need to go to the hospital?” “No, I just had a little pain in my back.” “Why you holding your stomach?”
My toxic trait was trying to find a way to help someone when the problem wasn’t mine. I could still support Capri, but I couldn’t fix her problems. I was no better than Capone when it came to Capri. I felt protective over her, especially knowing how Tasha and Ella did her.
“Wait, she hasn’t called you since she been in there?” “Nah. I even tried to see her in person, and they sent me away. The lawyer did go up there and speak to her.” He sighed. “She got arrested on Saturday, so it wasn’t shit he can do to get her out. She has to see the judge. They’re charging her with aggravated assault.”
“You need to stay the fuck away from her before they haul her off to the back for trying to kill you. Why would you ever put your wife in a position like this?” “You bypassing the fact that she was fucking Kincaid? My homie… Capone’s worker. I fucked up by fucking Tasha, but Capri isn’t fucking innocent either.”
that may be true but had you not started cheating in the first place she wouldn’t need to find someone else
I turned around and looked, and the car was being super aggressive, by trying to cut Kincaid off. It was like he was trying to keep him away from our car. “It looks like he’s trying to keep us.” Pow. Pow. Pow. We both ducked when we heard gunshots.
switch lanes, squeezing between the big ass tractor trailer. All the cars were swerving and trying to get the hell out of dodge. Soon as the car realized what we were doing, Capri winked, as she let off shots into the car, causing the car to spin out of control.

I couldn’t relish in what I did because I was still shaking. The look in that man’s eyes when he was about to pull the trigger would forever haunt me. If it came down to him or me and my unborn child’s life, I was going to ride.
“I’m telling you to leave me alone right now. If you wanna talk, don’t go poking your fucking lip out when I bark on you.” I could still see the hints of murder in his eyes as he drove and ignored me. I tried to touch his hand, and he removed it from mine. Capone never resisted my touch and the fact that he didn’t want to be bothered hurt me.
“Cause you need to listen to your fucking man, Erin!” he roared. His voice caused me to jump, and he would usually come to me to make it better, but he stayed there. “You carrying my fucking baby and you thought this was a smart idea? You fucking smarter than that. My fucking heart damn near stopped when I realized you were fucking gone.”
He kneeled down and kissed my stomach, hugging me close to him. I always had a bit of stomach, so I never knew how much was the baby and how much was fat. I guess the hardness proved it wasn’t much of the fat and more of the baby. If I ever needed to know how much this man loved me, today proved how much he loved me.
Capri was running on adrenaline so long that when she finally came down, her arm was in so much pain. I don’t even shoot a Desert Eagle with one hand, and the fact that she did it and had the strength to drive back to the house spoke volumes. I always underestimated my sister, and she proved that she could hold her own, and she protected my baby for me.
Ella was still on my shit list with the shit that she pulled. “Ew, you could have answered the phone a bit happier. What’s wrong… your girlfriend not making you happy anymore.” She snickered, almost happy that I might be unhappy with Erin. “I know she’s not making you happy. Probably pisses you off that she gets to ride this dick whenever she wants, and you can’t… riding it so much is what got her carrying my seed now.”
Hers was rooted in her personal feelings for me and mine was because she was reckless with my fucking son. She brought the enemy around my son and thought that shit would be cool. She was so busy trying to make me jealous that she was putting herself and our child in harm’s way and I didn’t like that shit.
She sat the files down and looked across the desk at us. “We’ve done all the testing along with the new sonogram scans. Your baby has Down syndrome. We’ve made sure to run everything twice and even looking at the scans from your specialist, we can confirm she has Down syndrome.” “She?” Erin whispered.
