“Nah. I made plans for us to go swimming with the dolphins.” “Capone Winston Delgato, don’t play with me. I’ve explained to nearly everybody how dangerous those things are.”
her beef with dolphins😂😂😂😂
I remember I used to daydream about having a man that would fly me out when I was stressed. It would be nothing to him to send me on a trip for a few days because he knew I had a stressful week. Little did I know, I was manifesting my future with Capone.
good really sent capone to her
We heard sniffles and turned to see Capri wiping away her tears. “I’m sorry… I just want love like this one day.” “Capri, I’m sor—” “Nope. You’re not about to worry about me and my situation today. It’s about you, and we need to leave to the spa. Your husband to be arranged for a pregnancy massage before hair and makeup.”
ugh i know this is hard for her to quienes but your moment is coming baby doll 🥹
When I first met Capone, I never pictured that I would marry him. He has made me feel comfortable since I met him, and he has always been real with me. I never had to guess his motives because he showed me from day one.
I LOVE THIS FOR HER
“I wished Ryai was here. She would have loved it here… and had me hype.” I could always count on Rye to always get me hype and to hype any moment up. She would have had me laughing and crying at the same time because she was so silly. I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t miss her.
i’m really shocked she hasn’t even tried reaching out to erin
His cousin’s cook didn’t show up, and Jean didn’t mind rolling up her sleeves and helping in the kitchen. Before I knew it, both Jean and Jo were in the kitchen cooking and laughing like old friends. I enjoyed seeing my aunt laugh and have someone to laugh with. After losing my mom, she probably felt like she lost the only friend she had in the world.
awwww thats sooo wonderful
“What’s wrong?” Capri came into the room and kneeled down beside Jo. “Is everything alright with the baby?” “Yes. She’s just missing her cousin.” Jo smiled at Capri and pushed a loose strand of her hair behind her ear. Capri rubbed the back of my hands. “I’m sorry. I know I can’t measure up to your cousin, but I promise to make tonight everything that you want it to be. If you need help peeing, I can help too.”
LMAOOO capri is everything and it’s crazy how ella and tasha had done her wrong because she’s literally a sweetheart! ryai ain’t right for this.
“You should go out there to get your seat.” I tried to usher him out the room so I could have a minute to have a breath alone. “Daddy isn’t here to walk you down the aisle. I don’t remember much about him, E, but I know that he would have been here to walk you down this aisle if he could. I want to step in his place and walk you down the aisle and give you away.”
STAWP HE’S WALKING HER DOWN THE AISLE TO GIVE HER AWAY 😭😭😭😭
He may have not felt as deeply as I did because he didn’t have as many years as I had with them. I wished God had a magic wand and could bring them to me just for this day. I was going to marry my dream man, and they never got to meet him. “I know… I love you, E. I’m here, and if you will have me, I would like to give you away.” He kissed my cheek.
jaiden has really matured i’m so proud of him
He hadn’t turned around to see me because he was talking to the officiant. CJ tugged on his father’s shirt and pointed over toward me. Time stopped in place for a bit as we both stared at each other. His voice was stuck in his throat as he locked eyes with me. He took the napkin from the officiant. “Is he crying?” Jaiden whispered.
he’s so in love with my girl
“You’ve walked this journey with just the two of you alone… I’m,” he cleared his throat and looked down at CJ, “We’re not letting you walk alone again… I got ya’ll.”
as if i didn’t love him before he goes and does this 🥺
He would never admit it though. Capone didn’t want to do the who gives this woman away, because he said Jaiden wasn’t giving me away. We were becoming a family.
🥹🤧
Winston, you still scare me. You scare me because I’ve never loved this hard and this deep. I would give my life if that meant that you could keep yours. I love you so much, Baby. Thank you for being my safe place. I love you, Winnie.”
winnie is so cute
Erin, I’ve loved you before I even met you. I remember praying for a wife… not just a woman. A wife, someone that could complete me. You’ve accepted all parts of me, even the hard ones. You love my son like your own, and the way you’ve taken my sister under your wing and love on her told me that you were the one.
that’s his soulmate
“So many things are uncertain when it comes to our daughter right now, but I’m certain of one thing, and that’s that she was made in love. I love you, Erin Delgato.”
PERIOD
While holding hands, we held our hands up and everyone clapped while wiping away tears. As we walked down the aisle, “I Gotta Be” by Jagged Edge played on the violin behind us. Life was perfect.
they’re officially married ahhhhhhh
“Bend that ass over for me real quick.” “I just got out the shower and we need to be leaving in a little while.” I waved him off and went to grab some panties and a bra out of my drawer. “Ella, I need some before we go.” He said in a stern voice. “You going to give it to me or am I going to get it from somewhere else.”
EWWWW WTF?!? ella as much as i don’t like you, you can do WAAAAY better than this nigga
I don’t know why he wanted me to throw it back. Whenever I did, he would come in five seconds. Like he requested, I threw it back on him, squeezing my pussy muscles, and I felt him grip my side and groan out loud because he had come – quickly.
and he’s a one minute man? jesus
Capone used the friendship card to get every part of me, and I willingly gave it to him because I believed he was my forever. In reality, he didn’t want me the way I wanted him. He found Erin and she became his everything. I was discarded like trash.
that’s the one thing he messed at and that’s setting boundaries early on
I got excited at the thought of having a huge wedding and throwing it in Capone’s face. He thought he was the only man that existed for me, and I had someone that wanted to give me the world.
you’ll be getting married for the wrong reasons smh
“Yo, Ella, don’t make me punch your head off your fucking shoulders,” Capone hissed before the phone hung up. His voice game me chills, so I was sure it did the same for Dante, because even he looked scared before he fixed his face. “Do he know who the fuck he dealing with? The fuck he think this is… threatening my girl.”
girl that dante man is NOT it
“We’re in a weird place right now. He’s getting used to me dating again… that’s all.” I didn’t know if that was the truth or a lie. I wasn’t sure how Capone felt about me dating and if he was a little jealous.
not in the all light i promise
Witnessing my brother and Erin be so in love inspired me. It inspired me to call my lawyer and get the ball rolling on divorce papers. I was done with my marriage and couldn’t wait until I was free.
EXACTLY
Naheim knew there was no use in trying to convince me to be with him. There was no fixing our marriage or even going to couple’s therapy. I would be damned if I sat by him and helped him raise a side chick’s baby. I may have been touched in the head, but I wasn’t that damn crazy.
THAT PART
Ella already has my nephew with Capone, so she holds something over me, and I would be damned if I stuck around with my husband knowing that she was his baby mother. Not me.
both her opps are forever gonna be involved in her life
Was any of it real, or was he just playing me from the minute he got out of prison? It was hard to think any of what we had was real, but there was a small piece of me that knew it was. I knew Naheim’s heart, and I knew that he really loved me. He just didn’t love me enough to not cheat on me.
Tasha took joy in knowing that Ella stopped fucking with me. She enjoyed seeing my text messages in our group chat begging them to talk to me. He went and did something that wasn’t forgivable, and for that he had to lay down and accept that we were done, and he ruined his marriage. Once a good girl has gone bad, she gonna fuck up a bag and buy her a new whip and condo, or whatever Jay-Z said.
“Pop out with me tonight…I’m going to Staten Island.” “Yeah. The last time I popped out with you, I had to pop a nigga,” I reminded his ass of our last time we went out. “And I ended the nigga.” His eyes went cold as he stared at me. “I’ll do whatever to protect you, Shorty. Ending a nigga is nothing… feel me?”
kincaid 🫠
“I’m popping out with my niggas and our dirt bikes to watch a race… it’s gonna be good vibes and fun. Vanducci-Cromwell house don’t be on all that other shit… and niggas have enough respect not to bring it to races.”
oh lord i gotta read that series too jesus
This was unlike some shit that I had never experienced before. A woman putting men to shame behind the wheel was something I would always remember. The fact that I got to ride in the car with her would be a core memory for me.
i can smell a new hobby a mile away
After a night like tonight, I didn’t want to be alone. I wanted to be in Kincaid’s arms.
Blaze was known for taking time away when he found some pussy he was into. I wouldn’t hear from him for a week, and then he would pop up gloating about some pussy that he had been in. It had been weeks, and I hadn’t heard from this nigga once.
he’s too busy getting his ass whooped
I made that nigga Capone, and he got the nerve to want to run with him. I'm the fucking blueprint, and he wants to run and be with the fake. Either way, I wanted him dead.
well clearly the master is the student because your methods were pure shit
Not only was I going to take out three of his people, his sister and wifey was going to be two of them.
TO HELL YOU GONNA TOUCH THEM
“Good morning,” Tasha came downstairs. It was after four, and she was talking about good morning. Tasha’s ass was lazy as shit, and now that she was pregnant it was ten times worse. She doesn’t do shit besides eat and be on her damn phone all the time.
hey pot meet kettle! you the last person talking about eating all the damn time
I’ve known Tasha long enough to know that she found some money. She purposely thought I was about to keep her with money. Shit, me helping her was enough payment as is. When she needed me and a roof over her head, she wasn’t so slick out the mouth as she was being in this moment. I could tell that she had some money. You could smell it on her ass like a dog could smell steak.
Certain things you couldn’t take away from a man, and Jaiden was a man. He had experienced loss, and at the hands of someone he considered a friend. It was only right for him to level the playing field, and make sure that Timmy knew he made a grave mistake.
i agree
The shit sounded unreal. I, Capone Delgato, had a fucking wife. My other half. My rib. My forever…
I hated the thought of knowing that Tasha had played me. Even though I hated it, I was man enough to admit that she pulled a quick one on me, so I'm about to be even quicker on her.
and imma be front row when that shit happens
“This isn’t going to bring Joie back, Babe. It may not even make you feel better. It will be something that you can’t take back, no matter how much you try to.” “He raped, Joie,” he revealed, causing even me to lean up.
i still can’t get over that revelation like how disgusting and heartless you gotta be to do something like that
Trilla had something to prove, and he wanted me to know that he could get my loved ones whenever he wanted and didn’t care where. I could appreciate that he had grown some and wasn’t so scary anymore when it came to causing a commotion. The only problem is that he did that shit with me, and he should have known that not even money would get a reaction from me. Fucking with my family, that was sure to show you how fucking crazy I could be.
and that notorious b.i.g looking mf is gongs feel capone and jaiden’s wrath
I could already tell that when my brother was released that he and Erin were going to be locked in. The way that she cares for people is the reason I fell in love with her.
ahhhh they’re so gonna be besties
For so long I've envisioned this life, I just never thought it would happen. Whenever I thought of Ella in a moment like this, I could never picture it. It was because I was meant to meet Erin, and she was meant to be my wife.
yes ma’am 🤏🏽🤏🏽🤏🏽🤏🏽🤏🏽
Blaze had been singing like a fucking canary since we had his ass. He was telling me shit that I didn’t care to know. Once Jaiden told me about Timmy and I saw the picture on his phone for myself, I knew that Blaze wasn’t bullshitting me.
LMAOOSKDJDKSJ
Fat neck could never see more than New York. I wanted it all, and because of that I was still bringing in money and I hadn’t sold shit in New York in the past months.
no wonder he’s jealous
From experience, I knew that Trilla shared the truck with legit businesses. I felt sorry for them, but I needed this bitch burned to the ground right here in the middle of this street. When he turned on the news, I wanted his ass to see what the fuck happened. I wanted him to fucking fume when he thought about what I did. “Burn this bitch.”
LIGHT EM UP
Kincaid handed me the last one and I looked at homie in the face. “Tell that nigga that I’m his fucking daddy…. I run shit. He doesn’t fucking eat unless I say he do.” I launched the cocktail into the back of the truck. “Get the fuck out of here.” I shoved his ass away from me.
DATS MY MF MAN!
come. At my last scan, the specialist we were seeing told me everything was developing well with her. I had been having a healthy pregnancy so far, and I didn’t have any morning sickness. Certain foods made me sick, but other than that I had been blessed with an easy pregnancy.
aww she’s a healthy girl
Capone was already the perfect father, so I knew he would take on the role as girl dad perfectly. It made me a little sad that he wasn’t able to be a girl dad to Naomi because she passed away. I often felt guilty for carrying his daughter. I couldn’t imagine how Ella felt knowing that we were having a baby together, and it was a little girl.
i knew the guilt was eating at her. it’s not god’s fault He blessed her with a miracle baby
A real man isn’t going to have you out here looking crazy as hell while you’re claiming him. When Capone told me he wanted me to live a soft life, he meant every word and showed me right away.
he’s a real one
