Kindle Notes & Highlights
Kora looked at our brother. “Maverick, I am pretty sure there are laws against that. You cannot hold this woman hostage because your wife needs to touch some grass every once in a while.” “Can’t smoke weed, Kora… I am pregnant,” Stevie shot back, and I walked away because I couldn’t stop laughing.
“Mr. Caselli, you have a visitor that wants to come up. Shall I allow them up?” the front desk attendant asked. I could tell it was the new nigga who didn’t know the rules of calling my personal phone. “You be fucking me?” The man was too stunned to speak. He stammered, and if I was in front of him, he would have been sweating. “No… sir…I…” “The only people calling my phone this early be fucking me… that’s you?” “Oh goodness, no.” “I’m a bum?” Now I was fucking offended with him saying, oh goodness, like I was some bum. He should be honored to fuck me if I went that way. “No, sir… I’m just.”
“You hate my baby, Landon?” “Stevie, what?” Duke snickered, clearly tickled by Menace rubbing off on his wife. “What other reason would you have for not coming to see the baby? Zoya has come and Kora has come. Jeffie and Skyler both have come. You are the only one that hasn’t come to meet your nephew.”
“Who is Dennis?” “My fucking son. You don’t give a fuck about your nephew?” he asked, and I shook my head because all these fucking names had me confused. Stevie was Wanda. Menace was Mitchell. Now I had to deal with Dennis. Who the fuck was Dennis, and why were they calling this baby that? “I thought he was a junior.” “He is.” “Never mind… I don’t care.”
“At twenty-five, I was doing shit I had no business doing. Proud of the man you become…” he cleared his throat, “have become,” he corrected himself. I looked at the phone and walked closer toward the pool. “Mens, you sick?” “You wishing death on me, Don?” I chuckled. “Nah, never that. Just ain’t never heard you sound so choked up, pussy.” He snorted. “Why you hate my son, Don?”
“You said we pussy, Korbin? That’s what you said, right?” I spoke through the licks I was delivering onto his body. “I…I never said that… I didn’t say that!” he wailed in pain, as the Case girls gathered around to look at what was unfolding in the kitchen. “Nah, bitch… you said that shit. Beans, you heard him?” “Crystal clear… called you a bitch, too,” Beans added, and although I knew those words never left his mouth, I was having a hard time separating what he said, and what he didn’t say, so he said everything, and he even called my mama an old hoe.
“How was St. Lucia?” Jeffie questioned. “Nice… never knew we owned property there.” “It’s nice?” Menace questioned. It was a shame we owned so much property; some we may never make it to visit. “You should take Stevie and the baby… real nice.” He nodded his head, messing with his beard. “And you went with Taupe’s cousin.”
“I never realized just how much you both look alike,” Alex decided to make small talk, talking about how much me and Menace resembled one another. “You said you wanna fuck my brother next, Alex?” “I never said that… sheesh,” Alex uncomfortably laughed, while fixing the loose strands that didn’t lay back with his slick back. “I’m ugly?” Menace stroked his beard. “Sounds like what he said, Don.”

“Goon? I got a meeting with him sometime in the next few weeks.” “Me and Gerald are friends,” her delusional ass convinced herself, because she wasn’t convincing me that she and Goon were friends. Damn man had made it clear that she was end game for him, and he was gonna love her the way she deserved to be loved. “Keep telling yourself that at night, Zoy.”
