Cutthroat

by Octavia Grant

Revenge is an act of passion; vengeance is an act of justice. I was seeking vengeance and that damn sure made me feel great. The Bible says, vengeance is mine, and it was.

“Do I look stupid to you? I may be a good woman, but I ain’t never been a dumb bitch.

Eden cried silently. She was walking into the operating room with two heartbeats and walking out with one. Envy and Jermaine would pay dearly for that.

Smiling faces sometimes hide the most pain.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

You missed your brother, so I replaced the one that you lost. I’m your mama now, nigga,” Eden said proudly.

Savage!!

If you have a good woman, then be a good man If you’re unfaithful, you need to quit. You’ll lose everything once she finds out And she gets on her cutthroat shit.
