Avery watched him inspect his body. Lake was hands down the finest nigga she’d ever laid her eyes on. The light hitting his chocolate skin made imaginary sparkles glisten over him. Lake was like the song that played when the sexy lead nigga in a romance movie made his debut.

“Exactly what I said. I like you. I want you. I want you all the time. You giving me that pussy, it’s mine. I tried to let you make the decision on your own, give you time, but you wanna keep moving all crazy, so I gotta give you some order.”
