They Call Him Nas

by K.C. Mills

I’d like to have a partner who will take care of my emotional wellbeing. Someone who allows me to be a woman because he understands what it means to be a man. I want to feel safe and protected. Coveted in a way that brings me peace because I know he’s my rock, my strength, and in return I can offer the same. So yes, I need a man beyond finances, but they never seem to look past what they may not have the ability to bring to the table to focus on what they can.”

It had been the sweetest thing I’d ever experienced. Eden cried for at least ten minutes after Nas handed her off to Davin. He stood completely still, whispering things into her ear that only they were privy to, while she rested her head against his chest. His hand lovingly moved up and down her back in such a gently soothing manner until she was ready to move on with the ceremony.
