straight,” Ryan told her as the fatigue of the situation began to show on him.
    Jaleesa sighed deeply thinking the same thing, recalling her plans for tonight.
    “ I don’t think Ice would ever forgive himself if anything happened to her,” Ryan mumbled almost to himself.
    “ Hopefully they’ll let us know where to deliver the money and this nightmare will be behind us,” Jaleesa threw back as Ryan agreed.
    Turning to her, he looked into her eyes saying nothing. Jaleesa could see the love he carried for her as he leaned in and kissed her softly at first, then more insistently. Their passion began to rise as Ryan began touching her, removing her clothing. Jaleesa welcomed his touch as he consumed her, stripping her and laying her back gently on the sofa where they sat. Opening her widely, Ryan began tasting her as Jaleesa moaned her pleasure, pulling him closer as his tongue did its work. Her breathing grew more and more uneven until she finally hit orgasm, holding Ryan’s head tightly and moaning loudly. He kissed his way up her body, sliding without hindrance inside her as Jaleesa gripped his butt tightly. Ryan gave her what she craved while fulfilling his own deficiency, both of them exploding moments later in full blown orgasm holding each other tightly trying to catch their breath.
    Jaleesa sat on the bed watching TV as Ryan showered. He’d packed his duffle a few moments earlier with the stuff he needed for his trip. Please let me pull this shit off tonight and KiKi be back home safely, she thought as the program mindlessly continued to play on the screen in front of her. Jaleesa had a really bad feeling about the meeting, but she didn’t dare tell Ryan or Ice. If anything happened to KiKi because of her, Jaleesa knew she couldn’t live with herself.
    “ You gonna be over at Peppermint’s tonight,” Ryan asked as he came into the bedroom once more.
    “ Yeah, then I’ll swing by Mardi Gras and help Ice out,” Jaleesa replied as Ryan smiled slightly and told her good looking out.
    Jaleesa kept her secret and kissed him back as he leaned down and kissed her goodbye.
    “ I’ll see you soon baby,” Ryan told her in parting.
    “ OK, be careful,” Jaleesa returned hugging him tightly.
    “ I’ll be fine baby,” Ryan told her and left her on the bed as he made his way out the door.
    Rising after she heard him leave, Jaleesa headed into the bathroom and turned on the shower. She needed to get moving so she could take care of business before her meeting later tonight.

    Kim woke and glanced over at the clock. It was just a little after noon. Stretching she took in her surroundings once more. The suite Mook had was as nice as the one Top always used for business. She smiled thinking of their conversation when she arrived this morning after seeing that her target made it home. “I told you the sun might be up,” Kim remarked walking inside as Mook smiled slightly. “I’ve had an eventful night myself,” he replied going on to tell her about all the drama with Kaitlyn’s escape. “I only came by because you asked,” Kim told him, giving him a look. Mook chuckled and stepped to her then, close enough for her to feel the heat from his body. “Miss Kim,” he began regarding her calmly as he spoke. “Why you gotta challenge a brutha on every turn,” he asked never taking his eyes from her . “I just think its better to be up front, than play games,” Kim returned not missing a beat. “Mmhmm,” Mook replied leaning in and kissing her lips softly. “See, that’s your one, right there,” Kim told him giving him another look. “I do not have silly trick stamped across my forehead,” she told him evenly as Mook burst into laughter, pissing her off slightly. “Fuck, Miss Kim,” he replied. “I know that, shit,” he added still smiling slightly. “What I don’t know,” he began, getting serious once more. “Is what it’s gonna take for you to be mine, exclusively,” Mook finished and
