Maybe if I buy her gifts, she’ll forget about this stupid title.
I pulled into the garage, Nadine hopped out of the truck walking into the house barefoot. I gathered her clothes. Strolling into my bedroom, I could hear the shower running. I smiled, disrobing leaving our clothes in a pile on the floor. I turned on the lamp in the dark room before entering the bathroom.
Stepping into the shower, I pulled my woman into my arms. “Nadine, you mean the world to me. You know that. No one comes before you. Let the title shit go, baby.”
Nadine grabbed the bar of soap, lathering my chest.
She cut her eyes at me. “For now, Tony.”
I kissed her forehead. “Remember how we met?”
She smiled. “Yes.”
I sighed. “The ID thing is something I do to make conversation with a woman of interest.”
She threw the bar of soap at my chest. Her fists landed on her hips and a scowl took her face. “How could you do that? That was fucked up!”
“No, what was fucked up is I didn’t want to have sex with you that night. I stopped myself. Most woman don’t make it past the parking lot, but you… You’re stealing my heart. I don’t meet parents. I don’t take women to my special places.” I caressed her face. “Why can’t you see you have everything other women wish they had. Not to mention, I spend all my free time with you.” I smiled.
“You sweet talking asshole.” She pulled away, slapping my chest.
“After I douse us with soap, I’m fucking you to sleep.”
She moaned. “That sounds good.”
I was a man of my word. I fucked her so good, we both drifted off to sleep.
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
TONY
Strolling around the college campus, I looked into the faces of various students in passing. It was a gloomy day. Perfect for what I had planned. I glanced at the picture one more time, then stuffed it into my pocket. Walking toward the young man with his arm wrapped around a female’s shoulder. I bumped him hard. His body jerked back.
“What the fuck, man! Watch where you’re going.” His almond complected face grimaced standing toe to toe with me.
I chuckled. “Or what?” I grabbed him by the front of his expensive tan jacket, pulling him up toward me. His feet dangled beneath him.
I barred my teeth. “I understand you like embarrassing women. Well, I’m here to embarrass you.” A crowd of kids surrounded us. The girl he was hugged up on watched from the sidelines in horror.
Still gripping his jacket, I placed him on his feet.
“You placed a bet you could take Nadine’s virginity.”
He smacked his lips. “That shit happened years ago. She got in her feelings about it. That’s over and done with.”
I cocked my fist back. “That’s where you’re wrong, Terrance.” My fist slid across his jaw.
“Nadine is my woman now. She is a lady who is to be treated like a queen! You don’t treat ladies like shit.”
I pounded his face with my fist. Blood seeped from his nose and the corner of his lips. He tried hitting back, but I ducked. I demolished his pretty boy face.
I tossed him to the pavement, kicking him in the ribs.
Campus security was approaching.
“Have a good semester, dip shit.”
The students surrounded Terrance. I darted into the front door of the library, removing my black hat and jacket, as I entered the stacks. Dropping my belongings at my feet, I slipped a book off the shelf and pretended to read. Campus security walked past, checking the aisles. A voice came over the officer’s walkie talkie. “We lost him.”
I kept my cool, laughing on the inside. Ten minutes later, I exited the back door. I drove the rental car onto the private air strip, hopping Uncle Serg’s plane back to New Jersey. Another typical Thursday.

Later that night, Nadine sat on the couch wearing one of my gray T-shirts with her arms folded. She shot daggers into me with her eyes in the half-lit room.
“Is there anything you want to tell me?”
“Gone in Sixty Seconds is a great movie. Can we focus?”
Nadine grabbed the remote, pausing the movie. “Tony, where did you go today?”
“It’s apparent you know where I have been so you tell me.”
“I received the craziest call from Terrance today. He said some big, burly white guy claiming to be my boyfriend jumped him.”
“Jumped him, huh? More like I beat the shit out of him.” I released a hearty laugh.
“Oh, Tony.” Nadine fell into my arms. “You did that for me?”
“No-one disrespects you. You are a beautiful queen. You should always be treated with respect.”
“Tony, are you sure you don’t want to get dressed and do something special for your birthday?”
I was lounging in my wife beater and boxers. “Right after this movie, I’m tying you to the bed and fucking you until you squirt all over me. That’s my present.” I raised my eyebrows twice.
She grinned, slapping my shoulder. “You are such a freak.”
I gripped her ass. “I’m your freak.”
She blushed. “Yes, you are.” Nadine leaned into my ear.
“I’m going to swallow your cock.”
“No time like the present.”
Nadine sat at my side facing me, running her hand over my wife beater, trailing into my boxers.
“Panties off and ass up.”
The light from the lamp behind Nadine made her cat like form sexy.
“Are you wet for me?”
“I’m always wet for you, Tony,” she purred.
“Good job, Kitten.”
I ran my fingers down her ass into her wetness.
Her warm mouth swallowed my cock. Nadine gagged on my dick. It was fucking sexy watching her suck my cock like it was a popsicle. I slipped my wet finger into her tight ass hole. Finger fucking her ass, my head dropped back against the sofa. I watched my woman work her fingers along the shaft and juggle my balls in the other hand. The perfect sight.
I can’t believe I’m saying this at nineteen, but there isn’t another woman who could please me. I know I told Nadine when we met I was nineteen, but I couldn’t let her know we were the same age. She was excited to learn today we were both eighteen for a short time. She claims technically we are the same age because she will turn nineteen in April. I rolled my eyes at her.
My eyes slammed shut. “Fuck, Nadine! Keep that rhythm. Bob your head just like that.” I was damn near foaming at the mouth. I stopped finger fucking her briefly, then continued.
This is the best way to teach your woman how to suck dick. She will get a lot of practice tonight. Her tonsils will be sore in the morning. Nadine moaned against my cock.
“Tony, cum in my mouth.” Her eyes met my mischievous blue ones. She cracked a sexy smile.
I couldn’t say a word. Nadine halted, then sucked faster. My finger worked her asshole faster. Nadine’s moans became louder. I couldn’t tear my eyes away. My free hand tugged her hair as I fucked that sexy mouth.
“Shit, you’re…too…good at this.” I moaned like a bitch.
“Oooo, fuck!”
Nadine gagged as my warm cum slid down her throat.
I released Nadine’s hair. She laid her head in my lap, peering up at me as she kissed the tip of my cock. Her eyes slowly rolled closed as I increased the rhythm of my finger.
Her body shuddered, then she squirted all over the couch.
Nadine licked her lips as her eyes opened.
“Fuck, don’t lick your lips like that Kitten. You’re too sexy for your own good. Get up here and ride my dick. I am about to work that pussy all over this house.”
Nadine straddled me, pressing her lips against mine, running her fingers through my hair. “Thank you for being an honest man. No STD’s here.” She smiled.
“Not to worry. This is the only pussy I’m fucking without protection.” I smirked.
She pulled back. “No, this is the only pussy your f
ucking!”
I gripped her small waist, slamming my dick deep inside her.
“Ouch, Tony!”
“Ride, Nadine.”
My tongue slithered around her neck in an attempt to make her forget what I said.
Like I said. She doesn’t need to know. I’m not fucking other women. The shit will only go to her head.
My only desire is to keep my dark beautiful brown woman happy. Spending time together in my house is our own little piece of happiness.
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
TONY
“Tony! Tony!” I heard Nadine shout closing the front door.
“I’m in the kitchen.”
Nadine bust into the kitchen wearing the black mink jacket I bought her. Her eyes were wide.
“Baby, calm down,” I stated, helping her out of her coat.
“Tony, where is the candy?”
“Shit, I forgot to stop by the store.”
“Tony, the kids will be out trick or treating within the hour.” She folded her arms across her chest.
I laughed inside. The anger that took over her pretty face, was cute at best. I stepped back opening the dark wood cabinet. “Is this going to be enough candy?”
She smiled. “I don’t know, Tony. You grew up here.”
“It should be enough. This is about the amount my father would buy.”
Nadine gripped my hand. “We’re passing out candy in honor of Anthony Sr.”
Nadine always says something to warm my heart. I claimed her soft lips.
“I’ll fill the bowls with candy. I want to be ready.”
I placed four large orange bowls on the counter. Nadine dumped bags of candy inside.
“I’m going outside to set up our chairs and I’ll grab a couple of blankets. Tonight, will be cold. And don’t worry I will bring the candy outside.”
“Ok, Tony, I’m running to the bathroom, then I will meet you outside.”
“Yup.”
Nadine has domesticated me after two months of dating. Even though we don’t label our relationship. I treat her special. I love wining and dining her.
We sat at the edge of the drive way with a bowl of candy in our laps. The solar lamps lined the grass at our sides providing adequate light for the kids. Forty-five-degree weather can be brutal in Jersey. My father’s black and gray fur trapper hat covered my ears. My black leather jacket was enough to keep me warm. I wrapped Nadine in two fur throws. She beamed with excitement every time she passed out candy to the toddlers.
I glanced over at Nadine catching her red-handed eating candy out of the bowl.
My eyebrows furrowed. “What are you doing?”
“Tony, krackel is the best candy. I’ve stored a little stash in the kitchen cabinet for myself. There’s a large selection here, plenty of candy for the kids,” she grinned.
“I’ve been meaning to ask you, where do you think you will practice medicine?”
She hesitated, then glanced at me. “In Philly.”
I should have known. What did I think she would do, stay in Jersey and practice medicine?
“I can see why you want to be a Pediatrician. You’ve made every child feel special tonight.”
She flashed her pretty white teeth. “I love kids!”
I rubbed my bearded chin.
She stared at me. “What?”
“Nothing.”
“I hope to open my own practice someday.”
I turned to her. “Do you want children of your own one day, far in the future?”
She chuckled, then stared deep into my blue eyes. “Yes, I want your babies one day in the future.”
I smiled. No words followed.
“What? Don’t tell me you don’t want an Anthony III running around one day.” she grinned.
I remained silent. I heard her sniffle.
I glanced at her out of the corner of my eyes. Her eyes filled with tears.
“Oh, I get it. You want children but not with me.” She swiped the tears away. “Let’s finish passing out candy.” Nadine swiped away the tears.
Before I could say a word, six kids approached, screaming trick or treat.
What was I supposed to tell her, we could never have kids because we live in the here and now and our future paths are different?
Nadine’s bright smile replaced the tears. She asked the children their ages and if they’ve been to several houses.
Nadine is the only woman I would want to be the mother of my children. However, I don’t plan to have a wife or children. In my line of work, people seek revenge. I can’t put Nadine in danger. Maybe it’s time to take a step back.
After the children went on their way, Nadine stood gathering what she could to carry into the house.
“I will take care of cleaning up the area. Go into the house. Sit near the fireplace.”
My throat was dry and my hands were clammy. What was happening to me? I feel like I’m losing control and that can’t happen. After putting everything away, I joined Nadine on the bearskin rug in front of the fire. Nadine’s pretty dark skin glowed in the yellow and orange flames.
I pulled her into my arms, kissing her neck.
Nadine pushed me back. “No, Tony. Tell me why you don’t want a future with me?”
I exhaled, falling back against the front of the sofa. “What did I tell you in the beginning?”
She folded her arms staring into the flames.
“Look at me, Nadine!” She turned with tears streaming down her face.
“I told you this…” I pointed between us. “…was only about sex. There could never be a relationship. So, the marriage and babies ain’t never going to happen!”
She turned standing on her knees, closing in on me. “Yeah, I know it’s only about sex! Because you take all your women on killing jobs, you buy them all new wardrobes, they all have keys to your house, and drive your cars. News flash Tony, around town, people know me as your woman. If Laina and I go out to lunch on Saturday afternoons driving your truck or the Mercedes, they treat us like queens.
‘I’m told nothing but the best for Tony Magarelli’s woman’. Or, “your money is no good here.” And, “tell Tony I said hello’.’ I have several cards in my purse from restaurant owners who want you to know they are looking out for you. You know they would do anything to be in Tony Magarelli’s good graces.” She stood to her feet, her eyes turned darker.
“We are over. This sexual relationship is no more.”
I stood, grabbing her arm. “Stop the fucking water works. You’re not ending shit!” I roared.
Nadine went crazy, snatching her arm from my grip, pounding her petite fists against my chest. “Fuck you!”
Her chest rose and fell as her fists clutched at her sides. “I hate how you make it seem like you didn’t want any of this. You are so full of shit! You practically moved me in Tony. Wake up! We make love every day. It was never fucking for us.”
My nostrils flared as I leaned closer. “Oh no, because it was fucking for me.”
What possessed me to say those words. It was a lie.
“Smack.” Her hand flew across my cheek.
I held my stinging jaw. I’m in love with Nadine but I can never tell her. Every day I carry the weight of the world on my shoulders. Why was I chosen as the hit man of this family? Who said I didn’t want a normal life?
“My uncle has requested you to attend our Thanksgiving dinner and our Christmas party. You better be there!”
I have to let Nadine go.
Her eyes narrowed. “Or what, I’ll be killed?”
“Yes!” I ran my fingers through my hair.
Her eyes widened, and she froze. “Tony, why?”
“The night the cop saw us at the park, he reported to my uncle I wasn’t alone. My uncle is concerned you will talk.”
Her eyes softened. “But I wouldn’t.”
“I know that, but he doesn’t.”
I’ve put my woman in danger. I never meant for this to happen.
She
flopped on the couch. “Great another person who thinks I’m your woman.”
I sat next to her, grabbing her hand. “This is all my fault. I can’t put all the blame on you. I have deep feelings for you and I have to protect you. You can’t be in my life. I wish I would have known the restaurant owners greeted you as my woman. I need the business cards. Any of my enemies could have been listening. We have two new men, who are brothers on our staff. Cruise and Cruz Carzezi. Cruise is the oldest. He will be assigned to my uncle Sergio. The younger brother Cruz we often call him Cruzo to distinguish between him and his brother. He and I are the same age. He will be assigned to you. You go nowhere without him. Do you understand?!”
“Tony, this is crazy. But yes, I understand.”
“I have to clean up my mess. This is why we can’t get married and have kids. If one motherfucker attempts to lay a hand on you, I will go on a murdering spree.”
She nuzzled my ear. “Because you love me.”
I couldn’t answer her. It was like she was reading my fucking mind.
I pushed her back gently. “Nadine, we can’t see each other anymore.”
She smacked her lips. “So, we are back to fucking other people. Ok.” She hopped off the plush sofa and ran up the spiral staircase.
I ran top speed up the stairs, turning her to face me, pinning her arms against the wall. I traced my lips along her ear. “If I think you will fuck another man, I will find him and slit his throat. Don’t test me, Nadine.” I released her arms, staring down into her angry eyes. My blood was boiling. How did I expect to let Nadine go? I adjusted my cock. The plan was to watch her cum all night and now I’ve ruined it. She tore herself away from my tight grip, walking into the bedroom, filling her expensive duffel bag with her clothes. My jaw clenched as I watched from the doorway.
