  Supreme tapped on the door before walking in. When Choice looked up from the TV, she couldn’t help the smile that formed on her face when she saw him. Neither could he.

  “Hey baby,” Choice said as she stared at her man. His handsome face and breathtaking smile had her heart doing jumping jacks in her chest.

  “Hey ma,” Supreme said as he walked over towards Choice’s bed.

  He planted a soft kiss on her lips before adding a little tongue. The kiss lasted for a couple of minutes before they broke it up. Choice stuck her arms out for a hug and Supreme sat on the bed and gave her what she wanted. She closed her eyes and rested her head on his shoulders. She then nestled her nose up against his neck as she took deep breaths to savor his smell.

  “I missed you so fuckin’ much. I was so scared you would leave me,” Supreme said with his arms securely wrapped around her.

  “David, I would never leave you, believe that,” Choice spoke into his neck.

  Supreme pulled away. “You better not.”

  Supreme kissed her once more before taking a seat in the chair next to her bed. Choice took a deep breath and smiled. His Prada cologne lingered in the air and Choice loved it. She took her eyes off Supreme as she looked around her room. She had balloons and flowers everywhere. She laid eyes on the big pink teddy bear sitting in the corner of the room. She had to smile again because she knew Ashley had purchased it for her.

  “I really love all of these flowers and balloons.”

  “My Nana, Petey, and Ashley went crazy. Mark got you those over there,” Supreme said as he pointed to a dozen of animal printed balloons.

  “And Bear got you these,” Supreme said as he pointed to a vase of yellow roses that sat on her nightstand.

  Choice felt like her world was spinning out of control when Supreme mentioned Bear’s name. She closed her eyes. Everything that happened the night she was raped by Bear played in her mind like a horror film. Those thoughts alone had her shuddering from the memories. Choice’s eyes filled with tears. As she opened them, the tears fell from her eyes as she looked over at Supreme.

  “Ma, why are you crying? What’s the matter? Tell me,” Supreme asked as he wiped away her tears. He waited for her to regain her composure before she spoke.

  “I’ll tell you, but first you need to get them fuckin’ flowers out of my room.NOW!” Choice said as she pointed to the door. “Get them out of here!”

  Supreme was astonished by her reaction. He took the vase of flowers and left the room. He returned a few seconds later, empty handed and waiting for answers. In the back of Supreme’s mind, he knew why she reacted like that and it ate him up and angered him at the same time. Supreme stood at the foot of her bed as he waited for her to tell him what he already knew.

  “Let me know what’s up, ma,” Supreme asked as he licked his lips.

  Choice’s room was so quiet and it felt like the time stood still as it waited for her answer also.

  “It was Bear,” Choice said as she tried to avoid Supreme’s eye contact. “Bear he did this to me. He raped me.”

  Supreme clenched his jaw all he could see was red as anger over took him. Supreme pulled out his phone and dialed Petey’s number then put it on speaker.

  “Petey,” Supreme said when he finally answered. “It was Bear. Bear did this shit to Choice. I’m killin’ his ass! That’s my word!” Supreme said as he his nostrils flared with anger. “Is he with you? Do you know where that nigga at?”

  Petey couldn’t believe what he was hearing. “Bear did that shit? Choice just said Bear did this shit?” Petey asked.

  “Yeah, she just said it was that nigga. Where is he?”

  “When you left, that nigga got up and ran out of here.”

  “Check and see if he told anybody where he was going and call me back.”

  Supreme hung up the phone and dialed Rio’s number also then put it on speaker. Rio was ten years Supreme’s senior. Rio was the nigga who had put Supreme on to the drug game he had schooled him on everything he knew. Rio still played a major part in his life because he was Supreme’s connect and if anybody could help him find Bear, he knew Rio could. Bear was probably making arrangements to leave Florida and go back to New York.

  “Yo, what’s good?” Rio asked when he answered the phone.

  “Have you heard from Bear?” Supreme asked as he held his phone tightly in his hand. Rio could hear the urgency in his protégé’s voice.

  “Nah, you know I don’t really fuck wit that nigga like that. I only fuck with that nigga on the business side because of you.”

  “I need you to put the word out for me on that end. Let your people know that I got money on the nigga. Make sure his ass is still breathing. Hit me up and I’ll be on the first flight out to New York. This shit is personal so I’ll handle the rest from there.”

  “I got you. No problem. I’ll take care of it and you already know your money ain’t no good on this end, fam. I’ll be in touch,” Rio said before hanging up.

  Supreme walked over to Choice’s bed and sat down.

  “Ma, why are you holding your head down?” Supreme asked as he put his finger under her chin and lifted her head so they could be eye to eye. “Why are you avoiding eye contact with me? You’re looking everywhere but at me. What’s up with that?”

  Choice felt ashamed for what Bear had done to her. She felt dirty and disgusting.

  Why didn’t I fight harder? How could I let him take advantage of me? Choice bit on her bottom lip before speaking.

  “I guess I’m a little ashamed. I kinda feel like I let you down in a way. He said that you were hurt so I opened up the door. I wasn’t even thinking straight at that point. Because if I was, I would’ve realized he must’ve jumped the gate or something. Me, Nana and Petey are the only ones who have the code to the gate. Choice said as she shook her head with sadness. I let him have what’s yours.”

  Supreme shook his head no. “Did you willingly open up your legs for that nigga?”

  “No, of course not.”

  “Well then you didn’t willingly do anything and you don’t have any reason to be ashamed. I don’t ever want to hear you say that shit again. You didn’t give my shit away; he took it. I don’t want you worrying about that nigga. I’ma handle his ass. I just want you to get better so you can come home. No stressing, Choice, please. You’re carrying my seed and I want him or her to come out healthy. Now that you’re awake, the police will be stopping by to talk to you. They’re going to want a statement. When they come, don’t tell them shit. I want to handle Bear myself.”

  Choice nodded her head. “I won’t say anything. Supreme, I can’t go back to that house.”

  “And you won’t have to. I’ll have us another house before you get out.”

  Supreme said as he smiled at her. Choice smiled back. “I want you to get some sleep. You look tired. I gotta go take care of some things. I’ll have Ashley come up her and stay with you until I get back.”

  Choice nodded her head then closed her eyes. Supreme kissed Choice on her forehead then got up and left.

  CHAPTER FIVE

  When Petey called Ashley and told her to get up to the hospital because Choice was woke, she did so without asking any questions. The only thing Ashley cared about was Choice being awake. That was all that mattered.

  Ashley walked through the hospital looking like a runway model. As always, she was dressed to impress. Ashley’s red hair was pulled up into a sleek bun that sat on top her head and her makeup was done to perfection. With every step Ashley took, her Red Bottoms made clacking sounds against the tile floor as she hurriedly walked through the hospital halls. When Ashley walked into Choice’s room, she was lying in bed staring up at the wall.

  “How are you holdin’ up, Choice? How are you feelin’?” Ashley asked

  “Supreme just left here not too long ago. He’s going to do something bad I can feel it.” Choice said.

  “Well what did he say? Did he tell you where he was going?” Ashley
asked

  Choice looked at Ashley and shook her head no. “He didn’t tell me anything but he did call Petey and his boy, Rio, from New York. He said he was going to kill Bear and I believe him.”

  “Kill Bear? Why? For what? I’m confused,” Ashley said.

  “It was Bear, Ash, Bear raped me.” Choice said as tears easily fell from her eyes

  “Bear’s the one who beat you and raped you? Ashley asked with her mouth agape. I’ma kill his ass if I ever see him,” Ashley said tight-lipped.

  “Fuckin’ coward! Shit, I hope Supreme and Petey find his ass and kill him. Ashley said with hatred lacing her voice. And I hope I have front row seats,” Ashley said as she stared at Choice. Choice nodded her head and agreement. “Now that’s some shit I would pay to watch. Choice said as she looked away from Ashley then at the TV.

  “I just hope Supreme don’t get into any trouble.”

  “Supreme is going to be fine. You don’t need to be worried about him,” Ashley said with a smile on her face. “Choice, you need to get some rest.” Ashley said with a concerned look on her face.

  “Can you stay with me?” Choice asked as she wiped away her tears.

  “You know I will,” Ashley said as she got comfortable in her chair.

  ****

  Bear got up off the queen-sized bed and looked out the window. He was staying in Motel Blu and his nerves were at an all time high. Bear only had a couple of hours before he boarded the airplane to New York. He couldn’t wait to be as far away from Florida as possible. He knew if Choice was awake then Supreme already knew he was the one who raped her. If Supreme didn’t know, Bear still wasn’t sticking around to find out.

  “Damn, I should’ve killed that bitch,” Bear said as he paced between the window and bed.

  “I really fucked up,” he said as he walked away from the window.

  He pulled a pair of Choice’s panties out of his suitcase. He’d taken a few pair out of the dirty laundry the night he had raped her. Bear lay across the bed and got comfortable. He had it bad for Choice. He missed seeing her face and the only thing he wanted to do was be inside of her again. Bear wanted to feel her like he did that night. Her pussy was so good. It was so tight and the shit tasted even better. Bear brought the panties up to his nose and took a sniff.

  “I miss you so much,” he mumbled.

  Bear’s dick became hard so he pulled out his dick and fantasized about that night as he worked his hand up and down. He took his free hand and brought the panties up to his mouth to lick the crouch of her panties. It only took Bear seconds to cum and he was squirting like a fountain all over his hand and stomach. He reached over to grab the pillow that was beside him and took off the pillowcase to wipe the nut off his hand and stomach. When he was done, he picked up the motel’s phone to call the hospital. He wanted so badly to hear Choice’s voice.

  Bear smiled when he thought of the way she’d been moaning the night he had his way with her. He didn’t care that the moaning Choice was doing was actually from the pain he’d caused her.

  He didn’t know her room number but he did know her first and last name so he was sure they would connect him to her room. When Bear called the hospital, he was pissed. The receptionist asked him for his first and last name. He refused to give her that information so they wouldn’t connect him to her room. His face sat into a scowl as his blood boiled from anger. Bear slammed the phone back down onto the receiver. He snatched the phone cord out of the phone jack and threw the phone up against the wall. He jumped when his cell phone started playing Young Jeezy’s Trap or Die, Supreme’s ring tone.

  When Supreme called two more times, Bear knew Choice had told him. He got up off the bed and peered out of the window. When Bear got to New York, the first thing he was going to do was get a new phone.

  CHAPTER SIX

  Supreme, Petey, Mark, and Dylan were all in Supreme’s Cadillac Truck. They went to all the places that they knew Bear frequented often. They went to all of his favorite strip clubs, restaurants, and a few chicks’ houses they knew that he fucked with but they came up with nothing.

  “Yo, I’m tired of this shit! Where the fuck this nigga at?” Petey said as he looked out the window.

  It was late and they were all tired of driving around and looking for Bear. Supreme drove back to his house as he thought of different ways he was going to kill Bear when he got his hands on him. Supreme looked in the rearview mirror at Dylan when an idea popped into his head.

  “Dylan, I need you to go to New York and find Bear.”

  “What make you think that nigga went back to New York?” Petey asked as he looked over at Supreme.

  “If he was here, we would have found his ass already.’’ Supreme said. “Bear love the spotlight. He’s the type of nigga that wants everybody in the room to know his name. That nigga ain’t goin’ anywhere where he’s not known,” Supreme said as he spoke about his childhood friend. “Anyway, you’re good at that Inspector Gadget type shit so I thought this would be right up your alley. When you do find that nigga, call me and let me know. And make sure you keep your eyes on him. Whatever you do, don’t let him see you. I’ll catch a plane down there to handle the rest.”

  “No problem, Boss. Just take me back to the crib so I can pack my clothes and book a flight.”

  “You don’t have to worry about money. I got you,” Supreme said as he did a U-turn back in the direction of Dylan’s condo.

  “Nah Boss, I got it. Don’t even worry about the money. You and Choice are family.”

  Supreme looked in the rearview mirror at Dylan as he pulled up to his condo. “I appreciate that, fam.”

  Supreme slightly turned around to give Dylan some dap. Dylan gave Mark and Petey some dap before he got out of the truck.

  “When you touch down, make sure you call me to let me know!” Supreme yelled out the window. Dylan threw his hands in the air before walking into his condo.

  They were all consumed by their own thoughts when Supreme pulled up to his house. All three of them got out of Supreme’s truck quietly. Supreme went straight to his living room and slouched down on the couch. Petey and Mark were quiet as they waited for Supreme to speak. He still couldn’t believe Bear had raped Choice. The shit was actually shocking to him. How could he not have known? Supreme knew Bear was feeling Choice but he thought that Bear had moved on when he and Choice had gotten together but he thought wrong.

  “The nigga who raped Choice has been smiling in my fuckin’ face all this time. I’ve been running around Miami killin’ muthafuckas and shit and this crazy nigga was with me,” Supreme shook his head. This game is getting foul. Loyalty doesn’t exist in the muthafuckin’ game no more,” Supreme said as he kicked over his coffee table.

  “Don’t even beat yourself up about the shit because it’s something you can’t fix. What’s done is done,” Petey said as he took the blunt filled with kush from behind his ear and lit it.

  Supreme looked over at Petey and nodded his head. “I can’t fix what he’s done but I am going to make the nigga pay for the shit.”

  Mark’s hands were folded in front of him as he spoke. “Since we know the nigga Bear’s future is death then all we gotta do is find his ass and handle it,” Mark said as he looked a Supreme and then Petey.

  “That’s what it is. It’s as simple as that,” Petey said as he passed Mark the blunt.

  Out of the blue, Supreme remembered that he hadn’t called his Nana to tell her about Choice. He pulled out his phone and called to give her the news. He hoped she wouldn’t be too upset that he hadn’t immediately called her. After telling his Nana the good news, he asked if she would help him find a new place to live. Of course, she agreed to help. In fact, she knew of a nice place near her.

  “I’ll call you tomorrow with the details,” Nana said before hanging up.

  Supreme looked over at Petey and Mark and chuckled.

  “I wonder if that nigga had anything to do with London and Lil Quan’s murder.” Supreme said out lo
ud while looking at Mark and then Petey.

  “Everything that’s done in the dark will come to light,” Supreme said as he stood up and grabbed the keys to his Avalanche Truck. “I’ma head back up to the hospital. I’ll get up with y’all niggas later.”

  “Yo, Supreme, tell Ashley to bring her ass home. I miss her,” Petey said with a smile on his face.

  “No doubt. I got you,” Supreme said before getting in his truck and driving off.

  When Supreme got up to the hospital and walked into Choice’s room, he was happy to see that she was up and eating as she talked to Ashley.

  “Yo Ash, your man is missin’ you. He wants you home.”

  Ashley cocked her head to the side and smiled at Supreme. “Yeah, I bet he does. He must be hungry. Let me leave you love birds alone.”

  Ashley picked up her Birkin bag and walked over to Choice’s bed. She gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. “Call me girl. Bye Supreme,” Ashley said as she walked out of the door.

  “Damn ma, you’re a sight for sore eyes,” Supreme said as he took a seat. “I’m so happy you’re woke.”

  “Me too,” Choice said before taking another bite of her turkey sandwich. He stared at her for a couple of seconds before speaking.

  “My Nana is going to look at a couple of houses for us tomorrow since they said they were going to keep you for a few more days.”

  “That’s not enough time to find a place to live.”

  “Trust me, it’s enough time. You must not know my Nana,” Supreme said with a chuckle. “I’ll have everything ready by the time you get out.”

  Choice took a sip of water then looked at Supreme. “Have you been in contact with my mom?”

  “I went over to her place and she didn’t answer the door. Petey said he had gone over there too and she hadn’t answered the door that time either.”

  “So where is Ky? Does your Nana have her?”
