Once in the car, Pepper said, "Who was that? Bitch I'm in the house on business and yo ' ass looking for dick?"
Mo'esha laughed.
"Hell Yeah! I ain't had none in months fucking with you bitches. What happened in the house?" Mo'esha asked, looking at Pepper.
Pepper told her everything that was said, including Macy's man being inside the house and how he really was gunning for Macy.
"What!" Mo'esha yelled. She shook her head. "This a dirty ass game. Can't trust a soul. But you did tell that nigga we ain't backing down, didn't you? We want our cash! And the Cartel don't back down!"
"You know that's what I told him." Pepper said. "So what we go do is look for an apartment. It gotta be out the way. Maybe we could find a place right outside of Cincinnati, like Newport. When we find a place, we'll fly China and Si-Si back up here. Then, we gotta handle this shit.”

MACY
Dame laughed while choking on the pressure he and Macy were smoking on.
"Yo, You fucking crazy, Mace." Macy was laughing as well.
"For real, nigga. Can't nobody fuck with me man. You see I ran them La'Bella Cartel Bitches out the city, and if they still here, they ain't made no move. They should've known better than to try and come for me." Macy said, boosting himself up.
Dame puffed on the joint. "Riiight, Riiiight. It's crazy how Shorty that you moved in was really with them Bitches trying to set you up then turned on her crew." Dame said, reminding Macy of what he did to Nay-Nay.
When he had received the envelope from one of his Goons and pulled out the picture, the first one he laid eyes on was "MYA". At the bottom of the Picture it said ' The La'Bella Cartel '. Macy jumped up and grabbed Nay-Nay forcefully out of his bed by her hair. He was pulling so tight she felt her scalp being ripped from her skull.
"Oh My God, Macy what are you doing!" Nay-Nay yelled, afraid of what was happening.
"Bitch, you trying to play me! You trying to set me up with them La'Bella Cartel bitches!" Macy roared. "What? What are you talking about? I ain't setting you up!" She yelled, trying to release herself from Macy's tight grip on her hair.
Macy picked up the picture from the bed and Slapped Nay-Nay in the face with it. "Bitch you telling me this ain't you in this picture!"
Nay-Nay looked at the picture in horror. She knew it was over and that she had been found out. She tried to plead with Macy and tell him how she went against her crew for him and that's why she told on them so he could dead them, but Macy wasn't trying to hear it. He was furious and wasn't thinking clearly. Macy dragged Nay-Nay down the stairs and into his foyer. The three goons Macy had in the house all watched but did nothing. Macy Beat Nay-Nay until she was black and blue. He instructed one of his goons to go get a knife out of the kitchen. When the goon came back with the knife, he told the goons to hold Nay-Nay down while he cut out her tongue for being a Rat.
He didn't give a shit about her going against her crew for him. That only told him that she wasn't loyal and that she couldn't be trusted if she would give up her own Crew.
After He cut out her tongue, blood was everywhere and Nay-Nay was squirming around on the floor. Macy then grabbed the rifle from his goon and shot Nay-Nay 3 times in her head. Before he had his goons dump her in a dumpster on the other side of town, he cut off her head.
Macy wanted to make an example. He dared the La'Bella Cartel to come after him because he would murk them like he did Nay-Nay.
"That's why I deaded her snitch ass. She thought I was going to welcome her with open arms because she turned on them for me. Shorty was buggin'! All that told me was The bitch wasn't loyal, so she had to get it." Macy said with no remorse.
Dame hated feeding into Macy's devious ways, but he had to play his role as the Right-Hand man. Dame wanted to shoot Macy so bad, but it wasn't the time. Plus, goons were standing outside the door. His time was going to come. Dame just had to be patient. Now that the Cartel was out the picture, Dame could put his plan back in motion.
He sat and thought about the Beautiful Pepper. Once Macy was dead, he planned on getting at Pepper. She was beautiful to him and he loved her style and aggression. He also had a thing for Latina's.
"So you ain't heard shit from The Cartel?" Dame asked, just to make conversation.
"Nah, bra. One of them hoe ass niggas standing at the gate said one of them bitches dropped the envelope off at my crib. I had to dead that nigga too for not Knocking that bitch when she step to my crib. And after that, them bitches fell off the face of the earth." Dame knew he was talking about Pepper. He remembered bumping into her that day.
Dame and Macy sat and smoked all day while playing the Xbox. Dame was really playing the hell out of his role.
It was like he was actually Macy's Right-Hand man. "Yo, you know you my nigga, right?" Macy asked out of the blue while playing 2k.
"Yeah, I know." Dame simply said.
"It's like ever since they deaded my nigga Boogie I couldn't trust no nigga, man. But I know I can trust you my nigga, no doubt." Macy was sincere. Dame was his nigga and he would never betray him.
He just hoped that Dame felt the same way. If Dame ever betrayed him, It would break the heart Macy forgot he even had.
Dame looked at Macy and was disgusted. In his mind, Macy could go to hell and he was going to send him there soon. It angered Dame that Macy was pretending to have a heart after deading so many people.
Yeah, Dame had killed people in his lifetime, but never innocent people. They were people who deserved their death and that's why Dame felt no remorse about it.
"You know you my nigga too, bra. I got your back 100%. Anybody fuck with you they fuck with me. Straight up. Dame lied. It sounded good though.
Macy never took his eyes off the game so Dame could even look into his eyes. That's why Dame didn't believe a word coming out of Macy's mouth.
Macy nodded his head and passed Dame the joint. "Yo, I'm going to bed man. I'll see you tomorrow nigga." Macy left out the game room and walked up to his bedroom and closed the door.
Once Macy was in his room, Dame left and went to his little apartment he rented 20 minutes away. When he got there, he showered and lay in his bed.
He thought about how he'd been on this mission for almost 4 years. Yes, he's had plenty of times to dead Macy, but he wanted to take his time and really gain Macy's trust. Then, when he pulled the trigger, Macy could look him into his eyes and see that he had slipped up, something Macy thought he could never do. Macy felt no one would catch him slipping, but really, Dame had been catching him slipping for 4 years.
Dame could almost taste Macy's blood on his tongue and once Macy was dead, Dame planned on taking over Macy's Empire and instead of putting niggas in fear, he wanted to help niggas eat because when everybody ate, no one had any room to hate.

THE CARTEL
The Cartel set outside of Macy's estate. They've been posted in a Black Hummer with pitch black tint for hours. They wanted to see how the Infamous Macy Bryant moved since everyone claimed he was so hard to touch.
He had goons everywhere. Three goons stood by the gate with Machine guns in their hands. With vernaculars, Mo'esha saw that there were about 10 goons on the roof of Macy's house and 2 goons Stood outside the front door.
"This nigga think he Scarface for real," Mo'esha said to herself as she sucked her teeth.
When Macy finally exited the house, he was surrounded by so many goons they couldn't even see his feet walking. Pepper searched the goons faces to see if she saw Dame's face, but she didn't. She was kind of relieved. Lately, she found herself thinking about him. While she played with her sex toys at night she would say Dame's name as she came. Although Pepper was technically a virgin, she still would let her Toy vibrate on her pussy. Dame was sexy to her.
She loved his Milk Chocolate Skin. It was so buttery and smooth and possessed not one pimple. While at Dave's house, Although she was caught off guard when he walked out, she was glad to see him and fi
nally be close to him. The sight of him made her Virgin Love-Button drip.
When Macy's Black escalade pulled out of the lot, Mo'esha waited to follow him. She didn't want to draw attention to them. She kept a safe distance. She followed him for 20 minutes. He pulled up at an apartment building. When Dame Came outside and got inside of Macy's car, Peppers heart began to beat. "Yo, ain't that the nigga you saw at Dave's Place?" Mo'esha asked.
Pepper nodded her head but didn't say a word. Pepper and Mo'esha followed Macy and Dame around all day. They stopped in hoods going from Bando to Bando picking up money. Pepper figured it was that time of the month when all dope-boys went to pick up their money off the streets. Even as they were picking up the money, 10 goons followed behind them. Macy was truly hard to get at without getting killed right behind him.
The whole time they were collecting money, Pepper's eyes were glued on Dame. She liked the way he walked; he had a cute little bow-legged thing going on.
She dreamed of going over to his apartment and fucking him now that she knew where he lived but until he actually deaded Macy, Pepper was unsure of rather or not to trust him. When she looked into his eyes that day at Dave's crib he seemed Sincere, but you could never trust anyone in this game.
After following Macy around all day the girls were tired. They were expecting China and Si-Si the next day.
"Damn," Mo'esha said, flopping down on the couch. "Nay-Nay was right about one thing, that nigga roll deep. I ain't never seen a nigga roll like that. He must got some serious enemies on his hands. We can't be the only ones trying to dead this nigga."
"Yeah, from what I hear he has plenty of Enemies." Pepper said coolly.
"Well, you get comfortable baby because I got a date tonight," Mo'esha said, sounding excited.
Pepper raised a brow. "With who?"
"You remember dude from Dave's crib that I was outside talking to?"
Pepper nodded her head.
"Well, him. I'll just be across the river. He's taking me to that nightclub Mynt Martini's. You know on Fountain Square?"
"Yeah," Pepper said. "Do you think it's smart to be out at a nightclub without Your crew with you? What if somebody recognize you and shit get back to Macy and he come body you?"
Mo'esha laughed as if Pepper had made a joke.
"Body me? Bitch please. I stay strapped. And you know I ain't going out like no bitch. If I’ma go out, I’ma go out blasting!" Mo'esha said, hyped.
Pepper just laughed. She knew Mo'esha could handle herself but it was risky for her to go out alone. If something happened to Mo'esha, Pepper would paint the entire city red. Pepper helped Mo'esha get ready for her date. Mo'esha said the nigga was meeting her there because she didn't want to give away their whereabouts.
When Mo'esha left, Pepper took a shower and lay in bed. She thought about her mother Vanessa, who was shot and killed 8 years ago. Pepper missed her mother each day. Although her mother had problems, she never abandoned her. Tears formed in Peppers eyes. It wasn't often that she cried, but when it came to her mother she just couldn't stop the tears. Pepper looked over at her nightstand at the picture of her mother. Her beautiful mother. Pepper resembled her a lot. From their long wavy hair to their Soft butter colored skin. The only difference between the two was that Pepper was a lot taller than her mother who only stood at 5'ft.
"I miss you, Mommy." Pepper sobbed. And cried herself to sleep.
Pepper awoke to the sound of her Phone ringing. She fumbled to answer it. When she got a good grip on it, she answered without looking at the screen.
"Hello,"
"Bitch you don't hear us knocking on the door!" China yelled, obviously angry.
Pepper jumped out of bed and went to open the door. China and Si-Si both had annoyed expressions on their faces.
"Damn! What was you doing?" Si-Si asked, walking in putting down her bags.
Pepper noticed that Si-Si's eyes were devil red and knew she had been getting high on their flight back to Ohio. Pepper just shook her head. She knew Si-Si would take it hard when Nay-Nay got killed, but to turn to drugs was beyond crazy. Pepper told herself that as long as Si-Si didn't start possessing the behavior of a junkie that she didn't care about her getting high. "I was sleep! Duh! You see what time it is?" Pepper said with sarcasm.
Si-Si sucked her teeth and looked around. "Where Mo'esha?"
It was then that Pepper noticed Mo'esha hadn't come back From her date.
Oh, Shit!" Pepper yelled, grabbing her phone.
"What! What! You scaring me!" China said growing worried about Peppers reaction.
Pepper dialed Mo'esha number but it went to voicemail. She tried two more times but it went straight to voicemail. Panic came over Pepper and she ran in the room.
"We gotta go find Mo'esha! I swear to God if that Macy nigga touched her!" Pepper yelled.
Just as the girls were about to leave, Mo'esha came through the doors with blood on her hands and dress. Pepper, China and Si-Si all froze, watching Mo'esha walk into the kitchen and wash the blood off her hands
. Pepper slowly walked into the kitchen.
"Mo'esha! What the fuck happened! You ok?" She yelled.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I had to dead that nigga though!" Mo'esha told them.
"Dead who? That nigga from last night?" Pepper asked.
"Yep."
"Bitch, why?" Pepper wanted to know.
Mo'esha undressed and threw her bloody dress in the trash. She darted back into her room and found a t-shirt and a pair of sweat pants and put them on. She then walked back into the kitchen and grabbed the trash bag. She walked outside and down to the Ohio river and threw the trash bag in the water.
She walked back up to their cabin on the bank of the river and closed the door.
Pepper, China, and Si-Si were still standing where they were.
"I had to dead that nigga! He thought he could pull some slick shit on me. Nah, I wasn't going!" Mo'esha said, walking in circles around the room.
"What the fuck happened, Mo'esha. You scaring me!" Pepper screamed.
"The nigga I went out with, Bitch! All I know is the nigga tried to rape me in the hotel room we were in and I stabbed him! Fuck!” Mo'esha yelled, she was a wreck. She was even more scared because after she deaded him, she panicked, and dropped the knife. She didn't know how she could be so stupid. She was a skilled murderer and she made an immature move. "You made sure you got rid of evidence, right?" China asked.
"Yeah. No doubt," Mo'esha lied.
Wasn't no way she was going to tell them that she dropped the knife and left it inside the room with the body.
She knew eventually the police would catch up to her, but she couldn't panic. She figured it would take them a while to solve the murder because although her prints were on the knife, she wasn't in the system so matching her prints would take time. Mo'esha figured by the time they matched her prints to her, they would've been deaded Macy and she would use her portion of the money to leave the country for a while.
"Ok, well as long as no evidence was left behind you should be good. But, bitch I told you leaving here alone was a bad idea!" Pepper barked.
Mo'esha knew Pepper was right, but now wasn't the time to point faults.
"Bitch, I'm a grown ass woman! I needed to get out! I'm around a bunch of bitches twenty-four seven! I needed to breathe!" Mo'esha roared.
Pepper was biting down on her bottom lip so hard she felt blood leak into her mouth. Her temper was rising and for the first time she wanted to punch Mo'esha in the mouth, but she tamed herself.
"Look, the sooner we dead Macy and get our loot we could take a break from all this shit and move back to Miami. We gotta dead this nigga because if not, we'll never be able to come back to our City again without looking over our shoulders! This shit is getting old! It's been almost a year since we got put on this nigga! Let's dead him and get out!" Pepper yelled. She was frustrated.
All she wanted to do was the job they were getting paid to do then move on.

THE CARTEL
"Go Macy, it's yo birthday! I’ma party like it's my mutha-fuckin' birthday!" Macy sung In-front of the gigantic mirror in his closet.
He was naked, and his dick and balls where swinging everywhere.
"You go fuck 'em up tonight nigga!" Macy thought to himself as he slid on his boxers. He flexed his Muscles and stared at himself in the mirror.
Macy knew he was one sexy dude and could get any girl he wanted. He often used his tattoos, Green Hazel eyes, and his wavy brown hair as a tool to distract girls from his Devilish soul. He knew how to get in a woman's head and make her fall in love with him but he never cared an ounce for them. Macy only loved one woman and that woman was his Grandma who raised him. When she died when he was 15, that's when he took a turn for the worse and became Satan himself. She was killed by a wanna-be stick up kid trying to earn his way into a gang. It angered him whenever he thought about it. If he knew who killed his granny he would torture and kill him in the most horrific way for taking his grandma away from him. He knew his grandma wouldn't be proud of the man he turned out to be but he knew he was only this way because it was the only way to survive. He often apologized to his granny whenever he killed and asked her to pray for him and ask God to make room for him in heaven although he knew he was VIP in hell.
Macy got dressed in a Money green Button down and Dark blue straight legged Gucci jeans with White and green Jordan's. Macy finished it off with a White Cincinnati Fitted. He grabbed the Silver cross chain his grandma had given him when he was a baby and put it on. He put on a White watch and looked himself over in the mirror one last time before he exited the closet.
It was his birthday and He threw himself a party at Club 601 in downtown. Macy couldn't wait. He was ready to drink and bag a lil shorty to bring back to his place and Fuck her. Maybe if she had a friend they could have a threesome.
When Macy got inside his car, he pulled out his phone and dialed Dame.
"Yo," Dame cooed into the phone.
"Nigga, I'm salty you ain't coming to my birthday party. How you my Right-Hand and ain't coming to my shit?" Macy said.
