"What did I fucking tell you? I said that if I find out that you was lying to me I was going to deliver a bullet between your eyes.."

Honey sat stiffly in the backseat, keeping her gaze trained on the partition that separated the front and back seat. "I remember what you said and I didn't lie." Her voice was eerily calm, not reflecting the turmoil she felt inside. The moment her eyes landed on Spencer pointing the gun on her in the backseat of his car she knew she was in trouble. The fact that he pulled up on her in broad daylight while she was on her college campus made her extremely uneasy. She couldn't help, but feel like something happened. She already had a nagging feeling that Nadia had ulterior motive and coincidentally, Spencer shows up?


Spencer must not have been appreciative of her answer because he violently grabbed a fistful of Honey's hair, causing a wildfire of pain to erupt across her scalp. Just as she was about to instinctively claw at his hands. He thrusted the barrel of the gun under her chin, resting his finger on the trigger making her freeze. "Stop fuckin' lying to me. She came to this city knowin' I wanted her head, but she risked it anyway for you, callin' you and shit. The jig is up, tell me where the fuck she at."


How did Spencer know Nadia called me? Honey blinked back the tears that stung in her eyes, a wave of hysteria immersed her insides. "I don't know, I swear." Her voice on the verge of desperation.


His nostrils flared as he unconsciously tightened his fingers in her hair, making her whimper. "Why the fuck are you protectin' her? Nadia wouldn't hesitate to snitch on your dumbass. How much of my cash did she pay you off? 10 bands? 20 bands?"


Honey gulped, spasms of apprehension slithered through the pit of her stomach. So it was money she stole from him? The amount of money he's listing tells me she must've took a lot. That explains why he's so furious and hell bent on finding her. I bet she did this on purpose. She's on the run, hiding away safely which my life is being threatened again. Where is Jericho? My personal assigned 'bodyguard'? Exactly. No where to be found. It was no coincidence that she came to me out of everyone she knew. She definitely had plans to execute her personal vendetta against me before she disappeared. "I'm not protecting anyone! I don't know what you're talking about. I have none of your money. I only tended her injuries off the strength that she's my family. That's all. I haven't seen or talked to her..but wait! There's a guy at my school who knows her..Jericho!" Yes, she was singing like a canary and throwing everybody under the bus, but she didn't care. She was going to protect herself above anyone else. She shouldn't even be in this predicament to begin with.


Spencer ran the barrel of the gun against the side of Honey's neck, leaving behind a burning trail of fear. He studied her terrified expression with a snarl, unsatisfied with her explanation. "Jericho? That nigga work for me. Every dime she ran to you, best believe imma get all it back. Fuck it, I'll make an example out of you—"
