Backfire on the Empire

Anika

Thuggin/Karina Lovely POV

Today, Hakim and I decided to go to some meeting with Andre. He was going to be there to talk to Anika and see if he could get her to drop her deal with Biretti. I'm not really seeing why they need her. She serves no purpose with Empire. She can't be trusted. Even if Lucius bitch ass is in jail, the bitch will probably still be a hazard just because they're his family.

You ain't just bitch you just a ho!
I fuck you and you said you want some mo!
Go make me a sammich ho! Go make me a sammich!

My phone rang and I answered it. Hakim looked at me like I was crazy. I guess he doesn't like my ring tone. I would change it. Just for him.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hey! Rin Rin! What's up!" My makeup artists, Fluffles and Shaquan, who are also drag queens.

"Hey! What's up?" I asked.

"Sweets is having a sale! She's giving us and you a discount!" Fluffles said.

Sweets was also a drag queen. He had a clothing line and was Kristy and I's stylist. I would totally be getting some clothes from him for my performance with Hakim next week. I smiled at the thought of performing with the bae.

"Yes. I'm gonna get me something. I want to show a little skin." I said.

I ran my fingers up and down Hakim's thigh as I talked on the phone. He looked over at me and gave me a big smile. I blew a kiss at him. He caught it and put it on his jaw.

"I'll call y'all later. I have a meeting to attend to." I said.

"Alright girl. See you later." they said before hanging up.

"We're here." I said dreadfully.

We got out the car and walked into the building containing the apartment Anika stayed in. When I walked in, I wanted to laugh. I could do way better than this. Even before me and Kristy had money, we still had better decorations and a bigger place than this. This looked like a dog house.

Andre walked in and I noticed that his eyes were glued to me. Hakim didn't notice, but I did. I moved out of his view feeling rather uncomfortable with it on me. I looked up to see that Anika had already walked in.

"So this is the girl Cookie has forced on you. Good luck with that." She said sitting down and looking at us mischievously.

"Excuse me?" I said in the calmest way possible.

I was trying not to pull out my new .45 I'd bought from Sanchez and blow her brains out. I had no problem getting blood all over this raggedy ass apartment. It would make it look less tacky. I shook the thoughts away and waited for her response.

"I said good luck with that. Listen, Andre and Hakim, I don't have all day. I feel the need to... expose things. For... you know... money." Anika said.

"There is no need for that. We will pay you much more money than Biretti ever could and ensure that you get everything you need." Andre said.

"What if I want... Hakim and I want... it out of the picture." she said looking at me.

"I'm afraid we can't do that." Hakim said.

"Why not?" she asked looking directly at Hakim.

He didn't say anything. This bitch was starting to get on my nerves.

"Anika Calhoun. I'll spell your name.. S-T-U-P-I-D H-O." I said.

She looked at me and anger coursed through her. I could tell she wanted to say something. I was daring her to say the wrong thing.

"Okay F-A-T B-I-T-C-H." Anika said looking at me.

"That's fine. See you later stupid ho." I said.

Hakim, Andre and I walked out. This bitch wasn't worth them begging for. I had plans for her later on though. I sent a text to Sanchez.

Ooh Anika don messed wit the wrong one.
