Keith walks up inside Stella Gate, seeing her son Otis.
"Yo Keith," he said, happy walking up and shaking up with him.
"Damn boy, you big. What about 18 now?" Keith asked
"19. When you gone, let me join your crew?" Otis asked.
"Focus on becoming a star first, man. I don't need you caught up in nothing," Keith said
Stella comes to her door smiling seeing Keith talk to her son. She always had a thing for Keith.
"Otis back inside," Stell said, standing at the door with her fashion nova dress on. "Keith," she said, seeing him walk past her inside smelling his cologne hit her nose instantly.
Stella shut the door behind her, having two of her bodyguards sit by the door while she and Keith walk into the living room.
"So tell me something. That was you that shot at me?" Keith asked standing with his hands in front of him crossed together.
"Why did you mess up what I had going on?" She said, coming up to him, trying to touch his tie.
Keith grabs her arm, putting them down. "I got it. What did I mess up on?" He asked looking down at her rubbing on his suit.
"The girl you came for. Was she one of yours?" Stella asked, standing in front of him. She was dark-skinned very thick with short hair.
"That's my lady," he said
"Hmmm. Lady? I never thought you would even be with someone. Not after Angel. She must be something special, " she said
"What you want, Stella?" Keith asked
"Well, my guy, the one you shot dead. He was out for her. You kinda messed up what I had going on." She said, grabbing the drink from her housekeeper.
"Whatever you thought you had going on wasn't going happen." He said, putting his hands in his pockets.
"I need you in on something with me, Keith. I know you made a deal with the Russian, I want in on it, " she said
"My help? Nah. You know we parted ways a long time ago. And it wasn't a deal. Look at it as a partnership. " he said
Stella walks up to him, grabbing his cheeks. She sticks her tongue out, licking his lips. "Maybe I need to make myself clear. I want in, " she said
Keith grabs her hands off him pushing her up on the wall. "You violating," He said, putting her hands above her head.
"Since when did it stop you from getting some?" She asked
He smiles. "We've been done, Stella," He said, letting her go fixing himself.
"Have we? I mean every time we see each other. You say otherwise, " she said, trying to kiss his neck.
Keith pushes her back a little by her waist. "I'm a taken man, baby. Can't be doing this with you anymore. "
"Well, I do want you to have this," She said as her bodyguards came into the living room with 50 stacks. "Here"
"What's this for?" He asked
"I know. You helped Angel escape from Nate. So take it back. I didn't need your money for her to come back to me, " Stella said
"Keep it. Buy something expensive with it, " He said,
"Come here. I need to show you something," she said as she walked to the back.
Keith follows her down into the basement, seeing half-naked girls breaking down and separating the cocaine, putting them in little bags.
"Okay, I see how you doing it. So why do you need to be good with the Russian?" He asked, walking around the table and seeing if they were scaling it right.
"Just need another alliance. Like you said. I know how hard they come. But they need a boss like me to come into play. And since we always did this shit together. I know your talk game to them would be easy."
He laughs "Stella you know if I put you in. I'm going to need a cut. This shit ain't free, " He said
"I know that. That's why I brought you down here, " she said as her bodyguards came in with two duffle bags full of hundreds.
"Half a mil. And I'll give you your other half when I'm in, " Stella said, walking up to Keith.
"And how do I know it's all there?" He asked
Stella nods her head, having one of the females get off the table to count the cash over.
30 minutes later
"I'll be seeing you, baby," Stella said, walking him out the door.
Keith laughs, hopping in his black truck.
Stella and Keith used to be a thing years ago when he started in the game she was his right-hand female and his first. She Knew the game just like he did. Came up the same way. Stella always thought she and Keith had something, but it never went as far as she thought it would.
Keith's phone rings, getting into his black truck.
"Sup baby?" He answered.
"Missing you," Risha said
Keith looks down at his watch. He has been gone just a day. "I'll be back in two days." He said,' I miss you too. " Are you going to my crib?"
"No, I'm going home." She said.
"Alright. Well, I'll call you a little later when I'm done handling something, " He said, hanging up.
"Boss, you think she gone try to do that sit herself?" William asked
"Shit, even if she did try, they don't want no more alliances." He said, looking down at his phone and calling one of his Russian friends. "Meet me at the diner," He said hanging up.
An hour later Keith sat down with 5 of his bodyguards seeing his friend Juan come towards him with his crew. He comes and sits down across from Keith.
"What you got for me, man?" Juan said shaking up with him.
"You know I got it" Keith smiled while his bodyguards handed him a black rag.
Juan grabs it opening it seeing nothing but diamonds. He looks over it seeing. It was shining. "Damn, my boy. 10 mil?" He asked
"I know you counted the diamonds. Better be ten of them in there" Keith said
Juan laughs with Keith. "I got something for you too," He said waving his hand.
Two dudes come over with 5 duffle bags.
"Here's your money," Juan said
"Ain't got to count it now do I?" Keith said smiling.
"Nah, my boy. If it ain't all there you know somebody dying tonight" Juan said as they shook up.
"Pleasure do business with you. I do got somebody who wants in" Keith said
"And who's that? " Juan asked
"Stella. You know she has been trying to get on your side for a minute" Keith said
"Ehhhh. Yeah but she gone have to show me if she just about business" Juan said
"Aye, I'm just giving you the word from her."
"Tell her to show something" Juan said as his bodyguards came out with another bag full of cocaine. "Tell her I'll like my shit in a week. Then maybe" Juan said getting up and dabbing Keith up and leaving.
