POV August

"Lyssa."

"Babe." I whispered, softly shaking her.

"Hm?" She turned towards me, rubbing her eyes.

"I've got to go handle some business, I'll be back in about an hour, two tops."

"Really Anthony? " She turned to look at the clock.
" It's three in the damn morning and- you know what? I just can't with you. If you wanna go, go."

Damn, she used my middle name. That in itself means something.

Alyssa has three stages when she gets mad at me:

Stage one: She calls me Aug in annoyed tone which simply means that she's annoyed

Stage two: She'd call me August. Well, she would yell my name and that would be when she's borderline mad

Stage three: This is the last straw for her. She'd call me Anthony and this means she's () that close from either beating my ass or ignoring me for days on end

The fact that she called me Anthony told me that I was in deep shit.
On any other day I would have stayed at home just so I could be on good terms with her but today's drop is really important so a nigga's gotta do what he gotta do to survive.

I quickly kissed her forehead before making my way out of the door.
I made sure to lock both locks and to turn the security system on before getting into the car and pulling out of the driveway.

I connected my phone to the car's speakers and called my homeboy; that way I wouldn't have to use my phone whilst I was driving.

"Yo, Trace."

"Yungin, what's good?"

"Nun much, boutta make a drop. Anything on Queen yet?"

"Ain't much but I've got her location and number. This bitch is so hard to track, you ain't even know it. Couldn't even find her damn government. "

"Shit, that's what's up." I was starting to feel uneasy about the situation, which is unusual but if it is that hard for Trace to find her then she really is the Queen. Trace can find any and everybody as long as they are registered in the government system so if he's unable to find her then I don't know who can.

" Yeah man, imma send you what I have so far an I'll keep lookin but I cant promise you that I'll find anything. "

"Coo, I'm almost at the trap so imma hit you up later. Thanks my nigga."

"Its cool, later. "

As soon as Trace and I finished our conversation I pulled up to the trap. I got my gun from the glove compartment and turned the safety on before placing it in the waistband of my sweatpants and covering it with my shirt.

"Yo yungin what's good?" Tae greeted as I came through the door, dapping the guys in the room.

"Chillin, you know what's good."

"Ite man, King's waitin fo you in the back. "

"Good lookin." I quickly gave Tae dap before heading towards the back to King's office.
Once I reached the door I knocked three times, stopped for two seconds, then knocked another four times.

"Come in!"
With the invitation to, I entered the room, the smell of weed and liquor instantly burning my nose.

"Been told you wantin fo me?" I asked, sitting down in the seat opposite him.

" Yeah bro, need you to do this drop fo me real quick." I nodded, getting ready to memorise the location.

"Seven an thirty. One of my islands." He instructed, speaking in code.
