July 1994

Long Island, New York

"You don't have to go with me Eric...I'll be fine", Monae said to me as she stood in the mirror, pulling a pair of white jeans over her ass.

"Nah baby I don't mind," I ensured her as I buttoned up one of my classic Polo shirts.

I placed a gold rope chain around my neck to add to the finishing touches of my outfit for the day. I had Monae brush my hair and pull it back into a ponytail before we started getting dressed. A nigga wasn't up for getting his hair braided right now. I straighten my shirt out and slowly walked behind Monae, sliding my hands around her waist and pulling her back towards me. I inhaled the scent of her Chanel perfume that I loved on her.

I stared at our reflection in the mirror, "Honestly, I miss the thrill of this shit".

"Oh yeah? You've always liked to take risk"

'Yeah I took a risk with you and look at us now"

Monae tilted her head to the side, displaying that beautiful smile with her deep dimples. She kissed my lips softly and gazed in my eyes, with her left hand wrapped around my neck. I stared back at her searching her eyes for emotion. I had to shake the thoughts I had about her. I can't get caught up right now. Business before pleasure.

I whispered in her ear, "C'mon we got moves to make"

"I'll be down in a minute"

I patted her butt as I kissed the nape of her neck before walking away, grabbing the keys to my black '94 Ferrari F355 and left out our master bedroom. As I walked down the semi-spiral staircase in my Long Island mansion, I thought about how far I have come. The lifestyle of becoming a Kingpin of New York has been more than a blessing to me. I was able to leave the streets of the 5 boroughs and set up a whole new lifestyle. The cars, clothes, money, women, guns, power and respect. I felt untouchable, invincible...like God himself.

I stopped at the bottom of the staircase and looked around at my home as my thoughts raced. I ran my hand down my face and closed my eyes as I felt my heart rate increased. I needed to calm the fuck down. Never have I been nervous to meet with a connect but this was a special meeting. I been out the game for a little minute so I just hope everything goes right. Shit has been real rocky around these parts as far as loyalty and trust.

Trust is a motherfucker when you play your hand in the game of drugs and money. How I look at things, your worst enemy could be your best friend while your best friend could be your worst enemy.

I watched Monae' come down the steps looking like everything. Her long hair flowed as she held on to the railing of the steps. She sported all white with a pair of white and gold Jimmy Choo heels that I bought for her and a gold and white Chanel satchel clung to her shoulder. Anything my queen wanted, she got. She never had to want for nothing or ask for anything, I always gave to her. Vacations, endless shopping trips, jewelry, cars, money, everything.

She stopped at the end of the steps and kissed me.

"You ready?"

"Yeah bring that ass" I smirked

She giggled as she proceeded to walk in front of me. I closed the door behind me as we both walked outside to our front yard. Different foreign cars rested in the front yard looking like a showroom. I opened her car door, with her getting in and me closing it behind her.

I got in the driver seat, let the top down on my whip and started the ignition. I slowly accelerated the car, driving out the gates of our home. As I hit Grand Central to Brooklyn, I looked over at Monae' who was applying some lipstick to her lips in the passenger visor mirror as her hair blew in the wind. I focused my attention back on the road.

"You look good boo, how much of that pink shit you gonna rub on your lips?''

Monae shrugged her shoulders, "I never thought you paid attention to my makeup Cas"

"That's what's wrong with you females, you think a nigga don't pay attention. I notice everything"

I felt her eyes on me as I continued to drive. I cut my eyes in her direction.

"What?"

"Nothing Cas, nothing"

I chuckled under my breath at her sudden annoyance at me, trying to keep my cool about this meeting. My nerves were getting the best of me. Everything gonna be good nigga stop tripping, I thought to myself.

Brooklyn, NY

Ricardo's Meeting.

I slowly pulled up to the address that Ricardo told us to meet him at.  The sun was starting to set over the city on this summer night. It wasn't too much people lingering around, which was good. We didn't need any unwanted attention. The less attention, the smoother the deal. Monae turned and looked at me, with a slow smile creeping upon her pink lips.

"I'll be right back baby"

I nodded as she kissed my lips again, this time with more passion. She pulled away from me, opened the car door. I grabbed her hand, causing her to look back at me.

"Yeah?"

"You know a nigga love you, right?"

She stared in my eyes before smiling," Aww babe, I love you too" Monae blushed heavily.

"I'll be right back okay, we going to go shopping after this right?"

I nodded and smirked at her beautiful face. She grinned, displaying a radiant set of 32 teeth. Another reason why she got a nigga open, her smile was the best curve on her.

Monae 'stepped out the car, shutting the door behind her. She looked around before walking up to the building. I watched as she swayed her hips as if she knew I was watching her walk. I thought about getting out of the car follow her to make sure everything was alright, but this ain't her first time handling a deal. She got to do this one on her own, so I decided against it

I leaned back in my driver seat back. I reached down in my pocket and took out 5K Diamond ring that did not have one flaw inside of it. This was perfect for her, I was ready to change her last name and wife her. I came a long way from being a playboy to wanting to settle down.

I held the ring up and it glistened soon as the sun rays shone through the window. This was the final deal were gonna do and I wanted to be done. Start a new life, a new beginning. I never seen myself getting married, but that changed when I met Monae'. She was what I was looking for in a female, or so I thought.

I continued looking at the ring that will change Monae and my life forever. I had all these memories flooding my mind as I turned my head to the passenger window and watched Monae 'enter the building. I remember the first day I met this girl and I'd never thought things would come to this.

My thoughts were interrupted by a call coming through on my phone. I flipped it open and answered;

"Yo" I spoke.

"Yeah, everything is set", the voice on the other end confirmed.

I nodded, "Aight man"

I flipped the phone closed and tossed my phone in the passengers seat . I sighed and rubbed my peach fuzz on my chin as my thoughts raced again.

It's crazy how things can change in one year...
