Chapter 1: Devyn and Ivy

Hi, I'm Ivy Swinn and I'm the biggest event planner in Houston, TX. I know what's happening and what's going to be happening. I work for Devyn Event Interests, Inc. I'm the Senior Event Coordinator. I've been working with Devyn Event Interests for about 5 years now. I'm paid very generously and live well because of it. I have a penthouse in Crawford Luxury Apartments in Downtown Houston. I also drive a beautiful cherry red 2017 Ferrari 458 Italia.

And that's not even the best perk of my job. The best perk of my job?? I get to be the boss's lady. That's right, I get to sleep with the big man, haha. Devyn and I have known each other since we we're in grade school. Our moms were best friends so, we were best friends. Ha! Yea who am I kidding. Devyn and I hated each other. We we're the same age, he ran with the popular crowd since he was the star football player in high school. And me? Well, I was that girl who had no clique to chill with because she was in a clique all on her own. I never cared for popularity but it followed me because I had the fattest ass in the school. Lord! If I tell you I don't know how many boys I had to curve, haha. I just wanted to get out of high school and on to college so I could be the best Event Planner Houston had to offer. Devyn always embraced the females attention and I despised him for it. I always loved Devyn. Who wouldn't? He had sexy washboard abs that made your mouth water. His arms were to die for. They were huge and bulged through his sleeves. He stood at 6'3' and was very well endowed. Of course at that time I didn't know, that's just what I had heard from the sluts of the school.

It wasn't until after high school that he really start to notice me as an actual woman and, not as the stupid girl next door. I went to University of Houston Main Campus and he went to Texas State. We would see each other on the holidays when our moms would have them together. It started first with just looks and a smirk here and there. Then, one Christmas about 5 years ago we got the chance to become close. We were out late in the front yard talking about my future plans and he decides to give me the sloppiest kiss I could image. I looked at him and asked, "What the hell was that Devyn?" He looked at me sheepishly and just shrugged. I started to walk away since I became offended that he thought he could just lay his nasty ass lips, not knowing where they been ass lips, on me!

"Wait Ivy, baby." he said.

"Baby? I'm not your baby. I can't believe that you thought you could just lay your nasty ass lips that I don't know where have been on me. The fuck?" I retorted.

"Well damn, tell me how you feel then bruh." He laughed.

"I just did fool. What the hell makes you think you could do that, huh?" I pressed him for an answer.

"Look Ivy, I haven't told you because I figured that you wouldn't have anything to do with me but, I'm feelin' you man. Like, really. I think about you all the time and I worry about you. You know me Ivy, I don't give a fuck about no bitch. But with you, I can't help but feel protective and wanting to be with you in more than just "Our moms are best friends so that makes us friends" typa way." He rushed out.

I knew this was hard for him since he was telling the truth about caring about females. Devyn was as much of a player as a player can get. He also had his reputation to consider since he was the drug lord. That's another thing that worried me. I was just a soldier in his gang. Why the hell was he focused on me?

"Um...i honestly don't know what to say Devyn..." I started to say.

"...Well are you gonna be my lady or not?" He demanded.

"Wait Devyn, shit. I never thought that you would think about me like that. You the leader of the gang so why the hell are you so focused on me anyway? You can have any bitch that you want. I'm just a soldier. It won't look good to see the leader fuckin around with a soldier." I replied.
