Chapter 2

Annabelle

I breathe in and out. Constantly saying to myself. I cant disappoint M. Im in my white chef jacket, black slacks, and black pumps. I let my curls out. I didnt wear no makeup. I gather my team in circle. Alright guys lets make some money off these rich snobs all except Greys. And cant thank you guys enough for helping to make my dreams come. You guys are my family.Im some happy right now, and no one can ruin it.

I slap my hands together. Lets off with started the appetizers. Erick take the Mini Crab Cakes. Jesse, you take the Easy Cheesy Bacon Pull Apart Biscuits. (Look it up on Yummly.com/Soul Food). Mary take the Honey Fried Chicken. Oscar please take the Fried Pickles. Jackie take the Deviled Eggs. And finally, Sally can you please take people small plates of Southern Nachos. Remember a fake smile makes your money marker. They shook their heads at my corny joke.

I started to help cook the main course when Alicia bust through the kitchen door. She had on a glitter lace grown. Her hair was in a bun, and she wore pearl earrings, bracelets and necklace. Her shoes are black chunky heels. "What the hell you doing Anna? You have to get dress." Alicia grab my hand and drag me out the kitchen.
Everyone that was around us just ignore us both. You see we are in Maria house when she is hosting after party for her event. You see Maria always have a private charity party.

Her parties always take place on their lands. The Greys dont like being in the public gatherings. They are the most private families.

Alicia push me into the guest room. " Now here your dress, shoes. Once you done I do you your make up, and your hair."

She passes me a blue lace sheer long dress, and silver heels. "What! Why?"

   "Well for one for you to catch a man

"Well for one for you to catch a man." Alicia nods to herself.

"I cant wear this. If it was something simple yeah. But this is see through." I complained.

Alicia rolled her eyes and push me inside of the bathroom. "You're not leaving this bathroom until your ass have that dress on that body of yours."

"Oh Alicia! Is Annabelle being the bathroom like I told you.?" I can hear Maria ask?

"MARIA! This is your doing?" I started to take off my chef jacket.

"Well of course I did honey. You need to be seen. Youre a beautiful woman whos has her own business. I would hope and pray that you can maybe meet my son."

I stop half way before entering the shower. "You think Im beautiful?"

"Well of course you are. Why you think I always sabotage my son recent flings. Because I know when I see a good woman. Besides my son need some chocolate in his life. Shit I had some before getting married to my husband."Maria took a swing of her champagne glass.

Alicia laughs. "Mrs. G therefore I fuck with you."

I laugh hearing what Maria had to said. Maybe it time for me to look for love in other places, and race. My mom always told me I should always marry someone from my own race. You see my mom will never say she hates white people out loud because my dads mom is white. And my mom fears my grandmother.

But she always whispers to me even at a young age that I will never amount to anything, or no one will love me.

"Get your ass out the shower." Alicia bang on the door. I didnt realize I was thinking for so long. That the water turns cold. I reach to grab a towel. Wrapping it around my body.

I stood in front of the mirror repeat to myself. You are a beautiful black successful woman.

Angelo

"Yes, mama I hear you. No, Im fucking with a fling. No, Im not bringing a date. Ti amo anche io mamma ci vediamo presto."(I love you too mom see you soon.)

"Hey, you have to go."I pat the girl on her head. She began to stir out her sleep.

"But Im tired baby."

Doing a 360 out the bathroom back to my room. "Wait a minute. One Im not your baby. Second If you so tired go home to your own bed."

Her face turn red. "You an asshole Grey."

"Trust me baby girl I'll be called worst. Just get you bony ass out my house."

She screams cursing my name. Until one of the guards came to a room, and physically drag her ass out the room.

"Have a safe trip. Channel."

"Its Chanel!"

I shrug my shoulders and walk to the bathroom.

You will be mines tonight Annabelle Davis.
