Chapter 8

Marcus P.O.V

I sighed as I laid in my bed and thought about what would my day would bring. I had a lot planned for the day. I had to get use to walking around with a fucking sling on my arm, all thanks too my ex girl Bri.

I ha to maintain the trap house and Me and Kings other businesses while he was locked down. I also had to take care of my son. I'm stressed as hell right now. I got too much on my plate.

I thought about the last time I had sex. The last time I did was with Jozie. Damn I missed her. She died a few months. So some sex was long overdue for me. I pushed the thoughts out of my head and climbed out of bed.

I walked into my a jointed bathroom and took a quick shower. I walked out if the bathroom with a towel around my waist and walked into my closet. Since I had a business meeting today, I dressed in a black suit an tie.

After I was dressed and ready I won't and woke my son up. It only took me about 20 minutes to get him dressed. I walked into his room and gently patted him on his cheek

"Wake up kid."

He groaned and rolled over.

"Come'on. I gotta go to work son. Ima take you to play with Camaro an Kamari."

He rolled over onto his back and looked up at me while rubbing his eyes. I picked him up with my one good arm and carried him to his bathroom in the hall. I sat him on the counter and began getting his toothbrush ready for him. While he rushed his teeth I walked back into his room too find him some to wear. I told him to get dressed while i made him some breakfast.

I quickly walked into the kitchen and warmed him up a croissant breakfast sandwich. I wrapped it up for him as he walked into the kitchen fully dressed. I handed it to him and grabbed his hand as we headed out the door.

When we arrived at Kay's house I helped him out of the car and into the house. We were greeted at the door by King's mom.

"Goodmorning ms.Carrie." I greeted her.

"Goodmorning sweetie. How are you?" She replied with a smile.

"I'm making it. How are you?"

"I'm doing just fine."

She then reached down and greeted MJ. She then welcomed him in the house with the rest of the kids and I left heading towards the trap.

As I drove I thought about what I would say too the workers. I felt as if somebody was plotting against us and working for the police. But who? There wrre over 100 men working for us, and we trusted all if them. But I would soon find out.

I arrived at the trap moments later and walked in. I had already told everyone ahead of time to meet me here so they were all here waiting. I walked in and the room became quiet. I looked in all the men's faces and tried to read them. I tried to find any sign of fear in them. If I found some fear then that means they were worried about something. These men had nothing to worry about, unless they knew something I didn't.

"Look ima keep this shit good and short. King's locked up. But he went in it some false charges held against his finance. He was suppose to be out days ago. But they kept him and tryna pin some drug chargers on him. Now that sound kinda funny don't it? Because y'all knew me and King been tryna get out of this and hand it over to our man Blue. So either the cops lying, or somebody in this very room is snitching. "

The men all started to mumble stuff and look around at each other.

"I advise you to stop that shit while you ahead. Because if we find out who you are, it's gone be OV kid. Y'all know better than to try us." I said as I looked into each and every one of their faces.

Then Blue stepped forward and said few words to the men and with that I gave Blue a pound and I left. I said all i had to say. Either the bitch ass niggas that snitching, gone stop or he gone be dead before he know it. I got my mind away from all that and headed to my business meeting. Me and King invested our money into stocks and shit like that too keep the money rolling.

The meeting today was with other business partners to make sure the money was flowing good. I arrived there moments later and walked into the large building, got on the elevator, went to the correct floor, walked into the conference room and took a seat in one of the chairs.

As I sat there I continued to check my watch. I didn't have nothing else to do today, but I was a very impatient man. These meetings lasted to long, and all they did was talk about nothing. They talked about a bunch of irrelevant shit before they told us about how out money was doing.

A little while later the meeting began. The C.E.O of the stocks was up talking about stuff I wasn't trying too hear. I was tuned out just looking around the room, when the door opened and in rushed a woman.

"I'm so sorry Im late. I over slept. I truly apologize." She said in her thick Hispanic ascent.

Her voice first caught my attention. Then I looked into her face and was amazed. Too say that she was beautiful was an understatement, this woman was absolutely stunning.

"It's fine Ms.Isabella. Please join us."

The only available seat was the one next to me, because I always sat in the back. She came and politely sat in the seat. She glanced over at me and gave me an award winning smile.

I tried my best to keep my eyes off of her. But I felt as if she was teasing me. She slowly sat back in her seat an crossed her legs. She had on this small ass skirt so all her legs and half of her thighs were out.

She noticed I was looking and giggled and slid her body under the chair so I couldn't see. I took my eyes off of her legs and looked into her face, our eyes met once again. She smile and looked away.

Soon the meeting was coming to an end. As he said his final words he said something about usnpartnering up to come up with some ideas on how to keep our business going and how to make them better.

It was just my luck that I was partnered with Isabella. Some other nigga volunteered to be her partner, but she curved his ass and said she wanted to be partnered with me.

I smiled on the inside knowing she wanted me just as much as I wanted her. As the meeting ended and everyone began to exchange numbers with their partners, me and Isabella kind of just sat there. Finally, I cleared my throat and spoke up.

"What's up ma? I'm Marcus."

She smiled and extended her arm to shake mine. "I'm Isabella. So um, I guess we're partners."

"I guess so. How we gonna talk about this stuff? You wanna exchange numbers or meet up for lunch sometimes."

"I don't trust you enough to give you my number, you might be a stalker or something."

I laughed. "Girl please. If anything you gonna be tryna stalk me."

"And who are you to be trying to stalk?"

I leaned closer to her and said. "We'll, I can show you a little bit more than I can tell you."

She placed her hand in my chest and gently pushed me back away from her as she turned her head to break our gaze.

"How does tomorrow around 1 at the new restaurant on 10th sound?" She asked.

"Perfect."

"Good. See you then. Hasta luego." She said as she got up to leave.

I watched her walk away and enjoyed every minute of it. I knew I had to get in that , one way or another.
