All I did was tell this man NO. He's rich, he's a Don, he could have anything and anyone he wanted but took a set on me because I told him no. It was like nobody had ever said that word to him, so now I have to suffer the consequences. At first I figured he would leave me alone, but I was so wrong, he made it his mission to get to me. I guess I was the only person to not give him whatever he wanted. Now mi trapped inna him world. "So yuh naah give me yuh name?" King questions, glancing at me from the driver's seat.

Hope mi nuh see him again.

"Yuh love mi, Niyah?" He doesn't blink when he asks. His eyes hold hers steady, not playful, not teasing. Serious. Like the answer matters more than he's willing to admit.
