“I keep my promises,” I said, turning around to face him.

Weston pecked my lips. “I see that. Shit, I know that. I just know I come with a lot right now. Anybody would run away from that.”

“I’m not just anybody.”

He smiled. “You’re right.” He climbed on top of me. “You’re not just anybody. You have something special, Taja.”

He kissed me, sending sparks throughout my body. The next thing I knew, he was delivering powerful strokes to my body.

“I’m goingto get fired because of you, Weston,” I fussed as we pulled into my apartment complex.

He laughed. “No, you’re not! Stop thinking that. I wouldn’t allow them to fire you.”

I sucked my teeth. Weston would not let me out of his hold. He wanted to explore every inch of my body multiple times. After pleading for him to give my coochie a break, he finally agreed to drive me to my apartment so that I could get my work stuff and more clothes.

“You swear you got that much pull at TRU,” I teased. However, I knew Weston had all the pull in the world at the company.

He parked the car and leaned over, placing a sweet kiss on my lips. “Because I do.”

I playfully rolled my eyes. “Give me five minutes. It shouldn’t take me long.”

“You don’t need me to go up with you?”

I shook my head. “Nah, I see my car parked over there, so I’m sure Jay is gone.”

“Go ahead, I’ll be out here waiting.”

I rushed up the stairs to grab my items. As soon as I approached the door, I could hear music blaring from the other side. Jay was still there after I told him to leave two days ago. Inserting my key, I saw my apartment exactly as I’d left it. There were no moving boxes, no trash bags, no nothing. Jay was sitting on the couch with his head in his hands. When he heard me shut the door, he looked up at me with wide eyes.

“Ta, baby.” He jumped up from the chair.

“Why are you here? I thought I told you to be gone. Do I need to call the police?”

“Ta.” He tried to step close to me, but I moved out of the way.

The hurt in his eyes didn’t faze me. Jay did me in the worst way possible. Cheating on me in our bed while I did nothing but give him all of me hurt like hell. There was no coming back from his actions.

“Jay, there is nothing to discuss. Get your shit and get the fuck out!” I stormed past him, heading to my room to grab my items.

“You’re not even giving me a chance to talk?”

“I don’t care to hear what you have to say! The deed is done. Shit, we are done, Jay.”

He stood silently. I moved around my room as if he weren’t standing there. I grabbed everything that I needed, throwing it into a bag. There was nothing Jay could do to make me change my mind about where I stood.

“Where are you going?” he suddenly asked.

My eyebrow raised as I looked at him. There was no way he was questioning where I was going. We were done, and he didn’t have the right to know.

“That is none of your business.” I went back to packing my bag.

“Who is he?”

I stopped throwing my items in the bag and glanced at him. I laughed to stop from cursing him out. The nerve of him to even ask that. However, if he wanted to know, I had no issue with telling him.

“Not that it is any of your fucking business, but there is no one...yet.” I smiled, thinking about Weston waiting on me outside.
