Page 48 of No Remedy for Love

The slurping sounds that she made bounced off the walls, as he fucked her face like she forced him to. That was bad enough, but he almost jumped off the sofa when she started massaging his balls. He felt like a millions bolts of lightning were shooting throughout his body, as Remi sucked the life out of him. Now, he knew why Mav was acting like a bitch. Blaze wasn’t mad at him because he was about to start acting the same way. Remi was a keeper, and he was gonna be the nigga to keep her.

“Damn girl.”

Remi could tell by the tightness of his balls that he was almost there. She licked up and down his shaft before tightening her jaw muscles and taking him to the back of her throat again. Blaze groaned and gritted his teeth as he released the stress of the last few months into her mouth and collapsed on the sofa.

“Come get in the bed when you catch your breath. I’m sure you can’t drive home like that,” Remi laughed as she got up and sashayed down the hall to her master bedroom.

Blaze was spent, and he couldn’t even reply right away. He laid there for a few more minutes to catch his breath just like Remi told him to. He was back up and on his feet not too long after though. He didn’t know how long it had been since Remi had sex, but it had been months for him.

“I hope your fine ass is ready cause ain’t gon’ be no sleeping up in here tonight.”

Blaze walked down the hall to Remi’s bedroom, ready to finish what they started. He was hoping that she didn’t wake up with regrets because he damn sure didn’t have any.

“Man, I been told you that lil bitch was sneaky. That’s why I never liked her ass. I can’t believe you rented property all the way on the Northshore just to be close to her snake ass.”

Mark was pissed once his son finished telling him everything that went down between him and Remi. Mav had damn near turned into a stalker. He was going to areas where Remi was known to be and he called her more times than anyone could count. For as long as he lived, he would never be able to understand the hold that Remedy had on his son. Mav had a beautiful family but he still wasn’t satisfied. Mark saw a lot of himself in his son, and that’s what he hated the most. He had a beautiful family as well but he lost it all behind them hoes in the street that he didn’t even want. He tried to steer his son inthe right direction, but Mav was indeed his father’s child. He got into some bullshit last time messing with Remi, and Mark never liked her since then.

“Chill out with the name calling, bruh.”

Mav hated when his father got disrespectful with Remi. It was no secret that he didn’t like her, but he went too far at times. Mark loved Kiva and so did Mav. He just couldn’t help that he still loved Remi too.

Mav couldn’t even lie; he was sick over the way things ended with Remi. Truthfully, they never really ended things. They just seemed to have drifted apart and he knew why. Remi must have really been feeling Blaze and you rarely saw one without the other. It was no longer a secret and people were starting to talk. Shit got even worse when he found out where Blaze’s new shop was. Now, it all made sense why he and Remi were meeting up with contractors at the office building next to the rec center. That was her new man’s new barbershop. Mav kept passing around there the day of his grand opening, and Remi was on his arm like a proud girlfriend the entire time. He had a big turnout, and Mav ended up losing two of his barbers. They decided to jump ship and go work in Blaze’s shop.

“I’m not understanding what kind of closure you’re looking for. You already said that she was fucking with some other nigga. Let him have her and be thankful that Kiva didn’t find out what was going on. That’s how you lost her the first time. I can’t believe you went and did the same shit again. You got away with your life and freedom. I thought you would have learned your lesson. Remedy should have been the last person on your mind. You must want Kiva to leave your ass.”

“Me and Kiva are good. And I’m not looking for no closure from Remi. Shit, I got that when she started fucking with the other nigga. I just feel some kind of way about how the shit ended. I kept asking her if she was fucking with that nigga and she kept saying no. She made it seem like she didn’t even know him.”

“Yeah right. I bet his grandmother ain’t even her patient like she lied and said.”

“I really think she is. I think that’s the truth about how they met. All this shit is just crazy. Blaire is his sister and Ferris is fucking with his wife. This is some hood soap opera bullshit if you ask me.”

“Do Ferris know that Remi is fucking with ole girl’s husband?”

“That nigga don’t give a fuck. He don’t really want her like that. He got his reasons. Remi be the main one swearing that she don’t fuck with niggas who got a girl and all that other bullshit. This nigga got a whole wife outchea.”

“She’s a hoe; they don’t have no preferences.”

“Nah, she ain’t no hoe.”

“You still sitting here defending this bitch after she showed you what it is. You outchea bout to fight over her ass and shit. I don’t know what it’s gonna take for you to see that she just ain’t right. You got your second chance, bruh. Don’t blow it. Trust me, niggas like me wish we could turn back the hands of time. I fucked up with your mama. Don’t make the same mistake. I promise you’ll live to regret it. You need to marry Kiva and bring me some more grandkids.”

“That’s coming eventually. Man, I love Kiva but she gotta get off a nigga back sometimes. That’s what I love abut Remi. We can just have fun with no arguing and shit.”

Kiva was always in business woman/mommy mode. She wasn’t the same fun-loving girl that she was when they got together. She was boring to him now, and he needed some excitement in his life.

“That girl must have put some roots on your ass. Did she ever cook you some spaghetti?”

“What that got to do with anything?”

“She might have put some special ingredients in it. I heard that her granny used to be into all that voodoo shit.”

“That shit ain’t true. Let me bring you home, so I can get back over here by her people. I hope she ain’t trying to be over here all day.”

Kiva’s brother and father were in town and they were doing a seafood boil by her mother’s house. Mav was cool with her whole family but he wasn’t in the mood for Kerri and her messy ass daughters. Kiva and her sister weren’t speaking but that never lasted long. Once they got around their mother and cousins, they would make sure they made up before they left. Mav and his father went to look at some blighted property so he dropped Kiva and his son off until he was done.

“Yeah, go spend some time with your family. Chasing behind that bum bitch Remedy ain’t gon’ do nothing but get you caught up again.”

Mav didn’t even reply. He was done listening to his father’s negativity. He wasn’t wrong, but it just wasn’t what he wanted to hear at the time. He was really fucked up aboutthe entire situation but he didn’t expect him to understand. He couldn’t help who he loved, no matter how fucked up it was.
