Page 20 of When Darkness Comes Knocking
We laughed together. “Yeah, you might be right about that, but she did a great job. Tahiri has a steady hand.”
Perrae chuckled a little more. “Don’t let her hear you say that. She’ll use you as one of her clients every time you come over.”
“Well, let me be quiet then.”
Together, we laughed. I pulled her throw blanket over us, and she snuggled closer to me.
“I just wanna thank you for coming into my life and accepting my kids as well. I know it’s easier maintaining one, but it’s different having to balance three additional kids,” Perrae revealed.
I rubbed up and down her arm. “No thank you is needed. I keep telling you that. It’s what I’m supposed to do. You and yourkids are a package deal. I can’t pursue you and say the hell with them. I ain’t built like that.”
Perrae sat up and looked at me. “I get it. I’d accepted the bare minimum and breadcrumbs for so damn long that I’ve accepted that, that’s how every man is. You do deserve a thank you though, Fortune.
“This may be what you want to do, but it’s not what you have to do. You are a great man. Much different than Big J. He ruined my life.
“I won’t go into everything, but he used and abused me. Like you, he was in the streets, too, except he wasn’t running shit. He was a destroyer. Big J was a menace to society.
“He’s locked up now. Serving big time for murder. That was after all the times he gaslit me, lied, cheated, and beat me.
“I learned to fight because I got tired of him hitting me. I’d kick him out then let him back in as soon as he released those crocodile tears. I was so young with such a hard ass life.
“It had got so bad that the kids started to witness our destruction. We had one last blow up, and I shot him. The twins had turned three. He came home drunk and high and ruined the entire party.
“We had an all-out fight. He wouldn’t leave, so I popped him right in his leg. It was then I knew I had to cut all ties with him.
“Two years later, he got locked up for murder. He’ll be in there for the rest of his life. That was the best news I’d received in a long time.
“His arrest really kicked things in gear for me. We moved into a different apartment while on Section 8. When my salon really took off, I knew it was time to put my babies in a real home. A home that we owned. I did just that.
“What I endured from Big J changed a lot of things for me. I’d dated a few times, but I never slept with any of those men. They weren’t worthy. I’d been celibate for four years, andtonight, you’re getting all this pent-up sexual tension.” Perrae’s tone matched the intent in her soft brown eyes.
“You are more than worthy, Fortune. Everything about you is beautiful and worthy to be loved.” I went to speak, but she placed her finger on my lips. “Don’t talk. Just sit back and enjoy.”
“Bu-but what about the kids?” I stuttered when her cold hand reached inside my shorts and grabbed my dick.
“The girls aren’t coming out anymore tonight. Trust me.” Perrae lowered between my legs and pulled my dick all the way out.
My head fell back the moment her mouth made contact with my dick. “Shit,” I cursed. Oh, tonight was about to go way different than I expected.

Perrae
My head bobbed up and down and sloppily over Fortune’s big ass dick. That man was highly blessed and favored by the gods. I couldn’t stop savoring him if I wanted to.
That dick had a hold on me. He was hung, thick as hell, and draped in thick veins. Yeah, Fortune had that bully dick. I knew the moment we got undressed, those back shots would be out of this world.
Fortune’s hands found my head, and he fucked my mouth nice and slow. His big body moved like water. Oh, we were about to have some fun tonight.
I licked from the base to the tip, sucking harder and fondling his balls. I added the right amount of pressure because Fortune pulled me up and stood.
There was a deadly look in his eyes as he hefted me up. My legs instantly wrapped around his waist. We never broke eye contact.
“Perrae, I’m telling you now. The moment I take you up those stairs and I enter you, there ain’t no going back to just dating. You are all mine. Mine. Am I clear?”
I nodded. “Yes, I understand. I am yours, and you are most certainly mine.”
