ever use a blunt to calm himself down . He could almost taste the reefer and cocaine mixture rolling off of his tongue to invigorate his throat, nasal passage and brain.
He reached the door and started patting himself down beforethrowing his hands up in frustration, realizing he hadnât taken the keys out of the ignition. Iâve got to stop letting myself get so tensed up like this. The dealâs gonna come through. Iâm just letting the pressure get next to me, thatâs all. Just being too damn paranoid. He grimaced and stomped back to the car.
âCome on, Al, get it together, man,â he muttered under his breath as he reached inside the car to retrieve the keys.
As he was putting the key in the lock, he began shuddering. He turned around and scanned the neighborhood. He didnât see anything and took a deep breath, then shook off the eerie feeling and pushed the door open. He took one step inside and nearly jumped out of his skin when the shrill sound of the alarm shook him from head to toe.
âWhat the fuck?â Don screamed and jumped off of the couch with his fist balled at his side.
Black Don, the self-proclaimed ruler of downtown drug trafficking and strip club owner, hated being uncomfortable in any situation. Accompanying his aunt, Rose, the former Miami whore, to this money paradise of Atlanta all those years ago had certainly put him at the top of his hustling game. There was plenty of drugs, hoes and money to keep him satisfied, but it wasnât good enough for him. He wanted much much more and was determined as ever to get it. He wasnât comfortable the way Al had just barged in without a warning whatsoever and it showed.
Al could have cared less how this fool felt as he frowned and reached for the alarm beside the light switch. He punched in his code to silence it. He bristled up and turned around to stare angrily at Don. He massaged the bridge of his nose and stepped toward him like a stalking panther.
What the fuck is up with this nigga balling up on me in my own godayum house? Don thought.
Don felt Alâs anger with each advancing step. There was no way he couldâve known about the fuck session heâd just had with Mona, Alâs sexy-as-hell, freak of a woman. It had even surprised him how easy sheâd been to conquer. And that pussy and head was bumping, grade-fucking triple A. Sheâd proven to be too hard to resist, not that heâd tried to. Actually, he was plotting how to hit it as often as possible or simply straight up snatch her from under Alâs rule, toss her in the club and make a mint off of her sexy ass when Al entered abruptly.
Don took a couple of steps back and prepared for whatever. He felt his hands trembling, so he slid them in his pockets to keep Al from seeing the effect his attitude was having on him.
Al sensed his nervousness and stopped at the edge of the couch, He reached across Donâs body to massage his neck and shoulder before he growled, âWhereâs mine, man?â When he took too long to respond, Al stepped around the couch and sneered even more menacingly. âNigga, I asked you where my shit at?â
The tension deflated from Donâs shoulders. Wow, Iâm not busted for my out of control dick play, after all . He sighed heavily. âMy nigga, you shonuff had me spooked for a second there. Itâs out there in the car. I was waiting for you to get here before I got it.â
Al lowered his guard slightly. It didnât stop Don from watching him closely though. He patted him on the shoulder as he brushed by and whispered, âDamn, partner, whatâs got you so pumped up?â He didnât bother waiting for an answer and continued out of the door to get the package.
Al didnât budge an inch, letting him know that he wasnât for any nonsense. Al started nibbling on his bottom lip trying to bring his anger under control. He sighed and walked over to the bar and mixed
