B-More Love
Leo Sullivan - 2012
Since the nigga who lived there had left to go out of town to take some “work,” a female was left to watch the house until he returned. The dope and money was stashed in a bedroom closet on the first floor. All we had to do was a quick house invasion. I parked down the street from the house. It was a nice Spanish style brick home. Pink and fuchsia zinnias limed the flagstone walkway. There was a eerie quietness about the house as we approached, I had my nine in my drawers. Ski Mask had the .380. I could feel my palms sweating, my pulse racing as I looked around prepare to knock. It felt like I had been injected with high octane fuel in my veins. All the lights were off inside the house, I looked around suspiciously and knocked on the door. I looked at Ski Mask. He looked nervous as hell. Suddenly there was a feminine voice on the other side of the door. “Who is it?”“Mike from across the street. There’s a fire in your yard.” “A fire?” She opened the door and there stood one of the baddest bitches I had never seen. Fine like a model, light skinned with hazel eyes, long blonde hair weave, big titties with nipples pointing right at me. I leveled my pistol to her head and rushed inside. She looked like she wanted to scream. “Bitch, if you make a sound, I’ma kill you!” She nodded her head, “Take anything you want. Just don’t hurt me. I’ll do anything you ask.” I turned around to shut the door and noticed Ski Mask was gone, Scary as nigga, I said to myself, and pushed the chick toward the hall where the bedroom was located, Second door on the right, Ski Mask had told me. I moved fast, according to the plan. The home was plush with expensive furniture and thick shag carpeting, At the bedroom door, as I was about to open it, I thought I heard a floor board paneling creek above me on the second floor. This bitch was watching me closely as I turned the bedroom doorknob. Maybe it was my mind playin tricks on me, but the chick didn’t act as scared as broads normally do, all cryin n shit. She was watching me, nibbling on her bottom lip. I noticed lipstick had smeared on her front teeth, so instead of going through the bedroom door first, I gestured for her to enter. She hesitated and walked in. I couldn’t help noticing her fat ass jiggling in the short satin nightgown.Inside the bedroom, it was a king sized bed with lots of mirrors with fancy chairs and a matching mahogany dresser. Suddenly the strangest thing happened, it was surreal. The chick started to undress. “Bitch, wha’cha doin?!” I exclaimed, I thought I heard foot steps outside the bedroom door, this shit was bizarre. She slithered out the gown. The fur between her legs was trimmed like a heart.“Lemme suck dat dick,” she cooed. Stupefied, I frowned at her. I felt like I was having out of body experience, I was moving slow and she was going fast. She sashayed over to the bed and lay on her back, spreading her legs. Pink pussy galore. She wiggled a finger at me, like “come here.” Something about her startled my senses, tingling, alarming, signaling for me to go, run! But I couldn’t if I wanted to. Not with a million dollars and enough dope to have a nigga straight for a lifetime. I walked over to the closet door with my eye on the bitch."
