In Spite of the Bosset Life(28)
“You still my trophy,” said Ace, cracking a smile. That warmed my heart. Ace always said sweet things to me.
“Forever…”
“I need to get this off my chest though, Ace.” I turned his smile to a more serious facial expression. He sighed deeply. I knew it was a lot to get in one day but everything that had been said needed to be said. If we wanted to move on with our lives, we had to communicate and tell what was on our hearts.
Chapter 13
“Abir-”
“You f*cked him?” asked Ace, stopping me in a questioning low tone.
“No…”
“What about him?” asked Ace, rubbing his hands together. I sat back and held back my tears. I decided to switch up my approach.
“When you left, the Feds came looking for you. The bank accounts were frozen like you said. They seized a lot of our shit. They couldn’t find you, so they got me and material things. I was in jail fighting charges on smuggling and drug trafficking.” It was quiet and I could see Ace was hurt that I had to go through so much shit all because of him. “Murder charges too.”
“You went to jail?” asked Ace, not knowing. He looked at me and his eyebrows was raised. Ace was sitting up now.
“Yes, Sebastian and Nola did everything to get the charges dropped. Abir came in and got me off. I’m on probation for two more years. Anyway, Abir started helping me out. I was broke and he helped me with restoring the furniture store. After time and me being vulnerable, he tried to-”
“He tried to what?” Ace looked like he was ready to go kill someone. I licked my lips and closed my eyes.
“He acted to be my friend for so long, I was blind. He came into your office when I was working. He grabbed me and tried to rape me,” I said, getting it out. It sounded chopped up because I was crying. I hadn’t told no one but Nola what Abir tried to do. Ace instantly held me. He was on his knees rocking me.
“Koì, I’m right here. I promise, I will never let nobody hurt you. You come before anything. I promise. You put yo life on my words! I got you and Majesty. Where was Akamai?”
“He was the one who stopped it. Abir went ghost afterwards. Don’t do anything stupid. I can’t let you leave me again. I won’t make it,” I said, holding my husband’s face. He looked to be in deep thought. I could see the wheels in his head rolling. I knew my husband.
“Look, we go through shit but we also grow through it too. You gave me a beautiful daughter and you stayed down. Regardless of that, Robbie or whoever dude was, you still held me down in other ways. I gotta give you credit. I tried to install and show you your own strength before I left. But these three years had been crazy for you and you didn’t fold. You could’ve ratted me out. I can’t even picture you in jail because you too beautiful and you’re not some criminal. That’s why I call you my trophy. That shit will forever blow my mind. So, don’t worry about nothing. I’ll worry and blame myself for the both of us. Ace still loves you and always will.” I stared deeply in his eyes. Our love was so strong, it was self-destructive and self-repairable, all in one. Looking in his eyes gave me a free path to his soul. That’s where I got my answers from. It was okay for me to love my husband like he never left.
“You mean that boo? You still love me?” Ace had tripped out on me and had scared me. I didn’t know if he wanted to kill me or make amends earlier. Plus, him being gone. I felt you couldn’t just leave someone you love. That’s not love. I was unsure. Ace could’ve been living a whole different life while I was here raising his child. I wonder if the nigga was getting some * but I just let it go. If he was, it would come out eventually. His ass would get f*cked up too, eventually.
“Yes Mook... I don’t know about you but I miss my wife,” said Ace, touching my face. That’s all he had been doing, touching my damn face. I touched his face and looked him in his eyes. Ace then pinched my nipple, reading my mind. It was so weird when he did that. He stood up and bent over, playing with my breast.
“Ohh, I missed my husband! Ace, you just not in the clear. You leaving is not what marriage is all about. But in the meantime, can I get some? Like right now,” I said, being thirsty. I kinda was worried he wouldn’t want to have sex with me after knowing I gave my body to another man. Ace just smiled, letting me know I was wrong. He still really loved his Koì. It had been three longggg years. It was time for us to stop talking and get to some good f*cking. After, I would deal with the feelings I had about him leaving his family.
“My freak a leak,” said Ace, before kissing me. I wouldn’t turn him loose. I didn’t care if I ran outta breath. He was gon understand how much I missed him. I started undoing his belt, still kissing him like crazy. I pulled down the zipper and Ace let me pull his hard dick out. Now, I did stop to look at his dick and take it all in. I told y’all I had a dick fetish. My mouth watered and Ace knew I wanted to put it in my mouth. He was so hard and I could’ve cried. His dick alone had my panties wet. Ace stood up all the way and walked me to the side. I stopped because I wanted to f*ck right now. Ace didn’t protest but stopped on the plush carpet steps. He dimmed the lights down and started kissing me once more.
“You don’t understand how much a nigga had to beat his meat. I fantasized about you all the time,” said Ace, gliding his hands over my body like it was the first time. My body was tight and fit. After Majesty, I dropped all my weight. Being depressed all the time gave me a reason to hit the gym and get some tension off.
