Chapter 11

Shaquille POV

I couldn't bring myself to ask Sherri again, I already told her I asked someone else, too bad she didn't know what the favor is. You see Sherri is great, a beautiful girl... Perfect, but Lilith would have seen right through her, and for this to work, I needed someone different, someone, simple... Someone like Lynn.

"Good morning," she smiled in my face, kissing my lips as she pulled the sheet up to her torso, hiding her nakedness,

"Good morning to you too," I smiled, kissing her lips,

"You are up early, have something on your mind?" She gazed into my eyes, the kind of stares that made me didn't want to lie,

"Yeah... Everything is fine, I am just having a slight headache that's all... Nothing a few Panadol can't fix,"

"Or..." she pulled me closer, "I could think of other ways to cure that migraine of yours," she buried her tongue down my throat,

"Mmm," I moaned in between kisses, pulling away, "like a sexual healing?" Sliding my hand down the sheet, rubbing my thumb over her bud, "Yes, Jensen, something like.... just like that," she moaned lowly, sinking her nails in my shoulders,

"Yes, fucking yes," her moans grew louder as I sank my fingers deep within her walls, thrusting into her as fast as I could,

"Oh, my fucking God, I think I am about to cum."

"Yeah?" I whispered in her ear, "Cum for me... I want you to cream over my fingers,"

Gazing into my eyes her moans got louder and louder, screaming out my name as I finger fucked her,

"Right fucking there! Fuck! Jensen!"

Pulling out my fingers, I stuff them in her mouth, watching her as she licked in between them, enjoying the taste of herself as she cleaned my hand,

"That was... Fucking amazing," she collapsed on her back staring into the ceiling,

"Yeah, it was."

"How about we go get some breakfast? I was thinking about Tibbiz, it's a new place that—"

"I know Tibbiz... Been there twice,"

"But it only opened a week ago,"

"So?"

"You are a busy man Shaquille Jensen... That's what I love about you,"

I said nothing.

"As I was saying..." She added, "I would like breakfast from Tibbiz,"

"Isn't it like a date night out type a restaurant though? I don't think it is even opened at this hour of the morning,"

"True. Just wanted to try it out,"

Of course, she wanted to try it out, she knew about the restaurant and knew how expensive it is, she can't afford to eat there, so that's where I come in. You know sometimes I think I deserve these kinds of women. They seduce me, or I seduce them. We fuck a few times, sometimes once if the sex was lame, but they all do the same thing. They all make sure they get some sort of benefit, and can I blame them? No, I mean... They have something I want, and I have something they want, money.

"Why not something simpler, eggs, bacon, cheese... You can find them all in the refrigerators... Upstairs and downstairs, "

"Are you—" she bolted upright, sitting in the middle of the bed, chuckling lowly with a disdained laugh,

"Are you suggesting that I cook?"

"Yeah, I mean, I am in the process of hiring new staff, but can't seem to find the right agency with good maids. The last set sucked."

I was lying through my teeth and I was hoping she wasn't seeing through them. I was no way near seeking new staff, I can't afford it... To pay the ones before monthly was costing me thousands of dollars, so I terminate their contracts, making them believe that they were doing something wrong, or they weren't doing enough but... I was just broke. But maybe if I can clear up the mess Mr. Brown left me in, I could hire again, and I could pay off Lynn and the others, and if I find a girl suitable enough to trick my father, everything will turn out okay, I will have unlimited access to money and I could expand on my store and just live my best fucking life.

"I don't even cook at my own house, Jensen... Jesus, what happened to you? You were much more fun when we just met," she scoffed, sliding off the bed, wrapping the sheet around her nakedness,

"What did I say wrong? You want to go to Tibbiz at seven in the morning, and I suggested that maybe if you are hungry, you should make something, what is the big deal in that?"

"What if my taste buds were feeling for something luxurious... Medium rare steak as my eggs and red wine for coffee... I don't get you, Jensen, you are acting pretty unusual, if I haven't known better I would say you're broke, but I know you aren't... Daddy Jensen would never let his prize bull go a minute broke," she mumbled walking off to the bathroom, slamming the door shut,

Everyone has this idea of who they think I am and who they think my father is, well for one he has the big C, and the public doesn't know about it and I am not his prize bull as Sherri claimed, well not anymore. We had a... Better relationship before Lilith came around, others say I could get away with murder when it comes on to my father, but the devil showed up at his doorsteps out, wear a fur coat and a red lipstick, and just like magic, she took him away from me, pointing every bad, every scandal, every fling I have had, turning my own flesh and blood against me, so Sherri was wrong... Fucking wrong about so much.

Swing the bathroom door opened, she strolled wearing her clothes from yesterday,

"Come on, is this really necessary... You are leaving?"

"Yes, I—" she wiggled in her skirt,

"I am going to have breakfast at the local diner, then I am going catch a cab go home and get ready for work... Some of us have to work,"

"And I don't work? Who you think runs the stores? Me! Sherry me! Why do people think I am some spoiled brat whose father lets him off easy,"

"Because that's who you are Jensen! " she screeched, "That’s exactly who you are, I looked at the papers Jensen, applying for a business loan? Just how broke are you?"

"The manager before, he fucked things up, and I need money... Fast money to clear of the debts... His debts,"

"So, what about your money, can you just use it and pay off whoever..."

"I can't, my account is frozen,"

"Which one, maybe I can help with that,"

"No, you can’t,"

"Fine, good luck with whatever, bye Jensen,"

Was this over a little breakfast? Or was this something else, something she wasn't telling me?

"Sherri, what's really going on here? Why does my financial status matter so much to you,"

"It doesn't. I have to go," she turned and left, leaving me confused, Sherri was acting strange, and I need to know why too bad I wasn't in a place right to have my P.I. dig into her a little more.

Well, Sherri is gone and out the door for sure, any chance I had to ask her for her help, went with her. I haven't known Lynn for a long time, but I know she is the right girl to do this, she is an ideal full package, but I noticed one thing about her that can be both good and bad, she is stubborn, and since I went behind her bad and told my dad that she is my girlfriend, I don’t think she will agree to help me out. Stand from my bed, I groan as I looked over at the clock, I was going to be late for work, I am still not used to the working world, in fact, I use to tease people who work and now I know it was rude, mean, and distasteful, in fact... I respect everyone who gets ups, goes to a shitty job, I am sure they hate but still... They find it within themselves to stay happy. My father's illness and... him cutting me off did something to me, it changed me, I needed to be reminded of the times we were broke, times before our big break, I needed this lesson to be humbled.

After a quick shower, I got dressed and I drove to work, the employees were standing at the front of the store waiting for me,

"We almost went home, Mr. Jensen... We weren't sure you were coming in today,"

"Sorry everyone, I overslept," I smiled as I opened the door,

"Our new boss is late, and Lynn is still not here," I heard one of them chuckled under their breath, but I said nothing, I don’t want to be accused of her being my favorite, while it could hurt my company it could hurt her as well. Hurrying in, I went straight to the office, allowing them to settle in, soon this place will be crammed with people.

My door swung opened.

"Don't you ever tell me when and when not take a day off... I told you, I am fine, and your secret is safe with me as long as you keep up your end of the bargain," she spoke loud and proud, sounds as if she slept on everything she just said last night,

"Okay, I..."

"And I accept... I will take the offer."
