Deception and lies come easy to the cunning…

Eight-thirty A.M., the minute the doors open, I am strutting through the doors of the bank on Prospect Avenue in West Orange, stylishly dressed in a black Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress that hangs four inches above my knee—still sexy, yet conservative, and six-inch pumps. My hair is pulled back in a sleek, shiny ponytail, my long bang swept in one big curl along my jaw. A pair of black Chanels cover my lashed eyes. My earrings, choker, and tennis bracelet are flooded in diamonds. The five-carat rare red diamond solitaire on my left ring finger perfectly matches the red lipstick coating my lips. Matches the fire burning in my blood, symbolizing the war being waged against Jasper, and the dangers soon to follow once the nigga learns I’ve cleaned out his safes.

Two six-foot-seven, three-hundred-plus-pound bodyguards—compliments of my newly appointed security team Lamar put together—follow me through the bank’s glass doors, rolling behind them the fruits of Jasper’s drug dealing.

It’s not every day a beautiful black woman struts into a bank with two handsomely strapped, suited-up men, wheeling in two suitcases packed with money. I had to dress the part. Look the part. Be the part.

A fly bitch on the move.

Immediately, the branch manager greets me, a wide smile pressed over her glossed lips. I state my business, hand her my safety-deposit box key, then follow her down the red-carpeted aisle to a shiny-chrome elevator. She slides her key-card in, the door opens and we step in. A few seconds later, we’re down in the basement walking a long corridor to the vaults.

She greets two security guards as we walk by. One of them walks behind us. The huge concrete and reinforced steel-cladded vault door is already open. She punches in a few codes, then slides back the thick steel gate. The officer with us, stands guard.

I watch as she takes my key and inserts it into a lock and turns it simultaneously with a key—among many others, on a large ring. On the outside, I am cool and calm, the epitome of sophistication. But everything on the inside of me shakes. I am a nervous wreck. From the second I slid behind the wheel of my Benz and rode through my gates—with these muscled men trailing behind me, I’ve been on high alert, practically bordering paranoia. The only thing I kept thinking during the entire ride here is, I’m being followed. I’m going to be ambushed, robbed, and killed.

And even now, in spite of being flanked by two beefy, hard-bodied bodyguards, Jasper’s fucking ass has me on edge!

My buzzing cell phone causes me to blink. I dig it out of my purse, glancing at the screen. I roll my eyes. It’s him. I press DECLINE.

The bank employee glances over her shoulder. “If you need to you use your phone, don’t even bother trying. We have horrible reception down here.”

I pull my shades up over my head. “There’s absolutely no one I need to speak to at the moment.
