The Lyon

We've been tracking Anika for a couple of days now but she really hasn't done anything out of the ordinary yet...a few calls here, a few text messages there, but outside of talking to her mother and father, they've all been about business. I talked to her earlier, you know to keep up the front as if I'm out of town, and she thinks that I'm coming back in town today for a second because tonight I'm going to sign over everyone's share of their stock to them. Cookie already left for the office a couple of hours ago, spending these past few weeks locked away with her have been like heaven to me.

I never realized just how much I missed her ass...those smooth legs wrapped around my waist, her full lips pressed against mine, the blissful sounds of her moans when we make love. DAMN, just thinking about her gets me excited...after seventeen years of trying everything in my power to not think about her, my mind is now constantly bombarded with images of her in all her glorious forms. I adjusted my handkerchief in my jacket then started heading downstairs towards my waiting car to make my way back to into the city and to Empire.

I strolled into my office as Becky handed me a stack of paperwork that needed my signature...I took a seat behind my desk, began to survey the documents, then proceeded to sign off on the ones that I found satisfactory. Honestly, I'm finding it exceptionally hard to focus, probably because I don't really want to be here today but business is business, I thought while running my hand over my goatee and releasing a deep exhale. I pressed the intercom on my desk, "Becky...could you tell Cookie that I need to see her in my office for a second, please." I spoke as I leaned back in my chair...I know that I shouldn't be risking it like this, but I just need to see her for a few minutes then I know I'll be able to concentrate on the business at hand.

As soon as I finished my statement my office doors opened and in Anika walked... She rushed over to me, slid into my lap, put her arms around my neck, then looked up at me, "Hey, babe. We've missed you so much." She muttered with her hand on her stomach, I scooted towards the edge of the chair so I could stand up and get her ass off my damn lap...her feet hit the floor, as I stood and I leaned against the side of my desk. "Hey, I've missed you too." I lied, while staring down at her as her hands found their way around my neck once again... "How's my cub doing in there?" I asked. "Great...better than great now that daddy's back home." She gushed. I inwardly screamed, This bitch is really laying it on thick, the little voice in my head echoed, "You know I'm only in town for the day, right sweetie...I'm heading back out first thing in the morning." I uttered.

She pouted up at me, "Do you really have to leave again Lucious? Can't you send Andre or somebody else out instead?" She asked, "No, I don't want..." Before I could complete my sentence Cookie strutted into the room looking sexy as hell in her black leather pencil skirt, red and black snake skin blouse, six inch heels with the matching print, and gold accessories from head to toe. "You wanted to see..." Her words trailed off as she saw us leaned against the desk, my arms around Anika's waist...I saw a smile creep across Anika's face when she saw her, she glanced in Cookie's direction, then back up at me. She planted a kiss on my lips before I had a chance to respond to the question Cookie asked me, "I love you baby. Me and your cub will see you at home later on. Yeah?" She murmured, then pulled her arms down, and stepped out of my grasps. I shook my head.

This girl really doesn't understand that she was playing with fire, Cookie was staring daggers through her ass... "Yeah." I replied as she started to walk away, but not before she tossed a victorious glare in Cookie's direction...as if she won or something, but if she only knew that just a few hours ago I was using my lips and my tongue in between that woman's thighs as I gave her a special wake up call this morning before she left for the office...then I doubt her ass would be cheesing so hard.

I waited a few minutes to ensure that the coast was clear, "What that bitch want?" Cookie asked me as I approached her... "Nothing new, claimed she missed me or some shit. Don't worry bout that." I whispered down towards her as I pulled her body into me, my hands rested in the small of her back, her plump breast sat propped firmly against my chest, as those big almond eyes gazed up at me... "Damn, you looking good Cooks." I smiled, as a grin spread across her face, "Lucious you know we've got to be careful, what if somebody busts up in here and see's us like this." She said, attempting to step away from me, but I ain't even having that shit...oh nah, not today.

"Nobody's coming in here, everybody but YOU knows better than to just bust into my office." I uttered. She rolled her eyes at me, "Whatever you say, regardless, didn't you just see me this morning, I look the same as I did when I left you in bed earlier." This is true, but it doesn't negate the fact that she's still looking flawless and I just wanted to hold her, "Yeah, but this is the first time that I'm getting to look at you and hold you as my woman under office light." I teased, she chuckled and slapped me on my arm... "Shut up you damn fool."

Just as I leaned my head down to steal a kiss we heard an alert... "Urgent Private Message Alert, Urgent Private Message Alert." The Iphone linked to Anika's prompted, oh really I thought to myself as I pulled it from my suit jacket...this is the first time that we've gotten an urgent message alert since the last time she talked to her Doctor Friend a couple of days ago, sure enough it was him, I pressed the button so that we could listen in on their conversation...

"I've got what you asked for. When are you coming over sweetheart." The male voice echoed, "It's finally ready huh, good. I'll start heading your way in about an hour...Lucious is back in the office today so I cant just disappear, he'll wonder where I am." Anika said in response.

No hell I wouldn't I thought to myself as we continued to listen in on the conversation...

"Fuck that nigga. I thought he was out of town for a while. Besides, I'm tired of not being able to see you and having to tiptoe around his ass." The male voice tossed back towards her. Anika took a long frustrated breath before she spoke again, "Kyle relax okay. Empire goes public in one more week and if you did what I asked you to do the right way then Lucious won't last long after that and we'll be billionaires." She told him.

The fuck is she talking about, I thought to myself. Their conversation ended shortly there after, Cookie and I stared at one another, it sounds like this bitch is trying to have me killed or some shit. Whatever her plan is we need to be sure we we're prepared for anything she tries to toss our way.

The Kitten

"Alright, since he's been gone the past couple of weeks you're gonna have to give him triple the amount than you've usually been giving him." Kyle said as we stood in the living room of his loft, "Triple the amount? Won't that kill him?" I asked, damn having him drop dead on the spot isn't the plan... "No, it will however make him extremely tired and weak. You've got to give him this entire vial full because he's gone to long without it in his system, soon the ALS symptoms are gonna stop and his doctors are gonna pick up on it. With this, his body will continue to mimick the ALS symptoms as long as we need it to." He stated matter of factly, "Kyle, I'm not sure about this. I mean I do love the man, I..." He chimed in and cut me off mid-sentence, "You love him? I thought you loved me. I thought that was why we we're doing this in the first place, you're suppose to be playing his ass so we can get this money Nika." Kyle ranted.

I tilted my head to the side then responded to him, "Baby, you know what I meant... I love him, but I'm in love with you." I told him to try and calm his nerves, this nigga here, I thought to myself...at one point I did love Kyle but that was before Lucious Lyon came into the picture...since he entered my life Kyle has never been able to compare. We dated during college, 6'6' chocolate brown features, my 'parents want us to be together, but he's just too boring for me...now since he's an OBGYN with his own practice I needed him to help me keep Lucious. He agreed to help me, but I had to make him believe that we were going to run off and be together in the end. I wont be running off with is ass anytime soon though, once he helps me fix the paperwork, blood tests, and other test for Tiffany's baby to appear like it's Lucious' then I'm going to tell my baby Lucious that he tried to violate me...knowing Lucious the way I do, Kyle wont last a day...and finally me, my Lyon, and our cub can live happily ever after. Kyle intruded upon my thoughts.

"Well if you're in love with me then what's the problem? You've been slowly slipping this shit to him to make it seem like he's this time anyway." He muttered in my direction, this is true but I've never given him so much at one time before and I'm just a little afraid of what it might do to , this could have all been avoided if he was at home to get me pregnant, but business is business so I can't really complain.

"You're right baby. I'll take care of it." I reassured him, grabbed my purse, then headed towards the door, "That's gonna completely knock him out, so call me when it's done and I'll come over to check his vitals, just to be on the safe side." Kyle shouted to my back. I nodded in his directions, slid back into my car, and coasted along towards the mansion...Lucious and the boys would be getting ready to sign all the transfer paperwork in a couple of hours but right now, I needed to figure out the best way to slip him this shit without him noticing.
