TAINTED LOVE (PART 1) by Kiera Thomas (the reading list book .TXT) 📕

His cockiness made shivers go down her spine .

“Well, I don't do first name bases with my Employees. So Mr. Johnson it is. Your Resume is Good, I must admit but I don't need anybody I want them" she stated handing his papers back to him

" Well then Ms.Morgan, I want you and You want me" Elijah spoke in a Sensual Tone .

Laila was turned on by his smart mouth and batted her eyes. She hired his ass and called it a day

"I'm telling you now. 1 fuck up and your gone.. I" before she could continue He put his hand up and spoke with Sincerity

"I'm a grown Ass man, I don't need a Warning. I said what I had to say. You either take my word or fire me now"

Laila nodded in agreement and as he walked out she threw her hands above her head and said

"Thank you God" This man was too good to be true for sure!

Tasha

"So let me get this straight Eb.. You want me to do what? Girl you know I have to Work . What time?" Tasha said in between popping the bubble gum in her mouth.

Ebony explained it once more, how she wanted Tasha to ride with her to follow Charles to wherever he was going tonight and then help her beat "Regina's" ass

"come on T, please I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important . I'm tired of this mother fucker!" Ebony pleaded

" Igh! Later later on , Im busy until 11 "

"That's perfect! Thanks Sis"

They hung up and Tasha went back to work . It was Gentlemen’s night at the Club she stripped at , which meant Extra money . All the girls would be trying to dress to impress beating each others asses for every dollar thrown . Tonight was Tasha's game night , she made the most money always! She Lotioned her body up with some Vicky Secret Glittery strawberry scented Shit slipped into her see through baby doll Nighty that barely passed her ass and nothing else , her Burgundy hair wand curled down to the very end her makeup on point , Laila always taught her how to make herself look Glamorous .

She was due to go up next as she stood up in her vanity mirror and starred at herself

"I wish I could stop this shit" she said to herself the way she did every night.

But even she knew that wasn't possible .. She was 24 with no college degree like Laala or a man who could provide for her like Ebony. She had to get money 1 way or another and She wasn't going to go asking for sympathy checks from her father or mother either.

Tasha sucked it up and went out on stage, Men instantly Stood up and went wild

"Coming to you next is Cream, She's known to live up to her name and work the pole like no other" The announcer spoke up the excitement

Tasha Bounced her Ass slowly to the beginning of Juveniles Back that ass up . She twearked her ass and grip the poke with two hands before taking off. Tasha was a pro so just slidding up and down the pole was beneath her . At the top she put both feet on the pole still holding on And began vibrating her ass cheeks, she was feeling her self . The men through hundreds of dollars down below , She slid down fast into a split then did what look like backflips on the pole before coming off and doing a bunch of ass shaking on stage. She bent over and bounced her Right ass cheek at the men and their eyes popped their heads. The music slowed and Tasha Collected all her money before going backstage .

It was time for personals , where the girls go out on the floor and get as many private dances they could . Tasha hated those because the men would ask for too much without tryna pay and she wasn't up for not getting paid.

As she sat at her Vanity counting her money She spotted Nicole, the Prettiest stripper besides herself. Nicole was 5'5 a little thang just a tad bit shorter than Tasha with a Fat ass and some pretty titties to match. Her low cut didn't mean shit because she was A gorgeous exotic looking bitch same color as amber Rose. For some reason Tasha had been starring at her extra hard these days, coming to the conclusion it was a simple girl crush . Nicole sat on Tasha's Station desk and talk to the rest of the girls . Tasha pretended not to give a damn but in the inside she was damn near about to bust.

When the que for the girls to come out went off the girls scattered like roaches . Tasha put her money in her desk draw and locked it before getting up when she noticed Nicole still standing there .

"Oh hey nicki" Tasha broke the silence

Nicole got up and whispered in her ear

"You can pretend you wasn't starring if you want"

Tasha laughed "girl bye, I wasn't looking at you" she played trying to brush it off

She couldn't let business mix with pleasure and let a crush fuck up her money. She walked out to join the rest of the girls

EBONY

Ebony sent The boys over to Mama Char's before going to pick up Tasha. She drove and bopped her head to the music when she pulled up to Tasha's one bed room apartment .

" Wassup " Tasha spoke hoping into the car . She was tired but already told Ebony she'd ride with her .

" Hey bitch, igh look we gon drive to Reggie's and see wtf is up "

Tasha Nodded . She couldn't help but think of Nicole and how sexy her tone was in her ear earlier . Did She know Tasha had a thing for her ? Or was she just fucking around? Tasha knew 1 thing for sure, she wanted Nicole .

Both Sisters drove to Reggie's in Queens, where they found out Charles wasnt there. it was almost 2 am and Ebony was starting to loose hope when Tasha spotted him at a red light getting in the Car with some Tall Woman .

"There that bitch go right there!" Ebony yelled loud enough for only Tasha to hear .

Both Charles and this Woman got into a car

"Follow them, but keep your cool" Tasha instructed ..

Ebony hit every turn they did , not missing a beat but still cars behind .

The Blue Toyota stopped in front of a house . Charles and the Woman began to Talk, minutes later They started to kiss and Ebony watched in tears . Tasha insured her that they were going to Get Charles ass soon enough just not now and the two drove back to the house in silence with all the proof Ebony needed to leave Charles cheating ass

LAILA

Laila had been arguing with Mikey for too damn long but meanwhile at Her Job, Elijah was making up for Mikey's bullshit throughout May and straight into June He did everything without being Told and didn't hit on Laila not once .

"That's my name, don't wear it out" she spat back

"I'm not going to respond to that smart mouth . You hungry ?"

"Excuse me? My mouth is not smart & I could eat but if that's your way of asking me out forget it" she twisted her neck with each word

Elijah wanted Laila in his fingertips to touch and feel on the dangerous curves she had but if it's one thing he isn't about is Drama. Yeah Laila was a Beautiful Sucessful Fly Woman , but he also noticed her Arguing with a man from line 1 from time to time and wasn't up for the challenge .

“Never mind then" He said stepping out of the Elevator and existing the building.

"Damn La, your smart mouth just fucked up what could have been some good dick" Laila thought to herself

She wasn't beat for chasing after a nigga but this Man was something else . She shuffled to the door and called out

"We on first name Basis now? Ms. I don't call my Employees by their first name"

" Look I'm sorry for being so snappy, I've been stressed lately and.. I can eat .. I mean I am hungry"

Elijah smiled at her effort

"To late. Lost my appetite" he looked at her from head to toe before getting in his car and driving off

"That motherfucca! " Laila cursed herself out the whole way home feeling stupid for apologizing in the first place
