As they scrambled to dress, Slim eyed Natalie. Many moons had passed since the last time he had seen her. She used to be his li’l mama, the youngest worker in his stable of bad bitches, and he had groomed her well. Like all of the other women he oversaw, she was well versed in the language of sensuality and pleasure. She could make every man think he was the best she had ever had. There was only one who could resist her, only one who could see through her game and outperform her. That one man was her teacher, and she was his pupil. She couldn’t resist Slim. He was the only man she had ever loved, and for eight long years she had waited for the right moment to make her reemergence.
“Long time no see, baby girl,” he said as he buckled his pants.
“I’ve missed you, Slim,” she replied with a sincere smile. She lowered her eyes insecurely as she continued. “It’s been too long.”
“That means we’ve got a lot of catching up to do,” he stated. There was nothing better in the world to him than having control. Natalie had left him years ago, but still she couldn’t help but find her way back home. Like a trained dog, she had come back to him whether she wanted to or not. It was instinctive in all his bitches. He was Daddy, and the only place that could ever be home was with him.
“There’s something I need to talk to you about, Slim. Something important,” she admitted. “I have a room out in Queens. Will you come there with me?”
“Don’t need a room to do no talking,” Slim stated. “Unless you got something else in mind?”
“I got everything in mind, baby. Everything,” she insisted as she licked her lips.
Chapter Three
Natalie pulled up to the hotel with Slim following directly behind in his Cadillac Seville. Nervous energy filled her as she thought about Slim meeting Leah. She wondered how he would react. Hopeful that he would take his place as her child’s father, she stepped out of the car and hurried over to him.
“Give me a minute to straighten up inside. I won’t be long,” she promised. She grabbed his stiff dick and rubbed it gently to keep him on ice.
With a cigarette hanging from his mouth, he leaned against his car door and nodded his head. “Go ahead and handle your business,” he stated with authority. “Slim don’t fuck with a dirty bitch.”
Natalie ignored his arrogant nature and rushed into the motel room. Leah was sleeping soundly just as she had left her, and Natalie couldn’t help but smile as she thought, She’s such a good girl. She’s going to reel that man right in.
Natalie was so close to making their family complete. The man that she desperately wanted was within arm’s reach. All she had to do was close the deal.
She didn’t want to throw Slim off by bombarding him with the news of his daughter. She needed to ease him into the idea of being a father.
“Wake up, Leah. Get up, baby,” she said as she urgently shook her daughter out of her sleep.
“Hmm, Mommy, I’m tired,” Leah whined, but still opened her eyes.
“Your daddy’s outside,” Natalie whispered.
Little Leah shot up from beneath the bedspread, excitement filling her eyes. She couldn’t believe that she was about to meet the legend that she had heard so many fond stories about.
“Mommy wants you to wait in the bathroom. I’m going to come and get you when I’m ready. Until then, be quiet, okay? Don’t make any noise and don’t come out,” Natalie coached.
Leah nodded her head in agreement as she was shuffled into the bathroom.
Natalie quickly pulled one of the bedspreads from the bed and grabbed a pillow as she laid Leah in the bathtub and pulled the curtain closed. “Be a good girl for Mommy and don’t come out until I tell you to, baby,” she said as she put her finger to her lips to indicate silence. Leah nodded and then anxiously watched her mother leave the room.
Natalie welcomed Slim inside, kissing on his neck and unbuttoning his shirt simultaneously as they backed into the room. They were all over each other. Like long lost lovers, they groped and groaned until they flopped down onto the bed. Slim loved sex as much as he loved air, and Natalie was enticing him. He could smell the scent of eager pussy in the air. Her natural essence soaked her silky, neatly trimmed hairs.
“Kiss me, baby,” she whispered as she wrapped her hands around his neck while caressing the back of his head gently.
Buchanan Slim frowned as he looked down at Natalie. The more words she spoke, the more his memories of her came rushing back. He recalled exactly who she was. She was the type of woman who tried to make herself a permanent fixture in a man’s life. She was pushy and conniving—forceful. She wanted to be wifey. The gold between her legs coaxed him to stay, but he knew he had to put his cards on the table up front with Natalie. She was just a fuck, a casual escapade…nothing more or less. Kissing her lips would be too intimate of an act, and he was sure that she would read more into it than what was intended.
“Turn around,” he instructed as his hands slid up her dress.
The thought of seducing Slim into submission caused Natalie to obey his command as she spun around and stuck her round behind into the air. She braced herself as he entered her, and bit into her inner jaw as his thickness split her wide open. She tried to control herself, but before she knew it, her agenda became the last thing on her mind. Buchanan Slim put his thing down on her like only he could do.
Leah covered her ears as she sat impatiently in the bathtub. She could hear the moans of a man from the other side of the door, but instinctively she knew that what she was hearing was not meant for the ears of a child. She closed her eyes and began to hum lullabies in her head as she pressed her hands against her ears. She was trying to follow her mother’s instructions precisely. She didn’t want anything to ruin this chance of a lifetime.
As the minutes ticked away on the clock, Leah became increasingly uncomfortable, but dreams of meeting her father caused her to comply with her mother’s request for silence. She squirmed as her tiny bladder filled to its capacity. She held it in with all her might, afraid to make any noise, but eventually she couldn’t hold it any longer, and as the urine dripped down her legs, tears melted down her face. Disappointment filled her as the color yellow ruined her pretty dress. Her white stockings were stained with wet spots, and she began to cry silently.
He’s not going to want me. Mommy said he only likes the pretty girls, she thought as she began to remove her soiled clothing. She was careful not to make any noise, but when her feet got tangled in her stockings; she fell to the floor; her heart dropped in agony.
The loud crash caused the lovemaking in the other room to cease. Slim stopped mid-stroke.
“What was that? You got somebody else in here?” Thinking the worst, Slim jumped up and scrambled for his slacks as he pulled a switchblade from his pocket simultaneously. “You trying to set me up, bitch?”
“No, Slim, it’s not what you think. Just let me explain before you—”
Natalie couldn’t even get the words out of her mouth before her face was met with Slim’s right hand. Her head snapped as the sting of his slap burned her cheek. She held her hands up defensively while he charged toward the bathroom.
“Slim! Wait!” Natalie protested as she put herself between him and the bathroom door.
Wrestling with him proved futile. He overpowered her easily, flinging her like a rag doll across the room.
Enraged, Slim reached out with one hand and prepared himself to rush his opponent. He snatched open the door, ready for a fight, but the sight before him caused
