Lady Boss (The Spitfire Book 2)(20)

"Pretty sure it's supposed to, now be a good girl and take your punishment."

I cried, I begged, I pleaded, but to no avail, I was never so embarrassed in my life, how could he? I was crying real tears and plotting his death.

What reason was I going to give Pia for killing her son?

He rubbed my sore behind when he was done, all the while laying down the law, all I heard was a lot of you can't do this, don't do that, I wasn't listening, I was plotting my own revenge.





Prince of the City





She was sniffling and sulking when I finally let her up, my hand hurt so I know her ass must be on fire, that's what she got for disobeying me and going off to do shit on her own.

I hugged her to me and cuddled, she was like a little kitten curled up on my chest as I laid back on the bed, bringing her with me.

"Mouth....."

"Why do you always call me that, you never call me anything sweet.....?”

"That's not true; I call you sweet things all the time."

"No you don't, you call me Mouth or you're always lecturing me about something, you never say anything nice to me, it's always Mouth don't do this or Mouth don't do that."

I rolled us over so I could look at her.

"Baby that's just not true, I always call you by endearments don't I?" I thought I did, was she right, shit now she had me questioning myself.

I brushed the hair back from her face and dried her tears. How was it possible to feel so much for someone, someone you hardly knew, but couldn't wait to get to know, because I just know in my gut that life with her will be perfect, no matter what.

I know that the more I get to know her the more in love with her I'll be, her strength fucking scares me. She thinks like a fucking general leading his troops like.....me. Fuck.

"Baby do you understand why I don't want you involved in this shit, why you can't be, this is not a place for you."

"Shane I'm not a gangster okay, this was personal, it's not like I'm gonna go around the city shooting people and shit, or pulling off heists, though on a side note I think the girls and I would make an awesome team.......yeah maybe we should organize......"

"Fuck me, no, don't even joke about that, could you just act like a girl for once, I don't want my wife acting like a dude, she has to be feminine."

If she wanted to give me ulcers she was well on the way, the thought of them hatching some plan to do some stupid shit was enough to turn every hair on my head grey, I know she was only kidding though, at least I hope she was.

I was about to say something to her when her fist connected with my eye.

"Ow, fuck, Mouth....come back here." She'd made a run for it. My fucking eye was throbbing but that didn't stop me from running after her. Would it be sick to admit that I'm proud of my woman? She's got balls of fucking steel, my perfect match, that didn't mean I wanted her playing Bonnie to my Clyde, I just can't do that shit, her ass will stay home and that's that.

"I see spankings don't work, next time I'm getting the belt for your ass, where are you?"I found her in the kitchen rummaging through the freezer; she threw a bag of veggies at me.

"Here, put that on your eye, at least no one can see what you did to me." She laughed like this shit was funny.

"Were you ever tested?"

She cocked her head at me, “For what?"

For what? Fucking nut job.

I put the cold bag against my face for some relief, I don't think I'd been clocked in the face since I was a teen or some shit,what the hell did I get myself into.

"Why'd you run out the room, I wasn't done with you yet?"

"You come anywhere near my ass again and I'll shoot you, as for your feminine wife tell that bitch I say run for the hills cause you're stuck in the dark ages."

"It doesn't matter what you say, what happened last night will never be repeated, you're done with this shit, I'm serious Arianna, no more."

She rolled her eyes and looked through the fridge coming out with an apple.

"You want one?"

"For breakfast?"

"I'm not feeding you, you spanked me, and now you want me to feed you, I'll go all Delores Claiborne on your ass."

"Who?" What the fuck?

"There's a mobster with that name, what kinda fucked up shit is that?"

"Never mind clueless, it's a movie, one of these days we'll watch it together."

"I'm not watching any chick flicks that shit is out."

"You want me to hang around here you'll watch what I watch and you'll like it mister."

She was mighty feisty for someone who just got her ass beat, which meant it didn't do shit. Damn. She'd be back on the streets getting into shit as soon as my back was turned.

"You got anymore personal vendettas I should know about Mouth?"
