Worse deal ever by Kimba sue (i love reading books .txt) 📖

mad, turned on, or just thinking?

She didn’t dare ask. She just laid there still thinking of the shit she was in. She didn’t want to believe that her best friend would do something like this to her, but she had to think of the facts before her.

Somehow, she found herself running from gang banger, drug dealers, and her friend didn’t care if she was dead or alive? She was trying to think of her next move, where she was going to go, could she hide from them? She didn’t have the answer to these questions and it was driving her crazy. If it had not been for Tony, she did not know what she would have done. The one thing she did know was she would have been dead already. With Tony at her side, she was safe; at least for now, he had skills, and was able to keep them both alive. Only an hour ago he had managed to lose the men who were chasing them. Emerald knew they would soon be on their tail again, but Tony seemed to keep them one-step ahead.

“Tony, can I ask you something?”

“Mmm yea”

“What are you going to do now? I mean you cannot just mess with these kinds of people and walk away. They will come after you and if they don’t kill you they will make you pay.”

“Sweetie, you don’t know what I am capable of. I am a good man yes, but I will hurt someone if they hurt a friend.”

He just said friend. That means he considers her his friend.

“That is why I am worried about you. You are my friend and I do not want to see something happen to you. Maybe we should split up and you should run from here.”

“I told you we are not splitting up. That is a bad idea. I will not let anyone chase me off now; I am here to protect you.”

He pulled her more to his chest and kissed the top of her head.

“Go to sleep now. We have a lot to do in the morning. We need to figure out what we are going to do from here.”

She did not have any more fight in her tonight. She needed to give her mind a break. She would deal with all this tomorrow and figure out a way to get back at Ashley and her crew. Since Ashley could jump sides so easy; so could she.

Sometime through the night, she woke with nightmares. Emerald was screaming at Blaze.

“Please stop Blaze, don’t hurt him no more. I will go with you. Please just stop. He won’t give you any more trouble. Take me! Let go now!”

She woke to Tony shaking her. He was staring her in her eyes and wiping sweat from her forehead. She didn’t know what to do, she just broke down and cried.

She was crying a lot lately and over anything. She was not usually a crier so she didn’t know why this was happening to her now. Was she going to have a nervous breakdown?

“It will all work out. I am here and will help you through this. You cannot keep going like this; you need someone in your corner for a change.” He told her while he was rocking her back and forth, running his hands through her hair.

She didn’t remember going back to sleep, but when she woke the sun was beating against the tent. Tony was wide-awake still holding her. He didn’t look like he got any sleep.

“Did you sleep?” Emerald asked.

“No! I couldn’t sleep knowing you were….” He paused. “You were more worried about me in your dream, than you were for yourself. Why?”

She didn’t know what to say. She stretched her arms above her head, and then stood. Then proceeded to move towards the entrance of the tent, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back to him.

“Why would you care more about me then yourself?”

“I don’t know! I guess, because you have helped me out so much, and you didn’t have to. Then when I am close to you; my heart goes wild, it feels like it is going to jump out of my chest. I feel like I am having hard time breathing, and I just want to make love to you and I can’t.”She covered her mouth with both her hands when she let the end of the sentence slip from her lops. She blinked rapidly and backed away from him. Emerald was embarrassed and was not thinking straight when she said it. Yet she meant every word.

He didn’t move or say anything. He was watching her. Was she going crazy? She didn’t care. She had to back track.

“I mean. I us, I think you are good looking and when I first met you, the thought crossed my mind, but I left that back at the cabin. I am more worried about us getting out alive.”

She was nervous and she knew he could tell by the way her eyes darted back and forth and her body language. He didn’t have to say anything. The way he was smirking at her, and trying not to laugh said it all.

“Emerald you don’t have to feel embarrassed about how you feel. I have felt a sexual attraction to you myself. I just know right now is not the time. That does not mean when this is all over I am just letting you walk away from me.”

He pulled her lips closer to his thumb and first finger. He kissed her with so much heat, there was no way he was lying to her. He wanted her just as bad as she wanted him. They could not do anything about it right now. However, she could at least thank Ashley for getting her the right man.

When she pulled away she bent her head down, her cheeks turned pink, and she refused to look up. She was looking at the floor of the tent. She waited a heartbeat then turned back to him and said,” so what is the plan for us?”

“I am contacting an old friend a few towns from here. I know Jimmy is on our ass, so we don’t have much time for what I am trying to do.”

“What the hell does that mean?”

He didn’t answer her at first, he was wrapping up the sleeping bags so they could head out. He looked over his shoulder and said; “We need to get in that car and move out as fast as possible. I am trying to stay one-step ahead of them. We need to still change our appearance and find a hotel we can use for an hour.”


Emerald froze. He was a little too good at this getting away shit. She knew there was more to this man then he was letting on. She just didn’t know what it was.

“How do you plan on doing this? They are right behind us. We have nothing with us, and I am tired of running. I want some answers and results now.”

He smiled at her while he bent his head down to walk out of the tent, into the bright sun light. He looked so good when the sun hit his dark hair.

“We will get this done. I promise that I know what I am doing. I have already set up a plan and then I’ll ditch the cell phones. Do you have a cell phone on you?”

She was right behind him coming out of the tent. She was trying to get some answers out of him. She was tired of these short answers; trust me. Let me do this. She needed him to tell her something. However, when he asked her if she had her cell phone on her. She knew that they could be tracking them right now, because her cell phone was in the car.

“Yes, it is in the car on the back seat.”

He walked over to the car opened the trunk and threw the tent and things inside, and then he walked around and opened the back door with so much force she thought he was going to tear the door from its hinges. He bent inside and got the cell phone. When he brought his whole body from the car and was in a standing position, he threw the phone as far as he could.

“Let’s go. We have a lot of driving to do get done today.”

Emerald didn’t say a word. She was climbing into the back seat when he told her she should just ride up front now. They knew she was with him and it was day light, so they should be okay for now.

She did as she was asked to do. She sat in the front passenger seat, snapped her seat belt into place and leaned her head on the cool glass of the car.

She took a deep breath and just stared out the window. She waited for Tony to get in and start the engine. She realized he didn’t get right in the car with her. When she turned her head to look out the back window he was on his cell phone again.

“I am so sick of him being on his cell phone, and he always has to talk to whomever in private. This is most likely about me. Asshole, “ she said to herself in the empty car.

Minutes later Tony slid into the driver side of the car snapped his seat belt and started the car. He didn’t say a word he just started driving. He turned on the radio about five minutes into the drive; it was on commercial, about some tire store going out of business.

“Why is it every time you get off the phone you got a sour look on your face? Is something else wrong I should know about?”

“No. This is not about you this time. I have a life to you know.”

He gripped the steering wheel so hard his knuckles turned white. He was breathing rather fast too.

They had to be coming to their destination soon, she was sure they had been driving for an hour. She wanted to ask him what the plan was once they got to the motel. She kept her mouth shut since he still had that sour look on his face.

Emerald decided she did not want to live like this, constantly looking over her shoulder, worrying something would happen tomorrow, in three months, in a year. It wasn’t worth it. She was going to find out what was going on.

She was staring out the window when Tony cell phone off went off. He looked over at her, she could see him from the corner of her eye, but she didn’t say anything or turn her head to look at him. She acted as if she didn’t hear anything.

“Hello, yes. Okay, yes I know that. I am doing my best. I think that I am doing fine. I will. Thank you.”

She thought that was such a weird conversation, but she didn’t care no more. All she wanted was to be done with the
