Addy's P.O.V

*beep beep beep beep beep beep*

"Ughh" I groan reaching over to turn off my alarm. Sitting up on my bed I stretch and yawn. I slip my feet into my slippers and grabbed my silk robe heading to my luxurious bathroom.

I give myself a look in the mirror and sigh at the bags up under my eyes.

"Gotta get more sleep Athena." I whisper to myself shaking my head.

I turn on the faucet and watch the water wet my toothbrush before adding toothpaste then wetting it again. I handle the rest of my hygiene before walking out in a head and body towel. When I got back to my room I heard my phone buzzing.

"What's goody." I simply answered.

"Get that ass up bitch we got shit to do."

"I'm up haze." I rolled my eyes as if she could see.

"You don't sound up, hoe ya sound sleep. Sleep is for the rich and we got bread to get!"

"Haze... do you think if I was sleep I would of answered.... no, ok."

"Aight but like the blockboys say....." I cut her off finishing her sentence.

"Early bird catches the worm."

"Ya damn right!" She dragged

"What you doing anyway? Ain't you supposed to be at the warehouse meeting with Pierre?"

"Check! His fine ass, but he can't handle all of this. Anywho if you'd stop sleeping your life away you'd know we all waiting at the trap for yo ass."

Shit

"Shit!"

"Yeah shit is right. Hurry up hoe!" She yelled before hanging up.

I quickly got dressed and made my way down the stairs of my house. I turn on the alarm before stepping out and locking the door. I hop into my G- Wagon and pull out my driveway before taking off down the street.

Palm Beach Florida, hmph where do I start. Most richest city in Florida but high on crime and violence. Makes it kinda hard to be a trap Queen so it's a must you move in silence because they absolutely do not play here in Florida. They be looking for any reason to lock yo black ass up.

Gotta watch who you kick it with and most definitely who you get money with. Niggas will tell on they're whole gang and don't think twice about it just for a come up or just cause they was jealous.

My partna locked up now because his girl ran his whole shit thinking he was fucking around on her. Shaking my head damn shame. Bitches ain't shit and niggas for sure ain't shit, haa that's why I'm single now. The last guy I dated thought he could get over on me and well we all know how shit like that go. Overall I ain't got time for a relationship, hehehe I'm to busy running shit. Chase a bag bitch not a nigga.

After the 35 minute drive I pull up to the trap putting my car in park. I hop out the wagon grabbing my things before I closed the door behind me.

"Sup A.D." one of my guards greeted and I did a head nod walking in.

"And speaking of the devil, she shows!" My lil brother Ty yelled.

"And what are you doing here, I thought you had practice?" I questioned sternly.

"Missing one practice won't hurt the star player ya digg." He said cockily popping his collar. I shake my head brushing pass him making him click his teeth.

See here's the problem with Tyrone ass. I get that I'm in the streets and be running shit and some how some way he looks up to that shit like I'm his shero, but that's the last thing I want for him. I don't want him to be like me because he can be better and will be. Everyday I walk out the house or wake up I'm thankful because a nigga didn't rundown on me. Truth be told this life has perks but it's scary. You're constantly looking over your shoulder and don't know who's your enemy.

Ty..... see ty.... that boy is talented. He's going places I was never headed. But I do worry that my past doings will backslap him and that's what I don't want. So I need him as not deep into this business as possible.

"Hello! Chica..... yo ya listening Addy!" Hazel snapped me out my thoughts.

"Hell no and don't lie." Joie chimed in rolling her eyes playfully.

"Look I zoned out for a little start over." All the girls clicked their teeth making my brother laugh.

"On my people shordy when you gon let me rundown on tae and them crew." Chase came in rolling a blunt.

"C you know I don't like all that loud shit." I reasoned.

"Who said anything about loud shit shordy. I can shank em or use a silencer. Kidnap them niggas and cut dey fingers off one by one." He explained licking the blunt. I facepalmed myself.

"When I say no loud shit I mean no noticeable shit. No wars, no shoot outs, and definitely no torture rooms." I emphasized the last part making chase shrug his shoulders.

"You gotta do something tho Addy them lil niggas wildin." Joie commented.

"They've already hit seven of the blockboys just this week." Ty said not looking up from his phone. This is probably why I keep him around tho, INSIGHT.

"Either that or get some yungins who can actually defend themselves and the product because these misfits claiming they're thugs ain't working and it's starting to make us look bad outchere!" Haze reasoned and she had a huge point.

Most of the blockboys were dudes who fell upon hard times and was hustling to provide a living not doing it for the fun of it. Then the other half was misfits just like she said, guys who was always in small trouble and hustling gave them something productive to do while getting paid.

"I'ma figure it out because their little asses ain't messing up my deal with Pierre." I stated and they all agreed.

Before anyone else could get a word in the twins Camari and Amari walked in, Late as hell that is.

"Heyyyy!" Both they loud asses said in unison.

"Here their loud asses go." C got up.

"Awww Big C don't be like that." Camari said rubbing his arm making him click his teeth. For the life of me I can't figure out why they call that boi that but I know he hates it.

"Y'all bitches ain't never on time." Joie shook her head drinking her tea.

"Girl what." Amari said boasting up.

"Aye! Not today. Y'all just came in how about catching up instead of catching attitudes." I shut all that shit down.

"Aye shordy we still hitting Miami up?" C asked.

"Yes, In fact we're gonna do a little tour on all the main cities. Tampa, Orlando, Jax, St. Petersburg, Tallahassee, and Fort Lauderdale." I said rubbing hands like birdman.

"The Seven deadly sins.... hmph I fucks with it." C nodded rolling up his second blunt.

"I'm definitely down!" Ty jumped excited.

"I don't know why because yo ass ain't going." His smile turned into a frown instantly making chase choke on his blunt and the girls laugh.

"Bruh." He said clicking his teeth.

"Ty don't start just handle shit here while I'm gone and don't slack off." He just nodded.

"So after the tour I'm gonna need a flight to New York." I explained

"You really trust Pierre??" Joie questioned.

"Do I have a choice? I reasoned.

"I just think the home base is a little childish."

"I do too but hey it's his terms. Plus it'll give me some leadway on expansion." I winked.

"You can't be serious." Joie sat up serious.

"That man will have your head. You can't just go up there and just take shit Addy." Hazel explained.

"Real g's move in silence and ain't shit I can't do." I shrug smoking my own blunt.

"I'm with the shit, let's fuck some shit up shordy." Chase said getting up and I did too.
