I appreciate the reads for this. Y'all are the best!!

As Joe got in the car and pulled out of the garage and proceeded to drive off, he began to feel guilty and slightly embarrassed about what had just transpired at home. As he made the half hour drive to the office, he began to reflect....

Joe's POV
What a shitty way to start the day. It started out good, my sweet baby girl made me a wonderful breakfast, and she showed me, as she does every day, how much she loves me. Then I go upstairs with a smile on my face to get ready to tackle the day and when I come back down, this little sawed off runt of a next door neighbor is in my house trying to spit game to my woman. The idea that some asshole was flirting with my wife in my own house made my fucking blood boil and made me see red. I felt disrespected as a husband and more so as a man. And on top of that, the little runt had the nerve to tell my wife to be careful around me and that I'm crazy? Yeah aight, his ass ain't seen fucking crazy, I wrote the book on crazy. But Shantelle knows she doesn't have to be afraid of me.. I love that woman with everything in my soul and wouldn't harm a hair on her pretty little head. I admit I do have issues with anger, jealousy and possessiveness, but I am receiving treatment for it. Shantelle doesn't know that I see a counselor and am taking medication for it. Well, actually the truth is, I haven't seen my counselor in some time and I stopped taking my anti-depression and anti-anxiety medications because since I fell in love and got married, I haven't had the need for them. But today I was triggered, so I think I'm gonna take them and then make an appointment to see my psychiatrist. Because the last thing I wanna do is frighten my baby into leaving me. But I'm not gonna let her leave me regardless....as I told her when we first married, if I can't have her...nobody can have her. I mean that from the very bottom of my heart.

As I pull into the parking garage of the office building, I turn off the engine and look at myself in the rear view mirror....

"Joe you got to get a grip on yourself." I say.

I then get on the phone and make my psychiatrist appointment for next week. After that, I call Shantelle.....

"Hello?" She answers on the second ring.

"H-hey baby." I say, sounding sheepish as hell, a far different attitude from an hour ago.

"Hey baby." She responds, her voice still very sweet, which makes me feel even worse because she had every right to cuss my ass out.

"Listen, I'm sorry for overreacting this morning. You were right, it was totally unnecessary and I'm not gonna sit here and make excuses for my behavior. I just want you to forgive me." I say.

"It's ok baby, I forgive you, I was just a little surprised because I had never seen that side of you before." She says.

"I-I know baby and believe me, it killed me to have you see me like that. It was just the idea of another man coming on to you, just sent me somewhere else." I explain.

"But you know I love you right and would never do anything to hurt or disrespect you right?" She says.

"Yeah baby I know." I say.

"And don't you ever forget it Joseph Anoa'i." She says in her sweet but teasing voice. "Since you spoiled the surprise, I'm still gonna make lasagna and your favorite German chocolate cake, but that's not the only dessert you're gonna get....cake isn't the only thing you're gonna eat."

Just then my pants started to feel uncomfortable as my manhood started to grow...

"Girl...don't you start no shit! I'll reschedule this meeting, turn this car around and come back home." I say, sounding thirsty as fuck.

"It's okay...just go ahead to your meeting, everything will be good when you get home. Besides I'm gonna relax when I'm done with my housework and cooking and get my feet wet in the hot tub. Because I know when you get home you'll wanna get something wet too." She laughs, when I let out a groan at that statement.

"I'm warning you woman...knock it off!" I growl at her.

"I love you Joe....I'll see you at home." She says, disconnecting the call.

As I head into the building, I'm greeted by my cousins and employees Jonathan and Joshua....

"What up Big Uce?" Jonathan says, dapping me up.

"Why you cheesing so hard uce?" Joshua asks grinning. "You must've got some before you came to work."

"Nah that's later." I say. "But I almost had to smash a muthafucka for talking slick to Shantelle."

"What?! Are you serious Uce?" Jonathan said.

"What happened?" Joshua asked.

I explained to them how Nic came over to the house and was low key flirting with Shantelle, under the guise of bringing her his wife's lasagna recipe and when I checked his ass, he denied it and then he told her to beware of me because I was crazy.

"Oh that's fucked up Uce!" Jonathan said, shaking his head. "I wish a muthafucka would come to my crib tryin' to dirty mack to Trin...he'd get his ass beat!"

"For real". Joshua agreed. "Do you want us to jump his ass?!"

"Nah...just leave it. I think I kinda overreacted anyway, it's good. But I appreciate y'all." I say.

"It's all good, anything you need, just say the word Uce. We don't mind getting our hands dirty." Jonathan says.

"I know", I say, laughing. "So are the clients here yet?"

"Yeah yeah yeah." Jonathan said. "They waiting in the conference room."

When I got to the conference room, the two investors Shane McMahon and his sister Stephanie were there waiting for me....

"Shane...Stephanie, my apologies for being late. So good to see you again." I say, shaking their hands.

"Same here Joe" Shane said, smiling.

"So we understand you've got some ideas regarding the high rise that we want to build?" Stephanie inquired.

"As a matter of fact I do". I say

I then showed them the designs for the high rise and how it will have 75 apartments, along with office and retail space. The project would take 6-9 months to build at a price tag of $85 million. It would be my biggest project to date. After Shane, Stephanie and I go over all the details, they appear to be very pleased and we sign the contract....

"Well, we are very pleased and are excited to be working with you on this endeavor." Shane says, as he and Stephanie are leaving.

"Same here, I will work hard to make sure that you're pleased with this development." I say.

"We know, you're reputation proceeds you. Have a good afternoon." Stephanie chimed in.

After the McMahons left, I was ecstatic. This project would allow me to make a net profit of $50 million, which would increase my net worth even more. This project acquisition has me in such a great mood, that I couldn't wait to get home to my sweet little wife and share the news.

I'm sitting in my office smiling so hard, my face is hurting.....

"Damn Big Uce, you still cheesing! How did the meeting go?" Jonathan asks when he comes into my office.

"I got the contract!" I say.

"Oh that's what's up!" Joshua chimed in. "So you gonna tell Shantelle the good news?"

"Yep, I'm heading home right now." I say, as I dap my cousins up. "I'll holla at y'all later."

"Aight Big Uce, see ya later." They say.

As I'm driving home, I'm thinking about what happened today. Although the day started shitty and was initially in a bad mood, the acquisition of this contract improved my mood 100%. So now that will increase my worth even more—making me an even wealthier man. I can't wait to go home and share the great news with the woman I love more than life itself.

Back at Home

As Jasmine was doing her housework, she began to reflect about the events of this morning....

Jasmine's POV
I swear if I live to be 100 years old, I don't think I'll ever truly understand what happened this morning. I mean, it was just like a typical day, I get up and make Joe's breakfast, then proceeded to go about my business. When Nic brings me Angelina's recipe, Joe jumps to conclusions, goes ballistic and then accuses Nic unfairly of trying to sleep with me. Honestly, I'd never been so embarrassed in my entire life. First, Nic is old enough to be my father. Second, I'm deeply in love with Joe, he's my husband and I would never do anything to hurt or disrespect him. I must say I'm truly shocked and a little disappointed that he would behave that way. I pride myself on being an obedient, loving and submissive wife and the last thing I want to do is anger my husband. He is the head of our home and I acknowledge that and will always acknowledge it.

Meanwhile.....

As Joe was driving home, all he could think about his new contract. But more importantly, he was thinking of his beautiful and sweet loving wife, and how she meant the world to him. When he pulled into his driveway, he saw Nic in front of his house trimming his rosebushes. It was at that moment, Joe decided that he would swallow his pride and apologize for his behavior this morning.....

"Hey...uh Nic, can I talk to you for a second?" Joe said, as he got out of his car.

"Uh...yeah sure." Nic replied, as he eyed Joe warily.

"Listen, I just wanted to apologize for my behavior this morning. I was out of line and it wasn't necessary." Joe replied.

Nic stared at Joe for a few seconds before he responded.....

"Aw forget about it. I think I understand. The two of yous just got married...you're crazy about each other...I get it. When Angelina and I got married 35 years ago, I was insanely jealous." Nic admitted.

"You were?" Joe said, surprised at the older man's confession.

"Oh yeah, if someone so much as smiled at Angelina, I went fucking nuts. I mean it got so bad that when she was pregnant with our first child, she moved back home with her parents and was planning to divorce me." Nic laughed.

"Are you serious?" Joe asked stunned.

"I swear on my grandmothers grave." Nic said, raising his right hand and placing his left hand on his chest.

"Well....what made her come back home?" Joe asked, his curiosity increasing.

"I went to her parents house begging, pleading and crying on my hands and knees for her not to leave me." Nic admitted. "I believe that me humbling myself along with her parents telling her that a Catholic woman's place is with her husband and that she had a responsibility to hold the family together,  is what saved our marriage. I know it taught me a lesson and knock on wood we've been happily married ever since."

Joe was speechless and at a loss of words, he wasn't gonna lose his wife under any circumstances. Somebody would die before that would happen.

"So, if you'll allow me...let me offer you a piece of advice,  from a old man to a young one. Try to relax and not be such a fuckin' hot head. Because if you don't, eventually she'll either cheat on you or leave you. Hell....she might do both, so take it easy." Nic advised.

"Thanks a lot Nic and again I apologize for earlier." Joe said, before going in the house.

"Hey it's forgotten, just remember what I said."

As Joe stepped into the house, the smell of lasagna and German chocolate cake permeated his nose....

"Big Daddy's home, my sweet baby girl". Joe's baritone voice rang out, causing Shantelle to shiver with anticipation. Her husband's deep and sexy voice always managed to make her weak in the knees.

"Hey baby!! How was your day?" Shantelle said to her husband, as she rushed into his open arms, kissing him passionately.

"Oh baby, it was wonderful...I managed to land a multi-million dollar contract." Joe said excitedly.

"Daddy, I'm so proud of you! I knew you could do it. Here come and sit down, dinner is all ready and waiting for you and I made your favorite German cake for dessert." Shantelle said, leading Joe by the hand to the dining room which was all set.

Joe's eyes widened at what he saw. He couldn't believe the feast before him as he sat down at the table.

As they ate dinner, Joe shared the details of the contract and what it meant for the future. Shantelle was so excited to hear about her husband's new found success that she couldn't stop smiling as he gave her all the details.

After dinner, Shantelle cleared the table and then went to the kitchen to put the dishes in the dishwasher, as she bent over to load the dishwasher, she felt her husband pressed firmly against her, groping her ample bottom.

"Hey baby, did you want some more cake or lasagna? She asked.

"Yeah I want some more cake...but I want some of YOUR cake and cookie." Joe said as he rutted against her, his voice dripping with lust and possessiveness, pressing his erection forcefully against her.

"Whatever big daddy wants...he gets." She said, as Joe spun her around, hoisted her over one shoulder and carried her upstairs to their bedroom.

Well it looks like Joe is gonna be getting a bag!
What y'all think Joe is gonna do to Shantelle in the bedroom?
