He took out a bag full of crack cocaine and pulled a clear pipe out of his pocket and emptied two into the pipe. He pulled out his lighter and flicked it and held the fire to the end of the pipe and inhaled the crack smoke.
He held it in until he couldn’t anymore and let it out. His head spun from the high and his eyes popped wide open. He started the car and headed for the hospital to get his wounds stitched up.
From the hospital, he drove to Roxy’s apartment in Flatbush. He got the place for her after they started fucking. He pulled up to the building and went to the door, took out his keys, and opened the door to the apartment. The stink smell hit him in the face. “Damn bitch, you don’t clean this place no more?” Black Ice yelled as he entered. Roxy didn’t answer him. Black Ice looked around the living room to see clothes and garbage all over the floor and roaches scattering around the floor. “Damn, this bitch has fallen off,” he thought. He walked to the back of the apartment looking for Roxy. He opened the bedroom door and couldn’t believe what his eyes saw. Roxy was naked on her knees with her ass up in the air. A light skin, thin man with a bald head was fucking her from the back. That wasn’t the worst part of it Roxy was sucking a brown skin, man’s dick at the same time.
The three of them were all too busy fucking that they didn’t even notice Black Ice opened the bedroom door. “Bitch, suck that dick! Yeah like that,” the brown skin ordered while his friend was fucking Roxy’s pussy from the back. “Mmmm, mmmm,”
Roxy moans were getting louder even though her mouth that was full of dick. She couldn’t get all what she was saying out.
She stopped sucking the brown skin, man’s dick and the two men switched places.
“Ya’ll going to hit me off with some more of that crack, right?” “Yes!” the brown man said as he entered inside her from the back.
Satisfied that she was going to get some more crack, she began to suck off his bald headed, light skin friend.
Black Ice had seen enough. He went back into the living room and grabbed a pillow off the couch and went into the kitchen and took a sharp butchers knife out of the drawer. He rushed right back into the bedroom. Again, not one of them heard him re-enter the bedroom. The brown skin man’s back was facing Black Ice while he was humping in and out of Roxy and the light skin, bald man had his eyes closed enjoying the deep throat Roxy was giving him. Black Ice walked quietly, but quickly, up on the brown skin guy. Black Ice grabbed the man onto the floor and pulled back his head and sliced his neck from ear to ear with the butcher knife. The man never made a sound. Blood poured out his neck as he tried to gasp for air. He grabbed his neck to try to stop the blood, but there was no use.
He fell over on top of Roxy. “Nigga, what the fuck is you doing?” Roxy asked with the light skin, man’s dick in her hand. She felt the warm liquid running down her back when the man’s weight fell on top of her.
The bald man looked up to see why Roxy stopped giving him a blowjob. When he opened his eyes he was staring right up into Black Ice’s dreadful eyes. He glanced over to see his dead friend on top of Roxy. Roxy was so high she thought the dude had fallen asleep after he came on her back.
“Ahhh, who the fuck are you?” the bald man questioned Black Ice. When he asked Roxy quickly bucked her body throwing the dead man off of her. She looked back and screamed when she saw Black Ice. The light skin man jumped up and ran for his jeans, where his gun was laid. Black Ice moved with the speed of light and punched the man in the nose sending him flying back into the bed next to Roxy. Black Ice pulled out a 3.80 special from his waist band and aimed at the man on the bed.
“No, No, please man! No!” the man begged for his life, not knowing that his plea was going to a deaf mans ear and a very cold heart. Roxy was screaming and Black Ice turned and pointed the gun at her.
“Shut the fuck up, bitch! Or a bullet will go through your head!” he yelled.
Roxy got quiet and tears ran down her face. Black Ice picked up a pillow off the bed and pointed the gun back at the bald man’s head.
“Listen man, please. What you want?
I have money and crack in my jeans pocket,” The man said.
“This isn’t about any money fool.”
Black Ice replied then looked at Roxy on the bed holding herself, crying covered in blood.
“It’s about her? Listen man. I didn’t know this was your woman. She said she would fuck me and my friend for some crack. Please, don’t kill me,” the man continued to beg.
“Shut the fuck up and lay on your stomach, now!”
“Please man!”
Black Ice smacked the man in the nose with the butt of the gun making it bleed.
“Ah, okay I’ll do it, I’ll do it. Just don’t hit me again.” The man turned around on to his stomach as his feet brushed up against his dead, friend’s body he felt the blood on his toes. Black Ice took the pillow and forced it on the back of the man’s head.
“What you doing man?” the man
cried through the pillow.
Black Ice rose the 3.80 special and stuck the barrel into the pillow and squeezed the trigger twice. The bullets ripped through the pillow and tore through the man’s head and instantly the man’s body went limp.
“Ahh, ahh, ahh!” Roxy screamed.
“Bitch, don’t scream now! You
weren’t screaming when you were getting fucked by these two fools. I’ll give you something to scream about you fucking whore!”
Black Ice took off his belt. Roxy screamed and got her naked body that was covered in blood off the bed. She tried to run for the door, but Black Ice grabbed her by her neck and threw her down on the floor.
He punched her in the eye then the jaw.
“You want to fuck niggas in the apartment I got for you. And have nigga’s dicks inside you while your four fucking months pregnant with my baby inside you!”
Black Ice yelled at Roxy while repeatedly hitting her all over the body with his belt.
“Stop, please stop. I won’t do it again. I promise. I promise,” Roxy cried.
He continued to beat her. Roxy tried to put her hands up to block the belt, but he just whipped her hands. She screamed and screamed while he proceeded to whip her and kick her all over her body. Black Ice was making sure he was not touching her little fat stomach with his baby inside her.
“You stupid, bitch. I told you I was coming over to hit you off and you couldn’t wait to get high. Nah, you had to go fuck and suck dick.”
Roxy pleaded with Black Ice to stop, but he wouldn’t. She could no longer defend herself as she was too weak and badly beat up. She just laid there on the floor as he continued to whip at her body.
Roxy blacked out and still could feel him strike at her with the belt.
Black Ice left Roxy unconscious, swelling, and bleeding body on the floor and went into the living room and picked up his cell phone. He dialed Ace’s number.
“What’s good?” Ace answered.
“I need you and Caesar to get over here and clean up a mess for me,” Black Ice demanded speaking in code.
“Where are you at?” Ace asked.
“I’m at Roxy’s place and make it fast!”
“Yeah, boss. We’ll be there in a few minutes.”
With that said, Black Ice hung up the phone. He sat on the couch and took out his pipe from his pocket and grabbed a glass jar packed with crack and poured some into the pipe and lit it up.
Chapter 4
Black Ice smoked and got high for a half an hour until her heard a knock at the door. He walked to the door with his gun in his hand and opened it.
“What up, boss?” Ace said and
walked in followed by Ceasar.
“What the fuck took you two so
long?”
“I had to find Caesar. He was on the block watching the workers.” Ace replied.
Black Ice raised his gun and pointed it at the two men.
“The next time I call you two and you don’t come fast enough I will put a bullet in your heads. Are we clear?”
“Yes, yes boss,” Ace and Caesar replied.
Ace and Caesar ran Black Ice’s drug spots. Ace was a fat, short dude with dark skin and did anything Black Ice told him to do. Caesar was a tall, slender man with short dreads in his hair and he hated when Black Ice punks him, but wasn’t foolish enough to open his mouth to Black Ice.
“Follow me,” Black Ice said.
The two men followed him to the bedroom. Once they got there, they felt as they wanted to throw up. There was blood everywhere. The two men’s dead bodies on the bed and Roxy laid naked on the floor covered in blood, bruises, and welts.
“Stop fucking looking around and stuff these two niggas into the garbage bags.”
Ace pulled out some black garbage bags. Caesar and Ace grabbed one of the man’s legs that were lying at the end of the bed. They pulled the dead body off the bed.
The blood smeared down the bed and onto the floor. They wrapped the bags around the body and took another bag and wrapped it again. They went to the head of the bed to remove the pillow off the other dead body before wrapping it up. The pillow was stuck to the man’s head with blood that started to dry to the pillow. Ace pulled it off him and Caesar grabbed his stomach at the sight he just saw. The back of the man’s head was blown off with a baseball size hole in it.
They grabbed the man’s hands and pulled him off onto the floor onto his back.
“Holy shit, ah shit!” Caesar shouted at the sight of the man’s face. His face was gone and was replaced with a big hole that you could see through. The only thing left to his face was his lips and chin.
“Shut up! Finish wrapping that mother fucker! You two are acting like you never seen a fucking dead body before!”
Black Ice scorned.
Black Ice walked over to where the two men’s clothes were laying after getting naked to fuck Roxy. He emptied their pockets taking all the money, crack, and the two guns, a 3.80 and a 22 handgun, and put it in his pockets.
Caesar and Ace were done wrapping the bodies and started throwing anything with blood on it in the bedroom in a garbage bag.
“What about her?” Caesar asked pointing at Roxy’s naked body on the floor thinking she was dead too.
“Nigga, if you touch her it will be you next being wrapped up in a garbage bag, fool,” Black Ice said looking him in his eyes meaning every word.
“Yes, I understand,” Caesar replied as he and Ace took the first body to the car.
They came back for the last one.
“Dump that shit in Coney Island Ocean,” Black Ice ordered as Ace and Caesar left.
They jumped in their car, unnoticed by the night sky. Black Ice walked back into the bedroom towards Roxy. He took out some jars of crack and some money and put it on the bed and looked at Roxy laying there on the floor not moving at all.
“I’ll be back, bitch! I know you can hear me,” he said as he walked away leaving the apartment and headed for home to Rachel.
Chapter 5
Roxy lay on the floor and didn’t dare move to avoid the pain even more. She was coherent the whole time Ace and Caesar were cleaning up the bedroom and wrapping the dead bodies. She watched with one eye open as the other was swollen shut and as big as golf ball. She saw Black Ice come back in the bedroom to leave her some crack and some money on the bed before he left the apartment. Tears were rolling down her swollen face as she started to wonder how she ended up in the mess she was in. Six months ago, she was going to college and studying to be a nurse while living with her mother. All she did was smoke a blunt with Black Ice that fucked up her life. As a result, she started steeling from her mother to get high. She went from smoking weed to straight crack. Black Ice promised that he would take care of her once he found out that she was pregnant with his baby after her mother kicked her out of her house. Black Ice let her move into one of the apartments he had. After that happened, that is when the beatings started to begin. He’d beat Roxy if she took too long in the bathroom or if she took too long answering him. He punched her in the jaw and giving her black eyes on her light brown skin and a swollen face. Unable to get up, Roxy just laid there and just cried and felt so empty inside. She knew she couldn’t continue living the way she was. She wondered how she could quit smoking crack when it kept calling her and her body would start shaking from the actual cravings for it. And even if she found the strength to ignore the cravings, Black Ice wouldn’t let her stop. She started thinking of how she could get away from him. But, she knew that he would find her and kill her if she ran away. With that thought, she just bawled and tears were streaming down her swollen face.
Chapter 6
“Push that nigga over into the water,”
Caesar said as Ace was rolling the body on the dock. They pushed the body over and into the water. Then went and grabbed the other body and pushed it off the dock and into the water. They watched to make sure that the bodies started to sink deep down into the ocean. It was like the ocean waves just opened up and took their bodies below.
“Come on, let’s get out of here before someone sees us,” Caesar said. They jumped back into the 1990 Acura Legend in a hurry to get out of there.
“Yo, that nigga is losing his damn mind!” Caesar hollered.
“Naw, Black Ice, he cool. He just gets a little crazy now and then,” Ace replied.
“Nigga, are you crazy? That fool just killed those two niggas over that crack head bitch, Roxy! He was crazy before, but now that he started smoking that crack he done lost his fucking mind!” Caesar said as they pulled up to a red light.
“Yeah, you right, but what are we supposed to do?” Ace asked.
“I think Black Ice is falling out. Look at all the weight he dropped. He went from being 230 pounds to 150 or 160 when he started smoking that shit hard up. Another thing, I’m not feeling him always pointing guns in my face. I’m tired of working for that fool. I say we take over the block.
We’re the ones who got the little niggas out there slanging the rock. And he takes most of the money and all he does is smoke that shit,” Caesar said with anger in his voice.
“Yo, are you crazy? If Black Ice even thought we were trying to cross him, it would be us dead in Coney Island Ocean,”
