There's Levels To My Thug (5 page)

Dragons’ parents took the girls back with them and Dragon and I hopped back in my car. I dosed off on our ride back once the car stop moving I immediately jumped up.

“Dragon, Babe where are we?”

I asked him while waiting for my vision to clear up a little. We must have been driving for hours because it damn sure felt like it. Dragon opened the passenger door and held his hand out for me. As I stepped one foot out the car door, Dragon looked me in my eyes.

“Baby I want you to know how proud of you I am. So tonight Savannah it’s all about you and no one else.”

Dragon snapped his fingers and the 40/40 club lit up and people started shouting congratulations, streamers and balloons started to fall. I couldn’t have found a better man.

“Dragon when did you find time to do all this?”

I asked him while still trying to catch my breath.

“Babe your night is just getting started,”

Dragon said with a smile.

“Baby through all things I love you and I’ll always have your back.”

I said while leaning in and kissing him, I kept squeezing his hand and smiling.

Dragon had already out done himself and all I kept thinking was what’s next. Knowing him, it could be something at any given minute. The more I looked around, the more family members I saw ones that I haven’t seen in years and they were all here just for me. Here I am with a six-figure salary right out of college with two beautiful girls and a man who would do anything for me, coming from having damn near nothing growing up. The evening was everything it was well put together Dragon out did himself. And when I thought he couldn’t top this extravagant party all of sudden the DJ stopped the music.

“Calling Savannah to the Stage please, Calling Savannah to the stage.”

A woman strange voice said over the microphone.

As I made my way over to the stage stairway, Tamar Braxton started to sing my favorite song “If I don’t have you” everybody started to scream when the spotlight was put on Tamar. I almost lost my mind Dragon met me at the bottom of the stairway to lead me up to the stage.

“Aww, Babe! Seriously I love you!!”

I said while kissing him.

“I would give you the world if I could Savannah Renee’,”

Dragon said with a smile.

He began to dance me across the stage over to Tamar, Diddy bopping and all.  When she finished, she handed Dragon the microphone.

“Savannah you and I have been riding strong for me. You’ve carried not one but two of my babies at one damn time. You feel me. And we’re still rocking.”

Dragon said to me as he spun me around on the stage. Once fully turned Dragon was down on one knee. Everyone started screaming all I could see was flashes from everyone snapping pictures.

“Savannah all I want to know is. Will you continue rocking with me and spend the rest of your life with our Princesses and me? Could you see yourself spending our days getting old together?”

Dragon said with a quiver in his voice and tears running down his cheeks.

“Yes Baby I will and I do I’m ya rider for life,”

I answered with the biggest smile on my face. Dragon stood up picking my thick ass up and kissed me. Our families went ballistic. It was time for us to move on up. We finished up the evening celebrating with everyone as I looked around at everyone gleaming I finally had everything I ever wanted.

*Chapter Six*

Dragon

    I can’t believe its a couple weeks and it’s almost graduation. My girls are walking now and Savannah had been filling out mad applications at different marketing firms in Philadelphia. I finally had cleared all ends up here in N.Y. so it was time. Before my graduation, I had already started on building my brand. Rico helped me get two stores up and running. I named each one after my women. Savannah World carried all my latest fashions for a woman, and Faith & Hope’s Treasure Island was my children’s store.

    It was about time I started thinking about my family and our future. I had my stores going strong here in N.Y. I had my girls and my Queen to my right and my left at all times. It was time we move on up like the Jefferson’s.  It’s been almost 3 months since Savannah graduated and she’d been promoted twice already.

Savannah received a phone call from Domus Inc. in Philadelphia, PA. Her portfolio spoke for itself and my lady was receiving phone calls left and right. I planned for us to take a trip to Philly for the week. She had an interview setup with Domus, Inc Advertising Agency.

    We took a drive to Philadelphia a couple days early to look at some homes over in the Chestnut Hill section of Philly. I pulled up in front of this huge home that sat up on a hill. You might as well just call this crib a Mansion. Savannah’s eyes lit up and she started stuttering and squeezing my hand.

“Oh, Ah Babe is you kidding me? I love it already.”

Savannah said to me as we pulled into the driveway.

As soon as we walked in Savannah turned to our Realtor Olivia saying.

   “Hey, Olivia can we start upstairs and work our way downstairs. Like in the Master Suite first.”

Savannah said while giving Olivia a little chuckle.

   Olivia laughed while answering Savannah at the same time.

“Sure Savannah we can start upstairs. I have a couple of treats up there for you and the girls. So let’s start here in the Master.”

The Master Bath had a Jacuzzi with a separate shower, also, in the Master Suite, there was two walk in closets his and hers as Olivia walked around the Master Suite showing us the beautiful details of this lavished home. The bedrooms that we used for the girls had adjoining doors we figured it was no need to tear a wall down because they would be older soon and would want their own space. Each room had a walk in closet as well as bay windows with attached window seats. Faith & Hope had an adjoining bathroom with double sinks kind a remind me of the rooms on the TV show “Sister Sister” back in the day.

There were two other bedrooms on the upper level, and another guest bedroom a guest bath on the lower level along with a finished basement with an attached Studio. The kitchen was amazing it had a center island with sink and dishwasher, there was a laundry room down the hall from the kitchen and a family room. Faith and Hope had their own playroom on the lower level. There was an In-law Suite for Desiree since she would be moving with us also. After doing the whole walk through I looked over at Savannah and a sked her if this was it. She quickly responded, “Man what you waiting for?” We signed on the dotted line now all we had to do was wait to see if we’re approved.

     I thought it would be a good idea to get a feel of Philly since this would be our hometown soon. Savannah had a couple of interviews set up at the beginning of the week so I just grabbed us a suite at the Courtyard Marriot Philadelphia Downtown. Desiree is due to meet us at the hotel around 11 am. I set up some showings for some retail spaces for that afternoon at 2. I wanted to take Savannah along with me too for her input. With little sis coming down it made it easier for Savannah and I to do our running around. Desiree made it there just in time for us to give her kisses and walk right out the door.

    Savannah and I waited outside of the hotel for the valet to bring our car around. We laughed at how some of the Philadelphians dressed. She made a comment saying I would have no problems selling any of my clothing down here. Our car pulled up just in time.

   I had an appointment at 2 pm downtown on Chestnut St to look at a retail space there. This building could pay for itself plus some if we go about it the right way. I know we’ll make a profit. After Savannah saw the area and the crowd she was stoked before walking into the building. On the first floor, there was a crazy retail space. Above the store, there were 6 apartments that we could renovate and rent out.

  After seeing all six retail spots Savannah and I decided on three. Just off one of the buildings after putting our numbers together, we found that it would not only take care of the rent for that building but also on the other two as well. After chopping it up with my Babe, I decided to call up Rico to see what my ole head thought.

    “Ayo Rico! My man what’s up wit ya?”

    I laughed fucking with him.

    “Nothing much young blood, what’s going on with you?”

   Rico responded.

    “Hey um, do you have a minute? I’m out here down in Philly looking at some retail spots feel me? I mean I’m looking at one, the first floor is the commercial space and that’s about a good 1300 sq ft. but here’s the money maker for it, there’s 6 big ass apartments.”

By the time, I finished chopping it up with my brother Rico. We talked about every space that Savannah and I saw. Rico already knowing the city of Brotherly love he told me if I was going to do it then do it right. Taking Rico’s advice instead of Savannah and I signing off on three we settled for the retail spot with the six apartments. Understanding the term “never put all ya eggs in one basket.”

    I drove over to Del Frisco’s Steakhouse on Chestnut St. I figured we could grab a bite to eat and talk about the City of Brotherly love. The food and service were outstanding. I even tipped the waitress $40 and told her we’ll be back soon.

Things were looking up for us. Once Savannah snags one of these high paying ass jobs, we will be living in Philly in no time. Not planning to stay out all night with my Babe, I needed my Queen to get her beauty rest. We finished eating so we could spend some time with the girls. Moreover, giving Desiree the rest of the evening off to give us a little family time until Savannah called it a night.

*Chapter Seven*

Savannah

After that long night and walking thru all those darn retail spaces with Dragon in some damn six inch heels was killing a sister's feet.  Everything was fine when Dragon and I put the girls to bed last night. After wrapping my hair and picking three different outfits to choose from, for my interview. I could smell the aroma of Bath &Body Works coming from the bathroom. I could hear Dragon singing “Neighbors know my name” by Trey Songz. I knew I was in for a treat tonight. Anytime Dragon gets to singing I know my toes are going to be curling. Just as I stepped out of my stilettos, Dragon ran up behind me. Wrapping his hands around my waist grinding on my ass within seconds my clit started to throb. I felt the tip of his tongue on my ear lobe just as he whispered in my ear.

    “Come in to my world Miss Savannah. Let me make this a night you’ll remember. Just follow me.”

    Dragon said as he walked me into the suite bathroom.

    I couldn’t believe my eyes. The Jacuzzi was filled with bubbles and Rose petals. Next to the Jacuzzi there was a tray with chocolate covered cherries and a bottle of Dom Perignon Rose sitting in a bucket of ice. The thoughts of Dragon tasting me started running thru my mind. I quickly disrobed and stepped up into the Jacuzzi. Dragon followed behind me. In seconds, his hands were caressing my thighs. His tongue hit every part of my body. I was in tuned until he hit my G-spot. I lost all control of my body when his tongue hit my clit. The deeper his tongue went into my pussy getting a taste of all my juices. The more I quivered.

I woke up the next morning extra nervous. My interview with Domus, Inc was scheduled for 10:45 am. My thoughts were all over the place. I really couldn’t sleep a wink last night, besides me tossing and turning and thinking of the worst possible outcome. My body was weak from Dragon and my activities last night but needed to push thru the pain. I walked into the bathroom and turned on the jets in the shower. After taking almost an hour shower, my body was somewhat back to normal. I pulled out my all black, red bottoms to wear with my Pinstripe pencil skirt suit. When I stepped into the sitting area of the hotel suite, Dragon started to whistle.

    “If they don’t hire you babe I will.”

    Dragon said to me with a smile.

    “We’re together for life baby. You’ll never have to worry about me ever stepping away from our family.”

    I said to him as I grabbed my portfolio kissing him and our girls before leaving out.

    Not too sure, of how far the walk was I left a half hour early. As I walked from the rear hotel entrance, a matte Black Dodge Durango almost hit me as I crossed the street. I continued crossing the street while checking my coffee.  After saying a few choice cuss words to the driver in the Durango, I really wasn’t in the mood to let anything or anyone spoil my day. I wanted to walk into Domus, Inc Advertising Agency with an, I already got the job attitude.  “Girl on Fire” by Alicia Keys and Nicki Minaj came on my iPod. I turned up my headset on full blast once I made the left onto S Penn jamming bobbing my head and all. Needless to say, a sister was feeling herself. I had everything I needed in my life. As I was walking towards Ave of The Arts, listening to Nicki Minaj “Moment on life” I could see the same matte Black Dodge Durango was coming back towards me. Whoever was driving was bobbing and weaving in and out of traffic. I quickly jumped on my cell to call my babe up to tell him what was going on.

“Hey babe, on my way out the hotel when I crossed the street. This Dodge Durango almost smashed right into me. Now the same damn truck is bobbing and weaving in and out of traffic coming towards me. And I’m starting to think this is not a coincidence.”
