Guest Of Honor
The goon moved, and she saw him. Mr. Monzoon was an old, portly man no more than 5’7, sitting behind a large mahogany desk, in a red velvet wingback chair. He reminded her of a mob boss.
The room stunk of expensive cigar smoke. She saw him roll one in his mouth.
“Come in. Gino, Move. The guest of honor has finally arrived.”
“Mr. Monzoon.” He greeted him.
Mr. Monzoon stood and shook Geo's extended hand.
“And who is this doll face?” He asked as he looked Carolina up and down.
“This is Carolina,” Geo explained.
“A pleasure to meet you.” Mr. Monzoon directed his attention to her.

A Pound Of Flesh Party
“This is some Party.” “Yes. It is.” “Is everything ok?” She said as she drank champagne. “Yea.” He agreed. She smiled at him then wrapped her arms around his neck. She put her body up against his. He wished they had no clothes on then. He wrapped his arms around Carolina's small waist. It seemed right in the moment. No one seemed to notice what they were doing. Then she looked up at him and smiled. She broke their hold and took him by the hand. “There's something I want to show you. Carmella showed it to me. "C’mon,” Carolina informed hin She guided him toward the open f
A Pound Of Flesh Party *part 2
Usually, when she went to large parties like this, she felt like she was floating in a sea of people, but not tonight. His strong hand was like a grounding stone. She saw someone across the room waving. She focused her vision and realized it was Silk. She smiled and was about to wave when she remembered his reaction to her having a relationship with her. She turned to him and then pointed. Geo saw her and his father and nodded. He knew he had said some harsh things about his father's wife, but he still wanted to be hospitable. It was a party, after all. She trailed behind them as they crossed the large room. When they reached his dad and Silk, his dad hugged and congratulated him while Silk gave a slight smile and a timid wave to him. “Hi, Silk.” Carolina Greeted her. Knowing it would probably ruffle his fe
A Pound Of Flesh A Walk
They were left alone on the fringes of the dancefloor, watching others laugh, and dance. It was still a wonderful sight to see. The party she would probably never be able to forget. A waiter walked by. She grabbed some more champagne. Silk spoke. “Let’s take a walk.” She nodded her head in agreement as she took a nice sip of the cold, sweet champagne. Carolina had expected Silk to take her in the same direction she and Geo had gone earlier, but she went in the opposite direction. They walked through the large rooms and out on the lawn. The music was faint, background noise now. The air was crisp on her skin. She inhaled and took another sip of her champagne. “He is in love with you.” Silk announced. Carolina
A Pound Of Flesh She is Very Special To Me
“Oh, yea?” “Yea. You lit up on the dance floor. I didn’t even know you could dance so well. Now I feel like an asshole for always breaking your mother’s balls about her making you take all those dance lessons as a kid.” He lightly chuckled at his father’s remark. “Thanks, Pop. I like her. She is very special to me. In fact, tonight, after this sham of a party, we are leaving for a nice long vacation together.” “Vacation? Where are you going? And why wasn’t I consulted on this, son?” “Because I didn’t think I had to tell you my every move, Pop. It's a vacation, not a hostile takeover.” “I know, but son do you think taking a vacation right now is in our-your best interest?”
A Pound Of Flesh Let Her Enjoy The Party
"What the hell was that ?" His father whispered to him, referring to the bow he acted when Monzoon had given the briefcases. "I do have my pride, y'know. He doesn't have to buy me." "Son, he isn't buying you, he's buying your loyalty and your silence. It is a sign of goodwill, and you better get used to accepting large quantities of cash from people for the services we render. You are lucky Monzoon is like family. I know gangstas who would have slit your throat for less." His father was right. His behavior could have made a turn for the worst, Monzoon could have harmed him or his father. "It won't happen again, pops." He apologized as they rounded the corner in the staircase. Geo scanned the crowd and within a few
A Pound Of Flesh I Love You
He was pulled off of Lorenzo by two of Monzoon's guys. Lorenzo stood up and spit blood. Geo was still on the ground kneeling. Tired. Feeling defeated by his past and the inevitable trajectory of his life in crime. "You piece of shit !" Lorenzo pulled out a gun, took the safety off, and pulled the trigger. Geo knew his life was over. He closed his eyes when he heard the trigger click and heard a collective gasp from the crowd as the gun went off. He heard a large thud and smelled Carolina's perfume. He opened his eyes to Silk's scream and he saw her then. Carolina was lying in front of him on her stomach. A small pool of blood was slowly forming underneath her. He rolled her over gently. She moaned
A Pound Of Flesh A Cold Sweat
Carolina woke up in a cold sweat. Her heart was racing. She had had the most vivid dream. Her mother had been medically abused by Dr. Roberts. She and Russ were broken up, and she was a companion for a Crime Lord. She looked at the clock on her nightstand table. It was 2.a.m. She pulled her knees up to her chest. The dream had been so vivid. Carolina put her hand to the place where the gunshot wound had been. There was nothing there, but the sat
A Pound Of Flesh The Problem
“The operation your mother requires is not covered by her insurance provider. The total cost for the procedure she needs would be $386,795.68,” the Nurse informed Carolina, looking up from the clipboard that held her mother's billing information. It took everything in her not to yell, curse, or break down in the lobby of her mother's Doctor's Office. The amount of money the Nurse had just quoted her was gargantuan, and saying it aloud only made it seem more daunting to her. Where would she come up with that amount of money in such a short amount of time? She was a full-time student at a University forty-five minutes away. With everything that had been going on with her mother's steadily declining health, she was barely passing her classes. She had missed several in-class assignments and was having
