S urtain “Sur”

I was off work, and I couldn’t reach Dom.

I’d called and texted her dozens of times but got no response.

I called Lai, and it was the same thing for her.

An awful feeling filled my chest. Something wasn’t right at all.

I told Lai to head over to her place, and I’d meet her there.

I floored it in my truck on the expressway, evading the state troopers, before I exited and raced up the ramp.

I bent the corner and drove the last few minutes to her apartment complex.

When I entered the parking lot, there were two police cruisers present along with an ambulance truck.

If I wasn’t worried before, I was now. My stomach dropped to my ass.

Swiftly, I found the closest parking spot I could then hauled ass through her lobby and up to her apartment.

When I made it to her place, the door was open, and everyone tended to Dom, including Lai.

She sat next to Dom and gently caressed her back while Dom held an ice pack on her face.

Two officers compared notes, and the paramedics packed up their equipment.

I bypassed the first responders and kneeled in front of Dom.

Her eyes widened at the sight of me, and she practically leapt into my arms. I held her tightly.

My eyes flitted to Lai. She was angry. Lai’s fists were balled in her lap.

Fire burned in her eyes. Lai wanted revenge.

She was highly overprotective of me and Dom.

I knew for a fact that she’d find a way to get Dom justice.

Lai mouthed that she’d be back. She stood and walked over to the uniformed officers.

I focused back on Dom. Her soft cries filled my ears.

My heart ached for my baby. I wanted to take this pain from her.

If I could kill the son of a bitch that hurt her, I would.

Dom deserved so much better. If only I’d gone home with her.

Gently, I guided Dom back to her seat. I took Lai’s seat then fully examined her face.

I removed the ice pack from her eye. It was black, and her lip was cut.

She took one hell of a blow to her face.

“Tell me what happened, baby.”

Dom placed the ice pack back on her eye before she scooted closer to me.

“When I made it home, my front door was slightly ajar. I was scared as hell, but I had my gun. I took my time and searched my place. Nothing was out of place or removed, so I went on with my day. I showered, did my chores, then completed most of my treats for tomorrow.” Dom released a deep breath.

“I was almost done when someone threw a plastic bag over my head and tried to suffocate me. It was the scariest situation I’d ever been in.

I fought off my attacker and raced into my room.

We tussled, and he punched me in my face. I fought back and shot him.”

Softly, I wiped the tears from her eyes, making sure I didn’t cause her any more pain.

“I’m so sorry this happened to you, baby. You are one brave woman. You’re a warrior. I love the lion in you, but trust that we will get through this together. I do have one question. Why didn’t you call us or the police when you arrived home and saw your door open?”

“It wouldn’t have mattered.”

“Baby, why would you say that?”

Dom sniffled. “My attacker was hidden in one of the tote bins in my roommate’s old bedroom. He told me himself. If I didn’t think to search the bins, neither would the police, nor would you guys. I would’ve never assumed an adult male or female could fit in a large tote bin.”

I nodded my understanding. “That’s understandable, and there’s a lot of truth to your admittance, but why did you just say male or female? You didn’t see your attacker?”

“No, I didn’t. They were dressed in black from head to toe, and their face was hidden. They also used this weird device to disguise their real voice. It could’ve been a woman or man, but from how strong the person was, I assumed it was a man.”

“That shit is weird. Do you have any idea who might want to attack you?” I quizzed.

Dom nodded. “It could’ve been my old roommate, Briya, or her boyfriend, Zay.

I kicked them out a month ago for a bunch of reasons.

Briya and I were like sisters. She was my best friend.

I can’t see her hurting me, but Zay is a different story.

He was big, lazy, and a disgusting nigga with a mean side.

There were quite a few times I had to pull my gun out on him.

I surely gave the police his name. I don’t know his last name or what Zay is even short for.

Now, Briya did return my key before she left, but that doesn’t mean Zay didn’t have a key made beforehand.

I told security not to let any of them back up and remove them from my visitor’s list, but security has been known to be bought around these parts.

Briya and Zay are the only people I had a run in with.

They want to hurt me, which is so fucked up because I opened my home to them. ”

“Baby, why didn’t you tell us any of this?”

Dom sniffled. “We were just getting acquainted, and I didn’t want to dump my baggage on you guys so soon. Plus, I assumed I had handled the situation by kicking them out. I honestly didn’t see any retaliation happening.” Dom broke down crying again.

I pulled her onto my lap and cradled her tightly to my chest. My own anger boiled. I hated this for my beautiful baby. She was such a delicate and giving soul. Dom didn’t deserve this bullshit. I looked up when Dom’s door closed. All the first responders had left, and Lai walked over to us.

She leaned down and kissed the top of Dom’s head. “How’s our girl?”

“Still shaken up. How about you run her a warm bath to help her relax? I have a couple of calls I need to make, and I’ll handle dinner while I’m out here.”

“Alright, baby.” Lai kissed my lips then scooped Dom into her arms.

One thing about my wife, she was one of the strongest women I’d ever met.

Dom snuggled closer to Lai before they disappeared in the back.

I walked into Dom’s kitchen while I searched for the nearest locksmith.

There was no way I’d allow her to sleep in her place without the locks being changed.

While on the phone with the nearest locksmith company, I rummaged through her cabinets and refrigerator, putting together a meal.

By the time I was halfway through preparing the food, the locksmith arrived.

I closed Dom’s bedroom door then allowed the technician in to perform his job.

I observed him between dicing veggies and sautéing meats to make sure he was on top of his job, and he was.

Once I was done with dinner, the technician finished up his work.

I paid the bill and gave him a tip for the last minute job.

Now, I could relax a bit. However, I had one more call to make.

While I plated my ladies’ meals, I called our security company and made an appointment for them to install a video doorbell at Dom’s place.

She’d now be alerted if anyone walked past or stayed at her door too long.

That break in shit wouldn’t be happening again.

Her appointment was scheduled, and dinner was done.

I walked to Dom’s room to alert my girls dinner was ready.

When I entered, Lai’s head was between Dom’s legs.

Dom looked at me with a sexy smile and curled her finger for me to join them.

I smirked and kicked the door closed. This was my kinda party.

I took my place on the bed next to her. Dom and I shared a sloppy kiss.

Her small hand cradled the side of my face as I consumed her.

My mouth took hers hostage. I’d practically swallowed her lips and tongue because they couldn’t be visibly seen anymore.

Dom liked to be dominated. I enjoyed being in the position to do so.

I ended our kiss, licking down the base of her throat and chest until I made it to her luscious titties.

Dom’s double Ds had a hold on me. Her body was so thick and full that I couldn’t get enough of it.

I gripped her titties in each of my hands and attacked her nipples.

Dom’s back arched from her bed. She hissed and moaned from the pleasure we brought her.

Dom pumped harder against Lai’s face, inciting me to slobber over her titties more.

When she could no longer hold back, Dom came hard and fast.

Once she came down from her high, we all switched positions.

Lai rested on her back while Dom ate her pussy.

Her eyes were closed. Her teeth damn near pierced the flesh of her bottom lip as her hands gripped Dom’s head.

Dom brought Lai as much pleasure as I allowed her to.

It was hard for Dom to really go crazy when I gave her deep strokes.

My strokes made both of them weak. That was the point of my job.

The sound of Lai’s passionate cries filled the room.

It was music to my ears. Soon, she’d be cumming too.

I gripped Dom’s waist tightly. She was so damn thick.

Her skin perspired and pussy was soaked.

The way Dom’s juices slid down my leg had me gone.

It still blew my mind that I was able to pull a baddie like Dom.

On top of that, she begged me for more. My eyes rolled in the back of my head as I went deeper.

The impact from my strokes caused her body to slap against mine.

The sounds our bodies made were now my favorite tune.

The harder I drilled into her, the more pressure she added to Lai.
