SNEAK PEEK FROM "YOU SHOWED ME"

Naheema noticed Mike's jacket on the floor. Mike saw what she was looking at, but she was closer to it than he was. She ran for the jacket as Mike tried to jump across the bed and get it first. But he landed the wrong way and twisted his ankle.
As Naheema picked up the jacket, her hands shook from nervousness. She prayed that Chyna's nasty words weren't true.
All Mike could do was wince in pain and wait. He didn't think her looking in his jacket would cause any harm, because he didn't have any numbers or condoms in his pockets. But he still couldn't help but wonder why she wanted it.
After looking through all of his pockets on the outside of the jacket, Naheema went to check the inside pocket. She felt something there. She took the package out of his pocket and looked at Mike for a while before opening it.
Mike was getting nervous. He didn't remember putting anything inside that pocket. Then it hit him. That bitch Chyna. He had to find a way to get Naheema to give him the package.
Naheema unfolded the letter attached to the package and started reading it out loud.
My dearest Mike,
From the time we first met, I knew we would be lovers. I never expected our relationship to last three years without some kind of commitment. I surely didn't expect that we would be ending this way either, but that's life, right, baby? We've been through a lot of ups and downs in our relationship, but I never thought in my wildest dreams that you would make me your sideline ho for that chick.

Dating a hustler was never on Naheema’s to-do list. But after the charming yet deceptive Mike sweeps her off her feet, dating a hustler is the least of her worries. Mike’s charming sweetness toward Naheema turns sour when the abuse, cheating, and his street mentality kicks in. The life of a hustler’s woman takes its toll on Naheema physically, mentally, and emotionally, taking her from a fairy tale to a horror flick. But Naheema is learning from the best, and soon the tables turn and she holds Mike’s future in her hands. Filled with action, grief, friendship, family ties, and the ultimate betrayal, You Showed Me exhibits what it means to be tried, be tested, and triumph.

Sneak Peek: Drama With a Capital D

It was an all out brawl within seconds. Fists, fake hair and earrings were flying everywhere. Cherie was actually trying to go toe to toe with me which pissed me off even more. I slammed her up against the door and knocked the wind out of her. As soon as I saw I had an advantage, I started kicking the shit out of her. For a second I thought she was screaming then I realized it was coming from behind me. When I glanced around I realized it was Reggie. He always screamed like a little bitch. He came running because he saw one of Cherie's neighbors running up on the porch to jump in. Before sista girl could even take a swing at anyone, Reggie was there in a flash with his pepper spray. I'm trying to watch him and keep Cherie on the ground at the same time. That fool ass Reggie started spraying that can like a freakin' maniac. I left Cherie's ass lying there and got the hell out of the way. Donna followed my lead and we got the hell off that porch. Lena didn't react as quickly and Reggie's dramatic, over hyped ass sprayed her too. Everybody on that porch was screaming, choking and gagging. Reggie grabbed Lena and as they stumbled down the steps, "Go start the car! Start the damn car!" He yelled at Donna.

A Letter from a Mistress

To my lover’s wife,
This letter is long overdue! There are a few things we need to get out in the open so we both know where we stand!

You see, I've known your husband for quite some time now. We met at work. One thing led to another and since then we’ve been all over each other. However, in the beginning, I wasn't the only love of his life, there were others, but for the most part they’re out of his life. However, I’m still around. He just can't seem to let go of me. I really didn't spend much time with him when you first got married although he did spend time with the others. He’s told me that he’s even taken off with them for several weeks at a time and never left you a word. Anyway, during the last five years of your marriage we have grown much closer. We spend more and more time together and I think it is time you realize. I am not going away. You may be his wife and I am sure in his own way he loves you. He has said you are a good wife to him and have been committed to the vows you took. He appreciates that but it’s not enough for him! You see, I'm the one he needs. I'm what he craves and can't live without. I’m the one he is most passionate about and faithful too. He longs to put his hand on my brown slender body and he yearns to press his lips against me. My taste is intoxicating and I make him feel like a man. Being with me turns him into someone he normally wouldn't be. Being with me makes him lose control. With me he has no inhibitions and he'll say exactly what’s on his mind. I'm always there for him. No expectation or complaints. I'm there for his pleasure always. He'll do anything for me. He'll lie for me and sneak away just to be with me. Whether it’s in a bar or in his car we manage to be together every single night. Sometimes even in your own house! On his days off we manage to spend most of the day together. How could you not know about us before now? Every time he has been with me he comes home a different person. Can't you smell me on him after we've been together? I've drained him of his energy and when he awakes he's ready for me all over again. I hear that you have been blaming me for all of your problems with him. Well don't! He's the one to blame; not me. He comes to me, I don't go to him. He chose me and I never let him down. You're his wife but he wants me more! He'd rather be with me than spend time with you and his children. Do you know where he’s at during mealtime? How about on holidays? Or even when you're fighting? Well, he’s with me! Even when you're getting along? With me! When relatives are visiting? He's with me! Hell, he was even with me at your daughter's birthday parties! Don't you think it is a little strange that he takes hours to run simple errands that should take minutes? You almost caught us together but and all he did was laugh! He doesn’t care. Don’t you see, he doesn't talk to you after he’s been with me? You just make him feel guilty and bad about himself. Does he touch you after he has been with me? No! When he lies down beside you, in your bed, each night, he's still under my control. He's still with me!! You don't stand a chance against me, so get over it and pay the damn discover card bill already. I need to go shopping.

Sincerely Yours,
Your husband’s Mistress
