    Tisha worked the go-go cage like the dirty whore that she was. At least that’s what her husband told her. He was rarely ever around these days. He’d stop by the apartment when he needed a cookie. Darrin joked often how many hands must have been in her honey jar but it never stopped him from sampling the goods. Steve was a regular customer of hers. He was polite and honest and tipped well. Repeatedly he asked to see her outside of the club but she refused every time. Eventually, he wore her down and she agreed to a coffee.
    Tisha never thought she could fall for another bear but Steve was a breathe of fresh air. She couldn’t help but be in love. Steve wasn’t perfect but he was 100 times better than Darrin on his best day. She knew it was going to end soon. She knew that Darrin would eventually crash into her life again looking for what he claimed was his to take. But Tisha willingly gave it to another man. A man who never thought of taking it. He was gentle and kind and she believed him when he said I love you to her.
    And crash, Darrin did. He bust through the door, screaming and hollering. Someone at the club must have told on Tisha when Darrin came looking for her. Steve and Darrin fought until they were bloody. Curses flew as fast as fists. Steve ran out of the apartment when Darrin pulled a gun. Steve made it to his car and retrieved his own gun and waited in the shadows for Darrin to come down to the street. Screams could be heard from Tisha’s den and Steve couldn’t bare to wait any longer. He ran to save the female he loved.
    Steve came up from behind Darrin and unloaded on him. Shot him 15 times in the back. Shot him dead. Tisha didn’t cry for Darrin one tear. She fell into the arms of Steve and convinced him to leave. She would tell the police it was a robbery. Steve was out of his mind. Not a word from her lips did he hear. He dropped his gun, walked to his car, drove home in a daze. His mind broke open and in poured doubt, regret and loss. He couldn’t go on living knowing he killed a man in cold blood.
    The police bought Tisha’s story. Each officer could name half of a dozen men who would love to end Darrin’s life. Tisha went to Steve’s place as soon as she could but she was too late. Steve took his own life and left her alone. No lover and no husband, all she had was dancing in a cage for money at Wild Stallions. Steve was her ray of hope and now that hope was gone. She loved him too much. She couldn’t let him be alone. So, she joined the only male she ever loved, more importantly, ever loved her.

Good story, but I think you’ve mixed up Darrin and Steve’s names in a couple of places:

1. ” She knew that Steve would eventually crash into her life again looking for what he claimed was his to take.” I think should be Darrin

2. “Tisha didn’t cry for Steve one tear. She fell into the arms of Darrin and convinced him to leave.” I think the names should be the other way round.
