Chapter: Chapter 78: The end of the deityIje took the enchanted sword and the wizard cloak around the whole communities. They all accepted to lift the ban. The traditional rulers had to search for a powerful sorcerer who would lift the ban. Ije stayed behind to make sure the people were extricated before going back to her community. The people organized a small ceremony for her and Nwife. They led them down to Ikpa land before bidding farewell to them. The youths of Ikpa insisted she must go with the four-wheeled donkey she won when she was on her way to Umuora. It was a straight journey back to Ohanta as they were already familiar with the paths. *********** "Where is the sword?" Ezeudo of Ohanta asked Ije when she had finished her story. "It has been taken down to the shrine," Ije responded. "By who?" The people chorused. "The only man I trusted with my life." The people looked around and saw Nwife standing at the entrance of the Obi with the Princess. Ezeudo could not believe he was looking at her daughter after so

Chapter: Chapter 77: The Enchanted sword It had been four years already since Ije and Nwife came to Umuora, but the star had refused to show up. Oja had tried everything possible to make sure he separated both of them, but all his efforts proved abortive. He realized they were so in love the day he caught Nwife giving Ije a sponge bathe. It took him one full moon to be himself again. Since the solution to the problem of the two communities lay in the wizard's cave, Ije had decided to stay as long as the star appeared. Nwife also tried to convince her to go and return when the start would likely appear, but he gave up on her insistence. Soon they began to explore the community and were quite happy with the people. The people treated Ije with so much kindness. She found it difficult to leave without liberating them. The long-awaited day had come and Nwife and Ije were on their bed. Since he had been the one bathing and cooking for her, Ije got so comfortable around him. She could tell him everything and do everything while

Chapter: Chapter 76: The origin of the wicked deityThe morning dawned with low-hanging clouds. There was a calmness in the Palace as a result of the heavy downpour of rain. Oja who got his father's permission to speak with her in the early hours paused at Ije's door when he heard her talking to Nwife. He tried to eavesdrop but he could not hear what they were saying. He leaned against a wall and was lost in thought, trying to find a way of separating the two of them. A maid can with her breakfast and brought him back to reality. He took the food from her and knocked. Nwife let him in and tried to leave after greeting him. Oja waved at him to stop. Nwife knew he was jealous and would probably ask if he slept with her. "Thank you," Oja shook hands with him. Nwife accepted his handshake and stared surprisingly at him. "For what?" He asked. "For saving my brother last night." "She did; she is the healer," Nwife pointed at Ije. "You called her attention....em...one more thing...never mind, you can go now." Oja kept the food on a smal

Chapter: Chapter 75: Oja broke an oathOja took Ije took home after exploring the community for some hours. Ozo loitered at the entrance of the Palace. He could not wait to see the chosen one who transformed his brother. Some villagers who heard what happened huddled at the Palace and were waiting patiently for her. Their joy knew no bounds. The women ran to her and hauled her up the moment she was spotted. Ozo stared appreciatively at her. He knew the end of their suffering had come. He had wished to explore other communities and bring in new knowledge. The people sang and danced for more than two hours. Food was served to them and they ate together and went back home. The king was surprised Ije ate comfortably with them. Soon she began to feel sleepy and needed to bathe before going to bed. Oja led her to the backyard, and Nwife followed them. He engaged Oja in a conversation just to make sure he was not stealing glances at her. They walked her back to her cottage when she was through. Nwife left them and joined Offia

Chapter: Chapter 74: The task"What did they need from the chosen one?" Nwife asked. Offia stood up and looked outside again to see if anyone was coming. He returned and took off the plantation leaves he used to cover his genitals and tried to put the wrapper on his waist just like Nwife tied his. Nwife stood, helped him and they sat down again. "The neighboring communities want to be sure the wizard is dead, secondly they want his enchanted sword and everything that belongs to him out of this community before they would accept our peace offer. This is where the chosen one comes in." "Your people should do what they asked of them. It is a very simple task, I thought they were demanding a hundred heads in retaliation for what the wizard did. "They said the wizard has a cloak. Anyone who touches it dies instantly. Besides; all the magicians who have gone to the cave to check if the wizard is alive or dead did not come out till today. No one knows what is happening inside the cave." "Wait....wait....wait....were y

Chapter: Chapter 73: The secret"Nice wrapper," Offia, the third son of the king said as he touch Nwife's wrapper. Nwife opened his eyes, he could not believe he has been sleeping for the past three hours. The sun had gone down and the weather looked as though it was going to rain heavily. Nwife rubbed his hand on his eyes. He was very very tired. He looked at the figure that stood before him and quickly came down from the chair. "I'm sorry for trespassing, I have nowhere to go." Nwife said. "No problem. You are the stranger that came with the Queen this morning right?" Offia asked. Nwife nodded. Offia brought his hand forward for a handshake Nwife shook hands with him. "You are indeed a gentleman. I can't perform such a task," Offia said as he took a seat beside him. "What task?" Nwife asked. Offia turned and looked at him. "You are so naive. Are you castrated?" "Hmm...no...I'm not," Nwife responded. "Leading such a beautiful woman down to this community without defiling her is one of the greatest tasks ever

Chapter: Chapter 40: The endGabrielle was awoken by the constant buzzing of her phone. She sighed and rolled over. Her husband traveled out of the country last week and they were expecting him that day. He pulled the phone closer and stared at the caller, it was Agatha, her best friend. She reluctantly picked up the call. Agatha had never failed to call her since she put to bed six weeks ago. "Gabby, your baby's picture is garnering attention on social media. You need to add your maiden name to your name. Felicia…you remember her right?" Agatha asked. "Yes," Gabrielle responded with a low tone. She could not believe her friend woke her up because of her baby's pictures she uploaded on social media. "She said our friends have a group chat but no one knows your whereabouts. Please add your maiden so they will find you. Do it now and call me back," Agatha said and hung up. Gabrielle added her maiden name just as her friend suggested and tossed the phone aside. She stood up and checked the time, it was a few mi

Rita had an issue with her husband, she intended to stay with her brother for a while. However, she packed her things and returned to her husband to give them space.

He filled the house with beautiful toys for him. He kept appreciating Gabrielle for not considering abortion. On Monday morning, Brian and Gabrielle were still in bed. None of them felt like going to work. She rolled out of the bed weakly and Brian pulled her back. "Where are you off to?" "To the office""No, you need some days off and plan your birthday which falls on Saturday. Let's give your people a little surprise."Gabrielle quickly put her palm on her lips. She couldn't believe Brian remembered her birthday. She didn't remember telling him anyt

Chapter: Chapter 47: Catching up"Do you remember the first day we met?" Brian asked, staring into her eyes. Gabrielle nodded with a smile. "I fell in love with you that day, but I felt we will never be together. Mike was very smart and intelligent. He figured out I'm in love with you and called me dateless love.""Dateless as in timeless?""He meant I would never date you. You are beyond my league.""I never knew how much I loved you until I watched the cops take you away. My heart broke into pieces. I cried, but you didn't notice. "I did and I felt bad. I would have avoided the fight.""What happened when you left?" Gabrielle asked. "I was detained and set free after some days. I had no money to clear the outrageous hospital bills Mike's family gave me, I had to sell the land. I regretted not selling it earlier and established myself. When I remembered the business I ventured into was your idea, I knew everything happened at the right time. I wouldn't have invested the money wisely if I hadn't met you.""Which i

Chapter: Chapter 46: Reunion Mr. Ruben walked into Brian's office when he closed work for the day. He saw their boss leaning on his desk and Gabrielle crouching on his side. He frowned but tried to conceal his disappointment. He wanted Gabrielle desperately. "Sir, here are the account details you requested," he said dropping a file on the desk and walking slowly away. "Momi, let's go home," he muttered, planting a kiss on her forehead. Gabrielle picked up her handbag and began to leave the office. Brian held her hand. "We are going out together," he grinned. His seductive smile hadn't changed a bit "Gabby, you are extremely persistent, I'm not letting you out of my sight." Brian held her hand as he walked to his car. The company's chauffeur had positioned the car, waiting for him. "I want to get my bag.""Where is it?" He asked. "At the logistics office.""We are going to pick it up on our way out. Hop in Let's go."Rita entered the passenger's side, Brian and Gabrielle entered the rear side. Brian pulled Ga

Chapter: Chapter 45: Father and sonGabrielle alighted hurriedly when the cab she boarded pulled over in front of her apartment. She did want Brian to come after her. She ignored all the surprised eyes that were staring at her and began to pack a few of her and her baby's things. "Talk to me, Gabby, what happened?" Agatha held her bag. "Agatha, please…""Do you think I'll let you walk out of that door without telling me what happened?" Agatha asked. Gabrielle took the baby and began to dress him up. "I saw his father," she whimpered. "I'm booking a same-day flight to Pretoria. Phillip has been begging me to marry him, I think I'm ready to marry him," Gabrielle said. "Whose father?" Agatha asked. "Brian's father.""Whoo!" Agatha screamed happily. "Finally!" Agatha continued screaming. Gabrielle ignored her and lifted her baby and began to walk towards the door. "Wai..wai…wait! Are you running away from the man you have been searching for for the past two years? You are so difficult Gabrielle!" "He is married an

Chapter: Chapter 44: Good news turns to bad news Gabrielle went to work very early the next day, ready for her boss. She switched her system on and began to work. Two company security men walked into her office without knocking. Gabrielle shot them a cold stare and understood something was amiss. "You are invited to a disciplinary hearing in the boss's office," they announced. Gabrielle stood up immediately and followed them. The members of the board were already there waiting for her. She greeted them and gestured to a chair. Mr. Ruben listed all the policies she had violated so far, and none of them were true. Gabrielle tried to defend herself, but the board members did not believe her. She was given a six months suspension without salary. According to the board members, the company was newly established and couldn't afford to pay workers who were suspended. Gabrielle picked up her things and left the company with tears in her eyes. Six months of living without a monthly salary was very difficult for Gabrielle and her son. P

Chapter: Chapter 94 The EndEva and Roy arrived at Julian's lane at 11:05 PM. The four feet high driveway luxurious gate had been closed. The logistics office was also closed. Roy blasted the horn for more than five minutes, and none of the logisticians on night duty came out. The rain was quite heavy, so the horn was not heard. "Let's go back," Roy said, switching the ignition on. Eva grabbed her clutch bag and opened the door. "Seriously?" "I'm going in," Eva responded and came down. Roy came down too. "I'm going with you." "No, go home," Eva said walking towards the gate. Roy continued following her. She raised her long gown and crossed the gate. Roy did the same too. The rain was quite heavy, but Eva did not mind. Eva never knew the distance between the entrance and the mansion was a bit far until that day. The road seemed endless. "Roy, please…go…back," Eva sputtered as a result of the cold and shivering that had taken over her body. "No," Roy continued walking beside her. A torchlight came dire

Chapter: Chapter 93. Eva Goes Back To JulianJulian stood behind the window of the hotel room where he spent the night. He couldn't sleep in his bedroom without Eva in his arms. Everything around the house reminded him of her. It was as though she had gone for long, so he took his bodyguards out and lodged in a hotel. He quickly turned when his phone began to ring and walked toward the small table in his hotel room. He accepted the call reluctantly. His father had called him more than ten times already without positive news."Julian, come back home," Dr. Viraj's voice came in as soon as he picked up the call. "Is she back?" Julian asked with a flat tone. "No, but you have training tomorrow and a tournament on Wednesday. I'm sure you don't want your opponent to defeat you in your home. Please start coming."Julian sighed and hung up. He dropped the phone on the table. He was surprised when another call came in on it. He rolled his eyes and picked up the call. "Julian, did you just hang up on me?" Dr. Viraj asked. "I'm sorry

Chapter: Chapter 92. Eva Meets JamesJames liked to spend the weekend with his family, however, Eva was surprised when she arrived at his residence and his elder brother told her he had not set his eyes on James since they left Julian's house. She knew the only place she would find him - his house. He bought the house a year ago. Eva kept wondering why he decided to spend the weekend in his house. She was welcomed by a blaring sound of music and the unmistakable scent of marijuana as soon as she pulled over and alighted at James' garage. There were different types of exotic cars all over the place. Eva glanced down at her wristwatch and frowned. It was 2:09 pm. Some of his friends who were in front of the building when she arrived welcomed her with joy on their faces. She was led to the pool bar where James was with three beautiful blonde female strippers twerking him back and front. He was also touching them sensually. One of the girls was completely nude. Eva stood there, staring at them. James knew she was st

Chapter: Chapter 91. Best Enemies Eva shuddered when she opened her eyes and saw Nora smiling at her. She was dressed in a very short gown that accentuated her boobs and slim outline and big hips. Eva ran her eyes on her massive cleavage and wondered who she was trying to impress with the devilish dressing of hers. "Nora!" Eva said a bit loudly. "I saw James leaving, he looked sad. Are you guys fighting already?" Nora smirked. "What did he tell you?" Eva asked curiously. Nora had a wide mouth, so Eva was scared James must have told her about her condition. "Nothing, he did not respond to my greeting. He ignored me totally." "It's been long you know…I'm surprised to see you," Eva forced a smile. "You chased me away, have you forgotten? I decided to maintain my space." "I'm sorry…it's quite late, are you going to a party, or are you here to keep me company?" Eva asked, sitting slightly up. "Keep you company? When Julian is alone?" Nora smirked. "Eva, I'm not going to a party or here to keep you company. J

Chapter: Chapter 90Molly turned and saw James walking towards them with his hands in his pocket. She quickly swiveled him so he would not look at Eva who had refused to dress up. She was only putting on a g-string. Her chest was bare and her big bounty mounted like two watermelons. "James, please, wait in the lounge, she will be with you shortly," Molly said walking him to the door. "Is everything alright?" James asked. He was quite worried. "Everything is fine. Fetch her father at once.""Mrs. Miles…""Please, wait in the lounge," Molly said and banged the door. "Eva, please go in there and pick any of your nightwear""Mom, please let me be, I'm not thinking straight right now," she said, sitting on her bed again. Molly opened her closet, brought out nightwear, and threw it at her. Eva tossed it aside. "Your dad is coming up to see you, please put on that gown now," Molly said. Eva ignored her and continued staring outside through the window. Molly grabbed her bedsheets and wrapped it around he

Chapter: Chapter 89. Eva was turned out by the ringing and childish giggle turning up from her father's exclusive lounge. She wiped her eyes and yawned. The two-hour sleep really helped her. She noticed her strength surged up.There was darkness in her bedroom, probably the bulbs were switched off since no one was using the bedroom. There was a thin reflection of light. Eva shrieked when she first saw it because she did not know what it was. She picked courage and walked toward it. Eva discovered a phone fell off the table and was lying face-down. The light was a result of a text message that came in. The phone unlocked immediately her fingers touched the fingerprint sensor. She was surprised James hasn't relinquished her access to his phone. She sat on her bed when the message reader began to read with an automated female voice. "Hi, James, how did it go? Did you get her back? I wish you luck. I must say, you are indeed a stallion just like my friend said."Eva dropped the phone and felt bad. She was
