Immediately after the bite, he curled up in bed like a cat and slept off. There was communication in what he just did to me. I had only stepped forward to give him a goodbye kiss. Perhaps I shouldn’t have done that. The bite was so excruciating that my hands trembled greatly under the pain and itches that ran up my veins now.

And about the thunderous looks on his face when he woke up and saw me with my luggage? I hadn’t seen such countenance on him since I got married to him. What was that all about? Could it be that Brian was regaining his sanity gradually or what? The looks were epic. You know the looks of a kid whose parents were about to leave for work.

Those inflated cheeks of his and his narrowed brow still struck me in the head and I was beginning to see a sign of sanity finding its way back into his life.

“I had to dash out when I heard your scream. It is a pity, Melissa.” Salsa said while she treated me with first aid apparatus, pulling me forward to herself each time I f

  • A Contract Marriage With The Billionaire’s Mad Son   ~Sanity Restored~

    Once I got back to the chambers, I tucked up behind the door of the toilet, banged the door and broke down in tears. I shook greatly within myself because I couldn’t tell what was going on in me anymore; there was this rare obsession in me that was unimaginably impossible to explain. I thought I had agreed to let them know about my intention to divorce Brian prior to the appointed hour; I thought I was about to speak. Why then did I keep shut when I heard Brian scream? Suddenly, I had realized and appreciated this rare bonding between us; and parting was only by words and not by action.I struggled to accept this fate and when I stared into the mirror on the wall, I saw a heart that was no longer owned by me but by an insatiable soul; that soul that believed itself on my shoulders.When I gazed upon his picture on the wall, I knew he was that soul.That night I was shattered to raise a limb. I got cold spines and only struggled to go about my duty in our chambers.When I touched Brian

    Never in my entire life have I gone berserk! Never in my prime life have I screamed the way I just did. My sonorous voice blared across the villa, in an alarming, clamoring manner. Salsa’s door was my first destination. I appeared at her door, pummeling and slamming my hands on it as though some dragon was after my life and if she didn’t come out I was going to be a piece of rotten corpse.Right after there, I went to Opula’s chamber and slammed on it in an annoying, ravaging manner that was supposed to earn me a dirty resounding slap if she had come out just then. But I never cared who it was; I suddenly forgot her hatred towards me and what just mattered most to me at the time was the good news. Just like Salsa, she hesitated and didn’t come out immediately.But I had let loose and threw caution to the wind, not giving a shot at whose door I was slamming. Next was on Kate’s door. I shook on it, calling her attention and that of her husband before drifting to that of Eva.“Eva! Eva!

  • A Contract Marriage With The Billionaire’s Mad Son   ~No longer Contract Marriage As Usual~

    Being confused was an understatement; Brian was yet to hear from anyone as regards to the tragedy that befell him. He stood, perplexed and star-struck as everyone gazed upon him with bewildered looks.By the corner, Eva was tucked to a wall, peered her face between her thighs and wailed expressly, while her husband nursed her by stroking her hair.Brian stood with wide open arms, staring at his father, myself, Opula and Kate for a detailed explanation of what befell him and the reason for his blistered looks.Opula whispered to Kate, “How did he regain his sanity? And what did this poor vegetable seller do?”“This is strange, sis,” Kate whispered, partly gagging her mouth, as she peered at her head, “I suspect voodoo.” She cast a dark star at me and Opula did the same.“Voodoo?” Opula sounded and scowled her face at her, “How possible is that?”“That is the only way she could help Brian regain his sanity. This girl is from southern Rio Hondo. They are best known for their voodoo pract

    When I locked my sorry eyes into his green watery eyes, I misunderstood his coldness for rage and his crimson cheeks for impending wrath. His face slowly curled back into gloom and strong features that I began to wonder the ills and flaws his sisters must have briefed him about me.He hesitated to speak yet further and I fought back the urge to blow hot at him; I was expecting his compliment for all the sacrifices I did for him. Perhaps I was too fast to expect compliment from a young, cute man from an influential family who would still divorce me for women of his caliber.After all, a while ago, he kept peering his head at his father’s staring at me blankly while they discussed. What else could they be discussing if not me; my poor family background and being a gold digger?Brain’s voice was hoarse, so I misunderstood him, and added, “I know they have told you all sorts about me. First thing tomorrow morning, I will invite the barrister and file for a divorce. The contract stipulates

    I barged into the doctor’s office only to meet the entire Fanny’s well seated before the doctor."Doctor! Doctor!” I panted, “How is my husband? How is Brian?”I paced up and down, anxious about the fate of Brian. When the doctor hesitated to speak up I asked yet further, “Talk to me doctor. What is the problem with my husband?”All eyes came on me. Opula quarreled with me through those gloomy eyes.Kate cursed me in her breath.It was only Fanny Luis that sucked a breath and snorted. “Melissa perk up. Everything is going be okay. You don’t need to worry,” Fanny petted me.“Calm down, Melissa,” replied the doctor, “You need to perk up. We are handling this and I promise you Brian is going to be fine.” he said yet so much was hidden in his eyes.I let those tears trickled down her cheeks. I could see the emotion that decked the eyes of Fanny and I could tell something drastic had happened to Brian. It was obvious all was

    Opula fumed at Melissa, “I guess you heard the doctor. Why don’t you leave now! He wants to discuss with the Fanny’s and I am sure you are no longer family.” She pointed at the door and yelled yet further, “Can't you hear me. I said leave now!”I fumed back at her, “What arrant nonsense, Opula. Have you chosen to disgrace me in public? I am still part of this family. I am Brian’s wife, legally married. You don’t have to embarrass me as though I am some stranger!”“Shhh!” Kate shut me up with her finger on her lips, “You are a liar. You are no longer my brother’s wife. He has regained his sanity and the contract marriage agreement has stated you can be divorced once he regains his sanity. Automatically, you are no longer family. Leave us now!”Opula added arrogantly, “Yes, of course, so I suggest you return home and get your luggage ready to vacate the villa because in not time soon, our lawyer will serve you the divorce papers. For now this is a matter that is exclusively reserved for

    Opula and Kate were glancing at the contract marriage documents and shook their heads as they glanced through the clauses, which got them saddened by the privileges I stood to gain if Brian should die.“Oh my God! I don’t know what came over father the moment he drafted this contract marriage agreement in favor of that bitch,” Opula said and tossed the document away, “Can you imagine! Is it because we are girls or what? Why would father make the entire Fanny Group revolve around that bitch because she is married to our brother?”Kate replied, “If we do nothing about this, I bet you we are going to lose. That poor kitten will rule over us. First, we have made the mistake of not going through the contract marriage agreement before letting that smelling thing marry our brother.”“Yes, you are right, Kate. It is a weakness on our path,” Opula concurred.Kate grabbed the document once again. “Is she not going to use this against us?” Kate queried, pointing at a clause, “Read through the te

    There was a knock on the door. I lacked the verve to answer the door. But the guest entered after waiting for a while without anyone answering.It was Salsa. She was having handy a tray of dish and once she caught sight of my moody face and my sorrowful countenance, sobbing hugely, she paused, breathed uneasily and shook her head. She walked gently to my side.“I made you green tea, doughnuts and tomatoes. I specially made it for you. I guess you need to calm your nerves and pet your heart, after the troubles.”She was done serving breakfast at the dining. And although she expected me to respond, she didn’t expect it to be prompt. She hadn’t seen much of me these days, and she wondered if I had disappeared out of the villa like she had always thought.At the time, I was still gazing upon the photos of Brian and fondling with my fingers as I couldn’t stop recalling sensual memories with Brian and what fate had for him now he was in a coma.Salsa shook her head in pity once she shot an

    Eva grinned briefly, “He was expecting war I guess. He wants you to finish strong. That is why you must not give in to the fuss my sisters are pulling. Your right is your right. My father drafted the clauses in the marriage agreement to benefit you and your husband. This the time you must stand firm and stop shying away.”I hummed and sucked my teeth; when I thought my husband’s sanity, which was restored, would fetch the peace I had long desired, I never knew a fresh endless war had just begun. I wondered how I was going to cope with two toxic sisters that were ready to pour hell on me.“They feel cheated, disgruntled and rejected. They think I am stealing from them. If my husband were here I wouldn’t bother because he has been destined to be the heir.” I sniffed back tears, “indeed Brian’s absence is the reason for this war. I wonder why he would want me to finish strong. Is he not going to survive the coma? Does that sound like a farewell?”Warm tears trickled down my cheeks.She i

    I was stroking my sizeable belly while I stared at Brian’s photo with the test result handy. Right now my joy was full; I was carrying the baby of my soul food, a man that had stolen my heart to a coma; my true destiny.There was a shuffling walker at the corridor; obviously someone was approaching my chamber.Immediately I perceived an intruder, I caught the test result, squeezed it and hid out of eye shot.The door creaked and opened afterward.“Good morning, dear,” Eva greeted as she stood at the door, and smiled cheerfully at me, who smiled back.“I guess you are feeling better now. You were all tears when I checked on you earlier.”I had a light makeover on my face and a broader gown over my body, so as to hide symptoms of my pregnancy.“Thank you Eva,” I said softly, “I am getting stronger even when I shouldn’t. I don’t think it is ever going to be easy without a gentle soul as he.” My gaze was on the photo of Brian on the wall.Eva advanced forward, “I can’t thank you enough fo

    I was able to make it to another doctor, not too far from the major town, but far from eyeshot.For over thirty minutes, I perched at my seat, waiting for the doctor to come up with the results of the test he conducted on me.He had mentioned the pregnancy confirmatory test, and my anxiety had built like rivers at the sea.The doctor was delaying and I was as anxious as a stolen cat. I couldn’t wait to hear the result despite having the instinct it was pregnancy. I had never been so cautious in life than I am now.My arms wrapped around my belly in expectation of the pregnancy.Smiling cheek to cheek, the doctor walked out with a paper in his hand. Although the smile was contagious, I wasn’t ready to return the compliment, so I frowned.As soon as he settled down he intoned, “Congratulations, Melissa,” The doctor offered a warm handshake to me, “You are two weeks pregnant, Melissa.” He handed the test result to me, his smile still kept.“Wow! Oh my God” I struggled to mutter, leaving

    Melissa! Melissa!” Salsa’s voice called earnestly as she advanced towards the closet, “Are you okay, Melissa? What is wrong with you? This is not ordinary anymore.” She gave an investigative gaze on my bust and face once more.At the time, I was still panting and struggling with breath at the sink. My stomach churned with hotness and more fluid wanted to leave my gut yet I fought it back. I was losing breath now, but I dared to breathe hard.“I shut my eyes and summoned the courage to fight off the urge to throw up again. “What is wrong with me?” I asked within myself, pondering over what I hadn’t eaten for the past days.My thought was in the direction of the food I hadn’t eaten for days now and if it was getting me sick already.“Are you OK, Melissa?” Salsa hounded me with her endless questions.Forcefully I replied her, “I am just fine. Let me be!” I snapped, almost getting furious at her. “I think I am sick. I may be visiting the family doctor soon.” I breathed uneasily and spat a

    I saw the fire in the eyes of Opula and Kate while they discussed with the lawyer and she knew a war was raging; one that would end any time soon and might be heartbreaking.“Why is the family lawyer here?” Salsa queried and settled her gaze on me who was shooting furious eyes at Opula and Kate as they seemed to be carried away by the discussion.“I guess to divorce me.” I replied, “Perhaps I shouldn’t have signed to this contract marriage in the first place since there is only one way in and too many ways out…” she paused as warm tears trickled down her cheeks. “They are embodiments of ungratefulness. After all I did for their insane brother?” I sniffed and heaved a breath.Salsa kept staring at Opula and Kate as they accompanied the lawyer to the visitors’ chamber, obviously to continue the discussion there.“Why don’t you accept the divorce and have your peace since you are not pregnant for Brian. Salsa stroked my long hair, “You have suffered enough. You have sacrificed a lot for
