Flashback

Lisa approached the parked car slowly when she sighted her father’s fuming figure from where she stood.

“Oh no!” She mouthed, before scurrying to the car. She stood in between him and her security guard whom her dad was berating, forcing a smile on her lips. “Hi, Dad.”

He didn’t return her smile. “I didn’t know you now have enough time to prank your guards and report to the car thirty minutes after school.”

Lisa hung her head. “I’m sorry, Dad. Pamela asked me to accompany her to get some ice cream and I needed one too! I didn’t know the line at the store will be too long.” She didn’t add that she met the first boy that actually approached her without fear in school. It would piss her father off more and who knows if he would go after the poor boy.

He sighed. “Get into the car, Monalisa.” Her father only addressed her by her full name whenever he was mad at her.

“It’s not his fault, Dad! Moreover, I am sixteen! I should be allowed to go to wherever I want to!” it annoyed

    “Who’s there?” The night guard asked in a stern voice as he walked towards the direction of the sound. It had been a long time since someone ever tried breaking into the mansion; especially with the strict protection there. “Any problem?” A female voice spoke just above him. Raising his head, he came face-to-face with his boss’s daughter. “I am sorry, ma’am. I thought I heard some noises.”She brandished her phone. “I was making a call. Was I too loud?” “Not at all, ma’am. Carry on, please” He quickly scurried away, disappearing into the dark night.Lisa stood by her window, wearing a smug smile. For the first time, she felt being in charge wasn’t particularly a bad thing. “Are you still there?”From the patch of darkness by the wall, reappeared Will, grinning. “I didn’t know you had this side of you.”A tinge of red crawled up Lisa’s face. “What side are we talking about here.”He shook his head. “Never mind. I have to go now before another guard appears. See you tomorrow?”

    End of flashback…A knock on the door jerked Lisa out of her train of thought. She frowned, supporting herself off the Victorian black rug that added a professional look to the office. She wiped the tears that had subconsciously run down her cheeks, making sure not to smug her make-up. “Who’s there?” “It’s me, ma’am. It’s three hours already and you have a meeting in thirty minutes.”Lisa sighed. Already? How did time pass so quickly? She took a deep breath to calm her emotions and returning her face to the usual professional look, she walked to her chair behind the mahogany table. “Come in.”The door opened and Sonia entered with her head lowered to the ground. “Are you okay, ma’am? Do you need me to cancel the rest of your schedule today?” Lisa chuckled. “Do I look that incompetent to you?” “I-I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be rude. I was just…” “Concerned? About me?” Another wry chuckle escaped her cheeks. “You don’t need to be. I don’t need it.” “I am sorry, ma’am.”Lisa

  • A Million Dreams   Whatever we had...

    His lips inched closer and subconsciously; Lisa’s eyes shut close. She regretted shutting her eyes almost immediately as the picture of Belinda moaning loudly while he pounded her appeared, flooding her head. His lips finally touched her and instead of the pictures going away, it increased; this time, it wasn’t just Belinda but all the ladies she had paid off to leave the country for having a sex scandal with him. She felt his tongue push against her lips, trying to enter her mouth. Ew! Who kisses like that?! Her thoughts scattered as he bit her lips. Her red lips patted immediately and just as his tongue touched hers, bile rose to her throat. Talk about bad timing. She pushed him away immediately. “Goodnight, Raymond.” Her throat still burned a little from the sip of whisky but she ignored it, and him. She took large strides up the stairs without looking back. By God! This was the last time she would ever let his lips touch hers. The minute she was in her room, Lisa banged the d

  • A Million Dreams   I Accept Your Conditions...

    Lisa sat rigid in the car while Will stood by the door awaiting Sonia.She couldn’t afford to show him a bit of a smile. Raymond may be very comfortable making headlines in newspapers but she didn’t want to.It could cost her her major investors; the Norths.Sonia returned soon to relay the news to her boss that the document she sought couldn’t be found. Lisa dismissed her with a wave of her hand and the journey to the company began. Although she had sworn not to, she couldn’t help but steal glances at him through the rear-view mirror. His eyes were tightly glued to the busy road in front of me. He didn’t even act like he knew she was watching!She closed her eyes and sighed. This was hard. Way harder than she had thought it would be.Perhaps, if he had hurt her or broken up with her in the past, it would have been easier but with the circumstances, they parted. It was going to be hard getting rid of him in her life.Maybe she should consider firing him and hiring another.No! God, no

  • A Million Dreams   What is she doing here?

    “Ma’am?”Lisa jerked slightly out of her reverie, shifting her gaze to the young woman on the shotgun seat. “Huh?” “Are you okay? Your ears are red; plus, I have been calling you.” Sonia expressed her concern.From the corner of her eyes, Lisa stole a glance at Will whose eyes were still fixed on the road like he wasn’t in the same car with them. “Yeah. I’m fine.” Readjusting quickly, she stepped down from the already packed car.She had barely taken two steps when her phone rang. One glance at the caller’s ID, her heart did a backflip and she quickly turned to Sonia. “What date is today?” “July, 20th.”Lisa subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief. Raymond’s mother, Mary, hated it when her birthday was forgotten. Luckily, it was still two weeks ahead. “Hello, mother.” “Here I thought that someone had forgotten her mother.” A sharp tone replied to her from the other end. Raymond’s mother had a very sharp and rude-like tone. Most times, it was difficult to tell when she is cracki

    Belinda took graceful steps, giving the cameras that flashed at her different exotic poses as she approached the shocked Lisa. The smile on her face was graceful but Lisa couldn’t help but find it pretentious and distasteful. “Lisa!” she sounded surprised. “I have seen you in a long while.”Lisa returned the fake smile with a fake one. “I haven’t seen you in a while either. Although I am glad about that.” One thing her position as CEO had taught her all these years was to have a vile tongue and not to spare frenemies the venom of her tongue. “I missed you.” She hugged her. Lisa felt disgusted. If it weren’t for the cameras snapping away furiously behind them, she would have pushed her away.She feigned a smile and patted Belinda’s back gently. “What are you doing here? I don’t remember sending an invitation card to your family.” She questioned the minute they disengaged. She had been the one in charge of sending out the entire invitations and she didn’t recall sending Belinda or h

    “Raymond.”Although Lisa had expected something like that, it still didn’t stop her heart from shattering; neither did it stop her shoulders from slumping. That’s it? She had thought enduring Raymond’s incessant cheating was all she had to endure.And now? He is having a baby? With Belinda?She scoffed to keep the tears bubbling inside her away from her eyes. She had successfully kept her emotions in check all these years. She wasn’t about to blow that now.Mary gripped the girl with both arms. “Are you telling me the truth?” Her face had a serious expression. She was okay to play with any topic except that of her grandchild.Belinda nodded, her expression falling further like a little child who has been wrong. “I was surprised too. We only did it once. I didn’t expect to…to…”Lisa glared at her. It was obvious Belinda was hinting at how fertile she was compared to Lisa. Ouch! That hurt. “Does Raymond know about this?” “I can see you finally got my birthday gift even before I ar

    “Where do you want to go to, ma’am?” Will asked for the umpteenth time, his eyes traveling between the dejected woman in the back seat and the road ahead of him. “Keep driving.” She replied absentmindedly, her gaze not leaving the window.It had been almost an hour since she ordered him to take her out of the party. An hour since they had been driving aimlessly around the streets. She didn’t brawl like he had expected her to. She just kept staring at the window, her gaze giving away her turbulent emotions. “Do you want to go home?” He knew he was crossing the line but he was willing to try after all. “Do you have a problem with driving? Or should I take this as a hint that you no longer want your job?” her voice was stern, piercing through the silence of the car. “Sorry, ma’am.”She scoffed, shifting her gaze to look at him for the first time since they started driving. “Are you really sorry? Or are you happy that I am in this position?” she returned her gaze outside the win

  • A Million Dreams   She Had Been With A Man

    The door creaked open and Lia walked in, wearing a black dress and balanced in a pair of stilettos. The green dress she had worn to Will’s was destroyed two days ago in their moment of pleasure. Remembering how hectic the past two days had been, brought smiles to her face. There was this unmistakable glow on her face that moment and despite that she couldn’t see her face, she could tell from the huge smile that wouldn’t leave.She walked into the house, expecting to find it empty. The house was the same as she had left it. She couldn’t believe she hadn’t been home in four whole days. It was the first time ever she was away for that long considering that she hadn’t gone on a business trip. She eased off her shoes at the door, padding barefooted on the smooth marble floor. “So, you finally have the cheek to come back here.” A gruff voice stopped her in her tracks.She jerked, turning to look at the figure on the couch that she hadn’t noticed earlier.Raymond was dressed in a pair of c

    Lisa awakened to a kiss on her temple. She hummed with a beautiful smile; her messy hair sprawled all over the pillow. She then turned to look at the gorgeous man beside her who was dressed in a robe, the memories of the night before, flooding her head. “Good morning.” He reached out to kiss her lips and she bit his lower lips, capturing it softly between her teeth. “Is it morning already?” She moaned in complaint.He shrugged. “I hate to wake you, but your phone won’t stop ringing.”She groaned, before reaching out for her phone to return Sonia’s calls. “Sonia. Hmm… clear my schedule today. I have a family gathering to attend.” She paused, trying hard to hold her giggles as Will teased her earlobes with his mouth. “Oh, and call my chauffeur. Tell him I won’t be needing his services today. He can take the day off… Yes, that will be all.”She dropped the phone almost the same time Will’s started ringing. Sure, it was Sonia. Lisa crawled out of the bed, slipping into Will’s shirt th

  • A Million Dreams   Warm Sheets

    Lisa didn’t know what to feel. Too much pleasure attacked her entire senses in one go. Will’s hands and mouth were just everywhere on her aroused body and just one touch on her still-clad breasts sent her to the moon and made her entire body quiver. He was right there to catch her. Minutes later, when she finally opened her eyes, his dark eyes were staring straight into hers, patiently waiting for her to come down the cloud f pleasure. Her eyes teared as the warmth seeped into her long, cold heart.He wiped off her tears. “No more tears, my love. At least, not tonight.”She nodded, still unable to stop the tears that fell.He took a step back and cursed almost wordlessly, running his hand through his hair.It was her turn to be surprised. “Will?”He punched the fur-like cushion on the nearest sofa. “I know you wouldn’t want me to ask but I can't help but wonder why you are still with him even when he clearly treats you like a piece of shit!”Lisa wasn’t angry at his words. She was smi

  • A Million Dreams   Kiss me senseless

    Lisa was flustered. Her ears were red and her lips were swollen. She looked at the man in front of her. His ears were red too and his eyes peered straight into her soul like he wanted to eat her right there. Not like she had any plans to stop him.He shook his head when she tried to reach his lips again, his arms holding her at arm's length like she was some poison he was dreading. “Stop it, Lisa. We can’t.”Lisa’s heart fell. She had known right before deciding to follow him to his house but hearing him vocalize it now, hurt her. Maybe, she shouldn’t have come. Perhaps she should have just returned home and quietly allowed the Norths have their way.She took a step away from him, her head bowed to the ground. “You are right. Maybe I should go back and let them abuse me however they want.”He growled, running his hand through his soft hair. How could he not know what she was trying to do. “Don't you dare do that, Lisa. Don’t you dare try to pin this whole thing on me!”How could she d

    Lisa stood by the window, staring at nothing in particular. She had been stuck at the office for hours without being able to do a single thing. Thoughts of the previous night filled her head.As she pushed herself to work on the first file Sonia had brought into the office that morning, she told herself the reason she still felt overwhelmed was probably because she had never been touched for the last seven whole years since she took that dreaded decision to trade a tasteless marriage for Will’s safety.However, it didn’t stop the vivid dreams.They came back stronger by the minute, detailing how he pushed her against the wall and how he kissed the skin of her neck.Her hand subconsciously grazed the places his lips had touched. Her breath became heavy and for a moment, she thought she couldn’t breathe. All these years, she had endured not having sex even after she was long married but now, her whole body ached to be touched; to be tortured sweetly under Will and be penetrated by him.

  • A Million Dreams   The Next Morning...

    The kiss was in no way gentle. It was like two starved people who were finally given food. They both just couldn’t get enough. Will easily took over the kiss, his tongue expertly playing tag with hers. He wanted to tease her and make her beg for his kisses for the woman in front of him grabbed the back of his head, kissing him with all fury like she was hungry and he was food.He lifted her up effortlessly without breaking the kiss and placed her back against the wall, digging deep into her mouth like it was some treasure mine. God! How long had he seen this in his dream? He was still yet to believe it was happening.Lisa grounded herself against him, pouring out her entire emotions in one kiss. She wanted him; she had always wanted him ever since he showed up at her office for the job interview. He was like the moon, despite the light he provided, she could only look at him from afar and now that she finally had him in her arms, she didn’t want to let go. ever again.His lips left he

  • A Million Dreams   Pool Of Heat

    Lisa sat still at the back of the moving vehicle, wondering what next step to take. She couldn’t boast of having any friend she could turn to in the entire city. Instead, she had more enemies. The thought of that made her chuckle. She dreaded going to another hotel too.Either way, it wouldn’t take long before Raymond caught up with her. It wasn’t such a bad thing but she couldn’t get rid of the bad feeling she had in her stomach. The Norths were used to having their way even when things didn’t go as planned for them and she didn’t want to be their next scapegoat either.She couldn’t continue roaming around the streets. Even Will needed to go home. She sighed, forcing the words she didn’t want to say out of her mouth. “Can you find me a place I can spend the night?” She swallowed. “Or you can help me find somewhere safe to park the car. I can spend the night in here.”She doubted that. Who knew if Raymond had her car tracked? What if he decided to vent out his anger by hitting her?

    Lisa shot off her mother’s lap, turning to look at her in shock. “What on earth are you talking about?” she tried hard not to raise her voice to attract her father who was probably still in the sitting room.Sighing, her mother reached out her hand to caress her hair. “Look, I know you are not in the best of mood right now but we still have to face the facts.”Lisa swallowed hard. “Are you implying that you believe them?”She was beginning to regret ever showing up there. “Of course not, sweetheart. Why would I believe them over my own daughter—” “Then, what are you saying?”She sighed. “Raymond is the only son of the Norths. You should know by now that they need an heir.”Lisa scoffed. “It is not my fault.” She stated. “I would never let that goddamn womanizer ever touch me.”Her mother held her shoulders. “You have to, Lisa. Everything is at stake here. The business, our family, your marriage, your reputation, everything.”Lisa scoffed. “I get it. You are more worried about havi

    The office remained silent even long after Mary left. Lisa kept playing with the pen on her hand till it eventually snapped into two, a sharp edge piercing into her index finger but she could barely feel the pain. The pain in her chest was deeper than the one in her hand.The pain of being scorned by the public and called infertile.A tear escaped her eyes, sliding down her cheeks like water on glass.She was too deep in her thoughts that she didn’t hear the knock on her door, nor did she notice when Sonia entered the room. “Ma’am?”She was too still like a statue; too broken to know what went on around her.The files suddenly dropped from Sonia’s hands jerking Lisa back to reality. “Oh my God! You are hurt!”The young lady fidgeted, wondering if it was okay to grab Lisa’s hands or if she should just hang around there.Lisa looked down on her bleeding finger. “I’m fine.” She replied lifelessly. “Just get the first aid box.”Minutes later, she was walking down the hallway of her offi
