I stood watching as Isabella left with the kids, not being able to stop them from going. Her words had left me frozen. She didn't love me, not even in the slightest way. No, I couldn't believe that but then again, one thing I was sure of was she didn't want me in the kids’ life nor her life.“ Sir... What should we do? Isabella just left,” my secretary felt the need to remind me that Isabella had gone. “ You and Carlos should drop off the things the twins picked out at their home, call me another driver,” I instructed. “ Yes sir,” she bowed before taking out her phone and calling another of my drivers to come over and have me picked. When I thought today was going to favour me in terms of Isa, looks like I was the only one seeing it that way.Getting to my hotel room, I sprawled on the bed as I drowned myself in my thoughts. Things shouldn't have turned out like this, Isa had changed. Normally, I would have been able to trigger the old flame we had but she was harder to reach tha
A week had passed and Justin was yet to pop up in our lives, this was surprisingly weird but also very relieving. At least, our week has been less dramatic and stressful. The only thing weird was the way James was behaving with me, it nearly seemed like he was having trust issues with me. Maybe I need to talk to him about it. “ Hey,” I drew closer to him on the park bench. We had gone out for an evening stroll to embrace the cool evening breeze.“ Hmm,” he hummed as I came closer to him. This wasn't the reaction I was expecting him to make, something was definitely wrong. “ Is there something bothering you? You can always talk to me if that's the case,” I volunteered. He had been behaving rather restless and unsettled for a while now.“ Yes, I'm surprised you noticed,” he remarked nervously. Why did he look like he was going to break out in serious sweat soon? “ Well, you haven't exactly been doing a good job at hiding your feelings,” I said bluntly. “ True...,” he mu
I stood in the middle of the park in my light dress. I was exhausted. Not from any physical work, not from having fought a battle, not from work, not even from the stress of having to train two twin playful kids, but from having to think every moment of my life. Think of James, think of Justin, and think of how to shuffle my entire life around all these occurrences. In my deep subconscious mind, I wanted to just exist, to float out of reality, into a world only I and I alone could comprehend and understand. To be fair, she didn’t think I wanted to understand it at all. I didn’t need to. As far as it got me away from this toxic life I was living. But running away was out of the option. I had responsibilities and I was not ready to drop them. The reality was different from whatever fantasy she had been imagining in her head and from whatever illusion I so desperately needed to live in.“Mummy, can we play on the swing? " said Aiden, and I was pulled away from my thoughts. "Yes baby, of
CHAPTER 17 ( Chapter 15)“Yes! You heard me, Justin. James is a better father than you will ever be. He doesn't leave when things get rough, he doesn't walk away from me when I need him the most.”My voice started to break. I tried too hard to lock my feelings and keep them hidden for so long. I lived with the pain without uttering a word to anyone and Justin just made me think of it all again.I tried to stop myself from crying. I wanted to yell, grab his collar, and hit his face vtill I felt better. Maybe that way, we would share the same pain."Don't ever compare your lover to me. Those kids Amelia and Aiden belong to me." He asserted with possessiveness that irked me to the core. They belong to him? Other than donating a sperm for them, what else did he do over the years that show they are his?“Where were you? Where were you when I was called from their school to pick them up because they were both sick? Where were you when they would both fall sick and I was left to cater for th
"We can just forget everything, and go back to how we were before all this started. " "Before the kids, before the divorce, before James…"He came closer and closer to me. His hand caressing my cheeks softly. His orbs trained on mine as he spoke. It's been so long since we had such a moment and I thought his presence didn't matter to me anymore but it did. For a moment I forgot who I was and what he had done. I felt like I got my Justin back. The same man that was able to drive me crazy. His hand squeezed my waist tenderly. I struggled to breath evenly. My heart was racing and my mind, well it was calling out for him. Justin's palm left my cheeks. My eyes were still staring at him. He tucked a few strands of my hair behind my ear. His warm hand playfully caressed my cold ear. Oh! Justin knew where to touch me sensitively. He knew how to make me lose myself. He knew everything I liked and everything likely to turn me on. He again lowered his head. I felt his wet tender lips on my
I sat by the door for hours. Cried till I had no tears left to cry. I was scared ,emotionally and physically. I always wanted to live a life filled with love and comfort just like the fairytale movies I saw as a kid . I wanted a love life so amazing that it felt fake to others but all those desires remained imaginations in my head. I was numb and dumb for hours. Weak to the bones one could say . Lost in my own thoughts till I heard a faint knock on the door. "Mummy "Amelia and Aiden were back. I was wallowing in misery for 5 hours. I instantly stood up, wiped my face and adjusted. My eyes were puffy and my face was swollen . The bruises On my arms and neck were still visible but u couldn't find a way to cover them up . I took a deep breath and as always buried my feelings deep down away from the world and most especially my children. When I opened the door ,both Aiden and Amelia rushed in to huh me. I knelt in front of them and gave them kisses on their forehead. Even t
James stopped kissing my neck. The sight of my breast amazed him, I could tell by the burning desire In his eyes. He brushed his thumb tenderly on my rock-hard nipples. He again caressed my neck, my collarbone, my cleavage, and under my breast. My nipples yawned for his lips. James was so tender with me. He treated every part of me like it was fragile goods. My hands and fingers got an equal amount of kisses. While he was caressing my body, my hands were aggressively pulling the buttons of his shirt. When I was sure that I had taken everything off, I pulled his shirt off. I was left only with my panties while he was left with his trousers on. James kissed my nipples.I moaned out in pleasure. A pleasure long awaited. He then continued to suckle on my breast. I placed my hands over my mouth and began to moan softly. The kids were light sleepers. James made sure my nipples got what they wanted. He was already so hard. His erect penis was resting on my abdomen. Oh! How impa
I was exhausted from the workload at the office. My feet were tired and my hands were feeble. However I worried about my kids. It's true that they were with their babysitter but for some reason, I felt restless. I tried to get my mind off them at least till I was done for the day. I had just one hour before I got off work . My mind was preoccupied and restless. "I'm probably just stressed out because of Aiden's incident." I muttered. The thought of going home to them injured made me shudder. "I will just call Nancy to check. " I picked up my Phone and dialed her number. It kept on ringing for minutes but I got no response. The ringing phone only made me more anxious. Nancy was responsible and cautious when It came to my children. Yet I was unable to settle down. I hurriedly sorted out the files on my desk. Quickly but carefully. Soon I was done. I picked up my bag and left the office. It was exactly 5pm when I left the office. The drive from the office to my
*** At Kelly Medicals***" So he really didn't leave any clue?", I wondered as I continued searching through some of Dad's files. " There's gotta be something, some document or record somewhere", I muttered while I kept on searching. " Dring! dring!", my phone rang as I was sorting out some files. " Urrghh! Who is it now?", I murmured as I picked up the phone from the desk. It was Jared. " I wonder what it is this time", I thought and then picked up." You imbecile! You took her, didn't you?", his voice blared out from the phone, making me pull it away from my ear." What are you talking about?", I asked." Don't play dumb with me asshole! 'cause I ain't buying it", he said." Look Jared, I don't have time for this okay? Unlike you, I've got work to do", I said." Oh that's rich! Really rich! coming from a crook like you", he yelled." Like I said, I'm busy", I responded and was about to hang up on him." Why can't you leave Janet out of this?", he asked, " you're taking this too far
*** Abandoned Skatepark with lots of Graffiti***" Dude, I don't think this is a good idea", Dave said." Man fuck that! Ain't no way I'm gonna let him go just like that", I said." Alright man, I ain't gonna argue no more. Let's just do this quickly before we get into any more trouble", he said as he picked up his baseball bat." That's the spirit!", I said and gave him a smack on the shoulder." So what's the plan anyway?", Dave asked." Well, I got some intel that he usually comes here in the mornings to do some "private business" ", I emphasized with my fingers." Private business?", Dave asked." Yeah, I think it's got something to do with crack or so", I said." Oh that's nasty! So he's a geeker?", he asked." Yeah prolly", I replied. Just then he walked into the park, strolling over to a bench nearby. " That's him right?", Dave asked." Yup, that's him alright", I replied, " now let's go teach his ass a lesson", I said as I picked up my metal rod. Then I and Dave walked over t
*** At the abandoned Amusement park***" No please! Don't kill me!"" Shut up!", I interjected as I knotted my belt around his neck quickly strangling him to death. " Hwweewww", I exhaled out of my mouth as I wiped off the sweat on my forehead with my forearm. " That's all of them", I said as I looked around at the bodies on the ground. I turned around and looked at my car, dented with marks of ricocheted bullets all around. " Geez, that'll need quite a lotta work", I said as I walked towards the door. " Krrrkuh", I heard a gun crackle behind me. " Put your hands where I can see 'em now!", a voice ordered from behind me. " Who are you guys anyway?", I asked the person behind me." That's none of your business. Now put your damn hands up where I can see 'em", he ordered. " Fine", I replied as I raised my hands up." Good, now turn around and get on your knees", he ordered. I turned around and looked him in the eye with a smirk on my face." Get on your knees now!", he ordered. As I
*** On the road at night ***" Wait, you're not at home?", I asked Madison on the phone as I drove." No, I'm staying with my brother in-law and my sister", she said." But I'm on my way to your....You know what? Nevermind. Can you text me the address of your brother in-law's house?", I asked." Alright, I'm sending you the address right now", she said." Okay, I'm on my way", I said as I tapped on my earbud to hang up. Then I turned the car around and began to head in the direction of the location, which popped up on my GPS monitor.______________________________________________*** At the Royal Resorts***" Okay, I've gotta admit, that last part was quite funny", I said with a chuckle." See?,I told you it was a great show ", Jeremy said with a satisfied look on his face." Well I wouldn't particular call it great, but I guess it's okay", I said with shrug." Oh yeah? I'd like to see your idea of quality television", he said as he passed me the remote." Oh I'll show you", I said
*** At Justin's House***" She's gonna be alright", the doctor said as he finished injecting her, " Though she'll probably be asleep for about an hour or two", he added." Thanks a lot doctor", Justin said, " but what about her memory? Is there anything we can do about it?", he asked." Apparently, it'll be best if we let the memories return on their own, unless we would be willing to risk shocking her into a stroke or a coma", said the doctor." Exactly when should we expect her memories to return?", Justin asked." Well, it depends on the circumstances around her. Just try to let her be around things and people that she knows really well. It'll help jog her memories", he said, " for now, let's just let her have some sleep", he added." Will do doctor. Thank you for coming", Justin said as he led the doctor out. Meanwhile, I rolled my wheelchair to her bedside." Izzy baby", I said as I rubbed my palm on her cheek, " you're so pretty even when you sleep", I said with a smile. " Aunt
" Let me out dammit!", I yelled as I banged the door, " I gotta go save Janet", I said now leaning my back against the door as I slowly slid down into a crouched sitting position. " Knock! knock!", someone knocked on the door. " Who is it?", I asked as I hurriedly got up on my feet, " please let me out of here", I pleaded." It's me Justin. I'm coming in", he said as I heard the door unlock. As soon as he opened the door, I tried to make a run for it. Expectedly, I got caught easily." Calm down Izzy, you don't know what you're doing", he said with his hands around my waist. " Unhand me, you perv!", I yelled as I tried to break free from his grip. He let go off me and I took a few steps backward. " Don't you dare lay a finger on me or I'm telling my husband", I said with my index finger pointed at him." Humph!", he sighed, " well I can't really blame you, can I?", he said with a smile as he stared into the distance. I could see the emotions in his eyes. " Anyway", he said as he snap
" You say she went out when?", the cop asked." I don't really know when, but it was in the morning", I said." What's her name?", he asked." Janet.... Janet Kelly", I answered." And you say she went out with a guy?", he asked." Yeah, her friend, though I think they're secretly dating", I said. He scribbled something down in a book." Any chance you know the name of the young man?", he asked." I can't really remember", I said." Humph", the cop sighed, " Are you sure you even know anything about her other than her name and the fact that she's your sister?", he asked." Frankly speaking, no. She's way too secretive about what goes on with her" , I replied." Alright, I'll draft a report and we'll begin our search in the morning okay?", he said as he arranged the paperwork on his desk." Tomorrow? what if she gets hurt tonight?", I asked." I'm sorry sir, but with the sparse info you've given me, there's nothing we can do till tomorrow morning", he said." Dammit!", I cussed as I ra
“ Urrghh", I groaned as my eyes opened slightly and I tried to sit up." She's awake sir! she's awake!", I heard some ladies shout, their voices diminishing as they ran out. " What's all the ruckus about?", I thought as I opened my eyes, blinking quite a couple of times to clear up my vision. " Where am I?", I muttered as I looked around, surprised at how beautiful yet familiar the place looked. Then suddenly I remembered what happened on the way to the grocery store. " Oh my god, Janet!", I exclaimed as I hurriedly got off the bed. " Those men must have taken her", I muttered as I walked towards the door. Just as I was about to reach out for the doorknob, the door suddenly swung open. " Oh my god, Isabelle!", he said as he pulled in into his arms. I was about to struggle but his hug felt so warm. " I missed you baby, so so much", he said in a jerky voice as though he was holding himself back from crying. He looked just like the man from my dreams. " I'm sorry, but who are you?",
** On the road***" Vrrooom!", my engine roared as I sped along the highway. " Dring! dring!!", my phone rattled the air with it's ringing. " Stop calling dammit!", I yelled in frustration as I drove as fast as I could. I tapped on my wireless earbud and picked the call." Calm down Maddie, you can't go alone", Justin said on the phone." Well we don't have time to wait for the cops. She won't be there by the time they get here", I said to him, " and I simply can't take that chance", I added." But it'll be better if..... beep!... beep!... beep!", he was saying before the call got cut off. " As if I'm gonna let this chance slip by", I muttered as I stepped on the gas. ______________________________________________*** At the Police Station***" Dammit! The signal's jammed", I said. " We ready sir", the Chief of Police said." Alright let's move out now, we've gotta catch up", I said. " Alright men, let's move out", the Chief ordered. I got into my car and drove out while the rest
