OLIVIA.I woke up the next morning feeling sore as though I had run a marathon the night before. As far as I was concerned, I didn't visit any gym and neither did I do any strenuous activity so why was I feeling sore and tired as though someone had dropped a log of wood on me. And that's when you hit me about the night I had with Davion before this morning. We had both been caught in the world of our own desires and we gave in without thinking twice about it.I scan around my environment only to realise that I was sleeping down on the couch in the living room with a thick blanket covering my naked body. I was certain that he was the one who covered me up to sleep before he left. I was grateful that he actually took the initiative to leave because I wouldn't want anyone coming to know that he was in my house or to the night.I can't believe that we had both done what we did the other night. I tried my absolute best to resist him but I found it difficult to do. Mike is going to kill me
OLIVIA."Are you okay Olivia?" Davion asked when he noticed how quiet I have become ever since I got into the car and he started driving to work. I was known to always chit-chat or make a statement or two about something but my mood has been off ever since I saw the man I bumped into in front of my apartment in that taxi. I have no idea what he was doing there or how he managed to locate my house but it all sounded strange that I saw him again after I bumped into him yesterday. Was it just a mere coincidence or am I just putting two and two of what is not there?Another mention that I am still upset because that we on are we refuse to let me drive to work on my own and have insisted on driving me in his car. I have no problem with him driving me to work but the fact that his girlfriend was in town could only make things worse and complicate my life further.I am still reeling from the fact that we both had sex the night before and now I am seen in his car going to work. What would pe
OLIVIA.We arrived at work and before Davion could say anything else, I pushed the car door open and stepped out of it. I had been so eager to get out of the car ever since we started this journey and I'm so grateful that I had managed to do that. I have promised myself that I will try to be the bigger person and look past things but what he did was something that wasn't worth forgiving. The more I thought about it the more angry and upset it made me so instead of me to lash out on him in a cold and cruel manner, I think that it was better that I steal away from him completely and only talk to him about issues related to work."Thank you for the ride to work sir" I told him with a curt nod. "If it weren't for you, I probably would have come to work late because there was no cab around my area so early in the morning. I will make sure to let everyone know that you're such a kind and caring boss that takes good care of his employees. Don't worry, I'm not like you so I won't hold any in
OLIVIA.Mike patted my back softly as I wept silently. I cried for all the times I've wasted. I cried for my miserable life. I cried for the fact that I always ended up with the wrong people. I cried for my mother that was in the hospital. I cried for my father that was in the prison. I cried for always being a fool. I cried for the fact that I ended up with Clinton. Because if it wasn't for him then I wouldn't be here right now. He started the chaos in My Life. He lit the fire that was practically burning me up right now. And for that I will always hold him responsible for what he has done to me."Olivia I know that you're hurting and no I'm not going to side with you on this one but I'm going to be the friend that you need at this moment and console you." Mike patted my back softly."I'm not saying that what you did was right. I mean you literally had sex with someone's man but it wasn't your fault and I understand where all of this is coming from.""You still haven't let go and be
OLIVIA.I arrived at Davion's office and gently knocked on the door. I didn't want to be here but then again I had no choice. I was a male employee and he was my boss so I would have to report at all times if you needed my existence or wanted to see me for something important. Most times I wish that I never agreed to be his personal secretary. I should have fought to get another position as a sales manager or Media personnel so that we won't be able to meet eye-to-eye on certain occasions."Come in Olivia." He said and I twisted the doorknob open and made my way into his office. I found him busy working on his files but he dropped them immediately he saw me."You sent for me sir. Is everything okay or is there something that you want my help with?" I asked breaking the silence so that he stops staring at me."Oh yes." He conceded. "I was going through some files with Karla on our last meeting that was held with some of our investors. The one that you were late to attend."I nodded my
SABRINA.I hated the fact that the first person I saw when I came into Davion's office was none other than his glorified secretary or should I call it his fling that he was suddenly grown an attachment with. She was everywhere around him to the point that it was slowly starting to piss me off. I mean I had literally warned her to keep her distance away from him so why was she fawning over him like a lost puppy?Does he get the message that he is mine? Haven't I spelt it enough that he belongs to me? Why was she constantly trying to bring out the devil that I had triee my very best to bury inside of me? Just seeing her sitting down there already had my blood boiling to a hundred degrees. I felt like ripping her apart piece-by-piece till there was nothing left of her.I could literally tolerate any woman being close to him at this point but not just her and the fact that they both have history together wasn't really helping matters at this point. I wanted her out of his life and gone a
OLIVIA.I found it difficult to breathe after her revelation. I don't know if she was lying or trying to say the truth but whatever she was aiming at had totally worked because her news has just broken me to the core. At first I thought that I didn't hear clearly but when she has said it for the second time I knew then that she wasn't joking about it. The look on Davion's face also told me that he wasn't expecting such news as well. He looked shocked as though he will pass out anytime soon."Aren't you happy for me?" She asked excitedly while I struggled to keep the tears at bay. "I just told you that I'm pregnant. Why aren't you excited as I am?""You're pregnant?" Davion asked and she nodded. He darted his eyes towards me but I quickly averted my gaze so that he doesn't see how much did news has affected me. Just when I thought that I was finally learning how to crawl, this had to happen for the second time again."How come you're pregnant? And who is the father of the baby?"She g
OLIVIA.With blurry eyes and a heavy heart, I ran all the way back to my office and locked the door behind me. Inside the confinement of my own space, I broke down in massive tears and cried my eyes out. Every single emotion, every single pain hurts so much more than the last and it made me feel suffocated. Just when I was trying to get used to the lies. Just when I was trying to get my heart to understand and take it all in. Just when I was finally getting over his betrayal and learning to work alongside him, I find out that his fiance is pregnant as well.He has been sleeping with her with the intention of getting her pregnant and he knew. He knew that she might be pregnant which also means that their relationship wasn't as old as he had made me believe it was. If she was pregnant then it only means that they have been at it for a very long time and he had the audacity to tell me that it was nothing but a farcade?And I have been stupid enough to fall for him. Every single like tha
OLIVIA.SIX MONTHS LATER.It's been six whole months since the entire incident happened with Sabrina, her dad and my ex-husband. Sabrina and her father were sentenced to life imprisonment while Clinton was sentenced to twenty years in prison with no parole. My divorce with Clinton was officially successful and I got to receive half of his property and money. The evidence against my father was proven to be false and he was also released from prison as well. I visited mum to pay my respects and also tell her that I miss her alongside Davion.We had both decided to tie the knot after many ups and downs in our lives. I was excited because I would finally be getting married to love of my life and my childhood best friend. Mike's job pulled through and he left the country with Ezra. I later got to find out that they were in a official relationship with each other which was cute by the way. Davion promise to be by my side and he promised me forever. That accepted him into the family and he
OLIVIA.I had to say that it felt good to be back home after a these years. I felt refreshed and so alive that I had come back home. Davion and I were finally living together in his place ever since I came back from the hospital because I couldn't afford to go to mine after everything that had happened. My leg was healing slowly at its pace and everything could not have been better.The internet has been buzzing since the issue of my kidnap and who was behind it came to light. Davion's proposal for me had also gotten a whole lot of feedback. While people still trolled me by calling me names and bringing my divorce into the mix, some people actually supported and rooted for our love. I had told Davion that we needed to take things slow with each other because I wanted everything to calm down and the dust to settle."You're up?" He said walking into my bedroom. I had requested for a room of my own because I didn't want to share a bed with him. At least not yet and he was understanding
DAVION.Sabrina is shocked at my outburst and I could see the fear and worry in her eyes. She probably didn't expect me to say such in the presence of everyone gathered here but I don't care less. She has been using me as a puppet and it's finally her turn to be one."Davy what are you doing?" She asked, holding me by my arm. Her eyes opened wide as she looked around the crowd of people gathered who were muttering incoherent words at my outburst. Everyone was quite shocked and confused as well."You signed a contract and you promised to do this." She said through gritted teeth. "Don't embarrass and do the right thing Davion otherwise, you won't get to see the woman that you claim to love anymore."I chuckled. "I'm sorry Sabrina but this time, luck is not in your favour and the game is on you. I believed that you have done so much to ruin my life already so it's high time for you to face the damn music and you are going to face it head on."Her eyes widened and almost popped out of th
SABRINA."There all done" The makeup artist dad had told to make me up said to me. I felt the tears coming out from the corner of my eyes."Don't you want to see how it looks?" she asked again but this time placing the mirror in front of me. I took it from her and stare at my reflection in the mirror. Who would have thought that I will be getting married today and to the love of my life ever since we were little? I have always dreamt of this day and is finally becoming a reality for me.Most people might think that my life is being ruined because I am not getting married to love of my life but I can always say that my life has been nothing but beautiful at this point. Davion might not love me but at least I was finally getting married to him. He was finally going to be my husband after all of these years dreaming and wishing about it. It was finally becoming a reality and I can't help but smile at the outcome of everything.There was a time in my life when I wanted to get married to
DAVION.DAY OF THE WEDDING.I stood in front of the full length mirror as they adjusted the collar to my tuxedo. I can't believe that all my efforts to find Olivia these past few days has been futile. I have not been able to find anything about her and Sabrina had not slipped or given out a clue even by accident. It's as if she was being extra careful with everything.I even tried to fake date her so that she at least lets me know what was happening around her but her lips had been sealed shut. The more I thought about it the more frustrated I became. There was no escaping this one anymore because I was already tired on the spot and there was nothing I could do to free myself from this bind."Is the suit okay to your liking sir?" The man in charge of dressing up asked and I glared at him angrily."Do I look like I care if your suit is okay or not? I do not even want to be here in the first place neither do I care if I have to walk to that place in rags so please just do what you're
SABRINA.I am so happy that Davion had finally accepted that we are going to be together. I don't want to tell him this but I plan to stage Olivia's accident after our wedding so that he won't be able to talk to her anymore. At first I wanted to release her but when I thought about it, I decided against it. If I should release her then he would always find a reason to meet up with her and I won't have my shot at a happy ever after for myself so I will have to eliminate the threat if I am supposed to make things better for myself.My father has been right all along. Letting her live will only complicate things and I won't be able to get a grip of my home if she still alive and breathing so in order to secure my family in the future, I will have to make sure that she is no longer alive.I will make the Davion believe that everything is okay and immediately after the wedding, I am going to release her on on the way, I'm going to plan with someone to kill her so that no matter what happe
DAVION.I arrived at Sabrina's mansion with a box of chocolate on one hand and a rose petal on the other. There is only one way that I know on distracting Sabrina. It's giving her my undivided attention. And the only thing that she has ever wanted was to be with me for the rest of my life without anyone interfering and that's exactly what I was going to do. I am going to make her crave me to the point of utter madness where she would be to occupied to even think about Olivia. So that the investigator and Mike will be able to do their job in trying to locate her.I am right at the front door and security welcomed me in. I'm guessing that she had already told them not to stop me at the gate should in case I come to see her."Where is she?" I asked one of the maid who had come to usher me inside the house."Madam is in her bedroom but I will call her out for you." I nodded my head and she quickly rushed off to do as she had said. Few minutes later, Sabrina rushed down the stairs and flu
OLIVIA.I woke up to the sound of indistinct chattering. What's that smell? I feel like I'm about to throw up. I slowly opened my eyes but blinked severally to adjust the rays of sun passing through them. For how long have I been asleep? Did they drug me again? I opened my eyes tiredly. It took me a minute or two to realize that I was still in the cell looking cage where they had locked me up. My head was throbbing badly. it felt like someone was pulling a saw through it. I tried to move my leg but winced when the wound from the bullet shot through my veins.It has been five days since I was brought here. The people who kidnapped me has refused to tell me anything about my captor or who had sent them. I had spent the last few days shouting at them to at least let me talk to whoever was behind it but they refused. They kept on insisting that I was going to rot in here.I have never had any issue with anyone so I don't see a reason why someone will try to kidnap me when I have done ab
DAVION.I was still talking to Mike when they all arrived. If I didn't know any better, I'd think that they all came together judging by how they trooped into my mansion one after the other. Mike and Finne must really care about Olivia. When we were friends, he was always buried in work and never tried to make out time for anything but he was here today because I had mentioned Olivia. Does he really have feelings for her? Was she considering to be in a relationship with him before she was kidnapped? Does she like him or better question, are they planning to be together?"You called us all here?" He said out loud. "I know that it's about Olivia but why are we all here?""You're all here because I need your help." I said in a straight-forward manner without mincing words. This was already beyond me and I can't waste any more time thinking about the ifs and buts of anything at the moment. The main priority at the moment was figuring out where Olivia was and bringing her back to safety a
