The cold breeze blew right past me and I shivered as goosebumps began to grow on my skin.
I didn't know what time it was, but I knew it was too late. Too late to turn back, too late to go back to the hospital... Too late to go back to him.
It was a big risk I was taking to be walking alone in the dark, empty, narrow street.
Clouds were forming in the sky, it was about to rain in any moment. I did not have shelter or clothes or food. To be honest, I didn't regret ever leaving that house. Not like he had food to provide for me.
"Hey who's there." I felt my heart stop for a moment and when it finally started beating, it increased it's pace.

Him.My legs grew weak, everything and everyone around me became a blur, my attention was only focused on the person that just walked in.My father.He looked older than the last time I saw him but I could never forget that face. Bushy brows, rough lips, wrinkled face and slightly grey hair.He didn't notice me, which I was grateful for because I didn't know what I would do if he had seen me. His face was as cold as ever and he was dressed in a t-shirt and a black trouser.Memories began flashing back, the slaps, the whips, the scares, the pain....everything came all at once. Tears clouded my eyes, making it hard for me to see clearly but my focus was still on him.

~Elizabeth~He was fond of doing this silly thing, keeping me in suspense, wanting me to ask questions that wouldn't get an answer.I hated it. Right from day one, when I came for interview. He didn't tell me if I got the job or not. Just told me to leave. And I didn't receive any message for about weeks until he finally told me to resume that instant.Now he is going to the hospital my mum was and he isn't telling me why.Wait,My mum, what would happen if I tell her I saw my dad? She honestly doesn't need to know about that. Especially in her health condition. I couldn't do that to her. Just the sight of him made me weak, imagine what it'll do to her."We're here. Are you coming down or you'll just stay zoned out

~Elizabeth~Tears poured out of my eyes more as I watched my mum walk out of sight. I still couldn't believe all that was happening. She was finally getting what she needed. And I didn't spend a dime on it."Enough with the tears Elizabeth. It's getting uncomfortable." David finally spoke. That ego in his voice coming back to life. Making me think he was only nice when my mum was around.He turned and began to take his leave also signaling me to follow him. I wiped my tears and followed him from behind.I still had to thank him. I promised myself not to do anything to upset him for a while. Just do as he says. I opened my mouth to say something but then my phone vibrated, distracting my attention.&nb

~Elizabeth~Facing the wall, I stood still. The voice that just spoke to me remained silent. And none of us said or moved a muscle till I decided to turn around.I really hoped and wished I was just hearing voices and that the person was not who I thought about. But when I turned and my eyes landed on the man, I knew I was not just hearing voices."Dad." My voice shook mentioning the word.He did not deserve the name, he did not try to ever act like the name my entire life. But I still called him that. Because when you think of it, he was my father.I held unto my loose shirt and buttoned it back on then wrapped my hands around myself so he doesn't notice my recently shaking hands.

~Elizabeth~His parents house? Why he even thought about bringing me here was still confusing."Why're we here?" I asked, my brows furrowing."Let's just go in." He insisted, still pulling me in.I had nothing to say, actually there was a lot to say, I was just too weak to start talking. So I just watched him pull me into the mansion."Mum?!" He called out and it echoed. The house was massive. The hall way had a grass carpet on the floor with blue and white wall and framed pictures decorating the it along with a giant chandelier at the center.The place was so beautiful, I began to wonder how the living room woul

~Elizabeth~I stood there. Frozen on the spot, my eyes wide as ever, my head blank with thoughts. His lips were on mine. He kissed me. I let him get too close and he kissed me. I felt tears sting my eyes at this thought.Then he pulled away, but I still stood still, not knowing what next to do. My eyes met his and a wave of fear hit me."Y...you kissed..me.." I trailed off as my body shook."I-i didn't mean to...Elizabeth I...""I decided to trust you just a little bit and...you...and you take advantage of me." I interrupted as a tear drop managed to slip down my cheek."What! No never...I didn't...""You kissed me." The tears now didn't stop pou

~DAVID~I had been so restless, nothing seemed right, everything felt disoriented, I wanted to fix it, both at home and work, nothing got fixed.How I wanted her to just show up in my office this morning and greet me, I wouldn't mind if she had her usual fake smile plastered to her face. I just wanted to see her again, to talk to her, and mostly apologize.The fact she didn't come to work without a notice should've normally pissed me off, but I remembered firing her last night.It was one long night.If I could repeat it, I would change so much about it and avoid all these complications I'm experiencing."Hey baby..."

~MR ADEYEMI~FLASHBACK....I walked briskly into the bank, I had to deposit the bag of money given to me. It was big, but according to the person I was working for, it was little compared to what he had in store for me.My daughter was supposed to be here, with her boss, Badmus. According to what I heard. I was to quietly make her see me, without starting a conversation with her. And it was the easiest thing.She had so much changed, she looked more...mature, and a lot more confident. She looked pissed at a moment, probably had a bad day. But that expression didn't last long on her face, it changed immediately she saw me.It turned cold with fear.I pretended not to

~DAVID~ "Are you sure you're okay?" I asked her again. "You've asked me that like a million times. I swear I'm fine. I should be asking you." She smiled softly. "Just a bruised cheek. I'll be alright." I told her. "I'll need you two to report a..." An officer began to speak but Kelvin interrupted him. "No, if you need anything meet me. Don't spoil their love time." He pulled the officer away from us. "Love time." I said more to myself than anyone else. She made it clear she didn't want anything to do with me in that aspect. So I promised not to push it. "Are you coming back to work?" I changed the topic entirely. "Yeah, about that," she started and I groaned out. "I'm sorry, but I can't come back. I mean I'd love to but..." she trailed off. "But?" I asked her. "But I want to try

~SEGUN~"What Sandra?" I said to her. I really wasn't in the mood for her type of talks."It wasn't part of the deal." She said."What wasn't part of the deal?" I dipped my hands into my pocket."Killing him or molesting her." She replied and I rolled my eyes."When you put it that way," I started, taking my time to do a small laugh. "It's changes nothing. You shouldn't be dumb enough not to know that if we let any of them go alive they'll rat us out." I told her."But...""But what Sandra?!" I shouted."But David can't die." Tears clouded her eyes."Don't be a baby Sandra. Other guys are out there. Hotter and more wealthy than he is. You can just go for his brother or something." I told her but it didn't help her stop crying.I could care less about what she felt or thought. She was usele
ASSAULTED CHAPTER FOURTY TWO
~DAVID~He was the one behind all this. Of course he was. I just never expected it to be him. We barely met, even when we did, just a formal conversation. So what exactly did he hold against me?"Segun what do you want?" A sigh left my mouth. I wasn't too shocked at his presence. He was a pathetic human being. Everyone knew that. All I didn't understand was why he brought Elizabeth into it."Well, you don't seem surprised, especially for someone who has been kidnapped." He smirked and I rolled my eyes."You hate me. I get it, a lot of people do. Why bring her into it? She has nothing to do with you." I spitted out."She's just beautiful." He replied, sending a disturbing smile to Elizabeth."Can we be serious here?" I glared at him."Oh, if I'm serious then you're going to end up dead."~Elizabeth~
ASSAULTED CHAPTER FOURTY ONE
~Elizabeth~"What is going on?" I asked quietly but no one gave an answer. David and Beauty were so interested in whatever they were doing–looked like they were packing up. "Guys..." I trailed off, moving closer to them. It had just been two days since I arrived from the hospital, they both made sure I stayed in the room to rest and according to David, his lawyer was handling Becca. Apparently, the proof I had with me was a very big deal to help them finish the case with ease. "We have great news!" Beauty shrieked with a huge smile on her face but she never stopped what she was doing. "What is it?" I pressed on, hoping to be a part of the joy ride they were having. Finally she stopped packing the clothes on the couch and turned to look at me. "Your boyfriend here is leaving for Nigeria in few hours. Come help me chase him away," she replied, going back to packing the clothes that were obviously his."This doesn't give you a reason to bring your so called boyfriend into this hous
ASSAULTED CHAPTER FOURTY
~Elizabeth~Finally, my peace and quiet. Just void.No thoughts to think, no needs to worry about, no shame to be so afraid of. I rid myself of the world. They are bound to miss me but after a while they all would move on. It was best this way. "I need you not to die," A distant voice said. That's funny, I am already dead. It was all I ever wanted—not to be dead but to have peace. I had peace within myself and I enjoyed it. "I am not myself, I don't know what to do if you're not here to remind me," There it is again. That voice. I did not know who it was but it felt oddly familiar. They wanted me back. There was no way I could return, I made things worse for everyone. "Elizabeth please...."The voice again faded to thin air. That was it......Immediately, I was on a path with two ends. One led to where the faded voice was, and the other was more of my peace and quiet. What I had always longed for. I knew I didn't have much time to think thoroughly about it and what was b
ASSAULTED CHAPTER THIRTY NINE
David warned me, but as usual I almost never listened. The party sucked. Every other party I had been to was organized and mostly with less noise. This place was someone's house crowded by more humans than the place could contain and the music was so loud I felt my ears drums were going to pop out. Nothing they did here was moral, they drank and were mostly drunk, danced like whores and some of them made out at almost ever corner. It was like a typical teenage party only this time adults all over town attended it and behaved irrationally. Worst part is, I got separated from David since I came here. We had been here for almost an hour and he was nowhere to be found. It bothered me and I did try to look for him but I decided to stay put when some guys–men began to ask me to join them on the dance floor. I was in the living room, seated on the smallest part of the couch as other people sat beside me, shamelessly making out. I couldn't complain, he warned me not to go but I insisted a

~Elizabeth~"David get up. We are already late," I pouted trying harder to pull him up from the couch. "Is there no way I can change your mind?" He insisted to be settled on the chair, pretending to be interested in the series playing on the television. "We promised to go," I argued with him. "I know. But I've been to the party before and it never ends well," he looked at me for a moment but then turned back to the television. "Fine then, I'll drive myself there," I finalized. "You don't know the place," he gave me a smirk that did nothing to sooth me. "I'll use GPS. Or call Becca," I retorted with a hurl. "You don't have her number and I will not allow you get lost under my care," David rolled his eyes, making me narrow mine. "You are the most annoying person ever," I gave up, falling carelessly on the chair and slouching lower on it. I crossed my arms around my chest with a pouting face. We both kept mute for a little while longer. Turned out that he had the final say in th
ASSAULTED CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN
~Elizabeth~ He was just downstairs, patiently waiting for me to get ready. I was ready—not really. My dress and make up was perfect and on point but mentally, I was no where near ready for the date. It was not only impromptu, but was also my very first date with anybody. Then he decided to tell me out of the blues!"Elizabeth, it's been four hours and counting. Come out!" David yelled, making me jerk. Picking up my purse, I took one last glance at the mirror and headed out of the room without thinking any further. When I reached the living room, I found David seated on the couch looking bored as hell. As usual, he wore a tuxedo and it fitted him well."I'm ready," I called for his attention. He looked up at me, his eyes immediately giving me a once over. My face heated up but I enjoyed that a man was checking me out. "I told you the dress was perfect for you. You look beautiful," he complimented and I but my button lip so he didn't notice how shy I became. If I was a few shades l
ASSAULTED CHAPTER THRITY SIX
~DAVID~Her voice was nonchalant and quiet as she spoke, she held no emotions in her eyes and I knew instantly that she was mad in her own world at me. I managed to shove Becca away from me and grabbed the cup of coffee that finally reached me. "Elizabeth I–""She's the girl everyone in town is talking about," Becca interrupted me and I hissed, face palming myself. "Good afternoon," Elizabeth smiled plainly at Becca. "Good afternoon, you're more stunning than they say you are," she moved towards Elizabeth and I hated my life immediately."Thank you," she replied. "You two have to come to the club meeting," she told Elizabeth. I wanted to say no but I was willing to let her take the decision. As long it got me to take her out. "What club meeting?" Elizabeth asked with furrowed brows. She was mad yet she found it easy to compose herself, it was stunning. "It's for us old friends to meet up and possibly make new ones. Who knows maybe we could be friends," Becca explained. "Yeah m
