LAURA“I’ll whip you one hundred times, Ricky. I don’t care how many times he chooses to whip you but for my satisfaction, I’ll whip you for one hundred times,” Bane said.“One!” He yelled as he struck Ricky with his whip.I stroked Ricky as well but he seemed to only react to my strike and not that of Bane.“Two,” Bane striked again.“Three,” Bane striked.“Four,” Bane striked.“Five,” Bane striked.“Six,” Bane striked.“Seven,” Bane striked.Oh no, I can’t see Ricky getting hurt this bad. I can feel whatever pain he is feeling right now and I can tell he’s fighting to stay alive. I have to do something, I thought.“Eigh—ouch!” Bane cried.Bane went for his eighth stroke at Ricky but I struck him before he did.“Oh my word! How could my hand slip in a time like this? I’m so clumsy. Oh my goodness, are you alright sir?” I asked, feeling remorseful.“What do you think you incompetent nitwit!?” Bane barked while holding his left cheek. “Can’t you see properly? There are light bulbs ever
LAURA“Alice?” I asked with a weak voice.“No, Leandrice. Of course I mean Alice you fool. Which other child are we holding captive if not Alice?” Bane said.“Ok boss. But you see, I don’t know the room in which Alice is kept.”“Come closer and I’ll tell you,” he ordered and I obeyed. “Alice is kept in the last room of the warehouse. Go and do as I have asked you to do with her.”“Sure thing boss,” I said while leaving.“Wait!” Bane ordered. “Don’t fuck this up, Zill.”“I promise on my mum that I won’t,” I said, fixing a salute.“Just get out of here before I lose my temper.”I left the room and hurried to where Alice was being kept.“Oh my word. I have to save Alice right away. Ricky can save himself,” I said while heading to the room where Alice was kept.I got to the room and there were two men standing in front of the door of the room. “Who are you and why do you have a scarf on?” One of the men asked.I cleared my throat and hazily coughed. “I—uh, I am Zill. Don’t you remember m
LAURAI shook my head and regained consciousness. “Ricky,” I called.“Yes Laura,” Ricky replied as he helped me up. “It’s me Laura. Are you okay? Can you stand properly?”“I’m alright Ricky. Alice is in that room over there,” I point to the room behind me. “We have to save her.”Ricky and I rushed to the room and tried the handle of the door but it wouldn’t open.“Goddammit!” Ricky cried.“Break the door, Ricky,” I commanded.Ricky kicked the door several times before the door opened up, then we entered the room. “Hey!” Ricky and I screamed at the same time.When we entered the room, we saw a man holding Alice against the window.“If you dare take another step I’ll throw her out through this window,” he threatened.“If your grip so much as loosen a little bit, I swear I’ll peel off your skin and boil your flesh,” Ricky grinned.“You’re in no place to threaten me Ricky. I have your girl and if you try any smart moves, she’ll get it. I’ll throw her out the window and I don’t care if y
RICKY“You bastard!” I shouted at Bane.The thug threw himself at me and I maneuvered him and threw him out of the window. I jumped out of the window and used his body as a support. I ran over to Melo and carried her in my arms. I turned to Bane but he wasn’t there anymore. He had run away.“Melo, why the hell did you do this to yourself?” I asked, wearing a sad look on my face. “Ricky—Ricky,” Melo said as she tapped my chest.“I can hear you Melo. Tell me what you want to tell me.”“Ki—Ki—ki—”Melo stopped talking and her hands went cold. She died.“Melo! Melo you can’t die! I’ll take out the spear, Melo. I promise you that I won’t let you die. I’ll take you to the doctor and you’ll be fine. C’mon Melo, stay with me. I need you to stay awake for me,” I said as I gently tapped her cheek. “Melo, please don’t sleep right now.”Laura placed her hands on my shoulder and shook her head. “She’s gone, Ricky. There’s nothing we can do, Ricky.”Laura said as she closed Melo’s eyes. “Rest now,
LAURA“Ricky! Ricky!” Cassey called and chased after Ricky.“Have you heard the truth now and are you satisfied after listening to it?” I asked Qwen.“Do you expect me to believe the lies Ricky had just told? And if you do, I’m deeply sorry, I don’t believe them. All I know right now is that you and Ricky are to blame for Melo’s death,” Qwen said.“Keep shut, Qwen. Didn’t you hear Ricky right now? Your friend’s boyfriend was the one that killed your friend. The name of Melo’s boyfriend was Bane and he was the one that killed Melo. Can’t you get that into your thick skull, you blockhead?” I asked angrily.“Don’t call me names, Laura. I don’t even know the man you’re talking about. Melo doesn’t have a boyfriend named Bane or any man in her life called Bane. And if she did, she would’ve told me. So I suggest you stop making up stories right now,” Qwen said.“Making up stories? Really? If you were such a good friend to Melo, she would’ve told you about her secret boyfriend and how she and
LAURA“Andy and I would still like to thank you for bringing Alice back to us safely, Laura. We owe you a lot for this,” Cassey said.“Don’t say that Cassey. I take Alice as my own daughter and I would do anything for her. I would equally give my life to save hers. She’s very special to me,” I said.“You’re also very special to me, aunty Laura. But not as special as Mr handsome,” Alice said.Cassey and I giggled.“Ok Laura. We’ll be on our way now. Bye,” Cassey said.“Bye,” Alice waved at me as they both left the room.While they left the room I followed behind them because I needed a glass of water.I followed my chamber’s hallways that lead to the kitchen. I got to the kitchen and drank water before returning back to my room. Returning to my room, I bumped into Killian.“Can’t you see where you’re going?” I asked angrily.He didn’t say anything. He brushed his forehead and started to proceed like nothing had happened.“Wait!” I ordered and he waited. “Killian, I didn’t see you today
RICKY I rose up from the bed to check who was at the door. I peeped through the door hole and it was Qwen.“Qwen?” I whispered.“Who is at the door, Ricky?” Laura asked.“It’s Qwen. I think she knows that I’m inside your room,” I said.“That isn’t my business to know why she’s here. Put on your clothes and go attend to your late wife’s friend,” Laura said, wearing an uninterested look on her face.I sighed to relieve the frustration I felt after Laura said that. I hurriedly wore my clothes and left her room. “What have you been doing inside Laura’s room, Ricky? Were the both of you mourning Melo inside there?” Qwen asked while following me.I walked straight and headed for my room like no one was talking to me. I ignored her till she hit my anger button.“Your Luna just passed away and you felt it would be a good idea if you celebrated by fucking her murderer—”“Qwen!” I yelled as I grabbed her neck and yanked her into the air.“Ri—Ricky,” she choked. “Was this how—how you killed Me
RICKY“Good morning, aunty Laura,” Alice greeted.“Good morning to you too, my little angel,” Laura greeted Alice as she opened up her plate and was about to start eating.“Wait!” I ordered her.“Why should I wait? I’m really starving here,” Laura said.Something is really off here. I can’t seem to put my finger on it, I thought.“I would like to taste your food before you eat it,” I said.“No. I’m really hungry and I want to eat right now,” Laura said.“I’m your bodyguard, ma’am. I have to taste your food first before you eat it,” I said with a straight face.“Stop this act, Ricky,” Laura lamented.“This is absurd, Ricky. Do you think the food was poisoned or anything?” Cassey asked.“I didn’t mention poison. Laura may be allergic to some of the ingredients used to make the food. And that is what I want to taste.”“Stop this right now! What do you mean by all this, Ricky? There is nothing in the food. And I made sure Laura wasn’t allergic to the food I cooked today. I made sure I avo
RICKY“I came back for my family! I came back for my pack, my sister and the woman that owns my heart!” I said. “You won’t know all this because you don’t love anyone, you don’t even have any humanity left in you. You can’t share love with anyone, you can only hate and if you hate, hate will always come your way.”“Quit lecturing me, I don’t want any of your lectures. They are no good to me. Go and give them to those who need them because I’m not one of those. Yes I did greedy things to get what I want. I only did them to get what my father couldn’t give me, the throne. Dad provided for everything we wanted in life but never the one thing I asked of him and that was the throne. I—”Cassey held onto Killian’s collar and pulled them while crying. “Why did you do this to me? I thought you loved me, Killian? What have I ever done to you to deserve so much hatred from you? Killian, I did everything for you. Literally everything. You were meant to be banished so many years ago but I pleade
LAURA“Cassey’s naked photo?” I asked myself. “Why would a visitor have this on his or her phone? This is really serious. I’ll have to confront this person. Let me check his room immediately. Room 09. Room 09? But room 09 is Killian’s room. How and why would Killian have such a photo on his phone? I have to check his phone immediately.”I went into my app and I was given access into his phone. I immediately went to his phone’s gallery and I saw a video. An organized slideshow of different types of Cassey’s naked picture was in Killian’s phone.“Oh my goodness! How the hell did Killian get his hands on such photos? And the most important question of all is why does he have these photos and for what purpose?” I sat on my bed as I gently stroked my chin while thinking.I can’t keep this to myself. This is a big thing and these very photos could ruin Cassey’s image and also her reputation. Why was this video saved to Killian’s phone if he didn’t want to use them for said purposes? That m
LAURA“Come in, Ricky,” I said.Ricky entered the room and whispered. “Laura.”I had oiled my body with sweet smelling lotion and all my curves could be seen clearly with the reflection of the moon.Ricky entered the room and slowly approached me with lust in his eyes. I couldn’t wait any longer for Ricky to begin the nights business. I was too horny to wait. I rushed to him .“Was Cassey telling the truth?” Ricky asked while looking into my eyes.“Forget about Cassey and kiss me,” I kissed him fervidly while slowly taking off his clothes.He moved his hands around my oiled skin as he made his way to my waist. He pulled me closer and the kiss became more passionate. “I want to make sure you are pleased properly. I will make you cum wearing a smile on your face,” I whispered into his ear.“You’re my woman. Therefore, I will please you and not the other way around,” he whispered.I grabbed his dick and slowly stroked it back and forth. “You like this, don’t you?” I whispered.He relea
RICKY“Alice?” I asked with a weak voice.“Yes! You got her name right. C’mon, try to figure out the context of this picture,” Killian said while wearing a happy smile on his face.“You monster!” I screamed. “Where the hell is Alice!?”“Why are you asking me such questions? I don’t know what you’re talking about. If you and I are here discussing, how could you think I know where Alice is?” Killian asked, smiling.I punched Killian across his face and he fell to the ground.He got up and started to laugh. “My dear brother, Ricky, it’s useless beating me up. That will only make matters worse, so I suggest we both calm down and try to figure out why exactly Killian did this.”“You knew that I would find out about you and expose what you have done to the pack, that was why you chose to kidnap poor Alice. This isn’t what I expected from you, Killian. Dad didn’t raise us like this. Dad didn’t teach us to kidnap or blackmail. Dad raised us with love and care. Though we didn’t have a mother,
LAURA“Oh my goodness, I’m so sorry, Laura. I was blinded by Qwen’s fake affection for the pack that I couldn’t see her true colors, yet I defended her when Ricky would get mad at her,” Cassey said.“What are you saying, Cassey? This isn’t your fault at all. I also got convinced that Qwen was a nice lady when she cooked for the pack,” I said.Cassey and I discussed it while walking to her kitchen.Cassey opened the kitchen door and we both entered.“Even after Ricky ate her food and fainted, I never suspected that she was behind it,” Cassey said.“I also never suspected her because Ricky had told me that it was an expired ingredient in the food that made him sick.”“The doctor also told me the same thing. Qwen must’ve paid off that doctor,” Cassey said. “You and Ricky did a wonderful job by exposing her. Do tell me how the both of you were able to trap her.”“Qwen poisoned my food and Ricky was able to find out because my food was dished out even before I got to the table. Ricky found
RICKYHow could—could this be? Why would he? I thought.Disturbing intriguing thoughts lingered through my mind.“No no no, my brother wouldn’t do such a thing. Why would he do this to me?” I dropped to my knees as tears ran slowly down my eyes. “I never thought this video was sent to me by a member of my pack, let alone my only brother—”Lucio entered the room and I rose up from my knee and wiped the tears from my cheeks.“Uhm—what are you doing here?” Lucio asked as he snatched Killian’s phone from on top of the desk.“I—uh,” I cleared my throat. “I came in here in search of my wristwatch. Laura told me that a servant had mistook it for Killians’ and brought it here. So that was why I came in here.”“Hmm….you’ve found your wristwatch, am I right?” Lucio asked, wearing a puzzled look on my face.“No, I wasn’t able to find it. I think Laura was mistaken and I don’t think Killian’s room was the room my watch was brought to,” I grinned as I left the room and headed back to mine. I sat
RICKY“Laura?” Qwen whispered in surprise as she rose up from me. “Uh—when did you get here?”“I’ve been standing outside the room the whole time,” Laura said as I rose up from the bed and stood in front of Qwen.“Oh my goodness. You are now able to move your body and you pretended like you were still paralyzed. Which means—”“Laura and I planned this. Do you really take me for a fool? You threatened that if I told Laura, you would kill her because I won’t be able to protect her because I was in a paralytic state. You actually thought of me as dumb because only a stupid person would feel threatened after you told me all that. Do you know who Laura is? You dare go open your mouth and say that you could kill her? Laura led an army and fought a war and also won it. Laura is literally a Goddess,” I said as I looked at Laura. “And even if I was paralyzed, I would have still killed you. I promise you, you don’t know how much power I possess. You think I’m just a mere werewolf. I possess anc
RICKY“I think that’s completely out of context here. You are trying to say that the masked man wasn’t Bane but Killian. No no, I think you’re mistaken. Killian could do many despicable things but not to kill someone. He would never kill someone,” I said.“I only assumed. I never said that he was the one that killed Melo,” Laura said. “Let’s forget about this topic. How are you feeling now? Do you need anything.”“I don’t need anything, Laura. I want to apologize for being such a burden to—”Laura placed her index finger against my lips and I stopped talking.“Don’t ever see yourself as a burden to me. You’re not a burden to me.”“Does this mean you’ve forgiven me?” I asked while looking into her eyes.“Shut up and sleep!” She ordered furiously as she went to bed.I giggled. One day you’ll forgive me, Laura. And that day is when you’ll know the reason why I chose to run away from the palace. I didn’t run away of my own accord, I thought.I closed my eyes and slept off.I woke up to t
RICKY “Remember that the threat against Laura’s life isn’t yet over. If you tell her about me, I won’t rest till she dies. You’re sick right now so there’s nobody to save her when next I attack. So I urge you to think before you speak,” Qwen whispered into my ear.“I asked you a question, Qwen. What the hell are you doing in my room?” Laura asked furiously.“Calm down, Laura,” Qwen said as she rose up from the bed. “I only came to see Ricky. I was passing by and I saw that he had regained consciousness so I thought it would be a good idea if I’d checked up on him. Ain’t that right, sweetie?”I frowned and didn’t reply to her.“Don’t enter my room next time without taking my permission first. Is that understood?” Laura asked while staring angrily at Qwen.“Oh relax, your majesty. I won’t come in here again. There’s nothing special about your room anyways,” Qwen said and left the room.“What happened to me, Laura? Why am I here and why can’t I make use of my body. I can’t move!” I shou
