Musa's had three large bungalow in his compound. One was occupied by his wives, the other by his kids and the third belonged to him. Since he had just gotten married to Cookie, he took her to the third bungalow as he was getting ready for their honey moon.
Cookie was kept in a room after bring introduced to Musa's family. She didn't care to know their names or count how many children he had, she kept her head hung low for all the time but she was sure they didn't like the fact that their father and husband had brought in another wife. She didn't blame them, if Mr. Oyin had done the same, she knew she'd been unhappy with him.
The room door she was currently occupying flew open and in came Musa. He had on a cunning smile as he approached her.
"My new wife," He called out as he reac

She was lucky enough that Louisa's parents were away and the men who constantly came in search of her couldn't find her.Louisa treated her like a sister. She had with her the little money her parents gave her before they travelled and she didn't mind spending it on her best friend. The only thing that bothered her a few times was long were they going to continue this? How long was Cookie going to keep hiding? Louisa kept asking herself but got no answer. She took some money and decided to go to the market and buy some groceries.Whe

Delta state, Nigeria (Cookie)Cookie's eyes flicked open the next day. She jolted when she became aware of her surroundings. She was sitting on a medium sized bed. She didn't know how she got there but she was sure the person who had carried her there was nice because they covered her with a thick blanket.Looking around, she saw that she was in a small room with cream walls and titled floor. There was a brown wardrobe at one end, a chair and a table that looked like it was used for study at the corner of the room. There was also a flat screen television pinned to the wall, a white bulb stood in the middle of the ceiling shinning brightly almost blinding her vision at first when she looked at it. She squinted her eyes then heard the room door open

Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie.)"Good afternoon her majesty," they all greeted as they sat down at the dinning table to have lunch with Queen Beatrice Eze, who arrived some hours ago with her eldest son, Prince Nonso Eze."Afternoon every one," Queen Beatrice greeted back with a light voice. "The king could not make it here because he had some meetings to attend to with the village council, but he sends his regards to everyone, especially to his son in-law to be Fabby." she informed.Fabian smiled like he just won a trophy.Cookie like Amanda's family. She finds them welcoming and nice but when it comes to Amanda, it was a different story all together. For the past few days she'd lived here, she had been able to avoid her.

Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie) The exams were tough. So many students were caught trying to do malpractice and this sent Cookie the chills. Her eyes were hurting so much she could not even look at the screen of the computers at the examination hall. It became worse when she began to have throbbing pains on her head. She was definitely feeling sick. After the exams, students littered around, buying snacks and discussing in groups. Cookie waited for Prince Nonso to pick her up. While she did so, she paced around for a while, feeling uncomfortable. She hugged herself and tried to remain calm. Nonso arrived with his car. He honked his car till he got Cookie's attention, making her rush towards the car. Even if he had taken long to come, she was happy he had finally. She opened the door and hoped inside, the chilly air condition hitting her immediately she did."Good evening, my prince." Cookie greeted. "Good evening, my Cookie." Prince Nonso imitated, indirectly reminding her to stop calling

Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie) Cookie's scream of help vibrated through the walls as the guards carried her. She tried to break free from their hold, shaking, kicking and crying. But it was of no use. She felt disappointed and sad that Nonso, Gloria and Fabian were not around to help her out now that she wanted them to. Now that she thought of it, it was like people tend to hurt her whenever she was getting to enjoy her life and forgetting her past. When she'd come to Lagos to meet Fabby's fiancee, she'd never envisioned her to be a threat to her life or to be hot tempered, rude and unfriendly towards her. The confusing thing was that she had never done anything to offend Amanda that will spike any hatred she had for her now. If she had even done a thing to her, why not just tell her so she'd make amends instead of wanting to send her to that dangerous den? Only the thought of it made her to shiver and she was thinking that she'd shiver to death if not rescued on time. The guards dragged

Lagos, Nigeria (Cookie) Still a little bit shocked by the previous incident, Cookie went to her room's ensuite. She watched her face with the cool water running from the tap. She got a little bit lost looking at her reflection on the mirror. Cookie had big eyes, plump lips and a slightly pointed nose. She loved how dark and long her eyelashes were and how it made her eyes attractive.Cookie blinked her eyes severally as she wiped her face dry with her towel before she walked to the kitchen. There, she found Fabian cooking. She was surprised because it was either the maids in the house or Gloria that does most of the cooking. Speaking of Gloria, she had some work to do so she wasn't around. Cookie stood by the door, resting her back on the wall as she became engrossed with watching Fabian slicing the yam. Mr. Chef did not even notice someone staring at him. "Woah," Cookie finally exclaimed and that caught his attention. Fabian's eyes widened out of shock and he gave her a weak smile

"prepare yourself for this chapter."****I woke up with a slight headache the next day. I sat up on my portable bed while massaging my temple and squinted my eyes cause of the lights coming from the lights.Nepa keeps the light steady these days.. Maybe a popular politician is in town unless the lights would have been disco instead. On and off.I sighed and then looked around my room, suddenly remembering that the last place I was was in my living room. Funny thing I can't remember exactly what happened. Maybe it was because of the headache I was having that was giving me a hard time to think.How did I get to my room?I collected my phone from my nightstand, turned it on to see that Deardre had sent me a text which reads;I know that you are angry and you have every reasons

Or should I say, why will she do that?"I don't get you.""believe it or not Fabby.. This morning when I was getting ready for the wedding.. I saw Amanda standing close to the kitchen, whispering something and handing a black bag to her maid, Amaka.

Hey! Just wanted to say I love y'all readers. ❤***********I wore my one arm knee length Ankara gown, a flat shoe to match, tied up my brown extension hair into a bun, wore my glasses, my earrings, necklace, bangle and then a touch of lipstick on my lip.Nothing too much cause we were only going to Mrs. Okonkwo's to buy some beads just like the King had said.I touched my necklace, looking at my reflection on the mirror whilst admiring how beautiful I look.These are one of the days I just can't help but admire my own self. Self love is indeed the best love.I smiled broadly then a tap came to my door, starting me a bit. "who's that?""are you giving birth inside?" Tolu's voice told me."on my way."I imagined her rolling her eyes now when she said. "that's what you said like five minutes ago.

We all sat down at the large sitting room, listening to the king as he lists out some few things that needed to be done at the traditional wedding."father, don't you think it would be better if we buy clothes from the city?" Jordan questioned, same thing on my mind."no. That should be for the white wedding-" he turned to Deardre. "are you okay now?"She gave a nod but still replied with a shy smile. "yes my king.""good. I want you to resume cooking for me. You know how much I like eating your food." the king said with a wide grin on his face.She looked down, her blonde hair fell, covering the sides of her face giving that we don't see the pink shades that must've have appeared on her cheeks already. She was blushing."thank you."He then turned to me and my eyes widened a little. "you taught her well, God bless you for that. You will sure be a good wif

Something soft hit my head but I continued sleeping, then a nip on my skin followed by slaps on my poor leg but I just couldn't open my eyes, they were heavy with sleep.Then the unexpected happened, a pair of hands dragged my legs downwards, I struggled to stay on the bed as I gripped the sheets but it seems like my efforts was not enough because the next thing is i fell face flat on the floor."Ooowwwn!" I rubbed my nose, if I was white, my nose would have bled."Why did you do that?" I asked once I saw the annoying piece of shit.

"You can't get married to a white woman!" King Obi repeated in a much louder and angry voice.We all freezed in shock and fear that I think I was no longer breathing. I felt Deardre was about to cry so I gave her hand a little squeeze to encourage her."papa like I said, she is my choice and we have a son already." Prince Chinonso said in a more apologetic voice, like he was trying not to get offended by his parents reaction when he told them he wanted to get married to Deardre.We had arrived at the village an hour ago, we enjoyed the ride here. The village smelt of mostly cassava, it was Sandy and quite bushy with alot of kids singing and playing around.The palace was beautiful and big, more like everything I was expecting it to look like but I wasn't expecting King Obi to react this way.I was expecting Queen Obi or princess Amanda to react this way but not him."have
