Sarah's POVRosaline had all her hopes on me, and I wasn't going to let her down. “I asked her to stay with me. I was too bored” I explained. The bodyguard looked at me as though he was trying to find something fishy. When he realised that it was obviously going to be a waste of time, he sighed and walked away.We had to be quiet for a while to be sure that his footsteps receded away from my room. Afterwards, Rosaline exhaled heavily and placed her hand on her chest. “That was really close,” she said in a tone of deep relief.Finally, I was able to smile genuinely. I just needed somebody to make me feel like a human being, and the fact that I got to speak with Rosaline made me feel that way.There was no doubt she was really interesting to be around. “Thank you,” she said. My expression was filled with confusion as I turned slowly to take a look at her.“What's that for?” I asked confusingly.“I have always wanted to speak to somebody. It sucks to remain quiet without talking to any
John's POVMr. Greg had now proven that he was a hell of a case to deal with, and I made sure I prepared for this stage.With the aid of a remote, I switched on the television in the boardroom. His family displayed on the screen, and I watched closely to see his reaction. He was shocked. “What is going on?” He asked with shock.I had my men go over to his house and hold his family hostage. His three children and his wife were all under the mercy of my command. “You fool, how did you get to my family?” He asked furiously.“Calm down now. They can see you as well. You do not certainly want your children to learn how to use foul words” I said with a grin.“Stop this, Stones. This is business. We should settle this between us. Why do you have to bring them into this?” He asked. I had finally exposed him to his weakness, and all I could see was a man who was willing to comply.“You need to sign this deal. Don't think of calling the police on me, because the day I get arrested, your family
She had her usual deceitful look on her face. Rebecca was a lady who loved sex; she was down for anything and everything. Revealing my dominant nature to her wasn't hard. She was the best woman I could ever have. She understood me and accepted all my flaws. Before, I was a flawless man.All this fantasy existed until I caught her cheating with Matt. How she moaned and grabbed him always played in my head like a tape on repeat. I decided to punish her. I went home, made everything cozy, but I had other plans. I was going to show her she wouldn't get away with hurting me.After she freshened up, she met me in the playroom. I had everything lined up: the whip, cuffs, blindfolds, gag, collar, and leash. "Tonight's going to be fun," I whispered in her ear. "Yes, master," she responded in a seductive tone.I started by cuffing her, then proceeded to use the blindfolds. I took my time, and I knew she was in a hurry with the way her body moved restlessly on the bed. "Relax, my kitty; be a good
Repeated strikes against her body, and the whip kept leaving marks with each strike I gave her. She was already screaming and begging, but I wasn't going to stop at all. Not now, I have decided to make her feel miserable. After a while of flogging her mercilessly, I dropped the whip. I had already taken off my shirt to make sure that I had enough freedom to flex myself. She kept weeping, and her body was already filled with bruises, but that wasn't the end for me. “I am sorry, John, please,” she kept pleading in pain. I decided to grab a sit and have a little chit-chat with her. “I want you to tell me how you entered this building. I need answers!” I said. I needed to know if I had a breech in my security. “I had somebody on the inside. I used to be your girlfriend. How do you feel I wouldn't have access to this house?” She said while sniffling. I have another person to deal with. “So, you actually wanted to kill me?” I asked curiously. I needed to know why she came here exac
Sarah's POVI couldn't believe what my eyes just saw. I watched everything happen. I felt something weird. It was different from the feeling of disgust. I wanted to be the one in her position, I wanted him to do the things he was doing with her to me. Listen to yourself! I can't feel attached to a monster. He is ruthless, I must be out of my mind to be thinking this way, that’s definitely what’s wrong. I had to run back to my room and shut the door behind me when he noticed that I was watching, because I knew he would never have mercy on me. I curled myself up on the bed as I trembled in great fear. I had no idea what his plans for me were, but it was certain. He would never hear my pleas. “Open the damn door” he banged the door forcefully. I didn't give him a response, I just remained in bed and kept hoping that the door wouldn't open. He kept hitting the door until suddenly he stopped. I stood up gradually from the curled position I took on the bed and decided to walk towards t
John's POVI felt satisfied after I had made Sarah suffer from her mistakes. That should teach her a lesson not to snoop around .I walked into my room and my eyes met a really shocking sight. My room was a total mess. Somebody had entered my room and made a really big mess.I looked carefully and noticed that my documents were all scattered. I quickly rushed to confirm which one was missing. Fortunately, the document I had used to sign a contract marriage with Sarah wasn't there. I heaved a deep sigh of relief, when I noticed that my files were all intact.I had to get to the bottom of this. I angrily walked out of my room and called out to one of the security personnel to Come to my room quickly.“Yes sir” he said as he rushed into my room as fast as he could.“You didn’t do your job. My room is in a mess and it was that little witch that did this” I said angrily. He still had his head bowed down, while trying so hard to avoid eye contact with me.“I need to see footage from the ca
John's POVI made myself comfortable in Matt's sitting room. I knew it was awkward because I didn't come with any bodyguard, but come on, he doesn't have the power to harm me. I must commend him for his eye for arts and aesthetics. He really put them to use while decorating his sitting room.A few minutes later, Matt walked down from the staircase into his sitting room. Surprisingly, he didn’t have any company. I expected him to have his bodyguards walk in with him or Rebecca.“You've got some nerves man” he said as he took a seat on the sofa parallel to where I was sitting.“I don't have anything to be afraid of, I am actually here for business” I replied bluntly. My expression remained cold as ever. I wasn't here for pleasantries, and I love the fact that he understood that as well.“I don't like the feeling I am having now. I sense that you came here with a hell load of trouble on your shoulder” he reached for his cigarette and lit it up using a lighter.“I haven't come here for tr
John's POVMatt was afraid, I could see it from how his expression looked, like that of one who had seen a ghost, but I remained so at ease and relaxed. I had nothing to worry about. I just wore a soft smile on my face as I watched them drown in their fears.I heard footsteps coming closer to the door until it stopped. Matt's personal bodyguard didn't hesitate to shoot at the door immediately.After he stopped shooting, I saw blood slowly flow through the door, and then I heard the thud of a body on the ground. We all presumed that the man had died, so his bodyguard went ahead to have a look.He opened the door, and immediately, he was shot dead, leaving Matt as the only man remaining. My trusted bodyguard, Parker, was the man behind the door.He walked in immediately, and the remaining security personnel followed immediately. They handcuffed Matt, while Parker had me released from the chain. My plans had all plated out perfectly.I had planned to hand Matt over to the police, which w
John's POV“It's been a while man, where have you been?” I smirked.I was so excited to meet Raymond again. Raymond is the only real friend I've ever had in my entire life I never expected that I was going to meet him after we both graduated and parted ways.“Come on, John. You know how it goes in this world. I've been working so hard for the paper,” He replied.I chuckled. “Hell yeah! You look like you've been making quite an awesome amount of money. I mean, look at your ride, man.”Raymond smirked. “You mean that. That's cheap. Compared to all you have here.”“Don't be fooled,” I chuckled.Raymond leaned in towards me.“Who's the lucky lady?” He whispered.I paused for a while.“That reminds me. How about Stella? Did you both end up married,” I scoffed.Raymond smiled. “Of course we didn't. She's happily married to another man now.”“What happened,” I piqued.“We…It just couldn't work out. You know… The both of us,” Raymond sighed.“But, what about you? What about Rebecca?” He enq
Sarah's POVThe pain was becoming unbearable.It just kept replaying. The scene of how he just walked out that door without looking back.But there was no way I could blame him. My mother didn't give him a choice.“You should definitely blame him for being a coward,” Lily said.I lifted my heavy face and locked my eyes on her.“Don't give me that look. You can't sit here and be crying for a man that never fought to keep you,” She added.“You can't say that. You weren't even there to see that mum didn't give him a choice,” I replied.Lily hasn't been of help to me since I told her what happened yesterday.I mean, I expected her to sympathise and give me some emotional support.But she has just been trying to make John seem too bad before me.“I know I wasn't there when all this happened, but I expected him to walk through that door today. Did he?” She had so much confidence behind her tone.“You have no idea what that man is passing through,” I sniffled.“Stop crying. I need to get som
John's POVRight there, the decision was left for me to make.My gaze locked onto Sarah's weary eyes as she looked at me in anticipation.She was patiently waiting to hear what I had to say.“You know you don't have to listen to her,” Sarah said.Juliette didn't utter a single word.“I will take my leave now. You can have her. I guess this is the price I will have to pay,” I said bluntly.I alighted from the sofa and made an attempt to take my leave.But Sarah grabbed my arm. I turned, only for my eyes to meet her crying.“You can't do this to me,” She pleaded as tears came rolling down from her eyes.I looked at her mother, who remained on the sofa.But she didn't say anything. I didn't want to come in between a family.If her mother was going to see this act of mine, as proof of my love for her daughter, then I don't have a choice.I looked at Sarah as words eluded my lips.I just loosened her grip on me and left immediately without turning back.I entered the car, and the driver dr
John's POVI have been feeling so disturbed about the fact that Sarah's mother hasn't accepted me.So, I decided to take a leap of faith.I took the phone from her and picked up the call.“Hello ma,” I said.The phone line became calm for a while as I waited for a response from her.“You're a wicked man. I need my daughter back. What don't you understand?” She barked.“But we love each other. All we need is for you to accept our union,” I replied calmly.“I don't want to see her around you. Can't you understand?”Sarah made an attempt to express her rage to her mother, but I signalled her to remain calm.I heaved a sigh of frustration. “Let's meet up, and then we can talk about this again. You will pick the location.”Her mother hesitated. “My house. I'll be waiting to take my daughter back.”The line went dead immediately.It was certain now. The hatred her mother had for me was unimaginable.I thought it was something that would eventually subside, but this isn't the case.“Why do y
Sarah's POVThere he was, standing confused and yet called among it all.“Please, leave him alone. My mother has gotten the whole story wrong,” I urged the policeman.“I don't think so,” he replied.Suddenly, my mother came running in through the door. “Get that man arrested!”“No, don't do that. He hasn't even hurt me. We were just having a good time.” I struggled with the cops as they placed a handcuff on John's hands.But they pulled me away from him as I struggled to hold on to him.My mother just went ahead to hit John repeatedly with her handbag as he was taken out of the building.Shockingly, John displayed no form of resistance.He was just so calm as the cops took him away.My tears just poured like water from my eyes as I wailed in pain while watching the drag my lover away.This wasn't something which I planned to sit back and watch.“Get a hold of yourself, woman. Let's go,” Mum declared.I glared at her angrily. I wanted to show her how angry I was, but she was my mother.
John's POVMy excitement had turned to sadness in the blink of an eye.All my attention just turned from my beautiful wife , Sarah, to the television before me.Everybody had their eyes fixed on the screen to see what Sarah's mother was about to say.Rosaline, on the other hand, was still confused as to what we were looking at.But she just remained calm to read the room.“John Stones kidnapped my daughter. I need him to be arrested immediately. I can't sit back and…” Sarah's mother broke down in tears before the camera.Sarah quickly reached for the remote and turned the television off.“I can't let you continue watching that.”“Babe, your mum has taken this too far. I didn't expect this,” I said shockingly.Sarah was in shock as well.I could tell from her eyes that she was just getting so much pain from what her mother was doing out there.Sarah couldn't get a hold of herself anymore.She quickly rushed into the room and shut the door behind her.Rosaline tried to go after her, but
John's POVI was already feeling nervous.I knew deep down that Sarah was never going to allow me to do what I was planning to do, but her mother was desperate.“Speak up, young man,” Sarah's mother said.“I am sorry, ma. Like I said. I will tell you everything you need to know,” I assured her.Right now, she had all her attention on me, and she was ready to hear all I had to say.“I signed a contract with Sarah. I was the person who paid for your medical bills. It came with a price,” I started.“A contract? What was this contract about?” She asked.“A contract marriage. For one year,” I replied.Meanwhile, Sarah felt like dropping into the ground immediately.“So, this is why Sarah couldn't come back? She was certainly paying off this debt that she owed you.”I nodded in positive affirmation.“Sarah, you shouldn't have gone through this stress because of me,” she said.“I think I'll take my leave now,” I stood up from the chair.Sarah's weary eyes were locked onto me as we both gazed
Sarah's POVI couldn't seem to place why John had to interrupt the introduction. I sensed fear coming from him. Condition it be that he was scared of my mother having to frown at our relationship?My mother, on the other hand, looked quite suspicious. Her gaze on John was unwavering. “Mum, what's the problem?” I broke the silence in the room. Mum's face hardened. “I have seen him somewhere. But you're welcome anyway,” Mum said. I bet John was uncomfortable at this moment. He slowly sat on the sofa, with his instincts flared. “John, right?” Mum still pressed on with her suspicion. “Yes…Yes ma,” John replied. Mum's countenance brightened immediately, as if she recalled something in an instant. “That's right. You're the man. John Stones,” Mum said. Everybody was in bewilderment of what was going on. I couldn't tell what she was trying to do. “He's the man they said… He kidnapped you. Yes, he is the man,” Mum said furiously. She ragefully stood up from her chair and tried to
John's POVWatching a girl in distress because of me wasn't supposed to make me flinch. But seeing Sarah cry because of her made me pissed. That went extremely down to my nerves. “Can you stop?” I roared. Charles was enjoying the moment anyway. He couldn't help but just laugh and make fun of the moment. “I can't, man. You have to accept my offer. You don't have a choice anyway,” he boasted. He was really full of himself at this moment. The shooter was about to take another shot at the girl. “Stop!” I yelled. “What…What do you want?” “It's simple…” The next thing that followed was a collision. The door blew up, and the room was filled with smoke. I took charge of the opportunity immediately, as I rushed to where Sarah was tied. I took off the restraints they had on her hands and feet as well. “Untie her,” she urged. There was no time for unnecessary questions, so I quickly took off her restraints as well. “Freeze!! FBI!!” Those were the words I hcard as armed men wal
