TIFFANY "What's a relationship without trust?" I asked Jake.He smiled, "As I said, a relationship needs trust, I couldn't agree more. But that doesn't mean you should turn a blind eye to certain things. Like the issue I just raised.Dass' family members were not present at his wedding and I think that should get you thinking deeply about what happened."I sighed, "Well, let me explain the dynamics of his family's relationship. Dass is an adopted son, he spent some parts of his life in an orphanage and was later adopted by his parents.Later they had a son and Dass became the unwanted mistake in the family. So he basically grew up in an environment where he wasn't loved or wanted.When he took me to his parents, to get to meet them, I could tell that they didn't love him.They merely spoke to me out of courtesy and even when they came over to meet my parents too, they just did it so they would get him off their backs. They never wanted to be involved in the wedding and they've not re
TIFFANY I ran into the room and decided to change my dress. My heart was racing so fast that I could barely control it. I still could not believe I was going to see Dass so soon. Jake was really reliable and choosing to work with him was a wise decision.I wore black jeans, a green tank top, and, a black face cap to conceal my face. From the way Jake describedthe club, I figured it would be a bad idea for me to get spotted or recognized there.When I came out, I noticed Jake had not changed up and was still working on his computer. "Shouldn't we be leaving now?" I asked him. "I mean, if we delay, we might miss Dass."He nodded, "Yeah, don't worry, just give me a few more minutes. I need to send a report right now. You know I'm going to be away from the company for a while, so I need to take care of this.""Can't it wait?" I asked him. "Come on, you're still in your singlet and pants. Just put on something for the club and you can get back to this when we're back."He finally looked
After Jake finally forwarded the report he had been working on, he got up and changed his outfit, putting on jean pants and a t-shirt while holding his jacket in his hand. He normally would have left his work and gone to meet Dass but he could not do that. There was an important meeting to be held the next day and because of helping Tiffany with her problems, he was going to be unavailable for the meeting, so he had to make sure everything was prepared and ready so the important contract he had been working on would not be lost.When he came out of the suite, he was surprised when he could not find her. He decided to go downstairs thinking that she would be waiting around, but still he didn't see her.He called her number repeatedly but she didn't take his calls. He recalled how impatient she had been and figured that she must've gone to the club.He sighed, massaging his temples, "What is wrong with you, Tiffany? Why can't you be patient?"He got into a cab and asked the driver to t
When they arrived at the suite, Jake took Tiffany straight to her room and placed her on her bed. She hugged her knees and tears continued to fall from her eyes. Seeing her condition, he became even more angry and yelled, "What the hell is wrong with you, Tiffany? Why won't you listen? Why are you so stubborn? Look at what happened, the Dass you ran to go and meet, did he come to your rescue? Did he help you?All I asked was for you to wait for a few minutes. You wouldn't have even known Dass was in Vagas if it weren't for the man I asked to tail him. I told you I had someone keeping an eye on him and we were going to get to him. Look at what you did to yourself. If I hadn't gone in there when I did, what would have happened to you?Tiffany, I understand that you love Dass, but that doesn't mean you would neglect your well-being. What happened to your senses? What happened to you? Tiffany, I know you used to be tough, smart, and have good judgment. There are places you walk into comf
JAKEI didn't understand what was going on. Having Tiffany so close and wanting me while in her birthday suit was the greatest temptation I had ever faced.More than anything, I wanted to take her right there and make love to her until she knew only my name but it didn't feel right, and when it came to Tiffany, I could not do her wrong."I love you," she whispered and tried to kiss me again but I caught her hands.She struggled to break free from my hold but I refused to let go. My heart raced uncontrollably as I asked, "What did they do to you, Tiff?"I finally let her go and got up, completely moving away from the couch. I had gotten a boner and my desire for her was at its peak.Nevertheless, I turned my face away from her as I tried to figure out what to do. It was already very late. However, I couldn't keep her with me. It was too dangerous.She suddenly hugged me from behind and my breath got caught in my throat. I turned and stared at her.Against my better judgment, I whispere
JAKEI was tired. I hadn't gotten enough sleep and Tiffany wasn't a child, so I wasn't going to spend my time searching for her. I took a cab and went back to the hotel. As I slumped onto the couch in the living room,I heard a voice from the bedroom and got up."Tiff?"I walked toward the room, stood by the door, and heard Tiffany's voice. She was crying. I suddenly felt bad about the things I had said to her and walked into the room. When she saw me, she covered her face.I walked up to her, sat on the bed beside her, and pulled her into my arms. I stroked her back, saying, "It's okay. It's okay.""No, it's not okay," she replied. "I am so ashamed, I can't believe I tried to cross the line with you. How could I have done something so.....""That wasn't you, okay? The doctor said those guys drugged you. You were most likely not in your right senses and that's why I took you to the hospital. Don't think too much about it, okay? I shouldn't have said anything, but it's just that I d
TWO DAYS LATER"How do I look?" Tiffany asked Jake as she stood in front of him, dressed up. He smiled, "You look good enough for the party.""Thank you," she replied.Her heart was racing. This time, she promised herself that she would not return without Dass. She was putting on a black sexy gown with red lipstick and light makeup on her face. She wore her favorite bangle, the one Dass had gotten for her as a gift.It was a masquerade party and she had gotten just the perfect mask.It was more or less a match with that of Jake because she was still trying to keep a low profile. She didn't want anyone to recognize her at the party. Jake's source had been the one who told them that a masquerade party was going to be taking place on a cruise ship. He had seen Dass' name on the guest list after tracking him for a few days. In fact, during the past two days, she had felt as though she would not get the opportunity to meet Dass again, as they did not get any news from Jake's contacts, b
Tiffany looked all around but she couldn't see Dass and the tears rolled down her cheeks. She suddenly spotted a shadow move and quickly turned her attention. It was towards the edge of the ship. She ran towards the edge, screaming, "Dass, Dass, hold on."However, when she got there, she didn't see anyone. She looked around and sighed, "Dass, where are you?"She felt a knot in her stomach, even with the cold hitting her skin she still felt that everything would be fine once she saw Dass.When she still couldn't find him, she squatted and began to cry."Who could be doing this to me? Who doesn't want me to be with Dass? I know he saw me and if he keeps running what am I supposed to do? The mere fact that he's running means he's scared. Someone is definitely after him. Oh Dass, where are you?"At this time though, Jake who had been chasing after Tiffany came out to the top of the ship, he began to look around for her but could not find her because she was squatting at the edge of the sh
MIRANDA The expression on the faces of everyone turned into shock. Seeing that I looked serious, the lady at the counter said, "Calm down, Ma'am. I will call Mr. Duke right away and inform him."At this point, a man walked up to the counter. From the way he was dressed and the way all the employees at the counter greeted him respectfully, I could tell he was a prominent figure.One of the employees picked up a card from a bunch on the counter and handed it to the man, saying, "Here's an invitation to the boss' launch party tonight. It's mandatory to show up with the invitation, sir."The man smiled and accepted the invitation card, saying, "Thank you, I will surely be at the party."As the man turned and began to walk away, I stared at the heap of cards and thought, "So that arrogant man is throwing a party, huh? I wonder how he would react if I gate crashed it. Would he send me back home just as I want?"I suddenly became excited as I thought about what I could do at the party."I'm
MIRANDA My so called husband stared at me in shock and scoffed, "What effrontery!""Sammy, what are you still doing? Throw this piece of trash out of my house before I lose it."I rolled my eyes, "As if I want to be here! You must be crazy upstairs, which explains why you can't speak without raising your voice, old man. Pick on someone your own size and news flash, I would be more than happy to leave this place."A few other domestic staff had arrived at this point and they were all staring in surprise. The man looked at me in shock as though he could not believe I was speaking to him.He began to approach me and at this point, one of the domestic staff ran and stood in front of me. She seemed a little older than me and was beautiful too.Sammy tried to speak to him but he pushed him away. I folded my arms, feeling so happy that he wanted me gone. When he got close to me, the girl in front refused to budge. The man stared at her in surprise and it made me wonder who she was."Who the
MIRANDA I had no idea what was going on there but seeing the look on the faces of my family members, I got an uncomfortable feeling. The woman was about to speak, possibly to explain whatever the hell was going on, however, I did not give her the time to do so.I couldn't go through the back because my mum was right behind me, so, I passed the woman and bolted out the door. I stood outside briefly, and came up with an idea; rather than to Collins, I would run to my cousin's for the time being, until I understood what was going on. I heard footsteps behind me and began to run without looking back."Please, don't abandon us when we need you the most," I heard a familiar voice and stopped.My mom walked up to me and turned me so I could face her. Tears kept falling from her eyes as she cried, "Please, Mira. Go with the woman and do whatever she says. This is the only thing I have ever asked of you.""That's a lie, mom," I replied. "You've asked me to do a lot of things over the years. T
MIRANDA I stared at Collins' departing figure and thought, "You'll change your mind once I get back, Collins."I continued running to the road to get a cab. I could not stop worrying that something had happened to my dad. My mom didn't seem like the patient when I heard her voice earlier. My elder brother, Sean, was strong and athletic so it could not be him also. This left me with my dad who had poor health from smoking when he was young and becoming hypertensive after we lost my sister. Once I got to the front of my house, I saw my mum pacing up and down. She stared at me in shock when she saw the way I was dressed. I had initially left through the back and planned to return through it because I wasn't allowed to wear such skimpy clothes and with good reason."Why are you dressed like a prostitute?" She asked angrily as she grabbed my arm and tried to wipe off the makeup on my face. She completely ruined it but that was the least of my problems."Mom, what happened?" I asked anxiou
MIRANDAI stared at my reflection in the mirror and nodded in approval. I looked really sexy in the short, black dress I had on. There was no way Collins would not go crazy if he saw me looking so hot.He had been my boyfriend for three years in high school and now we were both in our first year in the same college. However, he sent a breakup text to me last night.I couldn't find him all day in school but I learned about the party that would take place in his house. Even though I wasn't invited, I intended to gatecrash the party and give him the one thing he had been asking for.My constant refusal over the years was the same reason why he broke up with me but I loved him too much to let him go. If having sex with him was what I had to do to keep him, then I was getting laid tonight. I arrived at Collins' house a few minutes past six and saw that the party was in full swing. His family was well-to-do, so hosting a party such as that was a piece of cake for him, especially when his pa

LISAI reached out my hand in the morning to touch Adam but he wasn't on the bed. I opened my eyes and realized I was alone in the room.I sat up and smiled. I knew that Adam would be excited about the news I wanted to give him. From the moment I found out that there was a little life growing inside of me, I had been ecstatic and dying to tell him.However, I decided to give it a month and it was finally time. Since a month ago when Adam and I officially became a couple, he had been nothing short of sweet. He was the best man in the world and the one thing I wanted more than anything else was to spend the rest of my life with him.Our relationship had been drama-free and I couldn't be more grateful for that. At first, I feared that Clay had something up his sleeves, considering how much he used to hate Adam.Surprisingly, he had really made peace and now occasionally called to make light conversations with Adam. It made everyone happy, especially their Granny.I was even more grateful
ADAMAfter Lisa left, life felt boring. Reading her letter had been extremely excruciating, especially because I knew that my Granny had gotten to her.I couldn't even get upset with my Granny. I loved her too much, and I knew that she did what she did because she felt it was best for the family.I so badly wanted to talk to Lisa, to hear her voice even once, but I had to respect her wishes. It was the only way I could convince her that I really loved her.In the days that followed, I was forced to get along with Clay, who also seemed to have become very sad. At some point, I wondered if he genuinely loved Lisa, or if he was just upset that he did not have something to use against me anymore.Thanks to our Granny, we were forced to eat breakfast, lunch, and even dinner together. Each time we tried to miss anyone, she would suddenly become sick and create a scene. We knew her health wasn't too good, so we had to play along. I was upset with Clay, but a part of me still tried to forgiv
LISAI sat by the pool, feeling sad as I stared at the water.I was waiting for Clay's Granny, who had told me that she wanted to have a word with me.I was surprised by how Clay suddenly reacted. I thought I knew him. Even in the short time I met him, I didn't think he could be so selfish. I was so disappointed in him. But I was very happy, too, that Adam was not willing to give me up.For a moment there, I had been scared. As I listened to their conversation, I had thought that Adam would give in to his Granny's request, but he stood his ground. It meant he really loved me. His Granny soon arrived, and I smiled at her.She sat beside me and said, "Lisa, to be very honest, I have nothing against you. I've always been an open-minded person and I've always said that regardless of the girls my grandsons bring, I would give my blessings for them to get married because I want them to be happy.However, I want my grandsons to be at peace with each other, I want them to be happy and united
