When someone has a happy thing going on, days seem to fly and the opposite is true too. When there is something troubling someone and they want days to just get a move on, they drag themselves like an old grandma going to the market or just walking her tired bones.For these two, it was really confusing which one and one didn't even know which to apply to who. For Denise, she wanted days to drag themselves so that she could have enough time to think and avoid seeing Ansel but time just didn't listen to her. One time, she was in the hotel room with Ansel when he confessed and then boom! Three days were gone and she knew Ansel was waiting for her answer.On the other hand, the same three days seemed to be dragging themselves without an end for Ansel. He wished that he was a god and had powers, or a cultivator and had powers to manipulate space and time. Three days would just be done in a blink because he would have done his magic and she would be here telling him her answer. He waited
The following morning, Denise woke up naturally and she felt refreshed. She realized that all she needed was a good night's sleep but the downside was that all the dreams she had had that night were all about Ansel. But she would rather dream about him than dream about anything else.The most vivid one she had was one about their wedding. She had said yes to Ansel and the next thing that happened was the wedding. The wedding happened on a beautiful big terrace of the biggest hotel in Xela and it was decorated beautifully and they had more than a thousand guests but Denise didn't know any of them.Her family wasn't there but she didn't expect them to be because in her memories, she hadn't invited them. She didn't want to invite them because she had an inkling that Georgina would destroy her wedding. She was wearing a long white flowing gown that was shaped like a fish that really accentuated her important parts and features making her look like a mermaid because it had a long shimme
After having a hard day thinking what to tell Ansel and making and cancelling lists, Denise had finally made her decision and she was just chilling waiting for the three days she had asked Ansel to elapse. She wasn't in any particular hurry to meet him or tell him anything. But it's like nature didn't want her to rest. Why? Because it was at that moment when she was browsing the net and relaxing that she received acall."Hello?" She greeted with a smile when she saw who the caller was."Denise, what did you do to my brother?" She was asked and at that, she gawked because she didn't do anything to him. Heavens knew that she hadn't even talked to him for two days now. What did the caller mean?That was Alex asking Denise through a call but Denise was lost for words.Alex knew her better than to think that she could anger Ansel in any way. She didn't have the guts to even if she wanted to.To understand the situation better, lets us go back in time, one day.After Ansel over thought
Denise had already invited Ansel to her place and she couldn't take back her words. What even surprised her more was that Ansel didn't even wait to be asked twice and he jumped at her offer on her first asking.She panicked at first and then thought that it would be a good moment to learn about him.If he was a down to earth man or those snobs. Whether he loved her for her or for what she wasn't.She decided to be herself before him and see if it would disgust him. If he showed even the slightest hint of disgust at the way she lived, the weighing scale would be tilted against him and he could go f**k himself.Hopefully he wasn't like that. She really hoped that all she had seen so far wasn't forced.Ansel, on the other hand, was ecstatic. He couldn't believe his luck. He had been brooding for two whole days and without even expecting it, she called and invited him to her place. He didn't care where she lived and he would go even if she lived in a hole. All he wanted was her and wh

In all his life, Ansel had been to many places and even he had visited the slums once when they were building their charityhospital but he had never thought that he would step inside one of the houses. He didn't have a reason at all to and it would all have seemed far fetched.He looked at the person who made him do all this and smiled. Looking at Denise cooking was the best sight he had ever laid his eyes upon. He loved that she was cooking for him. She looked like a veteran in there and he had to ask."You look like you know what you are doing," he commented and she looked at him with a smile."Yes I do. The other day you cut me short before I could tell you the rest of the story. After my grandfather died and I guess myuncle decided I was big enough and his wife fired yet another worker, I had a lot more to do.They hired a chef who taught me how to cook and it became my duty. At first, I was very short to reach the cooking counter and the sinks and I had the gardener make me
They sat there looking at each other and Denise knew that she could not just sit there looking at him all day long. They were done with everything and all that was remaining was her telling Ansel why she had called him there. She could not even make small talk because no matter how much she dragged the issue, she had to face it at the end of it all.She knew that she couldn't use the excuse of lunch. And the way he looked, he was ready to camp there until she gave him an answer. He didn't seem to be in any particular kind of hurry. Ansel, on the other hand, decided to break the ice when he saw that she was having a hard time arranging her thoughts."Sooo... have you thought about my request? l admit I'm nervous to hear what you will say but eager at the same time," he said her and she swallowed and then nod her head. She was ready to get it over with. He looked at how nervous she was and his gut feeling was screaming at him that what he had been thinking about the past few days
After two days, Denise found herself standing in the Registrar of marriages office getting married to Ansel. She had readied herself for all this but it was like she had moved too fast. She had even started having doubts at her decision making skills.It was like she was in a tornado being swirled left right and centre and she needed to take a rest before she started feeling dizzy. It had all happened so fast and she needed to slow down.Within two days, she had said yes to a marriage proposal, moved in with a man and now here she was getting married.After they agreed to get married that day in her house, Ansel didn't even wait. He was behaving like a kid the way they wait onChristmas Eve for Christmas day knowing that presents would be opened the following day.He immediately called Kai then and there and asked him to get everything ready. Since Denise didn't have parents, it wasn't going to be hard. In fact, they would have got married within a day if it wasn't for Denise who i
WARNING: Mature content. If you are not comfortable reading explicit material, please skip this chapter. For those who enjoy one on one action, happy reading!Denise was Ansel's first love and likewise, Ansel was Denise's first love. What that meant was that they both were clumsy in their actions but they were both really determined to make it memorable. Denise had never done this again but she didn't just want it to be like any other night for Ansel. She wanted it to be something that would be remembered by this man for a long long time to come.After that kiss, she excused herself to go to the bathroom and Ansel did just that. He was already aroused and if Denise was experienced enough, she could have told from the way his eyes clouded with desire. But she didn't and thus she couldn't tell. All that was on her mind was to make this night special and Ansel was also happy she chose to go to the bathroom at that time because he was feeling like his boner would explode from all the ne
When Denise got out of the bath and wore her night clothes, food was already waiting for her on the small table in their bedroom. She looked at the arrangement and wondered whether Ansel had been sent by someone to torture her heart. He had already done enough but he never got tired of doing things for her. He never got tired of taking care of her and that really made her heart warm. This was a brand new feeling for her and she loved it. She also wanted to experience that feeling for the rest of her life.What Denise didn't know was that to Ansel, he didn't think that he had done anything special for her. To him, this was the normal treatment one should give to the person he cares about let alone the one he loves. But to Denise, who had never experienced any kind of care at all in her whole life, this was humongous. She appreciated every little thing he did because she knew what it was like to lack. She thus appreciated him big time for what he was doing for her no matter how minimal.
Denise slept for the better part of the afternoon into the late evening.All this time, Ansel was sitting there like a faithful dog waiting for her to wake up. She had requested him to be by his side and he was going to honour that promise even if it meant not going back to work. For Denise, he was ready to work overtime for the hours he would miss. He also loved being near her and seeing her this peaceful as she slept like a baby actually made him feel peaceful in his heart. Her abduction had really shaken him and he had to be here to make sure that it was true that she was here and safe.During the time that she was asleep, he had taken a shower and asked the butler to prepare light foods for her for when she woke up. He was sure that she would wake up famished since she had missed lunch. He was thus ready.Denise had the best dream she has had in her entire life. In her dream, she and Ansel had been married for ten years and they had two children: girls. Ansel had spoilt the chil
Ansel helped Denise board their car on the gun shot seat and he drove them personally but there was a bodyguards’ car behind them. He could not trust anybody else to drive her home after the scare he got. He had never felt so scared in all his life and he just wanted to make sure that she got hone safe. He wanted to stay with her to reassure his troubled heart.Denise sat there obediently like a school girl holding onto her bags. She didn't want to talk because she knew that her emotions were allover and she didn't want to annoy the man who sat there looking at the road. She just felt so happy and grateful that she had this man in her life. Denise had never been this emotional and she felt embarrassed about it and she didn't want to embarrass herself more than she already had."A penny for your thoughts," Ansel said bringing her back from her stupor.She turned and looked at him but lacked words to tell him. She really didn't want to talk because she knew that if she did, the well th
At the same time that Denise was settling scores with Mandy and her goons, Ansel was going crazy looking for her. It was after thirty minutes that one of thebodyguards who took the driver to the hospital called Kai and told them that the driver was conscious now and had told him something.The vehicle had a GPS tracker and it was on when he was carjacked and beaten and he didn't think that the kidnappers knew about it.This was the breakthrough they had been waiting and praying for. Ansel had really prayed even though it was a long time since he had.Immediately Kai was told this, they sent the information to their IT guru and within minutes, he had the location of the vehicle. He immediately sent it to Kai and Ansel and his men immediately drove towards thatarea.It was a run down building where there was no sign of life and what gave them hope was when they found the taxi and another car parked next to it. Since they didn't know how many people were there, they waited for all the
Denise looked at Mandy and wondered why and where all the hatred came from. She didn't know the other woman and she really didn't think that even if it was a grudge because of taking Ansel or humiliating her the other day, it warranted her asking her people to kill her."Why do you hate me so much first of all? Do we know each other from somewhere?" Denise asked Mandy because she thought all this crazy.How can one hate someone else out of their own delusions? It wasn't normal. But she needed to hear it from Mandy herself because maybe she had a reason."Do I have any reason to hate you? You took my man away from me. Isn't that reason enough? I hate your very guts!" Mandy said through gritted teeth but Denise just looked at her with pity in her eyes. Really? Did Mandy just call Ansel her man?"Has Ansel ever told you that he loves you or has he ever given you any reason to believe that he does? Has he ever behaved in a way to suggest that he mightwant you?" Denise asked her again,
Denise had known that marrying Ansel would come with its own troubles but she didn't expect it to come so soon. She should have expected that there were people who were in love with Ansel in his own home but she never suspected that any of them would go as far as trying to take her life.But it was okay, they were giving her the experience she needed to live in this world that she had found herself in. She loved Ansel and she was ready to fight for him… literally.She sat on the couch again but her heart was still aching. Every time she would look at the bag that had been holding the food she had bought for Ansel and then think of how these fools had eaten it, she would feel so bad that she would feel better after beating them again.This time, even the guy who had been shot was no exception. They were beaten so badly that they could not speak well because their lips were the sizes of sausages.On the other side of the town, Ansel was going mad as his people tried tracking that taxi
These men regretted underestimating Denise and taking her nonchalance as fear and helplessness. If they had known that she could handle a gun and she knew how to fight, they would have recruited more men or even dealt with her more ruthlessly and without delay. They sat on the floor in a line like obedient school children and faced her. She then sat back on the couch and bent her back a little, parted her legs and placed her elbows on her knees and looked at them the way one would look at children. She was like a mother teaching her children how to be good boys. She was dangling the gun before them and they seemed visibly scared until one decided to be brave. "Do you even know how to use that thing? Stop pretending! Our young miss told us that you are a nobody. So, stop pretending to be brave. Why don't we fight and see what you can do?" He said and she smiled at that. An eerily scary smile that had him regretting why he said that. "Okay," she said just that and pulled the tri
