CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL The unknown man
It was a bright morning in Miami and Rebecca was already up, dressing up her bed as she listened to 28 by dean lewis and Ruth B. It was an emotional song and she found it relatable to her situation, but she wasn’t sobbing, she just vibed to it.“They say time heals all wound, but yours cut so deep!” She sang that part a bit loud. She continued singing along till she heard a knock on the door. She walked towards the direction and her mood changed from bad to worse immediately she saw who knocked. It was Eric.“Hey babe.” He flashed her a smile, but the smile disappeared when he saw the look on her face. It was unusual. He expected her to be all over him by now but she didn’t budge, she just stood there in front of him, her gaze boring into his.“Are you okay?” Eric asked, his tone filled with concern. Rebecca didn’t say anything, she left the door opened and walked into the room to pick her phone from the bed. She stopped the music from playing and then turned back to Eric. “Wher

Rebecca slowly opened her eyes and at first her vision was blurry, she couldn’t see clearly. She tried to lift her hand up to clean her eyes, but she couldn’t. It was then she noticed she was tied to a chair, hence she couldn’t move. She shut her eyes and when she opened it this time around, her vision was better than before. Though it wasn’t exactly so clear, but it was better than before. Her gaze moved around and she noticed it was an empty room, there was no property in the room, except the chair she was tied to. Realization suddenly dawned on her, she had been kidnapped. But why would anyone kidnap her? As she thought about it, her mind drifted to Axel, he had all the reasons in the world to kidnap her. After all, he had done it before.“Son of a bitch!” She tried to curse, but then noticed she couldn’t speak. Her mouth was glued with a tape. She could only say the word inwardly. She kept humming, hoping someone would hear her, but no one did.*******It was night ti

Eric had apologized to Rebecca for the umpteenth time but she didn’t acknowledge any of it. Her gaze was fixed on the car window, staring at all the things they drove past. She was in his car driving to God knows where, maybe home. After he slapped her, she couldn’t go against him, she was scared. She moved her gaze towards Eric and found him driving with so much focus, he had stopped apologizing when she didn’t reply. She sighed and looked away. If someone had told her things would turn out this way, she wouldn’t have believed. Maybe Whitney was right after all. If she had known, she wouldn’t have returned to him after what happened on the day of the wedding. She turned to him again and noticed he looked calm now. “Can I please have my phone.” She was careful with her words, she didn’t want to infuriate him. Earlier, while apologizing, he had told her the man who abducted her gave him her phone. He kept on explaining, even tho she refused to say a single word. Eric contr

Rebecca stared at Eric who was fast asleep. Not too long ago, they had dinner together and he slept off, claiming he was tired. He promised to tell her what she needed to hear tomorrow morning, but that didn’t stop her from being curious. Gently, she picked her phone from the bedside table and stood from the bed. She tiptoed to the door and opened it as carefully as she could. She avoided being seen by anyone and rushed downstairs. When she got to the gate, she met the security man there.“Can you please open the gate?” She maintained composure while asking. She didn’t want to make it obvious that she was about to sneak out. The security man moved his eyes from her head to her toe, observing her outfit and it was weird that she wanted to go out despite having a pajamas on. “It’s late, ma’am.” Rebecca’s brows furrowed. “My friend is outside waiting. Open the fucking gate for her to drive in.” She raised her voice a bit, her tone filled with authority, giving him no chance t

What did he mean by that? If Eric wasn’t in love with her, then why on earth did he marry her? She turned to Axel, her face filled with confusion. She would believe other things about her husband, but saying he wasn’t in love with her? That was too extreme. Eric had done a lot to prove his love for her. Even before they started dating, he was helping her in different ways. He supported her in medical school till she graduated. He got an apartment for her, and was there for her emotionally, physically and financially. No, she wouldn’t believe what she just heard. It might be that Axel was trying to paint Eric bad in front of her. She wouldn’t fall for it.“Listen, Axel. I confronted you because I still have little trust in you. Don’t shatter it with this stunt you’re trying to pull.” Her little warning didn’t do anything, instead, it stopped Axel from giving her more information.“Suit yourself.” Axel walked out of the room, leaving her lost in thought. She knew Axel so we

The hug was gentle, a soft offering of comfort.She felt warm as soon as his arms wrapped around her body. She felt all her problems disappeared, and the warmth feeling made her feel she was in a world of her own.The hug was like a safe haven, she felt safe and peaceful. The butterflies in her stomach giggled as she breathed in a familiar cologne coming from him.It was a beautiful feeling, and she didn’t want him to pull away.But all of a sudden, she pulled away from the hug, regret washing over her. If someone was to comfort her, then it shouldn’t be the person who caused half of her pains.“Don’t think we’re cool,” She said, earning a short nod from him. “I know,”She turned her face to the other direction, trying to distract herself from his piercing gaze.“I feel sleepy,” She mumbled. “You shouldn’t sleep yet. There’s something I’d like to show you.” Axel insisted.Slowly, she turned to him with furrowed brows, “What is it?”Though she was staring directly at him, she made su

Rebecca slowly opened her eyes and the first thing it came in contact with was the ceiling which looked so far from her sight, and it made her to wonder how a ceiling could be so high. She was used to waking up with the ceiling not too far from her sight, because her bed was high. She tried to get up and that was when realization suddenly dawned on her. She didn’t sleep on the bed, she slept on the floor. Her eyes squinted, as she tried to recall how she ended up sleeping on the floor. Last night, after Axel left the room, she cried a lot and ended up falling asleep on the floor. If it was the Axel she used to know, he would check on her and carry her to the bed, but none of all that happened. She was sure he didn’t even come back to the room after he left. She waved the thoughts off. She didn’t want to cry again that morning, she badly wanted to go home. Maybe coming here was a bad idea after all. It would have been better if she was patient with Eric and allow him answer

As the car drove close to the house, Rebecca’s tension increased, she was nervous. Kira didn’t explain what Eric was told to her, so she didn’t know what she should expect. The car finally stopped outside the house and she stepped out of it. The driver didn’t drive away, and she wanted to ask why, but she let it be. It was the least of her problems. She stood outside the gate, and didn’t bother to call the security man, cause she knew he would be watching the CCTV, that was his job. Few minutes later, the gate went opened, and she walked in, her arms wrapped around each other.“Ma’am, are you okay?” The security man asked, but she didn’t reply. She headed straight to the room she shared with Eric and when she opened the door, he rushed to her immediately.“Baby!” He pulled her into a tight hug. She wrapped her hands around him and began sobbing, “I’m sorry,” She apologized, with tears rushing down her cheeks. After some seconds, they both disengaged from the hug.“Were yo

CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL Love rain
She could feel his hot breath on her face and she was tempted to open her eyes to see how close his face was. Just as she was about to do so, she felt his soft lips on hers. Her breath hitched immediately, and even though she knew it would lead to this, it still took her by surprise. His lips were warm and soft, and as he sucked her lower lip into his mouth, she felt a spark of electricity. Her body remained still, her legs stayed rooted to the ground as if they were glued there. All of a sudden, he pulled away, leaving her hanging with her eyes closed. Rebecca felt he stopped because she wasn’t reciprocating. To confirm if her assumption was right, she located his neck and wrapped her hands around it. She leaned it, and when she couldn’t feel his lips, she opened her eyes. She felt ashamed when Axel chuckled, but it transformed to satisfaction when he claimed her lips. Her eyelids closed voluntarily and her hand tightened around his neck as she gave in to the worl
CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL His cravings
Regret; it was little to what Rebecca felt at that moment. This wasn’t how she pictured the conversation to end. Axel had made up his mind to go away from her life completely, and even though she had craved for this moment, it hit her like a storm. She had no where to go to, Eric was still searching for her. But being with Axel, was like an eighty percent safety guaranteed. Without him, she wouldn’t be able to hide from Eric for long, she wouldn’t be able to find the clan, she wouldn’t be able to claim her father’s properties. How could she be so foolish??? She cursed herself and ran after Axel, calling his name repeatedly, but neither did he stop nor turned. She hastened her steps and was able to get to his front, finally stopping him from walking further. She panted heavily, trying to catch her breath. He stared down at her, his face expressionless. Even though he didn’t display any expression, she could tell the question going through his mind;What do you want?
CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL Off her life
She was too shocked to say a word. She just stared at him, with different thoughts running through her mind. She stood up and took slow steps towards him.“You grew up to be so beautiful.” Thomas commended, smiling at her. When she got close to him, her steps halted. “What…what are you doing here, sir?” She didn’t want to think it was what she was thinking. Everyone at the orphanage knew Thomas to be a good man. He always showed up with gifts and money, helping the kids in any area they needed help with. The head matron assumed Rebecca was his favorite because he was more concerned about Rebecca’s well being, than the others.“You don’t look happy to see me. I’m hurt.” He held his chest dramatically.“I…” She didn’t know the right words to say. She was perplexed.“I know you have many questions going through your mind right now, and I need you to calm down. Take a deep breath and ask accordingly, I’ll answer the ones I can.” He spoke softly. Her brows etched, and at tha
CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL The man behind it
Rebecca kept on checking if their car was being followed by the black car, but fortunately, it wasn’t. She sighed in relief and turned to the front, where she could see the driver from her seat. “What do we do about Kira, what if they try to hurt her?” She asked. “They won’t.” He replied, his gaze focused on the road. “How did you know so?” She questioned curiously. “Because she isn’t the one they’re after.” He spared her a stare. Fear gripped Rebecca immediately. One name kept ringing in her head. ‘Eric’ Thousands of questions filled her mind, but she had no answer to any of them. “Try to contact Kira with the bud, so we can pick her up and head to the airport.” He didn’t reply, and she thought he didn’t hear her, so she repeated her words; loud and clear this time around, but still no reply. She became confused. It was obvious he could hear her, then why wasn’t he replying? She unfastened her seatbelt and moved to the front, using the front seat belt. “Why aren’t
CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL A hot chase
As the car drove speedily, the force of the breeze from the window blew Rebecca’s hair all over her face. She was in the car with Kira and a guy, driving to the airport. It was finally the day she would be traveling to Italy and Axel wasn’t around. He promised to meet them at the airport. She had asked where he went to, but as usual, he ignored her question and told her Kira would come pick her up. She was at the back seat with Kira, while the car was being driven by an unfamiliar guy, probably someone Axel instructed to drive them to the airport. The drive was silent, not because she didn’t have anything to say, but because Kira had all her attention focused towards her phone, and talking to her would be a waste of time. All of a sudden, the car stopped in the middle of the road, and Kira looked up from her phone.“Why did you stop?” She asked.“It seems we are being followed.” His reply came with a hint of urgency. Kira’s brows raised, “Followed? How sure are you?”“
CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL Frustrated Eric
She saw an almost invisible smile appear on Axel’s face, but it disappeared immediately. Why was he happy she agreed? She shrugged the thought off and took a deep breath. Growing up, she’d always been portrayed as a weak child, no one saw the value in her. They didn’t think she had potentials. She was tired of being seen as a weakling, she was tired of being used, she needed to stand for herself and prove them all wrong. But then, a question lingered in her head.‘Is he proud of me for making this decision?’ Her father was able to hide his identity from her and her mum, and it meant one thing; he didn’t want them to get entangled in his dark world. But here she was, stepping into it.‘Would he relent me for going into the world he’d been trying to protect me from, or would he be proud of me for taking over his legacy?’ She tried to think through it, but the only answer she could get was that, whatever decision she’d make now, would determine her future. And she didn’t

CLAIMED BY THE DEVIL Rebecca’s decision
“Be free tomorrow, I’ll need your help.” He said instead. He patted Trent’s shoulders and walked out of the room, leaving Trent with a troubling question, ‘Why would the man want to hurt Rebecca in the first place?’ When Axel got to his room, he took of his jacket and fell flatly on the bed, like he had no life in him. “And if you don’t keep to your promise?” The grey haired man had asked him.“Then you can go ahead and kill her, it won’t bother me.” He gave his words.“Why are you so concerned about her?”“I’m not, I’m only doing my job.” He had replied after being quiet for a while.“I pray you do your job well, cause if you go back on your words, I’ll make sure she have a reunion with her father.” Those words Echoed in his head, he couldn’t stop thinking about it. He took a deep breath, calming his nerves. He muttered something incoherent and after that, he took out his phone, getting ready for another sleepless night****** Rebecca stood at the balcony, observing the m

“If I were in your shoes, Becca…” He took a brief pause. She noticed he was trying to refrain himself, and she couldn’t help but wonder why. “I would dive into the real world, and take what rightfully belongs to me. And for those who have hurt me, I’ll make them beg for death. But…” Her eyes lit in curiosity, but again, he took a brief pause. ‘fucking talk if you want to’ She suppressed the urge to scream those words at him “You won’t do any of that.” His tone was firm, turning to her direction. Her eyes bored into his in curiosity. “Why?” The words left her mouth in a whisper. He turned away from her, “The world is a dangerous one, Becca. It’s for the strong.” She scoffed, finding offense in his last words. “Are you indirectly saying I’m weak? Why do you…”“Not indirectly.” He cuts her off. “You are indeed weak.” That being said, he stood up and walked back into the bedroom. Rebecca followed suit.“I am not weak!” She snapped behind him and his steps halted. “I had a
