MALAYINA
May 16th 2018
We sit in silence for what seems like a lifetime, the sound of the ceilings fan rotating in the air, can be heard, the faintest similarity to the sound of a small helicopter rotor blade slicing through the air.
And, I sit patiently, waiting for him to give me a little history lesson about what went down between our families and how the war officially started.
"For many generations, our families have been at odds; it was once believed that my ancestors murdered one of yours and took the empire for themselves." He began, his eyes dancing on the carpet as he pondered. "Before there was a king and his right-hand man between our families, our Mafia kingdom was formidable, indestructible, armoured with the best as they were dominated by two leaders who shared a common philosophy."
He leans forward, resting his elbows on the tops of his knees, his hands dangling as his expensive watch casts hues of light of
CHAD May 16th 2018 I recline in my chair, holding her delicate hand and rub the pad of my thumb back and forth across her knuckles. Beep, beep, beep, beep... I despise hospitals, the antiseptic odour, and the constant earache of the machines going off every few seconds makes me a little irritable. Beep, beep, beep, beep... Furthermore, Beep, beep, beep... Gods! Never mind the incessant swinging of the doors as nurses and doctors continue to pour in, repeating the same old nonsense every time I ask them when will she wake up. "Come on, Lisa, you beautiful creature. It's time for you to awaken and show me those lovely hazel eyes of yours." I plead, my insides churning with anxiety. I take my phone from the breast pocket of my jacket and check to see if Detective Evie has attempted to contact me. Nothing.... Not a phone call or a message, I toss the phone upon the bed in
LISA May 16th 2018 The darkness has always been my prefered hiding spot, insulating me from reality. It's my quiet space where I can sit back and ponder about my life choices till I gradually begin to feel myself submerging from the darkness that refuses to hold me captive for much longer. There is no agony or anguish, no one whispering sweet nothings in my ear, and no need for me to attempt to please everyone without putting my feelings first. This is where I want to be, this is where I feel most secure. I murdered a man, assisted in disposing of his body, and allowed Layla to steal Chad's money; karma definitely caught up with me. Jimmy, when I think about him, my heart sinks; he was the first and only man I ever loved apart from my father and brother. Things were amazing between us at first; I truly believed he was my forever, and I loved him with every fibre of my being at the time. I'm glad I walked in on him with Nicki. Sh
LISA May 16th 2018 I gulp, listening to Detective Evie while my gaze is fixed on Rachel, watching her as she fusses over me. "You look like you've just seen a ghost, baby." As she wipes the hair away from my face, she says with tenderness and I instantly believe I am not worthy of such a woman as herself. "Detective.." I croak out, clearing my throat. I watch with dread as she and Chad turn to face me. Chad's tense body begins to relax as he smiles at me. "Glad you found your way back to us, blondie." He flicks me a playful wink and a faint smile graces my face. "Thanks," I reply, "It's good to be back." I let my eyes wander around the room and the sudden urge to come clean about Jimmy consumes me and before I know what's happening, the next lot of words start flowing out of my mouth. "I have something I need to tell you," I say as I take a deep breath. "I'm all ears," Evie replies giving me h
MADDIE May 16th 2018 I walk through the entrance doors to the club, the familiar feeling of belonging stains my soul and hardens my heart. I gave my everything to this place only to be tossed out like a sack of garbage! I have never felt so humiliated in my life and it takes a lot to embarrass someone like me with no morals embedded into my DNA. I groan as I move down the corridor towards Chad's office, pulling out the pocket knife I had concealed between my breasts, flipping out the blade and I masterfully stab it into the wall, dragging it as I continue to make my way to my destination. By the time I reach Chad's office, picking the lock, my hand is covered with flakes of paint, a trail has also been left in my wake and I patiently wait for the two face bastard to show up as I recline in his office chair with my feet on his desk. Twenty minutes pass, he hasn't shown up and already I'm start
LAYLA May 16th 2018 I unscrew the cap from the bottle of Jack Daniels in my grasp, taking a massive swig from the bottle, and I hiss as the burning sensation slowly travels through my system, heating me from within. "I'm sorry, baby," I apologise to my husband as I empty the contents of the bottle over his grave. I came here today to confess my sins, ask for forgiveness and say my farewells. Even though I know I am not worthy of such a gift, it will not deter me from doing or saying what I feel is right. "I wish I had listened to you; I should have recognised the warning signs and shielded you from Jimmy, he always made you do unthinkable things." My voice cracks and I swallow back the lump that has formed in the back of my throat. "I loved you with everything I had; I thought we'd die together in old age, but not like this." I scoff. "My heart and soul died the day you died, and every day since, I've wanted nothing more
LAYLAMay 16th 2018I inhale deeply as I open the police station's door and approach the front desk with shaking limbs and a beating heart."Hello," I say quietly as my voice comes out in a hushed tone. "Excuse me," I remark a bit too loudly, and the cop behind the computer raises his eyes to mine with a dissatisfied grimace.He moans as he strains to exit his seat, taking off his spectacles, and as he approaches me, he picks up his paper cup and takes a big gulp from it."Well?" He replies, squeezing the paper cup in his palm and peering at me with his stormy grey eyes."Very intimidating," I remark sarcastically. "May I speak with the head of the homicide department?" I request emphatically.The officer replaces his spectacles on his face as he moves the mouse across the computer screen, his face carved with a deep scowl."That is Detective Evie; she has stepped out for a moment, but if you wish to-""I'm
CADDIEMay 16th 2018I swaddle Jaxson with his plush bath towel. My body continues to ache throughout, and I am becoming increasingly concerned about Mal. It has now been two days since she returned home, and I have a hunch as to her whereabouts.I am aware she is with Amar because Chad called and informed me of the incident at the club, but I refused to think Amar would take her captive against her will. Even if he does manage to twist some ropes and marry Mal behind her back.However, there is so much about Chad's side of the tale that does not add up.I finish changing a disgruntled Jaxson and patiently await the arrival of my grandmother. I have asked her to come and watch over my little prince so I can follow my intuition and pay a visit to the one person who has actually looked out for me when it comes to Ace.~An hour Later~I drape my faux fur coat over my shoulders, cramming my pockets
CADDIEMay 16th 2018"What are you doing here woman?" He questions in a rich velvety tone drenched in his thick Greek accent.My entire body is a tingling mess and I doubt I will ever get tired of staring at his beautiful face.His sun-kissed skin is a dream come true for all pale women, like me.He has a crew-cut hairstyle that accentuates the scar that extends from the shell of his ear to the nape of his neck.He has gorgeous almond-shaped eyes that captivate me as his luscious lips curve upward into a jaw-dropping smirk. I quickly realise he is fully aware that he is sexually affecting me.And to be honest, I couldn't give a rats ass."Thisavrós!" (Treasure!) He snaps.I shake the fog of eye-fucking him from my head and I clear my throat as I step towards him."I came here to see, Mal. I'm worried about her, Vanko." Distress laces my words. "Please, I just want to see how she is. You don't ha
MALAYINA March 14 2019 I stir in my sleep, reaching across the bed to find it empty. I'm alone and a pang of disappointment caresses my tired self. The sun is peaking through the windows and the soothing sound of waves crashing against the shoreline from a distance fills the room. I shift about, rolling onto my side and maneuver myself off the bed. As I exit the room I can hear voices from downstairs along with the clattering sound of dishes. I descend the stairs and my body starts to ache. I ache everywhere, thanks to my insatiable husband. I brush my fingertips along the crook of my neck. My body is like a canvas with Amar painting me with his affection of love. The stroking of his tongue, the feather-light kisses he unapologetically plants everywhere, and his soft, demanding fingers kneading every inch of my body all contribute to the creation of a picture of love. I belong to him an
AMAR June 05 2018 "Amar.." I look up from the man that is tied to a chair bleeding and my gaze clashes with Vankos. He is scowling with his phone in his hand. "What is it?" I flick my wrists. Blood splatters across the floor, staining the white carpet and I pick up the rag on the table using it to wipe my grazed knuckles. I look over my shoulder to one of my soldiers standing in the corner of the room. He has his gun pointed at the unlucky son of a bitch I was just giving a face beating to. "Take him back to his room, clean his face and give him something hot to eat," I demand. "I don't want the bastard dying on me before he gives up any information." "Yes, Lord Amar." His voice travels down the corridors with me as I follow Vanko out of the room. "What's wrong?" I ask him, continuing to clean the blood from my knuckles. "It's Mal." He says with
MALAYINA04 June 2018I look around the room for the third time making sure I've packed everything as I zip my bag up. I look over to the door that connects my room to Amars and my heart starts to feel heavy as I come to realise that this is it. Any chances of me saying my farewells to him are gone.After we executed his grandfather he made it very clear that I was free to leave and when he stormed out of the room without another word or second glance over his shoulder... I was left standing in the room stupefied staring at his lifeless grandfather on the bed.I have to admit,I had no idea what to anticipate from him. However, I was not expecting those words to come from his mouth in light of what he had previously said to me.All the promises he made of him claiming me was nothing but all talk and oddly I feel like crying.I honestly dont know what the hell is going on with me, but, what I do
CHAD02 June 2018I look up at the slender high rise building while I scratch the back of my head. I've made an executive decision to try and get my shit together by applying for a job that will make a difference in the world.I'm applying, no, scrub that.I am volunteering to be a big brother in the B.B.B.S.N.Z (Big Brothers, Big Sisters, New Zealand.) Mentoring Foundation.Thanks to detective Evie for reaching out to me when I was down in the dumps two days ago.She picked me up in an unmarked patrol car, taking the scenic route through the southside under the bridge where all the little hoodrats and homeless kids hang out."This is the hardest part of the job." She said with her words heavily coated in anguish. "These kids will never have the tools to live a fruitful life. This right here is as good as it gets for them, unless, someone steps up and tries to get these kids off the street
MALAYINA June 02 2018 I lay on my back, staring up at the ceiling as I claw at the bedding beneath my hands. My nostrils flare as I breathe heavily, trying to keep my tongue pressed against the roof of my mouth. As Mr Diamandis lets out a boisterous laugh, his whole body trembles above me and he shakes the bed at the same time. He glances down at me with his cat green eyes full of danger and amusement crosses his face. He twists his neck, looking back at Amar. "I'm going to pop her cherry first, then I'm going to watch my men fuck her before I shoot your fucking brains out and fly back home to Greece." He moves the gun he has pressed against my temple, sliding it down my body, between my breasts and torso until he points it at my vagina. "I always wondered what your whore of a mother tasted like." He cackles venomously. "Doesn't matter now that I finally have my hands-on you." "Yo
MALAYINA June 02 2018 True to his word, Amar has managed to lure his grandfather into the country. He has arranged a fake auction for young girls, bringing the most corrupt and filthy rich men out to play. He said he wants to clean up the streets if he is to become the new Don of the Diamandis Family business. He won't stand by and watch his men degrade females while tarnishing his name. Vanko, a.k.a. Mini Hulk, has recruited a group of guys to maintain security and notify the authorities when the time comes for me to eliminate the old bastard who stole my life. If Vanko's calculations are correct, it should take the cops roughly forty minutes to swarm the joint given our location on the outskirts of the city. Amar and Vanko have sworn to me that everything is in order and that all I have to worry about is playing my part by acting like I am drugged and I have no recognition of the man I'm ab
CADDIE May 22nd 2018 I raise my eyes to the dark sea, strewn with flecks of light. The view is stunning, as the full moon stands high in the sky, illuminating the neighbourhood. I wrap my blanket tighter around my body as I sit on the cold steps, sipping on a cup of coffee. For the past twenty minutes, I've done nothing but think about how lucky I am to still be alive and appreciate the little things I have. I turn my head, looking back at the building over my shoulder as I can hear my phone ringing in the kitchen and I ignore it. Today we said our farewells to Layla and for some unexplainable reason, I feel quite emotional. I held Jaxson for two hours straight, staring down at him as he slept peacefully in my arms. I cried, kissing his head multiple times as I whispered in his ear, 'Thank you for choosing me to be your mum.' Most days I feel unworthy of his
CHAD May 22nd 2018 The loud crackling sound of fire echoes in my ears as burning phantom pains lick my skin. My eyelids feel heavy as I look through clouds of tears that haven't subsided in multiple days. They say time heals all wounds. Whoever said that needs a bullet between the eyes the lying bastards. I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to concentrate on elevating my breathing. With every passing day, my screams of remorse fill the rooms in my home. My sense of seclusion in my house has been shattered as the terrors of that fatal night that claimed Layla, Maddie and my Club haunt me day and night. "Chad? Did you hear what I said?" I slowly draw the curtains up, revealing my brown eyes as I look at detective Evie. "No, sorry," I admit, brushing a hand over my face as I release a shaky breath. "Are you sure you're up for this? We can always do this another day wh
MALAYINAMay 22nd 2018"You always know how to push my fucking buttons, mikros!" (Little one) He hisses.He reaches into his pocket, pulls out his phone, tapping on the screen and presses it to his ear. "Bring the bastard back into the room." He snaps, his eyes never leaving mine.A cold chill snakes up my spine as he steps back and starts to remove his suit jacket. "Put it on." He demands holding it out towards me.I snatch it from his grasp and drape it over my shoulders as I glare at him. "Happy now?" I ask him sarcastically.He reaches out and starts to button the jacket up. "Satisfied enough." He grumbles.The door flies open and Vanko walks in with Dane by his side. "On your knees!"Dane looks at me with regret in his eyes as he kneels in front of Amar. "Did you enjoy tongue fucking my wife?" Amar slaps Dane across the face.I wince as the slapping sound echoes through the
