DesdemonaFight or flight,my body chose the most useless response,freeze.Ettiene on top of me looked as relaxed as someone in this situation could possibly be.I could feel my eyes go wide. Whoever was standing on that door,I did not want to see their face. And I do not want them to see mine. So I sink I to the couch.Ettiene gives me a funny look when he notices my action."Get off." I whisper yell.He cocks his neck, looking at me like I had lost my mind to tell him that."She is busy." He states in a flat tone.Oh God,I can't go further into the couch and he is not helping."I can see that." I have never heard Kevin's voice that cold."Close the door on your way out.""Actually," his voice sounds way closer than it had before. "You are the one who will close the door on your way out." I glance to the other side and catch his eyes for a second. The way I turned my head to look away actually made my neck hurt."We have matters to discuss."I blink but don't dare to look at him."N

Ettiene"What do you mean she has sold all her shares?"Jules shifts on the couch to lean forward. I lean back."Not that alone,she also sold the part of the company she had bought."I scoff. "You are kidding. Also,why are you the one to inform me of this?"He shrugs. "Why don't you guess?""I have no time for this. Close the door on your way out.""Oh dear brother,you underestimate the moves I can pull."Whatever it is,I do not care. I have to meet up with Ariel because it's apparent she has started a new revenge mission. What I don't get is why she should sell the–Jules fingers snapping right before me gets my attention."Aren't you wondering whom she sold the company to?""Not interested."He scoffs. "You with your attitude. But I'll inform you so you don't get the shock of your life when you receive the news from outside sources.""Please get to the point. Your voice is making my head hurt. I'd like to not hear it anymore.""Me.""Yes,you. I do not fancy your existence just as yo

DesdemonaMy driver pulled up at the hotel. I walked in with my head held high. Ettiene's head lifted and his whole attention was granted to me.A wide smile spread across my face. He stands and pulls my chair back for me."Such a gentleman." I tease."You look beautiful.""I put in a lot of effort so of course I must look beautiful."He lets out a nervous chuckle. "Of course.""I have an–""I'm sorry but why did you sell the company shares? That aside you also gave the other half you owned to Jules.""Don't. Ever. Interrupt me again."One nod. "I apologize.""Apology accepted. Now,do you have anything else to say before I proceed?"He shakes his head. "Good. I am no longer interested in your company.'He opens his mouth as to speak but says no word."But I'll be helping you build it up. You need to increase your sales. You've got like four months remaining,I'll do that for you.""No." He blurts."Give it a thought,Ettiene.""You are playing and I do not know what you are playing at.

Desdemona"We should go to the baby store."I open my eyes and stare at him. "Did you really have to say that while in me?""No,I,um," he pushes his hair back.Hot."I just thought of it now and–" he shifts his weight and ends up supporting himself on his elbows that were each positioned on my side."I'm worried that I am not going to be a good dad and –"Two things,one, ain't no way I'm focusing on whatever he is saying with those lips moving like that.Two,I'm already turned off so,"Get off." I push him away."No. Wait."For some reason this whole situation is making me mad."What Ettiene,what?!"His movements towards me stop. "I'm sorry. I know bringing that up must have upset you and…"I bury my face in my hands. "Please stop."Silence.My heart clenched in my chest and the throbbing in my head begun.A warm hand landed on my shoulder."Talk to me."I turn to face him. "To begin with,you turned me off without the mind-blowing orgasm that you had promised." I push hair away from m

DesdemonaWhite. That's the color I see when I open my eyes.Molly.I spring out of the bed but end up getting wrapped up in masculine arms."Calm down,"Kevin. "where is she?" I ask already feeling breathless. If anything happens to my daughter,I don't believe I'll be able to live through that."She is now sleeping." He informs me smoothly."What happened?" Before he replies, I add, "Please take me to her."The doctor approaches. "You're awake."I rush to him and take both his hands in mine. "Where is molly?""Let's talk first?"In his office,"Your daughter is suffering from arrhythmias." The doctor states as if that was a common term that went around in an office everyday. Or something you'd talk about over coffee with a friend."Um…""It's a heart condition whereby the heart does not beat normally." He continues to explain."Can it be treated?" That's the only thing that matters. "Yes. But in her case,we have to keep an eye on her and see how she progresses.""What do you mean?"

Ettiene'I'm getting an abortion.' That's the text I read when my phone vibrates.Such an amazing text in the middle of my drinking. I set the glass aside and read the text again and again before I registered well."She is getting an abortion." I read the message out loud.Myra is crazy and I do not want to know to what limits her crazinnes extends to. My phone beeps as I make my way to the car."Yes?""Ettiene,the meeting you were to have is in half an hour."Good to hear Ariel's voice after she left me like that. Bad to hear the news she is announcing at this moment."Um,yeah. Yeah. No,I mean…" I start the engine. "Not a good time?"My statement which came out as a question was followed by a long pause. I checked to see if she was still there,yap,still connected."I don't understand.""What?" The traffic also took the worst time to be going slow."How you always get your priorities wrong. You are just like your brother.""What? Brother? Huh?"The car before me is not helping my mo

Ettiene"... will be provided for you."I am getting arrested.The two officers accompanied me outside,each standing by my side as if I was going to try and escape.Walking out the door,I catch a glimpse of Myra looking back at me.The corner of ther lips were turned upwards and her eyes shine with victory. My eyes scanned the room to see if anyone else noticed her look,no one.Stepping outside,cameras flashed on my face.The media? All so quick.No,this muct be a plan. She sat down and carefully arranged all of this. No one thinks of something like this at the span of the moment. This required time,strings and…me.It required me to finish the equation."What do you have to say for yourself?""Is it true that you wanted her to abort the child?""What was the real reason for your divorce?""Did you really cheat on your wife? Is that why you divorced her?""Why is she living down here?""And why did you come after an agreement to only meet for the sake of the baby?""Ettiene,Ettiene,Ett

EttieneThe investors have all pulled out claiming that hey cannot be involved in a company that is rubbed by someone who does not respect women. Myra decided not to press any charges because of our past history. From her point of view,I should be on the ground thanking her for her generosity.Only a month is remaining for the next chairperson to be chosen. One month and I'm totally crushed.Ariel is still with me. She has made it clear that Kev is just her friend. She's given me another chance but I'm so tied up on other matters and I feel like I'm not worthy of her.The bell rings while I'm in bed. I don't get up. It goes again and again. Minutes later,the keys turn.The door opens,I don't turn to see who it is."Wow. Still there,curled up in bed,feeling miserable about yourself." The blankets are pulled off. "It's been two damn weeks already! Get up and get your groove back."I flip over and bury my face in the pillow. "Go away,Ariel.""No babe for today? Mph."Next the lights co

Desdemona It was all good.The joy in the house, the laughter shared, the plays they engaged in, the only things being created were good memories.It was all good.Too good to let it last.The pair had sidelined me in all that they did. Baking, cooking, playing games, I was even blindfolded while they were watching a movie.Here they were thinking of baking again. Apparently my daughter loved the activity so much she wants to do it for the rest of her life. Worst part is she wants to do it with Ettiene!“Molly,dear, I think its time to get back home. You have to go to the kindergarten tomorrow.”She whines and jumps up from the counter. I scream out, reaching for her but she was already in Ettienes hands.“Molly!” I scream. She continues to giggle, completely ignoring me.Ettiene helps her up the counter. Once again, she jumps and lands in his arms“Guys, guys,” I get in between them. “I agree that you are having fun but fun doesn't have to be dangerous.”“Okay Mommy.” She sits.

Desdemona ‘She's matured so fast.’ ‘She acts so reasonably.’Those are words I don't want to hear being used to describe my daughter. That is why I agreed to go out with Ettiene. Not as the father of my child but as a man I am giving a second chance to.My best friend glared at me from the kitchen. Everytime I face him,he avoids eyecontact.“Come on,we can't be doing this everyday. You agreed to let me be.”“Never said I'll smile as I walk you put the door.”Good point.My phone beeps, a message from Ettiene signaling he was here and that I should leave my phone behind.I sigh and call out to Molly.She comes running as usual.“Go over there and kiss Mr. Grumpy goodbye. I'll be back.”Outside, Ettiene had stepped out of the car and was now leaning against it. “What? You plan on kidnapping me?”He laughs and pulls me in his arms for a light kiss.It was over before I could even fight back.“Seriously, you-” I shake my head to clear the fog caused by his stupid kiss.“If you carry yo

DesdemonaMy eyes glared at the ceiling like it was the source of all my problems.I can't do anything in two weeks–less that two weeks actually.I roughly turn to my side and exhale loudly. The clock starred at me reminding me I have four hours to sleep before work.The date offer from Ettiene still lingers in the air. Not because I don't want to go but because he wants to go on a play date with my daughter included.A knock comes before the knob turns. He flips on the lights.“Something told me you were still awake.”“That thing was right.” I sit up.He hands me a glass of milk.“What's keeping you up?”“Ettiene and his stupid family.”He chuckles. “Must be hard.” Silence embraces us and for the first time I was uncomfortable in it.“Hey, you have something to talk about?”“I don't like the guy and the stress he puts over you. No, it's not because I'm I love with you or anything, I hate what he put you through. And I hate that you want to go back to him.”“I'm giving him time to pr

Chapter 43Desdemona Ignoring and moving on, that's what you do when too much information has been dumped on you all at once.A knock comes and I stop swinging around in my chair.“Come in.” His figure brings a light smile to me face. “I didn't expect to see you here.”“Your secretary called me.”“Ah, the new one? he's quite good at his job.”He sits. “Talk to me.”“You are remaining with two weeks till one of you takes the position.”“I'm well aware.”“What are your plans?”“Oh babe, you want me to share them with you so you could sabotage me?”I laugh, brushing him off. “Now why would I do that to the man I'm attracted to.” and the man who hurt me.He sighs and his shoulders slump. “Honestly, I don't know. Two weeks isn't enough to get that much amount, I think jules will have it this time.”I scoff. “And you are just going to let him?”He gives me a weak shrug.“I'll do it. I'll find someone to make it happen.”“It's a lot of money, Desdemona. ‘“I know. First, do you have anyone

MyraThe club was not packed up but the same smell filled the air; sweat, alcohol and cigarettes. Not to forget sex.I clear my throat and step further inside, allowing my eyes to scan over the room.Josh is tall and well built meaning he won't be hard to spot in the crowd.Cold hands grab my arm. “Come this way.”I spin around but that was not fast enough to catch the face of the man dragging me towards the stairs.“Straight ahead, last room.” He orders huskily.I scoff. ‘Rude of him to handle a woman in such a manner.’Nevertheless I follow his direction.Before I could knock the door swings open.“Josh!”“Why are you here?”I stride past him and make myself comfortable.“Is this where you make the drugs?”“Why are you here?” He repeats more sternly than before.“What? I can't come and visit my brother?”He goes round to his seat and goes back to whatever he was doing.“You are completely ignoring me.” And I'll be darned if my voice sounded as whiny as I heard it.He does not reply.

EttieneOkay.The mother and the daughter are going all out in this round."What? What do you mean my father?"Moriah stops and turns. "And for your information,he was not old then,he is old now. Either way,he does not look his age.""The fuck you mean he does not look his age?" Moriahs face does not give anything away."You are seeing him even now? Are you cheating on David? Are you repeating your past?"She gives a nonchalant shrug. "Who says I am?"Waaaait.No way."Oh so it's someone you are…" Ariel's words trail off as realization hits her like a brick.Myra lifts her head from where it was buried in Josh neck."Come again?"Josh had now quit crying and composed himself. He looks up with a scrunched face and puffy eyes. The guy has clearly been through a lot. I feel for him.Kevin who had been silent all this time lets out a long,deep growl. "You two are sisters. Do you want everything spelt out for you?""What are you mad about?" I mumble loud enough for him to hear.He waves

Desdemona"Wait,what?""Collins is not your father." Mother's voice was even,no trace of emotion but I still felt like she had screamed them.As if she slapped me right across the face with them.So all those years I kept up with the man's shit,I could have done something. I considered the fact that he was my father in every decision I made.My eyes well up.I quickly wipe the tears because there was nothing to cry about."I hate him." My chest burn as I mutter those words."And not him alone,I hate you and I hate my biological father as well." The bitterness in my voice made it sound strained."Yeah. Yeah. But…who is your father?" Myra who was not seated asks.I sprint up and wrap the robe around me tightly. "I don't care. I don't want to know. Leave. Everyone leave."The tears streamed down my cheeks.Ettiene stands beside me and pulls me against him. I allow myself to melt into his support."You do care,babe."I hear Myra snarl from afar."You do and that's why you are crying righ

Desdemona"I'm sorry,mother. We have to tell them."My jaws dropped to the ground and my arms to my side."Please tell me you are kidding.""Oh shit!" Ettiene cussed.I laugh then pause to exchange a glance between the two. "You are joking,right?"No response. "This isn't serious.""No shit it is.""No. No. Tell me it's one of those dumb things you do mother. Tell me that you got with a boy with mommy kink and that's what you have going on."Heavy silence followed."Wow." I say while nodding. "It's not."Myra laughs but that's the least of what I want to focus on at the moment."This family is so messed up.""Explain." I ordered. "It's not worth it." She shrugs it off."No. I deserve an explanation and that is exactly what you are going to give to me." I shuffled from the centre of the room and took a seat on the edge of the bed."Maybe we should go talk about this at home.""I see no reason for that." I argue sternly. "Josh,your son over there will probably tell Myra about it. Kev

Ettiene"You know him?!" "Of course I know him." She replies in a high pitch. "W–what are you doing here?" She is already getting out of bed with the gray sheets wrapped up all over her body. "How do you even know her?'Myra steps in front of the guy. "That part is not very important right now.""Then what is?'"The information that he holds." She declared."Information?" Ariel squeaks. "No." She is pushing Josh out the door. "You have no information you want to give. Nothing at all."Josh revolves around her and ends up in the room where he once was."Who's the man you're with?" His eyes pierced into mine. "Waaaait." He growls. "Is he?" He covers his mouth and turns to Ariel. "No way." He stretches on the 'a' a little bit too long."You went back to the guy who put you through shit?" He sneered."Wait. Wait. Wait. He knows about me? Who is he? What I'm I missing over here?"Ariel's phone rings.She ignores it and moves to the wardrobe where she removes a robe and puts it on. The s
