Chapter 2
I walked in the rain heedless, with nowhere to go, I wandered around, too afraid to cry, afraid of what I'd break into if I let the tears welled Inside of me come rolling down.
The dazzling lights of the hotel across the streets had gotten my attention, and with my situation at the moment, I had nowhere else to go but to spend my income for a month in a day.
"All work no play, makes Esme a dull girl" was what I held on to, I wasn't sure of living after today and what I thought would be the happiest day of my life turned out to be the worst.
I walked into the hotel, not minding the lustful gazes of the men at the entrance, my drenched appearance made me more pitiful. I walked into the lobby, still noticing the glares of the men around.
" Hey pretty girl, are you stranded, how about you spend your night with me," one of the men approached.
" No thank you," I replied and turned to the reception.
" Good day ma'am, how may I help you," she asked.
" I want to book a room," I said taking out my card from my bag.
" Do you want the VVIP suite, VIP, or just a suite," she asks again.
" I'll take the least of them, I said and watched as she wiped the card, handing me back the card.
" Enjoy your night ma'am," she greeted and turned to attend to another.
I made my way to the room, passing by a bar, why not drink to a stupor, I thought.
I was pretty sure Raina and Titus with his years of celibacy would still be together, so I walked into the bar, not failing to attract the gazes of the men seated.
My hair had dropped to its full length after the rain I was drenched in had washed away all the styling gel I'd applied to it. I was suddenly glad I didn't agree to cut it despite Titus' incessant talk about it.
It had been my father's favorite thing about me, he'd always braid them for me whenever he had the chance.
A streak of tears fell from my face when his thoughts crossed my mind again.
I settled down on a stool in front of the bartender, his gaze going over me for a moment before he handed me a tequila. I wasted no time in gulping it, before throwing the shot glass back to him.
" Do you mind giving me any good intoxicants, you see, my boyfriend Titus and my step-sister Raina, I found the both of them having sex in my bed today," I sobbed, feeling the tequila taking effect on me.
My alcohol tolerance was zero and I should have known better, taking alcohol was risky for me, and worse there was no one to take care of me afterward, but what else could go wrong compared to what had happened tonight?
I was handed a bottle of Balkan vodka, thanks to the Middle-aged man who sat beside me, I never thought I'd get my hands on any of these, and never had I thought that these were sold in bars like this, but what was a seven Star hotel without one of the most alcoholic drink in the world.
I took the bottle straight to my mouth, and I could feel almost immediately its effect taking place.
" Can I tell you what happened, you know what, my stupid step sister Raina, and Titus, I found them sleeping together, and you know what they did, they threw me out of my room, my fucking room," I sobbed taking in another gulp of alcohol.
" He looked me in the eye, standing stark naked in front of me, and called me useless because I'm a Virgin, tell me, is it bad to be one and I'd gotten him the lover's cake, and I had inscribed in front of it, asking if he'd be my first, but instead he stepped all over my love for him," I said in between tears.
I placed my head on the table in front of me and I continued to cry and sob incoherently to myself.
" Excuse me where's the restroom," I asked the barman when I felt the urge to ease myself, and he pointed where it was to me.
" Second floor to the right, there's an elevator In case of an emergency," he said and I nodded and stood up staggering towards the bathroom.
My legs wobbled and I stood close to the wall, holding onto it for support, my head buzzed strongly as continued to make my way to the bathroom, I pressed my thighs together, holding in the urge to ease myself.
I almost made my way to the women's cubicle, when I bumped into the body of a man in front of me.
" I, I, I'm so sorry, I apologize," and I turned to Walk away, before I stumbled again, this time, the both of us falling to the ground.
His musky perfume and his broad chest supported my figure. I heard him grunt again, and I rolled away from on top of his body, leading myself into the bathroom.
Resting my head against the wall, I felt my head clear for a moment, and I blushed at the thought of the men I fell on.
I'd run my fingers over the dark stubble on his cheeks, and his jaw, they were strong and his chest, I could say that they were stronger than the pillars of my life.
I stood up, and walked outside the restroom, when I saw him still sprawled out on the floor, unconscious.
" Mister," I called moving closer to him, I shook his body to the best of my strength but to no avail.
" Hey can you hear me," I said again, wondering what he might have drunk to have made him pass out like that.

Cassians's...My phone rang from the table in the distance and I scrunched my eyebrows in return.Only a few people had my private number, some of whom were my secretary and my Best Friend Andy.I picked up the phone and I saw that it was the secretary, she had strict orders not to call me except it was an emergency, and I could only think of one at the moment, there was a problem with the merger I'd sent her to complete." Good day Mr. Van, I'm sorry but the client refuses to sign the merger without your presence," her voice said over the phone." Where are you, I asked,"" At the hotel adjacent to the company," she replied.I wanted to ask why she chose the hotel instead of any good restaurants or a meeting house, but I thought against it." I'll be there," I said and hung up, looking down from the highest floor, only the bright lights of the hotel could be seen from a distance.I scrunched my eyebrows, the merging had been finalized and it was only left for her to hand the documen

Esme's...There was still no response from him and I stood up to go, the minute clarity I had was fading away and my senses were going back to being hazy." Please help me," he spoke for the first time and I stumbled back." Hey can you hear me, do you have a card," I asked but didn't get an answer.His face from up close was too handsome to ignore, so I checked into his pockets, seeing for any leads of who he might be when I remembered that I'd booked a room." What could go wrong in having a handsome drunk stranger stay in the same room with another drunkard overnight." I thought to myself and held him by the hand in the hope of lifting him up from the ground.But my feet were all wobble and I was depleted of whatever strength I had, with no other choice, I held his two hands above his head and embarrassingly dragged him to the elevator." Hey, you stupid man, do you know who I am, let me go" I heard a woman scream at a staff who stood in the middle of the route, blocking her from

Cassians's"She isn't her, she isn't your secretary" my head buzzed with various thoughts of how I'd fuck this girl in front of me.Her voice kept ringing into my ears and it took all my rationality to not pin her down on the door front.I never thought I'd be ridiculed to the extent of being dragged all the way from the first floor of a restroom to the last floor of a seven-star hotel.Nevertheless, I was grateful, I'd rather be dragged by this nimble soft girl to her room than fall to the scheme of that secretary.And when my head had hit the stoppage at the door, I flung my eyes open to see her hovering over me, dropping my legs in the instant to the floor.I grunted in pain, watching as she spoke to me. Her hair flowed rhythmically with her every movement. She knelt beside me and I could just watch with my eyes wide open.And I could swear that she looks cute when she was mad, the way she'd changed her words from me being a piece of shit when I gave no response to her words.

Esme...My whole life was ruined and at this moment I knew for a fact that even though Titus sleeping with Raina hurt, having a one-night stand with a man I saved who afterwards accused me of being a slut hurt more.I stared at the pitiful figure of myself on the floor, helpless and ugly, the hickeys and purple mark of my intimate sexual affair reflected Right in my face.I couldn't even recognize the face of the motherfucker I slept with.I stood up from the bed, gripping the sheets to the stains on the bed.The memories of last night came rushing to my head, from Titus to Raina, outside the rain, the bar and helping him before bringing him to the room with me, the sex, the harsh slap of reality on my face, and the way he had called me a slut.I fell to the bed, gripping the sheets tightly in my hands.The rush of emotion came at first like small mumbles and sobs, until I wasn't able to take it any longer.My head got fuzzier and the wracking lines of tears came rushing down my face.

EsmeHer vicious laughter filled my ears and the continuous laughter of victory infuriated me to my guts." What!" I asked, turning my face to look at her"You heard me right Esme, I killed her," she said again.My face was thrown into shades of pale and white, as I stared blankly at her." You're wondering how that's possible right," I just told her that you already started working as a whore and you keep sleeping with men, selling your body to them," she said again.And straightened herself back up and went back to meet Titus" Oh and I also told her that you weren't attending classes and that you have contracted AIDS from one of your usuals and that's what caused her heart attack," she laughed as she hugged Titus placing a kiss on his lips." You're not human Raina, you're fucking evil, do you know what you've done, you killed our fucking mother," I said standing up from the ground." Your mother Esme," she corrected." I'm your step-sister, our fathers are different, you've yours

Esme...Nine hours later, I woke up to the announcement of the flight crew. We were landing already and I sat up from my seat to a more comfortable position compared to the one earlier.The plane soon reached the runway and it lowered to stoppage." Please walk carefully, and welcome to Italy," the announcement came from the speaker of the flight attendant.I walked down the airstair of the plane to the tarmac, to the breeze washing over me, as if welcoming me to Italy.I halted a cab and headed to the nearest hotel, too stressed to think about anything, I just sat and enjoyed the ride while viewing the beautiful landscape of Italy.The cab stopped in front of a hotel, I alighted from it and paid before I walked into the hotel, the traumatic memories of my last hotel experience washed over me.I shook my head to put the thought away from my mind, walked up to the receptionist, and paid for a two-week reservation.I was handed the key card and thank goodness I took Italian Italian lang

Esme...I drove back to the resort and my stay was almost coming to an end, I only had a few days left before I moved out of the resort.I needed to find an apartment, not too chic but also not average, I needed one with the best security even if, mafias were too proud to launch attacks on lawyers, corporate business owners weren't, they were desperate and would do anything to get what they wanted.The hotel valet took the car key from me while I walked inside, exhausted and dehydrated, I needed to begin my search for an an apartment when I got back to the room.The food was served and I opened my laptop to begin my search.The options provided weren't few, but none of them suited my taste until I saw one, near work, high security and it was beautiful as well, I clicked on it and proceeded to pay the rent..............................................I began work at Ergo law firm the next Monday, having moved out of the hotel into my new apartment.I should have known for a fact that

Esme...The case had been scheduled for the day after, and as much as the shreds of evidence weren't ready, there was no evidence.The couple had planned to make the deceased fall from the building and sustain injuries that'd get him enough compensation to pay their son's medical bills, and he hadn't looked downward when he jumped not noticing the woodcutter beneath the ground which unalive him at the moment.It was the only logical explanation and Rita who sat opposite me widened her eyes in awe of how I made the explanations." I'm sure we'd win the case", she said and I nodded. We had to.The next day, I donned an all-black dress together with a black heel to court.All the families of the plaintiff were seated including the dying son.A triumphant smile played on her face and she once again took a ridiculing glance at me.Everyone else did what she did as well, looked at me like an amateur, too young to represent the Ergo and how the Ergo was losing its value, but all that soon ch

EsmeTodd stood beside his car, looking even more devastating than usual with a black tuxedo, his perfectly wavy hair, and his clean-shaven face.He could pass as a movie star on his way to the Oscars." Princess," Todd called as I walked down from the office terrace into his car." I know that you did well today," he said with a kiss on my lips.A tingle of surprise spread across my skin, mixed with curiosity at the white box in his hands before he slid it into his pocket.There was in the car, a pale blue rectangular box, large sized, tied with a silky bow that covered its logo.“Do not be distracted by its beauty,” I said in an internal soliloquy."I'll take you home to get dressed, I've gotten everything you need and if I haven't told me, I'll get it done for you," he'd said." I trust you," I replied with a smile and nestled closer into his body while the driver drove off.A hairstylist was in the room, I was sure I'd seen her somewhere on a billboard or magazine, but couldn't re

ToddThe thoughts of Esme telling me she loved me too, kept recurring in my mind.And when I asked if she'd marry me, she fucking said Yes.I realized that I looked at her as though she was the first person from whom I knew what love was.I'd die for her, and for me she would do same. To live and make sure I never fail was my life's motto but now it was to make sure I lived for Esme Ames, to give her the love we both never got.The driver ignited the car and drove back to the office, and I met Adam already waiting for me at the door." How's it going? where's he? I asked settling down."We've located where he is and we've kept tabs on his every move, however, we're refraining from letting him know that we know where he is, he's also making some small moves, to attack..."" What color do you think would fit Esme the best," I asked abruptly." Um Mr. Todd," he struggled to speak as he ran his hand through his hair."Never mind, I'm going to get her dressed for the fundraising, stay her

EsmeHe scrambled over to where I was. Holding my legs in his hands, he placed them on his thighs and held his hands around them." Here," he said as he massaged. I nodded my head incoherently as he worked his hands on them." Sorry butterfly," he drew me in and kissed my forehead before laying me back on the bed." How's it?" he asked." Better. How did you learn how to do those? Don't tell me you learned it during boring meetings," I said with a teasing chuckle." No It wasn't during Boring meetings, I created time for it, I met the doctor and he told me that cramps aren't inevitable, so I did learn for you," he answered and I stared amazed by his words." I'm sure you'll make a good dad someday," his head jerked at my words." I'll make their good dad, out babies, I'll make their good dad and you'll make the best mother," he corrected.I nodded and smiled at his words stretching my arms out for a hug.His face formed into a crescent smile as he took in and carried me off the bed."

EsmeI finished my session with the last client of the day and stood to work out of the office to my car.Rita had left with Adam after she was done rambling to me about how her wish of having two hot men to deliver food by her door." Paying in kind." Was what she tagged as her mode of payment.I laughed it off with a wave of my hands and sent her out of my office since she kept talking about Adam." Pshh, as if you and Mr. Todd aren't the same. I've seen the way he looks at you. it's as though he'd kill anyone who dares to stare longer than 3 seconds at you," she continued.I shook my head in rebuttal to her words and pushed her out of my office." I'm sleeping over at Todd's," I told her and was met with an eye roll." You're dating right, he's officially yours and you're his now," he squealed with my nod to her question." Future Mrs. Todd, I'll be your bride of honor Right, you're not allowed to have anyone and you'll throw the rose at me and the next weekend, Adam and I will get

Rita" I'm sorry, I should have known better, you can go in. And Rita…" he paused before continuing. “Meet me in my office.”I stifled a laugh at how she walked behind him.He must have thought he was dealing with amateurs, I could only imagine what would happen to him at the end of all this.The Todd I knew, if he didn't unalive him, his situation would be much worse than to be dead.The thought of Adam struck. He was really done for.I shrugged nonchalantly and walked into my office. Piled on the table were files of different cases." It is going to be a long day," I muttered to myself, settling down.The first of Mr Van's clients knocked on the door before opening the door.I welcomed him with a smile and at the end of his session I wondered if he really amassed his wealth with the little way he thinks." I'll have your case file sent over to the lawyer who will represent you in court," I lifted my brows at his startled expression as he stood up." No. No. No. No! That cannot happ

EsmeI was halfway through sleep when Rita's knock came on the door." Here's Adam's food," she said dropping the food beside me,“ I'll be off.”I slipped down from the bed, hungry, and walked to the food, there was it, Rita's favorite food.I picked up the spoon to eat when my phone rang." Todd," I muttered to myself, before picking it up." Hey amor, how're you," he asked, placing the phone to stand, I switched to video to show him the mood Adam made." It's nice isn't it?" I asked and he replied with a nod." I'm getting Rita's documents and evidence almost ready, I'll have them sent over in some days to your office and while we do that, do you mind going to a fundraising party with me," he asked, staring at me." When is it," my breath hitched for a brief moment when I thought about going out with Todd.That'd be a first, we've never had a chance to go public except for the court case." Esme Ames, it isn't safe to fall in love with him," I soliloquized and shook my head." Butt

Rita...I held the phone in my hand, sobbing into it. I couldn't go to Esme, to talk about it, and I could only sit in fear.The door was opened and I felt my body quiver before recollecting that Adam was on his way.I sat still, unable to move until he opened the door, and walked towards me" Hey," he called as soon as he settled into the room." I'm here," he said, holding my tear-filled face in his palm.I burst into tears, my body quivering at the thought of what had just happened.He rubbed his hands on my back soothingly, until I ran out of tears." What did he say?" he asked looking into my eyes.I shook my head, unable to repeat what I'd heard, instead, I handed him my phone and blocked out my ears from listening to it." I'll get him before you before dusk," he said and I shook my head in refusal." It'll ruin what Esme has planned, I trust you all and he probably thinks he's got it all, he thinks he's got the upper hand, and going after him will only boost his confidence," I

Rita" Are you sure you want us to do this?" he asked, as I pressed myself further on his body." I like you, you like me, there's nothing stopping us," I said." I don't like you Ri, I love you," he corrected and I smiled in return." We'll do that some other time, you're not feeling okay, and it's too early to set up a relationship on intimacy, I want you and you know that, he said and I nodded." Come, I'll put you to sleep, you've stared at me long enough," he added and I rolled down beside him, wrapping my hands to his waist, as much as its length could take me." Cara," he called and I looked up at him." What'd you plan to do with Zander," he asked and I looked up at him." Esme said to leave it up to her," I replied and snuggled closer." Let me know if you want anything done," he said and I nodded still in his embrace, nestling closer until I fell asleep.

Rita I stared across the room, at the man sitting a few meters away from me. " Adam," I called and he gave no response. I'd probably called him about a billion times today. I'd been fretting my sanity out since Mr Todd called to tell me that Esme was staying over with him for the night. The adrenaline-driven action I did a few days ago by breaking a man's hands came rushing back to my head and I thought about what it'd be like if he came to take revenge on me, I'd be dead before I could even throw a punch, no doubt. " Don't worry, I know you're worried about what might happen, so I sent Adam, he'll be spending the night with you," he said and I calmed my erratic mind, still to no avail, how was I supposed to sleep knowing that a man who looks more or less like Achilles was awake looking up me. If it had been another, that'd have been great but with him, he
