“Just kill me and get it over with already.” the bastard sitting before me groaned out In frustration.But no, I can't end his life just yet. People like him don't deserve easy death, they deserve a painful and slow one.At first when I entered his prison, I could hardly recognize him due to the amount of beating he had received when I was away tending to Kacie.Trust Amad to do a satisfying job on an offender. His body screams of excessive beating just the way I love it.He was strapped tightly to a chair with chains around his legs and wrist. His left eyes was swollen and his nose broken. He had a very deep cut on his right thigh. I smirk In satisfaction.A long table was kept closely to him so he could sleep whenever he wishes to. It was very considerate of Amad to think of his sleep, left for me, he wouldn't know what it feels like to fall asleep again.Well maybe eternal sleep.But judging from how swollen his eyes are, I doubt if he was able to have a nap. Not like I cared an
I spoke icily into the mouthpiece.I hung up after passing out my orders. I have been after this particular contract for seven months to be precise.Since I got wind of my uncle's intentions behind the shadows I decided to strike a deal with with Big life media conglomerate. BLM for short, which I will officially become their CEO in the next forty minutes.That's who I am. I have the power to get any work done at the comfort zone of my home.Normally, it wasn't supposed to take as much as seven months. But my bastard of an uncle was a step ahead of me almost giving me a hard time but thanks to my spies I was three step ahead of him.To get something, you have to stake something. Nothing goes for nothing.With an air of victory I walked back to the dining room but didn't expect to see what I saw.What gave her the nerves to leave the dining while I'm not done eating yet ?."Hey you." I beckoned on the maid clearing the table.Where's my fiancee?." "I don't really know sir, but I thin
"What are you doing here." His thick cold voice boomed behind me jolting me out from my reverie.I slowly turned to face him. I hadn't expected him back so soon, when I woke up from my long sleep he wasn't in the bed.My palms felt sweaty and cold against each other. I'm sure he's pissed off seeing me in his gallery.Before I could compose a very convincing excuse, he had kept the laptop in his hands on the bed and raised me up like I was a compressed air.He carried me away straight to my room and put me on the bed."Where did you go to ? You weren't on the bed with me when I woke up." I asked him slowly.He let go of me and stood up from the bed turning his back on me.I stared at him speechlessly.What is he trying to do ? Didn't he get my question.I was already trying to throw the same question at him but stopped when he began saying something."I went to take care of an urgent matter. And also forget about what happened yesterday.""Don't start nursing the thought that somethin
"Are you coming with me?." I asked him immediately we step into the elevator."Nah. I will pass, the torture they received from me is enough.""I might end up blowing their brains out if I should set my eyes on them. He said with a hint of anger in his voice.I stared at him unbelievably. It's so unlike Amad to miss something like this.One reason why I always entrust my prisoners to Amad, he tortures them to a near death state."Speaking of which. Did you notice anything suspicious?." "No. But there's a possibility he would strike when he sees you let your guard down." He answered twisting the button on his shirt."I ain't daft, I know what sort of human he is.""Tighten the security around the storehouse and this very mansion itself, and also keep a keen eye on my fiancee."I paused suddenly already regretting my decision to leave her all alone in the room.She was fast asleep when I got a call from Amad saying the prisoners were causing a nuisance.Come off it Zayn. You don't like
I walked gently down the stairs trying as much as I could to stifle in a smile. But it didn't work though, as a bright smile cover the whole of my face.I could tell from the way he shivered when I came out dressed in that gown that he was beginning to like me.Try as he might behave rudely to me always, he can't change the truth.Truth that could be very dangerous to you."Ahh. Get a hold of yourself Kacie."His warning that night was scaring, particularly his face."You must never fall in love with me, Kacie. The day you do, would be your end.” his warning kept ringing in my head and clearly it wasn't something ordinary that I could toy with.I continued walking slowly when the pain came again same way it did when I was at the pool. Except this one grip was tight caging me into the vast ocean of pain.I held on very tight to my stomach, my vision was already hazy at this point"Please... " I almost shouted when I felt an excruciating pain tear from my abdomen to my chest.I bent lo
It's been a week since we officially started dating. Somehow it feels strange because I hadn't expected him to quickly renege on his word, but all the same I'm glad things turn out this way.Seeing how he changed from being a hardened stone hearted beast to a loving angel. I might say I'm one a lucky girl tho it's still hard to believe.Despite all his pleas and constant nagging, I refuse to pack into his room. Partly because of continuous nightmare and also because I want to mentally prepare myself.Apart from myself I've never slept overnight on the same bed with someone, even when I was still living with Josh.“Common Kacie, could you please lend me a helping hand here.” I glanced up from my phone to see nanny Miriam struggling to arrange the dining room.“Sure. Just a minute.” I said standing up from where I sat checking out Zayn's pictures.Pictures that I had taken secretly without his consent.Weird right?I missed his face so much I decided to do the only thing I could do to
I woke up the next morning with a terrible hangover. Partly from the alcohol and the rough night between us.I spread my hands across the bed. To my dismay it was empty and cold.I opened my eyes slowly and truly he isn't on the bed.I ignored the banging hangover razing the whole of my head and head out of the room. The hallway looks empty.Where could he have gone to so early?I stroll down not knowing exactly where I'm headed to. I continued walking anyway.“I can see you're awake.”I turned around to see him standing a few feet away from me dressed in a well tailored suit. Even his haircut looks different, I guess he's in a conference meeting with his staffs.I closed the remaining distance between us.“Yes. I searched but didn't see you around so I decided to come check on you.“Sorry I didn't keep a note for you, just trying to fix a little problem.”I furrowed my brows. “Problem? Is it serious?”“Don't worry pumpkin.” he kissed me slightly on the cheeks. “I got it, in less th
The soft rays of sunlight slashing across my eyes could be so annoying.I was having a wonderful dream, but too bad I had to wake up.The faint smell of oud hung around the room. I squint my eyes a little around the room.This isn't my room, my bed isn't as hard as this. I stared drowsily at the bed as the memories of last night started flooding in.I sneaked out of the room in his shirt because my dress was destroyed beyond recognition. Thanks to Zayn.The only prayer in my head was not to get caught by his maids or guards or worse still his nanny.And it was a success. I turned the door knob and pushed it in.My room was how I had left it yesterday but...Something feels off. The room had a mixed scent of rose and lilac.And I definitely don't use lilac. Could it be that...No no no, get a hold of yourself Kacie. She's far away from you, it's just the maids who often comes to clean your room up.Yes it has to be the maids...I rushed into my bathroom and took a quick shower. The chi
“I'm sorry you're going where?” I eyed him over my bowl of popcorn.I was sitting down in the living room whiling away time playing games and eating popcorn all by myself when Zayn burst into the room telling me of his impending travel.“I'm going to Mexico for some important business. It's just going to last a week and some days and I will be back.”I snorted inwardly. If it had been when his hatred for me was still strong, I wouldn't even have noticed his absence.But now that I'm beginning to unravel how I can't do without him, he wants to go away on a work trip.I might break down if I keep on thinking about him going away for some days, how lonely and cold it would feel without him on the bed.How am I going to cope alone?I suddenly felt his strong arms around my fragile body engulfing me into a comforting hug.“Its okay if you don't want me to leave, I can postpone it.” I shook my head vigorously.“Don't even think of doing that, it's just going to be a week and some few days.
Recently her parents had lie low for reasons best known to them.But I wouldn't take chances, I would make sure I keep her safe from harm.Staring down at her smiling face, I could swear she was dreaming. I hope I'm the one she's dreaming of.I don't need to say much by the way, no one could make her smile the way I do.After much pleas, she finally gave in and packed in her stuffs to my room two days after our tour around the mansion.“Will you keep on staring at me all day long ?” she asked beaming at me.“If I could stay all day just staring at you, I would gladly do that.” I bent and gave her a peck on her forehead.“You know, you could still do that if you wish. But doing that will drain you of all your wealth.” “Is that supposed to be a threat pumpkin?” “How can I threaten the almighty Al-Zayn ?” she grinned jumping out of the bed.“I have to take a shower, my body reeks of kisses.”Before she could make it to the bathroom I gripped her by the waist.“Not so fast pumpkin, I sh
