DICE"Sir, please. You cannot be in here." The doctor stood at the entrance, his voice shaking a bit. I looked over his shoulder to where the nurses were now setting my wife on the hospital bed. Then I looked back at him."And why is that?" I asked, tilting my head to the side. He cleared his throat."Aside from the fact that it is a policy, being in here with her in this kind of condition may lead to complications. I suggest you just wait outside here, Sir." He pointed towards the chair in the private waiting area.One of the nurses gasped then, "Her pulse. I cannot feel her pulse, doctor."The doctor's eyes widened at the same time which my chest tightened with fear. Then without anymore words, he slammed the door shut in my face. I did not even make a fuss about it, starting to pace about the waiting area, hating how scared I was right now. I could not remember the last time I had shown any signs of fear.Anything which involved Liya caused me to act way differently than I usually
DICEThree days later, Liya was yet to wake up. She just lay there, still and very much unconscious, causing me to worry about her to the point I felt I would lose my mind while worrying.Her face was getting paler. So, so pale that I wondered if she was even getting enough blood circulating through her due to the numerous bandages wrapped around her.I had asked Doctor Sam if she needed blood transfusion or anything of the sort. He just mildly laughed before going ahead to assure me that she was getting enough blood circulation, and therefore there was no need for a blood transfusion. I accepted what he had said half-heartedly.Just like I had promised, Liya had been taken back home. Doctor Sam now attended to her, and every single thing which she needed to survive was set up for her. Reason being that I always wanted to be around her, and I could not live at the hospital. I mean, I could—because of her—but my status would not allow me.We had made a brilliant ward of an ordinary gue
LILIYAIt was dark. Really, really dark; I could not see a thing. It was painful, too. My head was throbbing and my entire body was numb.But the most painful part was that I could not see. The world was blank, and I could not seem to do anything to rectify it. I was helpless, immobile, I felt caged.I could feel a tear roll into my ear, because I lay on my back. Then, after some seconds of shedding tears, light illuminated the room. It was too bright. I tightened my shut eyes, and when I opened them to peek at what had interrupted the darkness, my eyes met my mother's viscous ones.I was scared shitless. She was definitely here to torture me because I had allowed Papa to die. I thought that I would find peace, away from them when I died. I was so wrong. Ma stood a few inches from me, her eyes blazing with fury. I had nowhere to run to. It was like I was trapped in 'God knows where'. I wanted to speak, I really did, but my mouth felt too heavy to open. It hurt everywhere, and badly.
LILIYAI lay there, speechless for some minutes after Dice left. The doctor turned to Devin after a while and said, "I'll do some checkups on her later, she has lost memories from the last few years. I will check if it's temporary or permanent, also if it would affect her cognitive skills. You two can catch up for now."With that, he moved out of the room as well. I was left curious. Ineeded to know what happened to me, but first, I needed to try to sit up or something.I started to pull myself up. I used my right elbow to prop myself up first and was about to go further when the auburn hair guy reached me in three strides."Don't. You look like you are in a lot of pain from just doing that. You should rest for sometime." He suggested, gently pushing me back on the bed. I allowed him to push me back, just because it was actually so much pain trying to get up."What happened to me? It's obvious that I did not simply fall from running around in the hallway with Dice. So what really hap
LILIYA"Does that ring a bell, princess? No one would ever be able to make you feel like that with just a kiss. It's just a subtle reminder, maybe it would also help to bring your memories back." Dice said to me, his face still very close to mine.I licked my lips shamelessly, which got him staring at them again, and I asked, "When did we get married Dice? And why?"He did not say anything for the first few seconds, after which he leaned off me and heaved a sigh. "It's not very romantic to hear. I'll save that piece of information for later."I could have stomped my foot if I could feel them. "But Dice! I want to know now." I whined. He shook his head no. "You can't know about it, princess. Not for now, I can't have you losing that adorable spark in your eyes when I walk into the room."He was indirectly saying that we did not get married in good circumstances. I cracked my brain for what could be the possible reason for me marrying Dice, or better still, him agreeing to marry me aft
LILIYAI faced the mirror while Jane stood behind me, tying the ropes used to hold my bikini in place. Seeing as I last remembered myself being 17, I was truly amazed by the curves that stared at me in the mirror.I was not this curvy a month ago—even if everyone said otherwise—in my head I had stopped being 17 only a month ago. My body made me feel grown though, contradicting my brain, so I had a love-hate relationship with it.Jane had just finished tying the ropes securely at my back and as she moved away, I started to strike a pose to boost my confidence. She hooted in approval from where she stood beside me, causing me to blush."Oh my God, stop." I told her, tapping my reddened cheeks with both palms as if that would reduce how hot both cheeks were. They did not help in any way, but I did not drop my hands."You are so sexy, I knew this color would look good on you." She appraised, clapping her palms giddily. I took a quick glance at myself in the mirror again. She was not lying
DICELiya's curves were softer than I recalled while in my grip now. I did not even have her underneath me… yet, but I was already hard. She had probably forgotten how much I hated it when she flaunted her lithe body out here in the open. I would just be doing a little reminding."Please let me down, I don't want any trouble." Her small voice came. Of course, my pants tightened just because of those simple words. This woman had me under a spell."Oh, but you got trouble anyways. You will just have to face the music." I told her, unable to resist the urge to squeeze her ass. When I did, she sucked in a breath, which got me even more turned on. Liya still thought she was innocent. I was about to show her that she was not a baby anymore. I took that innocence away from her.We got to my room after a while of walking with her, and as I pushed the door open, she wiggled in my hold. "I'm not going in there with you." She informed me. I scoffed, shutting the door behind us before going to s
LILIYADice was looking at me like I was the only woman in the world. Not just at my breasts, he was looking straight at me. It made me feel giddy, but strange still. This was not the Dice I knew as my best friend. He was a completely different man, like an upgraded version of my best friend.And I needed him so badly."Touch your titties for me, princess." He coaxed, and I did not hesitate, cupping my breasts and rubbing them sensually while I looked straight into his eyes. Until he dropped his gaze to my breasts, watching every rub. I proceeded to begin to twist my nipples, which caused his pupils to turn dark as night as he watched me.I decided to take this up a notch. Maybe I had never done this before, but I had watched a few clips, so the experience was enough.I brought my breasts up to my mouth, they were not huge or anything, but just big enough to reach my lips—the nipples, that is. I sucked on a nipple lightly, and Dice groaned, shutting his eyes for a split second like he
EIGHT MONTHS LATER Liya had a tear rolling down her right cheek as she gazed at the child in her arms. He was hers. Perfect, a bundle of joy, and most of all, utterly and undeniably hers. She thought she would burst of happiness just by watching him wiggle and whimper in her arms. Was this the love of a mother they spoke of? Just a few hours ago, she thought she would definitely give up due to the amount of pain she was passing through while pushing the baby. Dice had held her hand while she pushed, encouraging her to push for him, and she tried, heaven knew she put in her last strength to get the baby out. She did it. He was here now, even if his dad wasn't, at the moment. She already missed him, and she wanted to see how proud he was of her, because it was always there in his eyes—how much he appreciated her strength. She had missed that look in his eyes, because she had fallen unconscious immediately after the baby was all the way out. The nurse said he had stepped out sometime
LILIYADice immediately pressed his lips to mine, kissing me like I was his oxygen. I knew, because I felt that way too. I kissed him back with as much affection, pouring all my love into the single kiss.We kept going at it until I was nudged onto the bed, and I started to protest right away."Dice…""I know you're wet for me already, princess. Open those legs." He spoke hoarsely against my ear, and ever greedily, I forgot why I did not want this to happen in the first place and my legs were wide open in no time.Because I was not wearing any panties under my nightgown, his fingers met my most intimate part directly, causing him to groan."What a naughty girl…" He mulled, then slammed his middle finger inside me to the hilt. My lips parted in an ‘O’ and stayed like that as his long digit pumped in and out of me without mercy. I was already close to release, so, so close… I could already feel it…He pulled his finger out of my pussy, leaving me needy as fuck and I grabbed his hand, tr
DICEI did not have a good feeling about leaving my wife alone with her bitter sister, Inessa. It was why I rushed to finish everything I had to promptly take care of on time, and before evening, I was on my home.As I drove, I could not help but recall that the contract was ending in a matter of days. It was something that I had been trying to avoid, but it was simply impossible to do so now. It was so close, and even if Liya had not spoken about leaving me in a while, I still had my worries. I could not imagine her leaving me. I just refused to think of it.I was almost close to my house when my phone rang. It was Ethan."Hello—""Boss, Henri! Trevor, actually or whatever. He is… the other men told me that he's inside your wife's room right now and he wants to… he's about to shoot her… I'm on my way upstairs, I—"Boom!And then the line went dead. A fucking gunshot. I had just heard a gunshot, and now the line was dead? My wife… Trevor…"Ethan? Ethan?"I flung the phone to one of th
LILIYAI wanted to cry so bad, but I could not even bring myself to do it. Yet another person who did not want me. My own mother gave me away without thinking twice.I stared blankly at Inessa as she went on and on about our past, and it was only when she called my name loudly that I jerked back to present."Where did you go?" She asked me, rubbing my exposed arm in a comforting manner. I just smiled slowly, unable to quite get used to this side of my sister."I was here all along…""Was not." She retaliated, giving me the stink eye. I chuckled. "I should start the story over again. I was just telling you about the thing that led to me killing Ma's sister and you dare not pay attention?"Well, how could I not pay attention to that now?"Oh, I must have missed that. Tell me all about it."And so she did. Inessa loved to tell stories, and I already knew that asking her to repeat herself would not be much of a problem; she was chatty like that.She had killed Rosa's sister in self defens
LILIYAWe returned home that same day, late at night.Dice and I had just finished taking a steamy shower together, in his room, and I was busy drying my hair with a hairdryer while standing in front of the vanity mirror when my phone beeped, indicating a new text message.I peered into the device on the table from where I stood. It was an email. The first person who came to mind was Papa. Yes, I got work emails a lot too, but for some reason I did not think that this email was work related.I had obviously been staring at the phone for a long period of time, because Dice was suddenly in front of me with his hand waving in front of my face.I blinked twice, then looked up at him. My eyes did not stay up for long, though. They trailed down his shirtless, taut body and wandered down…"My eyes are up here, princess." He taunted and I looked away from his body with the speed of light. He quietly chuckled at this and stepped forward to tilt my chin up so I was facing him. He continued, "Or
LILIYA "She's lying, Papa. How could you believe her? She made up these evidences and you immediately believe her? She's useless and dumb! How could she know all these things all of a sudden?" Inessa yelled, and since I was done playing nice and trying to cover up her ass, I pulled out some more files and walked up to Papa, then chucked the laptop into his hands. "See for yourself, papa. Now, why would I lie about a thing like this?" I questioned and crossed my arms over my chest as I kept my eyes on Inessa. In no time, I could feel Dice's presence behind me and I naturally leaned back into him, causing him to wrap a protective arm around my waist. Rosa's eyes immediately went down to the hand wrapped around my waist and when she looked back up at me, I could not read the emotion on her face. She was not even defending her daughter, which shocked even Inessa. I could see her shock from the occasional glances she threw at her mother and squinted eyes from time to time. Rosa never loo
LILIYA"After this truth, I will leave your lives forever. I know for a fact that it would make you all super happy if I left." I spoke with a lot of bitterness in my tone. Inessa rolled her eyes at once and spat,"Why don't you just get on with whatever you want to say and stop making a party out of it. As you can see, I'm all dressed to go out." She informed me, making a gesture towards her clothing. Dressed in a skimpy dress with heels and lot of jewelries to complete the dress, Inessa really looked like she had somewhere to be. But where could she be going, dressed like that? I shrugged in my head; it was not like that was any of my business. I only smiled, though the show of emotion did not reach my eyes. Only if Inessa knew that she would not be going anywhere for days if I revealed this truth.I did not try to keep them in suspense though, as my parents… or parent and his wife, already had gigantic frowns on their faces."I'll just get on with it." I spoke, then began to take
DICEAll the air left my lungs as soon as Brandon said the words. I waited for sometime to see if he would take his words back, or laugh, anything that would show that he was not serious about this. But Brandon's expression remained the same, as serious as ever."What do you mean by this?" I asked him, my fingers rapping against the table as I struggled to remain calm. I could act like the position of a Mob Boss meant nothing to me as much as I wanted, but in truth, I knew that I totally abhorred watching Rex Corp lose more respect as the days passed, I hated watching the people complain every single day, I absolutely hated watching Rex Corp slowly crumble just because of my decision. It was not that I could choose taking back the position over wiping off Liya's family, but still.Brandon sighed, then ran his fingers through his hair and watched me for a few seconds, intently, like he was looking for something. I did not care what."I was wrong to take the position from you in the fi
DICEShe did not protest when I lifted her off the ground and carried her in my arms, bridal style, moving towards the stairs. She was still sobbing into my shirt, and I did not dare interrupt. She had every right to let all her pain out, even if I personally felt that the people she was crying over weren't worth it one bit.It was the first time I had seen her break down completely; with such a defeated look in her eyes. The results had completely broken her spirit, and while I felt very bad for making her feel like this, I also knew that this was unavoidable, and she could either choose to know this now, or later. She would still learn of it one way or the other.We arrived at my room and after unlocking the door with one of my hands which was underneath her, I walked inside. Then, I laid Liya on my bed, covering her with the duvet before going over to the side to lie beside her.We just lay beside each other—her, avoiding my eyes like they were plagues and me, unable to take my eye
