Hayden’s P.O. V

The glaring orange lights of the setting round sun graced my office. What would have once been the epitome of my day, now was just a nuisance to my rather uneventful day. The stack of documents that had been waiting for my mark of approval mockingly stared back at me, at my lack of attention. I haven't been able to get anything done, since the last week.

Her words replaying mockingly inside my head, adding salts to my already bruised ego. ' Huh!' 'So this was how it felt to be rejected.' I scoffed, recalling how I even downgraded myself by begging her to sleep with me, even went as far as doubling her offer, not that she was worth that much. I have gone out with famous and the most stunning of women, slept with the top models and actresses, have them at my beck and call yet, out of all these stunning women, I chose to be a wuss for her, a nobody. The IDIOCRACY I portrayed!

It was as if an ick had set off in my brain. Swiping everything off angrily at my desk, I g

    The ding of the microwave brought my nose back up and out of my books that were splattered everywhere in the living room. My rice and curry were ready! Taking my nose out of the book I was reading, I lowered my legs from the chair bringing them to the warmth of my slippers as I made a beeline to the kitchen, where the end to my day’s hunger was awaiting me. The only sound that could be heard in the house being that of the pit patters of my slippers, and well the biological mechanisms of my inhalation and exhalation process. I was all alone in the house. I have been alone for a week now. The only traces of Mr Evans the creep being the dirty dishes I found in the sink, a week ago! And how did I know that the creep hasn’t been home for a week? For one, my dirty underwear has been staying wherer they were supposed to be and two, I hadn’t heard or seen him around, both him and Sarah. To make sure that what I had observed was true, I even went as far as asking the neighbours whether they h

    Lord! This was not happening! This was not happening! My insides were screaming at me. My eyes fluttering shut, hoping to convince myself that this was just a bad dream and that everything was going to be alright once I woke up. But the thing poking at my entrance brought me straight back at reality. Turning my head towards the door, hoping that someone would barge in and save me but that was just wishful thinking. If I wanted to get out of this mess, I had to be my own saviour. I chose to take a leap of faith and so I got back to my fidgeting, hoping that I would make the knot loose. Clearly my fidgeting was angering him as he stopped what he was doing and came at me to threaten me, his hands at my neck, choking the life out of me “Don’t make me drug you, am trying so hard to be nice here.” If it were in another situation, I would have laughed at his face, but now I was really questioning the sanity of this man. I paused, not wanting him to know what I was up to, but mainly also b

    Third person’s POVDark clouds engulfed the sky, its atmosphere, eery, as if signifying of something coming, somethingformidable. He sat there in his car, which was parked two houses away, not to cause any alert to the neighbours, watching. How he found himself there, he didn’t know. Maybe it was because he couldn’t get any work done for the day. It had been going on for the past few weeks, with him being the early bird in his office, only to lay around idle, daydreaming, about the woman, who turned him down, squashing his ego in the process. Just a glimpse of her and I would be fin

    An hour had passed since he went to receive his call, which reminded me, I didn’t even know his name, which was weird considering the number of times I had met him, which was twice! Huh, okay, maybe not so weird!His absence gave me ample time to explore the living room and kitchen area which were both located at the ground floor, but separated by a wall. Not like the modern open kitchen design. Running my eyes through every little corner of the house, leaving no stone virgin, as I ate up allthe details put into the making of the house. The plants used to add thegreen touches of colour, the paintings and how the c

    Why did I do that? I questioned myself, my body wrapped in the soft fluffy orange and gold embraided duvet given to me by Hayden. Did I make him angry? I kept on asking with clearly no answers to be given. The huge giant clock plastered on the wall opposite from my body, telling me that it was three o’clock in the morning. Thank God I had no class today. My eyes felt heavy and swollen. It had been a long and exhausting day today. Both Mentally and emotionally. I had to figure out where to stay tomorrow but for now, I allowed myself to be engulfed by the safety and warmth of my bed, after ensuring that the door was well locked and sealed.****************I held on to my duvet as the dewy morning air came knocking at my window, an aftermath of the heavy downpour that had transcended the night earlier. Clutching the soft feathery blanket tighter, as it was my only weapon against the harsh chilly morning. I twisted and turned, unwilling to get out of the comforting bed, praying that whoev

    My face scrunched up in both confusion and anger. What was he implying? I couldn’t believe that he could be such a sly fox, even after giving me the impression that he was a good man, making sure I was well fed and no longer tired, only to request me for that thing! My body stiffened up with anger. Taking a deep breath to cover my nerves up and loosen my already stiff muscles. I slowly turned to face him, careful not to give my anger away. “What is this deal that you are talking about?” Earlier that day... Hayden’s P.O.V I stepped out of her presence headed towards the hallways, my body feeling more and more heavier as the distance between us got greater. But I had to answer this call. Colins was calling in the middle of the night, meaning it was something of huge importance. Making sure I was far from prying ears; I pressed the green button. “What is this am hearing about sending cleaners at XXX street, to clean up shit that I had no idea about!” His piercing voice, made me

    It had been a week now ever since I and Hayden started aboding together and surprisingly, it wasn’t that bad taking our earlier encounters together. I cook and clean, he eats and gives me shelter in return which I was very much appreciative of. Recalling the day he made me the offer. ‘Do you want to live with me Bella, he said his whole attention on me, his eyes tracing every bit of motion I was making as he awaited my answer in anticipation. Thinking that he hadn’t convinced me enough. He started, “I know that you do not have a house right now, how about you stay with me plus you make amazing food. I want a full time cook in the

    MATURE CONTENTS AHEAD!! The air was thick with lust. I could scent my arousal, pretty sure he could too. His intense lustful gaze told me so. “Come here little girl!” He ordered leaving no room to say no. My heart pumped, as I found myself walking towards him, my feet heading towards where he sat, with no command whatsoever from my sensible brain to abort this mission. I found myself near his sitting, awaiting his next command. What the hell was I doing! I internally screamed. “Sit” He barked his orders, once again giving me no room to deny as he took hold of my waist andsettled me o

    “Adrian! Hayden?” I called out frantically to my four-year-old and husband. I continued searching the vast expanse of the sprawling mansion that was our Italian holiday home, my eyes dotting arounds in the hopes of finding them. ‘Where were they?’ I asked myself. One minute, they were with me in the bedroom, patiently waiting for me to get our three-year-old girl ready and the next minute they had completely vanished. The ginormous mansion did not make it easy for me either. “Chiara, hang on to mommy okay. Let’s go find your dadda!” I cooed softly at my little bundle of joy. Her mesmerizing grey eyes shone brightly as she gave me an ear to ear grin happily throwing her arms in the air. Shifting my body to accommodate her small frame in my arms, I kissed her cheeks before resuming my search for my other child and husband. “Dadda! Dadda!” Chiara continued chanting softly, her eyes on the lookout for her favourite human, her dad! She was such a daddy’s girl, even I sometimes got a litt

    “You are leaving?” Lillie asked sadly as she watched me finish packing my bags. Her look was so disheartening, I felt guilty knowing that I was leaving her alone even though she was going through a lot; with her pregnancy and the break up. She hadn’t told me the full story yet, but I suspected that there was another woman involved from the little glimpses of her history she had given me. However, I was still glad, with the help of the therapist we had gotten, she was starting to be herself once more. Hayden was at first adamant when I suggested the idea but after a slight push he agreed. “Yes,” I looked at her with pity. “Listen, if you want I could-” “No, no, noo!” She cut me off, grabbing my hands. “You have already been through a lot, you need a break.” She lovingly hugged me, her hands making sure I never moved a spot. “It is okay, don’t cry. I will always facetime you everyday.” “I know! I know! I am just going to miss having you physically, but you promise you would be back, r

    “You sent her here, pregnant! Are you nuts!” I yelled at the metallic phone, the end speaker sighing in regret. “I know, I know- but she insisted and you know how she is.” I breathed to calm myself down. If he wasn’t my dear friend, I would have murdered him by now. “You know brother you do not need to worry, I know how to take care of my woman. I am always right behind her.” He said with sadness in his voice which made me question, what the hell was up with them. I had definitely noticed the tension and longing in his voice, even though he thought he had carefully hidden. “What is going on between you two? Hang on!” I said, cutting off the line as I had noise approaching the mini office I had at this house. “Yes!” My heart rate calmed down a bit when I noticed that it was just my Bella. “Bambi! My love, what are you doing here?” I asked as I stood up to go and embrace her, she just gave me a tired smile before coming to sit on my lap. It had been a week ever since that incident, a

    The air hung heavy with palpable discomfort. Each passing second, felt like it had stretched to an eternity. I pulled my dress further down as if it wasn’t low enough already. I refused to stare back at Lillie's eyes. I did not want to see the betrayal in them. The ground was interesting enough for me. “Hey, how did you know I would be here?” Hayden broke the silence as he went ahead to embrace his daughter. “Collins told me,” Lillie answered, distractedly as I felt her blue orbs pierce through me. “He shouldn’t have done that. That was a dangerous mistake after he knew what this night was abou-” “I know,” Lillie cut him off, “I was the one who insisted. I wanted to come and comfort you!” Her blue eyes were back to me, questioning me. “How long had this been going on?” Lillie asked, the question directed at me. I pulled my eyes away from the ground as I returned back her stare. Oh my God! I had hurt her. Her eyes were teary, as she looked at me in betrayal. “Lillie, I swear-”

    In the hazy realm between wakefulness and sleep, I could hear loud creaks from a distance. I found myself drifting like a passenger in a moving vehicle, the sensation of motion pulling me further away from consciousness as if journeying to some distant destination. To where, I do not know. I slowly woke up, feeling groggy, only to find myself sitting on a man's lap. Startled, I let out a loud scream and fell backward onto the floor. My heart raced with confusion and fear. "Shh... Calm down my love, you are safe now" I heard a voice say softly, pulling me out of the so-called fog of thought. Cold but hard hands patted me softly on my head pulling me back up, in turn I could feel my nerves unwinding. “Hayden?” I softly called out meeting his beautiful green eyes. They were lowered, watching me attentively and concerned. His eyelashes formed a curtain over them, partially hiding the mesmerizing shade of green. If only he could fall back lower. I thought to myself, then I would get a

    His men were all stoic, showing no sign of emotions on their faces as they guided me to who God knows where. I keenly took in all the doors and corners of the hallways, hoping that I would eventually get a chance to gain my freedom back. However, that felt like a dream, considering the hasty pace the men were walking. In a jiffy, I was being pushed inside a room that looked similar to where I had been imprisoned before but much smaller. The other ten? If I had counted properly went ahead to surround all the corners of the damned small room, making it seem much smaller that it was already. The others remained outside. Holy molly! How was I going to get out of here, if the security was this tight! Ryan, who I presumed was their boss now, went ahead, perusing and scrutinizing every corner and invisible dust speck, before nodding his head satisfactorily. I guessed that this was where we would be staying for the night. The atmosphere was silent among us. Not a word, not even a buzz of a

    When, they came back, not a minute later, the worlds had turned. Hayden was no longer the one in restraints, instead, Lorenzo was, and he was laughing! “Well done! Well done son! Just like how I taught you! Never let them know your next move!” He congratulated, smiling ... proudly? The men in the room had also been replaced, basing my judgement on the unfamiliar faces. “Where had the others ran too?” I inquired myself, blinking my eyes several times to get used to the new found light. It was not after a minute, that my eyes caught on to the lifeless bodies, lying on the floor with a hole on their heads. One who was next to me, had his eyes wide open, but they looked lifeless. I screamed at the horror before my eyes, my heart skipping beats. I felt like vomiting, as the acrid metallic smell of blood and death was too much too handle. I could feel the two pairs of dark eyes, molesting me, with a click of disdain following me. “She doesn’t know who you are, does she?” I could hear Lor

    “Well, Well...well,looks like you two have finally met. The chloroform was not that strong after all.” A rich and harmonious voice graced my ears, with it vibrating at the end as it closed the distance that was between us. The sound was so well spoken and warm, if I didn’t know any better, I would have been entranced by it, hoping to crawl towards it for warmth. However, I could also sense the extensive cold undertones, tones that were so sinister yet hidden carefully within that soothing voice. I do not know why, but suddenly my heart was running a mile. It felt like, at any moment, it would burst from my chest. My body had also gone cold, seemingly the blood that was running in my veins had been wiped dry. The air also felt sinister, it was as though the devil himself had joined us. My head ambivalently shifted towards the frame of the man that had just made his presence, wondering whether it was wise letting him see my fear. What met me, the moment my eyes reached his eyes, was
