His phone rang and he jolted himself towards the shelf by the bed and grabbed it. Swiping to the right, he quickly placed the phone on his ear. "How did I go?" He asked and hastily pulled the phone away from his ear, put the call on the loudspeaker, and held it towards Martha.

"The chemical composition of the two samples slightly varies in molecular mass," a familiar husky male voice spoke out of the phone.

"Bryan, speak English," John said as he rolled his eyes and tilted his head.

"Right… they are basically the same."

"You couldn't just say that?" John scoffed. "You know I will understand you but you always speak gibberish. You enjoy making me ask you to translate…" he blurted and cut the call, then looked at Martha and simpered. "He is such a jerk, but we need him so…"

"Do you know how many times I have told Bryan you are a jerk that I can't but work with?" Martha whined, lolling her head as she twisted her face. "You don't want to know… who knew you were hiding a slit-slammer in t

    "That was…" John squeezed the wheel and blinked his eyes. "I don't know what to say…" he glanced at her and set his eyes back on the road.She raked her hands through her hair with a smug smile plastered on her face and then tugged her hands between her thighs. "Are you wordless right now? Was it that good?" Her eyes bulged out as she turned her face to his and fluttered her lashes at him."Yeah, you can say that," he gave a shy laugh and turned his head out the window. "That was better than I remember," he added."Are you blushing right? " she poked his side and he jerked his head in her direction. His forehead creased, his eyes begged her and his voice thinned when he pleaded, "don't tickle me, please.""I am getting to know you, John, it's amazing how different you are from John," she cocked her head and reclined into her seat. "I love this," she sighed."What?" He asked and hung his head."This," she gesticulated. "You know, you and me, being vulnerably cute with each other and co

    "We're not that late are we," Alita simpered, looking out the window as they arrived at the hall for the party. "It's grand and scary," she muttered as her heart skipped a beat when the whole building came into view as he opened the door for him after the driver opened his door to let him out."We are late, Alita, but I don't regret it," he cupped her face in his hand and said, "I'll be right by you the whole time and we leave whenever you want." He turned to the driver and nodded, "you can go now." The driver nodded and left.Benson bower his hand then she put her hand into his and they walk up the stairs and through the giant glass door.For someone like Alita, just the entrance was a terrifying sight. She looked at him and he gave her an assuring nod. She smiled drawing from his confidence and Yanked her face forward with a smirk on her face, finding aplomb in the fact that everybody was looking at them, mostly her but no one knew who she was.Contrary to what she had expected, she

    'How the fuck did my shit get to the police?" Richie yelled as he scowled at Timmy, the lad he put in charge of the joint at the coffee shop. "Don't fucking stand there staring at me like a dummy? You should have some explanation to justify your mistake so don't get on my nerves with your silence. Go on, speak,” he propped his chin in his palm and blinked at Timmy."I-i don't know, sir, but I will get to the end of it before the end of today. Someone must have messed up under my nose. I will sniff them up and clean this up," Timmy pressed his lips together and balled his fingers into fists. "I assure you," a line set in his jaw, and his brows knitted as he stared straight at Richie."You know, I like Timmy. You're fierce and brave, hell you're staring right at me and saying that to my face, knowing I could put a bullet in your head and find somebody willing to do better than this," Richie coughed a dry laugh and bobbed his head sideways. "You better clean this mess or we're going to h

    "Are you sure he'd show?" Perry asked, Richie pushing his chin up. "You know he has been curled up in his cave. He doesn't even go to work and he's a workaholic. Why would you go to work every day when you are that rich?" He scuffed and raised his face to Richie in an anticipant stare."Shut your mouth and quit whining," Richie screwed his face. "How does your wife up with you?""She doesn't," Perry muttered, pale-faced as he held his gaze at Richie."He would not refuse my invitation," Richie said, with a proud smile on his face. "No one refuses the Prince," he lifted his hands in the air and his smile grew wider. He turned his face away as his smile suddenly sank to sneer. "No one but a grumpy old man that I happen to know," he rolled his eyes and bobbed his head. "If only you listen to me, our company would still be at the top but you always stubborn old brain brand with faded colors, and now you are back to me to fix it, like always. What would you do without me?""Look younger,"

    "Why were you looking at Mr. Perry Clarkson like you would snap his neck if you were sure no one was looking?" Alita said, trembling as she set her hands on his shoulder, while slowly setting herself on his cock. She gasped and squeezed his shoulders as she felt him fill her up. She felt a wave of painful pleasure course through her body and she only wanted more so she lowered herself completely, slightly going blind as she took his whole length while his width opened her up."Luke showed me a video of him paying some black dude to set me up so I really do want to snap his neck," he moaned as he savored the sensations the tight grip of her pussy worked into him."Okay, calm down. You almost gave yourself up out there… something Like wouldn't want," she whimpered as she started jerking herself in and down his cock as he reclined into the chair. "What about the cocky-ass prince," her brows knitted as she felt a surge of sweetness built up under her stomach. "Why don't you like him?"He

    "Why won't he wake?" Martha raised her hands in the air and cried to the doctor. "It's just a shoulder wound… he has been through worse and walked right through so why the fuck is he laying still and reading low on life support?""Calm down Miss," the doctor bobbed his hands in front of him as he gestured for her to stabilize her nerves. "We took the bullet out and shot him with serious antibiotics that managed to stabilize him as we try to find the antidote for the poison," he glanced at John."What do you mean by poison?" Terror overtook her face. She hugged herself and fluttered her lashes, fighting the urge to cry."Yes, the bullet was laced with a strong poison… nothing like like we have seen around here. We are still studying it while keeping him liberated and slowing down his heartbeat so the poison doesn't spread to the rest of his body," he pressed his lips together."You have to do everything you can to keep him alive. If he dies, you all go to jail because I brought him her

    "Hey there, Timmy," Richie said into his phone after giving the signal for his men to plant a substantial amount of coke in Benson's car. "Is it still kicking? That little toy I bought you last summer," he muttered.Timmy threw his eyes to his trophy sniper rifle sitting on a platter hanging on the wall in his office under the coffee shop. He smiled and said, "she's still kicking as good as she looks.""What's with you men of this age and naming every new toy a girl?" Richie whined, admiring the rings in his left hand. "Whatever…come over here with your girlfriend. I have a job that has to do with a check for certainty for you both. I'd like some people to stay dead after tonight," he shook his head sideways and pulled the phone from his ear and while looking at it in his hand, said, "Get here as fast as you can and find some high cool place to be at. In sending you pictures now." He sent three pictures to him as handed the phone to the bouncer that stood by the door, saying, "Can yo

    “Why did you go off on him like that? You squeeze me to calm down just so you can do it? That’s savage,” Benson whined as he threw his hands around Alita’s waist and pulled her closer to him. “By the way, what is all this wealthy woman act you are putting on?”“Don’t mind me. I’ve always imagined myself a wealthy, independent princess that talks down to proud men that sees women as instruments for pleasure rather than humans with feelings,” she blurted as she slowly bobbed her head in sync with how she swayed from side to side. “It is about time he got his ego shoved down his throat, don’t you think?”“I should be worried then,” he jerked his head back as his brows rose.“No, it’s you who has me feeling like a princess with this dress you bought for me. I suddenly feel powerful enough to say whatever I want to whoever I want even though I will probably get myself in serious trouble if I don’t get out of it soon enough,” she bit her lower lip, with a dreamy gaze on her face as she obse

    It took a few days for things to come back to normal between Alita and Benson. It almost felt like the getting-to-know each other phase of their relationship just with serious sexing and less conversations, and she was sleeping on the same bed with him, yet.Alita had changed a bit in about a month they were separated. She had gatherer enough money to start her dream styling firm to incorporate her into the fashion industry, where she had always believed she belonged, which meant she had no time for nannying, although it wasn't all that necessary because she was used to taking Julie with her already. The problem was that Benson missed her presence more at home.They managed and in no time, came back to full connectivity.Benson kept his break up with Alita away from his mother. He couldn't afford her drama. And she was going to scold him for letting Alita go.Alita too didn't tell anyone. Sarah thought her disappearance was because Benson impregnated his ex-wife. She was shocked when

    Benson stayed in his house almost emptying his bar. He switched his phone off so nobody would disturb him. He was devastated. He had been living a lie all the while. Many times, Sarah and Luke came to look for but he never came out. It didn’t look like he was in the house.He just had to call off their engagement. She went too far and he couldn’t live with it. He couldn’t help but imagine how his life would have been if Alita came out and told him she Julie was his flesh and blood.It was unbelievable. Chris had assured him that he was impotent and that they had tried everything but nothing worked. He had to know for sure and the only way to that is to go back to the beginning.For the first time ever since that day, Benson went out of the house. He went to the hospital to meet and confront Chris about what Alita had told. There had been too many lies and falsehood around his life in the recent days and knowing this one truth or lie, whichever it would turn out to be, would be liberat

    “I was scared you would leave me if I told so I didn’t. This is me as I am, covetous. I don’t regret keeping this away from you but I am sorry I did. I mean it when I say I would do anything to keep you with me forever, and this—this was something I thought I had to do. I love you and I don’t want to lose you,” he peered into her eyes. “Please don’t hate me. Don’t stop loving me. I there were many times I wanted to tell you but how does a man walk up to his dear love and tell her to forget about any dream of ever having her own children?”“I knew, Benson,” Alita looked down as she pressed her lips together. “I knew if I stayed with you, I wouldn’t have any children but it didn’t matter to me because I love you so I stayed. I got so wrapped up in my mind with jealousy and contempt that it escaped my mind. I felt threatened and intimidated by her that I let her get in my head with her selfish words,” she leaned of the wall and held her hands in front of her.“You knew. How?” Benson’s br

    The moment long waited for was there, and Alita wore a smile that evening as Charity stated she was leaving. It felt unreal that the whole ominous atmosphere was clearing already.“It is nice having you,” Alita waved her hand at Charity. “You can pop and high any time you want,” she lied.I don’t want to ever see you here again.As the door slid open, Alita shut her eyes and drew in a long breath, absorbing the relief in the air. She had missed the feeling. Her joy was cut short when she heard Charity’s voice.Haven’t you left?“I can’t go like this,” CHarity exclaimed, shaking her head as she shut her eyes. “I wanted to keep it to myself, but I just can’t,” she sniffled.Alita glanced at Benson, and he bobbed his head. “What are you talking about?” she held her hand to her chest.“He knows,” Charity pointed at Benson.Alita turned to Benson and batted her lashes numerously at him.“Know what exactly? Where are you driving?” Benson inclined his head and folded his hands across his che

    Alita was shocked to see the door slide open. Benson just walked to his room, and they were the only two people that could open the door.She balled her fist, waiting to see the figure standing in front of the door. She couldn’t see the face of the woman but as the door slid wider, she recognized who it was.Freaking Charity!Charity was the least of people she could expect to see. Many questions raged through Alita’s mind but the most outstanding was how she could open the door.“Benson,” Alita Bellowed crossing her hands on her chest as she jotted her hips, giving Charity a once over.“Yeah, babe,” Benson answered from his room.“You have a visitor,” Alita pushed her lips forward as she swayed her body from side to side.“I don’t have plans to—“Hi there,” Charity flickered her fingers in the air, smiling excessively as she looked over at Benson. “I let myself in,” her eyes went round. She looked around and observed the living room. “Things have changed here, haven’t they?” she snic

    At Sarah’s wedding, Alita wasn't the only one wishing to enjoy the bliss of a wedding day and, after it, the certainty that comes with elevating their commitment to a more permanent situation.Benson had the intention to propose to Alita the day he came back and met her in a pool of blood. He had planned it all head in his head. The band, everyone involved.He wanted it to be a prestigious surprise. She had always said she wished she was a princess, and he wanted to make her feel more than that. She was his queen, and he wanted to show her that she deserved to have everything she wanted.Benson felt he was ready to move forward with their relationship. She was perfect for him, and he needed to ensure that she remained his till the end of time.Before the morning he had intended to propose to her, he had planned how everything would go with everyone he thought necessary to involve. He would ask her out for a date and then surprise her when she got out of the house with her favorite ban

    "Let's go on a date," Benson said pouring wine into two glasses form them. "We haven't gone anywhere, we haven't gone out ever since…" his eyes snapped close as memories of almost losing Alita to the jaw of death flashed through his mind–not sonething you wouldn't want to remember, not even randomly. "What do you think?" He asked.Alita's face lit up and she giggled sharply. "Are you serious right now?" She squinted at him as she extended her hand and collected her drink. She gingerly whirled the glass before a sip and moaning to the taste that surprised her. "This is amazing," she nodded and took another sip. "What in God's name do I say to that?" She pursed her lips and raised her chin, playfully scowling at him."I don't know," he laughed softly, looking the other way as set himself on the arm of the chair she was seated on."You must be high," Alita jabbed her finger into his side and he yelped moving away. "Should you when ask me about it? You could have surprised me," she scrunc

    126Julie was Alita's only company as the days went by. As expected, everyone around her was distant. She would sit on the bed in Julie's room and talk to her, even though she knew Julie wouldn't understand what she was saying, it was comforting that she could talk to someone about the burden in her heart and how everyone all her loved ones were avoiding her.Sarah blocked Alita and cut all contacts from her. Alita went to their apartment and saw that Sarah had changed the lock. She went to Luke's house but didn't find anybody at home. It was while walking back to Benson's place that she realized they would have gone for their honeymoon.They say no mother could hate her own but it wasn’t looking like it for Alita. She hadn’t heard from her mother ever since her confession. He called but got no answer, texted but got no reply. She tried to go and see her at Chris’s apartment but couldn’t. One time, she was standing right in front of the door but froze when she raised her hand to knock

    Dumbfounded and dwindling between anger and confusion, Benson cleared his throat. The place went absolutely silent. “Why didn’t you say anything about it? You could have told me. I feel betrayed right now,” he face-palmed. “I just want to go home,” he breathed heavily. “I can’t believe it at all. I just can’t believe our friendship was built on lies all this while. We promised to…” Sarah whined and cried. “All this while, Alita, I thought we were best friends. I told you everything and I thought you did the same,” she turned and wrapped her hands around Luke, looked up at him, and muttered, “please take me out of here.”“Please don’t leave me like this,” Alita extended her hand as she moaned. Her throat patched as she watched Luke lead Sarah out of the room. She was too weak to move and she couldn’t possibly follow after Sarah when Benson was there also preparing to leave.“Let’s go home,” Benson looked at Alita with pain in his eyes. She wiped her face and dragged herself up.Ivy sa
