That night, after Caroline had served dinner. Lucas went to his study, probably to complete some unfinished work he brought home. His study was still in a separate room inside his bedroom apartment. I could hear him talk in a whisper and loud as well. I received a message to show up at the Agency tomorrow for an audition. Our company had just secured a slot to appear in a reputable fashion magazine. It was said that the company had not secured such a deal since the old manager went into office.

Thanks to this new manager, with this development she’d proven that her management will be a good one. Massages have been sent to all models to appear for an audition one who qualifies would be in the magazine. Before, when Bobby was my manager he would have maneuvered for me to appear on the magazine as the best in the company. But now it's not so. I am sure he’d suggested that the new manager made it as an open ballot for all models in the agency. His intention is for me to fail, so he could

    The agency was booming as usual and maybe a bit crowdy because of the number of models that came for the audition. My bodyguard was walking closely with his black suit and shade covering his eyes. He walked so closely, and I couldn’t tell him to stop because of what had happened earlier. When we were close to the agency building, I told the driver to drop me on the road so I won’t attract any eyes. I tried to persuade him not to follow too close, since he had refused to stay back with the driver. He was so afraid of what would happen if Lucas find out. I was walking towards the agency gate when a tinted glass black Jeep rolled forward. I nearly shit on my pants when the glass window rolled down, revealing a man with a white suit. My heart sank that moment I remember the last person I saw in a white suit. I shivered like someone suffering from enteric fever. I looked back to see how far the bodyguard was, but luckily for me, he had sensed the movement of the car quickly, and he hurrie

    His wry smile gave me more reason to be afraid. He continued staring at me, and I tried to make out who it was from his face. He started moving towards me, and I tried to look more to see who he was. When he was closer enough, he continued smiling, and I finally knew who he was. He has been out of my way for a few days now, which has made me forget him.“So you now walk with a bodyguard, Miss. Helen,” he said when he was very close to me. His smile alone makes me imagine his cruel act. And for a minute, I wonder what he will do to Jane once he set eyes on her. Mr. Rex was a heartless human whose eyes never stop searching for a vulnerable young model to sleep with. “So this is how you are, you go about sleeping with wealthy people and gain favor from them. You would have named your price and watched me pay, instead of claiming to be a good girl but later sneak to satisfy a man older than I am. You think I don’t know him?” I wondered when Rex will stop his usual sermon and leave me alo

    LucasThe only thing that fill my mind these days was Helen. How she had managed to seize every part of me was a history I can’t tell. During office hours, I barely concentrate, all I do is sit at the desk and stare at the number on my phone and pray that the day should be over soon, so I can go home. When she had not answered my call I was losing it, thank God that she replied to my message at once. I was already missing her and I wanted to see her face badly. She has somehow occupied the greater part of my heart now. I wish she will remain there and never go till time indefinite. I went to the hospital immediately after I saw her reply. Although I had gone there earlier to complain about my recent feeling towards one opposite gender to the doctor. He told me I was healing very fast. He gave me some tablets and ask me to take them one hour before visiting the hospital. I seized the opportunity to visit her friend and gave the support I feel they so needed in the name of Helen. When

    HelenIt was a bright Saturday morning. I woke up happy and with full strength. It could be because my mother was going to be discharged from the hospital, or because Lucas’s bed has become so cozy and comfortable. My plan was to get to the hospital by 12 pm and help her get to the house. I sat up on the bed and reflect on the past weeks. It was hell, each week came with its own problem. I was happy that I stood strong throughout those phases and remain unbroken. Although I wouldn’t say it to his face, I didn’t forget to thank God for Lucas, who has been showing up at the right time to help. His swift decision has been getting me out of trouble this whole time.I stretched and yawn loud thinking I was alone. I shut my mouth with my palm when I remember I wasn’t alone. The thought of Lucas now set in, and I started wondering where he does sleep. Of course, there are plenty of rooms in the villa, sleeping in one wouldn’t be an issue for him. Then I remember I haven’t seen him throw his

    What Caroline had said has gotten a hold of me. It was something I must show gratitude for. I started wondering about Lucas's sexual life, I have seen the way he looked at me, the way he touched me, so tenderly, and the way he gets angry when anyone treats me the way he feels shouldn’t. I started doubting Buzz's words. But then, what if he is disguising himself to confuse me? I guess he knows that Buzz must have told me about his gay life.“Caroline, tell me. How come Lucas never got married till now.” Caroline stopped and looked up at my face. She seems not to understand my question. I blink rapidly as I waited for her to respond.“Excused me, ma’am, he’s married now.” My eyes widen in realization, I forgot that we were married. I duck down my face in embarrassment and wished I had not come up with the conversation. Caroline reached out and touched my shoulder. “I understand how new marriage works. I was once in your shoe. Sometimes I even woke up and call my mum thinking that I wa

    HelenThe house was in frenzy, everywhere was bustling, and those I have never seen smiling were smiling. For the first time I feel accepted, I love Lucas's mood today, he wasn’t moody and all to himself or sturdy today. Perhaps I was the cause. I wasn’t left out, Lucas's voice has become all that I want to hear, his gist tickles me and made me laugh out loud. I could see the joy in his eyes as I beamed in laughter. The dining table was full, and I watched him keep requesting for more food, it was like Christmas, if that’s the perfect word that best suits it.“What’s your plan after now,” he asked after he’d settled the spoon and knife on the table. I wasn’t very shy of him again, and I think I love the way it felt, and I am not sure that I will want to return to the previous way. Moreover, my plan for the day was the reason behind my smile.I will be taking my mum home, she’ll be discharged from hospital. I looked up and saw him staring with an expression on his face that I couldn’t

    LucasToday was indeed a great day, I love every part of it. She gave me the feelings I have never expected, perhaps because she had shown signs of happiness first. That was what I always wanted, to make her feel like the queen she’s. I had waited in the sitting room for her. I started wondering what could make her stay for that long. I didn’t want to think about the bad things that could happen to her there. I wouldn’t forgive myself if anything happened to her. I rose from my seat and headed to the kitchen. I couldn’t believe my eyes, she was making a meal for me. I stood there and listened to their conversation without their notice. I saw her reaction when Caroline told her I made the toasted bread she enjoyed that morning. Her face was like, “If I’d known, I wouldn’t have eaten, but I have eaten anyway.” I watch as she wiggles on that loose cloth. I imagine myself hugging her tight, pressing myself hard on her, kissing her, fondling her, still, she begged me to continue. I wanted

    HelenThe morning came, cool and soothing, everything returned to life and the excitement continued. All through the weekend, two things were on my mind. And each time I recall those things, it gives me nothing but joy and laughter. Lucas’ has been so good, I couldn’t thank him less, I wished we can recreate Saturday’s event. Well, let's leave it to another convenient time. Again, the fact that my mum has bounced back to full health was the other exciting thing. I want her to live and enjoy all the things I will build for us and her grandchildren.I stretched out of the bed like a wild cat, I saw him again, throwing his suit over. I wondered why I always woke up when he is throwing up his suit. I pushed aside the thought, it was only a coincidence or that we both had the same time for a different routine. I leaned to the side of the bed and took my phone, the screen lit up when I lifted it up immediately, and I saw an email message from my agency. I have been selected, I won the audit

    HELEN POV"Why are you crying, Mr. Downell," I said between my breaths, trying to sit up."You are surely stronger than you look. I never expected this from a woman." He stretched out his hand and helped me sit up. I chuckled. "There was a fire outbreak, I saw it spread before my eyes while I was on the phone with you. It was so violent that I thought I would die. But a man came in and saved me. I need to thank him.""The man is right here, I saved you. The little witch wanted to kill you." Perplexed by his words."Did you come with a chopper?" I watch him gently."And who is the little witch that intends to kill me? I believe I was careless with the gas cooker. I must have forgotten to turn it off after heating the water." "After the incident, there was an investigation. Every room was searched and a gallon of fuel was found in Catherine's room. The police even saw your room card in her purse. She set the room ablaze to kill you." My mouth widened, and a rush of chill ran down my s

    Helen POV" You should have called before you came," Lucas said as he poured glasses of wine."Can't I surprise my husband again?" He smirked and handed over one of the glasses to me."You keep making me dismiss meetings. The point is I can't focus while you're waiting." A wry smile escaped my mouth. He sounded sweet and sexy. "It's not my fault then, you are probably drunk on love." I teased curling up my legs. He ran his hand over his face before revealing a beautiful smile. Watching him smile like that was rare, but trust me it was remarkable. I don't know Lucas as someone who could indulge in conversations that require teasing. But here he is smiling at it wholeheartedly."Well, I couldn't go home since mum is always busy with cooking. So I decided to stop by and share with you the good news I heard in the office today." Lucas's eyes lit and he rested on his chair."Alright then, I'm all ears." "It's about the Oscars, Catherine told me I should be expecting not less than 8 award

    Helen POVI opened my eyes to a familiar sight and a chuckle escaped my mouth. I thought everything and everywhere would all be painted white, my garments white and my shoulders would grow wings. I closed my eyes, sucked in a deep breath as I sprayed my legs over the soft hospital bed. I had longed for heaven but it seems it's way far from me."Good morning." A soothing voice whispered behind me. A rush of adrenaline flushes through my system. I knew the voice. It was also familiar. I didn't know if I was thrilled to hear his voice again but I was certain that something inside me wanted to go back to sleep."Aren't you going to at least answer?" The then whispered voice sounded cold again. "Good morning, Lucas," I answered with my eyes still closed. Then the memories came in like wildfire. I remembered a vague gunshot, the bubbles, and the shortness of breath, all of them filled my head that instant. I sat up and flicked my eyes to clear the thoughts as my heart continued to pound vi

    The anger of seeing Helen in pain engulfed me, the wicked adrenaline rushed through my veins and I felt like consuming Buzz whole like a wildfire. But each time Helen cries out my heart aches. I felt weakened and broken. I have just realized yet again how much she's into me. Helen has eaten up the greater part of me and the only thing I found worthy of doing was to make her smile again. Make her free from pain, give her rest, and reunite her with her mother.It wasn't impossible, I had been trained in a paramilitary program, and I graduated from different martial arts schools. The strategy was simple, it was even fun to use it with Buzz. He's nothing but a piece that needs to be shown its place. So fixing him was not a problem.I only needed to exhibit a bit of professionalism to think out the right way to deal with him. If I pay attention to my anger like the first time, I might get shot again. I wasn't surprised when I heard Helen shout. To her, it was a shock so she needed to rea

    Helen POVStanding head to head, eyeballs to eyeballs I could feel Lucas's anger. His eyes have narrowed. That wasn't a good sign. If his anger gets over him, we all will be dead. His men were a distance away. There's no way they will reach us before Buzz men who were already on standby with their guns pointed at them pull the trigger.Tears escaped my eyes. Before me, Buzz had vowed to make sure Lucas felt the same pain he felt. With the way he held his eyes, I noticed he was dead serious. Buzz smirked and stepped backward avoiding Lucas's forehead which had almost scratched his face."You are quite brave for a man. I admire that. But your snare can not move me an inch, it can not stop the mission either." Lucas maintained a calm aura, he looked up at me and I begged him immediately to turn back and go."It's better to die alone than to die with you, Lucas. Run, please, save yourself so you can take care of my mother." Lucas's eyes became wet as he fixed his gaze on me, ignoring the

    the chain rolled to the waters. "Buzz! Lucas called out with a megaphone. The muscles in his neck stood with his hair. Buzz lifts his hand and the cage stops rolling. He grinds as he realizes that he has finally been able to control and make the mighty Lucas who has never bent a knee to anyone succumb to his voice. " Please, let them go, Buzz. Take me. Is it not me you want?" That was the first time I heard Lucas beg. I watched him break down on the floor of the floating boat. That wasn't the only thing, his voice shook like someone in deep panic. What a rare sight of Lucas. I felt his inner pain and my heart ached for him. I wanted everything to stop, I wish it was just a dream. But sadly, it was a reality that I couldn't escape from, I had to face it till the very end. At this point I was ready, I knew Buzz would not let me go without hurting me because I caused everything that Lucas did to him. But if he must kill me, he must set my mum free. At least I can joyfully die knowing

    Helen's POVMy bones ached, Buzz had pounded me, and his beatings were brief because he feared I might die and his mission to make Lucas succumb would be aborted. "You've had enough, for now, but I must apologize for not giving you the same beatings Lucas gave me." He started a cruel laugh. There was a pause when one of his men approached and whispered in his ears."Quick, cover her up and put her in the cell." He ordered before walking out of the room. Just as Buzz had ordered, one of his men immediately grabbed me by my shoulder and dragged me out of the room. It was then I knew that I was on a sailing cruise ship. The cold breeze gave me goosebumps. When I saw the water, my stomach rumbled, and I threw out chunks of what I didn't remember eating. "Filthy slut, come over here" I felt a heavy blow on my neck and I lost balance and fell to the ground. He wrapped my hair around his palm and pulled me to himself. I howled in pain but he ignored my voice. He signals another guard."Y

    The smell of antiseptic filled my nose and I opened my eyes to the sight of strange but familiar surroundings."Damn, I'm in the hospital again." I breathed out. I hated this place called the hospital. But there I was, in an automated bed, amid big machines and equipment without a clue about how I ended up there. I tried to lift my hand but I was too tired to lift it. A beeping sound kept resounding in my ears from the direction of my left hand and I looked down only to find a female hand wrapped around my chest. I gathered all the strength left in me and managed to adjust. "You're awake, you scare me. Please don't do that again." She said sobbing. I widened my eyes as I stared at my mum's pale skin. "What are you doing here?" I managed to speak and I felt a sharp crack on my neck. I groan in pain and bend my neck to one side. She raised her hand frantically. I saw the panic in her eyes and it hurt my heart."Stay still please, don't talk. I'll go get the doctor." She got up immedi

    A flash of panic hints on my face as the TV goes blind before me. I needed to do something, I can't just stand here and wait for a miracle. First, it was my mother, now it's my husband. What will happen to me If anything bad happens to them? I would have not just stayed back, had faith that Lucas could handle the deadly gang stars all by himself. Where will I start from? How will I be of help? I slide my hand into my hair as I think of what to do. I was uneasy, walking around the sitting room like a mad woman. No one would see me and not think of me that way. "What would I do if they were captured? I would find the secret place where they hid them and rescue them." I thought to myself. Now, if my thoughts are correct, how will I find the hidden place? My brain was not helping at all, the thoughts that came were negative all through."But the broadcaster said there was a shooting in Enfield, what would happen next if Lucas was shot?" I started analyzing again. "Certainly, Lucas would
