" You are back early, hope all is well? She asked." Yes, no, yes” I replied and my mother in law stared at me, I know she would not stop asking until I say something reasonable. I quickly thought of using headache as an excuse even though I truly had an headache.“I actually have some headache and I speak to my boss about it and he told me that I can go home" I replied." Oh, I see, Let me get you some pain relief" she said and wanted to go to the kitchen." Oh never mind, I can get that when I get to our room, you must be tired because I know my boys are very troublesome" I said with a faint smile." I dare not complain because they are my grandkids" she replied jokingly."Is Richard back from the Mobil oil company interview? I asked." No" she said." No" he should be back by now, it's just an ordinary interview” I said.I gave the boys to their grandma and bring out my cellphone to call him then there was a knock on the gate.I stood up and go to open the gate it was my husband R

Mike’s POVI was going through the divorce documents with smile spreading across my lips.My phone rang and it was Richard, I know why he called, he called because of Sharon.I picked the call and he ask me of his wife, I said I don't know where she is that I haven't seen her, I asked if he had reported to the police station, he said yes, I told him to meet up with me that I know the police commissioner that we should report to him directly that he would help us find her fast, he believed me and he told me he would meet up with me.He shouldn't have called me because he just made my job easier than I thought.If only he knew he was speaking with his wife abductor.I call up my men to block him up and kidnap him.My men did the job easily , he was kidnap at exactly where he would have board a Taxi.I ordered my men to get a camera ready.I went to where I kept Sharon that night, I bought so many different food because I do not know which one she would like to eat in all the dishes.She
“Now that I have done what you want let my husband go,he needs to go to the hospital” I said.“I am not done” he said.“What do you mean by you are not done? I have signed the divorce documents ? You shot my husband already ? What else do you want?! I yelled at him.“ Our wedding? He said.“ What wedding? I asked.“ you have signed a divorce document that made him your ex and I am your present, your wedding dress and every other accessories is ready, I will release your husband when we both become official” Mike said.“ I won’t get married to you except you let go of my husband” I said.“Point of correction, your ex husband because as from now on you are now my wife” he says boldly.“Please let Richard go” I said.“ No, not until we are legally married” he said.Fine, Can we go and get married now? I said in anger.He picked his phone and ask someone if the wedding dresses and it’s accessories that he ordered for from New York from Vera wang, one of the best wedding dress company in t
If someone had told me my family are my worst enemies, I will never have believed until now.They all sat down in the plane, well dressed and looking excited.My stepmom came to me and embrace me and I looked her in the eyes and ask.“ You knew about all of this from the beginning right? I asked.“ I did it for you honey, I did it for you because I know what you deserve” she says caressing my cheek”.“ You do not know what I want ? You did what you wanted because of what you were going to gain, you couldn’t even pity my kids and all.......” I was going to continue talking that I was dragged to the priest and Mike came to whisper into my ear.“ Your ex is still in my custody and I have your kids and ex mother in law in my captives, if you love them, do as I say” he said and held my hand.I pull away my hand from his hand and tears dripped down my face.I stood and I was asked to say my vow, I had no vows to read to him because any vow I am supposed to read belongs to my husband only.H
My stepmom walked to me trying to embrace me with smiles, I stood and stare at her with tears.“ You all knew all about this ? She asked.“ We can discuss this later, I did for you” she says.“ Really? I asked and Mike came to me.I pulled his hands away from my body but he didn’t stop instead he wrap his hand around my waist and tighten his hand around my waist.After the wedding we had a beautiful reception on the ship. We were flown to another airport where it was an helicopter that took to us to the wedding reception.On our way to the reception, he held my hand and kiss my hand, I pull away my hand from him.“ Get your filthy hands off me , I hate you” I yelled at me.He stare at me and smirks.“ Don’t worry , very soon, you will learn to love me and you will understand how much I love you” he said.“ In your wildest dreams will I ever fall for you, what make you think I will love you? I hate you and I can never love you! I snapped.“ I don’t care how long it’s going to take for
Apparently, the guy was nomadic and had been on the run for a while. I couldn't help but wonder why he kept hiding and what had made him choose this luxurious hotel as his hideout.Several hours passed, and it appeared that the man didn't want to show himself. The air was thick with the scent of cigar smoke. I sat at the table with James, feeling anxious and uneasy. I couldn't help but feel like something was off about the situation.Suddenly, the door creaked open, and a strong-looking muscular guy entered the room. His serious expression and imposing figure sent shivers down my spine. He scanned the room before his eyes landed on us."My boss will see you now," he said in a gruff voice.I breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, we were getting somewhere. I signaled to James that I would wait for him in the parking lot and stood up from the table, eager to get out and breathe some fresh air. However, as I exited the meeting room, my heart sank, and beads of sweat started to form around m
I'm good, Dad," I said, not wanting to talk about myself. “Well, thanks for your time.”I stood up to leave. Visits with my father had always been all business anyways. The man believed in nothing more than himself. I hurried down to the garage to find Richard.I watched Richard from afar. He looked more manly in the garage environment. He was fascinated by something in the car engine area, so I moved closer.As soon as Richard spotted me, he sighed.Laura," he said quietly, "go home."The words almost sounded like a warning, but I ignored him. I went even closer and looked around. It was quite dark in there for the middle of the morning. I got even closer.Richard closed the gap between us, his face dangerously set."Turn around," he ordered as he grabbed my hips and rested me face-first against the side of a car. His voice was suddenly deeper, and I rubbed my thighs together.He slipped a hand under my jacket."Laura, you really should go home now," Richard said as his hand kept get
The mansion had an eerie feel to it—as if there were secrets lurking around every corner. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were dead bodies hidden in the walls. It was unsettling, but I pushed those thoughts aside and continued on my way.As I reached the foyer, I saw James standing there, his arms crossed in front of his chest. He had a stern expression on his face. I had no desire at that moment to deal with the consequences of the previous night, but I continued towards him as he acknowledged me with a nod."Come to the back," his tone was firm, not that there had ever been a day that he was lenient. He took his difficult position very seriously.I followed him to the other end of the house where he opened a heavy metal door that led to a dark room. I could barely see what was inside, but I knew it had to be something important.He pulled out a large, heavy carton and placed it on a nearby table."You're delivering this," he said, pointing to the package. "It needs to be there at e
Yeah," I nodded as Richard pulled the car back onto the road."Are you married?" I blurted out, the words escaping my lips before I could even think twice. The car was quiet, aside from the sound of the engine humming. Anthony looked at me in shock, his eyes darting back and forth between me and the road ahead. For a moment, I thought that maybe I had caught him red-handed in some sort of scandalous affair, but then he spoke."No…" he said, his voice low and guarded, “but I was almost married."The way he said it made my heart ache for him. There was so much pain in his voice, so much hurt that he was clearly trying to hide. I could feel the tension in the car building like a rubber band stretched too tightly."She left," he added, his jaw clenching. I could see how much the memory hurt him, how much he must have been struggling to deal with the aftermath. I wondered what type of woman could have left someone like him. He seemed like the kind of person who would be an amazing partner,
I approached the bouncer, and he greeted me with a smile."Hi, Laura," he said, recognizing me from previous encounters. "It's been a long time," he smiled."I know, right?" I said and he parted the way for me to enter. I couldn't help but feel a sense of belonging. This was my favorite spot to unwind after a long day, and I always felt at home there.I took a deep breath and stepped inside, feeling the energy of the crowd wash over me. The club was bustling with people of all ages dressed in various styles. Some were dressed to impress, while others were dressed in more casual attire. The lighting was low, casting a sultry atmosphere over the scene.I made my way to the bar, scanning the crowd for familiar faces. As I ordered my drink, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see my best friend, Shirley, smiling broadly. She hugged me, almost squeezing the life out of me."You made it!" she said while spinning me around, grinning from ear to ear. We stopped for a moment to look
I dialed Mrs. Hamsburg number to ask if she could take in my daughter a little earlier today. It took her a few minutes to get back to me but the sweet soul agreed.Oh, Mrs. Hamsburg What would I do without you?"Go get your bags together while I talk to your teacher," I told Sonia, watching her hurriedly return to class.I approached her teacher and let her know the plan. She agreed and said I could take her out early.I watched my daughter wave at her friends and come to me.On the way, my daughter made us visit the cake shop, and we also had to pick up food. As we drove, my daughter chatted away. Then, I handed her to Mrs. Hamsburg , and she waved me off.A short hour later I was pulling up to the entrance of Laura’s gated community. I signaled to the security guard, and he nodded and let me enter. I pulled over in front of Laura's house and attempted to open the gate, but this time it was locked. Of course, it would be.I decided to buzz the intercom, hoping that Laura would hear i
I should have guessed from her demeanor that she was my boss’s daughter. She exuded a mean energy like her father. In fact, she carried so much of her father's aura, I was convinced I had just delivered a tool for her shady business, although I knew little about her career.I dialed James's number."Hi, James, it's Richard," I said when he answered. "I just delivered the package. Turns out it was for the boss's daughter."James didn't reply."You there?" I asked."Shit! Shut up. Hold on…" he replied through labored breathing. Why was he always so angry? He took his job way too seriously."Yes, I’ll hold," I sighed. I patiently held the phone to my ear while waiting for James to finish what he was doing.Clearly, I could sense some shady things were going on.All I wanted to do was notify them that I wasn't going to return to that place, and I was headed home.I pulled over to the side of the road and continued to wait for James to get back on the phone. It was almost 11 p.m., and I ha
The GPS beeped. I had arrived.The house was the largest and most imposing in the development, with black iron gates that seemed to tower above me. The driveway beyond was long and winding, flanked by lush gardens that seemed to have been sculpted by a master artist. I parked my car at the front gate and stepped out, the unease within me growing stronger as I made my way over to the intercom. I pressed the button and waited for someone to answer. While the intercom continued to ring, I noticed that the gate was slightly ajar, as if someone had left it open deliberately. I hesitated for a moment, then pushed it open and stepped inside.The grounds were even more magnificent up close, with fountains, statues, and intricate mosaics dotting the landscape. But something strange about the air made the entire estate seem to hold its breath, waiting for something to happen.I finally reached the front door, its heavy oak panels creaking as I pushed them open. Inside, the house was even more o
RICHIEI leaned against the hood of my car, surveying the scene in front of me. It was a busy night on the streets of the city, and I had been driving for hours. I was tired, but I couldn't go home yet. I had one more pickup to make.As I watched the people passing by, my eyes wandered to a woman walking down the street. She was beautiful, with long, dark hair and a confident stride. She caught my eye, and I couldn't look away.I watched as she passed a group of men hanging out on the corner. They leered at her, making suggestive comments and gestures. She tried to ignore them and continue on her way, but I could see the anger and frustration in her eyes.I felt a twinge of sympathy for her. I knew what it was like to be vulnerable and powerless in the face of danger. I had been there before and didn't want anyone else to experience that fear.I got out of my car and approached the men. They looked at me suspiciously, but I held up my hands in a gesture of peace."Hey, guys," I said, t
