The doorbell woke Frederick up and he hissed out loudly."Who the hell is disturbing my peace this morning?" He grumpily said with his eyes still closed. He got home and went to bed due to tiredness. The bell came again and he got down from the bed, picked his robe and threw it over his body, and took a long stroll out of his bedroom. He rushed down the stairs and pulled the main door open after looking through the pinhole. "You don't have to wake me up so early like this. What happened to your house?" Larry pushed him away and got inside. "Dude, you disappeared without a trace last night. I called you severally but no way so I had to come here to see if you are home or you have been killed by the black Devilish Angel" Frederick frowned deeply, causing wrinkles on his forehead. He can't believe that Larry would be in his home as early as six to ask if he has been killed or is still alive. Understandably, Larry is looking out for him but he should have called again.
Kristen sat legs crossed on the floor with her eyes glued to the big television. She was having breakfast of hot brewed Choco and plantain pizza. She was dressed in bum shorts and a creamy crop top. Good sex increases appetite. She is not a foodie but she has been eating more than required lately. There was nothing to see on the TV except some documentaries which she is not a fan but to get her mind off the image that refused to leave her mind, she decided to watch the dumb documentaries. She could change the channel but she just doesn't want to. A knock came out the door and she ignored it, it came again yet she pretended not to hear it. After several knocks, the person stopped knocking and the next second, Kristen heard the door cracking open and frowned deeply. She stood up to find who is at the door. Her living room wasn't adjacent to the main door so before she can get to the living room, she would have to go through the little dining room and go past the storeh
"Ladies of these days have no shame, I know I swear not to judge her wrongly but then this attitude of hers is not good at all. She should at least cover up and behave decently at all times whether at home or not,"Naomi soliloquized in Kristen's absence. The couch felt so hot for her because to her, being there was kind of associating with the lady Kristen is. Nothing is holding her from leaving the house, she chooses to be rooted there and in her mind, condemning the poor girl. Kristen, if gets to know what is running through her neighbor's mind, would not bother because people's opinions don't matter to her anymore. She is living her life for herself, not for anyone and it entirely gives her peace of mind to know that people talk about her behind her back and when she gets to hear, she pretends as if she doesn't hear. Not everyone can do this but she does it effortlessly and that makes her a queen of her own world. Kristen returned with a flat breakable plate and c
Noami felt bittered that a man she is trying to tell the kind of person her neighbor is, misunderstood her kind gesture. She was furious and felt her anger boiling, Why should she tell him anything, what business does she have with what or who Kristen associates with? "It's her life anyway"She murmured to herself then lift her eyes at the man, defending her neighbor,Why can't a man like him see a good girl like her? They end up going for rotten eggs like Kristen. "You don't have to believe me, you know, I am just looking out for you. I thought of telling you in case you are to do anything to with her without protection because of disease" The once sweet-looking lady turned vicious, glared at him, and walked away, leaving her provocative perfume lingering in the air. Frederick scoffed and closed his eyes and a moment later, he opened them with a calmness he never knew he had. He had done well today. She is really lucky, she controlled himself if not, her cheeks mig
"Who are you?" Kristen asked as she made steady steps towards him not minding he had his hands in the air.The question did not come out right for Frederick, for a moment he was lost on why she would ask that question.Does it mean she did not recognize him as the guy from last night? He was disappointed."I am…."He could not even form a word because of the vicious look on her face, she looked like she would murder him any moment."You are who, if you don't say who you are, I bet you, you wouldn't like my actions right now so who the hell are you?"She yelled, still approaching him as he also moved backwards."I am Frederick""Frederick?"She scoffed,"How does being Frederick explain who you are?"Frederick was not finding the show funny anymore,"Frederick from last night," he said suddenly and she halted in her tracks with an unimaginable smile creeping across her face,"Oh, you are that guy?"She shyly asked and looked up at him,"Pardon my manners. I am not used to people snea
Kristen melted in his embrace. She was cut off guard by the kiss but recomposed herself immediately and pulled him inside in between the kiss.The scene did not escape Noami's notice. She was fuming and condemning the two seriously."People these days don't have regard for their bodies. How can you go about committing fornication"She spat out disgustedly. If there is a way she would teach the two adults a lesson right now, she would gingerly do it without thinking twice.Kristen snuck her hand behind his head and deepened the kiss. It was rough and that's how she loved to be kissed.His breath tastes like lemonade. she swears he had lemonade, but it did not stop her from searching for his tongue while she caressed his back."He should have stated that he wants sex instead of being a dummy."She thought, smirking. Frederick felt her smile and pulled away."What's amusing you huh?"He gazed at her lovingly. Kristen tried not to read meaning into his gaze, she is afraid that he might
A few minutes later, both were breathing hard. Kristen curled under him, he was still inside her and would not have thought of pulling out for anything in the world. Again, he did it raw.He frantically asked himself what had made him lose his guard and sleep with her raw the second time.Once, he could call it a mistake but twice, no way.Well, he did not plan for them to have sex and so he did not bring condoms, and again, he doesn't carry condoms around."That was hot"Kristen chuckled,"I wasn't expecting someone to bless my mid-morning with sweet sex. Thank you"She added and pushed him off her.Frederick noted she thanked him at the inn and now, she thanked him again. It's more like she thanks you every time she had sex with you and the thought that many have had their ways with her tugged at his heart. He did not like the feeling and he took in some breath."She is not your girlfriend. She is not even close to being your friend. You don't even know if you would come back and
Kristen was going to spend half an hour in the bathroom. She had concluded on her way to her bathroom with the hope that her visitor had left.It's been quite a morning for her. She did not think Frederick would come for her so soon."What do I expect, it's obvious he likes free sex. They always do"She muttered while relaxing her hair on the tub headrest.The tub was filled to the brim with water and bubbles. Her soap fragrance filled the air, soothing her soul.Good sex comes with great relaxation. One thing Kristen can't trade for anything is a chance at good sex. That's how much she loves sex.She sighed with relief and smiled when the image of Frederick appeared on her face but frowned the next second."Why am I thinking of him, I should not do that. Kristen remember"She sighed again then closed her eyes to enjoy the soothing following that comes with a bubble bath.The door cranked open and she flicked her eyes open immediately to see Frederick standing at the door staring a
Kristen drove through the address given to her and parked, she quickly got down but was careful not to fall. Her dizziness had returned and her wound had started bleeding. Throughout her drive down to the hotel, she prayed not to pass out in the car. She took a great risk today and it's all for her mother's sake. Getting to the lobby, she inquired and was told Lucian's room number. She took the elevator. Ding! She was moving out of the elevator at full speed with her eyes glued to her phone. She found the room but what she saw wasn't what she expected at all. Lucian and two other men were taken away in handcuffs with gun wounds on their bodies. Lucian glared at her before he was pushed away She was in shock and when she recovered, she looked up to see her mother was okay yet there was no smile on Mrs. King's face. She looked away from her and finally looked at the man beside her mother. "Dad!"She muttered and passed out. Kristen opened her eyes and found three pairs of eyes wat
Wordlessly, Kristen turned and headed out. Annie thought of following her and when Kristen realized that Annie was following her, she gestured for her to stop with her hand. She has no idea what Lucian had planned to do so she can't endanger Annie's life. Kristen thought that after all of these and she survived, she would then reward Annabel for being her backbone. Both have been through thick and thin. She was full of exhaustion yet she was intending to drive herself to that God damned address. If in her terrible condition she can drive from place to this place? What is a thirty-minute journey she can't do? The address was the popular hotel in town, what a joke! If indeed she is getting married to Lucian, wasn't it supposed to be inside a church or something? A wedding inside a hotel, Kristen hadn't seen it all yet. The servants she saw gave her a kind look and with their deepest hearts, they wished she could pull through. But wait? Wasn't Kristen supposed to report this to the
The phone slipped off Kristen's hand and she went down on the floor, with tears flowing free from her eyes down to her cheeks and disappearing into her dress. It's unbelievable that the lady she saw a while ago was dead, for real? She can't just die. Frederick called and broke the news to her, the fact that Frederick had her number didn't bother her, she was too shocked to even utter a word and worst still, she was blaming herself for Noami's death. She didn't have to die, Kristen wished there was something she could do. Maybe Frederick hadn't kissed her or she hadn't flirted with him earlier, Noami would have still been alive yet deep down, Kristen felt she was not at fault. It was just a kiss, she shouldn't have taken it far and drove off in anger which got her killed however Kristen's heart was pricking her badly and her tears continued to flow nonstop. She was devastated.She forgot all about her tummy and wept. Her face was all red and she felt so weak. She didn't know wh
Frederick cleared his throat, trying to appear cool and collected, "Naomi what are you doing here." Kristen thought he was acting cold but he was actually flustered.Naomi stepped aside "I was looking for you and saw your car outside. It looks like you are busy."She looked hurt and Kristen could see it."Noami, it's not what you think?" Kristen started to explain but Noami never spared her a glance, she had her attention focused on Frederick, waiting for him to say something at least. "Aren't you going to say anything?" She was in dire need of explanation. She wanted him to tell her that he wasn't the one who initiated the kiss between Kristen and him, it will make her feel better and she could forgive him. Of course, she is aware of their relationship and wouldn't blame Frederick if anything like this was supposed to occur, two souls that love themselves can't be separated. She knew all this yet Noami wanted him for herself, she was hurting deeply, and to make matters worse,
Kristen watched him stop and turn to face her, she had her eyes fixed on him, not wanting to miss any emotions at all. The silence was deafening that a drop of a pin can be hard. A moment passed, another did and Kristen couldn't take the silence anymore plus the way he was staring at her like he was caught stealing what is his but who steals what they owe? "I don't know why you're watching me like that."She said and continued, "you looked uncomfortable and I wondered why you still don't want to tell me how you know my bedroom." She added with an annoyed tone "so spill, now."He sighed heavily and put his hands in his pockets. Kristen could see he didn't want to do this, she had this feeling he wanted to avoid it just as much as she wanted to know.Kristen took a step forward and demanded "now!" How in the world will he tell her all that he knows, he can't say anything concerning both of them. Not only will it traumatize her, but it could also endanger her and the lost memories will
As angry as she was that someone had to be knocking at her door, Kristen kept her cool and eventually opened the door to her surprise, she wasn't expecting him to be the one. Her frown dissolved into a smile and she stepped aside. Frederick walked in clutching two paper packs. "You are going out with this broken head of yours?" He asked worriedly and scanned her. Kristen smiled shyly and closed the door then faced him, "What are you doing here? There are two places you should be, the hospital or your girlfriend's place." The way she raised her brows made Frederick chuckle, "you did not even answer my question and you are asking me yours?" He raised one eyebrow."Well yeah, I am going to get what to eat. Can't remember the last time I ate and it's already mid-morning. Don't even know why I left the hospital, I need to be taken care of."She said dramatically and Frederick looked at her with lots of love in his eyes. Kristen lift her eyes and they met, she hadn't seen anyone lo
Gingerly but hesitantly, Noami stood up expecting Kristen to stop her from leaving. Disappointment was written all over her face and she was finding it hard to hide it. Kristen looked away from her as she waited for Noami to leave. Noami didn't look like Someone ready to leave. She was taking too much time to leave and Kristen's patience was running thin."Damn this lady, she should leave already," Kristen spat angrily in her mind."Won't she ask me to stay and also apologize to me?"Noami thought and took a step and then turned towards the direction of Kristen's face, as if on cue both their eyes met and they stared at each other.The tension was thickening in the room. Noami was staring at Kristen, waiting for her to at least say something, anything. As she saw Kristen remained silent, her anger rose within her and she spoke, "you know what?" She glared at Kristen, pointing her index finger at her angrily, "I was a fool to think I can patch things up with you. I am done trying
The silence was finally broken by Mrs. King after she could not bear the tension any longer. "You ruined me and my daughter after everything, what did I not do for you?""What exactly did you do for me, marrying me?"Stephen asked coolly, he was trying so hard to put his anger under control. He didn't know how much longer he would be able to do that but he knew one thing for sure, he would explode eventually. "If I haven't forgotten, you begged me to marry you, or are you forgetting that little detail?" He sighed and removed his hand from her face, "Listen, my dear, I am not doing anything wrong. Okay, I admit I had fun with your daughter, of course, sleeping with you and yo.." Whack! A slap landed on his face before he finished his statement. He held his cheek and glared at his wife who had her fingers pointing at his face, "don't you dare, Mr. Stephen King, don't dare speak of my daughter in that manner. I know what you wanted to say, that sleeping with me and my daughter
Her door closing gave Kristen relief, a peace she thought she would never have washed over her. It felt like a burden had been lifted off her shoulders. Kristen Chase felt free and the only thing that came to her mind was to dance. She did a little happy dance and collapsed on the bed, hitting her head in the process. She groaned because of the pain yet it didn't stop her from smiling. The pain in her chest has been greater than the one in her head and now the pain in her chest is not there, she can manage the pain in her chest with a smile. Give her a few days and she is back on her feet. "Do you know, baby, that your momma is free?" Kristen patted her belly and smiled, though the father of her child is out in her life, for now, she will take care of her bundle of joy. She might not get back with Lucian ever but she can promise her baby she'll be the greatest mother and be able to love him/her unconditionally. She knew Lucian doesn't love her and she knows he probably won't
