HER BROTHER. HER GROOM.The next day… Melita didn't spend her night as she wished, she kept rolling on the bed throughout the night.Her mind was focused on Ferd, she had thought he would return that same night, but to her greatest shock, he didn't show up.In the morning, she lost appetite and decided to just go straight to the hospital and see her brother, instead of staying at home waiting for him.They were supposed to go together, but she lacks the patient this time."Hey Christine! If Ferdinand returns, he shouldn't step his feet into my room or I'll sack you and cut off his leg." She extended the message to her housekeeper.Christine twisted her face. "Isn't that impossible? And besides you're supposed to go with him to the hospital. Can't you wait for him? What if sir Vanda asks of him?" She bombarded the questions at her mistress courageously.Melita stood for a while and shook her head. "I can't wait for that asshole to return after flirting with another woman. I'll know w
ALL BECAUSE OF YOU."Lose this rope that's on me Alex, I've told you to go to her if you have interest in her and let me be for heaven's sake." Ferdinand yelled at Alex, who was busy smoking while watching him bark.He dropped the little stick of cigarette on the floor and matched it."Only if you sign that paper as an agreement that you'll have nothing to do with her again, then I'll lose the ropes." Alex remarked, and pulled his lips into a smile.Ferdinand wasn't finding it funny."I'll give you any amount you want, and feel free to come back for more if it doesn't satisfy you." Alex added.He spitted out. "To hell with me leaving my wife to you because of money. The money that I have and she has too."Alex lightened another stick of cigarette. "You think that I don't know who you are? I know how poor and wretched you are, she's the one taking care of you and you're living under her roof.""When you know that it isn't a crime huh?" Ferd shook his head. "Keep dying for someone whom
MISSING HIM.Miriam was still sad due to what occurred between her and Ferd at the club.She was so frustrated that she had to finish a bottle of alcohol wine alone.Her eyes were shutting slowly, but she didn't mind. She was still sipping from the glass of wine."Isn't it time you put yourself together and stop drinking yourself to stupor?" Ariana, her high time friend yelled at her.She stared at her with a narrowed eyes and let out a fucking smile. "What's that yell for? I chose to drink myself to stupor, so you have no right to stop me."."All because of a married man that isn't gonna give you attention huh? Do you even know what you're doing?" Ariana bit her lips in dismay. She fell in love with Ferd as well but was sad that he picked Miriam, but then, she hates the fact that he's married because she thinks it's going to be difficult to get her… or she wouldn't mind taking her away from her friend.If only she can get that privilege like Miriam, she will do anything in her power
IT'S ONLY HIM. The next morning, Melita got awake as usual to get ready for work. She glanced at the clock and slowly got down from the bed.She stepped into the bathroom and watched her image through the mirror positioned there."He didn't spend the night here with me, and it's boring. Does it mean that I can't be without him? Or, maybe his presence just fills the room." She heaved a big sigh and pulled out her hair cap.When she was fully ready for work, it was almost 8am, yet Ferdinand wasn't awake."Is his breakfast ready?" Melita referred to Christine after she was done with her plate of meals.Christine came closer to the dinning. "Is anything the problem Ma? I'll serve him when he's awake.""No! I want to do that before leaving. Get it here for me."She left to the kitchen and returned to the dining room with the tray of food, then placed it on the table."This is it."Melita stood up and grabbed the tray, then headed upstairs to Ferdinand's room.She stepped in and still fou
MELITA AND HER DIRECTOR.Due to the things she had to run around for before getting home, she wasn't able to stay till closing time.First, she left for police custody and sat with the police officer she had a deal with because of Ferdinand."How did everything happen? Where did you get him?" She asked him.He scratched his head. "He was held up by a young man, but then, they were arguing because of you when we showed up.""Arguing because of me?" She sniffed and laughed. "Who's the fucking man that arguing with my husband because of me?""His name is Alex." The police officer announced.Her eyes flew open, recalling that the young man he met in the morning mentioned his name as Alex too."Uhmmm! Can you tell me his physical appearance? I'm trying to quote something." She uttered.The police officer gazed at a point for a while. "He's hefty, fair with curly hair.""Exactly, it's him.""It's who? Did he stick you on your way?" The police officer inquired.She sighed deeply. "I had a cl
MIRIAM OR MELITA.Melita left to her room, she wasn't happy after yelling at Ferdinand.Although she hates him and wouldn't want to taste his lips for once, she needs to do anything just to get rid of the plans Alex is setting up for her."But I can't be his girlfriend, not when I don't even have interest in the young man that I hired, who seems to be more charming than him." She squeezed the bed cover. "I can't give in because of getting the company, neither will I let my efforts go in vain. Ferdinand should do something for me."She fell on the bed and began counting on the ceiling, but the buzzing of her cell phone drew out her attention again."Hi, Vanda." She uttered after picking up the call."Carmelita, your husband visited me today and he's looking good. He keeps saying good things about you and I'm so happy about it." Vanda stated.She forced a smile on her face, that's not what she's after as it stands.But wait! Ferdinand speaks good of her after everything. Isn't that exc
SEVEN DAYS DEAL. Alex picked up his cell phone, he hated the whole thing that took place between him and Melita.He dialed a number that picked up within seconds, and then he placed the cell phone on his ear."She's not scared at all, after all the threats. She even rode out of my sight." He complained to the receiver."I know her so well, she's too stubborn and difficult to handle. But that's not the end or you'll lose your money."Alex nodded, he already knew that withdrawing from the game isn't gonna favor him. He needs to accomplish the mission and get paid."Try as much as you can to get her to yourself because that's the easiest way to achieve this goal." Alex sighed. "I'll try my best, she's too little for me to handle." He assured himself and the receiver and then the call came to an end.He grabbed his bottle of whiskey and emptied it, then filled it again."I don't care the sort of person you are in this city, but I'll make sure to achieve what I'm working on." He smirked
FRIEND OR NOT."Hi! This is Carmelita." She uttered through the office phone."There's an urgent meeting that is being held immediately, and you're expected to come over as the manager." The caller explained.She hissed silently. If only he knows that she isn't in that mood, he wouldn't have given her a call."Uhmmm! I'll be there right away." She assured the caller and ended the call.She clenched her fist, gritting her teeth. "I just hate this. Why the urgent meeting all of a sudden?" She shut her eyes.When she let her eyes open, she checked the time and stood up ready to leave for the meeting.She left the office after dropping a message to her assistant, then she left to her car and drove off.On her way to the conference hall, the traffic stopped her and she had to send back a message to them, because she knew that she would be late."I just feel exhausted, this meeting must end so fast so I can go home from there." She muttered and rested her back on the seat.She turned her he
IN A PANIC.Lara crossed her legs while sipping from her glass of wine. Reyna was busy with the television. While Alexa was pacing round the room, scratching her head."You're gonna go mad soon, it's just a matter of minutes." Lara mocked and grinned.Reyna turned to Alexa. "Why are you panicking? Did anything happen to you?""That dude."Lara glanced at Reyna who returned the glance as well."Which dude?" They both thundered the question.She bit her lips. "Ferdinand, of course. He's just playing with my heart."A loud hiss escaped Reyna's throat, she rested her back on the sofa and focused her gaze on the movie.If she had known, she wouldn't have been interested at first. The fact that Alexa is after a married man keeps pissing her off. Not just a married man, but Melita's husband."What are you thinking? That he will leave Melita and focus on you huh? Just all of a sudden?" Lara questioned her."You don't understand Lara, that lady is really dealing with him because she's rich. Sh
A DO OR DIE 2.Ferdinand bit the side of his lips when he turned to see Melita standing, watching them.He had told her to stay inside and had promised to be back at once."Alexa, what are you doing here?" Melita's voice thundered.Alexa glanced at Ferdinand. "I came to see him.""See who? Are you insane?" She twitched towards her, raised her hand to pounce on Alexa, but Ferdinand gripped her palm in the air.She turned and glared at him. "You're too stupid too.""Even in my presence, you still curse him. Yet you keep bragging that he's your husband." Alexa cut in.Since Ferdinand was holding her right hand, she had to slap Alexa's face with her left palm."When it comes to marriage, you ought to pretend like you saw nothing." She warned Alexa who was wincing in pain.That slap came with lots of anger.Ferdinand finally let go of her hand and turned to Alexa. "Why not leave? Do you want to be slapped again?""Ferdinand.." she cried out."I paid you for this job, so please, don't inter
A DO OR DIE.Melita rolled to the other side of the bed and slowly let her eyes open. She stared at the wall for a while before turning over."Goodness! I can't tell the last time I took a long siesta like this." She gripped her head, staring around.She took a look at her body and gasped in shock. "What! How… How come?"Her eyes fell on the door, it was locked."I'm just wearing panties. Is this the handiwork of Ferdinand huh?" She screamed and hit her palm on the bed.She gripped her head again, when she noticed that she's trying to recollect something.Her eyes caught her nipples, how pointed and reddish it was."He… He sucked my boobs, and I did nothing to him." She swallowed deeply. "Huh! He undressed me and left." Tears were struggling in her eyes, but she held them up."That feeling was mutual, I really wanted to feel that way until the end of the world. I guess that was the reason I slept off so fast and had a peaceful siesta." She thought, staring at her nipples.She rubbed
THE GAME OF SEDUCTION.Ferdinand was expecting a slap as usual, but he was damn surprised when Melita threw her arms around his neck.He gripped her waist dipping his fingers into her skin.This is what her body wants at the moment, she needs to calm her nerves enough.If letting him savour her lips to his taste will push him to doing anything possible for the rescue of her company, then she wouldn't mind letting him be."Ferd… Ferdinand…" she called him.He stared into her eyes and smiled. "Say it out, I want to hear you speak."She breathed heavily. "I'm sorry, but I can't do this. Just let go.""It's the opposite, I guess." He slammed his lips on hers again, she responded fully to it.He wants just one thing from her, and being awake won't give him that.He kissed him down to his neck and then to her chest, gently, get pulled down her sleeveless."Ferdinand…"He glanced at her face, it revealed how weak she was. If she wasn't weak in his arms, a thunderous slap would have followed
THE FUCKING NEWS."Many months ago, ma'am Melita was in love with a young man by name Hendrix. She wasn't just in love, but they were in a relationship." Christine paused and cleared her throat.Ferdinand was all ears, at least, he's a bit relieved that Melita was once in a relationship."She loved him from the depth of her heart, and was ready to do anything for him because of love, but it all ended that Hendrix was only faking to love her just because of her wealth…""Ma'am Melita was a virgin when they met, and she had planned to give out her virginity on their wedding night. But Hendrix raped her…" She broke out into tears. "Not only that, he injected a hard drug into her body so she can be asleep for so long, and then she stole her money, the ones he could find and ran away till today."Ferdinand gripped her palm. "Can you remember the name of the drug injected in her?"She nodded. "Depo Provera, after she got awake again, the doctor announced to us that she had lost her womb du
THE INDUSTRY."Hey! Come over here." Melita called the usher nearby, the young lady cascaded towards her and bowed."Ma'am.""Take away all these from here." She ordered her.The lady first grabbed the bottles and glasses then left their sight.Ferdinand lifted his face. "What's going on? Why should she take away what I'm relishing here?"With the look on his face, and how weak and narrowed his eyes were, you don't need to be told that he has drunk himself to stupor."I ordered her to take them away, you've taken enough already." She slammed and grabbed his hand again.He forcefully pulled away from her. "I want more drinks, besides I'm not yet drunk.""Jerk! Stand, let's leave, you're badly drunk." She muttered to him, but in an annoying voice.He shook his head. "I'm going nowhere.""Uhmmm! The usher will take some bottles to the car, so you can drink while I drive." She framed up a lie.He smiled. "Are you serious? That's very interesting." He chuckled and slowly stood up, but his
. AT THE PARTY."Stop all these Ferdinand." She yelled on top of her voice, gripping his curled hair.He didn't care, all he was concerned at the moment was how sweet her skin was to lick on.He bit her earlobe and licked it causing her to quiver a bit, but she comported herself."Tell me you don't love those feelings of being with a man." He whispered to her ear.She pinched her ear. "Kindly let go of me or you wouldn't love my next action." She warned him.He grinned and placed his palms on her boobs, but she slipped off his arms this time."Why are you testing my patience Ferdinand? I'm only being kind to all this stupidity because it's you." She roared, her eyes revealed how annoyed she was.He smiled at her. "Having fun with you is a sign of stupidity in me huh?" He licked his lips. "Do you even know how many women that want me? Why are you behaving like a lesbian when I haven't seen you that way? You should be glad to contract someone that's treating you like a woman regardless
GETTING READY FOR THE CEREMONY. "You can't wear something useless and leave with me, you'll get into the car and we'll go to the boutique." Melita ordered him.He nodded. "Who's gonna reject that offer? Me?" He shook his head. "You stand and let's leave please."She scoffed and looked off him while dressing up, he waited for her until she was fully dressed and they left the room together.They drove off with her car to one of the best and classic boutiques in town, then they stepped out of the car."Now listen to me Ferdinand, you ought to respect yourself here. Don't mess up or I'll act like I don't know who you are." She warned him.He sniffed. "Oh! When you act that way, get ready for the world to know what you're hiding.""Ferdinand…." She screamed.He arched his brows and dragged her by the hand and they moved into the enormous building filled with all kinds of clothes, shoes and other wears."Which way to follow." Ferdinand asked, confused."Maybe you'll climb on my head instea
THE INVITATION.Miriam and Alexa stared at them as Ferdinand kissed her without taking a breath.His arms were wrapped around her waist, while hers was around his neck.They weren't taking a break at all.Christine sighted what was going on and stood watching what would be the ladies' reactions..Alexa bit her lips while her palms clenched together. Gosh! She couldn't bear what was going in again, so she made her way through the door.Miriam swallowed deeply, she wished she was the one getting such a passionate kiss from Ferdinand.She swirled her neck to the left to see Christine smiling at her. She scoffed and walked out of the building too in order not to feel embarrassed.Few seconds after the two ladies left, he broke up the kiss.Melita stared at his face for a while and landed a heavy slap on his face."Why did you do that without my permission?"He smirked. "Why then did you respond to it when you don't want it?" He scratched his head. "Dammit! You're a bad kisser, can I….."Sh
