“Are you ok dear” Nicholas ask his niece who looked broken and tattered beyond recognition“Am fine uncle, Aunty hates me “Vivian cried out loud“Do not say that““But it true, I have tried to make her like me but she detest me, she dislike me why uncle, what have I done to her““Do not mind her, will talk to her later ok now go and clean up “From a daddy’s angel who had the world at her feet to a teenager who is now living in the slum has been very hard for Vivian to adjust but she did and in a fast pace too. She tried to help in any possible way she could, hawking, stealing or washing clothes for her neighbors to put food on the table, she wanted her aunty to like her at least but Mica was not seeing her effort, she still dreams of the emerald jeweled mansion, the latest cars, the parties she threw and dance to her heart content, the expensive wine and the exotic foods she had at her disposal but now it just a memory and she would not have it, she has to escape this nightmare and
“Hey, are you ok little girl can you hear me““Who are you calling little““What““I said who are you calling little, pipsqueak““You are a feisty one, aren’t you““Go away, do not make me get up there““And how are you getting up here if I may ask, you are struck are you not““No am not, go away““Ok then, have a loving day, little one“Alex laughed in his head, what kind of a girl is this, she is too prideful to ask for help but he wanted to see how this will turn out. He hid himself behind a wall and watched as she struggled to get free from her entrapment. Frustrated he walked to her and help her get freed.“Put me back, I can do it myself““Really, you have been down here for close to an hour now““I do not care, just put me back I did not ask for your help““You are just unbearable, a simple thank you will be good““I do not have the energy to say that word besides I told you I could do it, if you had only minded your business, now excuse me“She pushed pass him and Alex was int
The town is quiet than usual that night. Shops, restaurants and night clubs are all shut down. The streets barren of any living or supernatural entity. The moon changed it color to red, lives will be taken this night, blood will be slipped and the future of the country will be decided. Even Anubis is on the edge as his hands will be full of souls to take to the underworld. Most billionaires and CEO’s have travel out of the country to hide, some with their families are in their safe rooms designed under their homes completely secured and well stocked , few are supporting the war with their money but too afraid to make themselves known. The two great families are at war and no one wants to be caught in the cross fire. “George do you think this is a good idea, innocent people lives will be at risk“ “There is no such thing as innocent in this world you of all people should know that, do not worry dear this has long been overdue, if we do not act , it will affect our next bloodline“ “The
Inside a Mercedes Benz in front of Motel Flamingo, a man was on the phone having a heated conversation. He ended the call and within a few minutes a woman got out from one of the rooms and approached the car in a hurry. She knocked and waited patiently to be invited in. The window glass was lowered. She heard a clicked sound before she opened the car and sat down, the window glass was sealed back up again. She turned to look at the man’s face but her eyes rested on her thigh. The tension she felt coming from him was suffocating making breathing very difficult for her to do.“Are you toying with me “he spoke slowly, anger laced in his tone, he was annoyed and pissed making him very frightening? “No Ray, I will not do that to you, we are grateful for everything you have done for us“ She replied with a slow and forgiving voice “Then why the wait“ “I just need more time to prepare her……..“ “To hell with you" Ray chuckled "Time, did you say time. I have been paying outrageous bills from
Ever since my parents died I have been lonely, people kept leaving me and I felt like a curse.My spirit kills everyone near me and I felt disgusted with myself. First my mother destroyed our perfect home with her evil deeds breaking my father’s heart. He could not take it and ended his life with her. He did not think about me at all, his love for her was so deep he went with her to the afterlife. Uncle Nicholas was the only one who cared like Grandma Lily but they fought because of me. Grandma Lily wanted to raise me and my curse made her sick, so sick she had to be let go to ease her pain and suffering. I was told her soul went to heaven but I know there is no such thing as paradise or God just endless darkness, the living world and the lifeless world, the only different is the monsters here in the land of the living smile with you and cut you deep into your heart. Uncle Nick took me in with Aunty Mica and it was fun, they took me out of school, we travelled out a lot and enjoy diffe
“Going once, going twice and sold to Mr. Ray Cruz for 500,000 dollars” Applause filled the room, all going to Ray Cruz the Millionaire, he singlehandedly raise the Escort business into a multimillion business, making it one of the Country’s highest revenue. “Congratulations and we thank everyone for making time for this auction have a loving evening “ “Mr. Cruz, yet again you stole another exquisite beauty from me “accused by Malcolm Green “Mr. Green am lucky I guess “Ray answered “Luck runs out one day” Malcolm Green shot back “Maybe but today is my day and I will make the most out of it“ “Ray, is Malcom Green bothering you again” asked Gideon Bronze, the Vice President of the Minister of Finance office “No, just congratulating me for winning yet another pearl into my ocean“ “A pearl, no this one takes the lead in all of them, a phoenix “ “I like that a phoenix, that will be her stage name“ “Good, I cannot wait to see her in action, Ray train her well for my visit I want to
River of tears blasted out when the car door was shut, she was so pained by everything, she hope Aunty Mica would have a change of heart and call her back shoving that dirty money to the Man and choosing her over wealth but that was a dream, a stupid dream in her childish head, hope she was still holding on but she guessed this is her life now, “I hope you are happy now Mother, because of you this is how my life will be, a prostitute, I will sell myself to survive, you own blood how could you push me to this dark pit, how could you ruin my life mother, how could you destroy a loving home, how could you” she questioned her dead mother in her head as if she could hear her, blaming her for all her misfortunes but a spilled milk cannot be saved. She tried to wipe her tears with her hands and Jazz seeing this offered her a handkerchief “Here, use this” he offered “Thank you, will pay you back for this kindness“ “Do not worry about it, you can keep it” gifting her the handkerchief “No I
“What do you mean am sharing my room, who is she and why does she get to sleep in my room“ “Mr. Ray arranged it“ “What, why will he do that“ “What do you mean why and you of all people know we never question the Boss. Now go to your room peacefully and be the elegant beauty we know you to be“ Star stomped her feet and marched off into the yard. She was angered by this betrayal from Ray. She is his woman, well technically his woman because he calls on her more than any of the other ladies and that makes her the heart of the Company. She has his ear too so her authority in the House is higher than the rest. She makes Ray millions of cash on her every outing, bleeding herself dry to please Ray. But this disgrace will not be tolerated. She took out her phone and called him, it rings but no answer. She calls again and again and finally on the fourth time, he answered. “Yes” Ray answered clearly pissed “Am sorry to disturb you baby but I need you” Star made her voice so sweet and sad
Kelvin got scared after listening to Vivian. His back hair all got up and his heart pumps faster. What kind of a man can Ray be to make her so afraid of him? Is she exaggerating? Yes that is it because there is no way a guy like Ray can kill a fly but why is his heart so scared of the outcome. He needs to come down. When he is calm he can think well. Kelvin made a dive to the home bar and serve himself a drink. His hand trembles before he push forward and grabs the glass. He down the whole content into his mouth and squeeze his face as the bitterness descends into his throat. “Am not afraid of you Ray, you cannot do anything to me" Saying it out loud to calm himself, maybe just maybe if his brain hears this, it could give him the peace of mind he wants. Vivian looked on as Kelvin drown himself in alcohol. She knew that would not save him and she didn’t bother to hate him either. She knew crying will not resolve anything but deep inside her heart there was this itch that won’t go aw
Mica yawn and walks to the fridge to refresh her mind with coffee, she watched the cam recording all night yesterday and has come to a conclusion. Vivian was not kidnapped she run away and it is either she fooled that bimbo bitch or they planned it together. She needed to make sure they didn’t have a mole in their midst. She walks to the balcony with her coffee still in her hand and looked down the streets to see that bimbo furious on the phone. She couldn’t make the call out but from her body language she was pissed. Mica watched her display her acting and headed inside.Poppy opened the door and comes in after her charade in the streets, she turns and saw this witch sitting elegantly and sipping from her mug. She rolled her eyes because she knows who that thing is and she is not ready to be friendly to a tramp who has no soul. She was there when Ray called her to come to Port City and he answered her questions as Vivian’s aunty and also she was the one who sold her to Ray. She was t
“You sure took your time before getting here Mica" Ray was like a beast lose from it cage. He was biting anyone and everyone he could get his hands on. He needs her to relief his pain. He needs her here and now. Mica waltz in and was expecting to see an elegant man like before not this shadow of a person who looks so unkempt.“You sure have let yourself go Ray, how distressing, and all for what? Vivian. You are acting like you haven’t slept with her yet after all this years. She isn’t innocent anymore, you know right or was she that great in bed that you still lust after her?. “ If looks could speak, it will say a lot of things to Mica right now but that glance exposed his hidden truth to the world. He never did anything with Vivian because he was waiting for her to feel more comfortable with him and to give herself to him freely. He may be a bastard but he cherish what he sees a future with and care for it intimately like a kid with a new limited toy. “You got to be fucking kidding
“Hey Kelvin……Kelvin where are you going, the strippers are about to come on stage " “I need air, just leave me alone for a bit ok and Darius enjoy yourself; will join you soon" “But Kelvin, you will miss the whole purpose of us coming here. You dragged us here and now you are being a bad host" A hand touch the shoulder of Darius; a long time friend of Kelvin Wood since their childhood days. Darius was the one who knows most about Kelvin and how his brain works. Back in school he followed him and Alex around but leaned toward Kelvin when the Mace Empire collapsed. So their close friends know if you want to meet Kelvin ask Darius and he will help you.“Where is Kelvin going, I thought we came to enjoy ourselves and to shed the stress of Port City away? So why is he walking on the streets and moving away from the club" “I don’t really know. He just got out and asked to be left alone for a minute" “Then leave him alone bro. You know his dad has been on him for decades now and it is br
The Taxi arrived at the Train station and Vivian hurriedly paid and stepped out. She bought a ticket, one way trip to a small town at the outskirts of Port City. Spending almost three hours in the train, it finally reached its destination and she got off. She went to the run me down motel and booked a lodging. Finally her fears started to leave her, she left at peace and more encouraged that she can really do this; she can have a life without looking over her shoulders. And her first step is to go back to her old home, she will meet her aunty, she will rebuild her life, her self then she will hunt Mica down. That old witch needs to be taught a lesson and she will not hold out on her.The sun started to climb the sky little by little and before long the rays had penetrate into her room and shone on her face. Her eyes open for the first time as a free woman and she loves the feeling, of being her own person and not impressing anyone with makeup. She got cleaned up and packed up to conti
Poppy took her sweet time before she came back to the bathroom, she walked to the cubicle and saw that the one Vivian was in was empty. She smiled to herself "Good girl, now you will be dead in the next hour. I have finally won and you will be sleeping with the fishes at the bottom of the sea. Better luck next time when you are reborn” She rushed out and started screaming at the bodyguard. People started looking at her like a mad woman. Her acting made the bodyguard rush to the bathroom and personally check the cubicle one by one. The guard rushed out and saw Poppy’s phone ringing. She guessed it will be Boss Ray but she cut the call and redial again. “Miss Poppy she is not in the bathroom" "Of cause she is not there, I just checked, look for her around the mall. Am sure she hasn’t gone far, hurry up or Ray will kill us" Poppy continue her call to Ray who picked up smiling. He had gotten notifications of the girls’ expense and he can’t believe they are getting along. Judging from
Mid-afternoon pushed the morning sky away showing it dominance. The door bell rang and Ray opened up after checking the security camera. Poppy walked in and kissed Ray seductively, her hand found it way onto his crotch squeezing it softly ." I missed you"His breathe so faded and his heart breathing rapidly, this woman is messing with his mind and heart, such lust" I can see that but .... wait Vivian is here ".This made Poppy so annoyed, why is that girl's name on everyone's lips today. If she hears her name again she will explode into bits" But she is not here in this room, she is getting ready for the outing; let go into the other room please my god. I need you "" Poppy relax after the outing I will satisfy you"" I want it now, right here. I will not be loud promise "" Let go then"Two minutes and moans filled the room reaching the ears of Vivian who was dressing up, she wore a black short dress with high heels and pulled her hair up into messy bun. She knew Poppy will pull th
After breakfast, Vivian left to her room to get ready and Ray made calls for the girls outing. He swapped the whole entourage to ladies , then no man can have dirty dreams of his women. He wanted to join too but no he will let them bond their own way and they will plan a more extravagant one for them three in the near future. He will shower them both with love and gifts but Vivian will be the one who will inherit his name, the one who will give birth to his children." Am one lucky bastard indeed, to be able to bag an angel and a seductress . And they all are loyal to me fully. This is the ultimate dream for any man"He dial Poppy's number and by the second ring she picked up, he arranged everything with her and warned her to be very careful with her mouth and not say anything to bring any misunderstanding. He wants them to get along and together they will be happy. Poppy agreed and promise Ray to not disappoint him and that she will show him that she loves him more than he can ever
Freedom they say is addictive, and just a taste can make a man mad. Knowing she could feel the air in her hair and the sun on her face , she dared to venture and have a taste in the devil's pot." You called me to come"" Yes I wanted to understand what is in it for you, you are letting me go so I need to know what you will gain"" This back and forth is giving me a severe headache, if you don't want to leave ok, fine by me"Poppy dragged Vivian by the nose and she knows she has her where she wants, damn brat will rue the day she messed with her"Poppy please, wait . Thank you for having such an idea but it understandable why am suspicious. You hate me "." Wait , hate is a strong word to describe us , I will say we just avoid each other. We are both queens and we all know two queens can never be in the same boat right? And two of us can't share Ray. I love him, you don't . So it right for you to leave all these things for me to do . Just your presence is making everything I do so har
