ONE YEAR LATERStanding right in front of my reflection, my eyes fell on my gorgeous self. Dressed in a sleeveless white gown, today was the day I've waited all my life for.I'd finally be a graduate, nothing can stop that from happening now. From the mirror I could see my graduation robe lying clean and ironed on my bed. It was like a dream come true.For months my relationship with Branden has been nothing but rosy and peaceful, ever since he forced me into sleeping with him a year ago he has been nothing but calm and quiet.He mended his relationship with his father and brother, although there is still a visible gap between three of them but they aren't enemies anymore.My final year days were pleasant although I didn't have much time to spend with Branden, he always made the most of the times we spent together.We resumed our outings, we made beautiful memories despite our busy schedules. I turned into a celebrity after a while, I came across paparazzi anytime I left early for lect
DIANAI retreated back to the rest room to ease myself, on my way back so many coursemate of mine approached me cheerfully, we exchanged greetings and plodded back to our seats.Loud music reverberated from the huge speaker across the arena. The show started off with a speech from the Vice chancellor."Good morning to everyone at this ceremony, It is an honour to award and present the current outgoing set. They have studied, worked and dedicated themselves into learning for the betterment of their lives and the community at large. Shortly before we present their award we would love to acknowledge some prestigious personalities: Dr Frank Aiden, Hon Leo James, Mrs Joyce Smith......" My attention towards the host rapidly increased on hearing Mrs Smith's name. Braden's mother attended the graduation ceremony? Why? Was I the reason? Is she standing for Branden? Wow! If she was going to be filling in for Braden then it's possible that he won't make it.All of a sudden the feeling of amazem
DIANAThe huge figure reached out to a switch beside him and flipped it on. A white bright light shone from the ceiling, making the lab visible and bright. I veered my eyes towards the unidentified man and scanned his profile repeatedly, he looked very familiar. I must have seen him somewhere but I don't recall where."Don't you remember me?" he said with a beaming smile on his face. Flashbacks from the past suddenly hit me, reminding me of who he was.Fuck! I know this man!"Remember me now?" he flashed a smile at me and advanced towards me slowly. I reversed my steps back, terrified to see this evil man once again. The same man hired by some goons to kidnap me. I remember it like it was yesterday.He sat comfortably at the driver's seat and alighted the windows glass to see me clearly. He was putting on a blue shirt inside the car, trying to cajole and persuade me into entering the car with him.I was so lucky to have escaped that treacherous incident. What the fuck is he doing he
DIANA "Surprise!!!" Branden's loud voice resonated through my eardrums as I dashed out of the building in terror. "Branden?" I strained my eyes for better sight, it seemed like I was in a trance or a dream. He was definitely the last person I was expecting."Yes baby.... I came for my baby girl on her big day" He tucked his hands back into his pocket and slowly walked towards me, his eyes radiating with so much happiness.My heavy heart deduced it's weight as I stopped panting from the run.I was mortified to see him not just because he was dressed in a black fancy tuxedo but because I never expected to see him today. He blew my graduation ceremony for his work and now he is here? Standing cheerfully waiting for me to burst out of the doors like an animal. I was running for my dear life not knowing it was all a plan.It took a little time to process all that had happened and all that was in front of me.Behind Branden was a big black BMW, well polished and designed with scarlett ribb
DIANA I turned to see Branden sleeping gracefully beside me, his snores quiet and calm. What does this man do that I don't know? Why were my parents pictures in his study room? Maybe he was just trying to dig into my past and then he got those pictures, maybe he means no harm. I couldn't tell for sure. My instincts are pressuring me to walk into his study but I can't stand up, Branden's arms are around me, restricting me from moving. I'll have to wait till tomorrow when he is at work then, I'll sneak into his study again and see if I can find more information. "Branden isn't who he says he is" those words continued to purge my mind as I laid beside Branden. What if that man wasn't lying? Maybe there is something about Branden that he knows and I don't. ******** The awe inspiring sun dashed across the blue bright sky, penetrating it's rays through the drapery white curtains. I peeled open my eyes, at first my vision blurred for quit some time before it readjusted well. Branden
DIANAHis brushing became faster and more aggressive, moans left my belly and escaped my mouth. Fuck! Go inside me Branden! As if hearing my thoughts he held his hard length and pushed the cap into me"Ohhhh" I moaned to his sweet thrust. He pushed further and released his full length inside me, a sudden painful sting hit me but the feeling thereafter was sweet.His pace fastened immediately, brushing and hitting my inside as I simultaneously released moans to every thrust of his. He divulged into me speedily and thrusted faster and faster.My legs quivered vigorously as the table underneath me threatened to throw me to the ground. My head followed a back and forth movement.Branden pulled out and slammed his hard wet length on my vibrating clit, three slams of his caused me to shake to the sensation.He inserted it back inside me and started off with a slower tempo, mildly brushing my insides with his veins. I could feel myself high above the clouds.My lips parted to release more
DIANAI shrugged off the disturbing thoughts of Sylvester trying to harm me, I have a pocket knife and that alone should give me confidence to face him."I found drugs in Branden's study cabinet, I don't know what that means" I replied."What's bad in having drugs? He is probably sick or something" Sylvester smirked. It's so hard to keep up with him, why doesn't he know when to quit."I'm not talking about medicine, I'm talking about hard drugs. Rusty lethal drugs in his cabinet" "And why does that bother you?" He picked up his cup of coffee and took a sip. "He is my man and I live in his house, If I find harmful substances where I live. Don't you think I have the right to know what they are doing there?" I scowled his reply.He sighed and went mute for while, I could see that he was feeling reluctant to speak up. There is definitely something he knows that I don't.After all, Branden is his brother so he should be aware of his brother's affairs."Look Diana, I don't think you shoul
DIANAIt was late at night by 11 pm, after a hot make out session with Branden, I left him asleep on the bed.The urge to go back into Branden's study was growing again, I don't want to waste my time searching for things I might never see. I think it's best I meet this mystery man to provide more information to me.I slid into a jean and jacket and walked out of the room, my major challenge was going through his guards without having to deal with so many questions.It's quite impossible, they might tell on me. Whatever it might take, I'd keep trying.I ambled out of the house to met Branden's two bodyguards, they took a bow and stared at me for a while.Damn it! What do I say to them?"I need to attend to my sister, she's having a asthmatic attack I need to see her" I faked my panic and anxiousness."Do you need me to alert Mr Branden?" A bodyguard of his said."No absolutely not, I don't want to disturb him. And don't say a word about this to him, he's been helping so much I don't wa
Palm trees swayed to the aggressive breeze that swept across the gloomy horizon. Heavy rain watered the grass and umbrellas were raised to shield from the rain.It was a sad and cold evening. The smiths alongside the press, Branden's relatives, friends, co partners, shareholders, Clifield university's staffs, Evelyn, Jane, men of high caliber, and Diana were all present at the funeral.Soul drained and eyes swollen, Diana was depressed and broken. Nothing could fill the void in her heart, not money, not posession, not parties or friends could spark up a little glimpse of happiness in her.Her heart repeatedly pierced by the emotions she couldn't bear nor control, it all seemed like a dream, the nightmare she was dying to crawl out from.Her one true love was gone, the man she had lived years with, gave her all to. Diana couldn't help but soliloquize. "Do I deserve to live? He is in the grave because of me, what's the use of living without him?"As if loosing her parents wasn't enough,
DIANA"Branden you're ok?!" my stupefied self asked. He blinked twice and morphed out a smile, words couldn't describe how happy I was to see him awake.I embraced him and held him tight, I never thought I'd touch or feel him again. "Diana" he uttered mildly, I could detect the lack of energy and life in his voice. It was low, almost equivalent to a whisper."Branden are you ok? How do you feel now?" "Don't worry about me, how are you? Did those thugs touch you?" he asked."No they didn't, I'm so sorry for putting you in this mess, I didn't mean to. Yes we did things in the past that we regret but this wasn't my prayer for you....."I kept expressing myself like it was the last time I would ever speak to him. A pool of tears formed around my eyelid and I didn't hesitate to let them fall."I understand Diana, it was never my intention to kill your parents, Yes it was planned but I didn't want to be part of it. I was threatened be present when your parents were drugged, I was just a y
DIANAMy heart skipped the minute I saw him fall, what the hell just happened? I hope it's not what I'm thinking.I pushed his door and rushed out to see him on the floor, blood gushing out of him profusely. My heart failed me that minute."Branden are you ok?! Branden? Branden?" I screamed to his unconscious self. My world came crashing and fear saturated all over me. Automatically tears fell from my eyes.Am I dreaming? The men already ran away, how would I help Branden?"Somebody help!!" I yelled to whoever was listening but the street was completely empty as my yells reverberated across the area.My knees caved me to the floor and my eyes watered my cheeks as I watched the only man I ever loved with everything in me lie half dead on the floor.I wiped my tears and tried to lift him up, I pulled him with every muscle I had in me. My efforts weren't yielding much but I didn't give up.I needed to take him to the hospital. I can and must, if he spends another minute here he might be
ONE YEAR LATERDIANAI briskly walked into the ward, my eyes carefully examined the patient lying half dead as his eyes were closed.Other nurses were in the ward too, they had already began operation on the patient. He was loosing blood, too much blood.With the in-depth knowledge of the field, we all put our heads together and kept constant faith as we operated on the man.To be a doctor, I needed to undergo trainings at teaching hospitals so here I am in the teaching hospital, putting heads together with others to save this man's life.I wish I had the ability to save my parents life like this. It's been a full year since i knew Branden was the killer, it still haunts me everyday.I cry myself to sleep every night, It taunts my inner being everytime. I still love Branden and that bothers me up till date, he became a very big part of my life. When I left, I didn't just leave my feelings behind, I also left a big part of my soul and heart.No matter how many times I tried to cover th
DIANAWhat was I thinking? I didn't even care to examine his past. I should have left when I had the chance."How could I leave? All this secrets were buried up somewhere, far from reach. How could I have known?"Fuck! my whole life is ruined, I made love to him, I gave him my body over and over again. I was ready to spend my life with him. It all ends tonight.If Branden is really responsible for the death of my parents then I'd kill myself, I'll commit suicide.I have nothing to live for, how can I break this news to Jane? How would she feel? I kept my eyes on the road and my hands on the steering, the urge to drive into a tree or drive into a wall was sprouting up in my heart. I felt lifeless even though I was alive, he fucking knew about all this and didn't say a thing. He made me walk into his life and give my heart to him irrespective of the fact that he was behind my parents demise.I'll be the reason behind his demise, I can't let him destroy my family and then come into the
DIANA"It was a long time ago, we were careless teenagers back then. He was my senior. We took drugs and partied but I was never addicted to taking drugs, I just took them in special occasions, to impress everyone around me" He took his sit and sat on it. Shit! So Sylvester was right! Branden was really into drugs back then, I didn't completely believe him but this confirms it."He gave me a very hard drug, one my body couldn't take. It affected me for months, I spent nights in the hospital fighting to survive from the harmful drug. And guess what..... Branden slept with my girlfriend in college" He added. I could see pure regret in his eyes, Damn! Was Branden really that much of a bad person? But all this was in the past so what's the use of judging him now?"Is that why you hate Branden so much?" I gave him a not-so-impressed look. Which I'm pretty sure he understood."Well.... you won't get it, you won't understand my pain" he added. This must have happened 10-15 years ago, why is
