April
As the Elevator doors glided open on Jordan's floor I felt nervous than usual.
Am I actually staring at the door of Jordan's room all naked beneath a trench coat? Did I actually sneak up here with dark shades on as disguise and heels?
I've lost my mind and not even a second thought can snap me back--hell I'd broken three rules already, what's another one going to do?
I snapped out of my trance when the doorknob slowly twisted and Jordan stepped into view. He looked at me inquisitively.
"How long have you been standing here?" His deep voice had the power to make me melt.
"I...not..a..a few seconds" I stuttered "a few seconds ago" I walked into the room and was jaw dropped to see the magnificent view. It looked way better than mine. More like a presidential suite.
I didn't have enough time to take it all in because when he appeared before me, his lips p

Chapter 19AprilIt's been four days since we got back from the trip and two more days to the grand wedding.I'd gone with Megan and Vanessa for our final dress fitting and everything was sheer perfection.As her Bridesmaids, we settled for an ankle-length Straight burgundy gown made from thick chiffon material. It had a low neckline that highlighted our cleavage.I rubbed King lee's head as we watched one of my favorite shows on Tv.And for the umpteenth time today, Jordan called me again and like i did before, i didn't respond to his calls.*Are you avoiding me?*His text read.I honestly don't know what I'm doing right now but i know I need to stay very far away from his hurtful body.Since we got back to NYC, i had tried every possible means to maintain my distance and that's going to continue even at t

Chapter 20AprilPresent Day"I'm coming" I screamed with a mouthful of cake, rising up to my feet from the sofa in the living room to get the door.I saw only the neck of the person through the peephole and wondered who it could be this Sunday morning.I was certain it couldn't be Jordan since I didn't tell him where i lived. But i was wrong.I opened the door to see him glaring at me.I wanted to quickly go back inside and shut the door but as if he knew, he quickly entered through the vulnerable space i left open."You may come in," i said sarcastically, shutting the door behind me."I've already given you one whole week to get your proud ass together and I'm taking no more. " He turned around to face me. "What's all this about?""What's what about?" I folded my arms and intentionally acted unaware of the

I paced back and forth in Vanessa's bedroom."Calm down April. Relax and tell me what's wrong""It's Jordan and I." I finally sat close to her on the bed, my legs intertwined and arms folded."What's wrong with you and Jordan?" She asked, turning to face me fully."Anytime we have sex, I don't feel it anymore.

I don't even want you at home and you know what? I think it's high time I leave this place" I slowly retreated to go back to the bedroom"Wait" he called out, slowly walking to cover the distance between us. "I am sorry April.

Chapter 31I peeped from the balcony to see the cops arriving at my house. I went into the room and awaited their arrival. Like perfect timing, Belcarlis eyes twitched and then fully open."Morning" she greeted and I didn't respond."Are you okay?" She continued and I remained silent still.I was still in denial of something that was glaring at me with genuine evidence."How could you?" I asked"What's wrong?" She sat upright"Why did you do it!" I exclaimed and became furious at the way she exuded innocence whereas she had been deceitful all this while.The cops barged into my room observing all protocols before cuffing and dragging her out."What's going on here? I didn't do anything. Jordan" she called outI stood still trying to get a grip as her voice trailed off."We need to go" Jaso

Chapter 30AprilDuring my days in this dingy place, I'd come to learn its a human trafficking chain that preys on female victims who are later sold into the Mexican border where they end up mostly sex slaves.According to the activities that have been going on, we were going to be moved in a matter of days and it bothered me a lot to know that we might not be found. I had no idea where we were or how to escape but, I was willing to take a chance on it. I'd made friends with a couple of ladies and together we will escape tonight and alert the authorities to come save the others who are too wounded to make a run for it.As the time drew near, I became nervous and scared but at the same time willing to risk it all. I'd made so many of them count on me and I am not ready to let them down. I won't let myself down. Diego suddenly walked into the room with a gun in hand and Sameera followed suit behi

Chapter 29AprilA few days ago.The past few days have been a joyful rollercoaster. I was almost getting used to coming home to meet him until this morning because he would be going back to his place tonight. The selfish part of me wanted to make him permanent residence at my place but I had to be considerate.My mum accepting Jordan wholeheartedly because she trusts my judgment was one of the major highlights. I know it'll take more time for her to accept Jordan fully and all I just have to do is wait until then. I trust Jordan not to mess things up and she trusts me."I'm sorry Megan" I faked pity with my voice as I used my shoulder to secure the phone properly on my ear whilst going through the bulky folder on my des

Chapter 28Days LaterAprilMy eyes slowly drifted open to accommodate the strange surrounding. I tried to sit up and saw my hands restrained and cuffed to each side of the bed I'd been placed on. The realization of the frightening situation dawned on me. I tried to recall the events before the blackout and remembered my call with Megan to meet up at my place for movie night, my excitement to tell Jordan I was leaving in person, and storming out of his office after catching him in a compromising position with Belcarlis. I also remember getting in my car and almost turning on the ignition when someone gagged me with a handkerchief that I figured must have been doused in chloroform because it immediately made me unconscious.Have I been kidnapped? The horror of where I could be and what could be done to me left me in fury. My gown was still intact a

Chapter 26AprilI woke up the next morning clutched in Jordan's arms. The time on the wall gave me a rude awakening. I tried to break free from his embrace to no avail and felt his grip tighten around me."It's almost seven Jordan. I need to get ready for work." I groaned."Five more minutes" He whispered into the back of my ear. His voice, raspy.I looked around my room in silence and when the five minutes elapsed, I slapped him on his arm softly."I really have to get dressed now""Good morning to you too tease, " he said sarcastically and I chuckled.
