~DAVE~It was the bastard. I just knew it!"Oh wow! Look who's here? Fucking Dave Anosova!" His voice echoed in the early morning street."Do you intend on killing me before the actual fun begins? Who does that?" I questioned with my hands on my waist.He presented a crooked smirk. "Only a coward does that, buddy.""It's good to know who you are." " Don't get me wrong. Why would I kill you? You know I don't do that. I was coming to you because I knew you can't wait just as I can't either."He lighted a cigar."What do you mean?"" Nothing, I just happened to know how that tiny brain of yours works so I decided to come and meet you to save you the trouble and look, I met you on the way. You're still as impatient as you were before." He remarked." You know I don't like to waste time."" So well well, we meet again." He laughed, not moving from where he sat as he continuously puffed smoke into the air." But it's different this time."" Yes, but who cares? I'm going
~LEONA~When I finally woke up I felt like I've been captured in a trunk as I couldn't move my body.Every part of my body was hurting and my head was worse. It took me a minute before I recollected what happened and I shot up from my sleeping position and looked around but there was no sight of Yolando or his driver.I can't believe he kept me in his car all night... I stopped when I saw that it wasn't the same car and if it was the same car, then the mirrors have been fixed but I know Yolando won't waste his money to repair a car. He'll just abandon it. So it's a different car.Out of all the places I thought I would wake up to I never imagined it would be in a car. I was thinking I would wake up in one of his torture rooms all tied up in a chair connected with spikes.I moved my hands to my head but flinched when I felt a rough fabric. I'm sure it was his gun he inflicted the pain on my head with.I tried the door of the car and it opened. I was surprised. Why would
~DAVE~"I'd like to have a word with her before you take her, Lando!" I shouted and they stopped walking.He turned and smirked crookly at me."You're pathetic, you know that right?" Lando laughed." Just excuse us for a moment."" Try as hard as you want, Anosova. We all know you've run out of luck for good this time. Nothing you say will change her mind but I can give you another chance to give her your pathetic speech. Who knows, it might just work. Try your luck, buddy even though it looks like you've run out of it.."I almost thanked him for this mistake he just made.Lando shouldn't have given his permission so quickly because I won't leave any stone unturned to bring Leona to my side.I'm going to knock every fear from her and make her see just how powerless Lando is without his guns and men. He walked to his car and when he was about to get in, he turned to us."I forgot to ask the queen if she is okay with talking to you. Pardon me, my lady." He said dramatica
~LEONA~I rushed to the front to open the door for him."What are you about?" He scowled slightly."Opening the door for you," I replied. Yeah. I know how that sounds thanks to gender roles but he's hurt." I'm driving. I'm not handicapped." He said with finality in his tired voice but he pouted." Are you crazy? I can't let you drive." I argued. His entire shirt was almost soaked with blood." No, I'm already injured, I can't afford to get thrown into a ditch." The difficulty with which his voice came was visible this time."And what exactly do you mean?" I frowned. "Exactly what you're thinking."Only If he knew how good I am behind the wheel." Then it'll be better if I throw us into a ditch than allow you to drive in this state." I rounded the car and sat behind the wheel. Fortunately, the key was already in the ignition.I waited for him to join but he just stood there. God! This man."What are you still standing there for?" I groaned in irritation."I don't… trust you to drive
~LEONA~"Argue with me about this and I am going to take it out on your body somehow.. regardless of my injury." He warned and stepped into the washroom."You know I don't mind." I teased and followed him into the washroom." Really? "I didn't answer and instead, I went to his front and got on my knees.He took in a long sharp breath before releasing it."You are on your knees, Leona." "Yes, what is wrong with that?" I asked and pulled his shorts down then he stepped out of them slowly."Just take that off." He pointed to my bathrobe." Not happening," I said and traced my hand on his thick length.He exhaled another sharp breath and pushed his front to my face."What do you want, sweetheart?" I rubbed him up and down then raised my eyes to meet his seductively.His eyes turned dark immediately and he licked the corner of his lips. His actions cause things to stir in me. Only Dave is capable of turning me on with just his eyes but I won't give in. I have a better idea."Fuck. Leon
~LEONA~What the fuck! I've seen in so many movies people falling down the stairs but it's not like I ever imagined. All parts of my body ached when I finally land on the ground though it was just a short journey.I opened my eyes and realized I didn't die. Thank goodness.I just hope I don't sustain any injuries. Dave is responsible for this. Why on Earth would he be saying those things when we were busy climbing stairs?He sure picked the right time to make those comments about my son.I tried to get up but somebody else has already lifted me off the ground."Take her upstairs." I heard Dave say and knew it was Raymond's arms I was in.I looked back as Raymond climbed the stairs and saw Leonard in Dave's arms and he was saying something to him while Leonard paid rapt attention.I can't deny how nice it feels to see them this way. I just wished he was actually his.How perfect those words sounded coming from him and how perfect they looked together now. And I can't al
★★DAVE★★“Goodness! What happened to you, son?” Mary was frantic when Leonard and I stepped down from the remaining stairs.“It's nothing major,” I told her, and Leonard left my hand.I saw him climb onto the couch and took a remote in his hand.“Have you taken anything yet?”“Yes, but please would you make me some soup?” I asked and followed her to the kitchen.“ Yes, why not. You must be feeling feverish.”“Not really, but…this shit actually hurts, more than I imagined it would,” I told her and watched her go about the kitchen.“I know. Sorry about that. I really want to know what actually happened.”“ It's a gun wound.” Once the words left my lips, I regretted it.She gasped and the utensils fell from her hand.Women.“What?!” She exclaimed.“Relax, Mary. I'll be fine.”She gave me a once over worried look. “Someone shot you and you say it's nothing major?” “ I appreciate your care, but please don't make me talk much. I just want to take the soup and rest.”“ On it.” She went bac
★YOLANDO★ 'This should be fun. ' I muttered to myself."Undress her!" I commanded and my men started taking it off but it was difficult since she wouldn't stay put."Please don't. Don't do this to me." She pleaded."Stop the pretense, little bitch. I know you like me, I see how you look at me. ""No." She squeaked in horror." Oh yes, you think I don't know. " I slurred and took a seat in front of them.The man among them was just staring into space. He's zoned out completely and I wondered where to but he'd come back when I am buried deep inside his daughter.The witch was crying so much but she was too scared to say something I guess and the two other girls were all shaking from the crying."Let her go. I will undress her myself." I stopped them when she wouldn't stop fighting them.They forced her to me and I took one look at her. Leona is better than her, she's curvy whereas this sister of hers is straight, too straight for my liking.Let's see what she's hiding in there. I got a
TEN MONTHS LATER... LEONAWe just arrived home and I am awed to see the entire family in the decorated living room upstanding in anticipation of our arrival.I was carrying my new baby boy in my arms while Dave carried the girl. Yes, I delivered a boy and a girl twin and it's been a month but we're now returning from the by-force vacation Dave took me a month before my delivery. Everyone couldn't wait to see us and here we are now. Petals of different colors showered on us as we walked into the living room."Aww. They're so adorable and the girl is so cute." Kim squealed and took my baby boy from me.I sat down and everyone took turns to congratulate us, me especially. My mind went back to the day I told Dave that I was pregnant in his office. It's been ten months but I can't forget that astonishing look and his priceless smile when I told him the news. I keep replaying it and anytime I do, I find myself smiling. I've never seen him that happy before...it was so ama
FOUR YEARS LATER.....Yeah.It's been four fucking years and I can't say I'm still the Leona of four years back. I'm twenty-six and I've achieved a lot.I got my masters and I even went further to have a bachelor's in architecture. I work in one of the biggest global companies here in America and aside from that, I work with Dave as his assistant in his architectural firm. Together, we built the firm to a top-notch. Anosova architectural firm is now one of the best in the world. His hard work also took his family business to an even higher level. All this occurred in four years.In four years, I became Mrs. Anosova. When we left that coffee shop, we registered, then advanced our wedding night. It was crazy but felt so right. After a year, we got married properly in a church where all the family including loved ones were present.Should I say I expected to see Lando come but he didn't? Well, I did. He told me he's my shadow so I expected him to be there. Not for that alone but because
🔥FINALE 🔥Leona Grande-AnosovaIt's been a month and right now Dave and I are sitting facing each other in a coffee shop somewhere in Seattle. From Greece, we relocated to one of Dave's mansions here in Seattle. The city is nice and full of coffee shops with really great coffees. Raymond has recovered and I won't say entirely but it's better than before and he's currently at home with Leonard. Leonard will be two years old next month and I can't wait to celebrate his second birthday.On my dad's insistence to work, Dave employed him in his company and my siblings have also returned to their preferred schools. I will remember to pay Dave back every dime he's spending on my family and me. It's a lot and I can't thank him enough.He also allowed me to get on birth control pills after I explained that I will be furthering my education.He made a joke out of it with a cocky remark that he doesn't need any more competition and that, child or no child, he wants me all to himself. He doe
LEONA"Really?" He came even closer, leaned into me and and bit my neck.I looked up at him and caught him staring at my chest with so much hunger and lust but above all, love.With Leonard in my arms, it made my towel pull down, revealing a greater part of my breast leaving only the nipples hidden."Make him sleep, Leo." His voice was begging. His lips moved to kiss the top of my breast but Leonard who hasn't slept yet pushed his head back and placed his little hands on my chest, shielding it from Dave.Dave glared at him and swat Leonard's hands away. "She's my woman, young man.""Seriously Dave. How would he sleep?" I laughed. History isn't repeating, is it?First, it was me fighting Leonard and now Dave fighting him."Then tell him that. He seems to be competing with me."Leonard wasn't having it either. He placed his hand back on my chest and added his head then rolled his baby blue eyes at Dave angrily."What! Did you see that?" Dave grumbled before placing his hand
LEONAI looked at him in absolute shock, my eyes threatening to fall out. This is incredibly unbelievable. I blink multiple times to clear my vision in case I was hallucinating but no. He stood there with his bandages still on him. He didn't look strong but he's here.My hands reached to grip Dave tight and my eyes water. With a shaky voice, I asked. "How?" He limped towards me but I stumbled back. "Are you sure you're not a ghost? I saw your dead body, Raymond. I saw how pale you got. I saw everything. How can you not die?""Don't go away from me, sis." He winced and stopped limping towards me."I'm sorry for scaring all of you. I should've said this to you upfront. You know, after my car accident, I did self-medication before coming to Dave's mansion. I knew that man would try something so I couldn't stay at the hospital though I was going through a lot of pain. I took an overdose of a strong antidepressant and it helped after he shot me. I really didn't feel st
"I'm taking them away, Dad," Dave answered and came to his father with a bunch of papers in his hand."What do you mean? This is their home too.""It was no longer home when you brought a devil to live in it." He retorted."Stop this, Dave. He's your brother." Charles whispered but it wasn't low enough."I refuse to accept him and you'd not change my mind.!"Who are they talking about? I didn't know Dave had a brother."Here, dad. This is all your business and ownership documents. I've resigned and signed everything out of my name. Where's mum? She should come and give them to her darling son." He looked around.I didn't understand whatever that was going on. Why's Dave giving everything back? Most importantly, was I supposed to witness this?I wished my feet would drag me out but I was too curious."I have my own company to focus on anyway.”"Is this how you behave?" Kim appeared. "You get angry at your parents when we scold you a little? We raised you better.""I'm glad you're here,
LEONAI paid the driver and stepped down. I stared at Raymond's apartment and literally wept.A lot of memories are being embedded here. I still can't believe that I lost my brother. My only brother. What kind of fate am I carrying? Why's it that I always invite trouble for people wherever I go?Dave went through a lot because of me. My family is not an exception but they survived it and my brother couldn't. Life is so unfair and especially to me.Oh, Lord. Please save my soul and remove all this pain and sorrows. It's more than I can take.I'm living but my life is not worth living without my backbone.I looked for the key where he always keeps it, put it in the keyhole then turned it gently before pushing it.The room was just as I expected. Dust and cobwebs everywhere which is clearly indicating that it's been a long time since a human lived here.I opened his room and walked slowly into it.I saw a photograph of us together on his bedside table and picked it up. I stared at it an
LEONA“Dave.” I called once the door clicked open and he stepped in. I shuffled to my feet and adjusted my eyes to the darkness."Why are you avoiding me?”He came late and I had stayed up all night just to talk to him.He found the switch and turned the lights on."And who said I am?” I watched him hang his suit jacket."Then what? Why are you doing this? This is not you." I complained."What am I doing? We talk, don't we?" His brows furrowed as he took off his cufflinks leisurely."You know what I'm talking about. Stop being nonchalant."“Fine. I'm only giving you space because anytime I try to get close you tell me you want to leave. To leave me. I didn't want to hear that…"Dave I ...""No Leona. Please don't say anything." He cuts me off and walked out.So this is it. He thinks I will leave? Well, that was my initial plan but I aborted it long ago.I tried starting a conversation with him to try and clear his misconception but he wouldn't give me a chance.I regret s
LEONA"Have you seen what you've caused our family? I've always known you're a bad egg. How could you? You should've looked for a decent job like every graduate or come back home. It was out of rage I acted harshly and threw you out but you could've come back. Your father got hospitalized because of you and yet you never showed up. What kind of a daughter are you Leona? And now because of your reckless ways, you lost your brother. You caused his death, Leona. I hope you know that!" Tasha scolded me once I joined them in the guest room."Are you done, woman?" Dad asked and she rolled her eyes."Must I always remind you that if you have nothing sensible to say you should keep quiet?""You won't start again Cornelius!" She warned.I knew just then that if I don't come in, they will start fighting."Dad, Tasha is right. I fucked up..""See? She started cursing. I fear you, Leona. Especially after what we went through because of you. I know you're a murderer just like that fearful man and
