Greg came into his vast living room and flopped tiredly on the neat white sofa.

He was jet lagged as usual, even though he travelled with his private jet every now and then.

He looked around him and smiled. Yes, he was getting everything he wanted and attaining the level he had always aspired to acquire. Money, power and women were nothing to him now. But he felt incomplete. He didn't know why, but there was a void in his life that made him feel he didn't have everything yet that life had to offer.

He got up and made to go upstairs, when a knock came on the door.

He knew it was the gatekeeper so he permitted him to come in. The gateman Amos, poked his head through the slightly opened door.

"Wehdone sir."

"Yes, Amos?"

The silly gatekeeper kept staring like he was suddenly dumb and Greg sighed in frustration.

"What the hell, Amos? Why are you staring like a moron?" He snapped.

"Weren't you going to tell me something?"

"Eh? Uh, yes sir, yes sir. Sir a lady, fine lady, is waiting for you at door."

Amos said in his usual incorrect English.

Greg sighed. When was he going to be free from all these women? Both the ones he was attracted to and the ones he couldn't even bear to look at.

"Who did she say she was?"

"I no know who is she sir."

"Tell whoever she is, that I'm not in the mood for a chat."

Greg said and walked towards the stairs when a creamy chocolate voice spoke from the hallway, coming in to the room.

"I guess that's rather too late, Greg."

Greg sighed in frustration as he recognised the voice. It was the beautiful Sophia, daughter of an oil magnate.

"Anyways, I'll pardon you for that, baby boy, because I'm sure you didn't know it was I."

Greg turned to her.

"Well, unfortunately for you, Sophia," He said drily. "I am not in the mood to entertain visitors, including you."

Sophia gasped in shock.

"What? Greg! Did you just call me a visitor?"

Greg sighed again as he heard the shakiness in her voice. This usually happened when he had made her very sad. He turned to her and discovered that he was right. She was already sulking.

He reluctantly went over to her and placed his hands on her well shaped shoulders.

"Sophia, Sophia, I didn't mean it like that."

He said without really meaning it.

"I just meant that I wanted to rest, because I feel tired and dizzy."

Her eyes were on the floor and her mouth was formed in a sulky pout. He sighed again and placed a light kiss on her pouty mouth and the pretty, sulky face suddenly became sensual and seductive again.

"But you know I can always help you relax whenever you need to."

She purred seductively, caressing his chest and he rolled his eyes.

"I don't have time for this, Sophia." He said to her in annoyance as he pushed her wandering hands away. "I need a good nap and no disturbance."

"But Greg... "

"Sophia let me be."

He said sternly and started going upstairs then stopped halfway.

"But you can make yourself comfortable. And Amos, I do not want to be disturbed."

He disappeared into the upper hallway.

"Yes sor!" Amos exclaimed, saluted and then turned to Sophia who eyed him evilly. Then in anger, she left the house, disgraced. Amos followed suit in amusement.

    Laura slowly raised her head and looked at the clock on the wall, it was 12am in the morning. She sighed and wondered when the day would break. She was so weak because she hadn't eaten anything for almost three days. She weakly got up from the floor and climbed onto her bed, using the pillows as comfort. Tears filled her eyes for the umpteenth time. She was used to the maltreatment but it still hurt each time she was treated badly. With a weak heart and body, she prayed that dawn would arrive quickly. ❤❤❤Greg couldn't sleep.He kept turning and tossing, then finally got up to take another shower. When he was done, a knock came on his bedroom door. He wondered who was disturbing him at that time of the morning.

    Laura rummaged through her wardrobe searching for a good gown she could wear to her father's formal birthday party. He had arrived the previous night and everyone had been busy since his arrival, so she managed to make out little time to arrange the things she would wear. She had to look her best tonight so as not to embarrass her father, but she only had few clothes to choose from and she settled for a blue long gown ☝🏻 that her father had bought for her some months back. It was the most expensive thing in her wardrobe so she settled for it. Not that she had much choices, for it had been a long time since she got herself some new clothes. Most of the allowances given to her by her father were spent on some school stuffs, as well as transportation since she didn't have a car. Through the influence of her stepmother, her father had bought a car for her elder stepsister Samantha and had later gotten another one for both her and Mirabel to use since they were in the same faculty in

    Laura came back downstairs and was on her way to welcome a familiar guest when a strong hand gently held her elbow. She turned to see a handsome face smiling down at her. "Hi beautiful." The man said. "Hi." She hesitantly replied. "Laura, right?" He asked. "Yes," She replied. "How did you know my name?"He smiled in amusement. "I am very good at guessing the names of beautiful women like you."Laura rolled her eyes."Especially one that has caught my attention." "Oh" was all she could manage to say. "I'm Ronald Daniels," He introduced, letting out his hand for a handshake. "But you can call me Ron.""Well, you already know my name."Laura said, receiving his hand and he brought her hand to his lips and kissed it. Her mind wandered to exactly what had happened earlier with the other hunk. "You are beautiful.""Thank you.""I've never seen you around before." He said. "Especially in these parties."Laura shrugged her pretty shoulders. "You can't see everyone.""Not when the woman

    Laura felt a light touch on her lower back and turned to see who it was. She found herself looking up at dark, piercing eyes in a strong, tanned and handsome face then stiffened when she recognised him. "Sorry I took long in getting the drink my dear, here you go." Greg smiled charmingly at her confused face as he gave her the drink, with a glint in his eyes that hypnotized her into doing what he wanted. "Uh, thanks...for the drink." She replied, collecting the glass from him but didn't drink the content. "Oh, you have company," he commented, finally acknowledging Ronald's presence. "How's your life, Daniels?""I'm always good, as you know." Ronald replied with a smirk. "And how's yours, Williams?""Never better." Greg answered drily and turned to face a confused Laura. He offered her an arm which she automatically accepted and he smiled triumphantly when Ronald scowled. "Have a good night, Daniels." He said and left immediately with Laura. Ronald's scowl deepened. How dare he?

    It had been more than a month since Chief West's birthday party. More than a month since he last saw his curvy beauty. He wondered if he had affected her that night. He wondered if she thought of him the way he thought of her. He knew he was rich and attractive and could get any woman he wanted, but from the look of things, he knew that getting this particular girl would require more work than with other women he had had. Though she seemed to like him that night but he wasn't sure because he didn't get to spend much time with her, thanks to her stepmother and sisters. He paused. But what did he really want from her? To have a one night stand with her, get her out of his system and forget about her? Or to keep her for a little while longer than he kept the other women he had had. He didn't know. All he knew was that he wanted her and wouldn't stop until he claimed that elegant body. He snapped out of his thoughts at the sound of the intercom. "Sir, should I bring over the files f

    "You won't do that!" She exclaimed in horror, not believing what she just heard. "Watch me." He took a step toward her and she froze, realizing he was serious, then automatically took a step backward. "Alright, alright!" She exclaimed breathlessly and he smiled in triumph and went over to the other side of the car, opening the door for her. "But this is kidnapping!""Whatever you call it." He said in a bored tone. She reluctantly went into the car and crossed her hands over her chest. She scoffed. He was more annoying than she thought. He went back to the other side, entered the car and closed the door, then zoomed off. The close confines of the car giving a kind of intimacy that Laura felt uncomfortable in. "Will you slow down a little?" She cried when he swerved the car too harshly. "Am not ready to die yet."He chuckled, a husky, nice and relaxing sound. "But you want to go to heaven.""Of course I want to go to heaven."She answered like a child earning another amused

    "Hello Lizzy." "Lau!" Elizabeth Michaels' cheerful high pitched voice came on the line. "Don't tell me you're still awake at this hour or did I wake you up?" Lizzy, as she was called for short, was her best friend. Her only friend in fact. They met in their first year at the university and just like Laura, she was also from a rich family. Her father owned hotels and her mother was a lawyer, while her elder brother assisted their father in controlling the family business. She was studying the same course with Laura in school and was the only one that stood up for Laura against her step family and bullies, the girl could use her mouth to put someone in their place and on many occasions, she had been Laura's hero and was fiercely protective of her. "Not...really." Laura answered softly trying not to sniff and Lizzy chuckled. "That's a lie. From the dullness of your voice, I can tell that I was the one that woke you up. Sorry, couldn't sleep, so I decided to disturb a few people." L

    "Hello my sweet coconut." A familiar husky voice came on the line and Laura gasped. "G-Greg?"Laura immediately felt Lizzy's excited gaze on her as she listened with ardour with her hand tucked beneath her jaw. "The very one, baby." Greg replied, his voice laced with amusement. "H-how did you get my number?"Laura asked. "I have my ways darling, how are you?""I'm...fine?" She voiced out, still shocked that he called her. He chuckled. "You're not sure if you are?""I'm fine...fine thank you.""I promised to call you the next day.""Why tonight then?" She asked regaining her composure. "This is almost 1am, Miss. I made that promise yesterday." He replied triumphantly and she said nothing, in embarrassment. "And I didn't expect you'd be up at this hour. Or did my call wake you from your beauty sleep?"She rolled her eyes. First Lizzy, now Greg. "No I am not sleeping yet." She replied quietly. "Mm, someone is missing me."Greg purred. "What? No way! There's nothing there to miss

    She placed her hand on her protruded tummy and smiled as she watched her husband and son, their heads bent in concentration and with cute matching frowns on their foreheads as they went through the book before them. They were so similar, both in appearance and in character. She sighed in contentment.It had been a very blissful three years. Too blissful that she found it terrifying. It all seemed too good to be true at the initial stage but when she thought about everything she had gone through, she realized that she deserved every happiness that came to her.

    "No way!" Celina boomed pacing up and down the living room."It is what it is, mother."Samantha said tearfully as she sat on the couch with a mug of tea in her hands, legs tucked in. "I will not allow this to happen!""It already has!" Samantha snapped in annoyance. "Greg already knows that Sydney is not his son and asides that, I believe he has regained his memory. It's over mum.""No it's not!" Celina said stubbornly. "This can't be over, not after everything we did to get you to that position.""Mum you don't understand," Samantha said wearily.

    Laura slid out of his suddenly limp embrace and excused herself, not missing the frown of confusion, curiosity and dread on his face.She went into the bedroom and to Cameron's cot and realized he was only having a bad dream. After calming him down and putting him to sleep again, she returned to the sitting room.He was standing with his back to her staring at a painting. His stance oozed power and sexual appeal and she mentally slapped herself for harboring immoral thoughts."That was a baby, wasn't it?" He asked in a murmur."Yes, obviously." She replied curtly."Whose child is it?" He asked, turning to face her."None of your business." She said nonchalantly.He took a dangerous step towards her. "Laura. Whose. Child. Was that?"She glared at him for seconds then rolled her eyes."Well since you're been insistent, he's my child."Time stood still as he froze at her announcement. Then he vaguely remembered that she did have a son. He had found out when he went through her profile

He shook his head as he blamed the accident and loss of his memory for his current predicament.But most importantly.

    Laura looked at Dexter with a small loving smile as he waited for an answer, though her mind was muddled and her heart was beating erratically. She sighed.She was tired. Tired of fighting for a lost cause. Who was she deceiving? Greg was lost to her forever. She could never get him back. She didn't even know whether she still wanted him after everything he had done to her. She had been patient. For over a year she had been hoping he would one day come to remember her for who she really was and what she had once meant to him. But all proved abortive and the worst of it all was the sack letter she had received from him after a night of intense lovemaking and worse still, the second dreaded letter that tore at her heart whenever she thought of it.The accident had reborn him into a beast.Anger at him beclouded her heart and she discovered there was no soft spot for him in her heart any longer.He was her son's father, yes.

    As early as five in the morning, he woke up. He blinked his eyes as he tried to get them adjusted to the little light coming in from the moon through the window. Then he felt softness pressed warmly against him and he looked down to behold her calm sleeping glorious face illuminated by the morning moonlight and everything that had happened the previous night and the early hours of the morning came rushing into his head.They had had sex. No. The better word was, they had made love. He had tried to take it as just casual sex during the deed, but the wave of emotions and passion that flowed between them was so intense that it couldn't be described as just casual sex. If felt so natural. So right. He didn't feel guilty which made him wonder why. No matter how hard he forced himself to feel guilty, something kept telling him that he hadn't done anything wrong.He looked at her again. She was so beautiful.

He said as he collected the glass from her, making sure to avoid any contact with her. He didn't want want to take any risk."You're welcome Mr Williams."
