The way are body was submitting to me was clearly visible and my words were having effect on her.Its nine days since the doctor asked me to make sure she stay away from cold and I did as told. Now, she need to pay me back for being patient enough for nine days with out interrupting her feelings and emotions.Hmm, I think I have some thing better in store for her first. Let's see how long she will last though.________"Remember your position with me?" I smirked as I moved closer to her. I could see fear written all over her as she retreat her steps too."Please..." She whimpered, fighti
[49] ||Arlington Arlington||I managed to get to the bathroom my room on my own, tears falling freely from my eyes. I changed my clothes and had a thorough bath even though I'm still in pa in.My eyes sting badly from excesses crying and my heart won't stop aching in hatred against Hardie as it mixed with pa in.*******Hours rolled into days and days to weeks. Its been two weeks and more since I've been trapped here with that de*vil who claimed to be human. Every night, he find pleasure in molesting and ruining me but I'm never used to it. Who get used to pain, heartbreak and tor ture anyways?Absolutely no one, one a psycho does and I'm no psycho.I missed my mom and Jamel but I have no means to communicate with them and Hardie's phone is never in sight. I'm alone but trapped with a de*vil on an island at the middle of no where.I just hope I survive this any time soon... ||Jamel Grayson||Since three weeks now, I've lost track of Hardie and Arlington. Mom won
[50] ||Gareth Sebastian||"Ahh, Gareth...""Every thing that was happening to you lately about the deal was all my plan, Jamel. I came up with the fake deal so I could get all of Hardie's wealth under your shadow and maybe a little of yours too." I paused as I watch his shock expression."I abducted Arlington and trapped her here accusing Hardie of it, I know you will go wild and wants a revenge on Hardie. You knowing about Hardie's dying step sister was among my plan and I purposely let Jade snitch you out to Hardie. But now it seems the game isn't going as planned any more as Hardie appears to be more cunning than I thought. If I can't get any thing from Hardie, I can get all of yours. Since I know a lot of deals about you. Jade...?"Jade brought out Jamel's Will, I wrote myself and an InkPad. "Here, sign this yourself or I do it the hard way.""No..." His closed his eyes tightly in pains.Seeing that he isn't ready to comply, I forcefully dip his thumb in the ink and sig
[51] ||Lincoln Shire||The guy was actually a d*mn doctor, he runs the biggest hospital in states. I visited him in his office though wearing a fake face. I don't want to get easily recognized, just so if any goes the other way.Not everyone cooperate easily, though.*"So, who was the guy you were with the older day?" I asked softly, trying to be friendly with him."Excuse me, who are you?" The doctor eyed me suspiciously. "Do I know you?""Of course you don't and its better you don't." I smirk at him."What did you want from me?" He demanded."Nothing much though..." I shrug my shoulders. "I'll be asking you some few and I want you to give me honest answers.""And if I don't, huh...?!""Sorry, then you want it the hard way..." I sneered as I brought out the pocket gun I'm with. "You still won't give me honest answers?""I was just joking with my statement, you can keep it back." He laugh nervously."Good..." I commended. "So back to my first question, you were in a club hous
[52] ||Hardie Morrison||I know better than leaving Arlington all alone to herself and I don't seems to trust her with Charlotte either.We sat patiently in the tinted car, waiting for Gareth to take his move. Today, Gareth would be flying out of States for some reasons best known to him.After an hour of waiting, his car moved out of his building and hit the road.Overtaking Gareth's car was not really a problem as mine blocked his. He wanted to reverse in a haste but was also blocked from behind, I planned all of this already.I hopped down from his car, likewise Gareth too."Its really nice to meet you again after many months, Mr Sebastian." I smirked as i sat on my car's bonnet with my arms folded across my chest.He look a bit shocked for few seconds but quickly masked it up with a snort. "Why all of these, huh?""Forget these first." I waved his question off. "Where are you going in such a hurry? Are you rushing out of States? Maybe for something very urgent?" I know for s
[53] ||Arlington Arlington|| Hardie asked to follow Lincoln and I to my mom's home, my home. I sigh in pa*ins as I slid to the back seat.This seems too hard to digest at a go! Jamel is dead and was k*lled by his suppose best friend. Now I know, I've always h*ted Gareth and his guts.I hate seeing his face that every one considered to be pretty, I hate his presence and everything about him but I never for once wish him dead. And he does wish my brother death?The ride was long as awkward silence hung in the air. Reminiscing over the past few months, I realized a thing, every thing happened in a flash. So fast, that they wasn 't enough time to digest it all.Lincoln stopped the car abruptly as he got to the front of my mom's apartment, I quickly hopped Down from the car."Hey, can I come with you to see your mom? Maybe I can come up with some good explanations?" Hardie asked. For the first time since weeks, he was using a calm and concerned voice but..."Oh, please!" I huffed
[54] ||Arling Arlington||Yesterday was Jamel's Wake keep. Well, a lot if people attended and mom was really uncomfortable with it but there's nothing she can do to change the fact that her only soon is kind of popular?Yeah, its been two weeks since the whole drama happened and every thing has gone back to normal. Maybe, maybe not?Well, it doesn't really matter since no one is talking about the whole incident any more. Its really nice pretending none of these happens in the first place, shutting Hardie's thought off me.Uh-huh! Today is a new day, Monday precisely and I'll be resuming work after three days off, same as mom.She is all good now but her weight still lag behind, but I guess she'll be okay and bounce back to normal in no time. Good one, huh? Of course, it is!I quickly dress up and had a quick breakfast but as usual mom was long gone before I could finish up with my daily routine.I stopped a cab and arrived early at work. Yeah, Jesse is here already."Hey, good m
[55]||Arling Arlington||"What else am I suppose to plan on doing?" I huffed. "I'm getting rid of it...""You what...?" Jesse was shocked, her face says it all. "You can't possibly do that.""I can't keep a child with out a father, I just can't." Tears were at their verge of trickling down my face."But you said its Hardie's, right?" Jesses asked, wearing a confused look. "How then is the unborn child with out a father?""You can't understand the mess I'm in, Jess. I don't wan' have any thing in common with him, keeping the baby will only remind me of him." I cried out, my heart was shattering inside me. "That guy was suppose to be my past, okay?""Okay, I'm confused here..." Jesse said with her brows knotted.I ignored her and turned to the doctor. "Please, I need to get rid of this pregnancy. You are a doctor and a professional at that, you are suppose to understand me better. Right?" I said, desperation laced in my voice.I can't believe I'm saying all of this but do I have a choi
[84]The sun dipped below the horizon as the fiery colours infused the sky above the sky above them, painting the perfect backdrop for the end of an era. As the crimson hues bled into the night, Lincoln couldn't help but admire the scene from the rooftop terrace if Hardie's lavish home.The cool breeze brush past them, bringing forth a scene of melancholy that mirrored the thoughts racing through Lincoln's mind. It was hard to believe that after all the hardship they had faced together, their journey was slowly screeching into a halt.Hardie, in his usual assertive manner, told Lincoln that he did not plan of letting him go anytime soon. Despite anticipation, the words slammed into Lincoln's chest like a brick wall, causing him to struggle for breath.Although, Lincoln had mentally prepared for such a confrontation, the reality was far more difficult to accept. Over the years, the two had become intertwined in a complex net of loyalty and betrayal, blurring the lines of their allianc
[83]"Isn't she the same with her?" I heard her asked all of a sudden, her voice was laced with outmost surprise or maybe shock.I raised my head up to the television's screen, trying to figure out what she was talking about. It was Ms. Roselle, that was her name, Hardie's mom. Why is she on the media all of a sudden? "She's the one, right?" She asked again, this time turning to me. "This is Hardie's mother." "Yeah." I nod in agreement, drawling my words. "I'm sure she is the one, she looks like her and the name too." "Why is she on the screen then?" Charlotte furthered, staring questioningly at me. I frowned at her question, we are both in the same room and she is the one who had informed me about this yet, she is asking me such a question? She's seriously unbelievable! "Were you not the one who just told me about it?" I return her question back to her. "And we are yet to listen to what she might have done." "You are right." She said sounding defeated but I did not really care.
[82] ||•Lincoln Shire•||"Welcome..." The hotel receptionist uttered, wearing a delightful expression as she smiled warmly at us.I'm not the type that smiles but I was kind enough to reciprocate it. Charlotte, on the other hand, just gave her a slight nod with a blank expression on her face. It's obvious that she's too tired for all of this, every thing about her tell it all."Two VIP..." I simply stated but the stare on her face tells otherwise, I need her not to say much before I understand her expression. "We'll just hop for any available rooms left, okay. As far as it's as comfortable as a home, we have no choice to it."She shook her head with an apologetic look on her face. "I'm sorry, Sir..." She muttered, avoiding eye contact with Charlotte and I. "It's just a room left, all other rooms are occupied for the night."Mere looking at Charlotte, she was not comfortable with herself as she scrunched her face tightly in displeasure. "Why...?" She requested with indifference
[81] ||•Lincoln Shire•||The day has been kind of hectic for Charlotte and I, tailing and spying on other lords just to get want we want from them.Well, as usual, Charlotte was used as the bait to get to them. I must commend how much she has done in the nick of time.She made every thing much easier for me since they are things I can do and places I can't penetrate as a male, yeah .Retiring for the day, we decided to lodge the night in one of the suites around till the next day.I would have vouch for a clubhouse instead because there, I would surely meet with new lords but Charlotte had insisted we get a proper night sleep instead.Well, I have no other choice to obliging. We will just find a suitable suite for us after we are done with our drinks. •••"I think I need a break after this." Charlotte muttered before chugging down her last cup of wine. "This is becoming much more challenging than it ever was.""What break —?" I asked with my brows raised in questioni
[80] ||Hardie Morrison||I speed up and in no time, we arrived at the park, the same park I brought her to couple of months ago. It was just few weeks after we met. Arlington was a little bit surprised, well, it reflected on her face."I guess I did not see this coming..." She countered with a soft chuckle after. "Why did you bring us here?"I ignored her question and helped her undo her seat belt. "Come on." I said instead and hopped down from the car.She hopped down immediately after I did before I was able to turn around. "I can always help myself with the door, you should stop worrying over little things." She said as she shut the car's door behind her."Little things also matters, Arling." I told her in reply and hold her hand, and intertwined it with mine. "What did you want?" "I want… that." She pointed at the cotton candy not to far from us, wearing a wide smile on her face. The smile of hers that I did not want to miss, not now or ever.I’ve done so much wrong
[79] ||Hardie Morrison||"Ms. Roselle is coming home with us." Arling suddenly announced which made Hardie stopped in his track."What...?!" I blurted out, almost choking on my own breathe. " think I heard wrong, yeah. What did you say?""What did I say?" She repeated my question with her brows deeply creased. "I said; Ms. Roselle would be coming with us, did I say some thing awful?"These days, ever since this fóxy human suddenly introduced herself to you, I see you enjoy getting on my nerves...” those were the words I wanted to reply her with but said some thing else instead.I know and I'm sure of it, this fóxy human is trying to cause a rift between Arlington and I the same way she did to Amelia and other people too.But then, I would never give in to such cheap plan she drafted. I'll just have to pretend I never heard Arling speaks about her or made mention of her name."Aren’t you tired of staying here?" I asked, diverting the topic else where. "You’ve been in the ho
[78] ||Ms. Roselle||There are so many things to regret but I don't think I have a reason to regret any of them, except of course, if I lose access to them.Yeah! That would be my only regret!How do I regret my source of income and wealth? Because I smug in drugs? Or because I'm an old stripper and a s3x worker? Probably because I rob dignitaries off their wealth?I've done and indulged myself in so many shits and dirty works and I'm glad I did, if not, how do I gather so much wealth in the nick of time?But of course, I do have one regret! It's hurts me and I'm suppose it's never too late to rectify it!No taming Hardie when I have the chance to was my only regret! I couldn't hold in the pain I felt seeing him succeed in his own games and outsmarting other drug lords in the game.Most time, I do wonder how he was able to attain such height at a very young age. He used to be the gentle type who barely talks or socialize himself with others, how did he turn out to be the b
[77] ||Hardie Morrison||It was hard to convince Arlington about the babies being alive, she felt we were lying about them to have want her to go home with out thinking of seeing the babies.For this, I have to asked the doctor if it was okay and safe to visit just for the air to be clear and he gladly permits with out blinking an eyelid about it."They are much stronger than they were in the last few days and out of danger too." He told me. "They are recovering faster already, it safe to visit them."Due to the babies being conceived earlier than they were supposed, one of them was too weak and barely look like she was going to survive as of when they were birthed.The impact from Arlington's fall made her weak and having almost near de@th experience. Thankfully, she turned out to be a strong survivor and did not d¡e and the other baby was safe too.I couldn't just imagine how hard it will be on Arlington to hear about one of the babies not surviving. She will definitel
[76] ||Hardie Morrison||The weather temperature today was cold but not that very cold. That doesn't matter, what matters is Arlington would be discharged any time from now since I already signed documents for her to be discharged."Please, keep her under close watch and make sure she doesn't go under pressure. She should be stress free too and nothing should threaten her health status too." The doctor advised as he scribbled down things on a pad. "She is still prone to shock and I'm sure you won't want her to go in to coma again.""Why will I? I won't be foolish to repeat such mistake again." I muttered in response. I don't want her mom to take her far away from me, I won't be able to stand the pain that would come after it."Here are the drugs she will be using..." The doctor handed the scribbled piece for me, not after explaining each benefit of the scribbled drugs and how she's suppose to use them."When is she gon' be discharged?" Min hung was the first to asked immediat
