Angel had agreed to take me to the dungeon despite being unwilling to do it at first but I had insisted and he had to succumb to my wish. The door creacked open and I stepped in right after Angel. This place was creepy and I couldn't believe I had been made to sleep and endure torture for days. I get that he couldn't hurt me directly during that time and asked his Hit girl to do it.Monica, she was cruel and that was just too cruel of Angel. I used to be so scared in the darkness adding to the pain of that ladies whip. Angel had remained utterly silent allowing me to relive my moments here in my head. I felt sorry for all I had been put through. It got me thinking if Angel actually knew how deep my pain was. I was punished unjustly. I thought all would be fine once I forgave but things like this just reminded me of the pain and I had to fight the emotions that were coming afresh in me. I took a deep sigh as I had concluded on what to do to help me heal from this moment."Can you
It was the day of the operation, Cole and Angel had agreed on how to group their men for the operation. Angel had decided to leave Knight behind, his reason was that in case anything went wrong, he didn't want Cassandra to lose the two men she loved the most. He would try his best to stay alive for Thea and as for Camila, he kept Caspian in charge of getting Natalia from Manuel's place at the appointed time. The men did not expect such decision from Angel but he couldn't protect all of them and he didn't want to take any chances. He would never forgive himself should anything happen to any of them and he had to give the news to their lovers. Some of Angel's and Cole's men were stationed at an intersection where sparrow had told Manuel to keep his own men so that the shipment could begin. Sparrow wouldn't let Manuel know what warehouse or building he kept Angel's goods. He was always so careful that Manual never suceeded even when he tried to trace them. While in position, Angel recei
"Boss....." Mike spoke for the first time since the call. "What?" "You got several calls from Lola before we got here." "It has nothing to do with this." He quickly dismissed. He knew that Lola was only calling because she was worried and wanted to hear his voice one more time before they left for the operation. He wanted Thea's voice to be the last so he didn't bother picking or reading her text. "What are you suggesting?" Angel asked even though he was getting some ideas as well. "What if Lola had some information for you. She called several times." Angel blinked, worry clading his face. He had been too absorbed with the idea that Lola was all about her feelings for him that he didn't think outside the box. "We should call the mansion... Now!" He yelled when Mike hesitated. Manuel's men were still waiting for a contrary instruction and Angel was the one to give it. They reached out to Knight and the moment he picked up 'Angel' was the first thing Knight called. He sounded
"What's going on? Sparrow isn't here." Jack the DEA agent working with us spoke over the phone. " I guess we were tricked again." "What do you want now? Do we go after your goods or go after Sparrow's men?" "Wait...." He said, studying the place for a while. He noticed some strange movements. Another car pulled over and one of the men on suit entered. The car didn't move for a while then the door opened again after some minutes. The man in suit stepped out and was ushered into another Car. Who did he just meet? Angel asked within him. His hunch told him two things. He was either a middle man and had just handed the deal of business to the man in the car or the man in the car was sparrow. There was one last option though. It could be none. "Boss... Jack wants to know what we should do." Mike said but Angel was really hesitant. What game was sparrow playing? "What's the nearest club here?" Angel asked suddenly. "You think he's there?" "Both Sparrow and the original buyer co
Lupo was right and Lola was saving the day. He really owed her one. Denzell had tried to escape with sparrow but the front was blocked as well as the back. Angel had gotten out of the car, clocking his gun, as well as Mike and the DEA officers following behind him. This was one of those nights were he got his hands stained with blood. The shooting went on for a while and it wasn't so easy because the men that protected sparrow were as much as the men that came with Angel. Angel had called for back up and continued to focus on finding sparrow where he was.A man had just fallen before him after he shot him down and good heavens! Today was probably the day he got to get things over with and be at peace because just before him, was a lonely dog away from it's protectors.Right before him was his greatest rival, Sparrow. His face was splattered with the blood of others. He was butts down while Angel towered above him."Angel...." Sparrow called, thanks to the headlights, he was able to
TheaThe night of the operation never left us with clarity, there were loopholes but then all we could have was hope. Natalia had gone missing that day, Caspian had arrived at Manuel's place only to find out that Natalia had stepped out for a while. The camera in the house had shown her leaving but without any properties. After the night was over it was clear that Natalia had played wise and ran away without leaving a trace. Angel had tried to locate her but it was in vain. It shouldn't have been a hard thing to do except someone powerful was protecting her but then it couldn't be Sparrow. Even if he had survived that night he was in no position to look after her. Now that things were this way, Natalia wasn't much of a threat to us. Seeing the way the night had turned out, she would be trying to stay lay low than jumping to another mafia lord. I woke up in bed, although my eyes were still closed, my hands reach out to Angel's side of the bed in search for him despite knowing it wou
TheaAngel goes to his office later in the day and takes me along with him. He was sitting on his office chair while I sat on his laps as he worked. I felt small being wrapped within his space but it was such an enjoyable feeling being held by him."I wanted to show you something." He said displaying a list on the screen."The companies we own shares in." He said and I got really interested. I had thought their only business was doing drugs."I don't know much about business.""I can teach you." He said dropping a kiss on my shoulder. Angel put me through his investments and I was left shocked by just how much money he had invested. "Angel.... I think you're way too rich than I can imagine." I said still feeling shocked but he chuckles. "You're right pretty girl." He says rubbing my chin with his thumb, his eyes melts mine when he stares for too long and I get the chill from being shy. "You're so cute when you act shy." He said eying me seductively which makes me blush hard. A thou
Camila laughs still looking at me with curiosity. "Come on Thea, what is it? That look wasn't just nothing." "You've been using pills right?" Camila paused then laughed in disbelieve."Are you suggesting I'm pregnant right now?" "You never know.""I use pills.""Even on your free period?" I countered and she remained quiet for a moment. I could tell that she was thinking about it. "Uhh... We... Did." She said sounding unsure."Camila?" She shakes her head as if to shake out the thoughts that were swarming into it. "Caspian and I were not... I mean sometimes, I think we didn't use pills and I wasn't sure if he pulled out." "Camila?" "What? It was just this one time before we went to the penthouse. I did take pills but it was a little late." She is as confused as fuck! "I really don't know Thea....it was just that one time and the pills does delay my period sometimes." She said looking nervous. "Sounds familiar. I thought the same too when I got pregnant with Angel's baby." Cami
Chapter 4 I thought catching my husband making love to my bestfriend was the cruelest sight I could ever see but the pain that came with him making love to her in my helplessness and going ahead to propose was out of this world. I had no idea how I was able to survive but Miguel and Nicole were not done with me. A week after Miguel had proposed, he made arrangements for me to be transfered to a care givers home where he paid for my treatments and care. Back then, I had wondered how he intended to get married while he was still legally married to me but one day, he returned with a court document that permitted him to file for a divorce without involving the second party. He had knelt in front of me that day, explaining how he needed to move on with his life. He apologized for everything he had done and went on to be a bastard by saying he would have wanted me to do the same if he were in my shoes. He had no idea what it meant to be in my shoes. I had been here for a month now, no
Chapter 3 "It hurts." I could hear my voice echo in my head. My head hurt. I could feel a weight in my eyes as I struggled to pull them open, when I finally did, what I saw were blurred images, I could hardly make out the meaning only the image before me. I tried to move something else, my hand maybe but I had no feelings there. I tried to talk but I couldn't find my voice then I heard someone speak. I listened carefully and could finally make out who the sound belonged to. A familiar pain struck me, one that I desperately wished would seize and never return. It was the pain from betrayal. The cruelest form of it. "I think Racheal has suffered enough Miguel, It's time for us to let her go." What was that witch talking about? I yelled within me, recognizing the female's voice to be no other than Nicole, my best... I swore at myself for almost giving her the title. So I meant, my ex-bestfriend. "I know it's hard to pull out your wife from life support but it's the best thing you c
Chapter 2 Racheal "Miguel! Nicole!" I cried out their names. My voice almost got lost with those two words as the weight of my heartache was carried in my voice. Tears spilled uncontrollably from my eyes. I was still praying that I was caught up in a vivid dream. As if catching them cheating wasn't enough, I saw Nicole open her eyes to meet my gaze, shock enveloped her but then her eyes went dreamy instantly as my husband was still ramming his way through her. "M-miguel... Your wife." She managed to stutter but Miguel wasn't stopping. He made love to her like a wild beast breaking what was left of my heart. " Miguel...." Nicole called again to warn him but he didn't stop. "I can't stop, I'm about ahhh!" He made one last deep thrust into her releasing a deep groan as well. I gasped, panting for air as I couldn't bear the sight any longer. I clutched on the ground hitting my chest as if to stop the pain. It was after Miguel had released inside Nicole did he seem to realize my pr
DIVORCED! MARRIED HIS RIVAL Chapter 1 Racheal Who would have thought that an innocent surprise to my husband would turn into my worst nightmare? It was two days to my wedding anniversary with Miguel Elliot, my husband and highschool sweetheart. We had been in love for seven years and were married for a year now. He was my everything, I trusted him more than I trusted anyone. Even though he had promised to be back before our anniversary, I was too impatient to wait so I decided to visit him in the next town where he had a business meeting. I hoped he liked my surprise. "Mrs Elliot, I'm sorry but you can't go in." Maya, his personal assistant said, I could see the way her hands trembled and the way her entire body fidgeted when she spoke. At first I understood her, she was just doing her job but when she kept on insisting that I couldn't see my husband I became annoyed. "Are you sure you know who I am?" "Of course I do, you're Mrs. Elliot but I'm really sorry. My boss instruc
Epilogue Thea was five months into her pregnancy, and as agreed by her and Angel, they were going to do a gender reveal with the entire family. Decorations had been set up for the day, and they decided to use blue and pink as the general color theme, representing the male and female gender.Angel and Thea weren't the only ones with preferences for their child's sex. While Thea wanted a boy who looked like Angel, Angel wanted a girl who looked like her. Similarly, Camila and Caspian wanted a boy so he could be Casimir's age and play with him, while Cassandra and Knight wanted a girl. Cassie wanted a girl she could twin with in dresses, play with makeup, and do other fun things. Knight wanted the same because they already had a boy, and it would be balanced to have a princess too.Florentine kept her preference to herself; one could say she simply wanted another baby in the mansion, regardless of gender.While Louisa and Scott also wanted a grandkid, it did
The joy Angel and I felt when we got the news of our pregnancy was out of this world. We had decided to shift our honeymoon to three months later, so that we could truly savor each other during that time.Before we left for our honeymoon, we had a general gathering with everyone and announced that we were expecting a baby. We had asked Florentine to keep it a secret until that very moment. The entire house erupted with excitement. I had not expected such an intense reaction from everyone. They instantly started debating what gender they wanted, each with their own personal reasons.I thought surprising everyone was all the surprises I had to give until we went for our honeymoon, but Angel had something for me too.Angel revealed to me his new tech company building. I had no idea he had launched an app that had been running for the past four years. I was so proud of him but had questions."Why did he do drugs if he had all this?" I asked. I also wanted to know if he funded all that thr
TheaI was throwing up for the fourth time since four in the morning. I was exhausted, and it was evident through the bags that formed under my eyes. I hated the way I felt. This had started two days ago, but I hadn't thought much of it, remembering that I'd tasted something my belly rejected the smell of earlier. I still felt irritated by the food and thought it had to be the reason, but after throwing up at night and then four times into the morning, it was getting suspicious.Angel hadn't slept at all last night; he'd been there for me, making sure my situation didn't get worse. He'd tried to convince me to let him call Florentine over, but I wouldn't let him.We even missed breakfast, and Florentine had to check on us that morning. That was when we told her about my symptoms. Florentine twisted her lips trying not to smile, she seemed amused. We knew what she was suspecting, but she wouldn't say and only asked us to drop by at the clinic so she could conduct some tests.The oth
AngelAfter our wedding, Thea and I didn't go to our reception immediately, we had agreed to go see my mum like we did after our engagement. To show her that we were finally married, so we drove over to the hospital from the church. Driving to the hospital, I felt emotional but it wasn't sadness that my mum was vegetative and couldn't be with us in our happiest day, It was gladness that I could proudly tell her that I got my girl. "Let's go see mum." I had told Thea and she excitedly nodded, showing off her ring. Once we got to the hospital, I weaved my hand into Thea's hand and took her to mum's room. We sat before her, placing our hands above hers. "Mum...." I called and felt tears sting my eyes. I tried to laugh it off but it kept spilling. I had never cried this much in a day in my entire life and Thea was mostly the reason. "Go on my love. You can do this. I'm sure mum wants to hear." Thea encouraged me and I nodded finding strength in her support. "Oh God! I wish she was p
AngelThe moment I saw Thea step into the church, my entire world froze, time stopped like it never did before. I could hear myself gasp so clearly, the way my heart raced, I could even swear that I heard the way my blood flowed through my veins. That was how quiet the world around me went so that I could concentrate on what matters, on the one person that mattered the most....Thea. She was otherworldly, she was the prettiest human on earth. No one, I meant absolutely no one could compare, no one could beat her beauty in my eyes. Her soul was the purest and her love was the purest form of love I had experienced in a human. She had come into my life and completely captivated me, without my permission, without holding back at how much love she could make me feel for her. She was the essence in my existence. She was everything to me. I was the luckiest man on earth to have her standing before me, confessing her love to love me despite everything. I was the luckiest to have her be my
