Thea"He's going to die because of you." Those words inflicted horror within me. I stared at the man before me who had a dangerous smirk plastered across his face. He said it and not a glint of uncertainty was detected."How dare you say that?""So casually? Hmm...." He scoffed and adjusted his eye pad."Well gorgeous, I dare to say it because I mean it." I looked at my folded fist that was vibrating in anger. I opened it slowly to see the note which he had stuffed in my hand. Those were numbers written on it.He tilted his head looking at me curiously obviously wondering if I was considering his offer."You do want to be free badly don't you?""Of course but never to be with someone like you and if you think threatening Angel's life would make me change my mind you deceive yourself." I said my breath getting deeper. He chuckled and took a step towards me."I told you already Thea, I'll have you either way. Which way is left to you. Come willingly to me or I'll kill him just to have
TheaI've been tagged a whore, a cheat, an addict, shameless and everything in-between but at this very moment I only cared about what the man I loved very dearly would see me as.I betrayed him for the third time on the very night I confessed my souls yearning to him. The very night I told him I'd go through the good and the bad with him, the very night I gave myself completely to him. It just had to be that very night.I battled with my conscience every second since I escaped and the guilt that the attack that night was because of me. I cried my eyes out not knowing what situation Angel could be in now, did he get surgery? Was he okay? Did he hate me? Questions kept tormenting my mind. My peace was gone and I was living in fear and overwhelming worry."Coffee?" A hand passed a cup to me and the figure of a man whom I recognized all too well sat across me. I rubbed my shoulder feeling chill even though it was warm here."Thank you " I said accepting it. I take a sip and peek at t
TheaIt was my eight day of working at the bar and surprisingly I had made more money than I estimated from the tips I got. Men were smitten by me and I could see it clearly upset Mariam.It was only a matter of time before she aired her true feelings before me but then Carl was the only reason she kept them to herself. It was obvious Mariam had no fancy for me despite their was a noticable change in the number of customers since I came. She admitted the other day that sales had increased but didn't acknowledge I was the reason. I'd say it was fair enough.I also got the jealous gaze from my co-workers, a thing I should be used to by now. I always caught attention wherever I went and it always earned me enemies. I had a charm that made me stand out so how could they compare? I was a stripper after all, one of the best back at the club. I was a sucker for sex so I obviously still oozed with sex appeal.Today, I was serving at the counter filling shots for some customers. A smile lengt
TheaWe went from strangers to secret admirers then to enemies. From enemies to lovers and now we were back to being enemies.It started with lust then to anger, we transitioned to love and now we were at the point of hate. He loved me but hated me and I loved him but was angry at him for pulling the trigger on an innocent man. Would there be a point of redemption? I doubted, not if he killed Carl. How was I supposed to love him when the guilt was killing me knowing it'd be my fault if anything happened to Carl. I didn't think I could ever stop loving Angel no matter what he did and for that reason, I prayed earnestly that Carl was alive and maybe Mariam found him and got him treated. We took a private jet back, and my emotions came doubling the moment we crossed the gates. Under normal circumstance I'd be happy to return but my heart was bleeding at how everything went south. I held back my tears all the way down here. I didn't deserve to cry because I had a choice not to run away
AngelI did the right thing...I kept telling myself yet I didn't feel satisfied nor was my anger satiated. No matter how much I hated Thea the love I felt in my heart couldn't let me lay my hands on her. I was entrapped in her spell, wrapped around her fingers like I wasn't a being of my own. I must punish her even if I couldn't touch her so I called Monica my hit girl who I also gave assignments to torture people. I should feel calm and glad she was helping me carry out my wish yet a part of me was worried and I hated that part of me for feeling any love for Thea.I gulped a good quantity of the alcohol in my hand as I watched the almost naked ladies dancing on poles to secure a bid. I was watching in my vault at the club and no doubt there was extra effort on the part of these strippers who were aware of my return to the club. I went with Caspian who said he needed to make some inquiries about Sparrow secretly, regarding our ambushed shipment. I had decided to leave him in cha
AngelMy eyes were darkened with need as I watched her crawl her way back. She looked at me seductively with a sparkle of excitement in her eyes. I watched her push a finger into her mouth which she sucked so sensously. She popped the finger out and kneaded her breast sexily. She continued, delving down till her hand was in-between her thighs. She parted them slowly all the while keeping her gaze fixed on me. My lips parted slightly and I soon gulped a mould of fluid down my throat. She was alluring me to take her right there. My eyes stayed glued on her wet cunt that that dripped it's fluid down her butt."It's all yours Angel. Fuck me however you like." She said and a low growl left my throat at the invitation. My body stiffened as I imagined fucking her in different styles. I couldn't pick a position to start. "Balance yourself on any place in the room." I said giving her the choice to make. She flashed a sexy smile at me and sat up with one feet crossed over the other. She s
Angel"Eyes on me." I said towering above her and pinning her against the wall. My eyes bore into her desperate ones then I trailed my gaze down her lips which she was biting down on. I continued down and held a leg up to my hips.I came in between her, guiding my dick into her wet cunt. I lowered myself a little then pushed my dick into her pussy, feeling it wrap around my cock and coating it with it's wetness.She whimpered in pleasure, impulsively placing her hands on my shoulder for balance. Our eyes locked and I shoved down a mould. I felt her pussy constrict around my cock filling me with sensations, she pulsated sending sparks of pleasure into my shaft. "Mmm...." She moaned, hissing a second after, while keeping her eyes fixed on me. I pushed out halfway savouring the look of pleasure written all over her face then I grind my hips into her, shoving my hardened cock deep into her hole.I pulled out again and shoved them back into her pussy and I felt a stinging pain on my sho
Angel"Kneel." I commanded and she lowered herself with the cuff. I cuffed her free hand to the second pole then stood before her with my dick erect.She ached her face forward sticking her tongue out showing me she wanted to suck my cock."Can I talk?" She asked shyly. I grabbed her hair and pushed her head back so that her lips were pointing up at me. "If you can because very soon you'll be choking on my dick."A smile plastered across her face. She was excited. "Then fuck my mouth till I'm breathless." She said and I smiled darkly. "Open up."She parted her lips to welcome my dick. Carefully, I pluged my hardness into her, seeing her mouth widen with each push and her face straining and turning red from the size which she was trying to accommodate.A deep sigh left my mouth, I palmed her face and shut my eyes letting pleasure fill me over again. Her mouth was warm and coated my shaft with her saliva. I trailed my hands to the back of her hair where I dug my fingers into them, I
Angel's men as well as Lola's men had searched every part of the house to make sure there wasn't anyone hidden or any dirty business in one corner of the mansion but Sparrow didn't come short of expectations. He had some men locked down.They were Manuel's men. Angel and Knight had taken Thea home. Knight had spoken with Cassandra since the chaos was over. She was worried sick about the situation snd when she was told the goodnews she was so excited. The rest didn't hold back.Camila and Florentine wanted to hear Thea's voice to be certain that Knight wasn't lying. The gasp of relieve and tears over the phone just said how heartbroken and worried they had been about the situation. Thea's mum had been informed of Thea's rescue also, so she hurried to the mansion. Alfred and scott went along with her too. When they finally arived the compound, everyone was outside. Cassandra was the first to run into into Angel's arms, Camila and Florentine had gone to hug Thea, Camila's hug was prol
As Natalia fired shots at the wall and ground, the sparks ignited the nearby fuel canister. The fuel spilled onto the old, dry wood, and the fire spread quickly. The temperature in the room increased, causing the smoke to become thick and black.Angel and Thea panicked, covering their mouths to avoid inhaling the toxic fumes. "We need to leave here, or we'll burn!" Angel yelled.Natalia, realizing her mistake, hastily tried to find an escape. But the fire had already blocked the entrance, and the old wooden structure was beginning to collapse. The sound of cracking wood and falling fragments filled the air."We need to leave here or we'll burn." Angel said holding Thea's hand."There's no way out." She panicked, scared to go through the fire. Angel had to get her to calm down so he cupped her face in his palms. "Now isn't the time for talking my love. I believe we'll make it out. Just trust me. You have to be fast." He said and even though Thea was scared, she knew Angel would do ev
TheaI held my breath at the countdown. This had to be the scariest moment of my life. I didn't know what to expect, how being blown up would feel. Would I feel the pain or would it happen so quickly that I wouldn't feel a thing? I guess it was painless because everything here was silent. Maybe it was peaceful on the otherside.... But then a gasp echoed and I heard Angel's voice sobbing, his hands hugging my legs. It felt so real. "Open your eyes...." His voice was as real as ever. I heard the sound of air in the room, almost like my senses were heightened. The smell of fuel returned to my nostrils.Slowly, I opened my eyes to see Angel, his eyes filled with tears, his entire expression showing relieve. I let out a sharp sigh as I took in the picture of my sorrounding. My breath got deeper and my heart constricted. I began to tear up. I looked at Angel, I wanted to touch him, my hands were still tied to the chair but just seeing him was everything to me. "Angel...." I cried as te
As Angel ran to the cell where Natalia had left Thea, he noticed that Rico left him. Son of a bitch heard there was little time left and decided to save himself instead.By the time Angel arrived, Thea was sweating heavily and tearing up bitterly. His heart breaks even more seeing her condition and hearing the beeping sound of the bomb. Everything became more real. It was now a fact that if he didn't work fast he'd be losing the most important person in his life. "Thea!" He yelled wasting no time to run to her. Thea remained frozen for some seconds, wondering if he was real. Her chest began rising and falling heavily realizing he was real. Angel had come to save her. "A-Angel" She cries out his name, a wave of relieve washing through her. "Thea...." He muttered and his eyes quickly studied the bomb. He noticed that someone had already began the work and putting two things together it had to be the man that gave him the direction. "Angel there isn't much time left." She cried, tr
After Angel and Rico had seen the footage of where Natalia had taken Thea to, they immediately went to her rescue. Rico led the way as he knew the place better than Angel. On the other hand, Natalia was hurrying out of the place looking behind her with each corner she took knowing that the guard she had left behind would be running aftet her. She was going to shut the metal gate so that when he got to the entrance, he wouldn't have an escape. While she ran, the sound of hasty footsteps caught her attention and she gradually came to a halt from her flight. Her soul almost left her seeing Angel and the head security. At first, she was relieved to see that Angel was alive but soon shock enveloped her and she became confused to see the head security with Angel. They were not even close to knowing each other, so why were they together? Angel and Rico also came to a halt seeing Natalia. In that moment, Angel felt like his entire world had been turned upside down seeing the gun in Natal
My tears were unstoppable, I felt great pity for myself and I had never felt so scared in my life. With everything I had been through, I didn't deserve to die like this. I wanted to live and I wanted to be happy. I had lived my life pleasing others, If I could get one more chance to live, I would put myself first. I would spend the rest of my life with Angel and I wouldn't care about other people's opinion. Please... Just one more chance. I prayed while sobbing profusely as the clock kept ticking. I worried about Angel, he'd be so heartbroken if anything happened to me. He risked his life to save me today and he couldn't even be with me in my last moments. Then my mum, I knew she'd never forgive herself should I lose my life. Nothing would console her once I was gone.A lot of people would be hurt. This wasn't supposed to happen. I kept shedding tears, crying aloud like a kid. I grieved myself even before I blew up. I wanted to live, I really wanted to live. "I don't want to
TheaI didn't trust Natalia for even a second, when she made the proposal to Sparrow to take me to his safe room, I knew something had to be wrong but then, Sparrow trusted her. Choosing between her and sparrow was like choosing between two evil. I would have protested against going with her but staying with Sparrow and such number of guards wasn't a risk I wanted to take. If someone was to rescue me, it would be easier with Natalia but then Natalia hated me. Sparrow would only kill me by error but Natalia would do that in a heartbeat if she wanted to. It was a confusing situation and my fears were starting to become a reality. "Natalia where are you taking me to?" I asked, fear gripping my entire being when we started going a long pathway that looked abandoned. What kind of safe was this? It looked like where someone would never be found. Natalia had kept silent while the guard that came with us kept dragging me into the place. The stench of this place was terrible, I didn't t
After the phone call with Sparrow at the mansion that day, Angel assigned duties to his men, and they immediately sprang into action. They successfully tracked down the location where the video was sent from, but they were unable to trace the phone call. One crucial detail they discovered was that the location was near a gun company.The men made inquiries at the gun company to determine who had recently purchased guns. The records showed that the guns were bought under Don Ricardo's name, which raised suspicions. Angel wondered if this was why Lola hadn't been answering her calls. He wouldn't blame her if she chose not to betray her father again but he couldn't understand how Don Ricardo could be involved in this.The next day, Lola contacted Angel and arrived at the mansion. To Angel's surprise, Don Ricardo had not bought the guns. Sparrow had used his name, and what shocked Angel the most was that Sparrow had kidnapped his own father. Lola told Angel that it seemed her father had b
Thea is dragged in by Sparrow's men and the moment she sees Angel, she gasps in fear. Tears well up in her eyes and she soon tears start streaming down her face."Thea." Angel called, impulsively going to her but he is stopped from going closer."Angel!" She yells when Sparrow's men begin to kick him in the belly. Sparrow just relaxes back on his seat enjoying the sight. Thea struggles to get to Angel unable to hold back the pain she felt from seeing him hurt. He groaned in pain from the several kicks that came at him but that didn't matter to him. He just hated seeing Thea cry so bitterly for him. He kept his gaze locked on her while they beat him up.She was his strength. "I told you not to come so why?" She cried once they left him. He was willing to lay his life down to secure her freedom and she was willing to be Sparrow's play thing and live with him for the rest of her life as long as it kept Angel alive. To her, her freedom wasn't worth his life. A scream erupts from her t
