CassieI felt myself moving in bed but there was a huge obstruction before me, my eyes were heavy and so was my head, when the faint smell of alcohol hit my nostrils, I remembered I had drank the other night. I was hit with realization and my eyes bulged open to see the figure of a man holding me in his arms. He felt warm and a second smell mixed with that of alcohol hit me. It was his scent, one that I was familiar to and intoxicated by.It was him, Knight. "Oh my goodness!" I yelled jolting out of his arms and out of bed. My lips were spread into a circle, I was shocked and confused at the same time wondering how he got into my bed. I watched Knight sit up in bed so calmly, he was shirtless, showing off his broad chest, biceps, stomach packs and bulging chest. Damn it! I found myself gulping feeling heat of desire wash over me. I was in his arms all night. "How did you get into my room?" I asked dread filling me for whatever might have transpired between us. I hugged my body, ru
AngelWhen I got home that morning I went straight to my office and had a bottle of wine. I found my way back to my room and fell on the couch. I didn't intend on getting drunk again, not after what happened the last time where I kissed a maid thinking she was Thea. Again, Thea. She tortured me with her very existence. Every fucking thing always connected to her. As usual Florentine had waited for me to arrive from the club, she noticed my mood and asked what was wrong but I ignored her because there was no point in telling her. From what I observed, not everyone in the house shared my anger and feeling of betrayal. I knew they were careful not to say it but aside Knight and Caspian the ladies seemed to have sided with Thea. I could just feel it, not even my sister, Cassie believed Thea was guilty. "Lola called." Florentine said when I didn't respond to her. I checked my phone and saw several missed calls from her. She had called like I was a missing person. What could be so import
TheaI knew Angel had gone to the club that night and no one needed to tell me what he had done there. It hurt to think about it but I guess I was getting used to all the pain. After morning duty, I was informed by Irene that I was to go for a check up with Florentine. The news came as a surprise to me because I had no such discussions with her. She probably just wanted to give me some food and let me rest at her place or it could Camilo's doing. Florentine was at least the safest reason to take me away from work right now. I knew this whole thing was getting on Irene's nerves but I didn't care, I needed the rest and my baby did. I went to Florentine's room and was surprised when I saw the girls with her too.Camilo and Cassie, they all stood before me beaming with smiles. I couldn't stop myself from smiling back but it came out with tears. I missed them so much, I missed us together like this. "So are we having a hug or not?" Cassie said spreading her arms towards me. I wiped my
AngelWhen my eyes locked with Thea, I wasn't ready for the reaction that came next because it began to make me doubt everything I had believed so far. Why was she in such pain?"Thea, Thea what's wrong?" Florentine yelled holding Thea by the hand. I too was shocked at her sudden reaction. I didn't know what to do but I was shaken from the look of pain she had. What was wrong?And why was she acting this way? "I just want to go...." She cried with tears spilling from her eyes. My heart clenched seeing her show so much pain, my head was a storm of confusion and for the very first time I began to doubt everything. . "Thea!" Florentine yelled as her feet suddenly went wobbly almost falling her to her feet. I didn't know when my legs moved in a haste but I was standing next to Thea with my hands wrapped around her waist and my body shaken from fear.She was scaring me. "Thea, what's wrong? What's wrong with her Florentine!" I directed my worry through anger to Florentine. She said not
TheaMy eyes struggled while fluttering open, I felt weak and restricted and it somehow registered in my mind that I was lying down but then I remembered having this awful cramps... Wait, where was I? I finally opened my eyes to see the ceiling above me, I looked down on my belly and immediately my hands went down to feel it. Even though I was yet to have a bump I still tried to feel it to know if it was still in there.My baby... What had happened to it? I only hoped it was fine. No, It needed to be fine. I remembered being soaked in my own blood and then everything went blurry and now I was in this bed. It scared me seeing the amount of blood I had lost. Was it possible that it survived? "Thea....you're awake." I heard Camilo speak and then came Cassie's voice. I turned to my side to see their relieved faces and my face turned pale. They knew...."How are you feeling?" Cassie asked stroking my hair gently. How I felt didn't matter, I just wanted to know what happened to my baby.
TheaToday, Florentine had gone to get the result of the ultrasound. I had prayed with all my heart these two days to have nothing but good news but I couldn't help being scared of the worst. I had not touched a thing since the day I collapsed, I knew it was Angel's doing and even though we had an encounter back then at the clinic, the hurt and regret he expressed to me that day meant nothing to me and I could never forgive him if anything happened to our baby. I had not seen Angel since that day as well, it seemed he was respecting my decision and staying away. He didn't know about our child yet, it was just a secret I shared with the girls and Knight now. Cassie and Camilo had not come visit either because I had asked Florentine to keep them away, I couldn't face them, all they did was support me and I hid such big secret from them. My patience was running out as I waited for Florentine, I had called several times but she wouldn't pick up. Out of curiosity I went into the bathro
CassieLife isn't fair, it certainly was not.Thea deserved better than she got. I believed she was unfortunate to have been entangled in a forbidden romance with my brother, her step brother. I wanted Angel to be happy, he was my brother after all and I loved him more than I could ever express but I'd call a spade a spade.True, I was sad that I was left in the dark about Thea's pregnancy and I couldn't blame her for her decisions because none of us were bold enough to stand up to Angel and defend her. We were all guilty of knowing she was innocent and playing easy with Angel but now that the worst had happened, I didn't give a care about not getting on my brother's bad side. It was hard enough not to tell him about his child and torture his conscience with it. I needed to do something, to ease my angry heart. "He's back ma'am." A maid said and I nodded dismissing her. I had asked her to keep an eye out for Angel for when he'd return. I needed to say somethings to him. I made my
Knight I watched Cassie walk out on me like my threat meant nothing to her. I was fucking pissed off. If she was that mad at her brother why fucking go out with a fucking guy from school!Damn this! I tried to hold myself back from going after her and dragging her back into the mansion. How the fuck did she have the guts to say that to my face after we've kissed and after she asked me to make love to her. Why was she being so damn difficult? I sighed deeply, combing my fingers through my hair, I should let her go and let her think I was just bluffing. I would really love to see the motherfucker that got to pick her up and he better not have some stupid interest in her because if I saw him giving the slightest flirtatious look at her I'd slam my fist to his fucking face."This is all your fault Cassie... Fucking with my mind so easily." I said more to myself. There was no one around to listen anyway.I had something really important to attend to and after that I'd go after Cassie. I
By the end of their visit, Thea was getting ready to tell her mum her final decision. Louisa didn't still approve of her relationship with Angel. Although she was eternally grateful to him for saving her daughter's life. Thea had called her mum to speak to her alone. Louisa had an idea why Thea had called to speak with her. She only hoped the outcome was in her favour. "You're staying right?" She asked, too impatient to allow Thea speak first. Thea stared at her mum feeling speechless for some seconds. "Thea?" She called. "We'll be together. I promise you'll never have to go through what you've gone through my baby girl. I promise." She said desperately, hoping that would move Thea to stay with her at least. Thea felt sad knowing that it would take more time for mum to adjust to the fact that she was choosing Angel over her. "I know you'd do everything within your power to make sure of that but I'm sorry to break your heart mum." She said feeling very bad for what she was about to
The next morning, I snuck out of Angel's room to head back to my room. It was funny that I had to sneak since Angel and I were full grown adults but the circumstances didn't permit us to act like one. As I walked carefully, darting my eyes around for my mum so she didn't see me, I got startled when I saw her coming in my direction. I run into the kitchen to avoid hoping she wasn't coming this way too but I get startled again when I see Scott. Scott looks at me suspiciously and I try to act normal. "Hey.... Scott." I called hoping my voice didn't sound nervous. "How was your night?" He asked holding a glass of water in his hand. "Great!" I said and he nodded but didn't look convinced at the unbothered act I was putting up now. "I see...." He said then gulped down the glass of water. "I came for some milk." I said moving towards the fridge. Even the silence felt awkward. "Over there." He points showing me a carton of it. There was none in the fridge. "Have you seen Angel this mo
Angel pulled the phone from his ear and I did the same too. He chuckled as he watched the full length of my body. "I fucking missed you." He said as he eyed me seductively. "Come here." He said huskily and a shy yet excited smile lengthened my lips. I quickly glanced around and excitedly jumped into his arms. Angel grabbed my legs pulling my body up to his waist while I wrapped my arms around his neck. He shut the door behind us then dug his fingers into my hair, pulling my face to his. His lips brushed against mine and my pussy instantly flooded with horny fluids. Angel held my weight up his waist with one hand and began to kiss me so hungrily. There was no breathing space and I didn't even want to breath if it meant that his lips had to be apart from mine for even a second. I dug my fingers into his hair as well kissing him back with the same hunger he used to devour my lips. Angel takes our kiss to the bed, he places me gently on it. My nightwear hikes to my waist, exposing my
Thea Now that everything was settling in, it was time to visit my mum. I knew she had been waiting for my return. In the meantime, I heard a beautiful time at the mansion, staying with my girls, the men and most importantly Angel. I was really glad that everything had been settled, our enemies defeated. It felt like a huge burden had been lifted from our shoulders. For the first time, it didn't feel like we were on the edge, it felt really relaxing and joyful. The life we had now was what we had always fought to achieve. To see it become a reality was a dream come true. At the mansion, while we were getting ready to leave, Angel and I were already dressed and he was sitting across me on a stool, holding my hands. It felt so emotional knowing that we had nothing to worry about. Except that there was one thing I haden't been honest with him about. It was about Scott. Our relationship was having a fresh start and I didn't want to build it in secrecy. I wanted to be completely open
I felt terribly sorry for Lola for losing her father in such a horrible way. She had gotten her revenge on Sparrow but even that wasn't enough to make up for the pain he had caused her. Angel and I had attended her father's funeral, she was such a strong woman and I hoped she found her happily ever after someday. She was a good person and deserved it. Alfred on the other hand had decided to leave the city. He couldn't bear the heartbreak of losing me. I had learnt that he returned his business headquarter where he came from. I was glad too. I hoped he found a real purpose to his life and became a better person. I was glad that his wife was also happily married to a man that deserved her and had two kids with him. He was rich just like Alfred. I had made it my business to see her and ask for forgiveness. She was quite understanding holding no grudge against me."Alfred would have cheated on me with another stripper even if you weren't in the picture." She said asking me to rid mys
Sparrow wished he could smile but his lips were ruined. "Boss we've come to save you. We are sorry we came late." One of the men who held Lola said and sparrow was more than happy. Whoever it was, he owed the person his life. They untie him and carry him out of the cell. He kicks Lola despite his physical pain and he hums that they should beat her up. They couldn't understand him despite his hand gestures so they brought a pen and paper and asked him to write. He wrote down 'beat the hell out of the bitch don't kill her, I'll do that in a more creative way.' he wrote and handed it to them but the moment he handed it to them, something occured to him and he turned around to look at the men escorting him. How did they know that he couldn't speak and bring a pen and paper for him? He dropped both pen and paper realizing it was a scam. One of the men looked at the pen and paper on the floor then he smiled mischievously. Lola walks through them, a smile on her face then she began to l
Trigger warning: This is a torture scene. Lola takes revenge on sparrow. You can skip this chapter if you are not cut out for it. Lola had sent her father off, the pain she had experienced was undescribable. She never thought such heart wrenching pain could exist. Her heart was bleeding. She didn't think she could ever get over losing her father but she could do something about the anger and hate she felt inside. Angel and Thea as well as the mafia council, and Don's of various cartels were in attendance to show their support to her. After the funeral, she took some days off to soak up her tears then she returned to take her revenge on the person who made her life miserable. Sparrow had been caged in one of Don Ricardo's properties deep in the woods and Isolated. It was the slaughter house for her predecessors.They only used it rarely for people who committed great crimes against them. She never thought she'd have to use it but here she was. She had given the order for Sparrow
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
