Lucas stood behind his bar tapping on the wine holder, he was deeply worried. He had tried calling Jenny to know how she was doing but her phone did not go through.

He felt restless. He had really wanted to hear her voice before going to bed.

"What am I supposed to do now?" He asked himself hissing.

"You wait till morning then call her," something said at the back of his mind. He had no choice but to agree to that.

Owen tucked Mercy to bed and he could not stop himself from kissing her forehead. There came with the sense of familiarity again.

Mercy had her stares on his face, searching for a clue that she knew this guy.

It didn't make sense to her that she would feel so much attached to a stranger and her dad had to trust this stranger enough to leave her in his care. What could that be called?

The old man had the audacity to call and ask Owen to look after that he would not come back until tomorrow morning. What kind of a father would do that kind of stuff?

    David set Vivian on the couch and began bringing out the stuff he had inside the danfo bags on Vivian's watch. He brought out a blanket and laid it down on the floor then placed the pillows on the laid Blanket. He brought out two sets of comfy nighties, one for him and one for Vivian. Vivian's eyes lit up and she smiled lovingly at him. He did not seem to notice anything else but his task at hand. David then got rid of his shirt leaving him in just his boxers, put on his pants, picked up the pillow and the blankets and then went to sit next to Vivian who was busy admiring his well built body in front of her. She wasn't shy at all, which was expected of her. "Ain't you going to change or you want me to do that for you?" He asked, winking at her. She laughed and picked up the nighties meant for her and left to change. Few minutes later, she was back, all set and ready to go to sleep. David was curled up already waiting for her. "Come here," he ordered and she went to him

    "I won't be too careless. " Mercy said softly.A few minutes later Dr. Matthew was done checking Mercy and he stood up looking at Mercy with the kindest look ever, "You are fine, Mercy. You should rest more and get more rest. I told you earlier that your healing fast depends on you. A nurse will come right away to see to you, be good." Dr. Matthew gave Mercy a kiss on her forehead, smiled at Mr. Kingston "this should be all for now. She is in perfect shape." Mr Kingston thanked him and he left, leaving Mercy in deep contemplation on her own thoughts. Mr. Kingston walked to her and kissed her forehead, "good morning, beautiful, happy new day.""Thanks, Dad. Mom?" she asked, raising her head up. "She is fine and will drop by later." Mercy wondered why she did not come with him and decided to ask. It was still early in the morning but it was unlike her mother. "Dad, why is mummy not here with you? I thought she was supposed to be the first to come here?" Mr. Kingston smil

  • In Love With My Brother-in-law   Jenny Still Missing

    As I sat in the dimly lit room with my hands wrapping around my knees and my hands curled on the soft mattress, with teary eyes, I had no clue of how to get out of here. If it was just me with no one to worry about, I would not have bothered, after all I was comfortable somehow but then I have people back at home who would be worried sick about me. It was obvious that I had gone missing. I thought of what time it could be and sighed. I was supposed to be in the arms of the one I love, cuddling and having the best morning of my life but here I was left in an enclosed door with no hope of how and when I would be out of here, with lingering stares of the prying dudes around. "I have got to do something, I can"t sit around and wait for help to come to me," I suddenly thought, "I could say for the fact that whoever brought me here has a soft spot for me." I smiled knowing that there was a possibility that what I was about to do would work. I just have to draw attention t

    Tasha has disregarded me so much yet I took it as a way of being sorry. "I am leaving today." She stated when I stayed quiet. I was quiet not because I did not have so much to say but because I had no strength for such. "Why so soon, are you not meant to be here and search for your friend or is she no longer your friend?" There was sarcasm in my face and she could detect it because I saw anger flashed on her face but she masked it up immediately. "You seemed to forget that you asked me to leave here yesterday and Jenny missing has nothing to do with me. In as much as I want to stay back and see her come home to you, I can't. I have got issues at home and I need to go home to settle it with my mom." She paused to look at me, "Jenny has you and her mom to worry about her, you love her so much that I believe the love you have for her will bring her back to you. She is a fighter and believe me when I say to you she will be back, she will surely be back." She ended and then look

    Owen had not realized there was someone outside the door waiting, until he ran into her. Kulture saw him running into her direction yet she stood her ground, maybe she was thinking she had got magical powers that would make him snap out and see her standing at the door. Owen halted and stared at her confused, "do you think you are a ghost for me to run through you?" He asked, rubbing his forehead. Kulture smiled, "you should say sorry. Do you know if I know you are coming? I might have been daydreaming about some handsome dude that I forgot that I am standing right in the way."Owen sighed, whatever she was saying did not make sense to him. "Oh right, the baby? You made mention of her coming with a tag and she was asked to be taken care of, was there something else you know?" He asked impatiently and Kulture stared at him lost. "Why would he be interested to know about Claire unless he knows something?" She wondered. "Is there any?" His anxious voice brought her out of he

  • In Love With My Brother-in-law   Trouble For Jenny

    Jenny's point of view... The moment I opened my eyes, my heart sank. I was back in the room and this time around tied. How stupid I was to think I was going to escape just like that. It was too good to be true. Seeing those bodyguards surrounding me, I had thought I would not wake up ever again. "Escaping!" I laughed in my mind as I tried sitting up. The next second, the door flinged up and Mr rude guy, the guy of yesterday, came in looking so angry. Instead of shuddering, I stared at him squarely in the eyes. "Do you know what your little stunt has caused me?" He barked, charging at me. I could feel the ropes rubbing against my skin. They dug deeper when he gripped my upper arm and dragged me up with his free hand. He pushed my arms to either side of my head to keep me from moving.With one foot on top of mine he looked down at me, "you almost made me lose my job." He thundered and graced my cheeks with a slap. The impact of the slap stung like hell. For a moment I was see

    Vivian was the first to wake up and she had a blush creeping up on her face when she saw the sleeping handsome by her side. She couldn't believe how peaceful she had slept throughout the night, to the extent of waking up so late. She checked the wall clock and it was almost 9 in the morning. "That's first," she muttered and snuggled closer to David."What's first?" David asked, opening her eyes. She had not realized he was awake. "Nothing, I was saying it was the first time for me to sleep so late into the morning." He smiled at her reply and nozzled his nose on her cheek. "There is a first time for everything." He said, raising a little, using his elbow to support himself, "good morning, beautiful." "Morning, David." She replied and stood up instantly. David was surprised at why she had to stand like she was being chased. "Don't look at me like that, I need to go to work. I don't have all day.""Oh!" Was all David could say as he struggled to his feet, "I totally forgo

    Thomas pulled his hand away from Zain's shoulders, looking at him surprised. "I can?" He asked, now confused."Of course, you can," Zain replied then laughed, "sure you can. Have you forgotten you read minds and tell the future. Can't you tell where Jenny is and how to find her and if she will ever be found?"Thomas understood the kind of help Zain wanted from him and sighed, it was a pity he could help him. "My ability is limited to telling the future, the past and the present of someone I can see, not someone I can't see. I am not a fortune teller. I just have got a gift to see a little bit of someone's future. So sorry I can't help in this situation. All I can say is that Jenny will come back home unharmed."Zain's little hope dashed instantly. He said nothing to Thomas as he started moving towards the van. Thomas shrugged off his shoulders as he picked his phone to make a call. He delegated to officer James what they found and gave the location of the car. When he was do

    "We are with you every step of the way," Mom said after a while. The silence was threatening to engulf us, thank God she broke it. "You will have to do me a favor. In no circumstances should you tell anyone where I am. If possible, deny ever seeing me." I pleaded with Mom "It's going to be hard but we will do it," Miss Celine assured me, holding my shoulders. "I guess your mom and I had to be the one keeping ourselves company from now on. This is for the best. Just know that I will miss you dearly." She added, smiling at me. It seemed to break something inside me as tears were already filling my eyes. She held me tight, not letting go for several seconds before letting go and I wiped my tears. " Okay, guys let's go see what there is to eat?" She shouted and Michael wriggled himself down from my arms, both of them ran to her as she took them out of the room. She blew kisses to me before exiting the room "Find the kitchen yourself. You are now part of the family," Mom shouted after t

    I continued when it was obvious she was not going to say anything until I was done "It was like nature was with me, your stay back home lingered and school wasn't opening anytime soon. I was initially at Tasha's place and her mom being a nurse, she was getting closer to knowing the truth so I looked for an alternative and that's where Miss Celine came in. My spirit accepted her the moment I saw her and I knew I was going to trust her, so we told her about my pregnancy and the circumstances surrounding it. She took me in without questions. I found out she was unmarried and which I found odd. I was eight months gone when you returned back home, I had to keep lying to you to let me be at Tasha's place. "After I delivered the twins three months to my sixteenth birthday, I could not keep lying to you so a month later I returned home and three months later school was reopened."She let go of my hands and sat on her bed, "so how did they survive without you and what about the money

    I walked through the door and halted. The door was slightly opened so I was able to open it noiselessly. She was cooking and it was my favorite, oatmeal. Looked like she missed me and she decided to prepare the meal for her so she doesn't miss me much. I was just so glad she was okay, that b*stard did not harm her. I dropped my handbag on one of the dinner chairs and walked towards the kitchen, tiptoeing. She was having her back on me, facing the pot and stirring the content inside. Her hair was packed up and she had one of her favorite red long gowns on. I saw her back stiffened and she swiftly turned towards me. I stood moving and stared at her speechless. Her expression turned from rigid to surprise then to mild. She walked towards me in a flash and engulfed me in her arms,"oh! My baby! I have missed you so much." She said rocking me to and fro. I had to check my brain to remember when I saw her last and it was yesterday. How come she missed me so much? "Mom, I m

    I stood fazed for a moment, trying to understand what she said. Like, was she for real. I have not got out of the one I entered and another lady was on the line to finish me completely but looking at the offer, it was something that would favor me. She was beautiful and curvy. How would Jenny feel if she gets to know that I replaced her the day she left? It would be depressing and I think I like the sound of that. "Is that all?" I asked, smiling. She was surprised, her expression said so. I bet you she was not expecting me to agree to that. "Yeah but are you for real?" she replied slowly, raising her eyebrows at me and looking puzzled. I sighed deeply before nodding and saying, "yes.""Or are you not interested again?" I questioned, raising my brows this time around. "Of course I am interested," she responded, getting up and smiling coyly at me, "I will do anything you want and you will not regret that.""I bet I won't. The name is Zain Zidat and you are?" "Lora Leigh.""Ni

    For a moment I froze, not moving, allowing him to kiss me. It was grossing but I must admit, I kind of like the feeling but so to say, it was irritating at the same time.I slowly parted my lips and let out a breathy sigh against his mouth, I could feel Felix smiling against me.As he broke the kiss I felt a tingling sensation in my stomach. "How dare you kiss me like that?!" I snapped as I tried to pull away."How dare I!? Well, what'chu gonna do 'bout it? Don't try to escape me!" He smirked.I scoffed before crossing my arms "Oh yeah?""Yeah, you should feel lucky that it isn't me who is trying to get away right now."I narrowed my eyebrows at him. He smiled at me before chuckling.I huffed, "shut up!""Make me," he murmured under his breath before leaning forward kissing me again. I suddenly became angry and pushed him away, made to get out of the car but he gripped my wrist," I am sorry if I overstepped my boundary." He whispered.I sighed and leaned my head back on the head

    "Hi Tasha, were you planning to leave without going into the ice cream shop?" Felix asked, walking over to me. He had a plastic bag with him and it looked like he just stepped out because his sports car was parked a few inches away from the shop or let's say he was just coming into the ice cream shop for the first time today which I doubted. I really don't get it, the Shylins are one of the richest in town yet Mrs Shylin, his grandmother runs an ice cream shop. I chuckled nervously," Ahaaa! not really."I responded, scratching my hair in an awkward manner. "Let me get this straight, you had in mind to come here and at the last minute, you changed your mind because you might run into me?" He caught me right there and I didn't know how to tell him he was wrong which I know he was not. I chuckled as I nodded, "yeah, that's what it sounds like."He gave me an odd look before he turned towards the door and started walking in. "Felix darling, where did you go?"I heard Mrs Shyli

    Zain and Thomas met the trio at the entrance of the house as they were about to go out like Thomas requested. Thomas stared at Harrison and cringed, the aura he was getting from Harrison wasn't a good one and before he could understand why, Harrison spoke up. "Hey Zain, where are you going, looking like you lost your life," Harrison commented looking concerned. "I am just stepping out with Thomas, I did not realize you guys were coming over to my house." Zain said, trying not to look like his problem. "Oh, sorry about that. We came to congratulate Jenny on her engagement with you, telling you would have spoiled the surprise."Harrison said and walked in leaving them standing at the door. Zain turned to Thomas,"can we do this later?""Sure. When you are done let me know," Thomas replied, giving him a gentle smile and left for his own house. Zain turned on his heels and walked back into the house followed by Ethan and Nathan. Harrison was seated before the trio walked into the livi

    Jenny's point of view… When I saw Celine's call, I was relieved. It means she was safe and sound with my kids. I had to pretend as if nothing was wrong because she was this sensitive person that smells your trouble from faraway. I was sitting inside the car, parked at a stop for over fifteen minutes now with no destination in mind. I knew I was going to go home but was I ready to explain to mom that I had kids? How I was able to hide the pregnancy from her. She will be mad, so mad that it would take grace for her to understand that I did what I did because I wasn't ready to face her. "I am glad you are but we need to talk." That statement alone was ready to give me a heart attack. Though this was not the first time she had mentioned 'we need to talk' that kind of thing. It was like her every other day phrase but today, regarding what I had gone through in the past few hours I wasn't sure if they were okay so I panicked. I was worried and expecting her to talk but she was taking ti

    Zain's point of view…. The moment the door closed I went down on my knees, clutching my heart. It was breaking into pieces and I could not do anything about it. I did not stop her from leaving and I was not sure it was the right thing to do. What can I do for her to forgive me? Wasn't she supposed to tell me that she has not forgiven me instead of going this extreme and was I to hate her after everything? It was obvious she stopped loving me a long time ago and I had foolishly thought she still loved me. "Zain, it's your fault. If you had not looked in another direction, what is happening now would have been prevented. Deal with the rejection or find a way to get her back but let her off for a while, you both need your space." I advised myself which seemed like the worst advice ever. I was not strong enough to live without her, she actually gave me my ring back, wow! "Jenny, why?" I kept asking that question. This was too much for me to bear. She indeed planned this reven
