Harassing Her Briefly
<Hybrid Musicals>
*Practice 1*
Mia’s POV
“Wow, take a look at this, he look so cute in this tuxedo” A young girl muttered, showing her phone to another contestant, perhaps her friend. She nodded
“Aiden is such a cool guy, but I prefer Axel” She blurted
“Oh…nope, well Axel is cool, but he just too cold; Aiden is the best, sometimes when iu watch his movie, kissing a girl, I do put myself in her position. I felt like I am the one being kissed, oh, his lips are just so cute” She blushed
“I should have joined the movie industry just to see him every day, but the truth is, I’m not goo in acting, only music makes my world go round. The day I had about him being one of the judges of these contest, I decided to try my luck and apply. I’m not here for the fame or money I will get, I’m damn rich already, but I only wanna see the face of my crush whenever I’m on stage, and trust me, I will try my best to get his attention before the contest will end” She boated while her friend chuckled
“Your luck” She muttered as they continued their conversation. I tried not to hear more of it, it’s not new that some other girls are here for other reasons aside winning the contest, but what made me mad is how she spoke about my Aiden. She is such a slut and b**ch for trying to get him, when I am here, huh, I scoff
We are actually in a separate hall; where we are gonna have our first practice. The audition is in three days time, and no doubt, most of us are already prepared. The songs we are to sing have been sent to us, so as for us to know the lyrics and right now, we are gonna practice with musical instruments, to perfect our hearing skills and how to follow the beat steadily. The song given to me is pretty easy; or let’s says, it’s for a start. Even without instruments, I will be able to sing it perfectly. I yawn for the last time before one of the boards of directors came in, with perhaps the instrumentalist. They assemble in their right position, as the middle age-man address us.
“Good day everyone” he greeted
“Good day sir” We all replied in unison
“Erm… we are really sorry for keeping you waiting, we were having a brief meeting, so don’t be annoyed. The practice is starting soon, as you will be called one after the other to perform the song given to you, is that clear? He asked
“yes sir” We answered
“Okay…contestant 1, you are up”
The little b**ch talking about Aiden the other time stood up, going to grab the Mic. I rolled my eyes and hissed within, why do I hate her? Not like she hurt me in any way, I thought
“Perhaps because she likes your crush and is bent on getting him” My Subconscious said, as I rolled my eyes the more
“Just f**k off”

Brittany POV
It’s been a week now since I got punished by Macho, he didn’t even sent for me for the whole week, but I overheard the clan doctor telling his workers to give me the best treatment and make sure that I am well in no time; order for Macho. Perhaps he still cares about me, or maybe his guilty conscience is pushing him to do it. Well that’s if he has a conscience.
Right now, I’m heading towards the ammunition store; my main reason is to see Scorpion. I got there in no time and met him having a good time with a revolver in his hand. He was learning to perfect his target, which I think is already perfect. He shot the image on the head, which I find interesting. When it comes to handling guns, Scorpion is the best. He taught me well, and I still feel like learning more from him. He noticed my presence and faced me. A light smile appeared on my face as I made a low greeting, he nodded.
“That was awesome, you are getting better each day” I commented, he shrug
“A man got to practice in order to be perfect, or what do you think” He muttered fixing more bullets into the cartridge
“So why are you here, you should be taking your rest, you are not well recovered”
“I think I’m fine, just some few scratches to clear off” I muttered. Hr nodded, not saying more. I was expecting him to ask me about why I ignored the boss call and endanger myself by undergoing such punishment, but he didn’t.
“Thanks for the other day” I mumbled. He faced me, squinting.
“You should be grateful to God instead. Look here girl, I like you a lot being one of my best trainees then, but I won’t support you in the wrong things you do. I don’t know how your phone got lost, but o want you to be very careful while dealing with the boss. You know what you mean to him; don’t hurt others due to your carelessness, okay?” He advised
“Yes sir” I muttered, still looking at him. He smiled and headed out. I sighed, rubbing my temple.
I think scorpion knows about my relationship with Brad, or perhaps just assuming it. What he said just now is related to it. I need to tell Brad, we have to away from each other for now. I don’t Macho or any other person to know about us. Geez, this is frustrating.

Zach POV
Each day, I think about Nina I feel my whole world going apart just because I am not with her. I love her do much, and I think I can’t bare it any longer, I need to tell her about my feelings before it’s too late, I thought within. She will be arriving soon, and will be attended by the costume and makeup artist before the movie shoot will commence. I will need to drag her out of their mist or find an appropriate time to tell her about it.
Few minutes later, she walked in graciously in her expensive styles. She was putting on a bum short with yellow crop top; a pair of designer shoes and a sunglass making her look like the summer queen. She flashed a smile to the other cast and crew, nodding to their greetings as she approach me, but I was lost drooling at her no knowing when she came closer.
“Erm…Zach?” She called in an angelic voice
“Opps…oh..hi Nina” I shuttered, slightly fidgeting. “Geez, get a hold of yourself duded” that was my subconscious self
“Hi…you actually zoned out, were you drooling?” She squinted, childishly. I chuckled loudly
“Cone on girl, a normal guy will drool over a beauty goddess like you. You are just so beautiful Nina” I complemented. She blushed
“Thanks…I need to leave now…” She said, about taking her leave when I called her back
“Erm…Nina…”
“Yes..” She replied facing me
“Hmm…I actually have……”
“Hey bro..come on, we need to change” Ryan yelled, interrupting me as he rushed in. I rolled my eyes, and cursed him silently. He just spoiled my plan.
“Hi Nina…ready for the shoot” he asked as Nina smiled in return
“Yea…always ready” she muttered, and left afterward
I glared hard at him immediately she left, as he left out an annoying chuckle
“What was that for, you did it purposely right?” I asked, already boiling with anger
“Keep calm bro, I did it to save your ass and fragile heart” he scoffs
“What do you f**king mean but that” I growled
“Can’t you see it? Nina loves Aiden and not you. It’s clearly written in her eyes, if you tell her about your feelings, she won’t think twice to turn you down. And that heartbreak is gonna be severe; so in order to avoid it, just play cool now, and bring Aiden into this. Try using your senses sometimes. When you are done getting worked up, you can come join us…I’m off here” He snapped and left. I reasoned what he said for a while and came to the conclusion that he is right, I need to play this game in a right way, I was just blinded by the love I have for her.

*Triple Boys Lounge*

Ariel’s POV
I was already late for the day’s practice, as I hurriedly leave my suite. That crazy girl, Dorothy didn’t even wake me before leaving, geez, I’m gonna skin her life out when I see her, I gritted.
“Hmm…that’s if you can do that” My subconscious spoke. I rolled my eyes. “Whatever” I scoff
A message came into my phone, as I clicked on it. It was from Aiden, he actually wants me to get something from Axel’s lounge before going for the practice, and he kinda sent it hours ago. Thanks to my sleepy head I didn’t see it in time; but the most confusing fact is that I don’t know Axel’s lounge. The houses here are just too much; if not for the map I would have missed my way.
I ran into a nearby lounge, hoping to get more information on how to get to Axel’s lounge and a fast route to the practice hall. I knocked on the door, and surprisingly a guy opened it. Looking at his physique and handsome look, you will definitely know that he is an idol, but damn, he is not as cute as the twins or even Theo.
He smirked at me, opening the door wider for me to go in. I noticed two other guys in the room, they saw me but pretended not to, as they continued with their video game. I later find out that they are the Triple boys; well it was scripted on one’s shirt.
“Erm…hi…please I kinda miss my way, I need to get to Axel’s lounge now, and I…erm” I stopped when I noticed him scrutinizing my body, not listening to what I was saying
“What a beauty….did you just mention Axel” He asked, coming closer while I shifted backward, glancing at the other duo whose concentration where not on me
“Er…yea…I think I need to go” I shuttered already scared of what he is about doing to me
“No, you won’t” he held my hand. “I am Axel, are you the slut I sent for, if so…then let’s go have our lovely time” he grinned, coming more closer. I pushed him away with force, trying to leave, but he grabbed me back, pinning me to the wall, as I struggled my way out.
“Get the F**k off her Micheal, what are you doing” A guy yelled from the back, he stood up, coming towards us, as Micheal releases his grip on me.
“What the hell was he trying to do to me” I thought, wincing lightly. The other guy held my hand and led me out, with fear still in my heart. My heartbeat kept pounding had as I gasp for breath.
“Hey, are you ok” The guy asked, I think he is a member of the triple boy’s band
“Oh…I think so” I managed to say
“Ok…I’m really sorry about what he did, he is a bit drunk you know” he chuckled slightly, but replace it with a sorry look.
“I need to go now” I rushed my words and ran away before he could speak. I didn’t bother going to Axel’s lounge any longer, my mind is pretty occupied now; what Michael did right there was crazy.
I went into the practice room and noticed that everyone was present; the director squinted at me as I gave him and apologetic look. I was expecting him to scold me or something but he looked the other way facing the other contestant who was performing. My eyes caught Mia as I go to take a seat beside her. She gave me this ‘what the f**k’ look, but now is not the time to start explaining. I noticed Dorothy grinning at the person performing, I wish she could look my direction so that I will give her a hard glare, but too bad, she was blushing at the guy singing; perhaps she is crushing on him, I rolled my eyes, as I wait for my turn to be called.

<Triple Boys Suite>
Eugene came in after Ariel left, banging the door as he walk towards where Michael and his colleague sat.
“What was that for guy, do you know who she is” He barked, Michael scoffs
“Perhaps some slut” he snickered
“Shut the f**k off idiot, that girl was one of the contestant, do you know what that mean? Must you have s*x with every girl you see? What you did might ruin your career, you know”
“Get a hold of yourself Eugene, that girl is a commoner, she can do nothing to the great Michael. She won’t say a word, trust me” He bluff, Eugene scoffs
“Really, what if she tells Aiden about it” He muttered, Michael frown
“Aiden? What does she have to do with him?”
“She is his girl if you don’t know, I have seen her with him twice, and seeing their position that day made me think so. And the funniest part is that she lives with him. And you know what it means stepping on the twins’ toes; you won’t wanna get on their bad side. Good luck with your new fight with them if she made to speak about it” he snapped, going into the inner room.
“Don’t cry bro” The other guy muttered, patting his shoulder as he went the same way as Eugene
Michael sat there thinking of what he just heard. He sighs softly, rubbing his jaw, wearing a wicked smirk.
“If truly she is Aiden’s girl, then she will be a good tool for me. Wait for me sexy girl, your worst nightmare is coming” He thought inwardly.
Chapter 34Mood of Jealously<After Practice>Lunch Time“Girl, you need to tell me why you decided to be the late queen of the day, for damn sake I was scared something bad might have happened to you” Mia said as they went to the general dinning to have their lunch. Ariel rolled her eyes“Well I kinda slept late last night, and that Dorothy girl couldn’t wake me up.” She muttered. They took their seat opposite each other as other contestant step in, taking their seats at different tables.“The song I was given is a bit easy, if I was given yours, I won’t have been able to sing four lines as at now” Mia grunted“Why do you say so?”“Well, the songs you choose are really hard to perform”“Oh…they are not hard for me”They
Chapter 35Second AuditionSaturdayAriel’s POVWaking up this morning made me feel a little bit energetic. We have been doing tons of rehearsals, just to prepare well for today’s presentation and here is the D-day. The day I will be facing crowds from all over Cape Town, the whole of America and perhaps the world. Those who are not opportune to attend the venue will have to watch the live performance from TV, while other video will go viral on the internet. This alone is giving me goose bumps, as I thought of people seeing the low life Ariel on TV. What if my mum sees me, she will be damn happy that I’m beginning to fulfill my dreams, which she has always wanted.What about Miss Thompson, my harsh boss from the flower shop in my country, or Kabria, the rude daughter of a street lord, who finds pleasure in teasing and making threat at me. She also wa
Chapter 36Beating her in the GameBrittany POVRising up early in the morning, even before the cock thinks of crowing, I took off my night wears changing into my jogging outfits. Well, this had been my daily routine since I got to the clan. My former roommate then used to call me a snail for being slow sometimes, having this dizzy look when she wakes me up. She at times drag me to my feet, spanking me hard on my butt in order to recover from the dreadful compelling sleep which still lingers in my eyes, making it fade off in an instance. But right now, I’m used to getting up without being touched or told to. I missed my Ex-roommate, too bad, she died in an operation. Nora was brought in the following day, but we still haven’t got along, weird.I glance at her bunk, she was still sleeping, undisturbed by the silent noise I make; she is such a deep sleeper, I wonder what her fate will be
Chapter 37 It hurts Badly<Red Fox Clan>Brittany walked up the stairs, as her shoes made silent sounds. She knocked on the door gently, and heard a come in. The guards usually at their duty post where not there today; and it made her wonder why they left. She heard a ‘come in’, and went in without wasting more time.Stepping into the room, a fragrance smell of hot black coffee welcomed her, unlike the usual cigar and liquor smell. Marveled at the sudden change of atmosphere, she walked further into the room, sighting the Boss (Macho), shirtless with a pair of blue silk Jeans, which he loosen the front zip. His well structured back, with a bit of scars running down from his shoulder to his mid waist, colliding with a hideous tattoo, faced her. If she were to be someone else, she will long to touch it and feel it in her palm. But Macho’s case is different, he is not the Brad she lo
Chapter 38Offer Rejected; Later Accepted<AAB Entertainment>.Nina’s POVI was busy chatting with some of my colleagues when I sighted Aiden coming out from the meeting room, looking hot as ever. Geez, his look alone can seize the breath of a woman. He was putting on a navy blue maroon tee on a black Jane. The golden chain on his neck and the piece of diamond earring stuck to his left ear gave his an alluring look. I smiles broadly, waving at him. He returned the smile coming towards my direction. The girls with me where clearly drooling at him, well who won’t drool at the good looking Aided. He got the swag, the money and most importantly, the look. “Hey pretties” he muttered, flashing us a cute smile“Hi!!!!” the other girls replied, slightly blushing. They left after a bit of pl
Chapter 39Confessing Her DeedsFlora POVI have been finding it hard to get off this burden from my shoulders. Right from the time I hurt Axel, I haven’t been myself. Fine, I don’t feel a thing for him, but I still feel like I did wrong leaving him that way. He seem to be doing good now without me, but here I am, longing to be in the hands of someone else, who might not accept me for what I had done to his brother. How I wish I could just change the hands of time and start all over again; telling Axel about my love for his twin and not him. It would have been better; but that witch made things complicated for me.“Flora__” I jerked from my seat at the sound of my name“Here you go again, thinking_, come on baby, stop hurting yourself” My mum blurted, coming to seat beside me on the bed. We are actually in her apartment in Dung Town.“I
Chapter 40 Hidden Motives <Red Fox Clan> “Brittany” The voice called, closer to her. She recognizes it immediately. “Brad…oh my gosh…you scared me” She cursed, going to hug him “What are you doing out here..you should be at the party” he inquired, noticing her uneasy look “What’s wrong?” “I…ermm…” She fidgeted, unable to find the appropriate word to use. “You should also be at the party” She cooed “No…I’m on patrol this night. I’m in charge of this arena, keeping watch. You haven’t answered my question, you are shivering” He hugged her tightly as they went under a tree, shading their figures out of view, completely. “Speak up, we can’t be seen here” he whispered “I…I killed someone….Oscar” “What the F_” He exclaimed, looking round to avoid being heard by prying eyes. “You did what?” He whispered “It wasn’t inte
Chapter 41(Unholy Scene)Sophia stood in shock seeing the figure as he takes off his hood, turning to face her with a smirk plastered on his face. She breathed a sigh of relief, scoffing angrily but still hold on to the towel, wrapped around her body, to avoid it from falling off.“Michael? What the hell are you doing here” She asked. He smirks further; coming closer to her with his hands stuck in his pockets. She moved backward but stopped when her back k**sed the wall.“I came to see you. And with the look of thins, I think I came at the right time. Seeing you in this just turned me on.”“Just get out, I need to rest” She spat. He stood there still gazing at her, not moving an inch off his spot.“What are you still here, I said go, the door is that way” She snapped. His expression changed to an angry one. She noticed it, but cared less.“I love you Sophia; but you are treating me like a dog that you use and dump after completing your mission” He gritted“And so what…huhnn..that’s w
CHAPTER 93 (BLACK OUT)Police Headquarters~~ “Start talking” Noah muttered as he sat opposite Axel. He just arrived as he decided to know what move the police are taking“Erm..i’m sorry Mr. Jenkins” Axel stated He scoffed“You are sorry…you left for good three weeks, without allowing anyone reach you and all you can say is sorry..what has gotten over you this kid” He snapped. Axel’s head was bowed as he continue to plead“Fine…now tell me, how was she kidnapped and what are they doing about it.” He asked referring to the police“We had an argument, and erm…she left in tears without allowing anyone to go with her. We never knew she had left until her message came into my phone seeking for help in an unknown location”“We?”“Yes..I was with Aiden”“Fine go on…”“We watched the footage of how she left my house into the woods; the live cameras captured the faces of those men who kidnapped her. They were four and a lady. Their records are being worked on; they will be tracked before the
Chapter 89(Where is mum?)Africa~~Ariel’s POVI was so excited to breath in the fresh air, as we came down from the plane. Axel had fulfilled his promised of bringing me here to see mum, and I can’t tell how happy I am. It’s been months since I left home; coming back here is more like a relief. They are my people, the culture is perfect, different for the western culture, but I still love it even if it seems attic.We lodge in a hotel to get enough rest before proceeding to the slum where mum resides, or let’s say my former home. Axel has been himself this few days, none of us talked more on what happened the other day, but I think I’m cool not speaking about it, it’s better that way.“What route should I take” Axel muttered from the wheels. We had rented a car for the main time, before leaving.
Chapter 88(Confused Feelings)Aiden’s POV“Gosh..I messed up big time..I shouldn’t have done it, but my urge was irresistible” I cursed softy, remembering last night scene. I almost had my way with her; if grannie Naomi’s voice hadn’t ring out behind the door, then it would have been a different case. She had actually been looking for Josephine and decided to come tell me about her getting missing suddenly, not knowing she was in with him. We flipped of each other, as Josephine made for the door.She managed to convince Grannie that she was only checking on me, being that I was depressed and getting myself drown in drinks I was still a bit tipsy though, but was conscious of what was happening around me. Grannie Naomi scolds me for some time, warning me not to go near hot liquors again. And that was all I could remember before drifting into a long sleep. I
Chapter 87(I want you)Sophia’s POV“I can’t believe dad will decide to do this to me..it’s wrong” I scoff, bringing out a pack of cigarette from my drawer. Yea, I smoke, but it’s still a secret to everyone, because I know how to keep it low. I lighted a stick taking a hard drag as my phone rings“Hello” I muttered with a gruff voice as the caller’s voice came up“Hello ma’am”“Any news on where they are?” I asked, puffing out balls of smoke“Not yet ma’am…but we traced them to Texas..it’s won’t be long before we get hold of her”“That’s a bit of good news, but I want more…I’m giving you two weeks to get me her head…and if you fail, consider your head rolli
Chapter 86(Heart Breaks)“Peggy” she whispered, gawking at her“It’s me Gina…come on let us in” Miss Peggy stated, with a wide smile, as Gina engage her in a tight hug“Oh My gawd…is this a dream..I mean..I had thought all hope is lost since the day you left with Ariel, not until I saw the videos…oh gosh…you are welcome..come in…Hi” She greeted Scarlet with a soft smile while scarlet only nodded, smiling briefly.“You can also come in Kabria..” Gina beckoned as Kabria shrug“I don’t wanna pry into your discussion, I will just wait outside” she stated and left. Gina sighed“So what can I offer you both…gosh..I’m sorry..there isn’t any drink at home for now…perhaps water will do first while I go down the street to get you some drinks&rdqu
Chapter 85(Punishment)AFRICA.“Hmm…it’s so good to be home..just take a look at how fresh the air smells” Miss Peggy breathed in as she and Scarlet made their way to Ariel’s former house.“Yuck…this place stinks…” Scarlet grimace, as she frowns“It’s a slum dummy, you won’t expect everywhere to be pleasant..will you?”“I still prefer my country’s slum…this place is more like a dump” Scarlet stated“I think you have forgotten that this is still my country, and I won’t take that insult from you Scarlet.There are other places that are safe and nice..don’t judge a book by its cover “ Miss Peggy muttered sternly. Scarlet rolled her eyes.“Are we there already” Scarlet asked with a stressed
Chapter 84(Curiosity)Cottage~~ Ariel’s POVI woke up yawing loudly as I stretch my bones; it made cracking sounds as I pull the blanket off my body. I noticed feeble sun rays invading the room through the window. Gosh…It’s morning already….nope it’s not morning..it’s already noon, I shriek jumping out of bed after glancing at the wall clock.“Did I really sleep for that long? And where is Axel?” I asked no one in particular.“You won’t be expecting him to be beside you when you wake up duh…” My subconscious replied as I rolled my eyes. My stomach made annoying noises which means that it needed to be fed. I walk sluggishly to the bathroom; well Axel actually showed it to me yesterday. I quickly freshen up; pulled out a cloth from my box and wore it.I made my way out, looking fresh after a warm bath as I head down the short steps that lead to the living room. Axel is actually not in his room, and I’m beginning to wonder if he hasn’t left me alone here, not until a sweet smell waft t
Chapter 83(See You In Court)Texas City~~Axel’s POV.I turned off the ignition, just after parking in front of a cottage. The journey was smooth being that Ariel decided to fall asleep; she has been crying silently before falling asleep. Right now, we are miles away from Cape Town; in the outskirt of Texas City, where the sea, that links to another country is.I own the little cottage that stood few meters away from the sea, in the middle of the shore. This place used to be my secret hide out whenever I wanna be away from everyone. I come here alone, and not even a soul knows that I own here, well, except for the care taker whom I put in charge of cleaning the place. I had called him about my coming while we were still on highway.Ariel mumbled inaudible words in her sleep as I turn t
Chapter 82(No Choice)Ariel’s POV.I just tried mum’s number again but it was still giving the same response; not reachable. I don’t know how long I will have to wait for all this to be settled, because I’m really missing mum right now. I’m just waiting for the time I will be able to travel on my own; I won’t hesitate to grab the opportunity. Africa will be the first place in my mind.I sigh for the umpteen time, dropping my phone on the side stool as I made to have a quick nap. But my rest was cut short when Axel barge into the room, looking a bit enrage. Well, his facial expression showed that he is either angry, or perhaps had cried to have make his face look red.“Get your bags, we are leaving” he muttered coldly, going to pick up some of his clothes in the wardrobe as he stuff it into his box. I couldn’t process what he meant at first“W-What…but why…we just got here…” I shuttered. He heaves a sigh“Yes…but we are leaving now..”“Will you please state your reasons” I asked. I c
