Honey.

I was still walking away from the gazebo when I felt a hand hold on to me. “Honey, wait!”

I turned and shot him a glare. “What?!”

“I understand that you are angry and you wish I didn’t kill Avery, but no matter what I do now, it won’t bring Avery back so can’t we just try to move past that?”

“Even if it doesn’t, that doesn’t stop you from killing others.”

Lorenzo furrowed his brows, his gaze darkening. “Everyone I had killed deserves it one way or the other. You might not see things the way I do, but showing mercy is something one shouldn’t have when you run a business like mine. It always comes back to haunt you. I know this because I watched my father go down because of it. He had mercy on the wrong people and they came back and killed my whole family and took him to jail. At the end, he was murdered there,” he sighed, his gaze looking distant, like he was thinking about something dark about his past. “Honey, all my life I've been betrayed and alway feel like I should be one

    Honey. Lorenzo had kept his words. He had let me used one of his private jet to travel to meet my family. All through the flight, I was feeling nervous and excited at the same time. This was the first time in forever that I will be finally seeing my parents and couldn’t wait to give my father the gift I had got him at the shoe store. Yes, Lorenzo had gone to collect it for me from the shoe store. I still wasn’t free around Lorenzo, but I was starting to believe he was changing for the better. I clenched the gift box in my hand, smiling. When I got to the restaurant Lorenzo had booked for my father’s birthday party, I rushed inside. My Mom, Dad and Amelia were seated, anxiously waiting for me. The moment they saw me, they all stood up and came to hug me. When my father embraced me, I broke down in his arms. “Honey, what’s wrong?” He pulled back and looked at me with concern. I smiled and stopped myself from crying. I don’t know why I was crying when I was finally given a chance to

  • Knots & Tie    Make Sure You Find Honey!

    Lorenzo. I was in the living room, checking the CCTV cameras of the restaurant I had booked for Honey’s father’s birthday party. I needed to ensure she was safe. Although I had sent some of my strongest men to watch over her, I still wasn’t comfortable being this far from her. I wished I had followed her, but Honey had made me promise not to come with her. She still hadn’t warmed up to me and I didn’t want to give her a reason to withdraw from me so I had stayed back at the island watching her movements from afar. When I saw her talking to her father through the CCTV cameras and storming off to the restroom, I knew something had made her angry. And I wasn’t surprised when I saw her call.I picked it up, knowing she was going to pour it out on me. “How dare you lie to me, Lorenzo?”“Honey, what’s going on?” I asked, fearing something bad had happened. “Did something happen?”“Just when I thought that there could actually be something good about you, I found out that everything about

  • Knots & Tie    Part Two: Cuffs & Steel

    Honey. I dragged my face along something cold. My head throbbed as pain rippled through my body. I opened my eyes and looked around my surroundings. My hands were cuffed to a pole and I was in a room filled with barrels and bottles. It looked like an underground cellar. The whole thing that had happened prior to this moment flooded my mind and I whimpered as I remembered how the building had erupted in flame, exploding on those I had loved. The thought that I could have been one of them made me feel guilty for being alive. Tears burned my eyes as I sobbed quietly in the dark room. I rested on the solid pole and dragged my body along it as I tried to sit up. The door to the cellar opened. Heavy footsteps resonated in the dark room as someone walked inside. Turning, I looked at my captor and my heart slammed heavily in my chest when I saw who he was. I shook my head, backing myself up the pole. Why had he kidnapped me? He was a close ally of my boyfriend so why had he betrayed

  • Knots & Tie    This Was All His Fault

    Honey. “Drop the phone and go down on your knees,” the man pointing his gun at my face said in a hushed tone, looking like he was a second from shooting me if I disobeyed him. I was on a call with Lorenzo so I knew he couldn’t have been the one to send these men to me. But these men dressed just like Lorenzo’s men so what the hell was going on? Why is one of his men pointing his gun at me?Without saying anything, I dropped the phone, but didn’t hang up. Then, I got down on my knee, hoping they were just here for me and would spare my family. “Please don’t hurt my family,” I begged. “You can tell me what you want, I’m ready to do it, but please keep my family from this. They are innocent.”“Shut up,” the other man snapped at me, looking irritated. It was like they were in a hurry to do something. The one pointing his gun at me flicked it upward. “Now listen to me, I want you to keep your mouth shut. One more word from you and I will shoot you in the head, you understand?”I nodded

  • Knots & Tie    My Fate is Uncertain

    Honey It felt like I had been in the car for a long time before I saw a hand reaching out to me from the other side of the car. I was carried out of the car. Relief flooded across my whole body like I was swept by the ocean at the thought that someone came to rescue me. I looked up to see the face of my savior, but my vision was blurred. I was taken to another car before I finally gave in to the darkness surrounding me. When I woke up, the first thing I felt was a sharp pain at the side of my head. I groaned, dragging my face along something cold. My head throbbed as pain rippled through my body. I opened my eyes and looked around my surroundings. My hands were cuffed to a pole and I was in a dark room filled with barrels and bottles, the only light sneaking into the room was from the closed windows. Even though I wasn’t able to see everything clearly, the room looked like an underground cellar. The whole thing that had happened prior to this moment flooded my mind and I whimper

  • Knots & Tie    Did He Just Kiss Me?

    “Lorenzo is very powerful and dangerous. Do you seriously think you can get him to work with you?!” I challenged him, looking at him like he was ridiculous. “Sorry to disappoint you, but Lorenzo isn’t scared of anything.” Hearing what he had just said made me realize Lorenzo wasn’t behind this. If he wasn’t, then why did this man bring me here?What does it want?His grip on my chin tightened, his fingers brushing along my bottom lip. “But he is scared of losing you, isn’t he?” He asked with a mysterious smile. I held his gaze, my eyes narrowing at him. Micheal dropped his hand from my chin and stood up, smiling down at me. “Well, we don’t need to be too tense around each other. I’m not like Lorenzo so I am not going to lock you up here. Pardon my men for treating you like this. They must have forgotten that you are a guest here,” he said, reaching down to my cuffed hands to remove the cuffs. He brushed his hand gently along my bruise ankles and pouted. “I can’t believe those idiot

    Honey. Joel had taken me to a lush room at the second floor of the mansion. He opened the door and waited for me to enter the room. “Here is the room you will be staying in. You can check around to see if it matches your taste.”I didn’t know why they were acting nice, but it was better than Lorenzo had ever treated me so I was thankful for that. I wandered around the room, taking in its beautiful outline and features, but my mind was occupied. I didn’t want to be here, I wanted to be with my family. I had no idea what could have happened after that explosion and I just prayed nothing bad had happened to them. Michael told me he had sent his men to look over their condition, I hope he brings good news. Maybe during the dinner, I could ask Michael to let me go and see them. Something told me he wouldn’t let me out of his sight until Lorenzo agreed to do whatever Michael wanted him to do. In other words, that meant Michael was using me as a pawn to lure Lorenzo into doing something. I

  • Knots & Tie    No, Sweetheart

    Honey.After I was satisfied with my choice of outfit for the night, I stepped out of my room and saw Joel standing outside by the door. I laughed as I asked him a funny question. “Are you my bodyguard or something?”“Something of sort,” he said.This was new. With Lorenzo he never had the need for me to have my own personal bodyguard. To be honest, if there was anything I needed protection from, that should be from Lorenzo himself. Everything about Michael felt so different, I was willing to learn more about him. Joel roamed his eyes along my body for a short time before adding. “You look good by the way.”“Thanks,” I said with a stiff smile. “Shall we?”“Yeah, let’s go,” Joel said with a quick nod. “Micheal has been waiting for you at the dining table.”“I hope he likes what I’m wearing for dinner.”“Every man will love what you are wearing tonight,” Joel assured me.I kind of feel safe around Joel. It was strange, I haven’t felt that way in a long time. “That’s good, I needed to

    20: Now Shoot.Honey.Seeing how scared I was, Michael stepped forward, narrowing his eyes down at Lorenzo. “I think you should leave now,” he said with a serious tone. Lorenzo smirked. He stood up and looked at me. “Don’t think he can save you.”A chill ran down my spine at his words. When Lorenzo walked out of the event hall, Michael looked at me. “What was that about?” I didn’t know if it was good to add Michael to what was happening so I decided not to fill him in on the details. “It is nothing,” I lied. Michael didn’t look convinced, but he didn’t force me to say the truth. Soon, the event hall got filled. People sat at different tables, enjoying the activities of the event. When it came for the announcement of the winner of the All Star Award,my breath was in my throat as I knew they were going to call my name. I watched as the Host slowly opened the card he was holding which contained the name of the winner for the event. “Ladies and gentlemen, the winner for the award Sta

    Honey.Tonight was the night of the All Star Award ceremony. Given how famous I became in a few months, an entertainment company came to film my preparation for the night event. I tried my best to look relaxed and excited for the show while being filmed, but the truth was that I wasn’t in any way relaxed. Tonight was the night everything will set in place. Michael had done all this so I would be able to get him easy access to the painting in Daniyi’s private museum, but what if I got caught?I didn’t even want to think about it. Michael walked into the dressing room after I had gotten dressed and was fully prepared for the show. He had designed the dressing room for me when he heard I was going to be filmed while preparing for the Award ceremony. While still checking myself out in the window, he came close and leaned close to me. “Do you remember everything I told you?”I became tense. I knew what he was asking about. He had told me to act like I wasn't certain I was going to win

    Lorenzo. Honey had moved on so fast. It had been just two months that she had been with Michael and now they were trending all over the media as a power couple. Everything about it infuriated me. I knew Honey was a slut, but I didn’t expect that bitch to throw herself to another man that easily after being taken away from me. You could have imagined my annoyance when I had gone to rescue her only to see another man's love bite on her neck. She didn’t even try to hide it, she was flaunting it like a fucking whore. I clenched my hands, watching her on my television in my living room. She was being filmed as she prepared for a late night award show. The All Star Award. Only big names in the entertainment industry get a chance to be nominated for that award. And in just two months of being with Michael, she got madly famous and was even nominated. I knew there was more to it. Honey was a good fuck, but even I knew a man like Michael wouldn’t pulled all those strings just to help Honey

    He sat up, laughing. “Don’t be so serious, it doesn’t suit you.”I adjusted my clothes, feeling more urged to leave. I picked up my purse and was about to walk out when the door to the private room opened and a stripper walked in, wearing only lingeries which barely covered her body. I narrowed my eyes as the stripper stepped on the stage at the center of the private room we were sitting in, she seemed not to be looking at us, only concentrating on giving us a show. It was hard to see her face as she was wearing a black face mask. The stripper brushed her hand slightly along the pole, taking slow steps around it before arching her back as she leaned on the pole seductively. I became even more uncomfortable when she started dancing around the pole. Occasionally, she would tease us by pulling at her lingeries, caressing her hands along her body or showing off her nice curves. She was good at her job, I wouldn’t deny that, but what got me standing still as I looked at her was how familia

    Honey.Today was hectic, I had five interviews in a span of eight hours. There had been more need to address the public and attend several occasions after my new album went viral and now that I was more famous and known to be dating one of LA most eligible bachelors, Micheal, the media had been going crazy. Although I loved the attention and the impact it was making in my music career, I just wanted my deal with Michael to come to an end as soon as possible. I hated the fact that he followed me everywhere, including places he wasn't even needed at.Right now, we were in his car driving back to his Villa. After all the activities of the day, I was tired and eager to lay down on my bed and rest. You could imagine my surprise when I noticed the car swerved from the usual route and took a u-turn to another direction. I sat up and frowned at Michael who was sitting beside me. “What’s going on?” I asked. “Why are we changing direction?”He leaned on his seat and shrugged. “I changed my min

  • Knots & Tie    Is Someone Forcing You?

    Honey We got to my family house not long after my parent and Amelia had gotten down from the taxi. Since none of us had been home since the incident, my mother had had some people decorate the whole house. My Father remained in the living room, looking in awe at the new interior design of the house. My mother squatted and hugged him. “Welcome home,” she said, her voice softened with affection. Seeing how much my parents loved each other, it wasn’t a surprise that I wanted a love as pure as theirs. But I seek it in the wrong man. I shook my head, dismissing Lorenzo from my thoughts. Today was about my family. Today was about celebrating the lives that Lorenzo wanted to destroy. I joined my mother in the hug. “I’m so glad that we are all here and alive.”Amelia didn’t join in the hug. She took the duffle bags she had carried from the hospital upstairs. When she came downstairs, we had broken the hug and were already prepping for lunch. Despite how much I had told Michael not to stay

  • Knots & Tie    She Better Be!

    I pressed my lips, thinking of what I could possibly say to convince Amelia that everything was alright. She had every right to be angry, she wasn’t just my manager, but also my childhood friend and one of my closest relatives. I shouldn’t have kept her in the dark, but what could I do? I couldn’t just get fed up with everything and blurt out to her that I was doing all this because I had been kidnapped twice and had agreed to help the Mafia in their heist. “Amelia, you don't understand,” I shook my head, begging that she notice that all this was beyond me. “I…”I fidgeted with my hands, thinking of what I could say to ease her suspicion. But nothing was coming to my head, the door leading the ward opened and Michael walked in, looking at me. “Are you ready?” He asked. “Your parents are already in the car.”“Which car?” I asked, fearing that Michael had led them to his car. I didn’t trust him around my parents.Amelia zipped up her bag and walked out, ignoring Michael’s presence. “

    Honey.Luckily, my Father went through with the surgery and it was considered to be successful. Although he couldn’t still walk on his own two feet, the doctors encouraged us that he would get better in due time. Just like the last time, Michael followed me to take my father home. He just got discharged and regardless of how busy I was due to the buzz of the new album I had just released, I couldn’t miss being here with my father especially at a time when he needed all the love he could get. Although everyone was relieved that my Father was getting better, they were all worried about me. When I announced to the Press that I was very ill to the point of stepping out of the public, I didn’t think about how my family would take the fake news. Of course, I wasn’t sick, but given I had said that, they were not going to believe me no matter how much I tried to tell them I was actually perfectly alright.“Oyin, you know you can tell me anything,” my mother had encouraged me. “Don’t think I

    Honey.Being a singer, I had always wanted to be famous. It was even at the top of the list of things I wanted to achieve in life so when Michael arranged a press conference for my return, you’d think I would be over the moon at the thought of how far the media will spread my name across the globe. But sitting in the green room, preparing to face the press, I felt different. Empty. No excitement. No anticipation. Nothing, but dread. And it was because I knew what Michael wanted out of all this. I knew why Michael was pulling all the strings to make sure that my name was on the lips of everyone. Plastered across all social media, promoted on billboards nationwide. He was helping me to become more famous, but it was coming with a price. One which I was going to pay by putting my life on the line.The door to the room opened and a young lady stepped in. Three days ago, Michael had assigned her as my new manager just right after he signed me into another Record Label. “Honey, the press
