~~paige~~

One year, it took me a whole year to seduce Raymond and make him mine. After so much hard work, after eliminating my best friend from the way. That bitch Elizabeth thinks she can take him away from me.

Well, I wasn't one to go down without a fight. War has just begun. And I never lose.

If only I could, I would strangle her right then and there. But unfortunately, people would know that I was the last person to see her and that might raise suspicions.

Making my way into my car I shut the door beside me. "Get me out of this place," I said to the driver who started the car immediately.

Suddenly my phone began to ring. My face twisted into a frown as I gazed upon the screen and noticed that it was him.

Sighing sharply, I answered the call pressing my phone against my ear."Hello Adam"

His voice shook. "Hello. Ms. Haven"

"One single mission and you couldn't complete it!" I scolded, my anger rising vehemently.

"I'm sorry Ms.Haven, I waited outside for her like you instructed.

    ~~DAMIEN~~Elizabeth became a different person after her accident. Hyperactive, Talkative, Sharp Mouthed, and most of all fearless. These qualities at first irritated me, but as time passed, I began to miss it...I missed her when she was around me. I wasn't accustomed to missing people,I was a man dedicated to his work, but all of a sudden, it felt like my heart was tearing to pieces when she was away, and even worse, when I found out that she was in good health. I wanted to protect her. And I still do. When I found out about her accident I rushed out of a meeting to see her. But I wasn't a doctor ,there wasn't much I could do. Seeing her in that state made me angry, angrier than I have ever felt, I needed to let out that anger. Now, who is the best to let out my anger on the person who caused it? Adam Terry, a twenty-four-year-old college dropout almost made me lose the woman who owns my heart. "No, please! She paid me to do it!" These words struck me like lightning. "What did y

    He was no longer the man I had fallen in love with. And I knew this from the day he and Paige made an attempt on my life. But hearing him speak about our relationship in this manner struck my heart like a knife. “Really? What happened?” I forced these words out of my mouth, each syllable slicing through my teeth. “She slowly fell out of love with me, she started fights out of nowhere, and finally, we broke up, on that day she stormed out in anger and that's when happened her accident”My fists clenched. What he had been telling people?My gaze seemed into his skin “No one deserves that”But really I was talking about me. He nodded, a soft chuckle escaping his lips. “It's fine, I'm over it” he slipped his hands into mine. “I thought I would never love another woman again until I met you.” He said softly. These words made me want to throw up on his face. But all I could do was smile. “You love me?”He nodded. “I just wish you would give me a chance to show you”‘I have, you just ha

    ~~DAMIEN~~She was hiding something, it was evident in the way her eyes darkened when Evelyn mentioned the flowers. But which flowers?“Elizabeth?” I said turning to face her. “Who gave you roses?”She shot Evelyn a sharp look, clearly avoiding my question.My expression turned serious. “Speak, Elizabeth,” I instructed firmly.She smiled, looking up at me. “Relax, Damien. They were from Paige, Raymond's assistant. She just wanted to make sure I was okay.” She smiled brightly, but I could tell it wasn't genuine.“Paige?” My brow raised. Why would she bring flowers after making an attempt on Elizabeth's life? Paige was a foe, not a friend, it seemed she knew from the looks in her eyes. I just wish she would talk to me about it. She nodded. “Yeah, Paige”“Why did you throw it out?” I interrogated, hoping to get something out of her. She paused. “I do not like roses”I sighed. She didn't trust me enough to tell me.“I will be right back,” I said, turning to leave. I need to find out wh

    My heart raced as his lips brushed mine; they were as soft as a baby's skin; his tight but gentle grip around my neck made me feel somewhat. I couldn't explain.“Don't start something you can't finish” he whispered against my lips. “Yes, Damien,” I managed to let out. He pulled away from me. “I will take a shower”I swallowed hard as I watched him turn away from me. His shoulders seemed broader, his muscles bigger, watching him made me feel..warm inside. “Can I come?” I asked. He turned to look at me surprised. I, too, had surprised myself.“Come where?” He asked his gaze at me in awe. I shook my head. “Nothing”He walked towards me, I could feel my heart racing rapidly against my chest with each step he took. Why did I have to say that?He was blunt, his expression more serious than ever. “Do you want to have a shower with me?” My whole body quivered at his bluntness. My sensitive areas pulsated, dripping wet. Why did I feel this way about him? He pushed forward, closing the

    ~~Vanessa~~Have you ever heard of the phrase ‘Walk of shame?’I learned this phrase from Paige years ago. When a woman has a one-night stand with a man and then escapes in the morning before he wakes up? That walk back home is a walk of shame. Every year on February fifteenth after Valentine's Day. The both of us sit by my window, a cup of popcorn in both our hands and we watch women do the walk of shame back home and even sometimes men. We both laughed so hard each time, but today….I'm in their shoes. Damien and I didn't have sex, but after giving him a blowjob, he carried me into his bed and touched me until I couldn't take it anymore. I fell asleep in his arms.My moans seemed to do something to him. He got aggressive along the way, and now my underwear is ripped on the floor, my brazier at one end of the room, and my clothes at the other. Unfortunately, I couldn't do the walk of shame because we lived in the same house. And in the meantime, he is in the same room until his fat

    ~~DAMIEN~~It was a thirty-five-minute drive to the bar. Immediately the car parked I rushed in, my eyes searching the place for her. “Mr.Davenport?” A middle-aged brunette lady with an approach around her waist asked as she approached me. “Are you the woman who called?”I asked. She nodded. There was a loud cheering at the other end of the bar. I rushed towards the sound, my eyes widening in awe as I beheld her. Loud music played in the background. She stood on top of a counter topless, gobbling down alcohol as men changed around her. Her beautiful brown hair was tied up in a messy bun. I chuckled. A really messy bun. She seemed to be enjoying herself. “Who wants to see me drink alcohol, upside down!” She shouted and the men changed even louder. Quickly, I rushed to her, pulling her off the table. She stumbled, trying to stand steady, but she was already under the influence. She gazed at me, her eyes barely open. “Who are you!?” She shouted, grabbing onto my shirt for suppor

    ~~Melisa~~I hated her, I hated her more and more each day, and suddenly, it felt like I couldn't do anything about it. I was going crazy."Elizabeth..." I groaned, getting off the bed. She had him wrapped around her little finger, and that broke me. For years, I thought he was mine to have, until recently.My head kept reeling back to that moment - the moment I realized I had lost him forever. It was the day we left London. I found out Elizabeth had gone ahead of us, but my happiness was short-lived.I shrieked in excitement, wrapping my arms around his as we alighted the plane. "Would you like to have a drink together later?" I had high hopes.He said nothing, pulling his arm away from me. And all through the ride back home, he ignored me while making one phone call after another, which was a usual thing. Except it wasn't a business call.He called her driver to make sure she got home safe. He called his housekeepers to make sure she ate and got tucked into bed.My heart sank as I wa

    ~~Vanessa ~~I slid into the bathtub, the warm water brushing softly against my skin. I shut my eyes in an attempt to relax, but it didn't work, and I hated it. Why couldn't I get my mind off this man? Why did I care that he wouldn't talk to me? Why did it hurt that he was with another woman and I didn't know why? Was I…in love with him?I shrugged my shoulders. Of course not. I couldn't be. He was in love with another. Alex. Her name rang in my head. Suddenly the bedroom door flung open and shut with a loud thud. My eyes sprang open. Damien was back? Immediately, I dashed out of the bathroom rushing into the bedroom to see him. My feet screeched to an immediate halt as I beheld the man in front of me; this wasn't Damien; he was a strange man clad in a pair of black suit pants and a black button-up shirt. “Who are you!?” I yelled, wrapping myself up with my arms.He spun around, his head bowed. “I'm Harry”My brow furrowed. “Harry? Harry who?”“I'm Damien older brother”I paused m

    “Vanessa, please,” I begged, gently pulling away from her grasp.As I approached the door, something struck me from behind. I froze. Slowly, I turned to see her shoe on the ground. My head sprang up to look at her, my brows knitting together.“Did you just throw your shoe at me?”She sobbed. “Yes, what do you have to do? Do you want to hit her? Give her more reasons to lock you up?”She breathed shakingly. “It's our wedding night Damien, we should be together, so don't walk out on me”My jaw clenched as I approached her. She immediately took a step back, fear flickering in her eyes. .“What are you doing?” She ran across the room. “Are you angry? I'm sorry” She begged. As I drew closer, she took off her other shoe, throwing it at me, but I caught it. “Stop!” She cried covering her face.“Ouch, Vanessa, did you think I was going to hurt you?” I asked, pulling her hands away from her face. She looked at me, her eyes still wet from tears.“You are not?”My jaw tightened even more, my g

    As the nurse led me to Katherine's room in the hospital my fists clenched. I have not seen her in years. She must have changed a lot, but still carrying a grudge from years ago?Sigh. “In here, sir,” The nurse said, reaching for the door. “Stop”She paused, turning to look at me. “Leave, I want to go in alone” I instructed. She nodded, turning to leave. My fists loosened as I reached for the door. I exhaled sharply and pulled it open. “Katherine,” I muttered as My gaze caught her lying on the bed. Her gaze shifted to me, her eyes widening in surprise. “Well, this is a surprise,” She groaned, sitting up on her bed. “I knew you would come running to save your son but I didn't know you would come here so soon”“Katherine,” I said, walking towards her. “What do you think you are doing to my family?Her jaw clenched. “Your family?” She scoffed. “Soon, there will be no one for you to call family, and I will end you!” She snapped.

    My breathing grew ragged as Harry explained everything. “Dad, are you still there?” He asked. “Dad?”“I will be in America as soon as I can; call somebody to get my son out of prison; we are rich, goddammit! Use it!”I yelled, hanging up immediately. “George!” I yelled. My eyes searched frantically.“Yes sir?!” He responded almost immediately. “Prepare my plane, we are going to America” I Instructed. My children are suffering because of my past mistakes. I covered my face in shame. What a bad father I was. I needed to find Katherine and settle things between us before it got out of hand. ~~Vanessa~~I sat in the bathtub filled with water. My eyes closed as I thought about Damien. I wish I could be there with him. My eyes shot open as I heard the bedroom door open. “Who is there?” I asked but no response followed. “Harry?” I called again.Suddenly, the bathroom door pulled open, and Damien stepped in. Damien?!Without asking any questions, I jumped out of the bathroom, rushin

    ~~Wayne~~A FEW HOURS AGO. As I drove to Damien's company, I got a call from my mother, and I picked up immediately. “Hello, Mother,” I said, immediately picking up. “Are you out of the hospital yet?” She asked. “Yes, Mother,” I said, my back still twitching with pain.“Good, Make sure you come into the office with Damien, I need everything to be perfect”My hands tightened around the wheel “Do you have to get stabbed for this to work, Mother?”“Yes,” She responded curtly. “I won't die as long as you do your part. “Understand?”I nodded. “Yes, Mother”PRESENT TIME~~Vanessa~~“What does this look like?” I asked standing in front of a mirror as I tried on wedding dresses. “Beautiful” Alex responded in awe. “Yes but former or latter?” I asked spinning to see the back. “It depends, do you want to look beautiful?

    “Yes,.murder” She responded, her voice steady.As I opened my mouth to speak she cut in. “I will leave you to rest.” With that she walked out of the office, the room shutting the door behind her. “Murder?”~~Vanessa~~I lay in bed, wrapped up in a blanket, as my mind reeled with thoughts. How did my life get like this? I was a complete mess and I knew it. I heard footsteps approach the room; excited, I jumped out of bed. “Damien?” I said pulling the door open. He smiled weakly at me. “How did you know it was me?”“You are the only one who comes up here,” I said, wrapping my hand around him in a tight hug. He lifted me up in his arms. Wrapping my legs around him. “How is Wayne?” I asked her and walked into the room, placing me carefully on the bed. “Vanessa” He breathed against my lips, his eyes searching mine. “How are you?”“I'm fine, Damien; I have to be,” he pushed me, causing my back to lay flat on the bed, and climbed onto me. “Are you scared?” He asked.“Raymond doesn't s

    ~~Katherine~~My stomach tightened as Harry approached us. He looked exactly like Zane. Or was I tweaking? Zane was just three when I lost him. My heart raced faster as Harry's sharp gaze shifted to me. “Who is this?” He asked.“Oh, this is…” Vanessa's voice trailed off. She turned to look at me. “I'm sorry, what was your name again?”I swallowed hard.“Katherine” I managed to let out, my voice barely above a whisper. “My name is Katherine”“Ah, Katherine,” Vanessa said. “She is going to stay with us until her car is fixed. Vanessa explained. Harry nodded, turning to face Damien. “Can we talk?”“Of course, brother, what is it about?” “Follow me,” Harry said, turning to walk off. Damien turned to face Vanessa. “Do not leave the house,” he instructed before turning to follow his brother. I swallowed hard. Could it be Zane? My mind flashed back to twenty-seven years ago. It was racing violently and my twins Zane and Wayne were playing in the living room. But suddenly Wayne runs to

    “Stay in the hospital for a while,” My mother instructed. My brow creased. “What?” I muttered. “Make her feel obligated to take care of you when she does that, she will feel a bond to you, the man who took a bullet for her, and then you can't get close to Damien remember the plan and stick to it Wayne, make it look real”I exhaled sharply. “Of course Mother”“Do not disappoint me, Wayne,” “Yes, Mother,” But before I could say anything more before I could finish, the line went flat. I clenched my phone tightly. In my hands, anger boiling inside of me, I threw it across the room. I didn't care about the Davenport family. Did they abandon my pregnant mother years ago? So what? We are thriving without them; only my mother cares for revenge, and I'm tired; I just want her to love me. Is that too much to ask?~~Vanessa~~Damien rented out an entire restaurant opposite the hospital. “Damien, you shouldn't have done this; other people need to eat, too,” I said pretending that I was

    A rugged smirk formed on Raymond's lips. The sound of police sirens filled the air and immediately, he dashed off. I looked to my left and saw the ambulance arrived. “Thank God!” I gasped. Two of them rushed in with a stretcher in their hand. “I am over here!” I cried. They rushed towards me and I quickly pulled away from Wayne to let them do their job. “Vanessa!” Damien growled, rushing into the place. My head turned to see him, his eyes searching frantically for me. “Damien?” I yelled rushing towards him. He wrapped me up in a tight hug, his hug telling me words that his mouth couldn't say. “Blood,” he said, his voice barely audible as he pulled away to look at my hands. “It's Wayne's blood,” I said quickly. I turned to see Wayne being rolled out of a stretcher. “It was my fault,” I said, throat dry. Damien's hand squeezed mine tightly. “No, it's not”I quickly shook my head. “No” I gasped. “I saw him.
