Bella drove up to the heavily guarded Jade residential area. Stopping by the gate, she couldn't be allowed in, simply because they didn't have a resident going by that name. Bella sat back at the car as she scratched her head.

Was it really true that he had nothing at all? Was he only after scamming her? How would she live with herself after all these.

Bella decided to make a call to two of her friends. She had traced Jerome's location to a high end pub in the city. In less than an hour, Bella had been dressed like the party animal she was, wearing heavy makeup, mostly to hide her true identity, with long fake eyelashes, red lipstick and her hair let loose covering half of her face, she was unrecognisable.

That was how she had survived in the world away from social media gossip.

Accompanied by her best friends Frida and Britney, Bella's eyes scanned through the club and easily spotted Jerome in the company of his usual friends. Bella was thankful that he wasn't the type to cheat on her

    Two days later, Zia bade bye to her sister and friend who had become part of her family now, Zippy. It had had been the most fulfilling days of her life, having genuine family that cared about her.A private chopper was already waiting close by. Carlos had chosen not to use millitary chopper at such a time, but treat his girl for once." Are you ready love?" Carlos asked seated on the pilot's seat with Zia on the copilot seat." I'm more than ready Carlos, let's get flying," Zia said before she had screamed. Carlos glanced around at her high spirit and hoped that everything would turn out nicely as he had expected.They had flown for close to two hours when they had arrived at an undisclosed location. A small green Island could be seen in a distance." How did you find this place? It's so out of nowhere," Zia exclaimed as they came closer having a perfect view of the beautiful island, the white long beach evident from way up." Recently I had been on the hunt to find an island perfec

  • Lethal Beauty    The bachelorette's party

    Arriving at Vira island almost at midnight, Vida slowly made her way into the mansion that stood beautifully on the raised ground. Her life was gloomy compared to the hundred lights that illuminated the entire island.Casper just informed her about a couple that had paid millions of dollars just to spend three nights at the island. Elvira had no appetite even as the maids had prepared her a scrumptious meal. She strode along the beaches , loneliness getting a toll on her. At twenty eight she had nothing to show of. Her love obsession with the general, a man she didn't even know his actual name.Come to think of it, Elvira laughed at herself. How come she had never researched about the general. Surely he had to be in the media or over the interest. Maybe she had just wanted it to come from him, confirm to her that he truly cared about her, but no, he didn't want anything to do with her. She gave herself to him, lost her pride in life, yet still ended up with nothing but a yearning, to

    " Bella please, could we talk. If it's about the other day at the party, I'm truly sorry. Our wedding is just the day after tomorrow," Jerome said desperately." Can't you see I'm here to enjoy my last days of being single. Look up for me tomorrow. Maybe we could talk," Bella said.It was at that moment that Melissa arrived and held up her sister who was already tipsy and standing unsteadily." Hi Jerome, I think Bella had a little too much to drink, let me escort her to her room to have rest," Melissa said as she took the glass from Bella's fingers and dropped it on the table before she had wound Bella's hands around her neck.Moving a few steps, Bella broke herself loose and ran over to the DJ and picked up the microphone. She called to everyone's attention. " Guys, welcome all to my party. As you can see, it's time to let loose, and merry, dance and do all the crazy stuff you could ever think of , supporting me in this step I'm about to take.I must confess that I'm excited and af

    " Leon," Bella found herself whispering his name.He took a step forward." I never thought you would remember my name, after all these years," Leon said with a smirk, a sinister smile forming on his face." Huh!" Bella was shocked. What the hell was he talking about?." So you really forgot about me Ella," Leon said painfully.Bella opened and closed her mouth lacking words to say. There was no way it was the same Leon from years ago. Her childhood friend, the one she barely had his image on her head. The only one who called her Ella. She remembered it perfectly now, their little promise." You didn't keep your promise to me Ella. I waited, at thirty, but you never remembered at all. You are going to marry someone else, yet here I am, waiting on you patiently," Leon said. " What am I to do with you my little Ella," Leon said in a deep voice. There was only a little space left between them with their bodies almost touching.Bella swallowed a lump in her throat. Her body suddenly fel

    Elvira headed straight for the dining area where the table had been filled with several delicacies. Her stomach rumbled especially after she hadn't eaten a thing since the previous day. She had just sat down when the quiet house was suddenly filled with a woman's laughter. She turned around, a berry in her hand had almost dropped seeing who it was.Zia made an abrupt halt seeing who was at the other end, prompting Carlos to do the same. His brow creased, clearly he never thought that this would happen.Zia glanced up at her boyfriend and noticed that he had been shocked as well. Not wanting to show her obvious disappointment, Zia held onto Carlos' arm tightly and headed for the dining table, a plastic smile plastered on her face." What a nice surprise Elvira,"Zia said as she sat on the chair Carlos had drawn for her. The two ladies hadn't been best of friends or enemies, but the fact that Carlos had told her about the supposed thing they had in the past made her dislike her. Infact Z

    Back at the island, Carlos had insisted that Zia take some moments to lie down, but she couldn't agree till he had accompanied her. With the opportunity to relax in the afternoon, the two had fallen fast asleep. Carlos however couldn't stay on bed too long, highly unlikely of him. As a soldier he had spent countless nights awake, a little change in his routine was exhausting.And so Carlos had worn his short and a vest a walked out in the warm sun. He had tried fishing on the waters and caught but a few fish. He had rushed to the mansion with a view of preparing the fresh fish for his soon to be wife when a slight sob reached his ears as he passed through one of the doors.With the fish hanging on a string in his hand, Carlos had knocked on the door but there wasn't an answer.Slowly he pushed the door opened and glanced around at the empty room. He was surprised seeing no one. He made a step back when the voice came clearly to him now. He glanced through the transparent curtains and

    At Arizona, Bella and Leon got out of the room almost at midday. The entire mansion was quiet except for Melissa's voice that came from the living room on the ground floor.The two held hands even as they walked down the stairs. Getrude was sitting uneasily on the couch. The moment she spotted Bella she had almost leapt off the chair." What's the meaning of this Bella? What have you done, and who is this?" Getrude asked fuming in anger." Relax mom, no need to be alarmed," Bella said as she descended the stairs slowly. Her body ached, her private part still painful from the ordeal,but she had the mask it all so that it wouldn't be evident to everyone, yet again, everyone already knew about it.Melissa said quietly by the side. Justin had been looking for a way out especially with Getrude's arrival. Finding a relief, he had gestured Melissa before rushing out of the room." Are you kidding with me right now Bella. You create all this mess and act as though it were normal. Weren't you

Sad, she had gone up to her room to rest.The maids had tried to talk to her, but she had seemed so lost and had decided not to disturb her till later on when she would feel better.Lying on the bed, Drusilla picked up her mobile to call Elvira when a sound in the room startled her. Glancing around, no one was present. At the same time Elvira's mobile was ringing.However the blowing up of the curtains caught her attention before she dropped the phone on the bed. Getting up to close the windows, something suddenly caught her by the throat, blocking her mouth tightly with the strong hands so that not a single sound escaped her lips." Not a single sound, or I'll just twist your head right this moment," the voice warned.Drusilla felt terrified as she fought to breathe. She had bit off the finger slightly and i

  • Lethal Beauty    Final episode

    Carlos walked back to the room after ensuring that Zia is safely tucked in bed.She walked over to Getrude who sat dejectedly on the couch. She glanced up at him once before staring into space." Ma'am, just know that I'm aware of how you are feeling right now, but your daughter is all grown up now. All you can do is support her as she tries to find her way in this world," " Actually, she is just too young to handle everything, but somehow she's been exceptional at everything. The few mistakes, the frustrations she is feeling is all part of her growing up. I'm sure if you just listened to her, you might have the perfect relationship," Carlos said. He was so polite and cool. The dreadful side of him seem to disappear whenever he was with Zia, and now that he had in laws, he had to act to his best." Please take care of my daughter. I know I'm not the best mother, but I tried to make everyone happy, only to destroy my daughter's life. I hope she can be happy with you and the little fam

    Zia was slowly closing her eyes as Carlos carried her bridal style headed upstairs into her room.Halfway through the stairs, Carlos glanced down at his future mother in law." Ma'am, I would suggest that you give Zia sometime alone. I'll talk to her. This isn't the right time for her to get upset," Carlos said and didn't wait for her response before he disappeared upstairs.Getrude sat to the ground dejectedly. She glanced up at Zippy and gave her a dirty look. Just how could the two have possibly met?" Zippy..." Alvin started.Zippy threw her hands in the air dismissing him. She then headed for the stairs.The maids had left too, just Getrude and Alvin remained in the living room." Mother... didn't we agree that you won't meddle into Zia's life, why not let her get used to this life of hers," Alvin said." Can't you see that your sister has taken a lot of responsibility for herself. She is just twenty years old, I need to speak some sense into her head." Getrude said as she adjus

She had decided to have Carlos stay over at her apartment, and she had to promise to always return to him, else he would follow her to the mansion.Zia smiled at herself, life was finally taking shape.With her train of guards, she was driven home. She breathed a sigh of relief enjoying the sweet evening breeze, the all too familiar air she had enjoyed almost all her life.Zia spotted Salma by the shade just few steps away from the house on the well trimmed green and soft grass.Salma ran over to her at once and hugged her tightly. " You finally back siz," Salma said, her voice filled with emotions." Of course dear, this is our home, I would already go back here," Zia said." Wait, why are you that sad? Did you miss me so much?" Zia asked." I did miss you Zia, and I'm happy that you are finally here," Salma said." I'm glad that you feel happy with me around.

    At the warehouse in the middle of the little forest miles off the city, five men were pushed inside a cold empty room, their hands cuffed before the door was sealed after them.Outside the building, several soldiers were on guard. The captive was a renowned mafia leader and he might have a backup plan. Everything had been sound proof, and there wasn't any room for escape.Inside the car, the general sat quietly as he admired the sleeping beauty beside him. He slowly trailed his fingers along her face. He had missed her tremendously. She was just too stubborn, but his heart swelled even more with love.Since her childhood days , he had loved how mature and reasonable she had always been, yet now she seemed to want to act like a child. Carlos knew that she had gone through a lot, more than what a girl her age should experience. From the big business empire that she had expanded greatly, to the extended family she had to deal with. And now that she was carrying their baby, she needed a

  • Lethal Beauty    Costa gets killed

    The general cursed loudly before he moved out of his hiding spot, several feet away from the battle field. He had better get it over as soon as possible before the gang called for back up. He aimed directly at the men dressed in black, their bodies dropped dead at every shot. The team had taken a moment back to watch the two battle it out, the general and Zia, fighting to finish off as many enemies as possible.Beside the armoured van, Costa shielded Elvira with his body, firing his gun at intervals. He could feel just how frightened she was, her body shaking uncontrollably. For the first time in his life Costa felt fear, and fear was something unacceptable in his life. His unborn child was at risk, all their lives at risk. He should have listened to his brother.Costa glanced at Dela who was firing back, his back turned against the two. He was always the reasonable one here, but he had always put up with his demands, however how dangerous they had been." When are they arriving?' D

    The two had locked once again in a fight, Brenda pulling off Getrude's hair so that she yelled painfully. Getrude couldn't win against Brenda, having known hardship all her life compared to the soft life Getrude lived.She had needed up Getrude's hair with her eating falling off to the ground.Carmen and the maids had rushed forward to separate them. It wasn't until Nicko rushed in that he was able to separate the two women." Are you mad woman,why are you still fighting me for your husband? Didn't I let him go several years ago. Can't you accept that you failed to keep your man, that even as we speak he couldn't get back to you," Getrude yelled as she straightened her messed up hair and her clothes that had been wrinkled.She picked up her handbag that lay on the ground before she turned back at Brenda who was still breathing hard, almost as though not satisfied with the fight they just had." You and your filthy family should get out of my daughter's house, I can let people like you

  • Lethal Beauty    Lunch date

    It was already thirty minutes past two in the afternoon. Zippy stretched herself in the CEO chair as she swang around. Her neck arched, her eyes teary from glancing down at the many paper work Zia had her do for her. If that was the kind of work one had to do for the lifestyle Zia lived, then it wouldn't be so easy for her.A knock at the door broke her out of her thoughts. She shouted for whoever it was to get in, she was annoyed thinking that it was the same secretary handing her more work to do. With her back turned against the door, she waited till the footsteps got closer to the desk." Do drop them on the table," Zippy said dismissing him with her hands. She let out an exhausted sigh as she leaned back on the chair, crossing her leg on the other so that her thighs remained visible through her high plit dress.She waited to hear the door close, but it seemed the guy had just refused to go." Do you need anything else Felix?" Zippy's exhausted tone came through. Yet there wasn't

    " You ailing?" Costa asked after he had cleared his throat. He glanced at her with his dark specs, and Elvira couldn't tell his expression. But he looked like a deadly sin. Both his hands in his trouser pockets, his hair brushed neatly to the back. His twin Dela had the same pose and Elvira felt herself lost just in admiring them.For anyone it could be hard to identify between the two guys, but Elvira had done that easily. While Costa had a air of pride and arrogance around him, Dela was just unfathomable, his expression cold, almost unreadable. It seemed everything around him was too bothersome and he couldn't wait to get over with whatever it was. Even as Costa took a step in, he stood by the door, almost as though he wanted to escape unnoticed." I wouldn't put it that way," Elvira replied." Oh..so what's wrong with you then? Costa asked." Apparently I'm pregnant. Silly isn't it. I just had to be pregnant after what I consider rape. I don't even know who the father is," Elvira

    Zia woke up excited more than ever. She felt strange, as though her life's desires had finally been met. The feeling was still fresh, or maybe the dream she had with Carlos,he had given her the kind of peace she desired. She had wished for the dream to never end. So Zia had glanced around at the empty room. She suddenly felt sad. Her life should be moving forward, but she was back to where she had been, more than two years ago, pregnant and alone. Her life should be perfect now, enjoying it with the love of her life.A thought occurred to her. She shouldn't suffer nor Carlos because of others people's mistakes. With that she had sprang up from the bed and retrieved her mobile. She dialled Carlo's number which rang twice with no response. She scratched her head unable to understand what was going on. Carlos never assumed her calls.Zia decided to get into the shower, maybe make a call to him later on.Once in the shower she heard her mobile ring. Thinking it was Carlos, she had rushe
