Lipsticks and guns (Book 1 in the lipstick series) Chapter 029|A mole
Chapter 029|A moleMama Ronke was their coverup. She was the daughter of one of the founding fathers of the Natives and according to her enjoyed the peace of the rural area. Always said that the city was not for her. Building a warehouse underneath her house was a suggestion that she had made when the problem of safety regarding their newly purchased goods which were priceless had come up and hence an underground warehouse was made. "The first attack didn't look like an accident either. The second too. How did they know a fire alarm was inside the house. The building is complex, how did they know how to get in and out without being seen?" Her eyes widened as they both looked at each other. "So you think?" He nodded. "We have a mole."***Uncle Chidi and Kehinde gaped at them after their rambling. Jasmine's face was flushed from their discovery and Chuck's eyes shone with nervous excitement. "If this is true, you know what that means?' Jasmine nodded at Chidi. "S

Chapter 030|Family"What next huh? What?" She muttered and in that second she could hear her uncle's voice, it caressed her body and penetrated her heart.___________Flashback___________She hit the punching bag again, again and again. "Come on Jasmine, give it a side jab, be firmer, again. Nice one." She sat down on the ground her frail 10 years old body giving out. "This isn't fair." She mumbled breathlessly. He walks towards her, "Stand up Jasmine, Nobody cares about what is fair anymore. Life and a lot of shit ain't fair but that doesn't mean you just give up." She frowned at him confused. "Nobody Jasmine, Nobody gives a shit about you. If you end up screwed or killed, nobody really cares. If they cry it is because there is something you do for them that they will have to struggle to find another person to do it for them. It is about mutual benefit Jas." She shook her head. "That is a sad way to look at life." "Reality is sad, kiddo. Nobody gat you for real exce

Chapter 031|Imperfect yet beautifulShe schooled her expression not to reveal anything as she nodded at him to continue. "I... It has been going on for some time now... Like I realized I love her recently but I don't know if she is into me like that, you know?" She nodded even though she had no idea what he was rambling about. "Never been in love Mark. Can tell you how to use a gun but I'm certainly not a love coach. I can't help you at all." He rubbed his face with his hand. "The thing is, whenever I decide to talk to her and ... I just get speechless you know. I can't produce a single word, tongue-tied and..." Chucks snickered behind them. "You both are the most clueless people I have ever seen. Maryann and yourself, just tell the girl already you have it bad for her and she will be willing to leave her family name and say vows she doesn't understand in a split second." Jasmine's eyes widened at the realization that he was actually in love with Maryann, "She has it t

Chapter 032|Symbolises everything forbidden "You should taste the cookies and tell me what you think already." She grinned as he passed her one of them watching her as she took a big bite and then moaned in appreciation. "At this rate, you'll make a great pastry chef. You should open up a little shop already since it is getting difficult for me to finish all of this especially since you don't eat them which is such a pity anyway," she had a mocking grin on her face as she took another cookies while he cleaned and entertained her ranting on how he'll have to wear a silly little apron and get a bell when he begins his pastry shop. An idea she was very much infatuated with talking about since it gave her all the luxuries of painting out a silly picture of him in her head. "Why didn't you get married?" He was putting the utensils he had used into the dishwasher when she asked him that question and he groaned accepting that he should have known better than believing that J

Chapter 033|ObsessedHe called one of the assistants via the telephone asking her to send him his schedule via mail not sure he can bear to see another person that was not Jasmine. The whole time, he spent his day complaining and comparing Jasmine's efficiency to theirs, how slow it was for them to get any work Jasmine gets done in seconds, done in minutes. And realising how slow a workday could actually be, without glancing at her longingly from his office, without getting a snarky or sharp comeback from her, without watching her grin wickedly or her eyes glimmer sharply as she tried to memorize every instruction, write down every request. By the end of the day as he walked back to his car more grumpy than usual he was beginning to realize how dependent he has become on Jasmine and now, he practically can't operate without her. Half of His appointments were rescheduled because of how behind the clock he was and paperworks were scattered around his table, which was normally n

Chapter 034|Be the good guy In his black crazy jeans, his casual white shirt and the cap donned on his head, he looked pretty much like a normal guy. He still made heads turn but it was because of how good-looking he was, no hint that he was the Governor. Nothing gave him away. With their hands clasped like they were a couple, they passed a bean cake vendor. It was evening, some boys were playing football but without an actual ball, a Milo container served the purpose. The laughter and the sound of the jiggling container as they all tried to get the object into their possession with such fierce fervour made Jasmine wonder, what her life would have been like if she had such a stress free childhood. Yes, the environment was not ideal, she could see the worn-out unkempt state of the children but still, she could see the great joy such mundane, frivolous activity brought to them. She peered into Taiwo's eyes hating how easy it was becoming to pretend that she was just a no

Chapter 035|Would he ever get enough of her? "Jesus.." he harshly exhaled, as she placed her hand teasingly over his cock again. She chuckled, "Just me," then impatiently tugged both his trousers and boxer briefs in one tug, his cock springing to attention, all hard. "Turn around and put your hands together, behind your back." He gruffly ordered. Nervous excitement and anticipation, made her shiver as she did as he asked and let him wrap his leather strap around her wrist until her hands were secured at the back of her spine. She felt so vulnerable, she felt the intimate connection in just that one act, as it felt like she was giving him just more than a blow job, he was also taking her trust too, asking her to believe he could completely overpower her senses and still make sure she was safe, but instead of fright at what she had handed to him, she felt her pant becoming even more moist, liquid escaping her pants and trickling down her thighs. "On your knees," his voic

Chapter 036|Jealousy"Fourth, stated that we needed to have more trust in each other and more love, now this is not a thesis that needs deployment of security but people, not men of the Native but humans with one heartbeat. Seems non-important but the most essential part. I need to love you, I need to understand it is either you or you. No choice. No alternative. In the true sense, we need to understand that the Native is me and I am the Native." She paused then pointed at the last paper stuck to the board. Ironically, it was written on a red cardboard piece of paper. "Kill Taiwo." She flicked her hair which was cooperating so much recently and was lapped to the side, a generous amount of curls framing her face, her eyes still burning with the passion of spilling Taiwo's blood, a detail that calmed Chucks. "I will be taking care of this soon."***She nodded at Rhoda, the receptionist of the coffee shop she just entered though apprehensive, as she saw a hint of Mark's familiar w

Lipsticks and guns (Book 1 in the lipstick series) Chapter 072|Goodbye
Chapter 072|GoodbyeJasmine smiled uneasily at the unfamiliar faces she met in what looked like a frat-house dormitory, who looked nothing like normal school children if their moustache was anything to go by. Deciding not to raise alarm until she has confirmed Chucks was fine and well, she followed one of the acne faced teenagers that had found her at the gate of the boarding school, confused and worried as to why the school administration denied being aware of anybody like Chucks in their school, and had told her he knew where Chucks was while making a mental note to hit her speed dial and call on one of her security guards if she suspected any foul play.She cringed at the torn dirty curtain while clutching her purse closer to her as she stepped into the dimly-lit sitting room.She all but leapt to where Chucks sat, her face glowing with pure joy but stopped when she got to where he was.“What are you doing here?” she narrowed her gaze at Kehinde who just walked into the room and th

"Be careful of what you choose to tell me, Taiwo else I promise you I would blow my brains right away and you'll have to live with the guilt that you're the reason why I'm dead." "Why are you doing this, Jasmine?" "Because you won't tell me the truth if I don't so the clock is ticking, Taiwo. Did you know?" Both their gaze clashed in the room as she placed her finger threateningly on the trigger. 5 days ago Jasmine smiled as Taiwo held onto her even with his eyes closed as she tried to slip out of his bed. “Stay,” he huskily mumbled into her ear making her groan as she wondered how a girl was supposed to say no to such a sexy throaty bedroom voice that turned her brains to mush. “You don’t play fair,” she complained pouting even as his arms wound around her waist and lined her back against his groin so she felt his erection and moaned. “And so tempting but sadly I would have

Chapter 070|Home to her "Love is knowing that the person you have that feeling for just might not be perfect, learning the ugly, the messy, the heartbreaking, the scandalous and still not able to feel differently about that same person." Her breath hitched as she told herself again and again not to have hope, not to get all excited. Not to think he was talking about her, them. "The picture of the butterfly, I can't look at it now without remembering your own crazy interpretation. It hurts so much." Her eyes met his. "So you brought it down?" She asked because that was the right, sanest thing to do unlike her who had made an unhealthy habit of strolling around Surulere like a psycho, her legs digging into the mud and her eyes welling with tears. "Yes, I removed it off the wall." Then he stood up, watching her expression as he walked towards her while she just stared. "I took it upstairs, just opposite my bed, so it was the first thing I saw when I woke up and the last when

"How are you doing?" Jasmine smiled a bit as she walked out of the threshold allowing him to walk in. "Good." He held her hand and she shrugged it off. "You have 5 minutes to say whatever you have to say. Like I told you before we have nothing to talk about but if you must take my time and yours make it snappy." He nodded and realising how easily he had made everything intense, he looked away, his eyes now on the wallpaper She wanted to kiss the frown off his face, take off his jacket and tell him just how much she missed with and how surreal it feels to have him in her house, with her but she didn't. She just stared coldly at him, taking a seat adjacent to his thankfully for once sticking to her rationality and not getting her hopes up. For all she knew, he just

"Nothing feels the same without you anymore." "This is the best decision for everyone, trust me." "Is it? The team is moving, I mean the only home you truly know, your memories with Sir Young resides there, your short but helluva impressive speeches were made in the courtyard of those homes and everything you truly hold dear is in there and I'm being whisked off to a boarding school? And you think that is the best thing?" "Sir Young would always say that home is not a place but in here," she touched the right side of her chest. "That's why wherever you go and whatever you do, it doesn't change how and what I think of you. You'll always be home to me, I'll choose you again and again and again if need be because that's what family would do." "Do you think Sir Young would have approved if he was alive?" "He w

You can't do that for her, she has to make that decision herself besides don't be too sure you still have a woman waiting for you to come to your senses at whatever pace convenient to you." He shook his head amused. "Besides even if she wants to leave all she has known all her life because of you, your track record of being an ass only makes her truly foolish at decision making just like you. Of all the girls in the world Taiwo, you just had to fall for the leader of an outfit. Classical." And then he was walking out leaving Taiwo behind with a goofy grin that soon transformed into a panic-stricken one as he immediately reach for his phone.***She flipped through the tabloids she had bought down the road against her better judgement, Taiwo's picture splashed on the front cover the only thing she cared

Chapter 066|A criminal"How is Jasmine?" Taiwo's steel like gaze was set on the blank wall as he clenched his jaw not knowing what Bayo was playing at but not currently in the mood to deal with it. Going to work every day was tough enough, just gaping at Jasmine's cubicle which was still untouched like a total loser and taking it out on his assistants and work made him completely drained, angry and tired? He didn't want to deal with discussing her, he didn't want to open his mouth and say her name because then the pain in his heart would feel real, and with reality comes fear. He was stricken with fright that he just might never be able to hear that name again without feeling his insides squeezing. "Last I heard about her, she was fine." He managed to say in a tone that suggested he was both uninterested and not willing to discuss Jasmine. "Why have you only been hearing about her and not from her?" He scoffed, giving Bayo a disbelieving glare and sighing, he walks to

He ordered, opening her bag and placing a filled leaflet of a chequebook to her and stands up expecting her to hurriedly leave but he was taken aback by her voice. "Why?" None of them ever speak to him. Ever. It was precise and spelt out. Sex. Money. Nothing in-between. And he regretted not sticking to that routine with Jasmine, no he should have not neglected his instinct and would have stayed the heck away from her and now, he was suffering the consequences with this insufferable ache around his chest he couldn't shake off regardless of how hard he tried, the reason why he couldn't be with any woman, why he went to work and found himself gazing at her empty cubicle not knowing two things if he'll ever get rid of the feeling of expecting her to be there magically raising her brow at him because he was staring like nothing had happened, a sassy s
