As the person in the car saw us approaching, he opened the door and marched out. It was a potbellied man. With a reclining hairline and beady eyes.He licked his lips as he saw me coming and he opened the passenger seat of the car.“I thought the picture was photoshopped, my my." The man spoke, his breath smelled like something nasty.He reached forward to touch me and I jerked my head away. The younger man held my head in place and the fat man smiled and reached forward again.I couldn't turn my head away, the man's fat fingers grazed my chin and then my collarbone. I felt my soul recoil into the deepest parts of my being.I almost puked.The man laughed and said something in a language I didn't understand.“No, I take her first. " The younger man stated.The potbellied man studied me and he shook his head.“I should take her first,"“What rights do you have?." The younger man asked angrily.“Her mother owes me more. Three hundred and fifty five thousand. Yours is merely just one hun
I saw that stubborness that Cristela carried, that kind that could drive you mad if you insist on doing the opposite. I knew better than to stand there and argue with her as blood leaked out of me.“Fine." I told her and I went to take my seat in the passenger side, she got in the driver's seat.Slowly, she started to get the hang of it.I directed her to the hospital I had taken Dariel.“You'll be fine, you'll be fine." She said as we reached the hospital.***The younger man's grip on my neck finally fell off as the automatic gun was pointing at him.My legs started trembling and I took the opportunity to run away from them.“He has a gun." I told Josef as I ran behind him, not caring that he was also a threat.I knew, deep inside me that those men were the bigger threats, I better deal with them first and I would find out how to escape from the snares of Josef.Or what if I just run now.The younger man raised his gun and before he could pull the trigger, Josef put a bullet in his
“You can't go home." Elise said, the doctor's face was grave and he was concerned.“Please, you need to rest, I had to restitch—"I groaned and the man stopped talking.“It's not the first time I've gotten shot and it's not the first time I had to restitch the bullet wound. I'm going home." I stood up from the hospital bed.I couldn't get the security guard off my mind. I should have checked his ID. I should have seen proof that he was working with the security company. What if he was one of Josef's goons and I granted him access into the house. What I did was chaotic. I couldn't get the thought off my head, I felt as if I forgot an empty pot on the burner and I needed to get home before the entire house went up in flames.I fucked up real bad.“You should have just stayed..."“Shut the fuck up, I can't hear any more words from you. Shut up."Elise gasped, her eyes were begining to water.“You've never spoken to me like that. What did I do wrong, was it because I tried to touch you e
I was sore all over.When I reached home, it was almost nine pm. I grabbed my phone and shoved it into my pocket. “Welcome back, sir." The young valet said.“Thank you." I told him and handed him the keys to park the car in the garage.“Uhh... Sir?."I turned to look at him.“There was a man here, he said he was the security that you hired...."My heart starting pounding in my chest.“He had black hair and he wore a black leather jacket, I spoke with him."The valet shook his head.“No sir, he had brown hair and he was wearing a grey suit."I pulled my phone from my pocket and turned it on, I had left it in the car while I went to the hospital to stop the bleeding. There were multiple missed calls from the security company.I ran inside, my mum and dad were in the living room watching TV.“Gabriel, you're back." I heard my mum say but i was already up the stairs. I ran to Cristela's room, it was empty.I went to Kylee's room, it was empty.I ran to my bedroom, it was empty and in th
He gave a slight nod and turned to Josef.“You say your girlfriend fell down the stairs."Josef nodded and a look of sadness befell his handsome features. He was a great actor. “Yes, I found her laying on the floor when I got back home. Is our baby alright?."My breath caught in my throat.The doctor looked at me, it was obvious that he was disturbed.“No, the fetus is fine. She doesn't have any issues with her body, just the side of her head."“Fine. That's great, so I've paid the bills, I can take my girlfriend home now, right?."“No sir, she needs to rest."“Are there any complications."“She is really lucky to have survived that fall, as you can see we tried all we could go revive her. You can't just take her home under zero supervision."Josef shifted in his seat, he turned to look at me and I tried to hide my fear. “Once in a while the nurse will check up on you." The doctor said to meI wanted to call him back, to send him a secret message. He knew me and Gabriel, he was the
GABRIELI ended the call with Kylee, she was returning home because there was nothing leading to Cristela's whereabouts. I had tried to follow the tracks in the woods, I had learnt to do it in boarding school but whoever had taken her was great at covering their tracks. It led to a dead end. “Eat something, please." My mum said.She pushed the plate towards me once again.“I'm not hungry." I told her.“It's almost four in the evening and you've been frantic. You haven't even had a sip of water."“I don't know where she is, I don't know what she's feeling right now and my mind can't stop flashing images of her suffering. Right now I can't even afford to breathe properly mum. "“You're doing your best to find her. The police are doing their job, everybody is helping...."“It's my fault. It's all my fault, I failed to protect her."My mum sighed and sat back on her chair.“Elise hasn't showed up since yesterday, I think she knows something is up." My mother said and I felt a sting.The
“you don't know what you're talking about." I said to him and he chuckled.“You think?." He retorted.He stood up and walked to the window.He stayed there for a while.“The cops are here." He said, his voice held disbelief and shock.I looked up immediately and relief sprang through me for a second.“Get up " he ordered me.“I can't." I told him.He ran towards me and picked me up from the bed.“Josef, they might be here for another reason." I said as he carried me bride style out of the room.He didn't reply but I could understand that he wouldn't risk it.“I can walk." I told him as we entered the elevator.He stared at me suspiciously then dropped me down.We reached the second to the last floor and the elevator door opened, he pulled me out and led me to the stairwell.Bravo, the police would use the elevator to get to the room he didn't want to risk it either. I walked quietly, knowing that I needed to find an escape. Once we reached the ground floor, he started pushing me to th
He stood up.“I'll be going now, will you be fine on your own?." He asked me.I couldn't admit that I was scared that Josef would jump out from somewhere and he would finally take me away, this time he would succeed and I'd never see Gabriel again.“I'll be fine..." I didn't even finish my statement and Criss was already out of the door. I looked around, the pain in my body was already easing, the bandage on my head felt like a headband I only had to pretend it was a fancy fashion accessory.I climbed off from the bed and walked to the window, I was lying and telling myself that I was just watching people move about but in reality, I was waiting to see Josef walk in so that I would have enough time to escape. ***GABRIELI walked through the doors and the first person I see in the crowd is Kylee. She was walking towards the exit. At first my mind can't place why she would be out here at all because I had to deal with a lot of things and my thoughts haven't settled.She looked and saw
GABRIELCristela was crying, that was what my brain thought first, it was all I could think about. I sat up and rushed to hold her. My heart was hammering against my ribs.“Baby, what's wrong.... Come on, talk to me baby, why are you crying?."“My dad."She managed to say.“Was it a bad dream, I'm sorry, I'm here now ."I held her against my chest.“No, it wasn't a bad dream, it was good."“Then why are you crying?."“Because I'm happy, these are tears of joy."I kissed the top of her head and she held me tight.“Thank you Gabriel."“For what?."“For all this. For happiness."All the words I was going to say got stuck in my throat and I was overfilled with gratitude and love, I should be thanking her. I held her tight and closed my eyes.“Go to sleep my love, I'll hold you." THE ENDEPILOGUEThree years later.Kylee was holding Mila's cute little hands. She looked exactly like Criss but sometimes I like to tell Kylee that her daughter resembled her just to get favours done.I brought
“Well, since you asked so nicely, my love " He released me and I turned to lay on my back, he pulled off his pants and his shirt, I watched him through heavy lidded eyes.He pulled my legs and I brought my lips to his cock. I looked up at him and my heart fluttered as I saw his stare, as if he was wondering how to ravish me.I held the base of his cock and kissed the tip. He groaned through gritted teeth as I brought out my tongue and swatted it all over the head of his cock.“Oh god." He moaned.I smiled and ran my tongue along the shaft, then the crown.“Yo-you're killing me."I put the head of his cock slowly into my mouth, his body began trembling. The power I held over him felt too good. I pulled his cock out of my mouth and he gasped.“Fuck you." He cursed with a laugh and held my neck.I swear he cut off air supply by holding my throat.He shoved his cock into my mouth and down my throat, I gagged and he moaned and proceeded to shoved it in some more. It stung so badly, tears
CRISTELA“Fuck, no one told me it would hurt like this." I groaned and threw my head back.“Push Mrs Faust, you're doing great." Gabriel was squeezing my hand and kissing my knuckles.“Do something!" He yelled at the doctor as I screamed.“This is the normal procedure, we can't do anything, unless you want her operated on."I breathed in through my nose and out through my mouth, the doctor said the baby was already crowning, I had got to do one big push.I felt like ten thousand crabs were pinching me down there and another ten thousand were pulling.“You can do this baby." Gabriel said encouragingly, he was more nervous than I was and it gave me hope because I needed to be strong for five of us. I couldn't believe that there were two more.I did one big push.“That's it, another one. You're doing perfectly." The sound of a baby's cry pierced through the room.Cold sweat was gathering on my face. Gabriel left my side for and returned with the baby.“It's a boy." He said and he kiss
Standing in front of the big mirror, I brushed my hair till all the strands were straight.“That mother fucker thought he could ruin your beautiful wavy hair, but I'm here to fix it, okay?."I giggled as Blue animatedly waved the hair products in the air like a magic wand.The door opened and Gabriel walked in with Kylee, he was carrying two large shopping bags.“I thought you guys were just going to get lunch." I said concerning the bag.It's been three days since I got back home and I'm already looking like the way I used to look before Solis captured me, a rich young woman. Old money kind of rich. I was dripping in wealth, practically. At this point I've gotten used to the fact that Gabriel is wealthy and I'm also wealthy. Till now I can't wrap my head around the fact that we are actually married.Gabriel rescheduled a different wedding for us, it would just be our close circle and this time it would be filled with happiness. I still have nightmares of Solis, sometimes he succeed
“I'm not about to have sex with you like a teenager searching for an easy fix or a pussy deprived man. I'm about to make love to you because I've wanted for the day that i would hold you in my arms and now it's happening, I'm going to savour it."I relaxed and let him.He saw the relent in me and kissed me softly, as if he knows I'll never break but he wants to care for me anyway. Tears stinged my eyes and stained my cheeks.“I love you." He whispered, brushing my tears away.My words choked in my throat, I wondered if he had stopped loving me one time.I wondered if he didn't even care to find me or if he had given up, now I'm happy to laugh in the face of the insecurity because I know none if is true. This man would love me to the grave, chase my soul with a shackle chain around both of our necks in the afterlife, find me in the next life and still keeping loving me then...rinse and repeat, till infinity. Until whenever consciousness decides to take a halt.He pulled off his belt an
KYLEEI glanced at the marriage certificate, it's the only thing on the table and fuck me twice but I know that Gabriel's table is always heavy with files and paperwork, it's as if he cleared the table because nothing was worthy to sit beside this very certificate.“So you both are married now." I said as a way of greeting. Of course he doesn't acknowledge me, but I didn't expect him to snap back to his old teasing and witty self. I had lost the beautiful man he became when Cristela came into his life and now I didn't even have any rights to the machine she made after she left.Now I'm unsure which he is now... Something tells me he's different again, another beast has been born, this one is new and much more stronger. The hairs on the back on my neck stand as I watched him. He's wearing a black suit shirt, the jacket is sprawled on the arm chair. The only thing shinny on his body is his diamond watch and belt metal head.He sits, watching Cristela sleep on the large bed. He's in his
“get dress, we found a priest."I started getting dressed. My wedding day, I can't believe that I used to fantasize about Gabriel and I getting married, I wouldn't want many guests... Hell I didn't even have any friends except Blue and he knew thousands of people and the entire world knows his name yet I wonder if he really trusts anyone apart from me, Wayne and Kylee.They were the only people I really knew that were friends with him. The others were nuisances that fought their way into his life.Like Adeline, Tina... Elise.“You look so beautiful." Solis said, tears slipped past my eyes and he beckoned on me to come so he would wipe them away when he was the one that causes them. ***I stood in the altar.Solis was unhinged. He was either not scared of anything at all including Gabriel and the devil or he simply didn't know who Gabriel was. When Ruiz told me that Solis would not bother to search online for who Gabriel was, I didn't believe him until I stood in the altar, facing hu
The door opened and Greta walked in. She was carrying a bag that looked too heavy.“Good morning, sir."Solis smile lasted Only seconds before he turned to his laptop.Greta turned to me and that understanding we had was gone. Now all that I saw when she looked at me was hate and disappointment. I turned away from her because I didn't want to keep staring at those negative emotions. I needed to think.Gabriel was in this country and not just that, he was looking for me. I had to leave clues for him to find me, I had to do something. Greta returned from the bathroom. “Come, let's wash you up."Greta said flatly.I wondered what would happen if I faked being hurt... Solis would definitely take me to the hospital.But, what if history repeats itself. When Solis takes me to the hospital, Gabriel comes here.I walked to the bathroom and Greta followed behind me. She shut the door. “How do you feel?."“I don't feel pain anywhere."“No, how do you feel now that you've made him sad."I laug
They were right. We drove to the border and i had to stop.Ruiz broke the window and pulled me out of the car. Hot white pain exploded through my face as he slapped me on my cheek.“Tell Solis we've got her."He pushed me back into the passenger seat of the car and got into the driver's seat. His phone rang and he picked it up.“We chased her and I've caught her... Yes she's here with me... I'm sorry, I would have checked my car first... We've gotten her."Ruiz turned to me“Solis is broken because of you!" He shouted in my face. “He thought you loved him, you should have heard him talk... He's finished!"“Fuck you, Ruiz." I managed to say, my cheek was warm from his slap. “In courtesy of my boss, if he asks, I'll say you bumped your head while thrashing."Before I could even process the meaning of his words, he punched me and i went out cold.I woke up to soft buzzing.My kids were heavy, I turned to the buzzing sound to see a yellow lamp, it's light bulb was buzzing softly.“We don
