MAURICE'S POVI looked at Glenda. She was sleeping so peacefully. It took a lot of restraint from me not to wake her up and take her again as I watched the slow rise and fall of bare breasts.The night, as it was becoming a usual occurrence, had been filled with love and passion, deep intense passion. Glenda was an eager lover. She was in perfect sync with me, matching my energy in every dimension I morphed our love making to. A passionate young lover that could sexually satisfy me.I felt myself growing again just at the thought of our romp last night. I smiled to myself and got up. I looked out the floor-to-ceiling glass window in my room that allowed me to see the lake. Only this room had this view.The first night I made love to Glenda in my room and not hers, she had been so fascinated by the view even though she had seen the lake a thousand times. She was one hell of a nature lover.It was still dark. The skies shone with twinkling stars and a beautiful crescent moon that seeme

GLENDA'S POV I stirred awake to find Maurice's side of the bed empty. It was cold and I deduced he had been up for a while. I yawned and stretched on the bed. Last night had been, well, pleasant. Very pleasant. I smiled as I replayed the events of the previous night. I was getting used to spending the nights with Maurice in his room. I loved being in his room. Aside from the passion that we had every night, the room had the best view in the house. You could see the expanse of the lake just as one could from the balcony. This was an even better view and I was so enamored with it. I got up from the bed and decided to go back to my room since Maurice was not here. I'd freshen up, change my clothes and go look for Maurice. Then we could have breakfast together. Dawn was setting in, the darkness of the night was ebbing away and the brightness of light was replacing it. I showered and felt as fresh as a new day. I smelled of soap and scented oils added to my bath water. A wonderful f

MAURICE'S POVNo! I don't want anything. I don't want your inheritance. I don't want a divorce. I don't want you to leave. I don't want anything, just stay. Just stay, Glenda.The voice in my head screamed, but my lips remained glued shut. Why wasn't I saying anything? Why couldn't I try to explain? Why wasn't I stopping her? I could stop her.Say something damn it! Stop her! My mind willed but my body remained static, unyielding and unmoving. I watched motionless as Glenda sluggishly turned and walked away.Her shoulders slumped and laden with gloom. Her hand hung weakly by her sides, still clutching the papers. She was obviously devastated. My legs began to move. What am I doing now? I asked myself as I mechanically strode to the spot where Glenda had stood. She was no longer there. I didn't stop her when I had the chance. I just stood there like a numskull.I palmed my face and clenched my jaw taking deep breaths. I was growing mad. A whirlwind of anger was stirring within me.

GLENDA'S POVIt's been two days since I locked myself up in my room. Two days of drowning in sorrow. Two days of getting nothing to eat except the cold dish of betrayal. The hurt I felt filled me, eliminating whatever appetite I may have had.It was happening all over again. I was back to the place where I started, waking up to a fresh baked platter of betrayal. Just whenever I thought I was getting a break, life slaps me back into a harsh loveless reality.How could I even think that a man like Maurice would grow to love me? How could I think he was interested in me? How could I think he was slowly breaking down his high built walls to let me in? How could I let myself be fooled yet again? I let myself be used over and over again. I fall clueless everytime! Every damn time!I should have known the son got his genes from somewhere. An apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Maurice and Brian were the same piece cut out of the same cloth. Ruthless carnivores! Feeding off the goodness an

MAURICE'S POV (Two days earlier)Sam stayed true to his words. He informed Nana as soon as he finished talking to me. I could have sworn he even informed Nana before he called me because Nana requested for me almost immediately.“What is this I hear?” Nana berated me as soon as I reached her.Damn Sam! What was I? A child that he'd report to my mother? He'll definitely be hearing from me. “Don't stay quiet. What did you do to that poor girl? What was Sam saying over the phone?” Nana threw questions at me in quick succession.“I don't understand why Sam would report me to you. I'm not a child Nana. And this is something between me and Glenda.” I tried to hide the anger from being revealed in my voice.Nana kept a disdainful glare on me as I spoke. She eyed the length of me waiting for me to finish.“Is this how I raised you? To steal and rip others off their inheritance?” Nana's watchful eyes remained on me and I suddenly began to feel like a teenager called to the principal's office
Married To My Ex's Father 0080
GLENDA'S POVFor the first time, I confessed my feelings for Maurice to someone.Nana smiled at me. A certain calm fell over her expression.“That's a good thing.”“I don't know, Nana.” My voice was low pitched. “I'm the only one in love.” I said weakly.“He loves you too.” Nana said with a certainty I found difficult to believe.I shook my head, refuting her claims. “No. Nana he doesn't. I've only come to realize that I'll never be the woman he wants. I'm young and stupid. I'm immature, not like Lucy who is older and matches him. I'm not the woman he wants, Nana. I could never be, even if I tried.” I spoke with vehement conviction.“That's where you're getting it all wrong my dear. You're everything and more the woman he wants. He loves you but is too scared to admit it.” Nana paused, giving me time to absorb all that she had said before she continued.“He is a grown man with big fears... I don't know how to make you understand. But don't listen to what he says. Listen to what his he

MAURICE'S POV “You told Nana everything!” I snapped at Sam once he took my call. I could hear him inhale sharply and I sensed he was stretching. He sounded groggy when he spoke. “What?” “Who is that?” I heard the female voice ask in the background. I knew it was Jane. “It's my brother, Maurice.” Sam sniffed as he responded. “It's past midnight.” She whined. Then I heard the ruffles and then shifting. “Hey!” Sam said again. He seemed to have moved elsewhere. “What were you saying?” It was evident that the sleep was slowly clearing. “I said you told Nana everything! You big mouth!” “Is that what you called at this hour to tell me? I was asleep.” Sam sounded astonished. “Fuck your sleep! You put me on the hot seat with Nana. I've had to endure listening to her remind me how she groomed me and how wrong I was to attempt doing what I had in mind… As my brother, I expected you to have my back!” “It's because I have your back that's why I told Nana before you did something stupid

GLENDA'S POV I watched Maurice pace restlessly up and down the hospital hallway. If anxiety was a person, then it would be Maurice. He was making me dizzy just by watching him. I bowed my head and silently prayed that this turned out to be nothing serious. That nothing had happened to Nana. “You should sit. Your pacing is increasing my anxiousness.” I said lightly. My agitation was rising with his incessant walks, making me assume the worst. Maurice paused in front of me and I dared not to raise my head up to him. I could feel his hot gaze on me and I didn't want to be consumed in his emotions. I sat there, quiet, small and continuously diminishing. His presence chipped away my confidence. I breathed out a grateful sigh when the buzz of Maurice's phone ringing cut through the air. Still standing before me, Maurice dug his hand into his pocket and fished out his phone. “Sam.” His crisp tone resonated through the hall. “Sorry, I should have called earlier. I was distracted.” He sai

GLENDA'S POV I didn't want to accept how foolish I had been. How gullible I was. How blindingly trusting I was. “Elsa, please tell me this is all not true. Tell me this is all a prank. Say it. Laugh all this off… Say you're joking!” I yelled at her. I shook my head as though doing that would dispel everything that I had heard. “You are a liar! I don't believe you!” I broke into a sob. “I trusted you, Elsa. I loved you! I trusted you!... You were my sister! That's how much I cherished you.” I spilled through my teary, pain-filled voice. “And I hate you! I hate you Glenda! I hate you!” She countered, panting with dark rage. The room was filled with the heat of the hate emanating from her. The stench of her loath towards me was palpable in the ambience of the room. It felt so surreal. Like acting out a scene with the evil villain. Only, this was far from a dream or a movie. It was my sick reality. I could never have thought Elsa, whom I considered akin to my sister, harbored su

MAURICE POV It was a long drive. It had been two hours ago since Lucy agreed to take me to the place she talked about, yet we still hadn't reached. We kept taking neverending turns and corners. “Are we there yet?” I asked like an impatient child eager to reach the park sooner. “No. It's right up that corner.” Lucy replied. “How many more corners are we going to take?” Exasperation embellished my tone. “How did you even come to know about this place?” I asked out of my impatience and eagerness to quickly reach Glenda. The long hours of driving was beginning to make me rethink my decision. I couldn't help but begin to consider that this may be a ploy to distract me. “Um, he brought me here one time when we needed to talk privately. This is his hideout.” she spoke shyly. From the sound of her voice and the expression on her face, I understood that this was where they came to do all their plotting. Could Brian and Lucy still be working together? Could this also be one of

BRIAN'S POVI repeatedly slapped the passport against my palm, relishing in immense satisfaction as I walked to my car. It had taken longer than I had anticipated to get it done but I was finally holding it. My ticket to leave this place without being spotted by anyone.Best part, I was taking the woman I love along. Everything was falling into place. I smiled to myself as I got in my car. Aunt Helena had no idea how smart I could be. By the time she'll realize anything, we'd be long gone. Far long gone! To a place where no one can ever find us! Our disappearance would be a huge disappointment to Aunt Helena. It would put a big hole in her plans.As I sat in my car, my hand rested idling on the steering wheel. I gaze through the windshield, staring fixated at nothing ahead, my mind traveling back to that day at the hospital.★★★Flash back★★★“I've lost him.” She was crying profusely. “We failed.”I glanced over to Lucy curled on the gurney, an irritated look draped my expression.

GLENDA'S POV “Don't you want to hear my story?” She asked, pouting her lips, feigning childish annoyance. I was finding it difficult to understand everything going on. I had never seen this side of Elsa. She looked like some deranged psychopath. “Elsa. What…” I could barely formulate my thoughts into words before a forceful, painful sting shot through me. The electric sensation began from the cheek of my face, spreading pain, surprise and fear through my body. I stared at Elsa in utter disbelief. Did she… Did she just slap me? “You don't get to ask the questions.” She commanded in an icy tone. “Now, back to the story.” The iciness in her voice disappeared almost immediately as it had appeared. She was acting like a person with multiple personalities. I stared at her speechlessly, still reeling from the pain of the slap she had given me. She cleared her throat and began. “There was a beautiful woman who fell in love with a man. But sadly, the man did not return the woman’s love

MAURICE'S POV I walked back into the house taking quick long angry strides heading back to my study. My face contoured into a growl as I muttered angrily to myself.“Did they find her?” A voice asked.I stopped and turned. I hadn't noticed the presence of anyone seated in the living room. Nora materialized before me. “Has she been found?” She asked again. Worry and anticipation embellished her expression.The eagerness in her gaze only added to my fury. It was a stupid lead. A total waste of my time. Utterly pointless!There was no trace of Glenda where they had thought they had a lead. I wondered what their team was doing as regards to this case. Absolutely nothing! And my infuriation was growing with each passing time.I averted her gaze. I was too pissed to break the bad news to her. I scanned the area of the living room and then set my gaze on Lucy.“Why are you still here?” I interrogated her icily.She seemed to cower under my demeaning stare.“I was concerned.” Her voice was

GLENDA'S POV She came closer and sat beside me, darting her head behind her constantly as though checking if she was being followed. “I knew I'd find you here.” She whispered. Her alert gaze roved around the room. Oh thank Goodness! Finally someone was here to help me. “Elsa… Elsa.” I called out weakly, a tinge of excitement and hope adorned my gruff voice. “Elsa. Brian. Please get me out of here.” I mumbled. “I know.” She whispered in response and placed her right index finger over her lips. “Keep it down.” She darted behind her again. I immediately understood. We needed to stay quiet so we didn't alert my captor. I nodded vigorously to the best of meager strength. “Don't worry, I'll get you out of here.” She reassured me and tried to help me sit up. “You're weak.” She commented. She struggled to lift my limp body. It didn't help that I couldn't assist her by at least raising myself. Whatever Brian had been feeding me was still working actively inside me. “He has been feedi

MAURICE'S POVI took the next available flight back to London. All the while keeping constant communication with Nora regarding Glenda's return.I could feel it in my guts that Glenda was in trouble. It was confirmed when I returned late that night and Glenda was still nowhere to be found.There was no trace of her except for the blood that stained the vanity table and the telltale of someone being dragged on the floor.Incompetent staffs! How could someone enter the house without being noticed? Were they all asleep?I wasted no time informing the police. The evidence present, all pointed to the fact that Glenda has been kidnapped and investigations kicked off immediately.That was three days ago. Three days since the investigation to determine Glenda's whereabouts began and three days of no result.No one knew how she left the house. No one had seen her and no one knew who had abducted her. It was all too mysterious.So chaotic that it turned me into a frantic mess. Not knowing the

GLENDA'S POV A loud thumping sound woke me from the darkness I was floating in. It seemed to grow louder, increasing in its disturbing volume. I felt dizzy, hazy, like a clouded mist. I tried to move but my limbs felt too heavy to comply. Slowly, I fluttered my eyelids open. I was welcomed by a dim yellow light shining brightly beside me. I shut back my eyes. My head was aching badly. I tried to move again, propel myself and access my environment, but the aching weight in my head kept pulling me down. I shut my eyes and cursed at my failed attempt. I opened my eyes again and squinted past the yellow light to look around my environment. My eyes roved over the strange and unfamiliar setting. This was not my room. Where was I? How did I get here? The throbbing pain in my head increased as I tried to remember. Such a simple task brought me such intense pain. After a minute of trying, the memories came flooding into my mind. The bathroom. The feeling that I was being watched. The fe

MAURICE'S POV“What do you mean by you can't find Glenda? Isn't she at home?” My cold voice shot at Nora.I had just checked into my hotel room and was calling to inform Glenda. Her phone had been ringing non-stop with no response. I did try calling her earlier too when my flight landed but there was no response either. I assumed she must have been napping or up to something that kept her busy.Regardless, I expected her to be with her phone and to return my call at the earliest. I took some time to get myself settled and tried calling her again.Feeling frustrated after several attempts of being unable to reach Glenda, I called the house line only for Nora to tell me that Glenda wasn't home.“I just came from her room. She asked me to make dinner and that she'll come down to have it. That was four hours ago. The food was getting cold, so I went upstairs to inquire from her if she had changed her mind regarding dinner. But she wasn't there.” Nora explained over the phone.I found her
