Sophia barged into Andrew's room as she immediately gasped and covered her mouth. She dropped her hands seconds later as she asked what he was doing."What is this all for? " She asked him with a smile. Andrew got on his feet as he immediately walked over to her. He held her in an embrace. He gripped on her tighter as he snuggled her into him, sniffing on her neck as she bent her neck to the other side. Their embrace last for a few seconds as he slowly released his grip and then broke off. He now held her hand in his hand as he led her to the place he had been standing before."Do you like it?" He asked Sophia with a smile. Sophia nodded. She had never gotten a present this elaborate. She turned to him again and hugged him. Tears started to flow down her eyes as she thought it.Before her stood an elaborate flower tree. It looked the size of a Christmas tree but it was pink and it had beautiful tiny ornaments on it. There were still ornaments on the ground which meant Andrew was still
Sophia felt like she was in a dream. Andrew was really before her, kneeling as he asked her to marry him. "But I… you know.. you already know that.. you should already know that I am married.. I am married to your brother, oh.. I am sorry.. I meant your cousin" she stuttered. She was breathing heavily at this point. How was he expecting her to handle this decision?Andrew nodded as he stared up into her eyes. He took a deep breath through his mouth and immediately let it all out. "I know what you mean. I totally understand but these feelings I have for you, they are real" he said as he pulled one hand up and touched his chest with it. He slowly banged on his chest wall as he continued, " Sophia, I know the time is short. This is probably too sudden for you and you might think this is a joke or maybe I might be joking with you but I can assure you, I am not" Andrew leaned closer to her as he took her hand and placed it on his chest. He covered her hand as he stopped talking and looke
William held a muscled up face as he left the house. His red car was always comfortable to him as he enjoyed the luxury and aesthetics it gave to him. It pronounced a wealthy person to whoever saw him and he liked it– the feeling of intimidating others with whatever he had. Be it cars, money, houses, business or women. Whatever it was, he always wanted to intimidate whoever was next to him. He liked the feeling it gave to him, like he was powerful enough.William drove past the man at his estate's entrance as he slowly brought his window down. The man came to him and bowed down a little."Make sure not to let anyone unfamiliar out or in of this estate. I will be gone for a few days. If you do, I would have you killed. Do you understand me?!" He barked. The man nodded as he immediately barked out a 'yes sir' at almost the same tone. He knew better than to reluctantly answer his boss. "Good. That's very good. Take this" he said as he reached into the side space of his car. He pushed pas
Hands up in the air!" The guard said to him with an authoritatively commanding voice. William smirked. It was obvious the man that stood before him did not know who he was talking to. William turned to him as he tried to note the man's facial structure. When he settled down later, he would teach him a nasty lesson."Take me to your boss. I have urgent news for him" he spoke to the man who had just commanded him. He parted his legs shoulder width apart as if to mock the man before him. The short man scuffed. He was surely offended."Take him to the confinement. I will have a talk with the boss about whoever this prick is" he turned to the boys beside him. They nodded as they quickly gathered around William, encircling him with their weapons in their hands ready to shoot if he had misbehaved. William smiled again. He surely was enjoying what was happening."Take it easy boys. If you treat me gently, I'm sure I'd have mercy on you when I finally meet your boss" he said to them as they pu
Tiffany lifted her head up to see William's expression. She needed to know if he meant it or he was just joking. William turned to face her also as he gave her a smile."Let's peel his skin like we did in the old times" her said to her with a smile. Tiffany smiled as she returned back to what she was looking at on her tablet. She could tell he was joking with her. It was funny to her how she could still tell his expressions when she hadn't seen him for so long. Ten years to be exact, or was it more?"Anyway, I would love to peel your skin off immediately but I have other things to do here, with Tiffany, so run along. Today is your lucky day" William said to the guard with a grin. He could see the chest of the guard rise and fall repeatedly and a little fast. The man was relieved. He looked like he was about to die untill he heard the news. Immediately William dismissed him, he turned to his boss as he waited for Tiffany to give him a reply. When he saw Tiffany raise her head and nod t
What do you mean 'break-up'?" William remembered asking with his eyes wide open. Tiffany backed away slowly as William's voice suddenly grew loudly."I mean what I said" she said to him with a straight face. "You can't afford to help me or care for me anymore and I truly can not take it anymore. I think we should break up and maybe stay friends, that is, if you would wish" she said with a cold tone. Tiffany folded her arms as she turned her face the other way. No one was going to change her mind with the way she was standing. Her nose up in the sky. "Tiffany. I think this is a big mistake. Think about it. Just take a second to think about this. You could be making the biggest mistake of your life. Think deep about it" William remembered saying as he dropped the box he was with on the floor and turned fully to her. He walked over to her side but she still shifted places. It felt like she was now scared of him. What was this?"Look, you're a great guy. You've helped me from school. Fee
William remembered waking up the next morning with a banging headache. When he had opened his eyes, he noticed he was in a different environment. It was nothing like he had known before and strangely, the smell that hit his nose made him feel like puking. He lifted his nose up as he tried to hold his breath."Welcome Mr William. How's your head doing right now? Do you feel any pain as of now?" A woman wearing a white jacket came up to him with a paper board in her hands. She looked smart with her glasses on. While she waited for his response, she walked over to the side of his bed as she placed the board gently to his side and started checking on the machine beside him."Does your head still hurt?" She asked another question with a smile as she turned to have a look at his face. William realized that she might have been a nurse or maybe the doctor. The younger William tried to sit up straight and felt a pang of pain hit in right in the middle of his head. He quickly returned back to
William tightened his lips as he sat straight before the old man. His neighbor had just asked him a question but he couldn't talk.It wasn't as though he couldn't talk, he was just unable to explain the circumstance to him. How could he?!It was a shameful thing. One would call a man weak because he got hurt physically for a girl's sake."Boy! Listen to me! I haven't got much time on earth and I see you're wasting more of my time by keeping quiet while I wait." He said as he stood up and walked over to William's side. The younger William git scared immediately. The old man bent down as he brought his face to William and smiled. "You can talk to me. I totally understand everything. I've been there, myself. Come on, go on. Talk" the old man said to him again.William remembered that he had originally planned not to tell the old man who was his neighbor anything but he kept on persuading him and slowly, William opened up. He smiled as he thanked his younger self for actually opening up
While Sophia sat packing her bags, she couldn't help but look over at the corner of her room. The baby things she had asked for were all piled up there. Both pink and blue. Sophia recalled what had just happened. She had lost her baby. The child she had as a product of her love for Andrew. It hurt her. Tears rolled down her eyes, causing her to sob again."Sophia, I understand what's going through your head looking through those things.. I'm sorry about it and I know it won't be easy but right, you have to take your mind off it and concentrate on the mission we have ahead"Natalie walked over to her step sister's side, patting her on the back as she squatted to face her. "You'll be fine again"Sophia sobbed some more before nodding age finally standing up. She attempted to walk but fell to the ground. She couldn't walk properly, her abdomen and body was still sore from the 'accident' she had had with William. Natalie rushed to her, "it's alright, I've got you. I'll help you"Together
Sophia awoke to finding herself in a hospital. She was strapped in with so many needles and could hear nothing but the beeping of the machine beside her. Seated next to her was William. He had bent his head over her feet, he was asleep.Sophia took a moment to look around. Her hospital room looked like a five star luxurious hotel. It would have been an enjoyable escape from William if he wasn't already beside her. She tried to adjust herself in the bed when she mistakenly awoke William."You're up" he said to her in a dry voice. He stretched his body, frowning his face as though his limbs had hurt him. "At least you're alive"His words didn't make much sense to Sophia until she looked down at her stomach. She immediately realized the pain she was feeling from it, "William.. " She looked back up at him. "What happened to my baby?""Your foolishness caused it. You tried to run from me, don't you remember? You should be grateful, I didn't shoot you in the head. Pathetic wench" William r
William dragged Sophia to the airport, strapping her to the back of his car seat. He had their belongings in the back of his trunk and was also followed by heavy security, Incase anyone or Andrew tried to stop him. William looked from the side of his mirror every few minutes while he drove. He wasn't going to take any chances. They were going to leave the country that day."I see you're so confident now. You even dare to go against my words. That's nice" he smirked, "I have something nice awaiting that attitude of yours in the new place we are going to. I'm sure you'll love being strapped to the ceiling this time" he scuffed.Sophia sat at the back of his car seat. Her mouth and hands were covered and bound. She couldn't move not talk but she managed to mumble something back to him. As William adjusted the mirror to see her clearly while he drove, he could see her clearly then.Sophia had another set of tears rolling down her eyes. William smiled, it seemed the toughness in her hand
William walked out of the door. He had gotten a hold of the passports and flight tickets from his thugs. He was out of the embassy building and was staring right at it.Previously, he had gone to his office and settled all matters concerning his business. William delegated new roles to new men and had set up preventive measures to watch them. Everyone knew he was a top shot in his game and he was sure they wouldn't dare to betray him, unless they were about to find out what had happened to their predecessors.He looked away from the building, letting his eyes roam around the high skyscrapers while he simultaneously searched for his car. Tightly grabbing on the file that contained the documents that continued his documents and that of his bride, William got into his car and drove home.Arriving home, he called on all the maids in the house, asking them to meet him for a meeting.When they had all arrived at his sitting room, William started handing out pieces of papers and envelopes. F
Sophia was taking too long to answer his question. William was growing tired of her pleas and what was more embarrassing were the sighs he was hearing from the thugs he had asked for security. They sighed every few minutes, as though they were of what they were watching. It felt like his talk and her pleads were boring them. William frowned. He was boring them? Oh no! He was going to make sure they were entertained enough."You wench, speak!" He spat out from no where. His voice had risen by a bass or two. He was now grabbing Sophia by the collar while he stared int her eyes. He could see fear. She as terrified. But from the corner of his eyes, William could see the thugs had now stood up straight. It looked like they were now very interested in what was happening between them.It gladdened William's heart."You don't want to speak, fine!!" he barked at her as he pushed her forcefully, back into her chair, holding her blouse's collar, he started to drag at it, causing it to tear.So
Sophia was carried into Andrew's studio with her belongings right behind her. William followed closely. He smiled at her, constantly clapping while he mockingly praised her."Drop her there." He gesture with his neck, pointing to the chair he had sitting in the center of the studio. "Strap her tight, my wife here, has a way of always leaving me for reasons I have no idea about" Sophia was dropped on the chair forcefully, leading her to moan in pain. The thugs William had brought tightly gripped her hands, strapping her down into the chair, making Sophia cry."William, please. William, I beg you. It's not what you think, William, please let me go" she begged with a low soft tone. More tears rolled down her eyes quietly. "William, please"William stood by the door with his arms folded, watching his thugs strap her to the chair. When they were done, he took a step to where she sat, sizing her up from her head to her toe and back."You really out-did yourself today, Sophia. You're not a
Andrew was halfway home inside his car. As he drove out of the hotel and was about to move past a traffic light, Andrew felt his head bang harder. It was no longer bearable. He looked at his side mirror in an attempt to find a good parking space and then get help.Luckily, there was a drug store nearby, so Andrew got in. He got in a few painkillers, some chewing and a bottle of water.That was enough for him."Thanks" he said as he waved to the cashier. He had asked her to keep the change too.Getting back into his car, Andrew took the drug down his throat with a sip of water. It had almost choked him when he heard his phone ring. He hesitated in brining it out of his pocket but the constant ring of it made him submit.He took out the phone, clearing his throat.The water had missed it's way from his mouth, entering his windpipe. Andrew composed himself, he looked at the display number and frowned. It was an unknown number.Andrew took a second to figure out who might have been call
Sophia had cleaned herself off really good and she was now out of her bedroom and on her way to the kitchen. She was having a craving. Sophia needed something sweet down her throat, "maybe a lollipop would help" she thought.As Sophia passed through the hallway and was almost at the turn when she heard William's loud voice. She wondered what was going on.William was great at pouring his anger on her alone, it must have been really serious for him to have been shouting and using curse words. She had to take a look.Walking back slowly, Sophia creeped up behind his door and started to eavesdrop. "What do you mean you don't have enough men?" William roared. " What kind of guarding agency doesn't have enough men? What in the fucking world is that?!"She could even hear him panting from where she stood. He must have been very upset and agitated. Sophia had only gotten to see that side of him when he found out she was pregnant and showed her his results."What's gotten into him?" She lean
William ran his hand through her face as he drew a line on her features, connecting her forehead to her earlobe to her bosoms. It was a fetish thing he had never done before and William was eager to try it."Today, I want you to have a good day" he said as he ran his hand through her hair while she hung from the iron bar. Her body was bound by ropes while she was strapped naked to the bar. Sophia swung side to side. "I've been so hard on you and I'm sure that's why you got pregnant for another man" he traced his finger to the back of her neck, biting down on his lower lips while he smiled at her, "Regardless, I want to be a nice person to you. I'm sorry, okay?*Sophia said nothing, her body suspended in the air, sore and tired."Did you hear me?"he stopped using his finger to trace her features and stood still, staring deeply into her sea blue eyes. "Sophia… "Sophia sighed. She nodded, "Yes. Yes, William, I heard you"William nodded, he smiled again and took a closer step, cupping h
