"Let's go kids," Chioma piped up as Madam Peju,the officiating ministers and the rest of our well wishers filed out of the cathedral and began to drag Stephen by the ear and Amaka by her arm towards the nearest exit in the room.
"If you even dare to move another inch without a permission from the children's guardian to leave with her ward, trust me when I say the consequences will be dire." And Mike was quick to respond with his infamous threats, only that this time, he looked as hell, like he wasn't going to hesitate to carry out his threat.
His caveman approach to preventing the sudden exit of my latest enemy seemed to have worked perfectly, as the woman halted with shock and slight fear evident in her features.
All that was until Stephen pulled out a gun

Chapter Begins"You are not my mother."Those words continued to linger in Mokunfayo's head, even as hours turned to days and days to over a week.Stephen's outburst had left her severely shocked. She couldn't help wondering how long he had held the thought in his head—out of the abundance of the heart and all that. Did he think of her often? And what did Stephen take her as?Eventually the questions changed dimension. Where was Stephen's mother really? What happened to her? Who was she even?Mokunfayo's brother had never brought the woman to meet the family or anything like that when he was alive and considering the circumstances that led to their meeting, Mokunfayo had no way of knowing. Not a clue.None of the children liked to talk about it and Mokun never pressed. She understood that they would talk whenever they were ready and she tolerated that. At least

Mokunfayo Badmus:I watched my sister recount the horryfying tale of all the terrible things I'd done to her in the past few weeks; I stood in awe as Olabisi admitted to visiting Alex on the said day, but he had broke if off with her with the information that he was engaged and the news had been what upset her to cause the accident that almost claimed her life and when she told me about it all, I'd went wild with a diabolical plan to get back at Alex and his very supportive friends.She narrated how I'd stabbed her, on her way to recovery in her hospital room, with a knife when she refused to play her part in my lie, how I'd fed her with tranquilizers when she determined to live through her stab wounds and denied anyone that could help access to see her, how her best friend had finally found a way to come through for her in the hospital and with the help of the very doctor I employed to carry out my devious tasks, faked her unconsciousness and wa

It was a case of running from frypan into fire when Mokunfayo bolted out of her supposed engagement party into the clutches of the bad kind of policemen.And when Mike –a handsome but deadly assassin– comes to her rescue in the nick of time, sparks begin to fly.The problem was; it was supposed to be a one time meet up, getting stuck together was not supposed to be included in the messy mix.But there they were; a hurt, bitter, cold, calm and collected lawyer cohabiting in the same space with a hot, panty-dropping, rash, hardened criminal. It is right to assume that more than sparks would fly.Opposites, they say, attract Mokun and Mike's case wasn't different. But with dark pasts, family secrets, pain and all the bitterness in the mix, would their attraction

Mokunfayo Badmus:I was still beyond surprised when I regained consciousness after what felt like days. But more than astonishment, I felt even more confusion.Mike wouldn't shoot me just for throwing him a birthday party even if he abhorred birthdays. There had to be some other reason.There had to be.Stop acting like you've known him all your life Mokunfayo Badmus! You've only known him for a few days. Snap out of delirium!Sigh.I finally decided to pay attention to my dressing and surroundings. I was wearing a blue hospital gown and in a room similar to the one I'd visited him in the night before, just a little bit smaller. Nothing interesting about it either; lean bed, white walls, bedside stool, single loveseat ...Trigger was asleep on the single loveseat. I was guessing he would at least put me out of my misery and explain what on earth

Mokunfayo Badmus:"Fay," he breathed out in the same amount of shock I felt.He recognised me too even if my mask was still on, my eyes were all he needed. He used to tell me how he could recognise me in a million people if he saw as least as my eyes. Turned out he hadn't been joking."The police have been searching all over the place for you!" I winced at the loudness in his tone and had no choice but to drag him to a secluded area to avoid more of the curious stares that were coming my way.I removed my mask when it was just us, making him gape for a moment before regaining composure."You've been all over the news lately." A lame way to start a conversation with someone you dumped over four years ago because she was raped. But I nodded all the same."What happened? I don't believe a word of what the media is saying." He said and suddenly encased me in a bone crushing bear hug. If I didn't know better,

Mokunfayo Badmus:Mike left for the bathroom after ordering breakfast with a clouded expression, a polar opposite of his infamous playful smirk he had on just moments ago.I could tell he also wasn't used to this whole... thing that was going on between us. It would be useless to lie to myself that I didn't feel attracted to the hot murderer in the adjoining room, however scary it was to admit it.The entire thing was scary, Richard had never calmed me down in the middle of my usual nightmares -well that was probably because I'd never slept over at his place- I'd never felt comfortable in Richard's arms to the point of craving it like I craved this man's.What is happening?! It's only been a frigging day!Well, so much had already happened from Saturday up until now, a Monday morning.And I was going to be stuck with him in the same room for God knows how long.Sigh.It wasn't going

Mokunfayo Badmus:I stood before a flushed, angry lord that was panting like an overworked horse. I would only be lying if I said I wasn't nervous."M–may I come in?" I stuttered with my heart in my mouth and he seemed to snap out of some sort of daze before nodding briskly.As I walked carefully towards the bed he laid on, I wished I had picked another time to visit, a time when I didn't have to face the aftermath of a ferocious argument between two proverbial elephantsThere was no proverbial grass nearby to suffer but me.Sigh.I perched on the bedside stool tentatively, fidgeting with my fingers, terribly wishing for a hole to crawl into. Then I noticed him trying to adjust his position and rushed to help. His sharp intake of air announced that I was doing what I wasn't meant to do."I–I'm so sorry, I thought you needed help," I choked out after withdrawi

Mokunfayo Badmus:As I followed a kinda stout but short guy with a bizarre name and a cast on his arm to the suite I was so glad to leave less than four hours ago, I tried to wrap my head around what'd happened earlier.Mike had saved me, the second time in like twenty four hours. Before he had saved my dignity –which I was ungrateful for– and now he'd put his life on the line to save mine, after I defied him and escaped his prison, which was now a safer place than the public.I had thought he was being overbearing and inconsiderate when he wanted to keep me for a little longer but now that I knew I was a fugitive and he only wanted me to stay hidden and be safe, I felt stupid.I had not only disobeyed him, I had also put him in harm's way.I know disobey is a strong word for what I did but that wasn't the point at the moment, he was hurt and I was the cause.Sigh."Will he be fine?"

It came out as a whisper so I tried again, "what did you just say?""She es–""Don't you fucking repeat it," I growled in annoyance."Sorry boss," A loud honk and yell from the taxi driver behind me, telling me to take my 'keke maruwa' off the road and allow people who 'know how to drive' interrupted my thought's process.Under other circumstances, I would have taught the ideal driver a lesson but my eagerness to get to the hideout and strangle the life out of someone overwhelmed that urge."Boss?""Don't you bloody boss me, by the time I get to the hi– home and she's still not back where she's ought to b

Mokunfayo Badmus:It took all the self control I had in me not to scream and kick at the digital door after him. I was worried about getting to Bisi and all he cared about was a fucking meal?! Did I look hungry to him? Did he think I was going to eat anything he offered me in the stupid hell hole he held me captive in?!More than I was angry at him for being a total asshole, I was angrier at myself for letting him get to me. I'd woken up in his arms moments ago and I wasn't even a little bit scared even if I knew he could end my existence within the twinkle of an eye, I was comfortable instead.He was swiftly crumbling the firm resistance I had built over my emotions and I was feeling comfortable when I should be doing something about it. I didn't like what was going on, Ineeded to leave as soon as possible before things started to get out of hands.The buzzing of the digital door sliding open distracted me from

Almighty Mike;"Should I take care of her?" The question rang out the moment the door finally slid shut. I blatantly ignored the owner of the voice and walked towards the elevator.Being the pest that he was, Fuhad followed immediately."Mike?""She's not a threat." I finally stated with a tone of finality, though I had a feeling that an earful of words I didn't want to hear would follow in quick succession."Seriously Mike?, she's going to file a case, is that not alarming enough?" And I wasn't wrong."She threatened to," I amended grumpily, "a tiny threat that is useless since she's and will continue to be under my shelter as a prisoner till we're convinced she doesn't pose a threat anymore.""Get a grip Mike you're seriously losing it, when did you begin to care about people?" He scoffed bitterly, definitely disgruntled by my unusual choice of a punishment.
