Mokunfayo Badmus:

I wondered why Fuhad kept staring at me like I'd grown two heads, and at the same time staring like I'd killed his puppy, that was if he even had the heart to keep one. 

"After all I did, it's still him you choose to fuck?" I would have winced at his crudeness if my heavy, numb heart could feel anything, but I could only raise a brow to show that I wasn't quite following what he was talking about. 

I had no doubt about Fuhad's intention towards my body; after the night he'd laced my 7up with something an aphrodisiac and then tried to have sex with me, I had pretty much gotten the memo to stay the fuck away from him. 

However, I didn't understand why he made the statement about choosing Mike to share my bedspace with when I hadn't really had any other choice, o

    Almighty Mike.By the time Angel was done with her narration, she was already a sorry mess of tears. I couldn't tell if she was really mourning the dead murderers or it was just plain sorrow and guilt, but I knew neither was necessary."You see, the thing is, you spaced out for most of the time when these killings were taking place, right?" I questioned to be sure and as if she had been expecting the question, she shook her head vigorously and tried to pull away from my arms."I know what you are trying to do, Mike. But no one else was there that'd be willing to kill that much people for my sake. It was me, Mike! I was on a rampage–""Even Almighty Mike would not have been able to take out that many with a pair of dagger–" She suddenly turned in my arms in

    Mokunfayo Badmus:Even if I would rather they killed me instead of admitting it, I really had been trying to distract myself from the entirety of the transitioning from the last year to this one. I really didn't want to dwell on the fact that the rose coloured glass at which I'd viewed the world in had shattered to a thousand pieces in just one night;That fulfilling my promise to Dante and Bisi and securing a hassle free future for Amaka and Stephen made me feel like crap.Most of all, I didn't want to think of the possibilities of what would happen next; what misfortunes the morning would sweep in. That was why I'd begrudgingly accepted Mike's offer to a few hours of rest without the horrifying nightmares that was sure to come if I dared to sleep alone.However, even those few h

    Mokunfayo Badmus:I was feverish through the drive back to Mike's estate and it wasn't because I was coming down with common cold, I was just too eager to remain calm.There were a lot of questions running through my head; how I felt so sure that I was in love when earlier that day I'd still been questioning my feelings, or how it came to be that my heart chose a murderer to beat for, what the next step was after disclosing to him that I felt the same way he felt for, what the future held for us, if he was going to break it off with Cordelia to be with me…The lots of questions were the kind I didn't have answers to, but for the first time in forever, I wasn't bothered about this fact, I was just very eager to get to Mike and tell him my latest discovery. Seeing the look on his face when I told him I loved him was the

    Mokunfayo Badmus:Regardless of my relative calmness in handling the entire incident that'd just went down in… the asshole's suite, and my rather dramatic exit from his line of sight, I'd barely raced my way to the deserted fire exit on the other end the building before giving into to all the emotions that clamored to be let out.I collapsed on to the top of the rusty staircase, that had collected enough dust to shade my skin a tone lighter, and let all of it out;—The tears.It was first of bitterness and anger; I felt so angry that someone I trusted enough to feel for would actually betray me in such a manner.What manner exactly, y'all aren't even together.

    Cordelia:"Fuhad! I order you to report here right now!" Micheal screamed into the receiver of the intercom for the umpteenth time.And for the umpteenth time as well, I visibly flinched at the murderous intent he seemed to be loaded with.It wasn't as if I was scared of Micheal lashing out at me in frustration when I decided to sit as far away from him as possible and not interfere in his nervous break down since Mokunfayo had left the room.I was perched on the satin sheets of his bed, all jittery like a bundle of nerves, because I felt really bad.Guilt was not an emotion I normally encountered; considering how I'd love half of my life splitting couples and wrecking many homes due to my line of work, but wi

    Almighty Mike.Fuhad, that fucking bastard, had been right; I didn't deserve her.I didn't deserve everything I had either as it came from hurting the people I loved, but admitting all that crap to myself didn't help the hurt go away.If anything, it only doubled up and spread through my entire being that it became very difficult to even breathe. All I needed was another chance to see her one more time and assure her that she was the only woman I had ever loved and will forever love, but I knew the chances of that were very slim now that she was out of the estate.Angel was determined to leave and never come back; it would be very hard to track her whereabouts and she had made it clear that she never wanted to see my face again.

    Almighty Mike:Even after we had now settled into metal benches at the waiting area as the family members for Angel, Trigger still kept staring at me like I'd grown two heads and the other head became permanent. I guess I'd really surprised him by such a show of weakness, but then I'd surprised myself as well.I hadn't expected to throw caution to the wind and sob in Broad daylight, and that in the presence of a subordinate, but I'd had it coming from years of suppressing the urge to;That was why I hadn't been able to stop when the dams broke. The tears flowed freely until the reservoir went dry, but I felt lighter and my head felt clearer to think about positives.Trigger had, in a calmer tone, explained how he'd come to find several people hovering around a deserted expressway

    Almighty Mike.The brightly colored room was deathly silent as both occupants of the room, seated on woven basket chairs that were opposite each other, had busied themselves with a battle of death like stares. Fuhad didn't look like he was going to give up soon, and I definitely wasn't going to back out from a challenge like this without coming up as the victor;At least not a challenge with Fuhad involved."You can not do this Micheal!" He finally thundered without breaking his stare. "You will not even dare–""I can and I will, Fuhad." I blatantly cut him off. "Considering your recent evil deeds and all your illegal activities to which you've funded with the estate's resources, consider yourself lucky that I'm merciful enough to give you a way out."

    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.
