2022-10-29 08:29:00The first visible sign came.
When she brushed her teeth in preparation for bed, Debby spat out sputum into the basin, the red of blood standing stark against the white foam of worked toothpaste.
She rinsed her mouth immediately, her legs shaking. It was probably time for her, with this first indication, to see a doctor like she was advised.
But she didn't want to. She didn't want to have the words thrown directly at her. She didn't want to come face to face with the fact that she was wasting away, even if her body wasn't quite showy of the ailment. Given, she had lost weight, so much that her tightest jeans could fit her properly again, and then, there are these bleeding gums but still.
People would think it's simply mental stress.
But then again, there is that too.
As she plopped into her bedroom, managing only to reach the bed, her legs wobbling with

She proceeded into the building, not paying heed to the whisperings that surrounded her. Or the fingers pointing. Or the sneer she was looked at with.Of course, they'll refer to her as a golddigger.She took more deliberate steps towards the elevator. When she got there, she was trapped with four people, a male who seemed clueless and three women that looked at her like they each wanted to pluck out her eyes and some strands of her hair.She ignored them.On the sixth floor, she met with professor Tedd."Good morning sir.""I have surgery in 20 minutes. Do you want to scrub in?" The man replied, not regarding her message.He said it like a question. She could agree or say no. But she knew it was not entirely a question. neither is it a request? The man was asking her to join him."What's the procedure?"

Sebastian desired that she fed. He didn't know how and when but he felt something move inside him. He felt long-dead flowers bloom alive in his heart.All of the coldness he felt from working like a slave, from being a thug, and having a hard start on life dissolved.Okay, not quite there yet but Sebastian felt them dissolving, shrinking to become a spur of continuous warmth in his chest.Warmth and desire whenever he laid eyes on her.Maybe she was rubbing off on him. Staying around her, watching her for so long, maybe she had found her way around, crept into his mind, and created for herself a soft spot in it, making him identify her as a whole matter entirely.Sebastian knew she would be angry about drugging her. Hell, he was angry at himself too. So much so that after he called the police, he didn't leave the island.He was right there,

Sebastian thought that he had made a mistake.That was the first thing that came to his mind when he saw her.With all the anticipation he felt the night before, so much that he was hardened by his consuming thoughts, without even seeing her, dissolved into thin air.She looked too divine, too ethereal, too porcelain, like fine glassware, sure to put the goddess Venus to shame, even without the littlest of efforts.Sebastian suddenly was second-guessing about going to the party and if he should go with Deborah anymore. He was instantly filled with ideas of what to do with the time, instead of courtesy-going to a party that he didn't want to be at in the first place.She was without her glasses, wearing contacts to aid her sight instead and it made her elfin-shaped face in full view. Just like he had seen her at The wreakin' that night.Hell, he had made

The feel of Sebastian's hands on her waist made her keep quiet. She got the signal he was trying to pass across, he was trying to tell her to not say anything because probably he knew that she was going to open her mouth in his defense.She was subtly reminded again of what he said in the tent that day. He didn't want her making attempts to change the way they saw him.So, instead of talking and saying exactly what was on her mind, she smiled and said "Yes, I am with him for his looks." She paused and took a glance at everyone. Maxwell simply stared at her, not saying a thing. "Amongst his many other qualities." She added."His wealth being the foremost, I presume." A middle-aged woman with her hair in an aristocratic bun said, taking a sip from her cup of wine. "A regular doctor at Hallow-hospital won't be able to afford all of what you're wearing."Debby didn't know who she was but, of course, the

"Good evening ma'am." He had said, standing stiff and at attention. "I am here to pick you up for Mr. Sebastian Lee." "Why?" She had asked her heart breaking. He didn't need to be the one to come for her seeing as their relationship was faux. But then, hadn't he been the one who insisted that he was her boyfriend? "Why isn't he here himself?" "Mr. Lee is busy at the moment." He replied. "He asked me to bring you to him if you're ready to the Halloway residence. He'll be waiting for you." Debby had hoped that Sebastian would be the first person to see her in this out-of-the-world dress that he had brought her. Nevertheless, she followed him to the car, taking her steps one at a time, so she won't stumble. He opened the door to the owner's seat and waited for her to get in, before closing the door, all the while wearing that serious face. He g

Debby stood at a spot as she watched the bizarre Sebastian, or rather Leo walked briskly away from the party venue like a thief that was afraid of getting caught. Leo! because Debby knew that whatever is taking him away from the party that he prepared both himself and her for, will definitely have nothing to do with the personality of Sebastian the loser.“I hate this!” Debby mumbled under her breath as she looked around the hall to see if people were watching what was happening between her and Sebastian. Fortunately for her, people seemed to have settled to the rhythmic music coming from the DJ to have their eyes riveted on her like some were doing moments ago before Lucas walked in with his supposed fiancée, Kathy Arnold.Debby sighed in relief. “At least people are too busy to have noticed how embarrassed I am right now,” she thought to herself.Unknown to her, some people have their eye

I could barely wait any longer for Sebastian to return. I looked at Walter. There he was, his eyes riveted at me as if he was scared that someone might steal me and he has to account for his mistakes when his boss comes. He was not even blinking his eyes.I remembered the first sign of cancer that I had earlier and it sucks. “I might be dying sooner than I think,” the thought hit me. I don’t want to think in that direction but I could not help it.“Dying soon or later, I definitely will not carry this virginity to the grave,” I muttered under my breath, forgetting that Louise was still there by my side.“You’re talking to me?” she asked, her eyes piercing through mine as though a detective trying to read out secrets from a criminal’s eyes.“What? No! I was just…” I found myself telling her that I need to fuck her cousin's

As I drove away from Lucas’ engagement party that night, my heart seemed to have left me to travel alone. I notice that a large part of me was left behind, left behind with Deborah. The scent of her skin lingered in my memory. I never knew the dress I picked would be that good on her. So good was it that I cannot wait to get back into her arms and roam my fingers through the slit all over her body.“Fuck me!” I found myself yelling out loud as I stepped harder on the car so I can get to where I was going on time and come back to the only woman whose thought alone was strong enough to make me get hard, harder than I have ever been even when ramming other ladies.I don’t understand her grip on my heart. Wherever I go, I always want to fall back into her arms. She had charmed me with her love, she might not know it, but my world is gradually revolving around her.“Deborah! I will soon make you

When my phone started ringing, I had the least intuition that it was going to be another twist of events.Now my brother is taken. Since I came to know about this paper, it has been nothing but heartache.“They have my brother,” I announced to Sebastian and Walter after getting off the phone.“Shit!” he cussed.We drive silently for a while, no one was talking. My mind was on freeing my brother and nothing else. They had asked for the Rubik’s cube and the necklace in exchange for him. I have nothing to lose if I hand them over to them. They said they are calling in the next two hours to tell me where to meet them and I must come alone and tell no one. That’s exactly what I am going to do, not even Sebastian would stop me from this.“Don’t worry. I will get your brother back to you with no harm done to him,” Sebastian had assur

Mr. Edwards noticed the look on Lucas’ face. “What is it?” Mr. Edwards asked curiously.“The Rubik’s cube is gone! Yet my office did not look like it was mobbed when I got in this morning! So how did he gain entrance in?”“He played you by using Ace as a distraction to get in,” Jack said.With the Rubik’s cube in hand of Sebastian, Lucas and his grandfather knew that the Halloways Company is bound to fall, just like Leo took out other companies if nothing is done.“Involving police and asking me to standby last night was the biggest mistake you made, Mr. Edwards,” Jack said. “I have my boy, trailing both Sebastian and Debby since they met at the Wreakin’ club. I am the only one that knows how he operates. I would have gotten him last night if I was allowed but you said you don’t trust me.”M

The next morning at the police station, Ace is sitting in the interrogation room. Shortly, Officer Steve walked into the room with a folder and dropped it on the table in front of Ace.“I thought you were the good guy until you started killing innocent people,” Officer Steve said as he sat opposite Ace.Ace chuckled. “You got the wrong guy!” Ace said.Officer Steve looked at him for a while then said, “The records in front of you said otherwise.”“Your records might be correct. But they are not talking about me, they are talking about Leo, and I am not Leo.”“So who are you?”“I am Ace! A-C-E! in case you can’t spell it.”“The information that reached us last night said that Leo was invading the Halloways Hospital. If you are not Leo, then what are you doi

As I wanted to leave the room, my eyes fell on a Rubik’s cube set on a sizable fridge in the corner. “I have seen something like that,” I thought. I tried to remember where and when but I could not so I decided to forget about it and leave.But as I made to go out, my mind was still on the Rubik’s cube. It was as if there was a rope tied to me from the Rubik’s cube, making my going out without dragging it along impossible. So I decided to carry it along.Just as I stepped out of the room to go, I felt a piece of metal touch my head. As I turned, there was Joan with a gun. She moved backward to leave some space between us.“What are you doing with a gun, Joan?”“Nothing. I just want that Rubik’s cube.”“And why should I give it to you?”“Because I have a gun. If you don’t give
My Badboy Lover – Romancing The Thief 130. MOBBING THE HALLOWAYS
When Sebastian initially approached the building, there was no sign of policemen around, not even the hospital security. Not seeing any security in sight only meant one thing to him; they cleared everywhere just to lure him into the building easily, so they could lock down the building and hem him in. But he was not going to make it that easy for them.“This is going to be tougher than I thought.”That was why he changed his plan and decided to create some panic by going behind the building to the powerhouse to knock out the power source.But just when he turned to go, a bright halogen light flashed at him, and every darkness that hid him before left!“Shit! I just caught made before I even started,” Sebastian muttered.“Oh! It’s you!” Ace said and turned off the torch.“Ace what are you doing?”

Sebastian and Debby kept arguing without making any progress. She was determined to go.“You don’t have to be worried about my safety,” Sebastian said. “Jack and Ace are going with me. I already notified them. So you just rest right here.”“If you are going down, I want to be there to go down with you. I’m ready to take this risk.”Debby felt it was a risk worth taking, besides she has cancer anyway. Dying from a bullet or getting caught is better than dying slowly of cancer.“Even if you stop me from going with you, I will still come after you. I love you too much to let you walk right into the danger zone all alone,” Debby persisted.“You are so stubborn,” Sebastian taunted her.“Oh yeah!” Debby chuckled and put her arm on his neck then continued, “A trait I picked up

Mr. Edwards brandished the gun with a mischievous smile on his face then said, “I sent you to do business for me and you were not afraid to run away with my money? You deserve not to be heard but to be killed!”Jack knew what he did. He knew Mr. Edwards was not blabbing. He knew what he can do.“Now tell me why I should not shoot you right now for betraying my trust for you and running away with my money?” Mr. Edwards threatened.Jack was unmoved. “That’s why I’m here,” he said. “I am tired of running. I want to be free, I want to be able to pay you back all the money I stole from the company.”“And you are sure you will be able to pay that money even in your entire lifetime?”“The information I brought is worth more than your entire company. That is nothing compared to whatever I’m owing.&r
My Badboy Lover – Romancing The Thief 127. THE TEARS
When Debby walked through the hospital that day with her things, everyone was looking at her, wondering why she was packing. She was so ashamed.Her life since she joined that hospital kept going up and down, from one trouble to another and now she is been sacked.“Life has been fucking unfair to me. So fucking unfair!” she cussed under her breath.From the corner of her eyes, she could see Joan smiling at her as she made her way through the door. She is probably happy that she lost once again. It was only Brian that came to help her with her things. He stood with her until she entered a taxi and left.She had wanted to go home to pick up her necklace after work before going over to Sebastian’s place but no more. The pain she was feeling was so much that only a good cry with her head on his broad chest could be the only remedy. If it were before, she would be thinking of going
My Badboy Lover – Romancing The Thief 126. YOU ARE FIRED!
It was a Monday morning already. It’s almost two days since Sophia my friend lured me to a club and made me get drunk. All through the weekend, I didn’t go home apart. I had several calls from Jakes saying he wanted to see me but after getting drunk, all the promises I made of coming home to see him were history.But there was something else. Before I left Sebastian’s house for work, he told me to stay away from my house as much as possible and also try to get Jakes to do so. I agreed. But I know I lied to him. I might not be going home to sleep, for the time being, moreover, I like being with him at all times. But I cannot let my necklace in the room. I need to get it.My dad gave it to me a few days before he died. He told me I would be needing that necklace one day but never told me why nor do I know what it would be useful for apart from just wearing it as an ornament.That’s
