Damon Philips and Vanessa Monday have loved each other since they could imagine, but neither of them had the courage to say it out loud. Now Damon is stuck with Jessica. What would become of their love when Jessica suddenly announces that she is pregnant for Damon and somehow gets him to engage her? Would their love scale through all obstacles or would it crash and burn?
View MoreChapter 28Vanessa I have been asleep for as long as I could remember. It was nice to be able to sleep on my bed again, in my home, with the people I love around me.It had been 2 days since I was rescued but sometimes I still feel like I was back there, in pain, fearing for my life. Fortunately, that was all behind me now. The two people that put me in that position had paid their dues. Mr Psycho was shot twice, in the leg and his arm, but he will survive and he will be going to prison for a very long time. He is wanted for very serious crimes before this and from the look of things, he might never come out of prison.Jessica was not so lucky. She was shot in the head by the sniper and died before she could even receive any medical treatment. I felt bad for her, but I shudder to think that if she wasn't dead, then I might have been dead by now. Just then I heard a gentle knock on the door. "It's Damon, are you up?" He asked."Yes, Come in," I said.As he came in I was glad I co
Chapter 27Vanessa Nothing has been the same since my conversation with Jessica. It was like the atmosphere around here took a sharp turn for the worse.It was not like I was exactly happy before or anything like that, it's just that now I was more anxious than I have ever been. I was conscious of every move and every little thing around me. Mr psycho certainly did not help in making me feel any better. He was so distant nowadays, grunting a few orders now and then or leaving me to my fate if I refuse to do something. True to my word, I have not eaten since the other day but I could feel myself getting weaker with every moment that passed. Something that has now become a normal thing was the voices I usually hear behind the door. Certainly all was not well between employer and employee and they were quite loud about it, but all I could fathom was that they were in constant disagreement but I could hardly hear what exactly they were arguing about. I sigh when I recall the second t
Chapter 26Damon The first thing that came to my mind was calling detective Cole, of course I knew how to track a call, that was like computer 101, but I had to let him know because right now I needed all the help I could get and I have to do this the right way.Tracking the call illegally would not go down well with the police department, plus I had to hope for another call, one that was actually long enough for me to track. I tried to think of all these instead of the voice replaying in my head over and over again. Whoever called tried to make sure their voice was not recognizable, hence the reason it was distorted, but I had a strong feeling that I had been wrong about Peter. Whoever was behind this has something more personal to do with me. I was at the centre of this. This person knew me more than I imagined, this was someone very close to me that obviously felt neglected or abandoned. "Who could that be Damon?" Jennifer asked.She came down a few minutes ago and I could see
Chapter 25Damon "What's so interesting about me?!" I asked. I did not like the suspicious look in his eyes, one minute he was calm and attentive and now he looked like a lion about to feed on his prey. He stood up from his seat opposite me and walked closer to where I was, leaning on the desk and gazed intensely at me."You see, while Peter, who you just accused, actually had an alibi, and not just one, because he was out with friends and quite a lot of people confirmed that, you on the other hand have none," he pointed out. And we were back to this again! Why was it so hard for them to see that I could not even imagine hurting Vanessa. They thought so little of me and it seems there was this mistrust that came with my wealth. I thought detective Cole would know better than to have such ideas but apparently I was wrong. Gosh! I could not imagine how I looked right now in his eyes. Here I was trying to convince him that someone else was responsible for this, when he always had h
Chapter 24Damon I have stopped counting the hours since Vanessa was kidnapped, not because I had forgotten, but because thinking about it was a reminder that she has been gone for way too long.I was driving to the police station for no other reason but a mere hunch, a very weak one at that, but unfortunately that was all I had and I was going to use it. This was not the time to allow sentiments get the better of me. I had this gut feeling that was not going away anytime soon until I did something about it.Still, I could have just called detective Cole and informed him, I had his contact for instances like this, but I wanted to get out of the house. I had to breathe some fresh air. I loved the women in the house to death but I just could not bear another minute with them. The tension in the house was so thick that you could cut it with a knife. It was becoming a never ending cycle of Jennifer going more into her shell as each day passed, completely broken because of all that was
Chapter 23VanessaThe only sound in the tiny room was the sound of Jessica's evil laughter. It rang through every corner like the sound of doom.This day has been so full of surprises and it just keeps getting crazier! "Wait, are you saying you're not pregnant?!" I asked, I know it was a stupid question but I just had to be sure."Yes darling, I'm not pregnant! Try to keep up okay," she scoffed like she was already past that."So you lied to Damon! And all this while had him believing he had to take responsibility for something that wasn't even real!" I exclaimed. "Well it would have worked, if only we had gone through with the wedding!" She screamed. "And how exactly would that have worked out?" I asked. "He would have fallen in love with me eventually that's how, and then we would make chubby beautiful babies together, but he refused to touch me since I told him I was pregnant and that kind of spoiled the whole plan," she said. "Didn't you think that he would find out eventual
Chapter 22Vanessa"Well well, it seems I won't be needing this anymore," she said as she took off the mask, running her hand through her red hair.I could not believe my eyes! Of all the people I suspected, she was never even on my list, even though the list was quite short. I have only been with her for a short while that I didn't even know she could do something like this. She was a real spoiled brat, that at least was obvious, but I thought there were limits to the atrocities she could commit, apparently I was very wrong about that. "Wow! I always knew there was something strange about you, but I just didn't pin you as a full blown psychopath," I said with utmost spite."Uhm… your bad I guess, maybe you should have paid closer attention," she retorted. "Why would you do something like this?!" I asked. "Why do we do anything sweetheart…. For love! I'm doing this for love," she replied.Okay this girl was tripping. How am I connected to this when the so called reason she kidnap
Chapter 21 Vanessa I eventually ate the food Mr Psycho provided even though I didn't want to, I was human after all and I know that starving myself would be of no help to me whatsoever. I needed my strength in case there was any opportunity of me escaping from here. There had to be a way around this and I will find it. I could not tell exactly how long I have been here but it was dark outside a few hours ago and now it was quite sunny, the little openings in the window made me aware of these tiny facts. I ate the food quite late, a long while after he brought it to me. Maybe I was trying to spite him because he was being too close and refused to give me any breathing space.He was literally right in front of me like I was going to vanish if he took his eyes off me for a second!He even volunteered to feed me after he made me know that he had no plans to untie me. He was really being beyond cruel! I made sure he knew that there was no way I would allow him to feed me and I wasn'
Chapter 20Damon"How does it feel to lose the one you love?" These words kept on repeating in my mind like a broken record. It meant so much but at the same time revealed so little.One thing was for sure now though… this was certainly not about money. Whoever was behind this had a personal grudge but one which I could not actually decipher. It could no longer be ignored that I was at the center of all this. The note was addressed to me, that was quite obvious. Whoever did this knew about my feelings for Vanessa and it seems that was the main reason she was going through this ordeal. The handwriting on this note was a replica of the one in the previous note, so it was certain that this was from the kidnapper. This person was being vengeful but that was both scary and good. Scary because everything they did would be unpredictable and greatly influenced by emotion, but it was good because they were likely to make stupid quick decisions that would be to our favour. Still no matter
Chapter 1 Vanessa's POVI was on a horse, a beautiful white horse but I was not the one riding it. I had my arm tightly clutched to the rider like my life depended on it.I couldn't see the rider's face but I knew he was male and he had thick brown hair and fine muscles and he was wearing a very familiar perfume… but I just couldn't place exactly how I knew it at this point in time.All of a sudden a red car came behind us in hot pursuit. It looked very scary and had a very scary driver too. She was female, with hair as red as the car she was recklessly driving. Still somehow the weirdest part was that she could never get to us no matter how she tried to maneuver her vehicle.This exact scene continued till I started getting weary of it and was seriously wondering when it would all come to an end, then all of a sudden the all too familiar sound of my alarm clock filled every corner of the tiny room.I shot up immediately, sweating profusely and breathing heavily. I checked the time,
