" Stop Justin From Taking up the crown." Nikolai said and shrugged his shoulders. His words did not surprise her at all, she expected it from him. Being a member of the rebels, what good was she expecting from him anyways. But she decided to play along and not expose him. " What do you have in mind?" She seemed interested but Nikolai knew Just what her intention was." That will be Left for you to figure out the way to accomplish that." Nikolai stated." Why should I do that. I will be the queen after Justin succeeds the throne why should I throw that away?" Miranda asked outrightly. She realised that there was more to this deal Nikolai was not telling her . " It's simple,if you fail,you lose him" Nikolai said in all seriousness earning a glare From Miranda. " Are you perhaps threatening me?" Miranda's voice was threateningly cold surprising Justin for a minute before his expressions turned to those of amusement" I wouldn't dare threaten the crowns protector?" Nikolai asked casually a
Ava had been bored for a whole week after Ronald went for a business trip. She had always been craving for a vacation where she could go and relax but here she was free but indoors for a whole week. She had called him earlier today but he had confirmed that he would only arrive in the country the following day. She got bored to the extent of calling her friends requesting a night out but as expected, the three of them were busy with their own things. She decided to do something to distract herself and what's better than cooking.Born from a family where baking was the source of livelihood, Ava had learnt all the recipes. She could bake a variety of snacks. Today, she'll prepare some cookies. She had noticed that Ronald liked eating cookies. At first,she had thought it was a coincidence but he later informed her that all her favourites had become his favourites too over time. He argued it was the only way he could feel connected to her despite their distance. Since Ronald would be ar
" You are such a tease, but I like it. '' Ronald whispered to her ears yet again and Ava wondered what kind of a game he was trying to play here. Without giving her time to react to his words, Ronald grabbed her and pulled her towards himself. He then slammed his lips on her, tasting her sweetness. His skillful tongue thrusted deep into her mouth once granted entrance, exploring every corner of her mouth. Ava felt her knees buckle and turn jelly. She clutched Ronald's shirt tightly as if her Life depended on him. Just a kiss. A kiss from Justin was all it took for her to melt in his hands. It was like his kisses were her stimulant sending her to a sexual fervour.Ava let out a muffled moan amidst their kisses. Ronald was kissing her aggressively as if he was punishing her for whatever reason, but she wasn't complaining. She liked every bit of it. Ronald was itching to explore her whole body so he moved his hands which were resting on her waist and grabbed her butt cheeks squeezing the
Ava's knees were still trembling so Justin offered to support her. That climax had hit her hard, exhausting her. It was the first time she experienced something like that. The feeling was beyond explanation or comprehension. It was a feeling mere words could never explain. Ronald lifted her up the floor and carried her bridal style towards their bedroom. Pushing the door open,he walked towards the bed and placed her carefully on the bed. He knew that she was exhausted so it was impossible for them to go all the way through. His raging manhood was so aroused that it started to be painful. He could only result in taking a cold shower to relieve himself. Ronald was pretty sure that if things proceeded this way,he was bound to have blue balls. He had just taken a step when Ava pulled him back to the bed. He fell straight on top of her. Looking at her face questionably,he waited for her to say what was that for." Let me help you." Ava said blushing. Are knew that he was intending to go and
" Trust me my parents will like you very much, especially my mother. She's excited to meet you. Ever since I told them about you,she has been insisting they come home to meet their daughter in law." David said,his words sounded sincere and Ava believed him. She will have to look for a Way to make her in-laws like her.Sunday arrived. It was the day the girls had agreed to meet up and catch up. It has been two months since the last time they met. Stacy was finally back in the country. Lucia was still preparing for the Summer fashion launch but everything had been taken care of. The only remaining thing was to send invitations to their guests. Ava was free as well as Miranda since now she could walk freely without being afraid of crazy fans ambushing her.After contemplation,they decided to meet at Miranda's house. That was because Miranda was strictly warned by Justin that she can only stay at his watch when with her crazy friends as he called them. Miranda could only agree to his arra
It took several minutes for Lucia to finally come down. She didn't want to break down completely in front of everyone but she couldn't help it. She could only blame the pregnancy hormones for fanning her tears and sobs. After she finally calmed down,Kiel pulled her and sat at the empty coach. The rest of the people had already settled on their seats and were watching the show with interest. Looking at her friends, Miranda realised that Just in a span of two weeks, their lives had changed drastically. She has a fiance herself, Ava had found herself a boyfriend, Lucia was pregnant for God knows how long ànd Stacy,her condition seemed more absurd. It seemed like Stacy had acquired a stalker... No no.. that man was a loyal lap dog, following Stacy wherever he went.This was supposed to be a girl's day out,it has turned into a reunion event." Ava said giggling." Says the one who got a boyfriend and chose to keep us in the dark." Stacy snorted." What are you snorting about, aren't you the
After Stacy realised what she had blurted out , her hands flew straight to her mouth and her eyes widened. Age could see her friends looking at her like she has grown a second head." Hehehehe Stacy? Who would have thought that you are so dominant? How come we never realised that? Ava asked playfully." I don't remember exactly what happened after we arrived at the house, how could I know who was dominant?" Stacy asked, covering her face." What's the deal then? Why is he trailing behind you like a pet?" Miranda questioned." Oh well,he insisted I take responsibility for sleeping with him." Stacy said casually making Lucia spit the juice in her mouth. She coughed violently. She cursed Stacy for saying such things so openly." What?" That was Miranda and Ava's response to her answer." You see? I was even shocked to hear those words. What's worse is that it was his mother who insisted I take responsibility for robbing him of his virginity. You can't believe how shocked I was but I coul
" The baby obviously has a father and from the look of things, he's willing to do anything to have both you and your baby. He loves you Miranda so you can give your baby a stable family." Stacy said, looking her in the eye." You don't understand,do you? I am already engaged to someone else, although there's no love between us, he's my fiance. If word got out that I am pregnant,not only will I be in trouble but the father also. I Love him, that's why I can't keep this baby. The three of us will never be safe. Even if my father let's us go, that Man has a black heart,he won't take the news lying down." Lucia explained. How could she make them understand from her point of view? How can she explain to them that Kiel will be dead before he knows it if he was identified as the father of her child. Lucia knew there was a possibility that even the baby would be in danger. She wouldn't be safe either." You could have talked to us, Lucia. Every problem has a solution. What you need to do is
After the glaring contest ended, Justin helped Ezekiel to the house. They all sat on the couches and silence reigned in the house. No one said anything, nothing could be said either way." Now that we have found Ezekiel,I think we should leave the couple alone. I am sure they have a lot to say to each other." Miranda finally proposed and they all agreed. Minutes later, only Ezekiel and Lucia remained in the house." Why honey. Why didn't you tell me?" Lucia tried to gather her composure and try not to break down in front of Ezekiel. At this point,she understood that he needed her support more than ever." I thought this is the best way to not burden you. I knew that I would lose my eyesight anytime soon. I am also about to leave this world. What's wrong with wanting to spend my last days alone?" Ezekiel replied. He didn't like this topic but he knew he couldn't avoid talking about it either." If it was me in this situation, will you abandon me?" Lucia Inquired calmly." Ofcourse I wouldn'
One week. Two weeks and the news about Ezekiel's whereabouts never reached the girl's ears. They followed the lawyer who was the legal advisor of Ezekiel and the Hawk construction company but never got to trace Ezekiel. The newly appointed CEO also refused to say anything about Ezekiel's whereabouts. The secretary knew nothing about his boss' departure.Lucia tried begging Ezekiel's parents but they refused to talk saying they respected their son's decision. The four girls were seated together with their fiances and husbands. They had tried looking everywhere for Ezekiel all in vain ." He must be somewhere in the country. I already checked every record from the airport. Ezekiel never Left this country,but where could he be hiding?" Miranda wondered out loud."Isn't there a place, Maybe a property he bought secretly?" Ronald asked Justin who had a contemplating look on his face." Now that you mention it,he once talked about a beach house he liked and was planning to buy. Back then he
While they were still contemplating on where to start their investigation,the doorbell rang." I'll get that, " Ava said, walking downstairs. Looking through the peephole,they saw Lucia's parents standing at the door,worry evident in their eyes. She opened the door and offered them a polite smile." Aunty, uncle you are here." She greeted with a bow." Yeah,we came as soon as we got the letter. What's happening here my daughter?" Mrs Mendez asked. To her,the four Ladies passed as her daughters." A letter? From Who?" Ava asked, puzzled." From Ezekiel. He said he wanted to officially break the engagement and set Lucia free. He also talked about taking care of his daughter for him." Mrs Mendez replied." It seems he was really prepared to leave." Ava mumbled but her words were caught by Mr Mendez." What do you mean dear, where is he going and why does he have to cancel the engagement if he would be coming back." Mr Mendez asked, puzzled." Aunty, uncle it seems like Ezekiel is not com
" I Know by the time you get this letter I will be away,far away from you and my daughter but will be thinking about you.I am sorry my love,I know sorry will not fix anything and you must be cursing me for being a scumbag, which I am .I love you Lucia but I will not become a burden in your Life just because I love you. I set you free,live your Life and take care of our daughter. I already sent an engagement cancellation request to your parents and explained myself. I hope you can forgive me.All arrangements for her future have been made,you don't have to worry about her finances, ofcourse I know that's the least of your worries.I left a video,let her watch it when she turns twelve,tell her that Daddy loves her the most and most importantly, don't come looking for me."Ezekiel.By the time she finished reading the letter, streams of tears were flowing down, wetting her clothes. So that's it? Was that the end of it all? Why didn't he wait for her and tell her those words instead of l
, After dropping Lucia off to work, Ezekiel went straight to the office. He had a few things to do before taking his leave away from his family, his love. He ringed his lawyer and instructed him to prepare a ownership transfer of all his properties, including the company.He also called a number and when the call was connected,he briefly said. " Meet me at my private Villa by the beach tonight."Arriving at the office,he called his secretary to give him a few instructions." I have transferred ten percent of the company shares to your name. I am resigning and never coming back. Please be here to guide the person who will take over after me and probably when my heir finally succeeds, support him too. Take care of yourself and your young madam while I am away." Ezekiel instructed his secretary to widen his eyes in astonishment." Boss,are you going anywhere? Why don't you let me accompany you?" He asked. After working with Ezekiel for years,he had gotten used to him. Their relationship
Ezekiel thanked the doctor for keeping his health condition from Lucia but the doctor informed him that he did it for her. Seeing that she was pregnant and knew nothing about his condition,he decided to keep it a secret from her. He then urged him to break the news to her because according to his diagnosis,he barely had two months to live. Ezekiel assured him that he would definitely discuss the matter with Lucia and thanked him yet again before leaving to Join Lucia who was waiting for him in the waiting lobby." That took you a long time to just say thank you." Lucia commented. He had been gone for fifteen minutes which according to her was a long time for just a thank you." He was occupied and I had to wait for him." Ezekiel replied casually trying to keep a straight face. Lucia didn't probe further and dropped the topic. She was so exhausted and jet lagged that she went to bed immediately after they got home.After ensuring that she was asleep, Ezekiel took his phone and went to
Tomorrow marked the second week of their long vacation. Ezekiel was very secretive of their last destination. He told Lucia that it was meant to be a surprise for them and he didn't reveal until they were receiving their boarding pass. Upon checking their last visiting destination, Lucia's eyes widened with both surprise and excitement. Of all places, Ezekiel decided to close their vacation by taking her to Africa and precisely to Kenya,her dream country." Honey,did you do this on purpose?" She asked,tears of happiness streaming down without restraint. Ste was deeply touched by his consideration. Along the way he had taken her to places sfe wished to visit but she never in her wildest dreams think that he would take her to visit Kenya as their last destination. She couldn't help but kiss him In Front of the people." This was supposed to be our vacation, not just mine. I have known for a long time that you have always dreamt of visiting that country so I chose it as our last destinat
The following morning, Ezekiel was the first to wake up. By the time Lucia woke up,she found Ezekiel ready with two packed suitcases." Good morning my Queen." Ezekiel greeted pecking her lips." Morning." Lucia replied, eyeing him then added," going somewhere?" She inquired. Yesterday,he didn't mention going anywhere. What was more surprising was the fact that one of the suitcases belonged to her." Yes,we are going somewhere." Ezekiel replied with a smile on his face. After last night,he figured out that before going to meet his maker,he might as well fulfil some of the wishes piled up. He had always wanted to tour the world with the woman he loved. He still had like three weeks before completely losing his sight,he might as well take advantage of that available time and fulfil that wish." You didn't mention something about that yesterday!" Lucia stated." I decided on it overnight. I want to take you on a vacation as we tour the world together. After this month,I'll be busy with c
Lucia had this unsettling feeling that something was up with Ezekiel but she couldn't say what exactly. How did she know? His frequent out of mind moments. She had caught him staring at her with pity filled eyes. Sometimes,his expressions would spell sorry. She couldn't quite understand why he looked sorry towards her.Pushing those thoughts at the back of her mind,she decided to go prepare something for him to eat once he woke up. He had been the one taking care of her all these days so while he rested, she figured out she should return the favour. Another reason was because she had noticed that his body was declining and his appetite poor. These days,he hardly eats anything and would always say he's full. That was alarming according to LuciaShe cooked his favourite chicken rice and veggies. She didn't forget to prepare pumpkin soup which was known for increasing appetite.Evening came and Kiel had slept for six good hours, something that added more to Lucia's suspicion. Despite how
