I continued with my next chapter, feeling so convinced that I would finish the book in no time.Chapter ThreeEveryone was astonished when the girl who was just hit by a truck came out of the dismantled shop, with spectres of blood but no sight of a physical injury. " I'm finally in heaven!" she shouted at the onlooking crowd, raising both her hands up like a WWE wrestler that just won a major match in WrestleMania. The driver who had hit her had almost peed in his pants, thinking that he might have killed someone, but when she displayed such insanity in full health, he relaxed his mind. " The mad ones are always the strong ones", he said to himself as he walked his enormous potbelly back into his truck and drove off. She continued strolling the streets, wondering when she'll get to meet face to face with God. The people on the street didn't seem like angels; they had no wings, so they must also be inhabitants of heaven. She walked and walked, happy that she could walk, but
“ But then, tell me, cause I've always wondered, why did you bully me back then in middle school?” I asked Hazel as we both sat in the sitting room spending quality time together after having a hearty breakfast on a Sunday morning. “ Never have I ever” was the movie going on on the television and it was starting to get a little bit boring. “ Well, actually, remember that night that we uh, kissed in your house?” He started. “ The night of the slumber party?” “ Exactly. So after that incident that happened, not the kiss, the bed wet, I thought you weren't going to tell anyone…..”. “ I didn't tell anyone”, I retorted, cutting him off. “ I know, but back then when I got to school the following Monday, on seeing what was written about it on my locker, I thought that perhaps you had broken your promise and told someone”, his tone was apologetic, but hey, I was still mad. “ Wait, so you literally made my life a living hell in middle school because you thought that I had out

Hazel's POV “ We are certainly heading towards a bankruptcy”, I.C corporations financial manager, Mr Kelly had told me on my way to the middle of the week family dinner. “ Look, I told you to calm down, okay? I have everything under control. The company will not go bankrupt”, I said, trying to calm the man on the . other side of the phone who was basically panicking like a pregnant woman whose water just broke. “ You said that a month ago, you also said the same thing a week ago and yet nothing seems to be done with the situation”, he retorted, reminding me of something that had happened between us. “ I have my plans, okay, I do. I just need more time”, I said, bumping up and down a little; Basil must've ran over a speed bump. He was different from others in that aspect. A normal driver would normally slow down when he sees a speed bump, but Basil was sure enough to run over it as if he was racing. “ That plan of yours doesn't seem to notice the fact that we do not have tim

Hunter's POV Have you ever closed your eyes? Have you ever stopped to listen? Have you ever felt alive? As if there's nothing missing? As if you don't need a reason, just letting the day go on and on? I felt all that. Everything, anything, all at once. I could say with my full chest that my life was perfect, that I had everything I ever wanted. But all came crashing down when I heard what Mrs Mcman said. Hazel tried to explain but I just didn't want to listen to anything he was going to say. Everything was a lie. The life I had thought I had achieved, the happiness I thought I had found, the fulfillment I thought I had begotten, all of it was a lie, a lie that I had wished I never found out, a lie that had been so perfect, so demure, so fantastic that living in it forever wouldn't be a problem, but alas I found out, and I certainly had to do something. “ Gosh, how could he? I mean, all this while, how on earth could he?” Bryan said, fuming furiously after I had thoroughly exp
I started writing again, and this was just a chapter of my most recent book.Chapter OneThe CoreWriter's POV She ran as fast as her feet could carry her, almost outrunning the sun on its journey to the west. She got there, and with the strength of a warrior, jumped over the tall fence in one try. She landed on green carpet grass which spread out to a lake. He stood beside the lake, in all his glory of golden yellow skin and black hair, tied up into a bun. She just stood there, staring at him. Even though she had not unlocked her wolf, she could still feel it nudging her to run to him, to embrace him, but she didn't. The encounter from two days ago was still fresh in her memory, the disdainful look he gave her as he ordered his men to beat her to a pulp was still vivid, making her scared of approaching him. She was of the black race, and he didn't accept her as his mate because of that, and she knew it too well, but still couldn't help looking for him. The strings around her h
Hunter's POV I stomped on my accelerator, increasing from 90 km/hr to 110 km/hr on a road that had a 50 km/hr sign. But I couldn't care less, not with the call I had received from my dad's secretary. Everything was becoming blurry, even more blurry as tears rushed down my eyes unknowingly. I overtook vehicles , speeding up like a mad man, honking so loudly to alert other drivers of my surly approach. I was almost thrown over through my car window as I sped over a speed bump, making me realize that I was too much in a haste that I forgot to put on my seatbelt. " This is the State Security Service, we request that you pull over right now", the cops behind me said with their speakers, obviously referring to me. They had started tailing me about three minutes ago, blasting their sirens to make me pull over, but that didn't seem to work so they ventured to their speakers. " The driver in the red Ferrari, pull over right now!" another voice said through the speaker, angrier than

The next day, I came up with an idea for the second chapter and I got to writing.Chapter Two Elizabeth had suffered greatly beyond bounds. If suffering was a person, that person would surely be her. She was so unlucky to have been born to an American mother who came to Italy for a vacation, only to fall in love with a man who had her for one night and left her forever, never to be seen again. Her poor mother, a young college student, couldn't bear to sacrifice her life to bring up a child that came about through a one nightstand, and so she tried every possible means to abort the baby before going back to America. After having a surgical procedure at a quack's place, she went back to the states, thinking that she had left everything behind, only to realize about four months later that the little demon was still growing inside of her. All the drugs she took didn't get her out, and even the surgical procedure wasn't enough. She tried more drugs, but the baby was still hellb
A Nigerian artist, I think Davido or David, once said in his song called ‘ Assurance’ that love is sweet, but when money enter, love us sweeter, and to be frank, nothing has ever been more true. That night was a turning point for us in our marriage. We started living like a real couple, with everything we ever wanted. I moved into Hazel's room, having the leverage to as we pleased. Sex was no longer an everyday something, but we never missed sleeping together and cuddling each other, and when we eventually had sex, it wouldn't just be sex, it was always more of like a spiritual bonding, enabling us to see each other at our most vulnerable and love that about ourselves. Another good thing that came with the spice up in our marriage was that I started writing again. Writing was once a childhood passion of mine and I had written quite a number of unpublished books, but then after my inner happiness was rekindled, I resumed writing again. I got a pen and a book, and just sta
