SCARLETTI miss him, I miss him so much and I want to be with him. If I had any doubts about how I feel about him, that night washed it away.I want more than sex with him, I know I want to be his, I want to go to sleep in his arms and wake up in his cuddle. I want to be there for him in any and in every way that I can but I had to let him go.It was a sacrifice I had to make to save my father. I wish life would just give me a break and accord me some peace but it seems its mission is to repeatedly break me and steal what little peace I manage to find.
TREVOR“I need all of my money back Dahlia,” My voice was cold as ice, no iota of respect in it as I spoke to Scarlett’s mom.I’ve given her a thousand dollars every week for as long as I can fucking remember, to stay close to Scarlett and put me in her ear, fucking soften her up for me but what did I get? Absolutely nothing.I mean I saw the signs when Scarlett only became colder towards me as the time went on but I was being fucking patient, I know Scarlett’s a stubborn ass and her relationship with her mom isn’t so great but she’s still her mom and should have some influence over her.
SCARLETTI can’t fucking believe him. He got Lexi locked up because I slept with Damian? But what could have happened for her to hit him like that, his face looked pretty messed up.I can’t believe how sick Trevor is. After learning I had sex with his uncle, he’s still telling me that he wants me, like I’m some whore who just throws her leg wide open to any available man.Even if I lost all of my self respect and self control and I became Valleyview’s favourite whore, I still would never let him touch me.I get to the police
SCARLETTIt’s been a week and Lexi is still in jail. They won’t even let me see her. I don’t know if she’s fine, how she’s faring or if she’s being fed well. The whole thing just makes me so worried and sad.Mom has gone AWOL again, refusing to pick my calls or reply to my texts despite the fact that I apologised for the incident in the kitchen that day and asked her to help me with money for Lexi’s bail.Right now, I’m at uncle Fraizer’s office, dad’s lawyer friend who stood me up on the day of the school talk show. I’m sure he should be able to help especially since he has someth
DAMIANI observe her and I’m shocked at the sadness that fills her eyes when she glances at me after seeing the termination email the company just sent me.I have to admit that I am a bit shocked myself but I know the old man is only trying to send me some sort of message that he is still in charge.It’s not like I even fucking care.“Get that look off your face, the fuck are you feeling sad for?” I say to her curtly and she frowns at me.
SCARLETTI rush out of the car, my heart squeezing with pain and my eyes dripping with tears as I run into the building, not wanting him to notice me crying.I hate that I have to say such harsh words to him, words that he does not deserve, words that I am forced to tell him to push him away.He asked me to be his friend.Despite everything, he still wants to be around me and he still wants me to be around him but I couldn’t tell him I wanted to be more than just a friend to him.
SCARLETT“I’m not doing it, I’m not going to beg that son of a bitch,” I say angrily to mom as we leave the lawyer’s office.I know she doesn’t know the many atrocious things Trevor has done to me but I at least expect her to get the memo.“Listen to yourself Scarlett, what is more important right now, your ego or Lexi’s freedom?” Mom replies, glancing at me as she manoeuvres through traffic.“Since when did you care about Lexi?” I scoff, rolling my eyes at her.
SCARLETTI feel someone holding my hands tight when I come to, even before I open my eyes. The bed I’m laying in feels so warm and comfy, it reminds me of my old bed in our mansion.I groan softly and open my eyes, surprised to see Delia who rushes me with a hug making me wince.“Thank goodness,” she whispers, pulling away from me.That’s when I notice the gigantic portrait of Damian hanging on the wall behind her and my heart almost jumps out of my chest.
SCARLETT“Mommy huwwy, Bad wolf will catch us,” My two year old daughter, Carmela, drags my hand, giggling as we run into my room, looking for where to hide from the big bad wolf with red scarves tied on our backs.“Roar….I’ll get you,” Damian’s voice comes from under the stairs as his footsteps make heavy thudding noises.This is Carmela’s favourite game and Damian loves nothing more than to make her happy. If there is anyone that can compete with his love for me, it is the love he has for our kids.“They went into mom’s room dad,” Jayden, my annoying and beautiful five year old son yells at the top of his voice from their room which adjoins mine.“Jayden talk too much, now daddy will catch us,” Carmela makes an annoyed face.I smile at her, wondering why she took all of her dad’s features and barely any of mine, the black hair, deep black eyes, full and plump lips, his slightly wide nose and even at just two, the glare she has on her face is so similar to his icy one.“Quick, let’s
SCARLETTI slowly pick up the gun, pointing it at his forehead with my hands trembling. Hate, anger, frustration, all compounding and marauding my thoughts. The memories of everything he did to me, cheating on me with Ashley and humiliating me time and time again for her sake, conniving with her to use me to frame my father and send him to prison, an act that plunged my life into hell and then the verbal, emotional and physical abuse that followed.He doesn’t deserve my forgiveness, I don’t want to feel pity for him, even with the tears streaming down his eyes or with how genuine his words sound. This is Trevor, it could all still be an act to do something more evil but if he hadn’t been wicked and done those things to me, I never would have met my hero, my rock and my shield, my resting place.
TREVORI took a life for her and I became a fugitive, living from hand to mouth and constantly evading capture but not anymore, I need to get out of this city for good.I didn’t want to kill Ashley that day, after I knocked her down to prevent her from shooting Scarlett, she was determined to still do it and while wrestling with her for the gun, I mistakenly pulled the trigger and she died on the spot.I became scared, I panicked and did the only thing I could do, bury her body and run for my life. The first few days were the hardest, having to rely on my boy scout skills and living in the open forest, feeding on fruits and nuts and weaving leaves and vines for shelter.&n
SCARLETT“I demand half of all his cash and assets! I have been married to him for over twenty years, I deserve good compensation,” Dahlia yells at the top of her voice in Dad’s new mansion that he bought for him and his new sweetheart, my mama bear, Lexi.The moment dad got out of prison, I wasted no time in telling him the truth about Dahlia and the woman I now call mom, Lexi. Despite how much Lexi protested, I just could not stop myself. She has loved him for years, refusing to fully give herself to another man and yet she never made a move to snatch him from Dahlia.What kind of a daughter would I be if I just folded my hands and watch my father and mother continue to be betrayed and deceived by a vile woman like Dahlia.
DAMIAN“It’s good to have you back home Damian,” Ana says, smiling at me as I step into the house, feeling the welcoming sense of home, but it’s not the fucking building, it’s the gorgeous angel beside me because I know, anywhere she is will be fucking home to me.I spent the last month and a half at the hospital recuperating and the doctors only just discharged me today but I have to keep going in for weekly check ups for the next three months until my heart gets back to its full functioning capacity.Right now, I have a small tube somewhere in my chest and until I am fully healed and it is removed, I cannot be medically declared fit even though I feel no physical pain or discomfort and my body seems to be functioning properly.&n
DAMIAN“Happy birthday gum gum,” Her father says, stepping out from behind my egghead friend and in a flash, she’s gone from my hand which suddenly makes me feel empty as she rushes and hugs him, crying loudly in his arms.Yesterday, when I woke up, the doctors told me how lucky I was to have survived and that if she hadn’t brought me in when she did, I would have died and that even then, my survival was nothing short of a miracle.I know the only reason I survived was because of her, because I wanted to be with her, to hold her, to love her, to cherish and adore her, my beautiful angel, my sweet kitten.She was the first thing on my mind when I woke up yesterday and it took a l
SCARLETTI walk straight towards him and give him a dirty resounding slap for almost killing me with such a prank before I plunge my lips into his, kissing him with reckless abandon, letting all my emotions flow through the kiss.The pain of these past few weeks, the pent up passion and desire for him, the relief to know he is alive and well, I kiss him with everything.He drops the bouquet, sliding his hands down my waist and squeezing my butt, pressing me into him as his tongue invades my mouth, engaging in a dance of passion and pleasure with my tongue. I let out a salacious moan as he sucks on my tongue and I feel his hard-on press against my thighs, I grab his head, plunging my tongue further into his mouth, loving how he is making me feel.
SCARLETT“We’re trying our best to find them. We found a pool of blood at the scene and after running tests, it matches the blood sample of Ashley Barnes. We have men stationed at every exit of the city and their pictures are on red alert at every airport, train station and seaport. Be rest assured, they will be brought to justice,” The chief of police says to me and Ethan in his office.It has been two weeks and Trevor and Ashley are yet to be found, Damian is still in a state of coma and the company’s lawyers are insisting that unless they get a written or spoken confession from Trevor or Ashley, dad’s case will continue in court.Everyday without Damian gets harder and harder, I have moved back to the mansion and I sleep in his
SCARLETT“Congratulations Misses Cole, you are five weeks pregnant and your baby looks healthy and fine but I’ll write you a prescription for some vitamins and mineral supplements that will help,” the doctor says to me with a big grin.“Thank you,” I reply wryly, my eyes full of sadness. It’s not that I am not happy that I am going to be having a baby but who can be happy bringing a child into this world when the father of the child is tinkering on the brink of life and death.“My husband, how is he? Will he make it?”The doctor takes a deep breath and her smile vanishes. “We have done our best, it is between him and his maker now. It is already a miracle t
