~Zane
All I could see was his face and I kept hitting and hitting it till the chains cut off and the bag fell off. Everybody turned to look at me, “Sorry, carry on with your exercise,” I mumbled.
I picked up the bag and went to put it by the side of the room so it wouldn’t obstruct anybody. This damage would be taken out of my paycheck. I wiped the seat off my body with the handcloth and grabbed my bag.
“I can’t remember the last time you destroyed something in here,” I knew that voice from anywhere. It was Andrea, the gym owner. I came here a lot and after the accident happened, this was my fighting ground before he created the fighting ring.
I used to destroy a lot of his equipment here, especially the punching bag. I mistakenly punched his face one time and he kicked me out of his gym. I hardly came here anymore but I needed to let out my frustration.
“That’s coming out of your check,&r
~NiveaI turned but I couldn’t see anybody because it was so dark everywhere. I could only see a shadow and then the person stopped walking. I pulled my legs out of the pool and stood up but I couldn't see the shadow anymore.Goosebumps erupted from my skin, “Who’s there?” I called out but nobody said anything.Was my eyes playing tricks on me? I think it’s time for me to go in, I’ve stayed out long enough.I turned to grab my shawl on the ground but couldn’t see it anymore. I looked down the water to see if it fell inside but it wasn’t there.My heart started to beat faster and I was starting to panic, “Looking for this?” A voice said beside me and I jumped in fright. I slipped and was about to fall but he grabbed my waist and hand to steady me.I stared up to see it was bloody Zane. “What the fuck?” I pulled away from him, placing my hands on my chest
~ZaneMy heart was breaking because I could see the pain in her eyes, the pain my father caused. The trauma she was going to have to live with for the rest of her life. I was scared to touch her. What if I did something that reminded her of my father? What if she flinches, thinking I was my father?I didn't know how to touch her the right way anymore without feeling guilty for what my dad did. I couldn't even believe I was related to that monster. I felt so ashamed.How did she endure such cruelty from him? I was freaking out inside knowing this was not the first he had done it, nor would it be the last.I wanted to protect her from him. I needed to speed up the investigation so he could be locked away in prison where he belonged and she could be free from his grasp.I watched as she lifted my hand and placed it on her breast. I wanted to take it away but I couldn't. I was going to do what she wanted if that was what would make her feel
~NiveaI couldn't believe I cried in front of Zane after a mind-blowing orgasm.How embarrassing. But that was neededI had been bottling up my feelings and it had just been piling up. He didn’t freak out. I actually thought he was going to. Crying after sex? I was so damaged.I also haven’t slept so calmly since Thomas did that, always being on edge.Sometimes it lasted for a week, with me always jumping in fright in my sleep when someone touched me because of the fear I felt of him lurking around to just rape me again. But being with Zane, after the way he cherished and loved my body, made me sleep like a baby.The bastard even had the guts to send an enormous amount of money to my account the next day. I didn't think he felt guilty though. He did that to remind me of the slut I was to him. Always being degraded as usual.I have been transferring the money he sends me into a different account, waiting for it
~Nivea“Nah, I’m gonna keep 'em,” he grinned devilishly.“Don’t start Zane, I need it. My skirt is really short, I can’t afford flashing my bum or coochie out in public"“I’m sure you’d be careful love” he kissed my forehead and strolled out.My mouth was still open in shock, as I watched him leave. I couldn't believe he just said that and kept my panties in his pocket.Lifting my skirt up, I went to do my business and wash up in the bathroom, then I reapplied my lipgloss and rearranged my hair. He really pulled my hair though, and held my hands too tight. I could see the red marks on my wrist and I loved it.Now, this was the kind of mark you would proudly show off and not the ones Thomas gave to me.I picked up my bag and headed straight to the cafeteria. I saw Leo chatting happily with Nate, Zane was on his phone and Steve was throwing daggers at Nate. I got th
~NiveaWho the hell was she? And why was she sitting so comfortably on Zane, and even had the guts to kiss him boldly in front of us?“Get a room,” Leo rolled her eyes and groaned.The girl pulled their lips apart, grinding on Zane, “I missed you so much baby, did you miss too?” she squealed.Baby?“Nobody did. You should have just stayed there and started a new life instead of coming back,” Leo grumbled.I was the only one whose eyes were wide in shock like the kiss and over-familiarity she had going on with Zane was completely a normal thing for a stranger to do. Then it dawned on me that everybody knew her, apparently they all knew who she was except me.“Still mean Leo I see,” the girl smirked. “I thought you would be nicer but I guess I assumed wrong”I just watched the interactions she had with everybody, especially with Zane, all the touching she was doing
~Nivea“Hey, don’t spare any deets, I've seen how handsome he looks, and I also saw you on the front page magazine with the hot footballer Ryan,” she beamed, her eyes twinkling with excitement.“Yeah...” I didn’t even know it had gotten to the news.“It was everywhere until it mysteriously disappeared. How did he take it?” she asked.I looked down at my hands, avoiding her eyes. I couldn't lie to her face, ”Yeah, he didn’t handle it well but he understood that I was drunk,” I lied with a small smile on my face. I was sure the disappearance had something to do with Thomas. I guess he must have handled the scandal before it got worse.“How the fuck are you so updated?” I had to ask. “I’m sick, not dead plus I have a phone that still works,” she said sarcastically. “And of course, I have to keep up with the tabloids. You see that” She pointed to a stack of magazines. “Peter brings me one every day,” she grinned. “On first name basis I see,” I smiled. Her cheeks turned pink. She found h
~ZaneSeeing Trish here, threw me off, I didn’t know she was back already. I couldn’t push her off me when she sat on my thighs and pulled me for a kiss, that would be too embarrassing. She was the only one who I was the closest to after Steve. She helped me a lot, especially during my addiction phase. She could be a bitch but she was my friend.I could feel Nivea’s eyes on me, she was burning a hole through my head with her glare. I avoided looking at her and put all my attention on Trish. I was sure she thought I was hiding things from her. I just didn’t think to mention my fuck buddy was back.I loved how she didn’t allow Trish to walk all over her, which shocked Trish to the bone. No one ever dared to talk back at her. The corners of my lips quirked up in a halfway smile. Trish noticed me smiling and hit my shoulders for laughing at her.Nivea excused herself and Leo also followed her out.“But, T
~ZaneSo, I had a girlfriend and I was just finding out? How interesting.“Cheating? When did you ask me out?” I teased.“I think you’ve become delusional,” I said, pulling off my shirt and dumping it in the laundry basket.Cheating? We were never a thing so why would that thought even get into her head? Where was all this coming from?“I’m serious Zane, it’s high time we become serious,” I looked at her to see there was no trace of a joke in her eyes. She was dead serious. What had gotten into her?!“I don’t do relationships and you know that,” I muttered, pulled off my trousers, and flung on the chair. I slid under the duvet and scrolled through my phone. I was not in the mood for this conversation right now.“Aren’t you here so we can catch up? Why are we talking about a relationship?”“I want something more seri
~NiveaI shook that thought out of my head. No. He couldn't do that to me. I paused. Or could he? She came again this time, and I shook my head that I wasn’t ready yet but she looked at me sadly, “My boss is literally going to kick you out if you don’t order anything,” she said bluntly.“But I am waiting for someone,” I groaned. Repeating this was getting tiring.“Girl, we both know your date is not going to show up, so you either have a wonderful meal or you leave. We need more free tables,” she gave me an intense look.I couldn't leave now, that would be so embarrassing, so I decided to just place an order. I was starting to get hungry anyways. I settled for their chicken pasta and more wine. I needed alcohol in my system to go through this. It didn’t help that I was the only single person here, the rest were all couples and they weren’t scared of going all full on PDA here.By the time I was done and had finished two bottles of wine, I accepted that it was over between us, not t
~NiveaI froze on the spot as my head reeled in what she just said. “Oh, I've got something even better,” she gushed. “You were having an affair with your husband's son, and that’s how you all ended up together. What a perfect soap opera that would be, bye," she chuckled and waved, walking away.She came here just to plant these things in my head and now her mission was accomplished because it stuck. I tried my hardest to keep up the good mood, but Zane noticed and asked what was wrong. I lied and said I was just too tired.He immediately called the driver, we said goodbye to everybody and left. We were supposed to go to the after party but he didn’t want to leave me all alone. And this was why I wanted to end this. So I wouldn't stop him from having fun and experiencing life. I didn't want to be a burden to him, so I made up my mind.On our way home, I couldn't hide it anymore. My mood was off, and my expression was screaming sadness“I know you aren’t tired, so spit it out. Did Fi
~ZaneI woke up in the hospital. I could hear voices, more like whispers, that sounded like they didn’t want to wake me up. I tried opening my eyes but it felt so heavy, so I pushed myself, fluttering my eyes open and the lights attacked me. I groaned in pain and quickly closed it back.“He is awake!” I heard Leonora’s voice, and the light became dimmer. “Water,” I croaked. My throat was so parched, I needed water badly. I turned to the side and saw my beautiful Nivea. She held up a glass of water to me, a straw in it. I sipped it greedily.“How long have I been out for?” I asked.“Just a week,” Nivea said in a low voice, as she sat on the chair close to me.“A week!”, I shot up but there were different machines attached to my body so I couldn't sit up fully.“Slow down Zane,” she warned.“What about the case? Was Thomas caught?” he couldn’t have escaped after all the work I and Steve put into getting the evidence.“We moved the hearing till when you have fully recovered,” She strai
~ZaneI paced the room, breathing hard, “They searched her and probably left it here,”I couldn't lose her.“How about the plate numbers you were tracking?” I asked Steve. “Smart ass, they changed cars, and we don’t know the current car’s plate number they are driving with so we can’t track them,”“Shit!” I pulled at my hair.“I’ll alert the police and see if the private investigator has found anything on her yet,” he muttered and hung up.We were back to square one. This was just a dead end. I couldn't keep lying around doing nothing while she was still missing. I kicked off the papers lying on my feet and it went flying and that was when I saw something red.I walked over and picked up the stained paper, it smelled like blood. Oh no! This only means that she was hurt. I stared closer at it, it looked like a drawing but I couldn't figure it out yet. I looked closer at it, it looked like a boat, and then it clicked. They were taking her to a port my father had. But he hardly used it
~ZaneThe color drained out of her face, “What?” she screamed. “That’s not possible,” tears welled up in her eyes instantly. “How did that happen? I just saw her enter a car and I thought you were the one who came to pick her up,” Max retreated, giving us the privacy we needed, and shut the door behind him.My problem was why she would enter a strange car freely without informing me first. Something didn’t add up.“That was clearly not me. She just called me a few minutes ago and I heard her struggling in the background before I was cut short. What type of car did she go in?” I rushed out.“A Range Rover Sport I think,” she hiccuped.“Oh God,” she sat on her bed, tears streaming down her face already. “Who would want to do that to her?’ Her hands covered her mouth.“My father," I muttered.“Why would he do that?” her face contorted with confusion, her forehead creased with frown lines. “She probably didn’t tell you the full gist but he is very dangerous. I need to leave now, we need
~NiveaI woke up and the car was still moving. This time my hands and legs were tied. Looking out the window, I couldn't see a single building, just tall trees. I couldn’t recognize this place.“Where are we?” I asked, my voice hoarse. “I need water,” I eyed the water bottle in the brown head guy’s hand. “Please…”, I pleaded, coughing so hard.Whatever they put in that cloth was too harsh and it affected my throat because I was screaming into it before I passed out.He shrugged and passed me the water. “Better drink enough because when we get to where we are going, there’s no niceness,” I quickly opened it and greedily drank from the bottle, and then I poured the rest on my face.I looked at the rope binding my hands carefully. I needed to find a way to undo them, so probably when I was all alone, I could find a way to escape. I spotted my phone lying on the floor close to the door but I needed a distraction to pick it up without them noticing.“How much do you want? I’ll double what
~NiveaI was dreading going to see Leonora. I called her a few times but she was with Steve for the weekend, so I had to wait till she was home and alone before I could talk to her. She texted me today, saying she was free.I reluctantly started getting ready to leave. I dragged my feet to the bathroom to shower, then I stood in front of my closet staring at my clothes. What outfit should I wear that would go with the theme for today, 'going to be friendless soon’?I didn't have the strength to do anything to my face. I haven't been sleeping well as I have been having terrible nightmares lately. It was either I ended up dead or Zane did and funny enough I was more scared for Zane’s life than mine. I had kind of accepted that something bad was going to happen to me before this ended.Zane noticed something was wrong every time we spoke, so I had to lie to him every time we video-called that it was all right. He pointed out my eye bags one day and since then, I have been using makeup t
~NiveaEverything was so rushed. I went home with Zane, and I gathered my whole family and we moved away from the house to a very guarded apartment. It was two times the size of our home, I was so speechless but Nova was ecstatic alongside my stepmom.I pulled Zane to the corner, “How did you get this so quickly? And how much so I can pay you back?”He scratched his head, and looked to the ground, “I own it,” he muttered.“What?” my voice raised.“I have been planning this for a while, okay? I made investments and bought houses around the world with the money I earned from wrestling, I have enough money to start my own company after I tarnished my father's. I don't want to be associated with the devil,” he grumbled.Geez! I didn’t know he had been planning this for a long time and the fact that he was this wealthy on his own.My dad was so skeptical, he kept asking why we were moving. I knew he loved our house so much, there were a lot of memories, especially with my mum, so I made su
~ZaneI was going to make sure this worked out. I was never going to lose her and since I had her on my team now, it would be easier to get any documents my father kept hidden. I kissed her nervously, my hands roaming down her body.She was so impatient this time. She reached down and positioned herself on top of me, slowly coating me with her wetness, then sank down on me, taking me in deep, and a sigh left her lips.My hands dug into her hips as her pussy walls swallowed me whole.She fluttered her eyes open, staring at me with her piercing green eyes and she maintained eye contact with me, as she went up and down on me, her lips slightly parted as she sighed. Her hands stayed on my shoulders and she bit her lower lips, a hiss of pleasure escaping her mouth. Her expressions were driving me crazy.It was so turned on, hardening even more as she got wetter and wetter. I was falling in love with the sloppy sounds we made as I drove into
