“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hide it from you.” She said in a broken tone drawing closer to me but I took a step back.

“I was going to tell you truth when everything is settled, believe me Avery I didn’t mean to hurt you this way.”

But I couldn’t get myself to believe her a second time, “you were aware that I couldn’t remember anything yet you chose to lie to me.”

I felt so betrayed that I couldn’t get myself to look at her, I had my suspicions at first but after she saved me I chose to trust her. I can’t believe her father was responsible and she knew all this while and chose to keep it from me.

Just like Cameron did, why do they all protect their fathers even though they’re not good people?

“I never lied to you, yes my father is guilty but he didn’t do it alone. Colton is his accomplice, you can’t absorb him of blame.”

I turned to Colton who seemed to be enjoying the situation at hand, before I could get the words out he beat me to it, saying, “I did covet your father’s company an

  • Never Love a Maid   Chapter 1

    I have a secret that will get me fired if revealed. My boss and I are sex partners, it started with a one night stand at the club. I turned into my new place of work as a maid the next day but who would've thought that head of the home would be the same man that had me screaming out my lungs the previous night.We ran into each other in the corridors that morning, no questions were asked, it was straight to the bed room next to take off from where we stopped. The rest has been history ever since. I think it's being up to a year now."You have sixty seconds to get lost." Cameron spat lifting his heavy weight off me. I quickly got out of bed and scrambled around for my clothes without saying a word to him. I'm used to him talking to me this way so it doesn't bug me.Once I'm fully clothed again I head for the door but Cameron's voice makes me halt my steps. "Don't forget to avoid being seen, remember the day anyone finds out about us is the day you lose your job." He always makes sure t

    I see myself on a stretcher being wheeled into the hospital building in a rush, by now the pounding in my belly has tripled and I roll over in pain tirelessly. A strong hold comes over me forcing me still. Cameron stares down at me worried, I am shocked that he trailed along. A doctor appears shortly, he tells Cameron to step back which does. The man observes me for a while and yells, "Katherine, Felicia! Meet me in the operating room in five." "What is it? Does she have some sort of strange illness or what." Gina walks into the scene."No, she is in labor." The doctor tells her.The woman is beyond shocked to hear that and so am I, "you mean she's pregnant and about to give birth?" It seems too absurd to be true.He nods his head, "is the father of the child present?""I don't know who-""I'm the father," Cameron steps forward, Gina freezes like one who has just seen a ghost. "What did you just say?" But Cameron's attention is focused on the doctor."Come with me." The doctor says

  • Never Love a Maid   Chapter 3

    I walked into the mansion no longer a maid but the house master's wife, Cameron and I had our marriage registered today he wanted it low-key without inviting anybody, not even his family. They wouldn't have come anyway, although against our union Gina had no choice but to accept me into her home, actually the house is Cameron's but he threatened to move out if she gave no peace and that was the last we heard of her rant.The maids eyed me in envy as I passed them. I returned alone, Cameron said he had some unfinished business in the office and told me not to wait up, it hurt to have him do this on our wedding night when we should be on a honey moon instead but everything about our marriage was transactional I doubt he even sees me as his wife. "How did a woman like you manage to snag my brother?" My path was blocked by Blair, she had her arms crossed and wore a mean girl look."Alcohol?" That was the only thing I could think of, perhaps if Cameron wasn't wasted that night he would've

    When I woke up the next morning Cameron was gone which did not come as a surprise, I did not expect to see him cuddling me. After narrating his heartbreak story to me last night he went on to smash my heart into pieces. Not sure what expected but now I know to have no expectations. I was half way through the stairs when two girls walked by."Good morning ma." They greeted."Morning." I greeted back and they giggled on their way up."She must really think she's the madam of the house." I heard one say to the other. Rather than get angry I continued my walk to the kitchen. "Good thing you're here." Blair faced me as I passed through the door. "Fry me some eggs." I wasn't willing to put up with her nonsense this morning, "you should start frying your eggs yourself or maybe get a maid to do it." "Exactly, I'm simply asking you to do your job you have no right to refuse." She said mischievously. "I'm not a maid Blair." "That's not up to you to decide, fry me two eggs now!""Sure." I

    "Get dressed, we're going out." Cameron walks into the room, he doesn't spare me a glance and starts stripping out of his clothes, the sight is so marvellous that I even drool although I have seen him naked countless of times. "Why are you still seated?" He suddenly paused and faced me with a glare.I sober up on the spot, "I'm sorry, I'll do that now.. wait.. what should I wear?""Just don't dress like a maid." I don't know what that means but I head for the closet to put together whatever I can find. I pick out a white dress I'm a hurry, it is barely above my knees with an audacious split in the middle."What's taking so-" he stops half way when I step into the room, his gaze sweeps me over in a split second, his expression tells me all I need to know but still I would like to hear directly from him."How do I look?" I question hoping to get a compliment. He breaks eye contact coughing, "not bad.""Yeah, sure." I murmur. We took off in his car, he did not bother to let me know wh

    I boldly challenged him, unafraid and oozing confidence, daring him to unleash his worst upon me. “Did you just talk back at me?” His eyes grew darker with each word, as if he couldn't fathom the audacity of my defiance. Sober, I might have cowered and shown respect, but the alcohol flowing through my veins banished any trace of fear."Why am I not allowed to express myself? Or do you wish to transform me into a mindless puppet?" I fearlessly retorted. He blinked back, utterly speechless, unable to comprehend my boldness."You have quite the nerve," he sneered, believing that my newfound status as something more than a mere maid had changed nothing. "You still work for me, and I can easily dismiss you if your work displeases me."I threw my head back and laughed, refusing to take his threat seriously. "You and I both know it's not that simple to get rid of me, considering the circumstances we find ourselves in. Whether you like it or not, Cameron, you're stuck with me forever."As we

    "Why have you only just returned now?" Gina's voice echoed in my ears the moment I crossed the threshold.Cameron paid no attention to her and continued working. Clearly, the question was not meant for him, but for me.I held back from sighing. Wasn't it obvious that Cameron and I went out? Undoubtedly, she was well aware of this fact. Yet, she seemed determined to make things difficult for me, which shouldn't come as a surprise."You're a mother," she snapped, noticing my lack of response. "You should start acting like one. You left your two kids behind and went out to party. You should be ashamed of yourself. Look at the time you're coming back home."She walked over to where I stood and sniffed the air. Instantly, her hand shot up to cover her nose, and she gave me a disgusted look. "I can even smell alcohol on you. How irresponsible can you get?"Last time I checked, drinking wasn't illegal. I'm no longer a minor. I couldn't help but wonder what the actual problem was here. Was th

    As per usual upon awakening, Cameroon was nowhere to be discovered. I had grown accustomed to this, so I didn't let it bother me too much. With a yawn, I rose from my bed and proceeded to change into my morning attire. Descending the stairs, I entered the kitchen in search of sustenance. For some inexplicable reason, I awoke that morning with an insatiable hunger.I found myself in the kitchen, devouring a sandwich, when Blair stormed in with a scowl etched upon her face. "First thing in the morning and you're already on a food hunt. I wonder if you were deprived of nourishment as a child," she sneered.Choosing to ignore her snide comment, I continued to quietly consume my sandwich. I lacked the energy to engage in an argument, especially not this morning. Blair seemed frustrated by my lack of response and forcefully shoved me aside as she walked past. However, even this act failed to elicit a reaction from me.Coming to a halt, she turned to face me. "By the way, I hope you haven't

But Kylie is holding my arm preventing me from a taking a step forward, “don’t do this.” She pleads in a desperate tone, seeming anxious.I turn to Colton, “can she come along?” No doubt with her presence I would feel more safe but before Colton can utter a word Kylie refuses.“I’m not going anywhere near him,” she spat venomously, “even now my skin is crawling in disgust, let’s go Avery. It’s no use listening to him.”But even though I’d like to hear him out, after all I’ve only listened to one side of the story.“It’s not surprising that you act this way,” Colton says, “did you have fun feeding her lies? What? Afraid that I’d expose them?”“What lies?” I ask Kylie but she doesn’t respond, there’s a bitter look on her face as she avoids my gaze. It’s clear she’s keeping something from me. “I can explain,” she finally say

    For the longest time possible, I restrained myself from looking back. However, it soon became unbearable, and I was forced to retract my decision much to my dismay. When I turned around Cameron was no longer behind me. I don’t know why, but this made me upset. I had no strength in me to move further.With my heart rapidly, I leaned against the wall, hoping to catch a break. I spotted two couples walking down the sideways hand in hand, jealousy clouded my vision as I struggle to look awayWhy am I so thirsty for his love? I honestly don’t understand it.I had to gather all my strength to say those words to him and right now I’m the one who is in pain although he didn’t seem to take it too well either I know a man like him won’t be heartbroken for long after all doesn’t he have a mistress back at home?Images of them in bed flash through my brain, and I could not bear the hurt.

    I can feel the pain in his voice, his messy appearance further adds to my strain. I want to embrace him and say all is fine but I can’t seem to move my feet, deep down I’m still upset but I find myself feeling bad for him.What is this called? No idea.“Say something Avery.” Cameron nudges me back to life.My eyes trail up as I draw in a deep sigh, “honestly I don’t know what to say, my heads a mess right now. I want you to leave me alone at the same time I don’t.” I say truthfully even though my heart is racing rapidly, I crave for him to be closer. As if reading my thoughts, Cameron steps forward closing the space between us. He gazes upon me softly, In that moment my world goes still and it feels like there’s only two of us under the vast sky. A tear rolls down my cheek and he wipes it off causing me to shudder, but I don’t push him away secretly enjoying it. Even though my face shows no hint of happiness, because my heart is heavy. “I didn’t realize it back then but what I did

    I don't know why but my first instinct was to run, immediately I laid my eyes on him I descended into a hot chase. I could hear my name being yelled from a distance yet I did not care to look behind.Why am I even running? It's not like I've done anything wrong. In this case I'm the victim, the assailant is his father. If so, what does that make him?I don't know, but I wish there was a way I could find out.Right now I feel lost and confused, I don’t know who or what to believe. Is Kylie telling the truth? Did Cameron really treat me that way? If truly he doesn’t love me why is he running behind me looking like a mess.Though I don’t dare to turn back I feel his eyes on my back, I know he is chasing after me. A part of me wants to stop and confront him on what I’ve heard and another part wants to keep running, too ashamed to face him. Suddenly I feel a sharp pain in my knees causing me to slip and fall, it doesn’t take seconds for Cameron to catch up to me. “Are you okay?” He quest

    Finally everything made sense, no wonder Colton is so eager to find me. He must be under so much tension right now, I can’t imagine what would happen if the documents eventually falls into his hands. That would give him enough shares to overthrow Cameron, and I don’t want to see that happen. “But the thing is, no one knows where the documents are.” Kylie said breaking me from my thoughts. “Perhaps the old Avery might have an idea not you.” She sighed tiredly and I couldn’t help but agree. We’re just as clueless as Colton in this situation, neither of us knows where to begin search from.“You mentioned those shares have been untouched for a while now, honestly I don’t think the old Avery would know.” I say, “wasn’t I maid in the past? If I knew I had so much money lying around, why would I choose to serve others?”She turned her face away from me and scoffed, “I know you well Avery, there’s nothing you wouldn’t do for that man. I wouldn’t be shocked to find out that you knew but dec

    “I don’t think it’s just for you to accuse him like that.”Even though I couldn’t remember, I had a feeling that Cameron wasn’t that bad. I couldn’t resist the urge to defend him. Didn’t I hate him a while ago? What’s happening now. She drew in a deep sigh, “you’re so stupid Avery I can’t believe we are friends.”“Says you,” I rolled my eyes, “I don’t even know who you are, do you think it’s right to accuse my husband in such a manner.”“I’m only trying to help you, what don’t you understand!”“Well if you’re trying to help me stop accusing him without having concrete evidence.”She paused for a moment rolling her eyes through me, “I can tell you don’t believe me, but look into your heart, the memories are in there somewhere.”“I don’t care about those darn memories!” I screamed out loud. Right now the only person I want to see is him, even though he’s one of the reasons why I’m miserable. It feels like only he can alleviate my pain right now.“Listen to me woman!” Kylie grabs my s

    Jake drove us to a fancy hotel in town, as the car came to a halt I alighted ready to walk in when I saw the words CMN boldly written ahead. Turning to face Kylie, “isn’t it Cameron’s?”She smiled back at me and replied, “indeed it is but it won’t be for long.”However that was the least of my concerns right now, even after learning that Colton robbed my family of everything we owned, reclaiming the stolen properties was the last thing on my mind right now. What I desire is to lock him behind bars forever. “Don’t you think it’s risky staying here? What if he finds me? Also I have no money, I can’t afford a place like this.” Pausing to look at her, “and I don’t think you can either.”I only took out little from what Cecilia had given me, the rest was carefully tucked away underneath the bed. Who knew that the motel would catch fire and everything would burn to ashes, now I’m cashless with two mouths to feed. Going to the bank isn’t even an option when I can barely remember my own d

    Just as I was preparing to attack I heard a commotion outside which created a distraction as both men craned their neck to the direction the sound had emerged from while the woman continued to focus of the babies, I couldn’t help but notice how tender and soft she was with them.She didn’t look as bad as the other two, I made a mental note to say a word of gratitude when I finally made it out of here. “Go check what’s happening.” Chubby said to skinny who seemed a bit reluctant but eventually turned walking towards the exit.As the man walked away, he turned to face me, I could see the warning in his eyes. “Don’t you dare attempt anything funny, now tell me where you have hidden the documents.”As I opened my mouth to speak there was a loud bang resembling a gun shot, he quickly scurried to the ground for safety while the woman hid away in a corner. There came another shot, I knew I couldn’t just seat still and wait for them to get to me. Without much effort I easy broke away from t
