Hot tears rolled down her cheeks as she tried to hold it back.

“For how long has this been going on?”

“About a month now.” Chloe muttered.

“Is it getting really serious? Can I see the doctor's report.”

“A bit. The doctor's report says she is diagnosed with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia. We've spent all we had on ATRA and it's not really effective. Now, the bottom line is, we need some money for the initial chemotherapy.”

“How much are we considering here?”

“About two hundred thousand dollars.”

“Two hundred what? Damn it Chloe!” She gritted her teeth. “Where do we get such an amount of money from? I barely earn upto a thousand dollars in five months.”

“I know sis.” She shrieked with an idea. “Uhm, I have an idea.”

“What's that?” Cassie replied eagerly.

“I was hoping you could ask your boss but since you said you two broke up, you could transfer the money from the company's account under his name, then pay back later.”

“You're out of your mind! How dare you come up with such an unscrupu

    After being glued to the laptop screen for some hours, she decided to take a break. That was how it was for her when there were no meetings for the day. As soon as her gaze met the bouquet on her desk again, she thought about Marcus. He hadn't come to see her yet, or maybe he wasn't even coming after their little fight in the morning. He had disposed off some of her properties, given to her by her late dad without her consent and when she tried to tell him how valuable they were despite them looking old, he flared up. Keeping malice wasn't her thing. She searched for her phone to call him, hoping to thank him for the flowers thereafter.“How's your lazy ass coping with work today?”“Much better than how your diligent ass is.” “Coming down for lunch? You know we missed breakfast.”“Not hungry.” He replied curtly.“Really? No issues then, I called to say thank you for the flowers. They are lovely.”“What flowers are you talking about?”Her voice went silent over the phone.“Cass?”“Ohh

    “Marc, you have to go now.” Cassie shrieked.“What if–”“Damn the what ifs! She's fuckin' depressed and she needs help. Alert me if anything goes awry, okay? And please talk to her.”“Okay, love you.”“Love you too. Text me when she's calm.”In no time, he was at Lena's house. Her apartment was small but comfortable and well-furnished. He pushed the door open and went in, shocked to see the whole damage she had done in the living room.“Lena!” “Lena!!” He yelled the second time and dived into her room.He searched the room but still couldn't find any imprint of her. As he turned to leave, he heard a faint sound in the restroom.He followed suit and found her throwing up in the bathroom. “Lena!” He walked towards her and held up her hair immediately.“What the fuck is going on here! What are you up to?” He asked fetching her a glass of water after she was done throwing up.“Thank you for coming.” She replied lazily.“You do realize I don't stay in a messy environment right?

    “You are not leaving me here alone, are you? Besides, it's raining cat and dog outside.”“I came with my car.”“I know, right? You could stay over at my place. You know, we have a lot to talk about. Tell her you're spending the night here.”“Okay, she is requesting for a video call to know if I'm truly safe with you. Get me my shirt.”“Here babe. Go on with it.”When he ended the call with Cassie, she took off his shirt and climbed atop him, laying on his naked body. He enjoyed the feel of their warm skin together and wrapped his arms around her.“Did you plan all of these just to get me?” He asked curiously.“Not really, I was heartbroken and I've always been very unlucky in relationships ever since we broke up. Maybe we were just meant to be together.” She smiled and kissed his chest.“How did you know about the text?”“What text?”“My..my little secret.”“Oh, never mind. I just guessed.”“Lena?”“Yeah babe.”“Tell me the truth. No one knows about it. Are you stalking me or somethin

    “Say it Cassie.”She blinked back a tear and undid the first three buttons of his shirt, grazing her soft fingers along his sculpted chest.She had shocked him, his head jerked back slightly.As their eyes met, the world seemed to fade away. She felt his hand gently caress her cheek, his fingers tracing a line down her jawline. Her heart raced as his lips met hers, soft and gentle at first, then with a growing intensity. A tingling sensation ran through her body. His hands gently cupped her face as he deepened the kiss, his lips moving against hers with a gentle urgency. In that moment, nothing else mattered - no worries, no fears, no past, no future. There was only the heat of the moment, the electricity between them, and the pure, carnal unbridled passion of their kiss. The kiss was full of hunger and passion, a dance of two hearts in perfect harmony. She felt his arms wrap around her, pulling her closer as they lost themselves in the moment.It lasted for what felt like an eterni

    “Shit!” Cassie cursed, tossing over the fifth dress she had worn. That was one of her greatest flaws, inability to make a good choice when it involved dates, parties, clubs and everything else she wasn't used to.Out of nowhere, the doorbell rang.“Oh my God! He's here.” She picked up the one of the dresses she had tossed away earlier, wore it and scrambled to the door.“Can you give me five minutes? I'm almost ready.” She was about to slam the door when the delivery guy held back.“I'm here to deliver a package.”“What package?”“Here, check for yourself.” He stretched it to her and she stared at him intently before receiving it. “Thanks. Who is this coming from?”“I'll take my leave now.” He bowed and turned away.She sighed and hurried off to check what was in it.She definitely knew who the package was coming from and all she could think of was flowers. Out of curiosity, she tore it apart and a blue, shiny, silk dress caught her attention.She took it out and placed it on her bo

    He knew Cassie didn't concur to the idea of spending the night at his pent house but after what happened at the tent, he didn't think it was wise to leave her alone at her apartment, especially when Marcus wasn't around. They had called the police to make a report to just to ensure everyone else there was safe. Maybe those guys weren't even after them. Who knows?He poured himself a glass of red wine and gulped down on it continuously, unable to focus on the work he was doing.“You're still awake?” Cassie peeped into his study. The only light illuminating the room was the light from his laptop. She could see his figure in the dark room leaning back on the chair. She turned on the lights and walked to where he was seated, took the glass from his hand and downed its contents.“That was a bit too strong for you.” He groaned.“I needed it. Why are you still awake?”“I'm having a hard time thinking straight here.” He rubbed his temples. “Stop thinking and let the police handle it. Which

    Things had been slightly tense between them since their date night turned out badly. He promised to make it up to her but this time, a deep meaning was attached to it.“Marcus’ eyes tracked her as she sat down quietly across the table.“Why are you so deep in thoughts?”Cassie was silent“Say something.”“We're having dinner together with his family.”“Oh really? That's a good idea. It's high time he made his feelings known.“Do you think your mom would like me?” “Of course, who wouldn't? You're such a lovely person.”“Aww, thank you.” She blushed.“So it's about to get down?”“No it's not.”“Yes it is.”“Oh please!” She scoffed.Marcus laughed curtly.“What's up with Lena? Nick suggested you invite her over if you're coming for dinner.”“He told you that?”“Definitely, your mom wants a general family dinner not just for us. Besides, I want to meet your hot girlfriend too.” She teased.“Meeting my family would mean things are really working out.”“Ain't things working out?” She squi

It's a pleasure meeting you.” She smiled at Lena.“More of my pleasure ma'am.” She hugged her and followed her to the table, saying hello to her husband.“You're most welcome, have a seat.” Nick's father said firmly.“Hello Cassie.” She extended her hand to her.“Hi Lena.” She took it without hesitating.“I was looking forward to the day I finally meet you and here we are.” Lena exclaimed.“Dhurr!

We would like to host her alongside her husband in our hotseat today.” A resounding round of applause followed the statement as Cassie stepped out before the crowd with a large smile beaming across her face.

She waved politely and was treated to the red carpet to meet the host who had reserved a special seat for her, next to that of her husband, across the table.“Welcome once again Mr and Mrs Nicholas Grey, we are pleased to have you in our midst.” The host continued.“It's our pleasure.” They said in unison and smiled at each other.Maya, the host smiled before throwing out some questions to them.“So tell me Mrs. Grey, how is it possible that

    The rooftop was a secluded area with soft, soothing music echoing in the background. There were two chairs and a small table with spherical shaped red lights decorating the place. Nick slid his arm around her waist as they walked to the table.“Oh my God! This is really beautiful, you know how I love it.” She whined as they sat on the chair.“I had to put up my best to ensure there was no fault.” He smirked. “Have a drink.”He poured her a glassful of her favourite red wine, clinked glasses with her as they drank up.“This tastes really good.” She licked the wine from her lips.“You taste even better.” He set the glass down and ogled at her.“You're so flirty.” She giggled. “I can't believe we're over all of this.”“You made this right, Cass. I would never have bothered about stepping down for Marc as long as we were fine. I'm sorry you got yourself injured in the process but in the end, it's just a memory.”“Yeah, I don't mind going through hell for the man I love.” She gave him a s

    He yanked her up immediately and she wrapped her legs around him.“Let's go finish up what we started.” He shut the door and moved to the bedroom.“My God! You're already so hard.” She felt him bulging in his pants and pressed her mouth on his in a sizzling kiss.“You'd never know how much I missed you.” His tongue found its way into her mouth as he deepened the kiss. As soon as he laid her down on the bed, his phone started ringing and he slid it away.“This can definitely wait.” He whispered and leaned in to kiss her again.His phone began ringing the second time and he was forced to pull away.“So much for ruining the moment.” He cursed himself for it. “Who is it?” She asked softly.“It's Chloe.” He snapped. “You need to call her now.”“No, you pick up. I always have a facetime with Chloe. She might spot my shoulder sling.”“What am I gonna say? You haven't returned her calls since then, she could be suspicious.” He tried to reason with her. “I will pull the blanket over you.”“Ok

    “Babe it's here.” Cassie shouted hearing the knock on the door.“I'm here.” He came out, wearing a new pair of sweatpants and brushed lightly on his hair. “Do I look good?” He asked when he noticed her eyes on him.“You always look good.”“First time you're opening up about my looks.” He smiled and stepped into the private elevator that led downstairs.He got the package and ambled back to the room. He had ordered some tampons along with it. She got it and gazed at it.“Tampons? For?” “Just in case.”She laughed and took out the little device. “I'm just supposed to pee on it right?”“Sure.” “Okay, let's get this done already.” He helped her up on her feet and walked her to the bathroom.When she was done, they strolled to the balcony close to the room, dropping the kit on the large round table.“Wanna sit?” He asked, feeling concerned.“Nah, I think I'm getting better. The fever is gone.”He wrapped his arms around her from behind, pulling her to himself.“I guess my therapy helped

    “Mr. Nicholas Grey,” The doctor exclaimed as he stepped into the hospital premises.“Doctor, how is it going?”“Great. I was informed you wanted her to be discharged soon?”“If it doesn't pose any effect on her then yes. It's been a week and some days already.”“We're working on it. She seems very much better now. Your fiancée has some special guests and I felt I should draw your attention to it.”“Who are they?”“Go see for yourself.” He smirked. Nick pursed his lips, looking baffled as he hurried to the room Cassie was. He pushed the door slowly open and peeped inside the room. The shock on his face was replaced with a sudden smile spreading across his face.This has to be the best thing he has stumbled upon! His parents had come to see Cassie. His mom sat beside her on the bed holding her hands while his dad was just relaxed on the chair, concurring to whatever they were discussing. They didn't seem to have noticed him and appeared very engrossed in whatever stuff they were talkin

    After their little make out session, he kept on rubbing her back and lulling her to sleep, until he heard her soft snores. He uttered a sigh and closed his eyes. For the past days he hadn't been fortunate enough to sleep too, but having her in his arms had a way of calming him. He tried to stay up a bit just in case she needed anything but his eyes were heavy and droopy. Slowly, he drifted off but woke up about a few minutes later to ensure she was okay and wasn't hurting in any way. Despite his efforts to stay awake, he fell into a deep sleep again that obviously didn't last for long.“Lena, Don't!!!” He heard Cassie scream and tremble violently on top of him.“Baby, wake up.” His voice was raspy from his own lack of sleep. Her eyes flew open and she let out some panic breaths, clenching her fist to stop herself from trembling.“It's okay..It's okay now.” He smoothed out her hair, trying his best to soothe her. “It's just a nightmare.” He kissed her forehead and continued stroking he

    “Oh my God, you're awake?” He sprang up and attempted to give her a hug but realizing the state she was in, he pulled back instantly.“Baby..I'm glad you're awake.” He stroked her hair and kissed her forehead lightly.“Why have you been crying?” She stared at his flushed face and reddened eyes. Where are we?”“We are.. We are in the hospital.” He stuttered.“Why? What am I doing here?” She tried to sit up but the pains on her shoulder came back piercing causing her to scream.“Hey, I'm sorry. Just lay back sweetheart, I promise you that you'll be fine.”“What is going on?” She struggled to speak but her voice came out more as a whisper.“We're just spending some time together.” He tried to fake a smile but it disappeared as soon as he saw the look on her face. “Fuck! I'm sorry. You passed out.”“For..how..long?” “It doesn't matter how long baby, what matters now is that you're awake.”“How are you feeling?”“Weak and tired. Can I..have.. a glass..of water.. please? I'm damn thirsty.”

    Out of shock, he pulled the trigger again and it left a clicking sound behind, signifying there were no bullets in the pistol. Nick blinked rapidly, trying to clear the fog of disbelief that clouded his vision. “Seems you're running out of luck.” He took out his phone and called the cops, fixing his gaze intently on him. “Don't you fucking do that.” “Too late. We're gonna get your ass locked up in a bit.” Marcus surged forward and knocked his knee down, sending fists flying towards his face but he was quick enough to duck each of his blows. Nick rolled him over and strangled him, slowly taking the life out of him. “I'd fucking kill you right now but you deserve to rot in jail.” He released him as he heard the siren of the police. “No one is gonna believe you.” He choked, gasping for air. “Let's see how this plays out.” He smirked. Soon, footsteps surrounded the whole house as the cops barged into the room. “Take him away.” The cop shrieked and in a jiffy, Marcus was handcuffe

    Nick fumbled with the keys in his hand as he stared at the door in front of him. Despite the fact that he had rushed out of the house, he knew he didn't leave the front door hanging. He fell under suspicion of burglary and took out his phone, setting it on the recorder . As he strolled further into the hallway, the lights went off, increasing his anxiety.He made to turn on the lights when a hand grabbed his neck from behind.“Don't you dare touch me.” He tried to fight back instantly but felt the cold metal of a gun pressed against the side of his head as he was being led to one of his rooms.“Sit!” The voice ordered, standing behind him.“Marcus?” He called out in shock, recognising his voice.“Don't fucking call that name.” A resounding slap stung his cheek and he gasped, unable to move because he had his hands tied behind the chair.“What the fuck do you think you're doing!” Nick yelled menacingly as he shot daggers at him in the dimly lit room.“Trying to put your shits right!”
