"I'm very sorry for over reacting earlier today, you know when I shouted at you for going into that room"

She looked at him closely without blinking, trying to get all his facial expressions as he talked. She at least wanted him to say something about why he reacted that way. But he said nothing to that regards.

"So you do not have to be so cold towards me anymore".

Mary was distracted from all her thoughts when she felt his index finger on her chin, turning her to face him, while bringing his face impossibly close to hers.

As usual her mind shut down immediately and the only thing that her poor mind could think of was how those succulent pink lips that were impossibly close to her face would feel on hers.

"You've got mayonnaise on your face" he said in a very low tone, almost in a husky whisper while running his thumb lightly on her face.

That was the limit to what Mary could take, she immediately shut her eyes on impulse and her lips parted involunt

    "Sure" she nodded nervously, wondering why he had come to her room. He stepped in a stood resting on the window while Mary just stood there playing nervously with the helm of her top. "Looks like you are already getting ready for bed". "Not exactly, I was just reading a book before you came in" He nodded. "Let's go out in the garden" he said studying her. "Well unless guy want to continue reading your book" he added the last part as an after thought. "No. No not at all, I was already getting bored before you came in" "So how are you putting up with Emma?" "Your grandmother has been very cruel towards me" she answered plainly without mincing words. "I'm sorry on her behalf. I bought you a dress for the ball". Mary could almost not believe her ears, not only that she was invited did the ball, but Adonis, the Adonis Scott bought her a dress for the ball. He hands her a bag she did not realize he had been holding. "A dress for me" she ex

    Mary ran quickly to the door, the door of the room that Adonis had asked her to stay away from. Mary tried su hard to hold the helm of her dress with both hands to prevent herself from falling. She had not had time to take off the dress, she was in a hurry since Adonis could be home at anytime. She pulled the handle gently but was disappointed when it did not give way like she expected. It was locked from inside. Still she tried to push her luck, she pushed even harder and made a sound. "Are you okay miss" a female servant asked her from behind. She turned around slowly trying to wipe every suspicious looks from her face. "Uhhhm ..... Yes, I'm totally fine. I might have missed the way to my room" she said smiling nervously. The maid smiled back at her. "Of course, it happens. The house is really a big house and you would tend to miss your way more often than not especially since you are new here. I'm certain you would get used to it soon". Mary nodded and let out

    "What happened to her? Where is she" Mary asked with her gaze focused on Emma's face. Her heart beat even faster in anticipation of the information she was about to get. "Poor child — she really suffered". "What happened to her?" Mary asked again impatiently. Emma was about to open her mouth to say something when the door burst open. Both Mary and Emma turned around in shock to see who it was that had the guts to barge into Emma's room with that muck noise, and no dear at all. "Have you no respect at all young man?" Emma asked a bit jokingly. "I'm sorry grandma, I was in a bit too much if a hurry to give you your earrings" his gazed remained on Mary while he spoke to his grandmother. Mary on the other hand tried to avoid his gaze, she wondered if he had the idea of what she was trying to do. "Meanwhile I would need to steal Mary for some time" he announced not taking just gaze off her while she tried to looked every other place but at him. "Mary do I have

    "Yes!" Adonis continued. "I had to struggle too to be able to afford some basic needs in life. Emma is part of my Success story". Mary nodded her head. "I can see why you love her so much" "I can do anything for her". Mary talked more about her childhood, and how things were always hard for them. She talked about how she could not go to college and how sad that made her feel. While she talked, she made sure to avoid mentioning her newspaper. "So so you have plans of going back to college?" Adonis asked. "Maybe when I might have saved up enough money". Adonis nodded. "I really admire your fighting spirit Mary" he lightly tapped her shoulder. "So what would I do to make you play cards with me?" Mary asked excitedly as they drove home on Adonis car. "You really want to play cards huh! How sure are you that I would not beat you the same way I just did?" "Because I am a master of cards, I have taken time to study all the tactics of playing ca

    Mary immediately stopped on her tracks, her heart beating speedily. She slowly turned around to face him. "You are still awake?" She asked pretending not to have seen him earlier. "Yes! I had some late night work to do" he said looking her over. Mary tried to read his facial expressions, if he had Known she had been eavesdropping on him. "I can see you are just coming back". She nodded, he moved closer to her. "You smell like alcohol, did you drink?" "Just a few bottles" she said with a silly smile on her face. Must have been the effect of the alcohol. "You should go get some sleep, you look wasted already". Mary staggered as she went up to her room. She fell into a deep slumber even before her head touched the pillow. That night Mary had a dream, she saw Adonis holding a gun with blood stains all over his hands and clothes. She was awoken the next morning by the ringing of her phone, she stretched her hand to pick up the phone on the side table while massaging her

    Mary hardly got any sleep that night, she kept tossing and turning on the bed, she was at the Verge of losing her job and nothing seemed to be working out at all, nothing. She punched the bed repeatedly as flickers of tears kept dropping from her eyes and soaking her bedsheet. Although things seems to not be going as planned, she was determined to not give up, after all she was a fighter.She woke up the next morning with a weird feeling, there seemed to be a very big pit in her stomach. When she stepped out of her room, she could hear Adonis downstairs talking on the phone, she could hardly get anything out of what he was saying, the only thing she knew was that he was irritated and angry. She wondered what could have gotten him angry that early in the morning. She tried to draw closer, to hear what he was saying.She stood at the foot of the staircase when he lifted her his head and saw her, she smiled at him but he does not return her smile instead he walked away on her ang

    "Huh" she raised her head to look at him in shock. "Read the story on the first page" Mary faked rapt attention as she read the story in the newspaper. Mary's hand shook as she read the story on the paper. Adonis looked at her intensely. "You see mary, one particular newspaper managed to get that story linking me to a mystery mother case, and the man called me to ask for bribe to prevent the story from getting leaked" Mary listened attentively to him as she spoke, beads of sweats breaking out on her forehead. " I paid huge amount of money as bribe to prevent that story from getting published, but as you can see. Even my money could not save me from getting linked to a murder case". Mary's heart was beating even faster now. "What do you think I should do Mary?" She looked up to meet his blue gaze, wondering what he wanted her to say, or why he would even ask her that in the first place. She thought in her mind that he probably knows she was responsible for lea

    Mary borrowed Mia's clothes, since they were almost of the same size and age, it was not hard for Mia's clothes to fit in on her. They got to the club, Mary felt a bit awkward at first. "I have never been in a strip club before" Mary whispered to Mia as they got inside. "Neither have I" Mia answered. "So how come you have these clothes?" Mary asked suspiciously. "You ask too many questions mary, we both came here to have fun, just pretend you are a stripper and just do your thing, and get rid of that awkward feeling. We don't want to look odd do we?" They had a few, maybe a little too much. Mary gradually started to loosen up after drinking and she watched other strippers and started to do a strip dance, although she was a bit clumsy. After a few minutes, some group of men walked into the club, Mary saw a familiar figure among them. "Adonis!" She exclaimed. "Mia, Adonis is here" she whispered to Mia and started acting restless. "Come on Mary you do n

    "Ahhhhh!" Mia screamed as she saw the ring on Mary's finger, this time around Mary did not try to stop her from screaming, she allowed her scream out her lungs even though everyone in the restaurant were now watching them. "You mean you are getting married to Adonis Scott? How could so much happen within such a short period?" Mia asked surprised. "Even I have no idea" Mary said with a smile as she looked at the ring in her finger. "I have no idea either". "Would you make me your chief bridesmaid?" Mia asked with a smile. "Of course Mary said" They talked happily about random things, and how beautiful Mary's wedding would be. Mary herself was anticipating the wedding, she could not wait to see how beautiful her wedding would be. They had already started preparations for the wedding, and it was even like a double celebration for Mary because Clay also got a big contract that would change the life of his company forever and make it known."What do you think about this?"

    Mary was taken aback by what she saw on the sky, she looked back at the object in her hand again, it was a ring, and it looked expensive. Mary felt like she was dreaming, this could be one of those her countless fantasies that she had always thought would never come to pass. She quickly looked back at Adonis and saw him walking towards her with a smile on his face. He got close to her and took the ring from her hand. "Will you marry me" he voiced out. Mary was perplexed beyond description, she could not believe what her ears were hearing. She slowly pinched herself to be sure she was not dreaming. Adonis laughed as he saw her pinch herself. "I guess I should help you do that" Adonis said and pinched her arm softly. "Ouch!" Mary exclaimed laughing. "Now tell me" Adonis said. "Will you marry me". "Yes!" Mary nodded excitedly, she could not control her excitement, Adonis himself could not control the smile that spread out on his face as he slid the ring into her finger.

    "So how did you feel on that day after witnessing two murders? I know it must have been a traumatic event for you". Mary said. "It indeed was" Adonis answered, "especially the thoughts of loosing my mother on that day. But Emma was there for me to help me over come it, she never left my side". "That is the reason you love her so much, she deserves all the love you show to her". "Exactly....." Adonis said. "After she took me and fled that city, we were always going from one thatched house to the other, living from hand to mouth. Sometimes I would watch my grandmother beg in the streets in order to give make sure I had something to eat". Mary took his hand and squeezed it, she never would have believed that Adonis had gone through such hardship as a child. "Emma sacrificed a lot for me, she later started doing menial jobs so she was able to afford to pay for a small place in the outskirts of the city". "I guess that was where you met the neighbor who always caught you with

    "So why did you still chose to keep me after you found out?" "Well..." He took another sip from his glass of wine while staring at her. "I kind of noticed you were making progress with my grandmother, so I choose to let you stay. Hoping you would see the good in me and forfeit your mission" Mary lowered her eyes, she felt even more ashamed of herself once again. "Do you want to know another reason I choose to let you stay at all cost?" Mary shook her head. "Well just like I told you the first day we had met, you are so lovely. You were lovely the first day I saw you, and you still are now" a smile broke out on his face. "It would only take a person with a stone heart not to fall in love with you". On hearing that, Mary immediately dropped the glass of wine she was about taking a sip from and looked up at him sharply. Did he mean that he was in love with her? "I guess you yourself did not have a heart at all, like you told me the first time we met* Mary said. "What do

    Adonis stared at Mary opened mouthed and with wide eyes as she walked towards him, he knew he had asked her to wear something sexy, but this was so hot that it almost too his breath away. With every step she took towards him, his heart beat increased. Causing him to want to take her in his arms and kiss her all night long. A smile spread out on his lips as she walked towards him. "You look beautiful" he said to her as she approached him. He took her hand, gave it a gentle squeeze before he brought it to his lips and kissed it. Mary felt electrifying feelings all over her body as Adonis soft lips made contact with her hand. She bit her lips to prevent a moan from escaping from her mouth. "Shall we?" He asked as he took her hand. She nodded with a smile. Adonis opened the car door for her and gestured for her to get in, Mary got into the car. Adonis got in quickly besides her and helped her fix her seatbelts, even though he knew that she could do it herself, he still felt

    Emma cleared her throat and continued her story. "Seeing what had happened and that someone had found out, I felt that we were no longer safe there, if the police found us out they could take me to jail, and then my Adonis would be left all alone on his own with mo body to take care of him. I did not want that for my grandson, so I took him with me and we fled the town. Once again I had to leave, but this time around with my grandson and not my daughter. We were not able to take anything wutg us, the only thing I was able to take out of that house was a picture of my Lauren, the same picture you have seen hanging there. Because the place had been a ghetto, there was no further investigation on the deaths, the police ruled it out as a clash between rival gangs. Mary still wanted to know why Adonis had tried to harm his grandmother. She asked the question aloud, directing it to Adonis. But Adonis stayed quiet, still staring at her. Emma answered the question instead. "Adonis nev

    Mary looked up at Adonis again only to see him still looking at her. She noticed he had been quiet all along, she felt ashamed to look into his eyes now, she really felt ashamed of what she had done. Emma continued her explanation. "I finally thought that when I presented Adonis to Oscar, I thought that at least he would be happy that he finally had a child with Lauren and stop treating her bad. At first, he became lenient with us and started acting a bit maturely towards us. He would but gifts for Lauren and Adonis. But that did not last long, after quitewa while he resumed his maltreatment on us again. I watched Adonis grow up in the midst of all of these chaos, but I could not do anything about it, I had no power to change anything. I could not even take him away from there because we had no other place to go to. I did not want to return to the streets with my child and grandchild, that would not be good for them. So we stayed. Oscar never showed love to Adonis as a child" M

    Mary and Emma were now sitting on the couch in the sitting room, while Adonis stood there with his hand in his pocket. Mary wondered what Emma meant by saying her grandson was not a murderer. But Adonis had openly admitted in the court that he had killed his parents. Adonis stood there and watched every reaction that appeared on Mary's face as they spoke. "Then why is everyone saying he killed his parents? Why was he arrested?" Mary was even more confused as ever. "You should see him as a hero instead of a murderer" Emma said. Mary looked up at Adonis only to meet his eyes. Mary kept rubbing Emma's arm as she spoke. "Tell me about Adonis parents then" Mary said. "Is the lovely woman in that picture hanging inside that room Adonis's mom?" Mary asked. Emma nodded. "My Lauren, my poor child. She suffered so much until death". Emma said with a sad look on face. "Is she your daughter?" Mary asked, she could not help but ask too many questions. "Yes" Emma said nodding. "S

    Mary had her heart hung in her mouth, she swallowed hard having no idea how to handle the situation at hand. She was about challenging him and finally get to tell him to his face that he was a pathetic and and psychotic killer that would not mind harming his own grandmother just to cover up his mess. She was about about open up her mouth to cuss him when he pulled out a gun from his pocket and pointed it at them. Mary quickly pushed Emma behind her, but it seemed like she pushed too hard because the old woman ended up falling to the ground. Mary's mouth snapped shut as she looked at Adonis, all the curses she had originally planned to rain on him hung in her throat. "What are you trying to do?" He asked, his voice sounding more mean than it had sounded earlier. His eyes had gone blood shut, Mary feared that he had gone mad and would kill the both of them without thinking twice. Mary could not help but think if this was the same way Adonis had killed his parents, if this was th
