"Prepare a car for me, Pete." Leo left an order with Pete before getting up from where he sat by the edge of the bed.Pete did as he was told and now I was sitting in the back of a car with Leo and he(Pete) was driving.It was past midnight and I didn't know where I was being driven to. I was cold so I gnashed my teeth and rubbed my palms against each other. I was gnashing my teeth when Leo turned to me so I stopped.The car got to the front of a beautiful house, a mansion actually but not as big as the one Leo stayed in. Pete got out of the car and went to the gate. Soon I saw a man come out and start to open the gates while Pete returned to us in the car.He got back in and drove the car through the gate. Leo had a scary smile on. It just made me worried for myself with every passing second.He got out of the car with Pete but I didn't. I just sat back and prayed for my safety. Goodness knows why I was brought here. My eyes were still closed with prayers for the earth I came from wh
Mae took off the shirt she was wearing and threw it to the ground. She had her eyes closed while she undressed. She slowly stepped out of the trousers she unzipped and stood still like she was done undressing."Take everything off." I specified to her. She opened her teary eyes and looked at me with surprise "Everything." She snorted with disbelief and narrowed her eyes angrily at me. I smiled. It was fun to watch her give me that look but know deep within herself that she couldn't do anything but obey my orders.I sat back and waited for her to take the other things off her. After taking off her outer clothes, she was just left in her tube top and panty.She didn't close her eyes this time. I think it was her way of showing me that she didn't care what else I did to her after now but she had no idea, how much fun it would still get.Mae pulled on the taut band keeping the tube over her chest and I watched as her breasts hung free the moment the tube went off her."Look away," I orde
I watched as the curtains behind the wide French door closed and I could no longer see Leo or Pete. It was at that point that I knew I was in trouble.I looked down at the pool. The alligators didn't seem to know I was there yet because they were just still without any extra movements in the pool.My palms started to get sweaty so I held on to the rope tighter and blinked the tears in my eyes away since I couldn't wipe them away with my hands.The night was still chilly and I still felt cold but that was not the biggest of my problems at the moment. I inhaled deeply and looked up to see where the rope was tied to, maybe I could go up the rope but then, that was too risky. What if I fall? I should have just done the one hundred pushups when I could. Now I was hanging from a rope and trying my best not to fall into a pool of three hungry-looking alligators.Alligators used to look so cute when I was viewing them online but being in a close-up encounter with them was definitely scary as
I walked out of the front of my mansion and saw that my car was ready like I asked Pete to arrange with a driver to wait and hold the door for me but I didn't want to leave with a driver."Good morning, sir," The driver greeted me when I got close to the car."Let me have the keys," I told him and he handed it over.I drove to the house that I took Mae yesterday and the caretaker opened the gate. I had asked him not to go to the back no matter how much Mae cried out for help.I can't even recall why I did that; if it was because I didn't want her to be seen naked and hanging from a tree or if I gave him that order. After all, I wanted to punish her.I hurried on to the back to check if she was still hanging on. I don't know why but I couldn't sleep last night after I left her here for the mansion. I kept on turning in bed. It was almost like a guilty feeling, something that I haven't felt for so long.It's not like it's the first time I've had someone hang on to a rope over that pool.
I woke up with a headache. After I opened my eyes, I saw that I was in my bed, in my room, still butt naked but beneath the duvet. The last thing I could remember was Leo covering me up with a suit jacket and I succumbed to sleep after that.I sat up and wanted to rub my eyes but my arms were hurting so I just laid back down to go to sleep but I heard a knock on the door.I was going to opt for laying back and letting the person knocking to leave but when the person knocked more than thrice, I knew the person wasn't planning on leaving.I got out of bed, wrapped the duvet around my chest, and dragged my feet to the door. I yawned on opening the door and was surprised by who I saw. It wasn't the maid, Anita, like I thought, it was Rhea from yesterday."Hi," she had a pretty big smile."Uhm..." I just stood there with no words, having nothing to say."I didn't see you in the field today so I asked some persons around where to find you." She made her way into my room and stood by the bed
I knew that voice. It was Pete's voice. Oh no. I turned around and saw him standing by the entrance leading to the hallway I just departed from.I should have known he would wait to see who would come out, why didn't I suspect that? I started to think of things to lie with when he asked why I was leaving the hallway that led to his boss's chamber.But why did I have to lie, I mean I didn't do anything wrong in going to confirm what I knew was written on that door. With few steps, he met me where I stood, a stern look on his face."What were you doing there? Why were you there?" He asked the questions I expected and I opened my mouth to say something but nothing came. I hadn't yet thought of a lie to tell or even a way to tell him the truth of why I was there.All that came to my mind when he stood in front of me was yesterday. I could only remember Leo asking me to undress in front of them both and then later asking him to look away.At least, he didn't see me naked yesterday, it woul
I stood on my favourite balcony in the whole mansion. It had a great view of the city. Gentle breeze casually blowing by. I was waiting for Pete to bring Mae to me.I heard a thud and turned towards the stairs to see that Mae had stumbled on some steps. She got back on her feet and thankfully, she wasn't bleeding. Pete didn't help her up, he just stood behind her on the stairs and waited for her to get back up before proceeding.She was rubbing on her elbow which had kissed the floor when she fell but stopped when she looked up and saw me. I studied her reaction after seeing me and could tell that she was frightened the moment she set her eyes on me.I smiled. I was weirdly happy to see her after not being able to see her for the past 24 hours. It was nice to see her oval, pale face with those brown eyes that matched her hair."How are you feeling today?" I asked her what I would have done if I had a chance to see her yesterday. I wanted her to be in a good state if I was going to tea
I was going up the stairs that led to the balcony Rhea had shown me yesterday when I fell with a thud. I looked up and saw Leo's eyes on me.I got on my feet and checked, I wasn't bleeding. I rubbed my elbow to massage where I hit after falling. The memory of taking my clothes off in front of him the other night hit me and I swallowed. It left me transfixed.Leo smiled on seeing me. He fixed his eyes on me and I just knew it had to be because he had seen me naked before."How are you feeling today?" He asked me. Weird that he would ask me that. What did he care?I was scared that he was asking that. I was scared of him. I stayed still to cover it up and I didn't give an answer to his question, instead, I just stared at him to know what he would say next."Excuse us," He ordered and Pete left down the stairs he came up in.Now it was just Leo and me left at the top of the balcony. He started to come closer to where I stood. I wanted to move back in fear but my feet seemed to be glued t
I laughed when I saw the gun in his hand but he didn't laugh along. I groaned and went to lean in the same position he was leaning against when I joined him here."I thought of the possibility of you doing this, but then I shoved it to the back of my mind. I told myself Omar wouldn't do that shit. But here you are, doing that shit.""If you won't help me. I'll help myself. I know you won't kill me. If you wanted to, you'd have all these while. So that leaves me no choice. I have to kill you to save myself.""You're in flames for killing the little girl, and you want to kill me too? You still enjoy playing with fire, don't you Omar?""..." He didn't say anything after me. He just held the gun tighter and licked his trembling lips."Alright, enough of this shit. Sixty seconds, you've got sixty seconds to kill me or I'm leaving. I want to be at the hospital when Mae wakes up." I told him and took off my suit jacket."If I don't pull the trigger in sixty seconds, will you kill me?" He swa
Who the hell looks this beautiful in a sick bed? I sat by Mae's hospital bed and watched her sleep on. The doctor she lost a lot of blood but she should wake soon; that was what I was waiting for.My phone vibrated in my hands. I looked and saw that it was Pete calling so I left to answer it. I was expecting that call of his. He had told me that he found some gadgets and equipment being used by those FIA agents so he took them with him and was going to check through them.****Three weeks later.I was driving to the hospital to check on Mae. She had woken up but hadn't fully recovered. The doctor in charge of her treatment said she would need some more time to be on her feet and active again."Omar," I called over the phone after picking up my ringing phone."You must have learned the full story behind the FIA agents being at that building that day." He sounded dull.I hissed and wanted to end the call. I was in no mood to speak about that, at least not now that I was on my way to se
I had gone back to assure the other kids that they would be okay. I felt the need to, especially after one of them watched her sister get shot. Thankfully, Rhea was there to stop them from witnessing me shoot the man who did it.I went on one knee to be able to talk to the sister of the dead girl. She wasn't saying anything so I took out my handkerchief and wiped the blood of her sister off her face.I got up from my kneeling position and turned around to meet Mae standing halfway to the car and watching me. I wanted to smile at her but my cheeks felt too heavy to be lifted into a smile at the moment.I helped Rhea and the kids into a car before planning to join Mae in the car. I turned around to start in the car's direction and saw a red dot traced at her. It was at the back of her head and then it retraced to her heart.My heart skipped a beat."Mae!" I called out to her and began running to her but she turned around. The moment she did, she got shot.I stopped running. I was just a
I got out of the car and headed to where Rhea was. I know Leo asked me to remain in the car but I don't know how he was thinking that was possible when he drove me here."Rhea?" I called to make sure it was her before getting too close.She turned to me and with a reflex action, pulled out her gun. I raised my hands in the air."The fuck are you doing here?" She asked when she put down her gun."Leo brought me.""Mr Vance brought you? Really? For what?" She couldn't believe me."I was driving with him when he suddenly turned around and drove us here. I figured either you or Pete called him. So what happened?""Thx asshole in there, he just..." Rhea sighed and ran her fingers through her hair."He killed one of them.""One of them? Them?""Mae, just go back to the car." She advised."Come on, tell me what happened?""The asshole was supposed to sell the kids to us but he said he won't do it if sir Vance wasn't here. We've been trying to talk him out of it but the mother-fucker just pull
Night.Mae and I had spent the day with the kids. I toured her around the place. She had asked about Rhea and I explained how she had to take back one of the kids to their parents since it was now safe to do so.I just tucked one of the kids to sleep and saw her standing and staring at a fishbowl, in thought."Do you want to slam my head into the bowl?" I asked her, trying to get what she was thinking about."Your head wouldn't fit in it," she turned to me and sighed."I'm going home, back to Nina. She must be worried. I don't even have a phone for her to reach me and know where the fuck I am."She started to walk away so I followed."Is that what you were thinking about?" I knew it couldn't be, yet I asked. She had to have been thinking of something deeper."You know it's crazy how much you and Lade know about me and I didn't even know what my father was till you told me." She finally voiced her thoughts."It's not your fault." She had to know it wasn't."Do you know who you are?" She
I sat in the car with Leo, still in my nightgown. He keeps doing shit like this and wonder why I hate him much. I probably shouldn't have fucked him last night; probably gave him the impression that I've forgiven everything that he's done to and with me.When the therapist handling me at my dad's orphanage told the women in charge there that I was crazy beyond her help, they should have believed her. Leo took us to what looked like a factory. He came down from his car and was about to get the door for me but I didn't let him."Thank you, gentleman," I sarcastically told him and got a chuckle from him.He started towards the entrance of the building so I followed. We got to one of the main entrances there and it had a fingerprint sensor.Leo put all five of his right fingers over the sensor and it turned green, allowing us access."What is this place?" I asked him when we walked in and there was barely any light to see with."Where your friend's daughter became my friend." His reply h
He just kissed me. My eyes rounded in surprise at how gentle his kiss was. And then the realization hit me. He was looking into my eyes to prepare me for a kiss and I, fuck, I stupidly stared back like it was a fucking staring contest.His kiss was light and harmless. For someone who let hickeys all over me when he ate me out, I couldn't believe he could kiss so softly.I wanted him to do it again. Maybe I could be sure that he did it and it all wasn't just in my head.As if he heard me, he brought his lips to mine again and kissed me ever so softly. I closed my eyes this time to let it sink in. I thought it would be just a simple kiss but Leo grabbed my waist to pull me closer to himself and set my body on fire in the process.I found myself running my fingers through his hair, messing it up while he kissed me more deeply. I wanted more. I wanted more than just his kiss. I don't know what was driving my body to crave his touch. Maybe the fact that I haven't fucked anyone in three yea
Three weeks later.I've been indoors since I arrived at Nina's and no one had come for me. It felt unusual to acknowledge that I was free from Leo now and he wasn't coming to get me, or the least, sending someone after me.All I've done is lay around in bed and wait for someone to barge in again, sent by Leo but that hasn't happened. I was starting to feel miserable at the fact that Nina has been letting me stay and all I've been doing is eating and sleeping. Maybe I should go out and get a job somewhere or something, now I was convinced Leo set me free.Later.Nina came home excited. I had to find out why so I asked. I asked why she was that excited and she told me about her office party. She told me how they were featuring big personalities from City A and beyond.She told me she was allowed to bring a plus one but didn't have any other person to bring. It would be her ex-husband but they were no longer together. And it would be me but I haven't gone out in a long time...unless I de
Four days now and there was nothing about Lade on the news yet. Beats me that no one knew he was dead yet. Did they even know he was missing? Leo hasn't been around a lot since that day. The most I've seen of him is his walking out the tall doors at the entrance of the mansion.I've been wanting to talk to him about when I could finally leave. Now that Lade was dead, I didn't have to be here anymore.I went up to Leo's favorite place in the mansion, the balcony with the view. It was night and the city looked beautiful as hell from where I stood.Soon, I would be out of here and back to my old life...a life I'm not sure I have anymore. Nina might never trust me again and the FIA may not be so willing to take me back."Perfect, I have more than one beauty to behold by coming up here." Leo crept up behind me, giving me a little jump scare but I made sure not to show it."You're here, finally," I smiled, happy to see him without Pete or some other assistant around him telling him when th
