It was another ordinary day, until Shannon got a strange text message on her phone. It was from an unknown number, and the message was cryptic and unsettling. Shannon's heart started to race as she tried to decipher the meaning of the message. She felt a sense of dread wash over her, and she couldn't shake the feeling that something bad was about to happen.Shannon sat at her desk, staring at her phone. She couldn't stop thinking about the message she had received. Who was this person, and what did they want? What could they possibly mean by "I'm more dangerous than you can think"?Shannon took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She knew that she needed to stay rational and not get carried away by her fears. But the more she thought about it, the more her anxiety grew.Just then, her phone buzzed again. A new text from the same number."I know where you live, and I know where your family lives," the message read. "I could hurt them if I wanted to. You need to do what I say,
Shannon sat at her desk, reading the text message that had just arrived on her phone. Her hands were trembling and she felt a knot in her stomach. The message read, "You have just three hours, choose between Ryan and your company!" She blinked her eyes rapidly as she read through for a second time.She knew who had sent the message. It had to be Diane. But why was Diane doing this to her? Shannon had never done anything to hurt her. She didn't understand. Ever since she had met her with Ryan, she knew she had other motives, but had kept her cool, if only Ryan had listened to her and rejected the proposal, now she was always threatening her, sending her different text messages, She was losing it and soon once she had all the evidence she needed, Diane would be prepared to see her in court.How could her fellow lady be this obsessed over a guy to the extent of sending her a threat message almost every day? Shannon felt her head spinning as she tried to make sense of it all. She had t
"Let her in!" Mr. Lincoln muttered out, as his bodyguard told him about the lady that was outside waiting to see him, his brow furrowed with anticipation as he nodded his head in agreement. His anticipation was evident as he leaned back in his chair, fingers tented in front of him. His face pulled into a sly smirk as he watched her walk into his office, he was very interested in listening to what she had to say, mostly as it involved Shannon. He wanted her out of his company, and he had a second plan. If only Diane's evidence is true then he'll definitely know how to kick out Shannon legally from the position he offered to her. "Sit!" he ordered as he cleared his throat, the lady following his command. "What is your evidence?" he gave a suspicious look. Diane sat up straight as she looked at Mr. Lincoln, she had it all planned... She had done her research and she knew that Mr. Lincoln was at the verge of dismissing his illegitimate daughter, she knew about his secret children.
These few days had always been work-filled for Shannon, it was either she was staying late to cover up her work schedule or she was bothered thinking about Diane's threat. Diane has been a pain in the ass, and she was majorly Shannon's concern, the worst of all was the fact that she couldn't rely on Ryan and tell him about Diane. Shannon sighed as she read the contract terms over and over again, her head was banging heavily. Because she had been troubled almost all day, she couldn't concentrate fully on the contract. Running her hands through her hair, Shannon stood up as she picked up the hard copy of the contract, planning to head to her father's office. It was a relief her father was right at the office that day, she couldn't be less relieved because she had to give it to him right there rather than taking it to his house. Leaving her office, her destination to her father's own, Shannon beamed at the workers she met walking. When she got to her father's office, with her han
"She had your father fooled with a fake photoshopped video, and from my inspection, he is having a secret meeting with her... Which simply means that they're already implementing on using the fake footage to press charges against you " Agent Smith, diligently explained. All Shannon could do was listen attentively as she thought of the fact that her father didn't even have a single trust in her. The sudden beep of her phone dragged Shannon's attention as she shifted her gaze away from Agent Smith to her phone. It was just a message, clicking on it. Shannon drew in a deep breath, letting the air fill her lungs and expand her chest. She held it for a moment, feeling the pressure build, and then slowly released it, watching the tension drain from her body. It was a simple, but effective, technique for calming her nerves. As she exhaled, she felt the corners of her mouth turn up in a slight smile. "Watch how things work out!" The text read. Shannon gave a savage smirk as she read it o
Shannon watched as Diane was being taken by the policemen, Ryan was standing by her as he held her, then she suddenly turned to high him. She loves him so much and she couldn't thank him enough for standing by her. "I'm very sorry for putting you through all the stress, I should have obeyed and rejected his offer immediately" Ryan spoke. "It's okay... I believe everything happens for a reason" Shannon replied him. Ryan had known from day one that Diane was up to something, he had suspected right from the first day she had her hand across his shoulder immediately she sighed Shannon, he knew she must have a motive. So, he had Roy conduct a search on her where he discovered that she didn't just lie about not possessing a job, but had been secretly colliding with the Lincoln. "So, what would you be doing by tomorrow?" Ryan asked as he held her hands as they both walked down to his car. "What do you think?" he caught the sadness in her eyes, but she laughed it off. He knew
Shannon chuckled as he parked his car, and then unbuckled his seat belt... "What do you think you are doing, Mr. Lancaster?" Shannon teased him. "Trying to make my baby girl pay for what she did!" He winked at her as he came out from the driver's seat as he opened the car door and then carried her to the back seat. Shannon chuckled as he placed her softly on the back seat, his lips sought for hers kissing her intensely.He delved his tongue inside her mouth as he searched for her, stroking it as they got involved in a game of battle. Shannon kissed him with all pent up hunger, she wanted him, so badly. She found herself moaning as he grabbed her boobs fondling lightly on it as he kissed her simultaneously.They were in the car, so there was no time for any fore play, he widened her led as he made her sat in between his legs, and the he took of her skirt off completely. Sliding a finger inside her pussy, finger fvcking her lightly as if he was teasing her. A few minutes later
Since Shannon wasn't working anymore with the Lincoln, she fully had time for her son now, she work per time, and yet still get fully paid because of the hard she worked. It was the weekend, Shannon had her weekend planned already with Dennis, she was going to be taking him to Disney land for the first time, and she wanted it to be like a surprise for him. After he was done with breakfast, Shannon dressed him up and then told him they were going on an outing. Dennis screamed out loudly, he was too excited as he jumped and hugged his mother.She watched as his eyes lit up and his face broke into a huge grin. He started jumping up and down, clapping his hands and asking "Really?" over and over again. He couldn't contain his excitement, and kept asking, "When? When?" Shannon almost got tired of answering him over and over again. Shannon laughed as she saw the excitement on her son's face. In response to Dennis's enthusiasm, Shannon laughed and said, "Yes, we're leaving soon. Go
"Do you take Ryan Lancaster to be your Lawful wedded husband?" The priest voice boomed through the room. Ryan hadn't been this nervous in his life, his eyes couldn't leave his soon to be wife for a second, dressed in an elegant wedding dress, the dress clung to her body revealing her hour glass curves. He couldn't wait for the wedding to be over and remind her that those curves are finally his, and his alone and he can have them in one spot right where he want it, in his bed."I do!" He heard her melodious voice spoke, his chest gave a leap as he heard his long awaited answer. Then the priest turned to him."Cupcake, from the moment we met, I knew my life would change forever. You are my guiding light, my constant source of joy, and the love of my life. Today, in front of our friends and family, I promise to stand by your side through all of life's ups and downs. I promise to be your partner, your confidant, and your biggest supporter. I love you more than words can express, and I ca
Days pass, Weeks did also... Shannon didn't get to hear from Ryan, she knew he needed time to process all that had just happened, she couldn't blame him for what had happened. His past made him what he was, but then again, she hope he forgives her and let go.She felt awful for hiding his son away from him, hiding several stage of Dennis life away from him. She missed him so much even though he was always calling her and getting to talk to her almost everyday. Still, that awkwardness was there, because he wasn't there with her. "Momma, someone is at the door!" Dennis walked in to her room jolting her from her thoughts.Dennis had been a happy kid ever since he got to knew Ryan was his father, she had thought he would have a problem absorbing it in, but then again, he seems to be cool with it. "Okay!" Shannon reluctantly stood up from her comfort zone as she dragged her feet to the door, scooping Dennis from the floor, then to the sitting room.Opening the door, her eyes took sight o
The room was suddenly filled with a heavy silence, as the weight of Shannon's words hung in the air between them. She had been right to be afraid, to worry about what he might do if he found out the truth. And yet, her deception had caused its own kind of damage, a wound that would be difficult to heal.Ryan had never made any secret of his feelings on the matter. He had said, time and time again, that he did not want children. He recalled when he had told her, threatening to destroy his child with his bare hands if he ever finds out he had one, And not to mention the fact that he had asked several ladies in his past who had gotten pregnant for him to get rid of it. He had never imagined a day like this would come, a day when he would be confronted with the reality of his past words. He had said things in anger, things he had never truly meant. And yet, those words had come back to haunt him, in the form of a beautiful child. A child who had done nothing wrong, who was blameless in a
As Ryan opened the door, she caught a glimpse of his eyes. He looked so saddened. It was as if the whole world had just crashed down at his feet.He just looked at her, devastated, and without a word, he walked straight inside the mansion, with Dennis walking alongside him. Shannon ran after them, she scooped Dennis from the floor staring at his body to see if he was hurt, and then she breathed out a sigh of relief when she didn't see any signs of injury in his body. She felt tears threatening to spill down her eyes as she blinked her eyes rapidly, she couldn't believe she was holding Dennis finally In her hands. If only she had told Ryan the truth back then, perhaps all this wouldn't have been happening. She stared from her son to Ryan, she couldn't even hold his gaze for hours, he looked broken, shattered beyond repair, and she was the main reason behind those looks. She owes him apologies, several explanations, and above all she needs him to forgive her.Her thought wandered
Ryan, without thinking, scribbled his signature on the contract."Is there anything else?" Ryan inquired."Yes!" With a gun aimed at his head, Ryan raised his hands in surrender."Do you think I'm going to be so stupid to let you go after signing the contract? I thought you were smart, but then again, you're nothing but a dummy," Reuben cocked his gun and pointed it at Ryan.Ryan gulped. He was more concerned about Dennis. He wouldn't want him to experience such a scene. It was too scary for a child of his age, and he was more concerned about the scene haunting him."You know what? I'll give you whatever you want. Let's get in and talk business!" Ryan tried to keep his voice steady."There is nothing to discuss, Ryan. The contract is already signed, and that's it!" Reuben smirked. His eyes sparkled with a glint of triumph, the smugness in his gaze unmistakable. He had finally won the game; he had always wished for a day like this to come when Ryan would be at his complete mercy."So,
As Ben's car pulled up to where they stood, Shannon found herself at a loss for words. She had so much to say, but all the words seemed to have evaporated, knowing he wasn't going to be the answer to her numerous questions. She felt like a deer in headlights, frozen and unsure of what to do next. Her heart was pounding in her chest, her palms sweating. The only thing she knew for sure was that everything had just gotten a lot more complicated.Different thought was running through her head as she thought of why Ryan had run in hasteHer mind was a whirl of thoughts as she tried to make sense of what had just happened. Why had Ryan come running in such a hurry? Was there something she was missing? Something she didn't know? Or maybe does it have anything related to Dennis? Her mind was racing, but she couldn't focus on any one thought for long. She was like a leaf in a storm, tossed about by the winds of confusion and suspense.Shannon's face was pulled into a frown as Ben took a tur
Seated inside the car, Shannon's heart raced, its rhythmic thump echoing in her ears. The leather seats cradled her, embracing her with a soft, supple warmth, while the dashboard lights illuminated her anxious expression. She was very restless, tossing from one side to another, and she was being much careful as she kept her gaze locked on the road avoiding to meet with Ryan hot scrutiny. Even with his undivided attention focused on the road, She could feel his eyes burning into her, his gaze intense and probing. She kept her eyes focused on the road ahead, unable to bear the weight of his scrutiny. Without being told, she could feel his anger radiating from the seat beside her, filling the car with an electric tension. The silence was suffocating, making it hard to breathe.The car's wheels bumped along the road, the landscape outside blurring past them. Somehow, her gaze directed to where he sat, his hands holding the steering , she needed no one to tell her that he was battlin
Shannon knew from there that it wasn't a joke, it was real, her son was missing. She had to find him, where did he entered, who was behind it? Did he get kidnapped? How? Many questions were running through her mind right there, but she couldn't seems to have an answer to any one. "Is everything alright? " Lifting up her face, Shannon met with Ryan gaze. "Our son is missing!" Shannon spilled out the words without thinking twice. "Our son?" She expected that reaction, as he creased his brow in confusion, his gaze looking lost. Ryan wasn't just stupefied, he was looking lost. Was she hallucinating? Did something goes wrong somewhere or was it just a slip of tongue? Too many questions were running through his mind right there, and he needed an accurate answers to his question. "Yes, our son, " Shannon repeated this time, her voice clear and sure, she had nothing too loose. She had intended to tell him after the whole incident, but now, it was better later than never.Ryan stood ther
Fluttering her eyes open, Shannon felt her heart freeze as her gaze met with the unexpected Shadow that stood at the doorway, hands crossed across the shoulder. "You startled me!" Shannon creased her brow as she drew in a rasp breath. She could finally breathe properly now. Once Shannon realized that the shadow was Ryan, her body seemed to release a breath it had been holding. Her shoulders sagged with relief, the tension leaving her body in a wave. Her heartbeat slowed, and her breathing became more even. His presence seemed to fill the room with warmth, dispelling the fear and confusion that had seized her just moments before. She felt herself relax, a sense of safety and comfort settling over her. "Look what we have here!" his husky tone send cold shivers down her spine, his eyes gaze hungrily as they roam through her naked body.Her skin felt tight, as if every nerve was standing on end, as his voice rumbled through the air. The goosebumps that had broken out across her skin ma
