2024-12-04 00:23:40AVERY’s POV
(INAUDIBLE CHATTERING)
I stood in front of the classroom writing on the board but I was getting frustrated by the noise.
‘I am getting tired! Lord, give me some strength’
I whispered under my breath.
I turned around and stared at them and shook my head.
“Okay, class here is the deal either y’all zip it or I deduct 20 marks from everyone's test”
They immediately kept quiet and I nodded with fulfilment.
“That was what I thought”
I smirked, turned around, and continued writing notes on the blackboard. It was never my dream to be a high school English teacher but for a 27-year-old orphan and single mother, life did not provide me with many choices.
The bell rang and I was the happiest. Yes! I hate my job.
One of my students walked up to me, she held my hands and smiled faintly.
“Miss Avery, I can't wait to see you tomorrow, Bye!”
She ran off after saying that and I just stared in awe.
Well, if there was one thing I was proud of, it was the fact that I made a name for myself among the students, and of course, I enjoyed the attention too. Though I know that a lot of the other teachers hated me for that.
I sat on my chair and I had to grade some tests and prepare for Monday’s papers.
“Mummy, mummy, mummy!”
I turned around with a fat smile on my face and looked at my bundle of joy, Logan. When I first gave birth to him I admit that I disliked him with passion and blamed him for everything wrong in my life but it was never his fault. His father who left me for another woman when I blindly trusted him was to be blamed.
“Logan, who brought you here? And what are you holding?”
“Aunt Camila. And she bought me this red wristwatch”
I looked at the watch and it was green, not red.
I nodded and smiled at him. Logan had color blindness so it was pretty hard for him.
“Hey, Girlfriend are you ready to go?”
My best friend Camila popped out from the side of the door and grinned at me.
Logan ran outside the classroom and I knew he was going to the next class to show his watch. They were very fond of him.
“Camila, thank you for picking up Logan. I have been so busy!”
“You need to at least make some time for him, Avery. When was the last time you picked him up from school yourself?”
“You know how busy I have always been, right? And he is a big boy. He should be able to take care of himself sometimes, right? The world isn't rosy, Camila”
“Avery, stop blaming your son for your hardships, alright? The poor boy is just 5 years old but his mother thinks he is big enough to take care of himself! Come on, Avery”
“Fine, maybe that was wrong, and mind you I do not blame Logan for any of my hardships, okay? Are you ready to go? I am starving!”
Camila stood for about a minute staring into my face like she was searching for answers.
“Yes, let us go”
She looked at me from head to toe and finally broke the silence.
“What was that look for? Come on Camila! You are his tutor, right? So you should be responsible for him at times too”
“I am his tutor, not his nanny, and mind you, I don't remember collecting any payment from you, so do not try to feel too big”
We both stared at each other for a few seconds before chuckling loudly.
We walked outside and Logan joined us.
“Bye, Logan”
Karen forcefully smiled at me and waved at Logan.
“Bye Karen, see you tomorrow”
I turned around then I glimpsed back at her.
“That fucking bitch!”
“What is a bitch, Mummy?”
I quickly covered Logan’s mouth and Camila stared at me. I clenched my jaw and hid my gaze from hers.
“Let us go, Logan”
She pulled him away from my arms and I followed behind them.
When we got outside the school I saw my principal but before I could run away he saw me.
“Avery, can I have a minute?”
“I see your crush is still active”
Camila whispered to me and I had to control my laughter.
‘This old hag, what does he want!’
I whispered carefully while I walked towards him.
“Hello, Mr. Scofield.. How is it going”
“I am having a house opening party today. I invited all the teachers I want you to also attend!”
‘In your wildest dream, Dickhead!’
I said to myself in my head. I always have the wildest thoughts and imaginations in my head.
“Party? I would have loved to come, sir..”
“But? There is always a ‘but’ with you, Avery. Hey, I am only making it easy in this school for you because of what happened to your parents and the fact that I have a soft spot in my heart for you, but you are beginning to take it for granted, woman!”
‘I see.. So this is about the fact that I refused his marriage proposal? How am I supposed to get married to a man who is old enough to be my father and has 5 kids?!’
“With all due respect, sir. Never speak about my parents in such a manner and I never asked for your pity!”
I turned around, walked up to Camila, held my son’s hand and we got into Camila’s car. On our way back to my house I flashed back on how my parents were both shot right in front of me. It is a miracle that I am still alive.
When we got to the house I stared at the neighborhood and how clean the street looked. That is what you get when you stay on one of the richest streets in Las Vegas, Enclave Highland.
Oh, the house was given to me by an unknown person and I accepted it with open hands.
A convoy of 3 cars followed by a truck parked right opposite me and I squinted my eyes to see who it was.
“Hey, you! What are you looking at?!”
A voice came from behind me.

AVERY’s POVI quickly turned around and held Logan’s hand. Two guys in black hoods shoved a knife in my face in the broad daylight! That made it even more epic.“I am standing in front of my house. I should be asking you who you are”“We will be back for you, watch your back”They ran off and I swear I was as confused as I was stunned.“Mummy, see”Logan pointed to the guys in the car and we turned around.2 men came down from each of the cars while 3 came down from the truck.Camila, Logan, and I kept staring at these men as they offloaded the truck. They brought out furniture wrapped in transparent nylons and took it into the apartment opposite mine. Home gadgets and the like.“Mummy, are we finally getting a neighbor?”“I guess so, son”I sighed and whispered to Logan with a little smile. We walked into the house and I immediately walked to the kitchen. There was this joy that always filled my heart whenever I was home. I was still confused about what had happened earlier but I d

I quickly looked at the person‘s face and it was my principal, Mr Scofield.“What was that? You almost killed me!”“Yes, and I am not done! Come here!”He grabbed my legs and pulled me to the bed. I was screaming for help but the music downstairs was too loud.“You fuvking bitch! You think you are so special! I will show you that you are nothing but a__”We heard footsteps approaching the room and I screamed even louder.“Shut up! If you say a word I will make yours and your son’s life miserable!”The door opened and a man stepped inside. “Did I hear someone scream?”I was on my feet and Mr Scofield had run into the shower.“No, I almost slipped.

AVERY’s POVWhen I woke up I had severe body pains and my eyes were heavy.“Oh, my God my head is going to fall! What happened?”I removed the sheets from my body and immediately I saw my naked body. I flinched and put my hand over my hand. I quickly remembered my time with Axell. How I followed him to his house got drunk and begged him to fuck me. I almost ran mad just thinking about it“No way, No way, No way! Oh, God, please!”I quickly jumped up from the bed, put on my clothes, and when I looked on the shelf next to me there was a little note with my name on it. I quickly grabbed it and checked for the content inside.“Thanks for last night, Sweet Avery”I fell to the ground and almost shed tears. “He gotta be joking! Sweet, Avery?!!! That is all? What does he mean thanks for last night like he had sex with a slut! He had his way with me and just left? Oh, no”I ran out of the building, and there was no one else. I saw my car parked in front of the gate. I quickly got in and drov

I told him not to kill you just yet because I want to kill you myself, slow and painful”“Paolo, aren't you tired?”Bryson yelled.The masked guy punched Bryson in his eyes hard and he fell to the ground.“Like I was saying. I want to watch you die just like I watched your parents, and I will. Ah, how I hate the sight of you”I looked to my side and saw one of my guards walking down the stairs. I tried giving him a signal to go back but he wasn't looking.“Hey, boss I heard—”Before he could say anything they shot him twice in the head.“Fuck! Paolo stop your men! It is me you want!”“One m

AVERY’s POVHe stood there staring at me like he was daft. He is the last person I expected to see in my house, especially not at a time like this! I looked tattered and injured. I hated the fact my son had to see all that. I moved close to him and yanked Logan away from him.“I ask again, what are you doing in my house?!”I exclaimed angrily.“Mummy, why are you bleeding? Is something wrong with you?”Logan asked but I quickly covered his mouth with my hands. My principal, Mr Scofield stood there staring at me with his eyes wide open. He looked like if he had the opportunity he would devour me right in front of my son. What did he want? I told him I was not going to tell anybody about what happened at his party so why was he in my house in the middle of the night? This is so crazy, and the fact I was alone. Heaven knows where Camila went!“I came to apologize to you, Avery. I guess I wronged you. I should never have done that to you earlier. I am sorry about that. Please, forgive me

AVERY’s POVAfter the drama of last night, I was ready for work in the morning but I had to go to the hospital first to treat my wounds and have them bandaged. Camila and Logan were both ready, and she promised to drop me off at the hospital first, and then I would take a cab to the school.When we got out of the house I noticed the building gate opposite mine was open. I mean I remember seeing some men putting some things in it but I had no idea someone had packed in. “Mummy, let us go. What are you waiting for?”Logan pulled my skirt and I flinched because I was deep in thought about my new neighbor. It has always been a quiet neighborhood so I don't want a troublesome person ruining it. “Fine, and why are you so eager to go today, Logan?”I asked him and he just smirked. He wore his sportswear so I remembered it was sporty in his school. I was always more than grateful that Camila teaches in his school. She always watched over him. Before we got into the car I saw I knew. AXELL

AVERY’s POVWhen our eyes met, he smirked, but I tried avoiding him.“Nurse, will you, please, take a look at my wound? I need them treated, please”I said to the nurse who didn't even bother to look at my face. Her eyes were glued on Axell who came and stood beside me.“Mr Axell,” the nurse with a rather calm and soft voice said “I have been waiting for you, sir. How are you doing? You look very good to me”I looked at her and how she was acting. She was smiling and it was so obvious that she was into Axell who just stood there without saying a word.“Did I keep you waiting? I am so sorry I ran into a little traffic”He touched the nurse’s hand and they both giggled. That was so disgusting and he openly teased her which made it even more annoying because I regretted the fact I was there to witness that. “Fine, nurse, if you won't treat me then I will go to another hospital, thank you”When I turned around to leave Axell held one of my hands, and I got so angry, because why did he th

AVERY’s POVI moved close to the CEO, Axell’s door, and I tried peeking through to see what was going on inside his office, but I could not see clearly. The sound was a bit loud and I did not want to conclude it was what I thought it was, because why would he bring a woman to have sex with in his place of work? “What are you looking at?!”A loud voice came from behind me. When I turned around it was the principal, and he looked furious as hell. His gray and black hair was neatly combed to the back, and he wore a tuxedo like he was going to attend a wedding ceremony or something.“Hello, sir. I.. I was just.. I thought I heard something.. I mean. You called for me, right?”I was speechless and my voice cracked. The words were there, but they felt stuck in my throat.“Yes, I asked for you to come into my office, not stare into the CEO’s office! Do you know he hates being disturbed? I feel you have gotten a job elsewhere with how you have been operating lately”“No!!! No, sir, please”

You don't know what we got, yes?” “Logan, how bout you both tell me what you got, yes?” He smiled and looked at Camila. “Fine, Logan, give me some drum rolls..” She placed the bags on the table and then; “TADA!!! Look what we got for you mummyyyy!!! Ahhhh!!!” Logan screamed and I was forced to stand up. I dragged the package off Camila’s hands and it was a. Dress. A Dress? “A dress? Camila, why would you get me a dress? For what?” I was getting all emotional. I have always been the soft type, so things easily get to me. “Why don't you put it on first, and then I might answer your question, huh?” Logan was jumping out of happiness. “Camila..” “Put it on” “I will wait outside mummy, but call me once you are done, alright?” He said and ran outside the room with his tiny hands flying in the air.

Do I have more chances than that bastard?” He exclaimed, his voice cold. “Well, the votes will determine that, but for now I have my doubts about you winning” “Why? Tell me why! I will kill anyone who is against my reign” “Easy now tiger, easy. The Don Corleone holds the final say. And I am sure you know by now that he hates your guts, right? So why not lay low for a while and not cause any more trouble, huh?” He growled on the phone and I could picture his cold arrogant eyes in his voice. “Fine, I will wait. I was planning on going for a little vacation. To visit an old friend, but I guess that will be after the votes” “I can assume who that ‘friend’ is.

I would like to say that this is a trivial matter and should not be given so much attention. It is simple. We pass on the family to the next candidate, and he will do the job” “Shut your mouth! I see he has bought you too, right?” Another person screamed and they all began to raise their voices at each other. “That is enough!

They all did too, and bowed their heads. “Showing respect is not only by bowing down your heads to me, but also by giving me some accords and regards.

CAMILA’s POV I kept calling Avery’s line, but she never answered. I was sweating nonstop, and I just hoped that he would leave. He could see me, I mean my glass is not tinted. He pulled the mask off his face, and I was mesmerized by how good he looked. Oh, my God, he was an angel. He had ear piercings and used studs. He had piercing green eyes. More like ocean eyes. Wait, Camila. Simply because he looks good does not mean he is a good person. Do not be fooled. I joined both hands together and begged him to go away from inside the car. He looked a little bit hurt, and then he walked away to the other side of the road and stood there. I watched him wave at him, and carefully I came out from the car and stood there staring at him. “Hello, my name is Bryson. Nice to meet you” He screamed and I was stunned by his confidence. It was midnight and he was screaming just so I would hear him. I waved at him, without saying a word back. “I am your neighbor” He pointed at the

CAMILA’s POV Of course, Avery warned me about coming to see Travis, but I didn't listen. Do I regret it, yes, and now I just want to go home. I stood up from the bed, paced around the room for a few minutes then I concluded to leave not minding the time. I had my car, so all I had to do was drive, right? So I thought to myself before I barged out of the room. I saw Travis sitting on the couch downstairs with his belt in his hands. He wore only pants and was shirtless. I had to control myself from looking at his body while walking down the stairs. “And where are you off to by this time of the night?” “I am going back to my house” I said without slowing down. I kept walking to the door without looking at him or stopping. “Your house? Do you have one? Oh, you mean your friend’s mysterious house, right? You know I still doubt the tale you told me about that house. Still sounds like a fantasy story” When I got to the door I pulled it but noticed it was locked with the ke

AVERY’s POV Logan pointed at Axell who kept on smiling at him. “What? You must be tired, Logan. Come on” I rolled my eyes at Axell then I pulled Logan back into the house, and placed him on the bed for a little nap. I peeked through the window to see if they had left, and surprisingly they were still there. Axell was still peeking and he caught my eyes. He chuckled and I quickly shut the window and then used the curtains also. LUCRECIA’s POV Where did she put it? This woman will be the end of me! I told her not to take it away from where I put it, but of course, she had to act like the most caring woman on earth. Where was she when I needed her the most? And now she suddenly cares. I moved to her room and saw her kneeling. She was praying, and I had to respect that. When she stood up, I quickly tapped her shoulders. “Are you done? Now where is my passport, and I am not joking!” “Why are you trying to ruin your life, my child?” “Don’t ever call me that! I am not

AXELL’s POV Bryson and I stood in silence for a few minutes before he finally spoke up. “Wait, you think she is married?” “You think she is not?” “I mean why would she allow another man to go down on her if got a husband?” “I mean you know all these females can be crazy as hell. I will go crazy if she has another man. All these work, all those years” “How about the plan you had? Is it coming together?” “I don't know if I will be able to pull it off at this point, man” “I am sure you can, okay? Come on you have been planning on doing this for a while now” “Well, that was before this discovery. For all I know she might have a dude somewhere” “Hey, only one way to find out” “How?” “Go ahead with the plan. That is the only way you will know for sure” “What if she doesn't come? What then?” “You are the CEO of the school. Come on take a stand man” AVERY’s POV When we got back into the house I threw my bag on the couch, then I rushed to the kitchen to get a

AXELL’s POV Ah, the shock on her face when I said that to her was so pleasing to watch. She was more than surprised that I, the man who she hated, was not only her boss but also her neighbor. We stood in front of her house without saying anything to each other. She was probably fighting with her thoughts on what to say. “You? How.. How are you here? How is that your house? When did you even have the time to move here? Are you kidding me?” Her confusion was more than pleasing to watch, and I enjoyed it. “Well, my men have been working on this place for weeks now, and they are done. So, here I am” I gave my charming smile to her, but she didn't think anything was funny at that point. She glared at me like she suspected I was planning something. I mean I am planning something, but she doesn't know that. She didn't have to know it. “Are you following me? Why in God’s name are you suddenly my boss and owner of the school I work at and the next week you are my neighbor? D
THE OBSESSED AND PSYCHOPATHIC NEIGHBOR Neighbors?
AVERY’s POV As I stepped into the car and sat down I was enveloped in a new world. The cabin was trimmed in rich white leather. The dashboard was a masterpiece of modern design, with a massive touchscreen display and a sleek, flat-bottomed steering wheel. The seats were incredibly comfortable and I felt so relaxed, but I was immediately drawn back to reality, and I remembered what he said when I got in. I wasn't quite sure what he meant by ‘he got me now’ but I tried hard not to stare at him. I was so quiet I almost stopped breathing. His car smelled and looked expensive. It felt as if I was part of a royal family. I am sure it cost an arm and a leg to get such a car. He drove without uttering a word, and I liked that. He did not ask for directions, so I was forced to speak. “I hate to break the silent party, but you do not know where I live. You can drop me off at the next bus stop I will take a taxi” He chuckled and then turned on the radio. I felt so disrespected a
