Brenda G

I was hurt.

I couldn't bring myself to believe that I was falling for someone who always wanted to hurt me.

What drove him to hurt me this way? Was it revenge? If he wanted to hurt me, couldn't he have thought of something else?

Question after question bombarded my brain, intensifying my headache as sobs tore through my throat. Tears rolled down my cheeks as mucus sluiced from my nostrils. I was in a horrible state, I couldn't bring myself to face anyone after my reputation had been dragged through a pile of mud.

I had locked myself in the girl's bathroom, crying my eyes out as Sydney, Dulcie, and Sam, who were outside the room, tried to pacify me.

"Brenda... please come out." Dulcie pleaded while knocking on the bathroom door.

"Brenda, you can't cry in there alone, just open up!" Sydney added.

They continued begging whereas I continued crying.

Didn't the kiss mean anything to him? Why did he have to hurt me this way? He promised that he would never hurt me, so why did he bre

    Brenda G___ The scene had unfolded, and I was scared I couldn't stop what I started. I wished I never reprimanded Jake because a lot was now being said."Sam, don't tempt me!" Jake warned."Oh, I will, and so you know, I will stand for every ordinary person you think you are gonna hurt. And one is Brenda!" Sam growled while pointing at me."Go on then! punch me! because that's all you are good at. You are a loser who only knows how to fight and fuck around with girls. And Brenda happens to be your next conquest. Once you get in her pants, you'll toss her aside like you did all the others.""Shut up Jake!" Sam seethed."Why? Are you scared that she will leave you after finding out the truth? Oh, you can tell them about me being a mean royal prince and I am gonna tell them who you are. Should I name the girls? Hmm?" Jake added.Sam, who couldn't contain his anger anymore. He pounced on Jake and commenced throwing punches at his face. Jake gripped Sam's arms and pushed him to the groun

    Brenda G____I blinked my eyes open as a small yawn gushed from my mouth. I stretched my arms and lazily sat up on the comfortable mahogany bed. Instantly, the aroma of fried bacon infiltrated my nasal canals. The aroma was mixed with that of caffeine.A rumble tore through my intestines, at the delicious scent. A satisfactory smile tugged at my lips when my eyes landed on the boy who was slowly stealing my heart. He was in the kitchenette which was a small compartment across the room.His muscled shirtless back flexed deliciously as he danced to a song that he was listening to through his iPod while preparing some bacon. The simmering sound of the bacon accompanied by his hums created a perfect song that soothed my heart.I drew the silk-woven comforter to my nose and deeply inhaled his scent which was smeared all over it. I closed my eyes as I drowned in his scent. The memories of the previous evening replayed in my head. I recalled how he’d apologised for his misdeeds and promised

    Brenda G____The waves splashed across the sandy beach, depositing the pebbles from the ocean while porting some of the sand with it. The blue ocean waters shimmered under the intense rays of the morning sun. A strong breeze caressed the water, making it dance in waves that rushed to the beach.My bare feet sank on the sun-baked white coarse grains of sand as I padded along the beach. The coconut trees that bordered the ocean, swayed eerily in the breeze. The roaring of the waves, the whistling of the wind, the rattling of palm trees and the crunching of sand beneath my sole, resulted in a magical melody that soothed my being.“Do you like it?” Jake who was walking beside me, inquired.“Yes, it’s beautiful.” I marvelled.“Just like you.” He added.“Thank you for the compliment, my prince.” I blurted. “Now, can you please close your eyes while I strip?” I instructed.“Of course.” He smiled and then placed his hands in front of his eyes.“Don’t peek,” I warned.I got rid of my dress, r

    Brenda G_____Ever felt like you're the worst person on the planet? Well, that's me.I had a list of reasons to prove that I was indeed the worst person in the universe. The first reason being, I lied to my best friends Sam and Dulcie. The other day, during the whole Jake and me incident, I managed to cook up a convincing lie in order to explain why Jake and I were both naked in the water. Of course, I used the skinny diving story as an explanation. I could sense by the suspicious looks from Dulcie and Sam, that they weren't fully convinced but they chose to let it slide. Or didn't they?The second reason as to why I was the worst mundane is, I nearly had sex with my best friend's crush. I clearly knew that Cara had feelings for Jake but despite that, I shamelessly fell for him. What's worse is that I nearly had sex with him. What was I thinking? Just how horny was I? Wait, did Jake lace the slices of bacon with horny pills? Was that why I wanted to have sex with him?The memory of t

    Brenda G____After my secret meeting with Jake, I scurried to the cafeteria where the girls were impatiently waiting for me. They were halfway through with their food when I arrived."Look who finally decided to show up, twenty minutes later," Dulcie exclaimed while scooping some spaghetti with her fork."I'm sorry the Chemistry professor was giving us a lot of instructions regarding the assignment." I sat beside Dulcie. Cara and Sydney were seated on the opposite side of the table. I placed my tray of beef stew and rice on the table.It was then that I realized that Dulcie had already bought me lunch. She had been buying me lunch for the past two days and honestly, I don't like being a burden to anyone. That's why I decided to buy my own lunch."Brenda, why did you buy lunch when I clearly told you-" Dulcie started lamenting but I cut her off."Dulc, I have told you countless times that I am okay with buying my own lunch. You don't have to keep doing it for me.""But I want to. You

    Jake William____"I want you to find him and arrest him immediately inspector!" I thundered over the phone then hung up.Fury was surging through every nerve of my body. The sight of the man, Lance, hovering over Brenda, made blood boil in my veins. The lustful look in his eyes as he touched her inappropriately drove me mad with anger. What broke me more was the fact that Brenda was hurting.He will pay for hurting her.I declared while sitting on Brenda's bed where she was sleeping. I switched off the bedside lamp and slid under the warm bed covers. I drew her body to mine and gently caressed her back as I showered pecks on her forehead.The broken look in her eyes ate me up from the inside. I had never seen her so traumatized and scared. I have always known her as a fighter, a girl who doesn't shy from speaking her mind, and most of all, a kind soul. But Lance took that away from her. He broke her spirit. He hurt her."No, p-lease don't " Words shot out of her mouth and almost imme

    Brenda G____I woke up entangled in Jake's arms. My head was resting on his chest. His chest rose and fell in a soothing pattern as he slumbered.I tilted my head in an attempt to have a better view of his face. Tranquillity had covered his handsome face. His closed eyelids, crescent-shaped eyebrows, thick nose with a pointed tip, and his baby-pink supple lips were a sight to behold.The bright rays of the sun bathed his tousled blonde locks of hair, augmenting his handsomeness. I raked my petite digits through his ruffled hair, smilingly. The memories of the intimate moment that he and I shared meandered in my mind.He made love to me so sweetly. I couldn't get enough of his lips on my naked skin as he kissed me. The memory of his lips interlocking with mine crowded my brain. The feel of my nipples between the seam of his lips as he sucked them agonizingly slowly made me cry out his name. And then, the moment he sank his length into me, breaking my barriers and exploring my walls, h

    Brenda G____Jake, please don't kiss her. Please.I inwardly prayed with my eyes closed. Then all of a sudden, I felt my body being hoisted off the ground. My eyes bulged upon noticing that I was cradled in his arms. Everyone's attention was on us. "J-jake-what-" I couldn't form a proper phrase."Jake, what's going on?" Cara inquired. "What are you doing?""I am doing what I have been yearning to do in front of everyone." He smashed his lips on mine and gently kissed my lips. It was a brief, sweet kiss. I was too shocked and embarrassed to speak."What The Fuck!" Cara yelled."Are you guys in a relationship?" Syd inquired."Yes." Jake simply replied."I knew it! I knew it!" Sam gritted.Jake let me on my feet then encircled his arm on my waist."Since when?" Cara seethed. Her face was red with anger. "You knew too well that I have feelings for Jake and yet you went ahead and wooed him! How could you Brenda?""Cara, I am sorry -I." I tried to explain."You know what, you are a shamele

    Brenda GThe cold morning breeze nipped my skin, triggering goosebumps that swam all over my exposed flesh. I drew the shawl against my semi-naked body, in an attempt to generate some heat and hopefully snuff out the cold.The golden specks of the rising sun bathed my skin, replacing the cold with warmth. A smile curved on my lips as I watched the yellow ball of energy emerge beyond the horizon, splashing its rays on the azure ocean waters. It was the most magnificent view.We arrived at a beach house which was one of Jake's private properties. He mentioned it would be a good idea to lay low for a while together with my father and I agreed.Fresh morning air seeped through my nose, gushing into my lungs as I took a deep breath. Melodious chirps of birds and insects caressed my ears, soothing my soul.For a moment I was able to forget about the painful truth.

    Brenda GSeeing my dad again, after so many months, was the most joyous feeling for me. I couldn't stop hugging and sobbing on his shoulder as he soothed me lovingly in his arms."Dad-I am so sorry. It's because of me that you had to go through so much pain and torment." I cupped his bandaged face in my palms as tears cascaded down my cheeks."None of this is your fault. Lance and Melissa are to blame." He replied. "I should have never trusted that woman." Regret filled his eyes. "A woman as horrible as her deserves to be punished for her wrongs. Your mother entrusted her with you-" He paused after realising that he had blurted something."Is there something you're not telling me?" I dug for answers."No child, I don't want you to find out the truth this way-" He avoided eye contact."What truth? Please tell me, dad." A plea left my mouth."Brenda, it's the truth about your real mother." He spoke."Real mother? Isn't Melissa my mother?" I stuttered."No, she's not. Brenda, you are our

Harriet declared as the guards untied her and Melisa. "Kill them all!" Harriet barked as she and Melissa ran off. . It was an open fire as Lance's goons shot at us and we attempted to shield ourselves with furniture."They are too many, what do we do?" Emilio shot a question at me."We need to team up and fight them off." I prompted."No, Jake, it's dangerous." Brenda protested. "We don't have enough weapons to fight them off." She added."We can't hide here knowing they are approaching us," I whispered as I checked the bullets remaining in the gun.Death was lurking in the dimly lit room like a shadow waiting to devour each and every one of us. Lance's men were turning the place inside out, trying to find us. "Come

    Jake WilliamI knew saving Brenda's dad would be hard but I never inferred that it would be challenging.We had everything planned out. Things were falling into place. Thanks to Adrian, we had Brenda's dad's location. I sent the coordinates to the agents, informing them of the retrieval. It was a delicate mission. It's why I deployed skilled agents to perform the task. I was certain that It would work-that they would find Mr. Hammond and save him. To my disappointment, Lance was a step ahead of us. He managed to outsmart us.His new plan was about my royalty status. He planned to get me involved in a scandal all over the media.I was not gonna give up though, I had to fight for Brenda and her friends.I was busy plotting a plan as Lance's men dragged us towards our doom. There were five men in total and all of them were armed. Even if I attacked, I couldn't manage to eliminate all five of them."Hey, I need to go to the bath

    Brenda G"It's me." The voice which was none other than Adrian's spoke. I could feel the coldness of his rings pressing the flesh of my mouth. "Come with me." He took my hand and led me to the unknown."Where are we going, Adrian?" Curiosity got the better of me."To your friends." He replied. "They asked me to fetch you." He added.A door was pushed open, to reveal a dimly lit room, "Where is this place?" I shot a question at him as soon as I walked in."It's an old guest room, no one comes here anymore." He replied."Where are they?" My eyes were scanning the place but couldn't spot anyone."Patience." I watched as he typed some numbers on a keypad that was engraved on a wall. A door creaked open -revealing a secret room."After you." He paved the way for me and I waltzed into a study room. Jake, Gena and Emilio were conversing when we walked in."Bree." Gena excitedly stated upon seeing me.

No words could come out of my mouth as I stared at the man who was on his knee with an expectant look in his eyes. My heart stilled in its cage, unable to beat.The temperature of my body dropped, triggering shivers that crawled down my spine. A mixture of emotions coursed through my being, shock being the main feeling.Why did he propose tonight? Wasn't the engagement supposed to be after a week?Questions swam through my brain, triggering confusion that ate at me mercilessly.Did he do this on purpose? To trap me? Does he perhaps know about my plan to ruin him?I couldn't find the answers to questions that were burrowing through my brain."Will you marry me?"

Which was good because I was free to at least go and breathe.My gaze settled on Jake, Gena and Emilio who were conversing among themselves. "Excuse me," I said to one of the guests whom I was talking to and made my way to the three. "Hey." They shifted their attention to me."Bree." Gena gazed at me."Can we go somewhere more private?" I proposed. The four of us scurried to an isolated kitchen away from the party."I am nervous, is everything set?" I inquired while gazing at the three."Yes. Everything is set. All that is remaining is to get a call but our plan B is still on move. " Emilio explained.

My stomach flipped with disgust at his words, brewing nausea which threatened to rip my gut apart.The feel of his lips on my cheek triggered goosebumps of antipathy which swam all over my skin. His very presence, touch, scent drove me to the peaks of dyspathy. I desiderated to tear his hand from my waist and erase his touch from my skin because everything about him ailed me to the core."Thank you, my love." The words scorched my throat like acid as they erupted from my mouth. A smile made its way to my lips as I glanced at his form. He was clad in a black six-piece suit that hugged his rotund frame, accentuating his potbelly. Grey hairs matted his chin -an indication of his ripe age. His pair of silvery irises, interlocked with mine for a moment. An icy sensation crawled down my spine as his eyes stared into mine. It felt like he was trying to u
