The Bad Boy's Obsession 46|lost you
Brenda G___Did I suddenly die and go to hell? I don't understand how I ended up in the palace as a guest at Dulcie's wedding.When Gena said that her cousin was getting married, she forgot to fill me in on the details as to what her cousin's name was and the name of his bride-to-be. Had she informed me that Sam Juston was her cousin, then I would have declined her invitation. I would have remained in California.I had a horrible feeling from the moment I set foot at the airport. I knew that something wrong would happen during this trip but I couldn't comprehend what it was until now.I have to leave this place, I can't spend a night in this palace. Not when Jake, Harriet, and all the people who hate me, stay here. Wait, what the hell is Harriet even doing here? Isn't she supposed to be with Lance? I shouldn't be worried about petty issues, my major concern should be getting out of here as soon as possible.I paced back and forth in my new room, as thoughts on how to leave unnoticed r

Jake William.______"She gets shameless by the second. Look at how she's busy running around in the garden with him." Harriet's voice rang in my ears as I watched the most infuriating scene unfold.Brenda was playfully chasing Emilio in the garden as they laughed. The sight of her laughing with him made every last drop of blood in my body boil. I compressed the glass of liquor that was in my grip, shattering it into tiny shards. The shards of glass sliced through the flesh of my palms as the liquor seeped into my wounds."Jake, oh my god!" Harriet screamed while examining my bleeding hand. "I'll get a first aid kit." She rushed to my room.The amount of pain inflicted by the shards of glass was nothing compared to the pain inflicted by Brenda.How dare she think that she can be happy after causing me so much pain? How dare she live her life happily while my own life is a wreck? I won't let her live and breathe in peace. I will wipe away that smile from her face. I will make every wak

Brenda G____Few minutes beforeCountless butterflies were fluttering in the confines of my stomach as Emilio and I strolled to the ballroom. The red gown hugged every contour of curves, bringing out my feminine aspect.Emilio, whose arm I was tugging onto, was clad in a ritzy black tuxedo suit that matched his dress shoes. The black official blouse that he had worn, was strangled with a white bow tie at the collar. His neck-length hair was gelled backwards and tied in a low ponytail. He looked remarkably handsome."Keep staring at me like that and I will be compelled to do something unexpected." He leaned in and whispered. A small blush parched my cheeks. Then he drew my hand to his lips and left a peck on it. "By the way, have I told you just how gorgeous you look tonight?" He added.Another blush scorched my cheeks. Listening to his cheesy lines was easing the tension that had been clawing at me the entire time. The thought of seeing Jake at the event was eating at me. I was anxio

Brenda G_____"Wanna get out of here?" I whispered to Emilio. My heart was racing viciously in my chest. I was about to do something that would change everything between Emilio and me."Yes." He replied while smiling so sexily.His back collided with the bedroom wall as I pinned him to it. My lips were mercilessly devouring his. Savouring his delicious moans in the process. My fingers fumbled with his shirt buttons as his hands found the zip of my dress. My desire was heightened and it felt like I would burst from all the emotions that were bottled up inside of me.We broke off the kiss to gulp some air. "Well, I never saw this coming." Emilio teased breathlessly while sliding my dress off."Shut up before I change my mind," I ordered."Bossy, I like it." He hummed.I attacked his neck where I nibbled his tanned skin-sucking, licking, biting as he undressed.He hoisted me and the next thing I felt was my back hitting the fluffy bed. I was under his beastly frame, panting, and waiting

Brenda G____He sat behind a massive mahogany office table on a leather black seat. His back was leaned on the seat's backrest, his arms settled on each side of the armrest. His gaze settled on me as I took hesitant steps towards him.The cold heart-piercing gaze he gave had it all that he was not in for any nonsense. My Jake had grown. Seeing him that close after six years felt like a blessing. I missed him so much that I wanted to bury myself under his bulky chest.I wondered how he felt as I approached him, maybe hatred, pain, or disgust. Seeing Harriet in the palace and actually her being close to Jake, meant that she had fed him with lies. I didn't expect him to trust me, but the urge to tell him the whole truth was pushing me.I stopped right in front of the table. I didn't care to sit. His eyes averted from me and he rested them on the door.He held his hand up and began rubbing his sharp jawline. That made me explore his face, God, he had grown to be more handsome and manly.

Jake William____"It wasn't Brenda's fault. She was blackmailed by Lance and Harriet. They threatened to have her father killed if she didn't do as they asked."Dulcie's words replayed in my head as I tossed and turned in my bed, unable to grasp a vestige of sleep. The bed creaked under my weight as I shifted restlessly on it. Thoughts about Brenda's innocence devoured my mind.Could Dulcie be telling the truth? Was Brenda a victim this entire time? Is Harriet really working with Lance?If Brenda was innocent then it meant that I was wrong about her entire time. She didn't deserve any hatred that I had harboured towards her. I blamed her without hearing her side of the story.Guilt burrowed into my heart at the thought. I stared into the darkness of my room, trying to process everything. I raked my fingers through my hair as a frustrated groan erupted from my throat. Confusion stabbed my thoughts. I was confused on whether to believe Harriet or Dulcie's words about Brenda.Harriet an

Brenda G_____The joy that was coursing through me was boundless. Every cell in my body was bursting with happiness. The main reason for my happiness being the fact that I talked to Jake.He listened and trusted me.My heart drummed musically in the confines of my chest at the memory of his lips on mine. The way he claimed my lips had my stomach fluttering with moths. His lips tasted the same as six years ago. His scent did unimaginable things to me, just like it used to six years ago. The feel of his warm hands on my cheeks as he cupped my face had my knees weakening.Only he had the power to make me feel this way. Only he could make me smile even when all hope seemed lost. Gazing into his cerulean orbs drove comfort all over my initially tensed being. I was still in love with him more than ever."I love you, Jake William," I whispered while smilingly grazing my fingers on my sore lips as the memories of his lips on mine, replayed in my head. All of it felt like a dream, one that I d

Jake William------------Dulcie and Sam's wedding was finally here. The Saint James Cathedral, where the ceremony was to take place, was flocking with guests from all over the country. The ushers moved about the place, showing the guests to their seats. The church was a colossal structure with a pentagon shape. The ceiling was raised and painted white. Silver chandeliers dangled from it.The blanche walls were adorned with paintings of Mary, mother of Jesus among other religious symbols. Cool instrumental music was being played by the church orchestra, lighting up the mood. Generally, the ambience and architecture of the venue was spectacular.I was standing in the front of the church, besides Sam as his best man. He kept stealing impatient glances at the church doorway, waiting for his bride to walk through it. He was clad in a black tuxedo suit, a black bow tie, a white official shirt, and a pair of brown dress shoes that matched the colour of his dyed gelled hair. He looked except

The Bad Boy's Obsession 81|royal dinner
Brenda GSomething is wrong.I reached out to the glass of water beside the meal I had been busy pretending to be eating. Something in the food was not going well with my stomach. I could feel a gush of nausea churning down in my belly.I drank some water that pushed it down. I needed to focus and not ruin my composure at a royal dinner where everyone was busy enjoying the meal. I was the eye of the dinner, everyone kept glimpsing at me as though trying to see what I had to attract a royal prince.Beside me, Jake was busy devouring his meal, his one hand was gently rubbing my thigh while he used the free one to eat. I felt secure with him, he managed to ease my nerves ever since we arrived.Everyone was nice, I met Jake's mother who was average in height, beautiful, and always with a smile on her lips.

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. That I was an adopted child whose biological mother died at childbirth and whose father was unknown. Did my father even know abo
The Bad Boy's Obsession 79|his claim
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
The Bad Boy's Obsession 78|the end of trouble
Jake William"Take cover!" I spun Brenda around and then rushed with her to a hidden corner, somewhere in the room, the others followed."Finally! I thought that you'd never arrive." 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
The Bad Boy's Obsession 77|plan gone wrong
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
The Bad Boy's Obsession 76|royal trouble
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.

Brenda GHis question struck my ears like a bomb, leaving me paralyzed with shock. 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?" He repeated the question while gazing into my stupefied eyes. I couldn't bring myself to say, yes. Not when I was so close to winning, so close to rescuing my dad. Not whe
The Bad Boy's Obsession 74|unexpected proposal
Brenda GThe event was getting boring and Lance was busy with his guests. He had some guests he valued too much that he ended up letting me slip out of his arms. 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. "By the end of the night, we will know your father's location."Jake took my hands in his and then gave them an assuring squeeze. "I have my team of
The Bad Boy's Obsession 73|peaks of dyspathy
Brenda G"My love, you look gorgeous." His warm breath scorched my cheek as he whispered the words to me. 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
